Chapter 2 — I'm A Little Sister But My Whole Family Is The Big Boss

I coughed softly and comforted: "It's... not too miserable, dad..." "Huh." Pho Duc suddenly snorted coldly, "Of course it's not miserable. The Co family raised you like a young lady. Maybe when there's no other way, you'll come back." My father froze, turned to look at me: "Dear daughter... do you really not want to go back?" My mother's eyes also looked over with worry. I glared at Pho Duc. This guy is my twin brother, the type who specializes in ruining the matter of claiming ancestors. “No way.” I shook my head and honestly said: "Anywhere good is not as good as home." My father burst into tears again, then my mother dragged him into the kitchen to cook rice. My three brothers and I — eldest brother, second brother, third brother — sat face to face. “It's okay, you don't need to act in front of us anymore.” Pho Duc finally opened his mouth, lazily leaned against the back of the chair, looked at me and said, "Previously, Co Tam said she refused to come back, and even sent her away, so what? Now that the Co family kicked her out, she's willing to come back?" “Pho Duc.” Pho Nghiem frowned, his cold voice carrying a bit of unhappiness. Pho Duc was still upset, frowning at me, his eyes full of disgust: "It's true! This Co Vi girl is pretending to be obedient! Don't you realize it?" “Third brother.” I spoke up and reminded, "My name is Pho Vi." “Hmm, don't think you—” “Pho Duc.” Pho Luat glanced over, the lenses of his glasses reflected the light, his smile disappeared: "Go away if you're uncomfortable." The atmosphere immediately fell silent. Pho Duc was crushed and lay still. I blinked and looked at Pho Luat, I understood - this is the golden thigh that needs to be hugged tightly! I smiled sweetly: “Thank you~” “It's okay, we're family.” Pho Luat's big hand rubbed my head, just right, his eyes behind the glasses revealed a bit of warmth. “Vi Vi is about to start school, right?” Pho Nghiem suddenly asked. I was stunned — what a difficult problem. Logically, I was about to enter college in my first year, and the Co family had previously arranged for me to enter a private aristocratic university. If you want to enter Wells University, you must come from a rich and powerful family, which is where the family trains successors. But now I'm just a wealthy person, not to mention the qualifications to attend school, I probably can't afford the tuition alone. "What's wrong?" Pho Nghiem gave me a glass of water and his pale pink nails were neatly trimmed. I took a sip and hesitantly opened my mouth: "Eldest brother, second brother... can you come with me to change my study records in a few days?" “Why do I need to change my profile?” Pho Luat pushed up his glasses: "Vi Nhi Tu is fine." Both Pho Luat and Pho Nghiem simultaneously looked at me with wonder. I: "???" “It's not a matter of being able to or not being able to…” I was speechless, and for a moment I didn't know how to express the truth - our family is poor, we don't have money to pay tuition. “If you don't plan to major in business, Wells University still has other majors, you can apply to transfer departments.” Pho Nghiem next to him promptly gave suggestions. Me: “…” Thinking for a long time, I finally opened my mouth: “Actually now… I am just like you guys, the type of student who takes exams from a small town…” Pho Luat and Pho Nghiem fell silent at the same time. “Furthermore, Wells University tuition… is very expensive.” I've hinted at this point, Pho Luat probably understands, he smiled his standard smile again, the corners of his lips curled up faintly. “Pho Duc also studied at Wells.” I: "???" Unable to help myself, I turned my head to look at Pho Duc - he was still glaring at me with bored, disdainful eyes. I put my hand on my forehead, my heart filled with pain: This son of a bitch! Looks like I can't rest assured "letting go of life"... I still have to think of a way to make money at the Pho family. Pho Nghiem patted my shoulder and comforted me: "It's okay, selling ten sheep is enough to pay for school." My eyebrows immediately furrowed into a rope: "In the barn... there are only ten sheep..." It's not so much that I have to sell all my assets to go to school, right?! Pho Luat laughed softly, the corner of his lips curled higher: "Those ten are sheep breeds, they cannot be sold." I blinked a few times, a bit confused, still not quite understanding the logic of this house. Pho Luat reluctantly pulled me closer to the window and pointed out: "See those hills in the distance?" "Yes." “It belongs to my family.” I: "???" “See those speckled white spots on the hillside?” "Yes." "They're all sheep. They belong to our family." I: "???" 5 For several days, I was in a state of confusion, not knowing whether I was living a real life or acting in a movie. I can't tell the difference anymore - is it the Co family that owns a large corporation that is rich, or is it the Pho family that raises sheep and occupies an entire mountain that really has money? So am I... a real genius, or a fake genius? First day of admission. As soon as Pho Luat and Pho Nghiem took me to the gate of the house, I stopped them. After all, the story of me leaving the Co family had caused a stir throughout the capital, and now that a lawyer and a doctor were involved, I was afraid it would not be good for the two brothers' jobs. "I've already transferred some pocket money to your account, just let me know if you need anything." Deputy Luat gave me my suitcase. I looked at the seven-figure amount that had just entered my account and nodded silently. "If there's anything difficult at school, just look for Pho Duc. If he doesn't help, I'll go tell you." Pho Nghiem added: I still obediently nodded repeatedly. “So we won't send you in anymore.” Pho Luat smiled gently and was polite. Not long after returning to Pho's house, I felt like I couldn't bear to leave my two handsome and warm brothers... I stood still, pursed my lips, blinked. A soft laugh suddenly sounded above his head. I looked up - it was my second brother Pho Nghiem. It was rare to see him curl his eyes and smile. He even reached out and pinched my cheek: "I'll come pick you up this weekend." "Yes!" Although Wells is a noble university, the dormitory is still a four-person room, just a bit more spacious and decorated. How should I say it, fate is truly magical. I glanced at the person in the opposite bed and smiled: "Co Tam, what a coincidence." Fake - real money sharing the same dorm room? This is the level of "fighting" like a TV show. Co Tam still maintained her shy appearance, glanced at me and immediately bowed her head, mumbling a greeting, looking harmless. “Co Vi… no, I should call you Pho Vi now.” An arrogant voice rang out, the girl next to me in the bed walked over and glanced at me sarcastically: "Are you going to Wells College of Business? After graduating, you'll come back and inherit... your family's ten sheep?" Speaking of which, this girl is my close junior from the noble school - Tien Noan Noan. The Tien family clings to the Co family's skirt, and she has extracted a lot of benefits from me. Now I turn 180 degrees, gloating that I "lost". Inherit ten sheep? I smiled faintly, my eyes as cold as ice - It seemed to be because Co Tam... couldn't keep her mouth shut. “Warm, don't say that.” Co Tam stepped up and pulled Tien Noan Noan's sleeve, lowered her eyes, her voice softened: "Vi Vi is already suffering a lot now, it's my fault to her..." I waved my hand: "Don't call me Vi Vi. My last name is Pho." Suddenly I felt funny again. I looked at Co Tam with slightly pitying eyes. The Pho family has always believed in one principle: poor raise children, rich become father. So the Pho family, before growing up, lived a very miserable life, everyone thought like Co Tam - that living in the countryside, raising ten sheep was enough. It seemed like he had escaped suffering, but who would have thought - Co Tam did not hesitate to return to the Co family, but as a result, did not receive any benefits from the Pho family. It's a real tragedy. I sighed and began to spread the bed sheets. Tien Noan Noan glanced at me and evaluated me, then laughed contemptuously: "Wearing all the clothes from the market, don't you feel embarrassed?" My eyes suddenly fell in front of my wardrobe, falling into contemplation. Even though there was no logo, these clothes were custom-made by my father from a high-end design studio. They all used luxury silk and cashmere fabrics, the shape was perfect, and they were even more comfortable to wear than the designer clothes the Co family had previously prepared for me. Today is the first day, I don't want to argue, just quietly pack up my things. "Warm, don't be like that..." Co Tam quickly stopped Tien Noan Noan, then turned to look at me, hesitantly said, "Vi Vi, no, Pho Vi, my clothes... you can wear them." I calmly replied: "No need." “Huh, Tam Tam, don't pay attention to her.” Tien Noan Nuan turned her head contemptuously: "She's just feeling guilty for taking your position all these years." “It's so noisy.” A clear female voice rang out from the door, followed immediately by the sound of high heels clicking. It's Trieu Mat - the genius of the Trieu family, a group even more notorious than the Co family. Sure enough, all she had to do was open her mouth and the whole dorm room immediately fell silent. I continued to leisurely hang things in the closet, this had nothing to do with me. 6 Wells University's welcoming party for new students takes place at six o'clock in the evening. It's now half past five, I'm standing in front of a closet full of everyday clothes, dumbfounded. Why didn't my father think of ordering one or two suits for me? Or... just don't leave and be done with it? The door opened, the sound of high heels clicking echoed, then stopped right in front of me. “Haven't left yet?” Trieu Mat adjusted her curly hair and tilted her head to look at me. “Wait a minute.” She glanced at my empty closet and laughed coldly as if saying to herself: "I wonder why you still go to Wells like this."
