What to Do If I Become the Villain's Daughter

Golden September.

The fragrance of osmanthus wafted in waves as the north wind blew towards the distance. The summer heat lingered, but the morning breeze already carried a hint of coolness.

The sun still shone brightly, but its light cast on the walls had turned pale. Autumn had stripped away summer's passion, calming the restlessness in people's hearts.

Huo Guining officially became a middle school student.

As with every previous school start, Huo Xiaozheng personally escorted her to school.

Fortunately, Huo Guining was tall for her age, so she didn't stand out too much among the group of middle schoolers.

The middle school section was only separated from her former elementary section by a playground, so Huo Guining didn't feel out of place.

After Huo Xiaozheng left, the homeroom teacher entered the classroom, introduced Huo Guining with emphasis, and urged everyone to take good care of the young girl.

The classmates widened their eyes in surprise, their gazes a mix of astonishment and care.

In the unfamiliar environment, Huo Guining was slow to warm up.

After politely introducing herself, she sat up straight with a serious expression.

Seeing her aloof demeanor, her classmates didn't actively approach her.

Huo Guining didn't seem to mind this.

Lion's art exhibition was set to begin its tour next month, so she planned to complete her schoolwork in class and devote herself wholeheartedly to painting during her free time.

When the results of the placement test were announced soon after, Huo Guining secured the top position.

The homeroom teacher asked her to share her study methods with the class.

Huo Guining didn't hold back. After sharing her usual study tips, she concluded, "Actually, I've already gone through the middle school curriculum during the summer vacation with the help of a tutor."

"So, the current courses are not learning for me, but review."

"You can try this method too. It makes classes much easier."

Huo Guining finished speaking, politely bowed, and ended her talk.

The classroom fell into silence, then erupted into thunderous applause.

Huo Guining became famous overnight.

In October, Huo Guining, accompanied by Huo Xiaozheng, began the city art exhibition tour with Lion.

The father and daughter only arrived in each city for the opening days of the exhibition, leaving when it ended.

During this time, Lion introduced Huo Guining to many renowned artists.

Over the three months, Huo Guining felt like a sponge, soaking up knowledge.

The last exhibition was in South City.

Huo Guining invited her family to attend.

On that day, Huo Guining had her long black hair pinned up, wearing a beige knit long dress with a white camellia at the chest that looked incredibly beautiful under the lights.

Old Master Huo watched her grow from a tiny tot into the graceful young lady she was today.

After the exhibition, the old master sighed, filled with emotion.

"I'm glad you've grown into who you are today. Grandpa is very proud. I hope in the future you'll continue to walk the path you want and spread your wings high."
