Chapter 32 I’ll Do It Myself
The girl with smoky-eye makeup knew that she had offended someone she shouldn’t have. She quickly told Huo Quan everything she knew, “We don’t know anything. We don’t know Li Miaoke’s identity or her family background. However, someone told us that Li Miaoke is an illegitimate daughter. She doesn’t have a mother. No, her mother abandoned her to the Li family when she was very young…” “Shut up!” Huo Quan’s cold voice suddenly rang out. His voice was so deep and cold that it made everyone tremble. Li Miaoke tightened her arms around Huo Quan’s waist slightly. She knew that no matter how hard she tried to escape, it wouldn’t change the truth. She had to face reality eventually. The girl with the smoky-eye makeup was right. She was an illegitimate daughter.
Li Miaoke slowly released her arm. She lowered her voice and said a few words to Huo Quan. Huo Quan furrowed his brows tightly. “No, I don’t agree.”
No one knew what Li Miaoke said to this man, but they could hear the man immediately rejecting Li Miaoke.
“I can do it.” Li Miaoke raised her head and looked at Huo Quan with burning eyes. “Brother Huo, you have to trust me this time, okay?”
“If you…”
“I swear I won’t.” Li Miaoke looked at him with a smile. “Besides, I know what I should do.”
Huo Quan hesitated for a long time and finally agreed. However, he was still worried and frowned.
Although Huo Quan had promised Li Miaoke that he would let her resolve this matter on her own, he didn’t let go of Li Miaoke’s waist. In other words, Li Miaoke was still in Huo Quan’s arms.
Li Miaoke wanted to break free, but Huo Quan refused to let go, so she could only let him go.
Li Miaoke’s gaze fell on Zhou Xiao first, and a nonchalant smile appeared on her lips. “Xiaoxiao, this person is right. I am indeed the illegitimate daughter of the Li family. Although I am the second daughter of the Li family on the surface, everyone in the Li family knows that I was brought back by my father from outside.”
Huo Quan tightened his grip around Li Miaoke’s waist. He could feel how much pressure his little girl was under to be able to calmly reveal her sorespot. Li Miaoke’s unfortunate past was the pain of her entire life. Now that she had admitted that she was the illegitimate daughter to the public, it could be seen how determined Li Miaoke was. And all of this was caused by Li Miaoyu!
Huo Quan’s eyes turned red. When this matter was over, he would definitely teach the Li family a lesson!
Zhou Xiao’s face turned pale, and the other students were stunned as well. So Li Miaoke… was really an illegitimate daughter.
“But, my birth, my identity, who I am… It’s not something I can decide. If I could decide… I would choose not to be born, and not experience this kind of life where people poke at my spine.” Li Miaoke paused for a moment. She smiled and looked at the pale Zhou Xiao. “Xiaoxiao, I know you don’t like illegitimate daughters, and you don’t like homewreckers, but I have never done anything to hurt you. If you really can’t accept my identity, don’t worry, I won’t appear in front of you in the future.”
Li Miaoke’s voice became lower and lower as she spoke.
No matter what, she was still a high school student who hadn’t entered society. Friendship was extremely important to her.
When the other students heard Li Miaoke’s words, some of them had already started to wipe away their tears. Li Miaoke was right. All of this was Li Miaoke’s mother’s choice. What did it have to do with Li Miaoke? She was also an innocent person who was implicated. Her mother was already dead. If they forced everything that Li Miaoke’s mother had done on her, it would be too unfair.

“Although I can’t choose where I come from, I can choose my life.” Li Miaoke straightened her back. “I won’t be someone else’s mistress. As for what these people said just now about me destroying my sister’s relationship, I will use legal means to defend my rights.”
Li Miaoke’s words were undoubtedly a bomb. Her eyes were cold, and her voice was icy. Even if she was held in the arms of that elegant man, it couldn’t conceal the imposing aura from her body.
Zhou Xiao pursed his lips and didn’t look at Li Miaoke. Instead, his gaze fell on the girl with smoky-eye makeup not far away.
Huo Quan’s gaze swept past Zhou Xiao. His gaze wasn’t friendly. “Wei Ling.”
Wei Ling stepped forward. “Sir.”
“Did you hear what she said?” Huo Quan asked nonchalantly. After Wei Ling nodded, he raised his hand and instructed, “Then do as she said.”
