The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Instead of like now, when the car’s already halfway there before the Second Young Master suddenly speaks up.

So, it probably wasn’t Ms. Zhao taking the initiative to summon him, but the Second Young Master acting on a whim.

The driver licked his lips. He really wanted to ask, "Second Young Master, does Ms. Zhao need something from you?"

If this were before today, facing the usually good-tempered Second Young Master, the driver might actually have asked.

But today—

Seeing the Second Young Master’s icy and distant look in the rearview mirror, the driver didn’t dare say a single extra word!

In the end, he only answered meekly, "Okay!"

Quickly adjusting the route, the driver turned the car around and headed toward Southern City.

Once they left the urban area, layers upon layers of forested hills came into view.

It was as if this place were isolated from the bustling city, surrounded by mountains, with birds singing and flowers in bloom.

Even the air seemed much cleaner than in the city.

The car drove into a tranquil villa district and stopped in front of a three-story, Chinese-style villa.

"Second Young Master, we’re here!"

The driver parked the car, turned around, and said respectfully to He Tiantian.

He Tiantian opened her eyes and turned to look out the window. Mm, a courtyard both familiar and unfamiliar.

This was the residence of the original host’s real mother. Funny enough, as her only child, the original host barely came here a few times a year.

It wasn’t that he was unwilling to get close to his real mother; it was that his real mother didn’t welcome him.

It wasn’t that she took her anger over the divorce out on him; it was just that his temperament left his real mother, Ms. Zhao Yingzi, utterly speechless.

In order to live a few more years and avoid being angered to death by her own son, Zhao Yingzi told the original host straight out: "Don’t come here unless you have to! I like being alone and quiet!"

He Tiantian: ...

Sigh, it wasn’t that Zhao Yingzi liked quiet; she had no other choice.

As a mother—especially a divorced woman who never remarried—she might not say her child was her entire world, but he still meant a great deal to her.

Unfortunately, the original host was too Top-grade, forcing Zhao Yingzi to not dare get too close to him.

Yes, Top-grade!

After accepting two versions of the plot and integrating all of the original host’s memories, He Tiantian directly slapped a "Top-grade" label on him.

Maybe, in the eyes of outsiders, the original host, Su Hetian, was gentle and refined, kind and considerate, tender and delicate—a good man, that universally liked "nice guy."

Calling him a Holy Father wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

He never looked down on others because of his privileged background, nor did he bully anyone with his status.

His heart brimmed with compassion; he took pleasure in helping others. He was practically the White Moonlight in countless people’s hearts.

Even the female lead, Feng Yuyao, had special feelings for him.

Not romantic love, but a kind of faith in goodness.

But when it came to his closest relatives, Su Hetian was a bloodless, invisible blade!

He was kind; he longed for a beautiful world, universal harmony, so he also hoped everyone else would be kind, that every person, every household could have their big reunion banknotes!

The problem was, not everyone was as lucky as he was, able to live in a carefree home with loving parents.

Everyone has their own wounds, their own helpless circumstances.

Not everyone can let go of grudges and forcibly wring out a perfect, happy ending.

In fact, even Su Hetian’s own family wasn’t truly harmonious.

It was all just his "misconception."

In Su Hetian’s view, although his parents divorced, they didn’t become enemies; they still jointly cherished him.

Stepmother Han Mingli was kind and gentle; she didn’t fight for power like the second wives in other wealthy families, plotting constantly. She only devoted herself to serving her husband and taking care of the children.

His half-sister, Su Anqi, was capable and bold. She joined the family business during university, starting from the bottom. Outside, she was a much-praised career woman; at home, she was the good big sister who took care of her younger brother.

His half-brother, Su Henian, was a bit rebellious, but hey, teenage boys in their chuunibyou phase—no matter how naughty, people can understand.

The main thing was, while Su Henian could be a brat, he respected his Second Brother, Su Hetian, very much.

The brothers had a great relationship; among all those wealthy families where siblings were constantly bashing each other’s heads in over inheritance, they were practically a model example.

His father, Su Changsheng, outwardly a Father Yan, was actually very loving toward Su Hetian.

Knowing Su Hetian didn’t like business, he let him choose an arts college and fully Support his studying abroad.

And then there was his real mother, Ms. Zhao Yingzi. Although Ms. Zhao’s words were always prickly, Su Hetian could still feel that his mother loved him very much.

It was just that his mother’s health was poor, which made her temper a bit abnormal, so her way of expressing love was a little different!

Ms. Zhao: ...You silly child, what kind of sin did your old mother commit to end up raising such a naïve, simple-minded blockhead like you!
