The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

It’s the spiritual abuse that takes precedence.

No blood is seen, yet it can drive a person to death.

"Indeed..."

He Tiantian deliberately put on a thoughtful expression and simply recounted Ye Beibei’s experience of cold violence at school.

Of course, storytelling wasn’t the main point; He Tiantian brought up Ye Beibei’s matter to tell Zhao Yingzi something specific.

He Tiantian not only spoke of Ye Beibei being bullied by outsiders but also of the harm she suffered from her real father and brother.

"Alas, this child is also pitiful, thinking that those closest to her would hurt her the most!"

After listening to He Tiantian’s account, Zhao Yingzi sighed softly.

In a sense, Zhao Yingzi and Ye Beibei are somewhat sympathetic.

They both were, "inadvertently," stabbed brutally by those closest to them.

This kind of hurt is more devastating than a fierce attack from an enemy.

Yet you can’t treat them with the same bitterness that you would an enemy, nor can you repay them.

Because those people are their family, the ones they can’t bear to target.

Zhao Yingzi can understand Ye Beibei well; what they want is simple, not needing others to share their enemy, just for them to understand their pain, bestow upon them one pure, unique "preference."

"Mom, at first I thought ’not necessarily.’ Ye Beixuan is quite dutiful towards Ye Beibei, not only caring about her life but also actively giving her pocket money—"

Seeing Zhao Yingzi’s empathy for Ye Beibei, He Tiantian began to perform, "I then advised Ye Beibei not to take it too seriously, after all, they are family, and stepping back for harmony and happiness at home benefits everyone!"

Upon hearing her son’s absurd argument, Zhao Yingzi’s eyes widened instantly.

"You, you advised Ye Beibei, a young girl, not to take it too seriously?"

Zhao Yingzi’s tone couldn’t help but escalate, "You actually advised a victim to be kind and magnanimous? To harmonize with those who harmed her?"

Where’s the knife, the knife of my mother!

This brat preaches kindness at home but spreads it outside!

Since she’s his real mother, she neglected him in the past and didn’t teach him well, and now she’s suffering the backlash—serves her right.

Ye Beibei, a young girl, doesn’t deserve to bear the saintly father treatment.

"Exactly, isn’t it quite ridiculous?"

He Tiantian seized the moment and gave a bitter smile, her eyes flashing with deep confusion.

As if she didn’t see Zhao Yingzi’s annoyance, she continued to mumble, "Ye Beibei cursed me, saying ’don’t advise others on kindness without experiencing their suffering.’

"She also called me hypocritical, said I was standing while talking without feeling the pain, and was morally coercing her!"

"Ye Beibei further said that having not experienced what she went through, I am not qualified to comment on her, much less stand on the moral high ground, criticizing and controlling her."

At this, He Tiantian looked aggrieved, "I didn’t, I just thought they were family, why be so Water and Fire Cannot Coexist?"

"Besides, the Ye Family hasn’t mistreated Ye Beibei. Ms. Qiu was indeed wrong in the past, but she couldn’t control her feelings and has been compensating over the years."

He Tiantian voiced the original character’s bizarre thoughts.

Zhao Yingzi became increasingly furious, even starting to rise and search for a handy tool.

Damn, I’m going to beat this dead child harshly.

Su Hetian, that little bastard, looks well-dressed and refined but has been fundamentally corrupted by the Su Family.

Unable to empathize, yet wishing to act as a moral model.

Being fooled at home is one thing, but bringing hatred outside is another.

Always resorting to moral coercion on others, meddling excessively... humph, if it wasn’t Ye Beibei—a young girl, perhaps someone with a fiery temperament might have beaten Su Hetian up on the spot.

Someone with such a troublesome mouth deserves a beating!

He Tiantian still pretended not to see Ms. Zhao losing it.

She continued in a bewildered tone, slowly saying, "Ye Beibei scolded me again!"

"Mom, no one has ever scolded me like this before, I always thought everyone liked my kindness, my magnanimity, and supported it greatly!"

"Yet Ye Beibei was full of disdain, saying I was a real-life keyboard warrior, Living Bodhisattva. Never wronging myself, yet using moral high ground to cause trouble for others!"

As He Tiantian spoke, she couldn’t continue, and she fell deep into contemplation.
