Back then, when Xixi had just come to their family, they treated her well. At that time, the original owner hadn’t disliked Xixi yet, and treated her well too.
At that time, it was clearly they who took the group pet to play in the water, and she got a fever only after coming back. But in the end, they said it was because the original owner hadn’t watched her properly?
Because they lived in the same room?
Not to mention the original owner had so many things to manage every day; why was it her responsibility to watch over her?
“Speaking of this, I have to say, back then I foolishly thought it was my fault! But where did I go wrong?”
Bai Zhi looked at the three people watching her, dumbstruck, and gave a faint smile,
“Was I wrong to make meals for you, or did I go feed the pigs instead? Wasn’t it because you went out to play in the water? What now, I provide three meals a day for you, and I still have to accompany you in your play?
You really have some nerve!”
After Bai Zhi finished speaking, they were all stunned. Why?
The old Bai Zhi would just throw tantrums and scream and shout, but now, saying all this, which seemed very reasonable, this…
Just as Bai Yu was about to say something, Bai Zhi spoke again. This time, she didn’t even look at them but found a shady spot to sit next to Xixi,
“I have given up so much, don’t I deserve a piece of candy? As for the 200 yuan you mentioned? I’m not taking the blame for that.
This scar, it’s because of you all, right? Don’t talk to me about the process; we all know what happened.
I got eight stitches; shouldn’t Dad pay for that? Or do you think the hospital will treat for free?”
They had simply decided that Grandpa would pay, so they wanted to take the 200 yuan back!
“But even so, you shouldn’t ask Dad for money; that’s clearly Xixi’s school fees. By doing this, Dad has to carry cement for Xixi’s school fees, and you can simply watch Dad carry cement every day!”
Bai Ye felt that Bai Zhi was now quite sharp-tongued. They couldn’t win against her, but she was still wrong. As Dad’s daughter, she had no inkling of compassion for Dad!
“You said it yourself, didn’t you? That is Xixi’s school fees. You were implying she shouldn’t go to school, right?”
Bai Zhi looked at Xixi sarcastically and, in the next second, successfully saw tears in Xixi’s eyes.
Her tears fell from her eyes; Bai Yu felt an extreme heartache, glared fiercely at Bai Zhi! As if Bai Zhi was incredibly unreasonable, he yelled out loud!
“Bai Zhi, what nonsense are you speaking, what does this have to do with Xixi?”
Xixi cried even harder, grabbing Bai Yu’s hand,
“No, Sister is right; it’s my fault. I shouldn’t go to school!”
Her eyes showed sorrow, then self-blame as she looked guiltily at Bai Yu and Bai Ye,
“Brother, let’s go find Dad. I’ll tell him I won’t go to school anymore. Just having you teach me is enough; let him stop carrying cement!”
It’s undeniable, the group pet felt somewhat guilty at this moment; she truly thought it was her fault. If she hadn’t wanted to study, Dad wouldn’t have to struggle so much.
“Originally, I’m not Dad’s biological daughter. How could I let Dad suffer so much for me?”
Her voice was very low, filled with deep hurt,
And especial self-blame. Sister Zhi was right, because of her school fees Dad had to carry cement, if she stopped studying, Dad wouldn’t have to work so hard!
Dad, from the hands of villains, had rescued her, protected her, and taken care of her.
What else could she be unsatisfied with?
“Bai Zhi, it’s all because of you. If it weren’t for you, Dad wouldn’t have given you that money. You clearly used it to buy meat and food, yet you actually won’t admit it. What does this have to do with Xixi! Whether she’s biological or not, do you believe I would hit you!”
Seeing how upset Xixi was, Bai Ye felt so distressed that he rushed up to Bai Zhi, wanting to hit her.
Bai Zhi was too much. She knew that not being biological was always a sensitive issue for Xixi, yet she brought it up on purpose.
Bai Zhi lifted her head, looking at Bai Ye indifferently as if he was nothing more than a clown jumping around. Her eyes showed no fear; instead, she slowly stood up and walked towards Bai Yu,
This unfamiliar version of Bai Zhi made Bai Ye involuntarily step back,
She looked at him with contempt and said word by word,
“Bai Ye, besides hitting me, what else can you do? What I said was just the truth. Besides, so what if I am biological? Did you ever let me study?
So don’t feel wronged in front of me. Who can I share my grievances with? Or do you think only you have a heart, and I don’t?”
After finishing her words, Bai Zhi frowned, realizing that what she intended to say was not this. A sudden feeling of injustice filled her chest, making it painfully sharp like being pricked by needles.
Previously, Bai Da had come to discuss with her, asking her not to go to school next semester, but she hadn’t agreed,
and now they couldn’t handle it when Xixi spoke up?
Hmph, studying might be important for Xixi, perhaps to recall past memories, to find her parents,
Why shouldn’t she be able to study.
She also wanted to work hard to earn her tuition fees; did they give her a chance?
No wonder,
No wonder the original owner was so angry and disliked the group pet because the group pet deprived her of the opportunity to learn!
This episode, had she not recalled it today, she really wouldn’t have thought about!
At this moment, Bai Zhi’s gaze changed; she looked at the three of them coldly, utterly devoid of warmth!
“Why do you think you have the right to judge me? If she can’t study and cries, what about me? I’m your biological sister, when have you ever taken me to heart? Since you haven’t, on what grounds do you have to control me!”
Bai Zhi turned around and walked away, afraid that she would not be able to control herself and would end up hitting Bai Ye like him!
These so-called brothers and their father gave the opportunities that should belong to her to the group pet, unfairness is just unfairness, yet they cover it up with high-sounding words. And they expected the original owner to dote on the group pet as well,
Why should she? Just because the original owner was supposedly too busy with household chores to study and they said she wasn’t intelligent enough?
Or because they spoke of yielding to their sister, it’s all nonsense!
No wonder she resented the group pet; the original owner expected paternal love, kinship, all snatched away, and yet they demanded her to sacrifice everything for them?
How much the original owner loved to study could be seen from each and every word in her notebook, those notes revealed it all. She was just too naive, taking over all the household chores, never really having time to study,
And because she truly loved her brothers, she took on everything, letting them go pick fish mint, but sadly they never saw her sacrifices! Only to blame her in the end when she left!
Bai Zhi walked away quickly, her entire being exuded a gloomy aura, she was very angry! Really angry!
She could no longer stay there, fearful of losing control over herself!
