I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family-Chapter 166 - 167: Disdained by Xingxing

"Xiuxiu, how could you be afraid of me? I love you so much that I wish I could give you everything, including my heart. How could I possibly hurt you?"

Not hurting doesn’t mean not controlling, right?

Bai Zhi felt that Bai Da was really good at evading the important points.

"I don’t want you to love me, really, I can’t bear your love. I’m leaving, Xingxing, let’s go..."

Ye Xiu gripped Bai Zhi’s hand tightly, her hand exceptionally cold and covered in sweat.

"Mm, let’s go back."

Bai Zhi nodded, helped Ye Xiu to stand properly; Ye Xiu truly had no strength. The events of the day had given her such a great shock that she hadn’t caught her breath.

"Wait a second."

As Bai Da tried to approach, Bai Zhi blocked him, preventing him from getting close to Ye Xiu.

Ye Xiu’s heart warmed. She had not expected that, instead of her becoming Xingxing’s support, it was Xingxing who was protecting her.

"Move aside, I have something I wish to say to your mother."

Bai Da’s face darkened, contrasting sharply with the wound on his forehead. It wasn’t a big cut, but he had intentionally rubbed it hard, making the blood on his face look particularly terrifying.

As if his entire face were covered in blood.

"She doesn’t want to talk to you, don’t you see?"

Bai Zhi stood unmoving, glanced at her hand, which had become smoother recently due to less hard labor.

Bai Da was very angry at Bai Zhi’s immobility.

"I am your father, why don’t you listen to me?"

Bai Da could only speak, for he knew clearly that his strength was no match for Bai Zhi’s.

"Oh, I don’t think of you as my dad. The food I eat comes from crops I grew, my tuition is paid by Grandpa. Have you done anything a father is supposed to do?

No, you haven’t. So, stop that nonsense, it’s useless, got it?"

Bai Zhi remained expressionless. By now, she could talk about it calmly because it truly didn’t bother her anymore.

"How can you say these things!"

Bai Da was so angry he couldn’t take it, but Bai Zhi was already preparing to leave with Ye Xiu.

"Don’t follow us. If you do, I’ll beat you. And could you wash your face? Unless you intentionally want everyone to think my Mom has been hitting you, understand?"

Bai Zhi thought that with people like him, unless you made things explicitly clear, they would keep feigning ignorance.

Ye Xiu felt even colder inside after hearing that, looking at him indifferently.

"I didn’t mean that, I’ll go wash, I’ll wash right now."

Not daring to disappoint Ye Xiu further, Bai Da immediately went to wash his face.

By the time he came back, Bai Zhi and Ye Xiu had already left.

On the way back, it was Bai Zhi who supported Ye Xiu.

"Xingxing, is Mom so useless that she’s gone limp?"

Ye Xiu was somewhat embarrassed by her own weakness, afraid that Xingxing would laugh at her.

If it weren’t for Xingxing, she really wouldn’t know what to do, right?

"Mm, a little useless."

Bai Zhi also thought that Ye Xiu was quite useless. However, since she was not Ye Xiu, she couldn’t understand her feelings or what she had gone through in life; naturally, Bai Zhi wouldn’t dwell on it.

Sometimes we like to play God, thinking about what Ye Xiu should do. But she’s not Ye Xiu, is she? How would we know if there isn’t a single beautiful memory for her, nothing worth cherishing?

"Xingxing?" Ye Xiu felt like crying. Why did it have to be so direct?

Couldn’t she get a little comfort?

She felt rejected by Xingxing, sob sob sob...
