I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family-Chapter 267 Did Your Mom Have a Hole in Her Head Before?

Bai Zhi was thoroughly at a loss for words. If what Ye Xiu had said was true, and Bai Da really swapped the child but then they got switched back, he’d been fiercely protecting not his own daughter, but the daughter of his rival.

He had hurt countless times who was actually his own daughter. In that case, Bai Da was quite pathetic.

"If that’s the case, then Bai Da is nothing but a complete fool.

No, he’s worse than a beast. Didn’t he ever consider that what he did was simply wrong?"

Bai Zhi was infuriated. It wasn’t about whether Bai Da had succeeded or not.

Bai Zhi turned to look at Ye Xiu and noticed a smile in her eyes, something like satisfaction or perhaps pride.

What did that mean?

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, a gesture somewhat ill-timed, yet Bai Zhi felt that Ye Xiu’s smile, in that moment, was simply cool.

No, it would be fair to say that everything about Ye Xiu’s demeanor, from just now until this moment, was pretty cool.

"My Xingxing is really smart, isn’t she? Indeed, he hid it too well, but he can’t hide it forever. Xingxing won’t care about him, and he won’t be able to keep up his act for long. Mom wants to know, do you, want to have the surgery?

Mom suggests that you have the surgery.

Even if it fails, we also have to look at the potential for success.

Wouldn’t it be wrong to just give up because you’re afraid of failure?

Mom can take care of you for a lifetime, but do you really want that kind of life forever?"

Ye Xiu wasn’t afraid of whether Bai Zhi could accept the situation, but as a mother it was her duty to point out aspects of it that her daughter may not have considered.

She could take care of Xingxing for a lifetime, and she’d do so without any regrets.

But could Xingxing really accept living that way?

Being dependent on someone for every aspect of life, void of any dignity?

Yes, Ye Xiu felt that sort of life lacked dignity, privacy, the ability to control one’s own affairs, having to entrust everything about oneself to someone else.

Such a hopeless feeling, just thinking about it made her feel somewhat suffocated, and that’s why she didn’t want her daughter to have to live like that.

"I’m not willing, I do not want it. I was already going to have the surgery, so why make things complicated?"

Bai Zhi, of course, was unwilling, even if it meant death.

Bai Zhi nodded vigorously, her gaze towards Ye Xiu now carried a new seriousness.

"You’ve changed. Before, all you knew was to cry and wail, feeling guilty and sad, or even running away from problems instead of facing them head-on and resolving them. Even when dealing with Bai Da, you were fleeing, again and again you said that so many years of emotion couldn’t just be set aside. So what about now?"

Bai Zhi was very curious, truly curious. She really wanted to know if Ye Xiu still wanted to continue with Bai Da.

Of course, whether they continued was none of her business, it was just pure curiosity.

Bai Zhi thought that today must be a lucky day. She now knew that she was the daughter of Ye Xiu and Bai Da.

Even though Bai Da was disgusting, it also meant that she was Grandpa’s granddaughter.

All the disgust couldn’t outweigh this one point.

She was actually scared. Even though she hadn’t shown it in front of Wu Wa and her auntie, she was very scared. Scared of not being Grandpa’s granddaughter. Worried that Grandpa wouldn’t be able to accept her.

A bitter smile crept on her lips. She actually knew that Grandpa, such a good person, couldn’t be bad towards her. It was her own insecurity, unable to help caring about it. Now it was all right, she was Grandpa’s granddaughter, and nobody could take that away from her.

"I will divorce him without hesitation."

Ye Xiu’s voice resounded through the quiet corridor, strong and clear.

Her voice had a hint of ethereal quality, usually sounding very pleasant, but in this moment, Bai Zhi detected a certain decisiveness.

"Why? You said you liked him..."

Wasn’t it said that not everything could be so easily let go of? Marriage was not that simple either.

"That’s why I say, your mom must have had a hole in her head back then, to still not resist after being bullied like that, right Xingxing? Your mom had a problem with her brain before, you need to forget that, understand?

A woman must not settle for less on any matter, nor should she compromise. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

What is a compromise? That’s just telling people, ’look, I’m a soft touch, so go ahead and bully me.’"
