Upon hearing this, the little girl immediately cried and retorted.
"Thatâs not true, Auntie is the kind one, she never scolds me or forces me to do things I donât like, she only makes me happy."
"Unlike mom, whoâs always forcing me to practice calligraphy, learn manners, and do needlework. If I donât do well, sheâll hit me."
"Every time mom wants to hit me, Auntie stands in front of me to protect me. Auntie is the best person in the world. If only she was my mom, boo hoo..."
[...]
[For a moment, I didnât know what to say.]
The inner voice echoed this one line and then fell completely silent.
Yun Wanchen squinted his eyes and let out a faint laugh, saying, "Hearing you say this, your Auntie really is very good to you. However, doesnât your Auntie have a daughter?"
[Huh???]
[What did I just hear?]
[Big Brother said that concubine is nice? That canât be right, Big Brother isnât the kind to make rash judgments.]
[Heâs never even met this concubine, how could he come to such a conclusion after hearing just a few words from a little girl?]
[Also, Big Brother has always been indifferent, not very enthusiastic even with aunties, so how could he suddenly take such interest in a little girl he barely knows?]
[And still have the leisure to talk to her?]
[Wait, why do I feel like Big Brother is probing, is it just my imagination?]
[What could Big Brother be probing?]
[Could it be that he already suspects this ungrateful little brat isnât Auntieâs daughter?]
[No way, no way? Big Brother is smart, but he canât start suspecting right after meeting her, thatâs too absurd.]
[Yeah, yeah, it must be my imagination, or maybe I donât understand Big Brother well enough.]
[Big Brother might just be a bit cold to adults but more patient with kids, thatâs all,]
Yun Wanchen: "..."
As he quietly listened to the little bundleâs analysis of him, Yun Wanchen found it very amusing.
Little Sister always has countless thoughts in an instant; she is probably the most interesting person in the Yun Family.
Also, Little Sister truly knows him well, much better than mom and Yaoâer.
"Hmph, whatâs that lowly girl worth? How could she compare to me? Auntie said Iâm the legitimate daughter of the Shang Family, as for that lowly girl, sheâs just a dog of the Shang Family."
"Auntie said that lowly girl was born for my amusement, that when Iâm happy, I can play with her, and when Iâm not, I can vent my anger on her. I can do anything to her."
"If she dares to compete with me for Auntie, Iâll have someone beat her to death."
As she said this, a hint of fierceness appeared on the little girlâs face, showing she wasnât just joking.
Upon hearing this, Yun Wanchenâs eyes shifted slightly, a hint of darkness flashing through.
The âlowly girlâ she mentioned is likely the concubineâs daughter, or rather...
Is that little girl really living such a life in the Shang Family?
[So malicious at such a young age, what will happen when she grows up?]
[Lowly girl? The concubine and the scum man are truly despicable and vicious to give a little girl such a name.]
Yun Wanqing couldnât help cursing the scum man and the concubine in her heart.
Yun Wanchen had been waiting for more detailed story, but she kept jumping from one thing to another, never getting to the point.
Having no choice, he had to take the initiative to probe.
Looking at the little girl, who was angry, he feigned confusion, saying, "The âlowly girlâ you mentioned, is she your Auntieâs daughter?"
"Your Auntie is so good to you, shouldnât you be good to her daughter as well, as a way to show gratitude? Why would you want to kill her instead?"
"Arenât you afraid that if you killed her, your Auntie would be very sad?"
The little girl anxiously refuted him again.
"Auntie wouldnât be sad because of her. Auntie said she only loves me. Auntie also said, the lowly girlâs life is worthless, even if I accidentally killed her, it wouldnât matter."
"Itâs just that I find her obedient; sometimes when Iâm in a bad mood, venting on her is quite fun, so Iâve kept her around."
"She should be grateful that I let her live; she shouldnât compete with me for Auntie, and Auntie must never love her."
[Listen to what sheâs saying!]
[The upper beam isnât straight, and the lower beam is crooked. She considers her malice to be something to take pride in, speaking so proudly.]
