I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family-Chapter 169 - 170: Why Be Good to Me, Sooner or Later You Have to Make a Choice

Ye Xiu looked at Bai Zhi with particular solemnity, his eyes slightly reddening. Bai Zhi sighed softly,

"You know, to thank someone implies that you think they shouldn’t have saved you, but they did, so you thank them. In reality, you’re placing yourself in a different position.

I simply did what I should do, so no thanks are needed. Let’s go back, he won’t come over, and you can think properly about what you should do next."

Bai Zhi felt that if it were her, she would definitely decisively leave such a terrifying person. No hesitation needed. If someone is so harsh on themselves, who knows what they might do to Ye Xiu later?

After all, you can’t reason with a madman, can you?

"Xingxing, you’re right. I won’t thank you in the future, but don’t you reject the kindness I offer you, okay?"

Ye Xiu’s nose felt sore as he crouched down and looked at Bai Zhi, speaking earnestly.

"Let’s see how it goes. Actually, I am a petty person. My advice is, you should treat each of your children equally, but I, Bai Yu, and Bai Ye can no longer live in peace. Be mentally prepared for that. One day, they will force you to make a choice. Then why be good to me? It will only make your decision harder."

Bai Zhi calmly explained this unavoidable issue to Ye Xiu.

She and Bai Ye, Bai Yu could never get along. Bai Yu’s personality would one day force Ye Xiu to make a choice. Thus, she shouldn’t waste her energy trying to build a relationship with them.

Listening to Bai Zhi’s words, Ye Xiu felt helpless and even more so, heartbroken and sad.

Xingxing really positioned herself as an outsider when considering this issue, which also meant she harbored no expectations towards her anymore.

"Xingxing, each of you is my child, I won’t give up on any of you. Why should I make a choice? Each of you is equally important in my heart."

Although she had been oblivious in the past, she had now come to her senses and despised her former self deeply.

She didn’t know why she had neglected Xingxing, but Xingxing was her daughter, the daughter she cherished in her heart.

She wouldn’t make a choice because they were all her children.

"Oh."

Bai Zhi responded indifferently, choosing not to say more, as more words would serve no purpose.

And Ye Xiu, following behind Bai Zhi, watched Xingxing’s petite figure in silence, reminding herself that she mustn’t rush things and take it slow.

It didn’t matter if Xingxing felt disheartened or didn’t trust her; it was only natural.

She needed to make an effort to show her change, didn’t she?

But still, it was distressing. Moreover, what hurt the most was her pity for her Xingxing.

When the two returned home, Wu Wa immediately ran over,

"Ah Zhi, you’re back. Can I help you cook? Is that okay?"

Wu Wa’s eyes fluttered, she had noticed that whenever Bai Fei blinked like that, Bai Xiang would always buy her snacks.

"You don’t want to do your homework."

Bai Zhi wasn’t fooled, immediately piercing through her true intention.

Wu Wa was exceptionally good at math, always scoring full marks, but her Chinese was horrific.

She completed math homework swiftly but wouldn’t touch Chinese homework until the last hour,

seemingly having a phobia of it.

"Ah Zhi, Ah Zhi, just let me rest a bit, okay? I feel like Chinese is a ’Demon’ trying to devour me."

Wu Wa tugged at Bai Zhi’s hand, swaying it back and forth while she cooed.
