"Compensation?" Shen Mianmian laughed sarcastically and then her voice turned cold, "Zhou Siyu, how do you plan to compensate me? With what can you compensate me? Can you even compensate me? You’re stealing my life, you’re a thief, a robber, no, you’re far more terrifying than thieves and robbers, you are a devil."
She stole the fatherly love that should have been hers, took away the husband she should have married in her previous life, and although she didn’t kill her with her own hands, she indirectly caused her death.
She hadn’t forgotten any of it, she just wanted to first live her own life well and then slowly settle scores with Zhou Siyu. After all, her rebirth wasn’t just for revenge, she also wanted to experience the life she couldn’t have in her previous existence.
In her previous life, she lived nearly forty years without really being a wife, a mother—these were her regrets.
Zhou Siyu choked up, and after a while, she said, "After I go to college, I’ll bring back the money I earn, build a new house for the family, and when you marry off a son-in-law, your days will be better too."
These were the only forms of compensation she could think of at the moment.
Her uncle didn’t want Shen Mianmian to leave here, so Zhou Siyu couldn’t offer Shen Mianmian a city job or introduce her to potential partners from the city.
Shen Mianmian let out a cold ’heh heh’ laugh twice, "What if I go to school and give you the money I earn, and I won’t fight with you over anything here, so you won’t need to strive and will still live in a new house, how about that?"
Zhou Siyu couldn’t continue the conversation. This brat, her mouth was too sharp, she simply couldn’t outtalk her.
The inside and outside of the house fell silent for a while, and Shen Mianmian’s voice came from inside again.
"Dad, if you let me out now, I’ll still acknowledge you as my father, I’ll act as if nothing has happened, and when you get old, I’ll still take care of you."
Her tone paused, and she continued, "If I miss the exam today, once I leave this door, I’ll never come back, and our father-daughter relationship will be over."
Shen Mianmian’s tone carried a seriousness and determination that didn’t match her age.
She wasn’t trying to scare Shen Jianhua; these were her most earnest thoughts at the moment.
She had already repaid the debt of being raised in her previous life.
Hearing these words from Shen Mianmian made Shen Jianhua’s body tremble, and although he opened his mouth, he couldn’t make a sound.
He wanted to keep his daughter, but now it seemed like he was pushing her further away.
"Sister, I’m sorry, really sorry, it was all my doing, it has nothing to do with uncle and aunt, if you’re going to hate, just hate me alone."
Afraid that Shen Jianhua wouldn’t withstand Shen Mianmian’s mix of soft and hard tactics, Zhou Siyu hurriedly took over the conversation. It had taken much effort to confine Shen Mianmian, and she couldn’t let it be for naught. Follow current novᴇls on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵
Shen Mianmian ignored her words and continued speaking to Shen Jianhua, "Dad, I know all of this is your doing, have you really decided to exhaust all the father-daughter affection between us?"
"Before, I thought that you cared for me, at least a little, since you didn’t beat me like mom did, and you even said you’d sell everything to let me go to school, I really believed you."
Shen Mianmian’s words stabbed at Shen Jianhua’s weak spot, and he suddenly felt like he had really made a mistake this time.
His daughter was much smarter than he had thought, his actions couldn’t be hidden from her at all, and if he didn’t let her out, she might truly do as she said and never acknowledge him as her father again.
Thinking this, Shen Jianhua took a step forward, wanting to open the window.
