I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family

Chapter 695: Chapter 704: I Personally Sent My Father to Prison

Bai Zhi spoke these words with a polite smile on her face. Her remarks were logical and unhurried, not at all like the heartless child the two kids had described.

“Sister, I have nothing to say in response to that, but she is our mother. Can you please reconcile with us?

They only gave you the sugar to help you sleep because they were worried about you, not at all with the intention to harm you.

Every mother is great, how could a mother not love her own child?”

But Nan Xi continued to shake her head, tears flowing down her face as if they cost nothing.

She knew clearly that she couldn’t reveal the whole truth, all she could hold onto was the fact that Nan Xi was Ye Xiu’s daughter.

She moved towards Bai Zhi, trying to grab her hand, but Bai Zhi shook her off forcefully.

“I’ve told you not to touch me,” Bai Zhi said furrowing her brows, looking displeased at Nan Xi.

Nan Xi fell to the ground, her tears falling even more uncontrollably.

In front of the video camera, she really wanted to see how Bai Zhi would clear her name.

“I’m terrified of your whole family. Who knows if you have poison in your hand.

You’re right, she gave birth to me, even if she never cared for me. She never cooked a meal for me, never protected me.

Still, I considered her my mother, but I never imagined that she could poison me, and to do so gleefully.”

Bai Zhi’s voice was very soft, so gentle that it was somewhat heartbreaking.

Her expression was distant, as if she was recalling something, then she ended with a faint self-deprecating smile.

“I regarded her as my mother, but she wanted my life.

I’m sorry, but I am selfish and want to live a good life, so I had to take up the weapon of law to protect myself.”

At this point, Bai Zhi’s eyes shone as if they were filled with stars.

“I have always believed that justice is always there, no matter how much you deny it, no matter how much you try to use morality to bind me, I just want to say one thing.

I only want to survive, so I took up the weapon of law to protect myself.

If she had done nothing wrong, how could she have been arrested?

Shouldn’t true remorse start with saying ‘I’m sorry’ to me?

I used to crave the love of parents, but later I found out that I need to love myself first.”

As Bai Zhi spoke, she seemed to radiate a glow, looking supremely confident and extraordinarily charming.

“Nan Xi, do you have no shame? What relationship does your dad, Nan Jin, have with Xingxing? An unfamiliar stepfather, to actually poison Xingxing—if we hadn’t called the police that day, were you planning to kill her, then pretend she’s missing?”

Wu Wa glowered, grinding her teeth as she spoke, almost charging over to slap Nan Xi hard.

“No, no, we didn’t, how could we ever do such a thing?”

Nan Xi cried while shaking her head, struggling to stand up, but fell again, only to be supported by Bai Yu…

“Even if mom wronged you, you are fine now. In light of that, why can’t you forgive? She gave you life, don’t you owe her anything in return?”

Bai Yu spoke with a stern face, though in reality, he didn’t want to see Bai Zhi. Only because their brand had been causing too much trouble already, he couldn’t afford even the slightest negative news. Otherwise, the little they had managed to obtain would be lost.

“She gave birth to me…” Bai Zhi murmured, arms crossed, fiercely gripping her own forearms.

Actually, she wasn’t as calm inside as her exterior suggested; she was just enduring, the journalist thought.

“She gave birth to me, but didn’t raise me. It was my grandparents who brought me up. They provided for everything from living expenses to tuition fees, and furthermore, I slaved away for you for several years.

But that’s all in the past now. When she dies, I will mourn and wear sackcloth for her because she brought me into this world. In the future, I’ll wear mourning clothes for her, fulfilling my duty as a daughter.”

Even if I could give her living expenses every month, support her, but for everything else, come find me once you’ve taken care of it yourselves.

A mother who drugged me, I’ve already gone above and beyond in my kindness.”

Bai Zhi’s voice was soft, yet every word was resolute and powerful.

She meant every word she said.

“You’re just going to watch her go to prison?”

Nan Xi was particularly distressed, tears welling up in her eyes as she looked at Bai Zhi with pain.

“Sister, they already know their mistake and won’t do it again, they’re extremely regretful. Mom cries non-stop every day and is willing to compensate you. Can you reconcile with them?”

Nan Xi’s tears streamed down her face, making her a figure of sorrow as she looked at Bai Zhi with heartbreaking sadness.

“What prison can I sit in? That’s a criminal case.”

Bai Zhi’s gentle words made the reporter’s heart skip a beat—criminal case.

It meant there must have been something serious going on.

“Even if I reconcile, they still have to go to prison. Instead of coming to me, you’d be better off hiring a good lawyer. And I will never forgive. If I can forgive those who wanted to kill me, how can I face those who love me?”

The concept of being highly moral did not exist for Bai Zhi.

Ye Xiu abandoned her time and again, and now even wanted to take direct action; if she were still to forgive, she’d despise herself.

Bai Zhi slowly stood up, looking towards Bai Yu and Nan Xi.

“I’m not afraid to tell you I’m not afraid of contempt or gossip, I want to tell children who have gone through the same as me.”

Bai Zhi took two steps forward, getting even closer to the camera.

“Don’t give up loving yourself because of rumors and gossip.

The mouths of those people are on their bodies; they can never feel how much our hearts hurt.

The pain is felt by the one who bears it, and only the person with the wound knows where it is.

Those dark days were endured alone; why should I forgive them?

Those mouthfuls of morality and righteousness come from those who’ve never experienced such pain.

If you want to preach, try taking a cut yourself and see if it hurts before you speak.

It’s easy to speak out, but how long does it take for wounds to heal?

If no one loves you, then love yourself. Don’t think about what others say, don’t care about their stares.

Because it’s you who lives this life. You are the one who gets hurt, who feels sad, who despairs, so why give the power of decision to others?

So…”

Bai Zhi’s gaze became even more determined and cold, and when she looked at Nan Xi, it carried a trace of sarcasm.

“I won’t forgive. If the court thinks they can be forgiven, I have no objections, but don’t ask me to forgive, because I can’t.”

Bai Zhi’s words were for those who would see the interview in the future, as well as for herself.

Life is actually too short; you never know if the next moment might be your last. Thinking too much and caring about other people’s stares and gossip can be very exhausting.

“In fact, rumors can hurt one’s heart, those who talk are just echoing others—finding joy in speaking of others’ unhappiness and pain, never considering that it’s like rubbing salt in someone’s wound.

Take me, for example, there will certainly be people who say I’m heartless, that I sent my own parents to jail.”
