Like a little monkey, Wang Anzhao suddenly jumped into Su Qingming's arms and said in a childish voice, "Daddy, Mommy isn't downstairs."

Su Qingming picked him up and, seeing Su Junjun in the living room, asked in surprise, "When did Junjun arrive? Did you come alone?"

As soon as Wang Anzhao saw Su Junjun in the living room, she lowered her voice and called out, "Sister~"

Zhao Zhao knew that this older sister didn't like him, so every time he saw her, he wished he could stay far away from her. This older sister always bullied him when the adults couldn't see.

When Su Junjun saw that her father had finally noticed her after being back for so long, she felt no joy at all; instead, her heart was filled with resentment.

Su Junjun is already ten years old, and she knows everything she needs to know.

Su Junjun knew in her heart that she was like an outsider in the Su family.

When she went to the Su family's old house, her grandparents always told her to stay away from her mother and maternal grandmother, or not to come back to the Su family so often, otherwise they would be upset to see her.

But her grandmother was so good to her, how could she bear to be far away from her grandmother! Su Junjun couldn't help but complain in her heart about why her grandmother always forced her to make choices.

It was the same at my father's house. My father only considered Aunt Du and Wang Anzhao as family, and he didn't include her at all.

But Su Junjun never thought that she used to be the only child in the family, and that Ma Xiaoqing had worked hard to raise her.

How could her family not spoil her? They just spoiled her too much and made her too naive.

So when Su Junjun could walk and jump, someone from the Zhao family came and told Ma Xiaoqing.

They said Zhao Nana is Junjun's mother, and that she misses her child very much, so she wants to take the child to stay at the Zhao family's house for a couple of days, and also let the child develop a relationship with Zhao Nana.

Finally, Grandma Zhao remarked to Ma Xiaoqing, "What child doesn't miss their mother?"

Ma Xiaoqing figured that the child hadn't seen her mother since birth, so it wouldn't hurt to let her go see her. That's why she agreed to let the Zhao family take Su Junjun to stay with them for a few days.

As it turned out, a few days later Su Junjun came back and told Ma Xiaoqing that her grandmother was very kind to her and even bought her a super big candied hawthorn.

He would buy her her favorite pears, clothes, new shoes, and style her hair nicely, etc.

At first, Ma Xiaoqing thought that the child was just excited about the new environment and was talking about it more.

Who knew that after visiting the Zhao family once, things would get out of control?

As a result, Su Junjun was later corrupted by the Zhao family, and she couldn't forcefully change Su Junjun's ways.

Ma Xiaoqing couldn't possibly like an immature little brat or a biased, spoiled child.

Ma Xiaoqing has weathered many storms along the way, how could she be bound by the emotions of a little child?

So, given Ma Xiaoqing's unpleasant expression, Su Junjun's most frequent place of residence over the past two years has been the Zhao family's.

Of course, it's not that she can't go to the Su family, but when she goes there, no one will treat her like she does at the Zhao family.

That's why Su Junjun felt that everyone in the Su family was trying to restrict her.

Ma Xiaoqing kept telling Su Junjun what she couldn't do, what she couldn't do, what she shouldn't do, and what she shouldn't do either.

If this is wrong and that is not right, then what is right and what is not right?

Su Junjun was so annoyed by these words every day.

As time went on, Su Junjun's relationship with the Su family deteriorated, and she became more inclined to side with the Zhao family.

Faced with Su Qingming's question, Su Junjun simply snorted and turned back to watch her TV.

Su Qingming frowned as he looked at Su Junjun's attitude.

This has happened many times before, and Su Qingming knows that saying more is useless, but he still can't help but speak up.

"Jun Jun, how many times have I told you to greet your elders and be polite when they ask you questions? Don't always talk back and throw tantrums."

"When someone asks you a question, you should respond. Don't remain silent. It's basic politeness. After all, you're not mute."

"Don't come back with a face full of anger every time. If you have any complaints or things you want to say, just say them frankly. Don't take your anger out on others. They don't owe you anything."

Su Junjun watched her father nagging and couldn't help but retort sarcastically, "Who is 'other people'? Who did I lose my temper with? You come back and start criticizing me. You just don't like me, don't you? What? Did someone tattle on me to you again, saying I was rude to her?"

Seeing that she was still the same, Su Qingming felt that Su Junjun was being targeted every time he tried to teach her properly.

Su Qingming took a deep breath. "When I was teaching you seriously, you didn't listen and all you did was complain about this and that."

“If you don’t want to come to my house, then don’t come. If you do come, you have to follow Aunt Du’s rules.”

Upon hearing this, Su Junjun stomped her feet in anger, "Why should I follow her rules? This is my home too! I can come and go as I please."

"What's wrong? Just because you have a stepmother doesn't mean you have a stepfather. You're my biological father, and I'm still your biological daughter. Why don't you ever side with me when something happens?"

Su Qingming said helplessly, "I'll side with whoever is right. You're only so arrogant because everyone in the Zhao family is on your side and flattering you."

"Why do you think the Zhao family is so devoted to you? If you weren't surnamed Su, what would you have that would make them so enamored with you?"

"Given the Zhao family's patriarchal mindset, how could you, a girl, possibly be liked by everyone in the Zhao family? You're already 10 years old, not some clueless little kid. You should be able to read people's expressions by now."

Su Junjun looked at her father's eyes, which were red from anger, and unconsciously shrank back.

She had never seen her father so angry before.

Su Junjun couldn't help but recall the days at her maternal grandmother's house, where her aunt would always give her a disdainful look whenever she saw her.

And whenever my uncle bought something delicious, he would secretly hide it for my cousin to eat.

But Grandma said that she wasn't her uncle and aunt's biological child, which is why they favored her cousin. Isn't that right?

Seeing that Su Junjun was still stubborn, Su Qingming gave up.

He wasn't a patient person to begin with, and he was giving Su Junjun a chance now because he couldn't appear too cold in front of Qingqing.

After all, if he can't be a responsible father in front of his own daughter, wouldn't Qingqing think he's too heartless?

Do you think he's an emotionally detached person who can't even get the joys and sorrows of his own child's own happiness? Would he really love her more than he loves himself?

Would Qingqing be afraid of this version of herself? After all, his indifference doesn't evoke any empathy.

Actually, Su Qingming was wrong. It is precisely because people who love themselves will listen to their inner feelings.

They would never allow themselves to be wronged because of others.

I only love what I like, and I only want to do what I want to do.

Indifferent people are usually more concerned with their own preferences and feelings, and are only willing to focus their energy on the people and things they care about, and are less likely to care about the needs of others.

However, some people may appear cold, but they actually have a soft side; they just aren't good at expressing it.
