Chapter 3323: People’s Hearts Were Naturally Biased
Ma Lanlan put down her schoolbag and poured him a glass of water.
As Ma Yongjun drank, he turned to his younger daughter and asked, “Were you good at school today?”
Ma Shuangshuang, with her two little pigtails which made her look adorable, replied in her soft, childlike voice, “Shuangshuang was good.”
Ma Lanlan stood by, pressing her lips together tightly, then turned and went straight into her room.
Ning Shu was in the kitchen picking vegetables when she saw Ma Lanlan storm into her room angrily.
People’s hearts were naturally biased. It was impossible to be completely fair.
Ning Shu sighed. Tasks involving children were truly difficult.
Ma Yongjun was extremely partial—his attitude toward his two daughters was completely different.
With his eldest daughter, he could be cruel enough to slap her face black and blue, completely disregarding her dignity.
He never thought about how she was growing up, how she was a girl, and still hit her face.
Yet, with his younger daughter, he would sometimes give her candy or little gifts.
The eldest daughter was treated like a weed.
It was something that made people jealous and angry.
Ma Lanlan was probably fuming inside her room right now.
Her personality was a bit sharp—probably shaped by growing up in such an environment. Her own opinions were developing.
And she was starting to resent this family.
No child wants to see their father beating their mother every day, their mother constantly covered in bruises.
Ma Lanlan probably deeply hated Ma Yongjun, this father of hers.
Since Ma Yongjun wasn’t feeling well, he surprisingly didn’t go out today.
He was snoring beside Ning Shu in bed, completely disgusting her.
Grinding his teeth, farting—it was repulsive.
Maybe marriage really was a graveyard, and this was one of the reasons why.
Having to face a person like this every day.
Ma Yongjun indulged in every vice—drinking, gambling, visiting brothels.
He treated the house like a hotel, staying out all night, sleeping who knows where—probably in another woman’s bed.
Scumbag.
Ning Shu stuffed tissues in her ears, then sat cross-legged on the floor and started cultivating.
She couldn’t sleep anyway, so she might as well train.
Once she gained power, Ma Yongjun’s strength would mean nothing to her. He’d be as easy to crush as a little chick.
But what would be the point of just killing him outright?
She had to plan carefully, make sure she had a way out, and ensure she wouldn’t be caught in the fallout.
Acting on impulse for revenge was just stupid.
She had to endure the pain, bide her time, and plan everything thoroughly—to protect herself and her two daughters.
Ma Yongjun would definitely suffer, but that had nothing to do with her.
The next morning, Ning Shu woke the children up.
It was Saturday. She had promised to take them out to buy new clothes.
Ning Shu quietly told the two children they were going shopping. After breakfast, they left on tiptoe, ignoring Ma Yongjun, who was snoring away in his deep sleep.
Ning Shu took the two children to a children’s clothing store and bought each of them two new outfits.
She bought an extra hair clip for Ma Lanlan and said, “You don’t have to be angry at your father. Liking something is a personal feeling. Don’t expect too much from others.”
Ning Shu pinned the hair clip onto Ma Lanlan’s head, placed a hand on her shoulder, and pushed her in front of the mirror. “You look beautiful.”
“Even though he’s your father, if he doesn’t love you, there’s nothing you can do about it,” Ning Shu said.
“What did I do wrong for Dad to treat me like this?” Ma Lanlan raised her head and asked, truly unable to understand.
