Back home, I saw a stranger sitting in the living room.
The girl looked at me as I entered.
My mother came out and introduced us, "Ah Xi, this is Su Yi. She will also be living here from now on. She is the same age as you, so take good care of her."
I nodded and extended my hand towards Su Yi, "Hello, I'm Su Xi."
Su Yi also shook my hand.
However, as soon as my mother left, Su Yi immediately let go of my hand and looked at me up and down with a frown.
Then she walked arrogantly to my side and said, "Su Xi, my mother told me you are very capable, good in your studies, excellent in all aspects, and pretty. But now, it seems you are just average."
Upon hearing this, I furrowed my brows slightly.
This girl in front of me seemed quite hostile towards me.
Even though it was our first meeting.
Su Yi continued, "Let me tell you, I'm not like you all. You are all impostors who dream of becoming the Su family's rich young ladies, while I am the real Su family's rich young lady."
After saying that, as if afraid I wouldn't believe her, she handed me a piece of paper.
I glanced at it, it was a DNA test report.
I smiled but remained silent.
Su Yi seemed to think I was mocking her, so she lowered her voice and said, "You better not act all high and mighty in front of me. I'm back now, and you all are just servants in the Su family in my eyes."
I glanced at her, finding it quite amusing, then turned and left.
If she really is a young lady, why would my mother let her live with us?
Even if she is genuine, the fact that my mother allowed her to live with us means she holds the same value in the eyes of the Su family as we do.
However, I didn't voice these thoughts.
Ultimately, these people are all my competitors, and I have no intention of helping them.
I went upstairs, but Su Yi followed, "Su Xi, what do you mean? Are you ignoring me?"
I smiled, "You better not make a scene here. That's the rule in the Su family. Those who make a scene will be punished."
Su Yi's expression turned even more disdainful as she pointed at me rudely, "What can you do? Do you think you can teach me?"
Her voice suddenly raised, and the detector on the wall started beeping.
Su Yi was visibly startled.
She turned to look at the detector on the wall that kept beeping annoyingly, "What is this junk?"
Next moment, my mother came out and pulled Su Yi downstairs directly, "Kneel!"
Su Yi was terrified, knelt down in confusion, and my mother picked up a ruler nearby, striking her back hard.
The intense pain made Su Yi scream.
However, this only fueled my mother's displeasure further.
After a dozen strikes, Su Yi understood that she had to remain silent to avoid more beatings.
After finishing, my mother looked at her sternly, "One of the rules for the Su family's young ladies is not to make a scene. Su Xi already reminded you, why didn't you comply?"
Su Yi lay on the ground, unable to speak due to the pain in her back.
My mother threw away the ruler, her voice cold, "Remember, no making a scene in the house from now on."
I stood on the stairs, watching this scene coldly, then went downstairs and said politely, "Mother, I will call the doctor."
My mother nodded.
I helped Su Yi back to her room, the doctor gave her medication, and I looked at Su Yi lying on the bed silently shedding tears, and lightly chuckled, "Want to be the Su family's young lady, but can't endure this bit of suffering. I advise you to give up on that dream."
Su Yi gritted her teeth and glared at me, "I am indeed the real Su family's young lady..."
I smiled, "The Su family doesn't care about a real young lady. What they want is a young lady with looks, intelligence, and good manners."
As I spoke, I pressed down on the hand where the doctor had applied the medicine to Su Yi, eliciting a painful groan from her.
This was just a small interest payment for her disrespect earlier.
Su Yi gritted her teeth and stared at me, "Su Xi, your jealousy is useless. A foster daughter is just a foster daughter. Wait until my father confirms my identity, then you'll see."
I remained silent and left the room.
Poor thing, still dreaming at this stage.
I detest anyone who might threaten my position, so this Su Yi, like the person allergic to peanut butter, can go to hell.
