Chapter 322: Poor Thing

Pang Lili lowered her head shyly when she heard Su Jin’s words. Her face was slightly red due to embarrassment. She looked awkward as she thought about her situation at home and felt very inferior. She shook her head and said humbly,

“No, no. Mom said that I am from the countryside and I’m, I’m not clean. So, no, I am not allowed to eat with them. I can only eat alone.”

Su Jin’s eyes burned with anger when she heard this. How could they treat their actual daughter like that? Even worse than their adopted daughter? She asked coldly,

“How can they do that?”

Pang Lili lowered her head subserviently. Her biological parents didn’t like her because she was fat and ugly. She didn’t feel good about it either. She looked at the Chinese medicine in her hand and whispered,

“No, it’s fine. I’m... I’m used to it.”

Su Jin saw Pang Lili’s expression and immediately felt some sympathy for her. Pang Lili’s fate was so similar to Su Jin’s in her previous life. It was such a painful thing to be despised by one’s parents, but why did they bring Pang Lili home then? She asked curiously,

“If they treat you so badly, why did they bring you home in the first place?”

Pang Lili’s eyes reddened when she heard this. She had been living peacefully in the countryside when she didn’t know. She was very happy when her parents found her because she thought she’d have a better life. She didn’t expect it to turn out like this. Pang Lili explained to Su Jin,

“It, it was my grandmother who asked them to find me. My, my grandmother still cares a lot about me.”

Su Jin nodded. After all, old people cared more about blood relations. No matter how good their adopted daughter was, she was not their blood. But since someone doted on Pang Lili, why was she still badly treated? Su Jin asked,

“If that’s the case, then why didn’t she help you when you were being bullied?”

Pang Lili was on the verge of tears as she lowered her head. Although her grandmother doted on her, she didn’t like her very much now, especially after her parents repeatedly warned her not to talk nonsense. She explained to Su Jin hurtfully,

“Pang Nana, and Mom and Dad. They always pretend, pretend to be nice to me in front of Grandma.”

Su Jin recalled Su Xue’s attitude towards her at home and in front of outsiders, as well as that of the scumbag Su Beijiang. They treated her just like this in her previous life. Su Jin replied tactfully,

“Since Grandma is still nice to you, you should eat with them from now on. You eat whatever Pang Nana eats!”

Pang Lili looked troubled when she heard this. She was timid and felt inferior. It was not that she did not want to, but she dared not do so at home. Besides, her parents wouldn’t allow it. She said with a sad face,

“My, my mom told my grandmother that I wanted to eat alone. So, so now, I don’t, don’t even know how to broach the subject with them. I also, also wished that I could eat what Pang Nana eats.”

Su Jin saw Pang Lili’s subservient look and knew that this kid was too afraid to speak up. Nothing would probably change even if she did. But it’s not good to continue like this... So, Su Jin offered,

“How about this, I’ll go back with you after school this evening. I’ll help you talk to them.”

This poor thing was bullied so badly by the fake young miss even when she was the real deal. Even her food and drink weren’t as good as what’s served to the fake young miss. It’s bizarre!

Pang Lili was afraid of communicating with her parents. She knew that they would just ignore whatever she said. They might even ridicule her. Or worse, they would let Pang Nana be even more cruel towards her. But Su Jin was willing to stand up for her... Pang Lili replied gratefully,

“Sister Su, thank, thank you.”

Su Jin waved her hand indifferently. She casually picked up a bag of snacks and put it in Pang Lili’s hands. Anyway, these snacks were all provided by Yu Haiyang. If they were gone, he would replenish them. Su Jin replied plainly,

“You’re welcome. Aren’t we best friends? You don’t need to thank me.”

Pang Lili looked at the snacks Su Jin gave her and then at Su Jin gratefully. No one had ever treated her so nicely. Even her own parents hated her and wished her dead. She said with a choked voice,

“Sister Su, thank you so much. If... If it weren’t for you, I... I...”

Su Jin raised her head and stroked Pang Lili’s hair. This silly girl was already so moved by such a small matter. Would she help to count the money even after she had been sold? She smiled and comforted Pang Lili,

“Don’t worry. It’s fine. We’ll be fine.”
