Out of Character?

Xi Wan pursed her lips, plastering a look of desperation on her face. Forget it. You’re all one family while I’m an outsider. I’m leaving!”

She then hurried into the car and asked the driver to drive off.

Upon entering the car, Xi Wan immediately wiped her tears away, her face calm.

The chauffeur was dumbfounded. “Young Madam, did the Xi family bully you? Do we need to report this to the Young Master?”

“No need. It’s my personal matter. He’s very busy, so I don’t need his help,” she replied.

The car started to move, and the system finally reacted to Xi Wan’s shocking performance.

[ I told you to come home for dinner, but how did you blow things up into such a huge display?]

Xi Wan replied calmly, “I went back, but they were all bullying me. You saw it too, no? He even dared to throw a cup at me. If I stayed any longer, I’d have been blamed for everything. I’m not stupid.”

The system was so angry that it felt like its heart was about to explode. [ This scene was meant to make you feel wronged, and then you could’ve gone to Ling Feng to tell him about your grievances. At this time, your relationship can still heat up again, and then you discover the existence of the female lead, Zhao Fei. Only then can the plot unfold. ]

“Oh, so you wanted me to go home for dinner so that I’d be blamed like that? But by pulling off that performance, haven’t I also achieved the same result? After all, the neighbors saw that I was bullied to the point of crying.”

[ What about Ling Feng? Go find him and tell him about your grievances! ]

Xi Wan rejected him decisively. “No.”

At the same time, at the Xi family.

Although Xi Wan had left, the Xi family was not in a good state because of her, especially Xi Shu, who was being interrogated by Xi Kang and Wang Rui.

Xi Kang asked, “Tell me the truth. What’s up with the boy that Xi Wan was talking about? How could you do something like pestering a man in the store? our Xi family still cares about our reputation!”

Xi Wan felt wronged. “It’s not like that, Dad. I was just talking to him in the store. He works there, and I didn’t want to interfere with his work.”

“What?” Wang Rui was surprised. “Working in a shop? How can you like a guy like this? you’re the Xi family’s heiress!”

It was only then that Xi Wan realized that no matter how she tried to explain herself, her parents would not think that she was doing the right thing. She could only say, “I’m sorry, Mom and Dad. I was wrong. I won’t do such a thing again. But even though I did such a thing, if Big Sis didn’t say anything, no one else would know.”

“Father, she did it on purpose. She must have stopped liking me a long time ago. And she actually knows that I’m your daughter. When did she find out? And why didn’t he say anything? Dad, Big Sis is so cunning.”

Xi Shu’s words easily diverted Xi Kang’s attention, and he started to suspect Xi Wan.

At this moment, the system also issued a warning to Xi Wan. [ In the original plot, you still don’t know that Xi Wan is an illegitimate daughter. Your actions just now have already aroused Xi Kang’s suspicion. That’s out of character, and the plot will easily go astray! ]

Xi Wan retorted, “Xi Kang isn’t the main character. What’s the impact?”

By now, she had returned to the villa and was in a good mood. What she did not know was that because of her ruckus, the truth that Xi Kang had been trying so hard to hide had been exposed.

Originally, the Xi family was not considered a top family in the region, so even if there was an illegitimate daughter, it would not be made public.

However, things were different now. Xi Wan was already very popular, so the scene she’d made back at the Xi family house was caught on their neighbors’ cameras. After that, someone posted the video on the internet.

Very quickly, this incident spread like wildfire on the internet.

An article titled “Xi Wan’s True Identity Exposed! The Daughter of a Rich Family is Always Being Bullied by Her Stepmother’s Illegitimate Daughter!” appeared on the internet.

Perhaps it was because they knew that Xi Wan was a shareholder of the SU Corporation, and that she was the victim in this matter, but the content of the article was clearly biased towards Xi Wan and portrayed her as the victim of oppression.

The text was accompanied by a video of Xi Wan’s crying as well as Xi Shu and her mother’s fake victim act. Very quickly, everyone was on Xi Wan’s side.
