Chapter 5: Punching Song Jiaojiao
“Everyone, look! A heartless, black-hearted boss! My older sister got a zero on the Gaokao. What kind of place is the Pet Beast Center? They actually hired someone like that. They must have some unspeakable conspiracy.”
As Song Tiantian walked out, she immediately saw Mother Song holding a banner: Give me back my daughter.
Song Jiaojiao was setting up a tripod for a live broadcast.
This was no longer simple malice. Before, it could have been her imagination, she had no proof, but now, it was clear they wouldn’t stop until they killed her.
She even suspected Song Jiaojiao was bound to some System, and the more miserable she made her, the more benefits she’d get. Otherwise, there was no way to explain this logic!
She originally wanted to forgive Song Jiaojiao for the sake of the original owner, but now, it was a fight to the death.
Song Tiantian forced a smile and walked up to Song Jiaojiao, saying with a smile, “Jiaojiao, you came to find me while I was at work. Luckily, my boss is very kind and specifically let me come out to see you. Why did you and Mom come over like this? Have you eaten? I’ll take you to the restaurant next door to eat.”
“Song Tiantian, Mom and I are doing this for your own good. We specifically brought you home. Who doesn’t know that the Pet Beast Center only keeps Fierce Beasts, and I heard they’re even doing terrifying experiments there…”
“Slap!”
Song Jiaojiao’s voice was cut short.
Song Tiantian slapped Song Jiaojiao hard again, sending her falling to the ground.
Mother Song was confused. She froze for a second, and seeing Song Tiantian about to hit her again, she immediately tried to grab Song Tiantian, but Song Tiantian pushed her away.
Song Tiantian turned back, looking coldly at Mother Song, and said with great heartbreak, “Do you really know nothing about how I got a zero on my exam? You cleaned up after Song Jiaojiao, do you think I saw nothing?
You two conspired to poison my beverage, and I endured it.
The debt of birth and upbringing, I consider it all repaid.
Song Jiaojiao spread rumors at school and online that my previous grades were due to cheating. I didn’t say anything, but I’m a normal person!
My heart grows cold!
I’m not a masochist who gets more excited the more I’m abused.
I just wanted to leave home, find a new job, start over, and live again. The public opinion online would fade away in a few years.
But you still wouldn’t let me go. I got a zero on my exam, and you and Song Jiaojiao cursed me at home every day, saying I wasn’t making money and telling me to dance at a bar to earn money.”
“Tiantian, what nonsense are you talking about!”
Mother Song said to Song Tiantian with a pained expression.
Song Jiaojiao wanted to speak, but Song Tiantian kicked her a few more times, causing her so much pain that she couldn’t speak at all.
“I’m talking nonsense? Do you dare to look me in the eyes and tell me you truly know nothing? Do you know I was almost poisoned to death? In the exam hall, I was in so much pain I couldn’t even write my name, my soul was lost, my spirit was gone.
My closest family wanted to poison me! And they want to slander me, saying my previous grades were obtained through cheating, stepping on my corpse.”
Mother Song wanted to say something, but she didn’t dare to look Song Tiantian in the eyes. She finally remembered the purpose of her visit and pleaded with Song Tiantian, “Tiantian, I know you’ve suffered and been wronged before, but Jiaojiao said that the Pet Beast Center is a place that devours people.
I truly want what’s best for you, I want you to live well. Jiaojiao also wants you to be well!
Besides, your older sister has also found you a job, not dancing at a bar, but entering the entertainment industry to become a big star. You’ve been intelligent since you were young, you’ll definitely have a bright future.”
Mother Song didn’t know what Song Jiaojiao had specifically done to Song Tiantian, but she had watched both Song Tiantian and Song Jiaojiao grow up, how could she not understand them?
She knew Song Jiaojiao’s personality very well. She wouldn’t normally make drinks for Song Tiantian, let alone clean the kitchen so diligently.
Song Tiantian’s grades had always been good since childhood. How could she possibly get a zero on such an important exam as the Gaokao?
It was just that both were her daughters, flesh of her flesh and bone of her bone.
Moreover, Song Jiaojiao now had a bright future, having been admitted to a key university.
One daughter was already ruined, the other couldn’t be ruined as well.
This was the only promising scholar in the old Song family!
She felt that Song Jiaojiao wasn’t that malicious. Perhaps she thought the family couldn’t afford to support two people in university and wanted one to give up.
“Then you admit you knew about this. My dear mother, you knew all of this, and you brought Song Jiaojiao here to try and make me lose my job. Do you have a heart? Does your heart ache?”
Song Tiantian couldn’t be bothered to explain to Mother Song. Was it that easy for an ordinary poor girl with no Talent and no prior learning to enter the entertainment industry?
Eldest Sister dreamed of becoming a big star. Although she only got small supporting roles in short dramas every time, Eldest Sister was always happy.
If Eldest Sister had any Resources or Connections, she would definitely give them to herself first.
But this kind of debate and argument was useless. Mother Song wouldn’t listen; she would only feel that Song Tiantian was challenging her dignity as an elder.
Therefore, Song Tiantian fought fire with fire, only bringing up the matters where they had harmed her.
When rumors spread that her previous grades were obtained through cheating, she didn’t know who released them, but it didn’t stop Song Tiantian from pinning the blame on Song Jiaojiao. Because currently, the only one she knew who wanted to deal with her was Song Jiaojiao. Since she couldn’t find the mastermind, she’d put the blame on Song Jiaojiao.
She didn’t understand why Song Jiaojiao was still targeting her after she had started working. Before, she had only hinted that she knew who was harming her, without openly falling out.
They were family, there was no deep-seated hatred, why were they so persistent in dealing with her? If this ability to cause trouble was used for studying, perhaps Song Jiaojiao would be the top student, the champion.
Song Jiaojiao struggled to get up and tried to turn off the live broadcast, but Song Tiantian had been diligently exercising at home these past few days, and she had even cultivated yesterday. In her previous life, she had also learned self-defense techniques, which meant she was no match for Song Tiantian and took another slap.
“Song Tiantian, I’m a student at a key university. How dare you hit me like this? My fans will never let you go.”
“Oh my! Song Jiaojiao, hitting someone is wrong, it’s illegal, it’s intentional infliction of bodily harm. The most correct course of action is to report it to the police, and while you’re at it, investigate the poisoning incident during my exam. A goose leaves a trace, the wind leaves a sound. As long as something is done, there will be traces.”
Song Tiantian originally wanted to say that they could check Song Jiaojiao’s purchase records. The Song family wasn’t wealthy, so such large expenses would be easy to trace.
But she was afraid that if Song Jiaojiao had a System, what if the poison came from the System?
After all, she had fainted once during the exam. At that time, a doctor had examined her, but nothing was found.
