This point, however, was misunderstood by Quan Jinbei.
Shi Yaoguang indeed had a knot in her heart, but it wasn’t an issue from this life.
After ti rewound, the Shi Family hadn’t yet had the chance to hurt her.
Her emotional scars mainly stemd from her previous life.
Without the ability to rewind ti, she had her own thoughts but couldn’t act on them.
Just like a puppet, even one...
With the Spirit Intelligence of a living being.
If she were simply a mindless puppet, acting on orders without personal thought or awareness of rebellion, she wouldn’t have harbored so much resentnt.
But she was that exception.
She awakened her own consciousness; she understood the injustice of her suffering.
From birth, she was swapped by another.
Originally, the Shi Family was ant to be her ho.
She was supposed to be the little princess of the Shi Family, yet because of a whim of Zhuang Yueyan, she beca an abandoned infant.
If not for the kindness of strangers, she would have perished in her childhood.
Yet, sotis, being alive isn’t such a good thing.
Because she realized she was rely a side character.
A side character... to a girl who had usurped her identity.
Shi Yiqing had taken everything that rightfully belonged to her yet still expected her to continue giving.
Clearly, she was a fake heiress.
But the people of the Shi Family...
Whether it was her biological father or her biological mother, Quan Sicheng always sided with the fake heiress.
Even when she said she was being targeted by Shi Yiqing.
Shi Yiqing wasn’t as well-behaved in front of them as she seed.
She was one way to their faces, another behind their backs.
She verbally promised to make ands, but she never followed through.
Not only did she fail to compensate as she had claid, but she also deliberately sched to entrap her.
Shi Yaoguang’s current situation was indeed no longer as before, but the grievances she had once suffered couldn’t be erased.
However, there’s a saying that holds true.
The powerless have no right to seek redress.
As a businessman, and one at the pinnacle of the business pyramid, Quan Jinbei understood this principle all too well.
If Shi Yaoguang was still the true heiress who had just been brought back to the Shi Family, clueless about everything, then even as the heiress of the Shi Family, she would not be esteed by others.
Even if she voiced her grievances to everyone, no one would take it seriously.
They would all think it ant nothing.
Who asked her to be switched at birth?
Even when it was later revealed that she wasn’t switched but intentionally replaced, it would never change the outco.
No matter how legitimate the heiress was, she would still be disdained by others.
The fake heiress...
Even if she maliciously replaced the true heiress, if she performs better in the role of the Shi Family heiress than Shi Yaoguang now does, then that’s her skill.
Naturally, more people would favor her over Shi Yaoguang.
This principle should be clear to both the strongest and the weakest.
Quan Jinbei looked at Shi Yaoguang’s gentle expression and suddenly understood.
Perhaps, Shi Yaoguang wasn’t still troubled by her past.
She just couldn’t bear it.
She couldn’t bear to see Shi Fan go through the sa pain she had endured, again.
She couldn’t change Shi Fan’s current situation; all she could do was to try and soothe him.
With these thoughts, his gaze towards Shi Yaoguang softened even more.
Quan Jinbei thought, he actually hoped that Shi Yaoguang would still be entangled in these matters.
In this way, he would also have a role to play.
Shi Yaoguang could console Shi Fan, and she could console her.
Upon further reflection, he felt his thoughts were mistaken.
He should not be fixated on such trivial details. If Shi Yaoguang could truly let go of these, it would prove that she no longer cared about them, and that, in turn, would be a good thing.
The more he thought about it, the more he realized this was true.
Shi Yaoguang had no idea that Quan Jinbei had so many thoughts while looking at her.
In fact, her mindset was no different from what Quan Jinbei thought.
In the beginning, she indeed felt unfairness and resentnt.
But as she grew stronger step by step, she had co to terms with it.
When you beco a strong person, everything that you once dwelled upon becos unworthy of ntion.
To Shi Yaoguang, what she once cared about was the affection of kin, not the so-called "Shi Family".
The Shi Family, as a prominent household, was indeed an existence that she, an abandoned infant, could not possibly aspire to.
For a girl just brought back from the countryside, not knowing the rules was very normal.
If only the father and mother of the Shi Family were willing to seriously teach and take the ti to understand their daughter, they would have been pleasantly surprised.
Unfortunately, they had no such intentions.
In their eyes, Shi Yiqing was their long-nurtured "excellent work".
With an excellent sister at the forefront, Shi Yaoguang, who had just been brought back and didn’t even understand her circumstances, looking every bit the country bumpkin, did not seem so important, even if she was their biological child.
Shi Yaoguang’s thoughts were exactly the opposite.
When she first returned to the Shi Family, all she wanted was the love and attention of her parents.
Even though she was adopted by others in her childhood, she had never experienced what parental care was like.
When she learned that she had parents and that she was actually swapped at birth, she was full of anticipation.
It wasn’t for the Shi Family’s wealth that she yearned, but for—affection!
Unfortunately, the parents of the Shi Family did not realize this in ti, and likewise, they missed this opportunity.
If they could have cultivated a good relationship with Shi Yaoguang, they could have made up for everything. Unfortunately...
What they wanted, and what Shi Yaoguang wanted, were not the sa.
As the saying goes, "Those who stand for different values cannot make plans together."
This saying applies at this mont as well.
Shi Yaoguang and the people of the Shi Family naturally could not make plans together due to their different values.
And it was precisely because of their different values that they each made different choices.
Such choices, at any ti, are beyond reproach.
And it was during her missions with Spirit Intelligence that Shi Yaoguang understood this principle.
She and her father and mother were not on the sa path.
Even if they forcibly rged, their relationship would not be harmonious.
Unless, Shi Yaoguang was willing to compromise herself, to beco a person who thought like them, or alternatively, to beco an extrely excellent individual who could firmly attract their attention.
Then, the question circled back.
At that ti, Shi Yaoguang was just a true daughter who had been brought back ho. She knew nothing of the etiquette and decorum of a wealthy family’s young lady.
Such a person, in the eyes of her father and mother, was already considered a lost cause.
A lost cause would naturally not receive their attention.
It was precisely because they would not pay attention to a lost cause’s life or death that Shi Yiqing had room to maneuver.
She successfully sowed discord between the father and mother of the Shi Family and Shi Yaoguang, who already had a tenuous emotional connection.
After all is said and done, the relationship between Shi Yaoguang and her parents was an unsolvable loop.
To continue probing the rights and wrongs of it is undisputedly pointless.
