This is a melodramatic novel world about real and fake heiresses.
Xia Mingyue, the fake heiress, is the ideal female lead. Although she comes from a poor background, she is talented, beautiful, and of noble character.
Especially when she dances gracefully on stage, she resembles a beautiful white swan, attracting men to flock to her.
Xia Mingyue eventually became the principal ballet dancer in China, married a wealthy man who was a simp, and lived a shameless life of luxury.
The real heiress, Yao Wangdi, is a vicious supporting character who, ever since she was recognized as a relative and entered the Xia family, has been competing with Xia Mingyue for everything.
Unfortunately, she was both stupid and clumsy, and every time she tried to frame the female lead, she ended up losing more than she gained, which only made Xia Congwen and his wife love Xia Mingyue even more.
The better Xia Congwen and his wife treated Xia Mingyue, the more Yao Wangdi hated her, and her methods of revenge became increasingly extreme.
Like Xia Congwen and his wife, the readers initially felt sorry for Yao Wangdi and believed she should receive compensation from her biological parents.
After all, if she hadn't been switched at birth, she wouldn't have suffered so much and almost been sold to an old bachelor.
But as Yao Wangdi repeatedly targeted Xia Mingyue, jumping around like a clown, everyone got annoyed.
Her most common tactic was to claim she was sick, repeatedly calling Xia Congwen and his wife back from school, only to be exposed later.
He always came in last or second to last in exams. Seeing Xia Mingyue dancing, he started clamoring to take dance classes too, claiming that he was more talented than Xia Mingyue.
As a result, she broke her leg on her first day of class and told everyone that Xia Mingyue pushed her.
The Xia Congwen couple became increasingly disappointed in her, feeling that she was both foolish and vicious, even worse than their mentally challenged son, Xia Zhiyang, so they completely gave up on her.
As a result, Yao Wangdi became invisible in the Xia family. No one spoke to her or paid attention to her. The only person who would look at her, Xia Zhiyang, was speechless.
News of what she did to Xia Mingyue reached the school, and her classmates ostracized her. Xia Mingyue's admirers even bullied her at school.
Soon, her asthma flared up, and somehow her medication ran out.
She desperately tried calling and texting Xia Congwen and his wife, but one ignored her and the other didn't believe her.
Lin Zhi said impatiently, "Aren't you tired of these little tricks yet? Haven't you heard the story of 'The Boy Who Cried Wolf,' a tale even a three-year-old knows?"
He hung up the phone after saying that.
Yao Wangdi quickly lost her voice. She crawled out of the room and made a lot of noise, and Xia Zhiyang's door opened instantly.
He still had that dull and dazed look, but he picked up Yao Wangdi and ran out of the house. There was a private hospital just 300 meters away.
But Yao Wangdi was utterly despondent and had lost all will to live.
She felt so tired of living, and she didn't want to wake up again.
So she gave up struggling and let the feeling of suffocation take her life.
At the hospital entrance, Yao Wangdi died in Xia Zhiyang's arms.
Upon hearing the news, Xia Congwen and his wife were only saddened for five seconds; they felt more relieved.
Instead, Xia Mingyue cried her eyes out: "It's all my fault. I was in my room doing a listening test with headphones on and didn't hear my sister's cries for help."
If I had discovered it in time, maybe my sister wouldn't have died. It's all my fault.
The couple quickly comforted her, saying, "How can we blame you? It's because she often lies that no one believes her when it really matters. It's all fate."
No one noticed the madness in Xia Zhiyang's eyes, despite his blank expression.
Like Yao Wangdi, Xia Zhiyang, the prayer, is also a cannon fodder male supporting character.
Although he was born with autism, it wasn't actually that severe at first.
Geniuses are extraordinary; when he was three years old, he could understand the university mathematics textbook that Xia Congwen brought home and even underlined the correct answers.
He showed it to Xia Congwen and only got a beating in return.
At that time, Xia Congwen was holding Xia Mingyue and reading her a story. When he saw the scribbles on the textbook, he reached out and slapped her across the face.
"What are you doing scribbling on my book? Mathematics is sacred; it's not something a fool like you should touch."
Xia Mingyue mimicked him, pointing and shouting, "Idiot, idiot."
Lin Zhi kissed her and praised, "Our Mingyue is so smart."
From then on, Xia Zhiyang never spoke again, nor did he get close to his parents, immersing himself entirely in his own little world of mathematics.
In the eyes of Xia Congwen and his wife, his illness had worsened.
Xia Zhiyang also disliked his younger sister Xia Mingyue, not because their parents favored her, but because she had two faces.
She appears kind and innocent in public, but is hypocritical in private. Whenever her parents are not around, she calls Xia Zhiyang "idiot."
Xia Zhiyang observed everything coldly like an outsider until his younger sister Yao Wangdi arrived.
Looking at the petite girl, Xia Zhiyang's cold and hard heart was strangely stirred.
Although she doesn't look as glamorous or outstanding as Xia Mingyue, Xia Zhiyang likes this younger sister.
He wanted to be close to her and talk to her.
But after not speaking for more than a decade, he had lost his ability to talk and didn't know how to get along with his sister; he could only watch her silently.
But the younger sister's attention was all on her parents. She desperately wanted their love, so she used all sorts of clumsy ways to get their attention.
The Xia Congwen couple seemed to treat their two daughters equally, but even Xia Zhiyang, who was emotionally insensitive, could sense a huge discrepancy.
He showed favoritism to Xia Mingyue, but treated Yao Wangdi with polite indifference.
Xia Zhiyang watched as his younger sister became increasingly extreme, but he was completely helpless.
He also knew that his sister really loved dancing, because he had accidentally seen her secretly practicing in her room and dancing even better than Xia Mingyue.
But she broke her leg, and Xia Zhiyang believed her words, saying that Xia Mingyue must have done it.
Because when he was a child, Xia Mingyue had pushed him down the stairs.
Just because his mother was in a good mood one day, she personally fed him a bowl of steamed egg custard and called him Yangyang.
He watched as his younger sister's face turned purple and her body grew colder in his arms.
At that moment, the string in Xia Zhiyang's mind snapped.
Looking at his parents, who showed no remorse after his sister's death, and Xia Mingyue, who was putting on an act, Xia Zhiyang thought, "Destroy them all."
That evening, Xia Zhiyang extracted useful ingredients from his usual medications to synthesize poison, which he then poured into his family's dinner.
All four of them had eaten dinner, but at the crucial moment, Xia Mingyue's protagonist aura came into play.
One of her devoted suitors, a doctor, happened to visit after dinner and saved a family of three from poisoning.
At Xia Mingyue's behest, he ignored Xia Zhiyang and let him die from the poison.
After his death, Xia Zhiyang learned everything. It turned out that he and his sister were just cannon fodder used to highlight Xia Mingyue's wickedness.
No matter how much they struggle, they can only become stepping stones for the female lead, and be ridiculed like clowns.
Before her death, my sister was utterly despondent and no longer wanted to fight for anything, so she didn't even harbor any resentment.
But Xia Zhiyang is not suitable.
He is a genius and should not have become just another ordinary person, much less be manipulated and trampled by that foolish, naive woman with the so-called protagonist's halo.
He wants revenge!
He also wanted to protect his younger sister and give her a happy and fulfilling life.
Qi An: "Don't worry, I've got your sister covered."
