At Sun Lifang's request, Iltana agreed to shift the focus of the task to "how to resolve the conflict between the triplets".
Because they were twins, the two boys liked to form cliques and isolate Perrin.
[Perhaps I'm a little sexist, but I swear, I've never shortchanged Perrin materially.]
Seemingly realizing that Sun Lifang wouldn't help her kill her daughter, Iltana changed her mind. "Then can you make Perrin like me a little more?"
If she liked it, Perrin wouldn't have sent herself to a mental hospital for special care.
I think the problem lies in my family's parenting style, but I don't know what to do.
Iltana softened her tone, and after recounting her hardships for a while, she added, "[If only I had only given birth to two, Perrin really—]"
They are really not easy to educate.
We've tried everything—
But the two brothers seemed to have a grudge against Perrin from birth; they wouldn't play with her and would even beat her up.
Not all children love each other; you don't know Perrin's dolphin-like high notes.
Its screams are absolutely deafening.
Upon hearing this, Sun Lifang also felt that earning ten million was not easy.
He thought to himself, "Shouldn't geniuses be different from ordinary people?"
From a young age, she was competitive and ambitious, always wanting to have what she saw. As Iltana said, "There's nothing Perrin can't get."
[Whatever she liked, her father would buy it for her, fulfilling his daughter's desires.]
Conversely, it is—
[The father loves his daughter more than his son; if the three children fight, he will definitely side with his daughter.]
If the father helps his daughter, shouldn't the mother help her son too?
Iltana felt she was right, but Sun Lifang felt they were both wrong.
"Do we really have to separate the family like this?"
When a conflict is discovered, instead of finding a way to unite them, the mother takes the lead in taking sides, standing on the opposite side of her daughter.
By standing against her daughter, she also pushed her husband to the opposite side.
This directly led to An's father disliking Peiwen and Peiwu from their childhood.
It's not surprising that Peiwen and Peiwu, growing up to be unlikable, easily became useless pieces.
“This isn’t Perrin’s fault; it’s your handling of the situation that’s problematic.”
Who doesn't want a harmonious and happy family?
The more Iltana disliked her daughter and divided the family into two extreme factions, the more An's father loved his daughter and hated his son.
Who caused the tragic ends of Peiwen and Peiwu?
"You were one of the driving forces behind this."
Sun Lifang hopes that Iltana will realize her mistakes and change her attitude towards her daughter.
But the other person didn't care at all, only saying: "Even ten fingers are of different lengths, Perrin really—"
She couldn't bring herself to love Perrin.
That's very strange—
How could I not love my own daughter?
Sun Lifang was running out of patience dealing with this kind of customer.
To put it bluntly, this is a man who doesn't love his daughter, yet expects her to love him and unconditionally sacrifice for him and his brothers.
Did Perrin never love her mother from birth?
That's impossible. A child's first teachers are their parents, and they admire their parents the most.
It was Iltana who pushed her daughter away, and now in her old age she hopes her daughter will take care of her, respect her, and listen to her.
How could that be?
After thinking about it for a while, Sun Lifang felt that Iltana was beyond change; deep down, she didn't think she had done anything wrong.
The only thing that can be changed is Perrin.
"Let her be happier and more cheerful."
Ideally, she should be able to get along well with her brothers and not be influenced by adults.
Often, children can resolve their own conflicts.
But when adults get involved, the meaning changes.
Sun Lifang felt that the order was worth it, as she spent ten million to buy the female tycoon's happy childhood.
Perhaps she received far more than ten million.
With this in mind, Sun Lifang invited her daughter, Yue Peilin, to come to her home often to play, hoping to help her resolve her inner conflicts and provide her with a healthy social environment through close observation.
Instead of sulking in a corner and drawing circles to grow mushrooms.
Of course, even if Zhou Xinya didn't say it, she would still invite Peilin to her house to play.
Having said that, Zhou Xinya felt even more at ease and boldly invited her girlfriends.
There was a plastic grapevine surrounding the bar area in the villa's living room.
The most popular decoration of that era was a bunch of green and purple fake grapes hanging down, like a garden.
Under the grapevines, two little girls sat at the bar stacking blocks.
"Peiling, why are you so unhappy today?" Zhou Xinya glanced at her friend, puzzled as to why she looked so downcast.
"Hey, when do you think I'll grow up?"
Perrin rested her chin on her hand, a sadness in her eyes that seemed out of place for her age. "When I grow up, I'll be able to live the life I want, right?"
For some unknown reason, Perrin put down the building blocks and rested her head on her arm, lost in thought.
Will things get better when you grow up?
Will we be happier when we grow up?
Zhou Xinya didn't understand what her friend was thinking. She always felt that Peilin was surrounded by an adult's melancholy.
She ran off to make two cups of milk powder, and then Zhou Xinya brought out a cake roll to treat her to afternoon tea.
Lillian's Tiger Rolls have a rich egg and milk flavor and a delicate, firm texture. My dad buys new ones every two days and keeps them at home.
Zhou Xinya took a big, satisfying gulp, pointed at the cream to her friend, and gestured for her to eat it quickly.
Perrin suddenly asked, "Yaya, don't you want to grow up?"
Zhou Xinya shook her head and then nodded.
What does that mean?
“Sometimes I think about it, but my mom tells me that each stage is different.”
