Su Family.
Su Mingzhu had not slept all night.
She lay staring at the ceiling, her mind filled with the conversations between her father and Su Yaozu that day.
Numerous thoughts had raced through her mind, each one contemplating how to break free from her predicament.
But in the end, she realized she was completely out of options! Had she been kinder to Su Zhiruan earlier, maybe it would have helped, or if she had seen through her parents' true nature sooner, she might not have been so constrained.
She was filled with regret.
It was only now that Su Mingzhu realized she had been deceiving herself all these years.
In a family with three children, most people, including herself, naturally assumed that the middle daughter was the least favored. But it was the least favored Su Zhiruan who saw through their parents, cut ties cleanly, and knew to fend for herself. On the other hand, Su Yaozu, born after two daughters, obviously had a special status in the Su Family.
