The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 878: Chapter 343: Screw Your Tragic Beauty (Part 13)_3

The stitches are fine and dense, and the clothes fit Han Dongdong perfectly.

From these details, it can be seen that Han Dongdong is likely very valued at home.

Even if she isn’t as cherished as Tian Fugui, she’s still a pampered child; there’s no way she could have been abandoned.

Besides, if they really didn’t care for their daughter, they could have just sold her, which would have fetched some money and food.

Why throw her into an abandoned trap?

Did they want to feed her to the wolves?

That... that would be too cruel!

Xiao Bao, though so small, managed to think of so much.

As he thought about it, a bit of it showed on his face.

Han Dongdong, being bright and clever, saw the look in Xiao Bao’s eyes and knew he misunderstood.

Han Dongdong hurriedly said, ”I was pushed in by someone, but the person who harmed me isn’t from my family. I can’t say —”

Because when the incident happened, it was just the two of them, with no third witness. If she told the truth, and the person refused to admit it, no one would believe her.

After all, they bore no grudges, and there was no animosity between the two families.

Even Han Dongdong herself felt confused: Why did she trick me into the woods and push me into the trap?

I never offended her; we only met a few times on the road during our escape without even talking.

Moreover, when she was beaten and scolded by her grandmother and parents, Han Dongdong had once felt sorry for her in her heart, thinking it was indeed pitiful to be born into such a bizarre family.

As it turned out—

”Ah? Who was it, so wicked? Pushing you into a trap and not telling your family?”

Xiao Bao asked in shock.

After experiencing Old Lady Han’s attempt to sell him, Xiao Bao, despite his young age, had already learned the treacherous nature of the human heart.

But he thought quickly, understanding that his grandmother was selling him for money and food, and to ease the family burden.

There was something to gain!

What Old Lady Han did was truly bad, but he could understand it.

However, for someone to push another into a trap, what benefit could it possibly hold for the perpetrator?

To harm others without benefiting oneself is difficult to comprehend.

Han Dongdong pursed her lips, ”When she pushed me, it was just the two of us. If I say it was her, she definitely won’t admit it, and others would hardly believe me easily.”

So, saying it would be like saying nothing at all; she simply chose not to mention it.

Otherwise, she might even be suspected of intentionally framing her.

”...Alright, don’t say it if you don’t want to. Regardless of whether others believe it or not, it’s enough if you guard against her in the future!”

Xiao Bao surprisingly understood the meaning in Han Dongdong’s words, nodded in agreement, and reminded her to be cautious from now on.

”Mm!” Han Dongdong responded firmly, clenched her little fist, and made up her mind.

She was indeed kind, but it didn’t mean she would let others bully her easily.

She would definitely confront Qiu Zhaodi, and she would not let such a bad child off!

”Han Dongdong? You said your name is Han Dongdong?”

Ms. Hetian’s pupils contracted slightly, looking at the pretty little girl before her with disbelief.

Is this the female lead?

Who once gave a cake to her son, making him remember her for a lifetime, and ultimately died saving her?

Ms. Hetian assessed Han Dongdong from head to toe, but couldn’t see anything particularly special about the girl.

Well, maybe her eyes were exceptionally bright, and she was particularly smart and lively. There was also a kind and beautiful nature emanating from her bones, making people instantly like her.

She naturally came with an unbeatable charm!

Could this be the so-called female lead aura?

Ms. Hetian’s mind popped up some odd, novel words.

She even thought that she could actually keep the female lead around. With the blessing of the female lead’s lucky aura, perhaps she and her son, the sacrificial lamb, might also have some good luck.

But soon, Ms. Hetian dismissed this idea herself.

Firstly, she had to consider the female lead’s own wishes. No child in the world would want to leave their parents, especially a child like the female lead, who was deeply loved by her family and relatives.

Secondly, she felt a strong intuition that one shouldn’t get entangled with the protagonists.

Meeting them by chance was fine; don’t get overly involved. Parting ways peacefully was the way to go.

Forcibly binding with them might even backfire—one might not get any luck but instead absorb the protagonist’s bad luck.

For example, in the same encounter with bandits, the protagonist has an aura that keeps them safe even after a hundred stabs and falling off a cliff.

But the sacrificial lamb standing next to the protagonist might die just by getting a little scratch.

Ms. Hetian already worried that her son would someday become a tool man to help the female lead succeed, ending up in a tragic fate.

If her son owed the female lead a favor, sacrificing himself to repay it wouldn’t be in vain.

But this time, Ms. Hetian had an awakening. Xiao Bao not only didn’t owe the female lead, but he actually saved her.

Ms. Hetian felt that, whether in past or present life, or by destiny, Xiao Bao truly owed nothing to the female lead anymore.

In the future, he would not need to make any sacrifices for her.

”I’ll take you to reunite with your family...”

Without a second thought, Ms. Hetian, taking advantage of the not-yet-completely-dark sky, picked up Han Dongdong and rushed onward, just in time to meet the Han Family returning mid-way in search after discovering their daughter’s disappearance...
