I became a cannon fodder villain. If I want to survive, I must take care of my baby first.
Chapter 196 2 Extremes
Catherine's family is wealthy, and her parents always feel superior to others. In the process of getting along with them, Catherine naturally becomes arrogant.
Their family's wealth is not so great that everyone can bow and scrape to them respectfully.
Among them, Catherine was the least likable.
Children's world is very simple. They don't understand the meaning of power and wealth, and they don't handle many things tactfully. Otherwise, Catherine's isolation would definitely bring disaster to their family.
Catherine's parents were stupid people who showed their arrogance without any disguise. Taking care of children was a huge problem for them.
But Catherine's inherent arrogance does not allow her to admit her mistakes, so she can only immerse herself in the world of books all day long.
Huixiang is at the other extreme. His mother was a prostitute. When she was young, she had unrealistic fantasies about love. She was deceived by a rich boy who said he would give her a large sum of money to redeem her as long as she gave birth to a child.
It turned out that the rich kid had no intention of taking responsibility, and as soon as Hui Ying was born, he disappeared without a trace.
After suffering the blow of being abandoned, Huisheng's mother finally recognized the truth and decided to raise him seriously no matter how humble she was.
But she was sold to a brothel when she was young, her parents were scumbags, and she was surrounded by unreliable people. Even if she wanted to be a good mother, she didn't know how to do it.
Besides, her own living environment is already very bad, so how could the child she gives birth to be any better?
Huixiang has had a very hard life since childhood. The poor growing environment has made him extremely inferior. Fortunately, his mother, even though she was in a quagmire, would do her best to give Huixiang the most love.
In his harsh childhood, his mother's tenderness and sweet smile are the few good memories he has.
The mother didn't want her young son to see her in such a mess while working, so she always gave him the books she got from guests and let Huiying play by himself.
Echo is illiterate and finds reading very difficult, but fortunately he can use sonic magic to actively convert complex texts into understandable language, which he enjoys a lot.
It is hard to imagine that Catherine and Echo, two people with very different living environments and personalities but similar loneliness and interests, could get along so well after meeting each other.
Echo was used to being submissive, and did not have much resistance to Catherine's arrogance that she always showed. Instead, he found it very interesting to exchange reading experiences with her, and he could often get better books from her.
Catherine also liked this only friend who was willing to listen to her and play with her. She shared all the good things with him and even took the initiative to give him the pocket money given by her parents.
However, Huiying unexpectedly refused. He said that his mother had told him since he was a child that there is no free lunch in the world and that all benefits require a price.
"Besides, what you did was just alms. Mother said that alms are the most garbage, useless and annoying things in the world. They do nothing but insult people." Echo said seriously.
Catherine lowered her head in shame: "I'm sorry, I didn't know this and didn't mean to humiliate you."
"I know," Huisheng said to her with a smile, "After all, even though Catherine has read so many books, she still has an empty head, a bad character, and always talks nonsense... So you seem to be a hopeless scumbag?"
"I can't refute it..." Catherine subconsciously wanted to raise her proud head, but was surprised to find that what the echo said was actually correct.
Huisheng tapped her head gently. "When admitting your mistakes and expressing your gratitude, you should bend your waist and lower your posture. When communicating with others, you should stand up straight. If you tilt your head back, it usually means that there is something wrong with your neck or brain."
"I'm sorry!" Catherine bent down as he said, with a very sincere attitude.
After spending a long time with Huisheng, you can naturally learn something from him, such as a humble attitude.
Of course, it would be a big mistake to think that Echo is a man with a good character. He did take advantage of Katherina at the beginning, but when their relationship got better, his bad character was revealed.
Catherine's subconscious fall to the ground while apologizing to Zhong Ling Sheng Yin was the result of the echo.
"No wonder you two can get along so well together." Zhong Ling Shengyin couldn't help but laugh after learning about their relationship.
Huisheng has a good temper, but that doesn't mean he won't get angry.
At first, Catherine's arrogant attitude made him hate her for a long time. In order to punish this ignorant little girl, he took the time to train her... to teach Catherine, so that she would develop the "good habit" of kneeling at any time.
Thinking of this, Zhong Ling Shengyin was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She always felt that why did Catherine like his dark personality so much?
As for Hui Sheng's thoughts, Zhong Ling Sheng Yin can read other people's minds, so he knows them very clearly.
Originally, the two of them could not see Zhong Ling Shengyin like everyone else, but because of their telepathic connection, the "seeing" part of the sound magic of all things and the "hearing" part of the sound wave magic were combined to create this situation.
Every time Catherine tried to find Zhong Ling Shengyin to find out Huiying's opinion of her, he would stop her in time.
According to Echo, he didn't want Catherine to be too arrogant.
The guy knows he's terrible, so he's open to suggestions.
If she gets too proud of knowing that Huisheng actually likes her, she will definitely become overconfident and get into a lot of trouble.
The reason why he liked Catherine was very simple. She loved reading but her head was empty. After restraining her arrogant personality, only the passionate and unrestrained part remained.
How should I put it? I saw the shadow of my mother in Catherine.
This was also the reason why he refused to let Katherina know that he liked her. He always felt that he would be embarrassed if others knew that he liked his mother too much.
“Oh, then you have to be polite to my friend and put away your bad habits.” Zhong Ling Shengyin hugged the two of them with both hands and said with a smile: “After all, I am not as tacit as you.”
"Did you hear that, man?"
"Ming...understand."
Faced with the echo's reminder, Catherine was very nervous.
After all, when she first met Zhong Ling Shengyin, it was she who angered Hui Ying away.
Under normal circumstances, Catherine would definitely not be able to find him. Fortunately, Huiying was very rigid. He believed that people like him could not go many places and would easily get in the way of others wherever they went. So whenever he had something on his mind, he would go to the bell tower.
The Holy Sound Bell Tower has always been open to the public free of charge, and due to the changes in the situation in Liuguang City in recent years, no matter how much people pray, the current dire situation is difficult to change, and gradually no one comes here anymore.
Echo and Catherine first met in the bell tower. At that time, he was sad because of his mother's illness, and he happened to meet Catherine who was looking for a quiet place to read.
This thick-skinned girl couldn't understand how sad he was at the time. She just thought Huisheng was quite handsome, and driven by lust, she took the initiative to step forward and say hello.
Huixiang didn't like this arrogant girl at first and teased her for a while. But later, when he saw her holding the book that he wanted to read but couldn't get, he started to communicate seriously with her.
As both were fans of the book, the two naturally had things to talk about, although most of the time it was just Echo's teasing of Catherine because of her outspokenness.
Thanks to this encounter, Huiying realized that he was actually very happy to be with Catherine.
Because Catherine was too stupid, she didn't feel bullied at all. Instead, because she had her first friend, she happily came to play with him and study with him every day.
Of course, no matter how well they get along, quarrels are inevitable as both of them have such bad personalities.
Fortunately, there was the help of the bell spirit Shengyin, otherwise Catherine would have made Huiying so angry that she might not have been able to find him in the bell tower that was as complicated as a maze even if she was so tired that she lay down.
Besides, even if they met, I'm afraid it would only lead to a more intense quarrel.
Even Huiying said that if it weren't for Zhong Ling Shengyin's help, given Catherine's personality, she would definitely not apologize honestly, and they might even fall out because of this.
Zhong Ling Sheng Yin smiled and said, "It's great that you can reconcile. After this lesson, don't quarrel again in the future."
In fact, they never had any quarrels again, not because their relationship had become so good, but simply because there was no chance for them to quarrel anymore.
