Chapter 270: Chapter 269 Favoritism
“Later, as I grew up a bit, and I really couldn’t stand it anymore, I made up my mind that I had to speak clearly with you. I didn’t want to continue shooting anymore…”
Qi Zhen said this, looking at Qi Yue with an almost desperate gaze, “But just at that moment… you came back… Qi Yue… you returned… just at that time…”
Qi Zhen muttered distractedly, “I’ve never seen such brightness in Dad’s eyes; Dad, do you know? You never looked at me that way…”
During that time, you seemed to walk with a breeze, constantly praising Qi Yue, always talking about how outstanding Qi Yue was, how talented she was…
You only told me to learn from Qi Yue, saying that under those conditions, she could still shoot so well; I had such good conditions yet didn’t appreciate them…
It was always like this… always like this… every time it was the same… It seemed as though if I gave up shooting, I would lose all my significance, you would abandon me…
I can’t imagine, if I had told you then that I didn’t want to practice shooting anymore, what it would have been like…
You would definitely have completely abandoned me, your daughter! Just like back then, when you sent Qi Yue to the countryside…”
Yu Shuhua covered her mouth, she never imagined her daughter had such a deep misunderstanding, “Zhenzhen… why would you think that… you are our daughter… how could we abandon you…
And your sister… Initially, it was because her health was poor, and we were too busy with work, simply unable to care for two children; the countryside had better air, which was indeed suitable for her recuperation, so we sent her there to recover…”
Qi Zhen looked at her mother: “Is that so? Then why didn’t you bring her back after she recovered? Only when you heard she had won a position in the provincial shooting competition did you remember her?”

Qi Yue’s eyes slightly stirred, she hadn’t expected that the question pressing on her heart for so many years would ultimately be asked by Qi Zhen.
Upon hearing this, Yu Shuhua looked uncomfortably at Qi Yue, although reluctantly, she had to speak out now, “I… yes… I admit… even if they are both my own daughters… There inevitably are differences…
You grew up by our side, I raised you myself, naturally I feel closer to you; your sister was closer to your Second Uncle and your grandparents, her nature was more wild, I was busy with work and looking after your competition schedules and daily needs, I was already overwhelmed, I genuinely feared that I couldn’t handle her if I brought her back, so I kept delaying until your father insisted on bringing her back…”
Qi Yue quietly listened to her mother’s words, this was the first time she heard her mother explicitly admit her bias.
Unexpectedly, she didn’t feel sad.
How could human feelings ever be completely equitable? Accepting that she was not the favored one actually brought her a sense of relief.
Qi Zhen spoke with a look of despair, “Dad, Mom, do you know an idiom called ‘the rabbit dies, the fox grieves’? If at that time I had told you that I wanted to give up shooting, I would have become the rabbit that was abandoned…”
Yu Shuhua hastily said, “No! Zhenzhen, no! Mommy loves you the most!”
Qi Zhen: “Really… does not? Do you truly think not? When all your attention would have been on Qi Yue, all eyes on Qi Yue… How would that be different than abandoning me?”
