After my mother died, I became very obedient.
My stepmother, who had taken my father's mistress's place, said that once my little brother was born, I'd have to go out and scavenge for trash.
I changed into ragged clothes and went from door to door in the neighborhood, asking if anyone had trash.
My stepmother became known throughout the neighborhood as a wonderful stepmother.
When I got into a top high school, my father said he was so worried about having no money that he was losing his hair.
That night, I stood by his bed and shaved it all off with a razor.
The next day, my father went to a meeting with a bald head.
After that, I was clearly very obedient, yet no one dared come near me.
Until Fu Chen showed up.
“Why don't you marry me? I love how obedient you are.”
After we married, he went abroad every month to spend a week with his childhood sweetheart. I obediently never asked about it.
Later, his childhood sweetheart returned home pregnant, and I caught them in bed together.
He said casually, “Since you're so obedient, listen to me and find someone too. We'll each do our own thing.”
I nodded.
He didn't think much of it, but then caught me in bed with his friend.
Only then did he realize I really was incredibly obedient.
