The heroine is not really an evil girl, she is just greedy and selfish, and does not take the initiative to do evil. But it's much better than those novels that use the guise of being a villain and try to whitewash the heroine. The interaction between the male protagonist and the female protagonist is really ambiguous. ②💥 But when I opened my eyes again, the three children were already four years old.
