Chapter 350: Chapter 337: It’s Hard to Be a Good Person

This chapter was modified on April 9, 2021

It seems she had still seen too little of society’s cruel beatings, and thought too highly of the wicked.

Besides being shocked by the selfishness and greed of Zhuang Ruman and Zhuang Yuanren, Zhuang Qingning was even more surprised by Zhuang Yuanzhong’s compassion at this time.

In her impression, Zhuang Yuanzhong was not one who cared much about kinship. He was unscrupulous in his actions and was truly a villain.

However, if one were to flip the script, Zhuang Ruman and Zhuang Yuanren, who reaped all the benefits and still wanted a good reputation, were hypocrites through and through.

A hypocrite is even more ruthless than a true villain, yet a true villain sometimes has a bit of a conscience.

Nevertheless, even with a bit of conscience, he is still a true villain.

Zhuang Qingning consciously didn’t equate herself with the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. She didn’t possess the generous spirit that allowed people to become Buddhas as soon as they laid down their weapons. She knew that those who had bullied her in the past didn’t deserve easy forgiveness, let alone repaying evil with kindness.

She could not afford to be so merciful.

As for Zhuang Qinghe’s situation, although it was pitiful, it had nothing to do with her.

She was not a savior and could not help everyone.

Especially not someone who bullied her in the past.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for triggering a random mission, ‘The Heart of Compassion’. The host needs to help Zhuang Yuanzhong rescue Zhuang Qinghe and expose the vile faces of Zhuang Ruman’s family and the Kong family. Upon completion of the mission, the host can receive extremely generous rewards.]

!!!

What did you just say?

She must repay evil with kindness?

Sorry, she cannot.

Although these hardships were not actually experienced by her, she had inherited the original host’s memories. The painful memories were all too clear, hard to forget.

If she agreed to this now, Zhuang Qingning felt it would be disrespectful to the original host.

Instead, you, what is the purpose of releasing such a task? You mentioned that you would not release tasks to help accumulate diligence value, but upon releasing a task, you chose this one. Are you sure you’re not deliberately offending the host?

[Host, I swear as a system, I am definitely not offending you…]

[In addition, as the host already knows, the system will never release tasks aimlessly. There must be a reason and the host can surely harvest much more than imagined.]

In other words, she must repay evil with kindness under any circumstances?

[A little bit…]

[But the host can be absolutely assured that in repaying evil with kindness, the rewards reaped will certainly be abundant!]

[Moreover, this action could incidentally deal a severe blow to the annoying Zhuang Ruman and Mrs. Song. The host could take the initiative to strike, and as for the rescue of Zhuang Qinghe…]

[There would still be opportunities to settle accounts with Zhuang Qinghe and Zhuang Yuanzhong later.]

Zhuang Qingning remained silent for a while.

As expected, this would indeed help Zhuang Yuanzhong save Zhuang Qinghe. It was also true that she could seize the opportunity to settle scores with Zhuang Ruman and Mrs. Song, preventing them from acting arrogantly.

Ever since Zhuang Qingning arrived here, she had been busy building her fortune. She considered Zhuang Ruman and Mrs. Song mere jesters not worth paying attention to, and thus she never took the initiative to take action against them.
