The mother felt strange attraction to YZ (FL)... You know those motherly instinct when she saw FL. SM also always had an intuition that YZ is her rival. So throughout the story, you see that SM is always trying to defeat YZ but she always fails.
Context
1. SM hatched an evil plan where she purposely tried to dupe YZ into thinking that she will become the ambassador of the company. Behind the scenes, she had already signed a contract with that brand and just wanted to win against YZ once in front of the media. So in that day when the brand were about to announce who will be the face of their company. SM told YZ the truth and YZ as a smart FL already knew her plan but she still came here. Their conversation was heard by the mother. So she decided to work behind the scenes to change it.
What made me angry at the mother was that this was the starting of her dislike towards SM...
She always thought that SM was a "good" child but when she found out about this dealing, she was so mad. She was very disappointed and even disgusted.
FOR GOD SAKE, YOU RAISED HER! YOU SPOILED HER! YOU MADE HER LIKE THAT! YOU NEVER STOPPED HER WHEN SHE WAS DOING BAD THINGS BUT WHY ARE YOU STOPPING NOW???? WHEN SM WAS BEING ARROGANT AND RUDE TO OTHERS, DID YOU EVER CARED? DID YOU STOP HER? NOW ARE YOU TAKING ACTION because you care about YZ? Is it those so called blood relationship that is forcing you to act?
The mother literally forced SM to apologize to YZ! I know that SM is really bad but imagine apologising to someone you really hate. The problem is not apologizing, it's just the method that the mother used was annoying. The mother subtly told SM that she would stop giving her privileges and revoke her identity as a sheng family's daughter if she doesn't apologize to YZ.
SERIOUSLY??? SM action is really bad but the punishment that the mother gave is too much. Just because SM refused to apologize, you decided to disown her? Did you ever treated her like your daughter? Isn't it already enough that you did the right thing and the new face of company was YZ. The mother could have just scolded SM and lecture her about why she should not do this and told her in another way, but no the mother threatened her just because she felt something for YZ.
Imagine if YZ is not really her daughter, she would have really damaged her relationship with SM.
Anyways this is not the only thing I dislike about the mother!
When the mother found out that SM's Father is the one who sold and abducted YZ. She instantly turned her rage to SM. She did not consider whether SM knew the truth or not! She just wanted them to all suffer. Like what kind of mother does that? Would you all literally blame a child because his father is a criminal? If the child's dad is a criminal. Does it mean that they all are criminal? And SERIOUSLY YOU RAISED HER! DON'T YOU HAVE ANY FEELINGS FOR HER?
Okay so SM is also not a saint, when her dad told her the truth in the recent chapters, she was thinking that the dad did the right thing. She did not feel bad for YZ but in fact felt that it was good that YZ was sold.
For context:
SM's Father is a gambler, he had many debts, so he hatched an evil plan to use his daughter to gain Sheng's family favour. He abducted and sold YZ, then he brainwashed SM to act nice and friendly towards the mother. The mother who was severely depressed decided to adopt SM to replace her YZ. BIG RED FLAG. SM who lived in poverty felt the feeling of being rich and powerful.
The mother way of showing love was spoiling SM with luxuries. The mother heavily spoiled her. SM father also always constantly reminded SM that she was his daughter and if the sheng family found YZ, she would lose all her status.
So when SM was growing up, everyone spoiled her and constantly also told her that if the real daughter comes back, she won't have a place. She grew up thinking like that, so why would she not hate or fear the real daughter?
The main reason why she joined the entertainment industry was to establish her identity as the Sheng's family daughter. She did everything to show that she is the real daughter! She hoped that when the real daughter comes back, the Sheng's family won't abandon her.
Of course if you were SM, do you really want to change your current lifestyle and become poor, she has already tasted luxury, so why would she want to go back to that dreadful lifestyle. Of course she is very greedy and wanted more...
The mother never really gave SM the security. If the mother really treated her well not just financially but also emotionally. I think that SM might have just told the truth and would not constantly be obsessed with the identity as Sheng's family daughter. The main reason why she was so obsessed with the identity is because of money... Not for love...
It's very sad. The mother really annoyed me... SM's dad is already a scum so I expected that from him but the way the mother treated SM is also pretty toxic.
Even in the novel, the mother admits that she treats SM as a replacement. It feels like she is treating SM as a doll. You know like those ppl who lost their child might use baby dolls to console themselves but in this case the doll is alive and it's SM.
The doll knows that she will never be enough or real, so that's why the she is insecure... And that doll, SM was still a young child... When she became the replacement for YZ
I feel pity and sad for SM but I do think that she deserved it because she did do bad things. So it was karma
I just felt very annoyed at the mother. The mother... She really made me annoyed and frustrated. Don't you have any motherly feelings towards the daughter you raised for years?
Other than that I really got annoyed when netizens said SM is a fake daughter??? Fake??? When did adopted become fake???
Not just this, after the whole scandal of SM being adopted daughter came out. SM and YZ happend to be in the airport. SM was carrying an old bag and YZ was carrying a new bag. The netizens compared saying that SM is nothing without Sheng family and said that YZ did everything by herself....
Yeah right YZ did everything by herself...? Without her Big Cheat ML, she could also not afford it... So in this sense it just felt ironic... Although I do believe that YZ earned it more than SM but still if you talking about luxury... Then they going to be disappointed.
[collapse]Anyways I just don't like the mother.
