"Sigh," Tong Huan threw her recording equipment down and plopped down on the floor with an annoyed look on her face. She had been trying to gain some popularity these days by using the knowledge that she had learnt from her daddy but no matter how many videos she posted, no one cared about it.
Some viewers would stumble upon her videos but they would simply ignore her content and tell her that she was not being exciting enough. According to them, her knowledge was boring and there was nothing to watch. But these were the real facts! What did they mean by that? This was not entertainment content; it was pure historical facts. True and honest facts!
"What's wrong?" Master Tong, who returned home after bringing the medicine for his youngest son, looked at his daughter and questioned her worriedly. "Why are you sighing in such a manner?"
"I was trying to earn money, Daddy." Tong Huan turned to look at her daddy with a sullen look on her face. She was just trying to earn enough money to facilitate her brother's illness and make arrangements for his surgery but no matter how hard she worked, nothing seemed to be working.
What was more, even the job that she had taken didn't seem to be going well; her boss kept yelling at her and would often dock her pay without telling her the reason. Oh, no, he did give her the reasons but they were so silly that Tong Huan felt like she was being played like a fool.
She had a feeling that her boss was doing all of that because she had some problems with her being a sentient being!
"You silly girl, why are you worrying about such a thing?" Daddy Tong poked the forehead of his daughter with his fingers and muttered, "There is no need for you to worry about such things. Didn't your daddy say that he would take care of your brother's sickness?"
Though he said that Daddy Tong was obviously worried, when he was young he fell in love with a woman who came from the sentient being tribe and married her.
The two of them were obviously happy but who would have thought that his family would still look down on that woman? Not only did they arrange an accident to kill that woman, they even kicked him out of the family.
In their eyes, he and his wife were just stains and they needed to be dealt with. They never cared about him from start to finish!
And as he was a human, the sentient beings naturally did not care about him. So, he could only raise his children on his own. If only it were enough!
His son was born with a congenital disease; according to the doctors, this happened when two different species came together and gave birth. As he was a human and his wife was part sentient spider woman, the two didn't give birth to perfectly healthy children.
While his daughter was only born with a weak body, it was his son who suffered the most and needed surgery to get a heart transplant. But where would he, a mer whose family was suppressing him, get the money to arrange for a heart transplant surgery?
He had no money! Even the daily meals were arranged by him after he finished working as a nanny for the rich families; who would have thought that he—the young master of the Tong family—would one day lower his head in such a way!?
If he was good enough, then his daughter wouldn't have to suffer in such a way.
