He’s the one with a dirty mind, yet he’s always morally judging women in normal clothes.
Mom, the lovesick fool, heard this and nodded in agreement.
She hit me from behind: “Emma! What are you wearing today? Did that Holly woman teach you? What kind of image is this?”
I turned around, no longer as confused as in my previous life: “What’s wrong with what I’m wearing? Isn’t this dress in the shop window meant
to be worn?”
Mom certainly didn’t expect me to talk back like this.
Her face turned red: “Emma, how dare you talk to adults like that? You’ve really been corrupted, do you want me to teach you a lesson?”
At this moment, Chloe came over and added fuel to the fire.
“That’s right, look at your peers, who dresses as exaggeratedly as you? Are you dating someone?”
When my mom heard this, she immediately raised her voice: “What? You’re dating?”
I was really getting annoyed by their stupidity.
If dressing up beautifully means dating, wouldn’t there be no single people left in the world?
! blinked: “No such thing, how could I date so young?”
Mom: “Then you should focus on your studies! Your Uncle Daniel is a professor, he understands you young girls best. Dressing so provocatively will attract bad people!”
“Oh? Is that so?”
The next second, I turned my gaze to stepdad.
I said leisurely: “In that case, Uncle Daniel, can you give an example? Does dressing nicely mean you deserve to be groped by bad people?”
Uncle Daniel: Pupils dilated in shock.
“You, you, you child, what nonsense are you talking about?”
Me: “I’m stating facts.”
Then, I looked at Chloe who was watching the show: “By the way, Chloe, I saw you take off your school uniform in the bathroom earlier, you’re only wearing a camisole inside… Be careful not to let bad people see, okay!”

Sure enough, mom gave Chloe an angry look.
She reached out and pulled Chloe’s collar, her face instantly turning green.

Sure enough, mom gave Chloe an angry look.
She reached out and pulled Chloe’s collar, her face instantly turning green.
In front of everyone, mom dragged Chloe to the bathroom.
I glanced at stepdad and saw his gaze unnaturally shifting away from Chloe’s body.
I sneered.
I followed Chloe.
Then I heard mom’s scolding coming from the bathroom.
“You little brat, who told you to only wear this inside? I was wondering why you kept fidgeting earlier, were you trying to deliberately expose yourself for men to see?”
That’s right, this was the rhythm.
Just like Chloe, in my previous life, I was dragged into the bathroom by mom and inexplicably humiliated.
Actually, I hadn’t exposed anything, but mom seemed possessed, saying I was trying to seduce stepdad.
But now, the one being scolded had become Chloe.
“Chloe, how do you think this makes your stepdad feel? You’re a girl! How can you be so shameless!”
Chloe’s voice of defense faintly came through.
But it was quickly drowned out by the sound of slaps, followed by sobbing.
I thought: Enjoy it, Chloe, this is the quality education you’ve been dreaming of.
When Chloe came out of the bathroom again, the wedding was over.
Mom pulled her and quickly left. As they were leaving, Chloe gave me a hateful glare.

She probably still thought it was my instigation that got her locked in the bathroom.
Never mind, she’ll understand soon.
The person who will ruin her life is someone else.

Aunt Holly was indeed open–minded.
When she was young, she had a very cool job – she was a tattoo artist.
She had also been a model and formed a rock band.
In my previous life, mom always instilled in me that Aunt Holly had an improper private life.
Just because Auntie’s old blog had many photos with men.
Chloe initially admired Auntie very much too.
She enjoyed the unrestrained life, pestering dad and Auntie to take her out to play every day.
At 16, Chloe got a tattoo on her collarbone and dyed her hair blue during the holidays.
But Auntie’s intention was for her to freely be herself and return to normal when school started.
Unexpectedly, Chloe took many pretentious photos and even started an online relationship with a punk.

From then on, Chloe became uncontrollable.
She stopped studying and skipped classes every day.
Aunt Holly tried to persuade her kindly, helped her remove the tattoo, and transferred her to a more inclusive international high school.
