Chapter 149: Huang Shiliu’s Principles (2)
Lu ping smiled and said, “However, no matter what you want to do or what you don’t want to do, we won’t say whether it’s right or wrong. However, we have to consider whether what you do will cause trouble to others or whether it will cause harm to others. Moreover, if it must cause trouble and harm, is there a good reason?”
In fact, to Huang Shiliu, no one had ever taught her to think about problems like this.
Behind Lu Ping, Huang Xiaoqi looked at Lu Ping’s patient figure and smiled.
Huang Shiliu’s eyes were filled with confusion. This was a problem that she had never considered before.
Everything she thought and did was according to her own will.
Of course, if there was a conflict between her and Huang Xiaoqi, it would cause her to suffer.
Lu Ping said, “Think about it carefully. If you took a ruler and hit your sister today, wouldn’t it cause her harm?”
Huang Shiliu nodded.
Lu ping continued, “Then did your sister violate your rights today?”
“Not today… but before that…” Huang Shiliu was still unconvinced.
Lu Ping guessed what she was going to say and interrupted her. He smiled and said, “So, you have enough reasons, right?”
“Yes!” Seeing that Lu Ping seemed to support her, Huang Shiliu nodded her head vigorously.
Lu Ping turned back to look at Huang Xiaoqi and said, “Thus, Shiliu trying to beat you today wasn’t unjust!”
Huang Xiaoqi raised her eyebrows!
Lu Ping looked at her. He said seriously, “It’s not right to always fight.”
“That’s right! It hurt when you hit me before!” Huang Shiliu found that she seemed to have the upper hand and was very happy!
Huang Xiaoqi sneered, “So you’re trying to reason with me now?”
Lu Ping spread out his hands and said, “There’s nothing I can do. You have to be reasonable and stand up for yourself, right? So, Shiliu’s actions today can be forgiven!”
He turned to look at Huang Shiliu and with a serious expression, he said, “It’s understandable that you attacked her today. I think your sister can understand and not beat you up! However, the past has to end here, and it has to be written off! Also, you have to promise me that in the future, you have to think carefully about whether or not you will cause trouble and harm to others. If you have to do it, you have to have a good reason, okay?”
The essence of a devilish brat was that they did not know how to think of others, and there was no logic in their actions.
Right now, Lu Ping was hoping that Huang Shiliu could change a little.
Huang Shiliu hesitated for a moment and said, “Alright, I promise you, but my sister can’t hit me!”
Lu Ping turned his head to look at Huang Xiaoqi.
Huang Xiaoqi pondered for a moment and nodded with a smile, “Alright! I won’t hit you today! But you must remember your promise.”
As she spoke, Huang Shiliu’s body relaxed.
She instantly jumped up and patted Lu Ping’s shoulder. She said with a proud smile, “See, I told you my sister could listen to you! I’m leaving!”
“Wait!” Lu Ping stopped her and said with a smile, “Give me back the ruler…”
Huang Shiliu looked at him with a conflicted expression and said unwillingly, “I’m not done yet!”
She planned to go back and use it on herself. Why was it that it worked when Lu Ping used, but not when she did…
Lu Ping reached out and grabbed. Huang Shiliu suddenly felt an irresistible force.
The White Jade Ring Ruler flew out of her hand.
Her eyes were filled with shock.
To be able to snatch something from her hand was amazing! She had never met anyone else who could do that other than Huang Xiaoqi.
The ruler flew into Lu Ping’s hand.
Lu ping smiled and said, “That was wrong just now. I’m the ruler’s owner. If I want it, you naturally have to give it to me. Otherwise, do you want to borrow it for a hundred years forever? It’s no fun to be a cheater.”
“Alright…” Huang Shiliu was a little dejected.
Lu Ping knew that some things could not be changed overnight.
She needed time to subtly influence her.
Huang Shiliu turned around and left.
In the living room, only Lu Ping and Huang Xiaoqi were left.
Huang Xiaoqi smiled and said, “As you said, you can convince people with reason. Even I have to agree with you.”
Lu Ping looked at her seriously. “Guardians have a lot of responsibility for how a child grows up. I don’t know if Huang Shiliu has always been by your side. But, if he has always been by your side, his behavior is most likely related to your influence. So even if he makes a mistake, it’s not only his responsibility. You also have a share in the responsibility.”
Lu Ping might as well say it. He cared about the well-being of children.
If Huang Shiliu really wanted to change, Huang Xiaoqi would also have to cooperate.
Huang Xiaoqi didn’t refute.
It could even be said that she herself understood this logic.
However, when it came to the growth of those in the Phoenix clan, there were very few external forces interfering. They took a long time to grow up and mature.
Back to Huang Shiliu, Huang Xiaoqi was lazy to educate her. She often wanted to control her and used the easiest method to do so- brute force.
Lu Ping continued speaking, “This time, at least Huang Shiliu made his own promise. The next time he makes a mistake, there will be a standard for his behavior. He can be reasonable, so please remember that.”
