When Her Family Read Her Mind, the Fake Daughter's Facade Crumbled

2026-02-12 Category: Short Drama

When Her Family Read Her Mind, the Fake Daughter's Facade Crumbled Plot:

Lin Xiaoman, a fake daughter, had hidden herself in a "gentle and sensible" shell for three years to hold onto the "home" given by her adoptive parents—she timed breakfast to the second, praised her stepmother's new dresses with precise details, and even stayed up late making support signs for her stepbrother's e-sports dream despite knowing nothing about it. Until one morning, when she stared at the salty porridge her stepmother brought and thought, "Does salt cost nothing?" her stepmother suddenly smiled and said, "I'll put half a spoon less next time." When her stepbrother snatched her phone, she cursed inwardly, "This brat needs a lesson," and her stepbrother immediately raised his hands: "I'm sorry, sister!" Even her serious adoptive father, when she touched the savings jar under her pillow, slapped a black card into her hand: "The password is your birthday." Lin Xiaoman was shocked to realize that her family had long seen through her "disguise"—the so-called "mind-reading" was just them engraving every one of her frowns and smiles into their bones over three years. They never wanted a "fake daughter"; all they wanted was the real Xiaoman who would complain and throw little tantrums.
