Chapter 5: Chain Reaction
When Jian Mu went back, Lu Xiufan was working in the study.
She stood in the doorway for a long time, hesitant to ask him what the scar was.
But for a long time, she didn't dare to push the door in.
What did he do, could she ask?
Didn't she sell it to him?
When she went to bed, Mi Lele called her, "The old principal of his alma mater is still alive, and it is said that he is ninety-nine." It was for him that the school celebration was held. Several college entrance examination champions are going to go. Jian Jian, you were the top science student in that year, and your grades in all subjects have always been the first in the department. It's impossible if you don't go. ”
She replied, her heart crawling with grass.
Jane Mu hated the old headmaster, or should she say she hated him.
She knew her life, and she shouldn't hate such an old man who was already in his prime. But she couldn't help it.
The night of the defense of my senior year seven years ago.
Wind and rain, what a bitter scene, to whom to listen to it must be crying in the dark.
Jian Mu was late, so she had to find the old principal's house, knelt on the ground and begged, "Please, I have no choice, my mother lives in the hospital and has no way to live." I really didn't come back to study for this year, you just give me a graduation certificate, my mother really wants to take a look, I can also find a better job, I beg you, please......"
She still returned empty-handed, and the old headmaster was as unmoved as iron-hearted.
He insisted that a senior student is by no means a good student.
In the pouring rain, she sat outside the flower bed for the night. I repeated my mother's words over and over again, and I really wanted to take a look at your graduation certificate.
When I graduated, I didn't have a certificate, I couldn't find a job, and the few companies I wanted to go to required academic qualifications. She started from the bottom, got up early and worked part-time at night, and slept at the door of the nursing home at night.
She couldn't remember how she survived.
In those years, when I closed my eyes, my mother kept crying in front of me, and when I opened my eyes, the hospital was picking people up again and again because of lack of money.
She even ran on the road when she was crying.
I wiped my tears before working part-time, and I had to be slapped by the customer and said that I was crying and mourning.
I finally taught myself how to interpret, and I started working as a translator before I could barely afford to rent a house. But it is still overstretched, and it is indispensable for guests to rub oil, and they are always afraid of being fired.
She wants to find a rich man to marry, who can pay for expensive medical expenses, and she is willing to be good to this person for the rest of her life, as long as she can keep her mother, she will be a cow and a horse to serve his whole family. But she had never met such a good person, and when she heard what happened to her, they all scoffed, and no one wanted to continue.
She has been biased for so long, and she has never deceived each other.
It wasn't until later that Lu Xiu strengthened her. She was then taken care of by Lu Xiufan. In addition to the money given by Lu Xiufan, she also did a lot of part-time jobs. She has calculated for herself that her annual income is also hundreds of thousands.
But she was still poor.
She used to wonder how there could be so much misfortune. As long as you believe in the good, everything will pass.
Later, she learned that life is a chain reaction that does not stop.
In her senior year, her father beat her mother into a mental illness, and her father left directly with his little wife, treating Jian Mu and Jian Mu's younger brother Jian Shi like strangers.
Because of this incident, Jian Shi had a rebellious and perverse personality, and he fought and made trouble outside, completely ruining his future.
Jian Mu had to support the broken home alone.
And Cheng Ao, the ex-boyfriend of college who used to spoil her and provide for her, slapped her the next morning after Jian Mu finally agreed to open the room, saying that she was not worthy of him......
God didn't even give her a chance to ask why it was so unfair.
"Jian Mu, Jian Mu, are you still listening?" Mi Lele called a few times.
"Lele, I won't go to the school celebration. Jian Mu said to Mi Lele.
pinched the phone, and tears soaked the quilt on his body.
When she gets up tomorrow, she is still shrunk in her shell, waiting for God to be gracious and give her a way to live.
Someone once asked Jian Mu what his greatest hope was.
She said she wanted her to be happy.
She has been extravagant all her life, hoping that she can get even momentary happiness.
But in this life, happiness has nothing to do with her.
