"Mingyan, I said it, don't come again, do you know that as soon as I saw you, I remembered that others said that the daughter I gave birth to was a mute, and they laughed at me openly and secretly."

"Giving birth to you and giving you a life, you should be grateful to us, not to appear in front of us and put shame on our faces."

"You go back, you will be an adult in two years, we don't ask you to grow up to honor us, we just ask you to stay away from us, it's best not to appear again for the rest of your life."

Hearing these ugly words from her parents' mouths, Myeong-yeon lowered her head and turned to leave.

After walking aimlessly for a long time, she paused in her steps and looked around.

Saw a mineral water bottle in front of him.

Mingyan took a few steps forward and squatted down, holding the cold bottle, tears covering her cheeks, crying silently.

A sigh sounded overhead.

Someone rubbed her hair, and her voice was low and gentle, "Wronged? ”

Myeong-yeon heard the other party's voice and threw herself into his arms, not wanting him to see her tears.

"What's there to be wronged about, they don't treat you as family, why should you care about them, silly girl, don't cry." The man whispered.

She knew, but she couldn't help but care what to do?

"Alas, why do you cry so much, every time I come to see you, you cry like this, can you give my brother a smile?"

"Don't cry, if you cry again, my brother will ignore you."

"Let me tell you a joke, I have a little girl, she likes to cry very much, every time she cries, she is ugly, you say, why does the little girl love to cry so much."

Mingyan was not stupid, she knew who he was talking about, put away her tears, and snorted and pinched his waist.

"It's boring, it doesn't hurt at all." The man said softly: "I'll tell you, because the little girl is a stupid girl, she always sheds tears for not being worthy of others, silly girl, they don't deserve it." ”

Myeong-yeon stood up and gave him the gift she had bought for her brother.

The man opened the package and smiled, "Give me a toy car, you treat me as a child." ”

Mingyan blushed slightly and gestured at him a few times.

The man understood the sign language, "It's okay, I don't dislike it, you go home first, I still have something to do, I'll see you another day." ”

Mingyan was a little reluctant to let him go, and every time he left, he had to disappear for a long time.

But she has no reason to let her eldest brother stay for her, the relationship between the two is very strange, they say they are friends, but they don't even know what each other's names and identities are.

I have known each other for several years and have met no more than twenty times.

This erratic warmth made Mingyan unable to grasp it.

She is like a person standing on a snow-capped mountain looking at the nearby volcano, knowing how warm it is, but she doesn't dare to approach the other party, so she can only wait for the occasional eruption of the volcano to drop some warmth to her.

Saying goodbye to her eldest brother, Myeong-yeon walked in the direction of the rental house, passing by a pond of fish ponds and stopping.

There were several drink bottles in the fishpond, and she wanted to catch them.

She has often picked up scraps and sold them for money since she was a child, and of course, this is also her side hustle now.

After all, she is not yet an adult, and she can't go to work in a regular company, so she can only work as a temporary worker in some stores.

The bottle is not far away, close to the shore.

Mingyan picked up the wooden sticks on the ground and tried to use them to catch them.

However, I don't know if I didn't stand firm or if I used too much force.

The whole person was poured into the water.

There was no one around, and she was still dumb and couldn't open her mouth to shout.

The water gradually flooded her head, and consciousness slowly drained.

Myeong-yeon is .......

drowned.
