"But after college, I started to work hard to lose weight, I had myopia eye surgery, I took off my braces, and then I started to learn makeup and dress, I worked hard to make money, I spent all my money on myself, and I also wanted to be as beautiful and liked as you."

Lin Yutong slowly lowered his eyes and recalled those years.

She didn't have much money at all, and she had to rely on herself after her mother died.

But no matter how hard it is, she has survived, because she wants to prove to everyone that she is better than Zhao Siqing.

This became her obsession until she finally waited for her to return home.

Pity... The reality is always so cruel, she is like a joke from beginning to end, and she has never won once.

After listening to her, Zhao Siqing said softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't think that my sudden departure would have such a big impact on you, and I didn't expect that it would delay your mother's operation......"

Zhao Siqing knew that it was an understatement if she didn't expect it, but no matter what, she should apologize after all.

Facing her gentle eyes, Lin Yutong's eyes were red, and her lips were pursed, as if she was trying her best to control something.

Her hands clenched into fists, and after a moment she turned her head away from her gaze.

Why did she apologize?

She doesn't need her apology!

She caused her mother to lose her life, what is the use of apologizing?

Zhao Siqing said softly: "I know you think I can get everything easily, but it's not. I also gave a lot, and you know, behind all the easy things is actually a lot of effort. ”

Lin Yutong looked at her silently.

Zhao Siqing said again: "As for going abroad back then... I'm sorry, but the situation at that time was beyond my control as a senior in high school. ”

"You're saying you don't want to go at all?" Lin Yutong opened his mouth with red eyes.

"Well, not at all." Zhao Siqing spoke softly.

Lin Yutong chuckled softly, with mockery.

How ridiculous this world is, some people desperately pursue things but can't get anything, and some people disdain things they don't want but they have to be her.

Zhao Siqing said softly: "Do you know Gu Xiaoxi? ”

Lin Yutong was stunned for a few seconds, and said slowly: "I know, the girl who is often with you has short hair and long legs. ”

"Yes." Zhao Siqing responded softly, a little in a trance: "In the third year of high school, Xiaoxi... To protect me, ...... died"

Lin Yutong was stunned for a few seconds, looked at her and said slowly: "But I remember, she committed suicide." ”

"It was suicide, but it was to protect me." Zhao Siqing spoke softly, her eyes were a little dazed.

Lin Yutong didn't make a sound, but she could clearly feel an indescribable sadness and coldness on the woman beside her.

Zhao Siqing was silent for a long time, came back to her senses from her memories, smiled lightly at Lin Yutong, and continued: "Later, in order to protect me, my mother was also afraid that I would avenge Xiaoxi, so she forcibly sent me abroad. I didn't want to, so she locked me up at home, and I don't know how she talked to the school about it. ”

Lin Yutong was dumbfounded for a while, and all the grievances didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Gu Xiaoxi's death she knew that that day, during the flag-raising ceremony, she jumped off the roof of the experimental building wearing a school uniform, fell on the concrete floor, and fell in front of everyone, her flesh and blood blurred.

It's just that at that time, she was thinking about going abroad, and never thought that Zhao Siqing's going abroad would have something to do with it.
