On the Sunday before the deadline, Wen Qiuning found Niu Shengyun and invited him to her cabin.

When he said that, Wen Qiuning felt that he had lost his personal dignity and moral soul.

Niu Shengyun laughed, and his laughter was wild and arrogant.

He said, "Wen Zhiqing, I've suffered at your hands before. I'm worried about your little house."

Wen Qiuning lowered his eyelids to block her view, as if to hide the shame in his heart, "Where do you want to be?"

"There's a dormitory for me in the village office."

"I want to see the letter of introduction first."

"I'll show you when the time comes. Come over when it's dark."

Wen Qiuning sat in front of the cabin, watching the sun slowly set in the west. As the last ray of afterglow faded away, the little light in her heart also went out.

She walked towards the village office with firm steps.

She has no other way to go except this one!

She was very calm, like a revolutionary martyr who was about to be beheaded, ready to die.

The village office was pitch black, with only a faint light coming through one window.

She picked up a brick, placed it gently at the door, and then pushed the door open.

Niu Shengyun was sitting on the bed, on which lay an unfilled letter of introduction and the village's official seal.

Wen Qiuning's eyes were fixed on the letter of introduction, and she couldn't help but clench her fists.

"Wen Zhiqing, come in." Niu Shengyun invited her with a smile.

Wen Qiuning walked in and closed the door.

Niu Shengyun said, "You can see that after tonight, this letter of introduction will be yours."

Wen Qiuning lowered her head and looked at everything in the room secretly. There was nothing in the room except a table and a kerosene lamp.

Niu Shengyun said worriedly, "Wen Zhiqing, give me your schoolbag first."

After all, she stabbed him with the knife in her schoolbag last time, so he was worried.

Wen Qiuning handed the schoolbag over, and Niu Shengyun checked it. There was nothing in it except a few books and a flashlight.

He threw his schoolbag onto the ground and said condescendingly, "Take it off yourself."

Wen Qiuning was like a puppet at this moment, without any emotions or thoughts.

In late November in Changshan County, the temperature was only two or three degrees Celsius, and Wen Qiuning was wearing a lot of clothes.

She obediently took off her outer clothes and trousers, leaving only her underwear.

Now, Niu Shengyun was completely relieved. He patted the bed and said gently, "Come here."

Wen Qiuning walked over and just sat down on the edge of the bed when Niu Shengyun pushed her down on the bed.

Niu Shengyun pressed on her and impatiently stripped off her clothes.

Wen Qiuning opened her eyes, but they were cold, dull, and lifeless. She was like a dead body with its eyes open, letting Niu Shengyun's stinky mouth gnaw on her shoulders, neck, and chest.

It would be nice if it were a corpse, at least it wouldn't have to breathe.

The smell of Niu Shengyun made her feel sick!

Niu Shengyun excitedly took off his pants and Wen Qiuning saw it.

She had seen this thing many times when she was a child, and every time she saw it, she thought it was ugly and disgusting!

Even more so now!

This was the moment when Niu Shengyun's defense was the weakest, and Wen Qiuning kicked him there.

Niu Shengyun covered his hands and fell on the bed, screaming in pain and cursing dirty words.

Wen Qiuning quickly stood up, ran to the door, picked up the brick and hit him on the head without hesitation.

The wailing stopped immediately and blood flowed from Niu Shengyun's head.

Wen Qiuning wasn't sure if he was dead.

Just die. If such a bad man lives, more women will be persecuted.

At worst, she would pay with her own life. There was no point in living in this world anyway.

She quickly put on her clothes, picked up the letter of introduction, and took out a book from her bag.

She spread the letter of introduction flat on the book, then picked up the village office seal and carefully stamped it.

She packed up her books and letter of introduction, put on her backpack, and left the village office without hesitation.

She carried a flashlight and walked alone through the fields, over the mountains, and past the cemetery. She had no fear in her heart.

I don’t know when, but light snow started to fall from the sky and the world was dark.

But she seemed to see the dawn, and she walked towards that light!

She walked without stopping, and the snow on her body melted, soaking her clothes, which were then frozen stiff by the cold temperature.

We walked and walked all night long.

The rosy glow pierced through the clouds, and the golden light illuminated the earth. Wen Qiuning felt the long-lost sunshine and warmth.

She took a tractor to the county town, bought a ticket, and left that place forever.

She took the letter of introduction that she filled out and stamped herself and registered in her hometown of Suzhou.

She chose Beijing because she thought it was the best place and no one would dare to cause trouble here.

After the police told Wen Qiuning to be careful in the near future, they left.

Wen Qiuning closed the doors and windows of the bookstore and sat on the bed in a daze.

She is scared!

At the same time, she also knew clearly that fear would not help and she had to face it bravely!

She used to worry that if others knew about it, she would not be able to continue her studies.

Now that everyone knows, she doesn't care anymore.

The worst that could happen is that Niu Shengyun would find him and beat him to death.

When she left that place, she was prepared to sacrifice one life for another!

The next morning, Wen Qiuning went to Yu Xiangnian's house again and told her about this.

Yu Xiangnian asked Wen Qiuning to live at home, which was the safest place.

Wen Qiuning refused.

On the one hand, the police were not sure whether Niu Shengyun would run to Beijing. On the other hand, it was uncertain when Niu Shengyun would be caught, so it was impossible for her to live in Yu Xiangnian's house for a long time.

Besides, the bookstore will open tomorrow and she has to earn money to support herself.

Yu Xiangnian couldn't keep her, so he could only come to the bookstore to see her every day.

A week passed peacefully.

On Sunday morning, Yu Xiangyang took An An out to play and met Wu Xiaomin not far from the door.

Yu Xiangyang cursed in his heart: He must be seeing a ghost, he runs into her wherever he goes.

What he didn't know was that this was something Wu Xiaomin had been planning for a long time.

Wu Xiaomin learned from her uncle that Yu Xiangyang had been admitted to the Army School. She then inquired about the school's schedule and, with great difficulty, asked someone to find out Yu Xiangnian's home.

This is how we met by chance.

Yu Xiangyang, whose eyesight is 5.2 in both eyes and who can see the bull's eye fifty meters away, ignored the woman ten meters away and walked in the opposite direction while holding An An.

How could Wu Xiaomin let him leave? She shouted loudly for Yu Xiangyang.

Yu Xiangyang, who had keen hearing and could distinguish the croaking of frogs and toads, turned a deaf ear to Wu Xiaomin's calls and quickened his pace as he walked forward.

Wu Xiaomin gritted her teeth in anger and ran forward quickly to chase Yu Xiangyang, shouting as she chased him, "Yu Xiangyang, wait for me!"

It attracted the attention of passers-by, and it looked like a man was throwing a tantrum and trying to leave with his child, with the woman chasing after him.

Yu Xiangyang took a few steps and suddenly stopped.

He remembered something.
