Li Miaomiao quickly left the three girls, her heart still pounding as she recalled how she had been bullied by An Qianqian a lot when she was a child.
There were six girls in my class at the beginning, and five of them formed a gang. An Qianqian and a girl named Zhang Xue took the lead in bullying me and spreading rumors everywhere.
As a result, I couldn't make friends and could only play with the girls in Class 2. However, they wanted to kill me and even tried to provoke the girls in Class 2.
Li Miaomiao felt a headache when she thought about this. Although Zhang Xue had dropped out of school many years ago, got married and had children, her hatred for Zhang Xue was as strong as before.
"Miaomiao, why are you here?" Mom's voice.
"Mom." Miaomiao cried.
"Miaomiao, I'm sorry. Mom hit you today. Does it hurt?" Mom touched Miaomiao's face, her face also full of tears.
"It doesn't hurt at all, Mom. Why don't you let me tell them? Look how much they went beyond what they did, and you even hit me." Miaomiao said as she twisted her body.
"Those are your aunt and your cousin. How can you talk to them like that?" Mom retracted her pitying tone and regained her original maternal dignity.
"But have they been good aunts and cousins? We respect them, but do they respect us? Do they treat us as relatives?
"Mom, look at how your aunt talks to you and me. It's the same every year. Are they allowed to bully us and not allow us to fight back?"
Miaomiao felt very aggrieved and finally told her mother about it this time.
"How come you're becoming more and more ignorant as you grow older? When you were little, you were so obedient and everyone praised you for being a good kid. How come you've become like this when you've grown up?"
Miaomiao's tears flowed again, she felt that her mother was not making sense.
"Okay, I won't be going back for that meal. Let's go home after they leave." Mom had a complaining look on her face.
Miaomiao really wanted to send a message to Jiang Yin and say, "I want to die."
After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Miaomiao returned home and finally turned on her mobile phone. She edited the three words “I want to die”, hesitated for a moment, and then deleted them.
Then she opened her Moments, edited a line like “I miss you, at least I miss you now” and posted it.
Li Miaomiao didn't want to go to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year, so she thought of Wu Li, whom she met yesterday, and sent a WeChat message to Wu Li.
"Can you help me? I don't want to go to New Year's greetings."
Not long after, Wu Li called and Miaomiao answered. Wu Li said, "Miaomiao, please come to my house. My cousin came to my house today and asked me to tutor him, but I have forgotten a lot of the knowledge. Please come and help me. I can only ask you for help. No one else can do it."
Miaomiao didn't hang up the phone and said to her mother, "Mom, Wu Li wants me to go to her house for something. I'll go."
"What's up?"
"Auntie, I asked Miaomiao to tutor my brother. He doesn't know many things."
Mom thought about it and agreed: "Go ahead, and be careful on the road."
Miaomiao was finally free and came to Wu Li's home. This time, only Wu Li and her parents were at home, and no one else came.
Wu Li's parents warmly entertained Miaomiao, and Miaomiao ate snacks while listening to Wu Li talk.
"Miaomiao, I saw you yesterday and you seemed to be in poor health. What's wrong with you?" Wu Li asked.
"You don't know, it's really better not to eat that New Year's Eve dinner. They kicked me out."
"ah?"
Miaomiao told Wu Li everything that happened last night, and Wu Li expressed her sympathy for Miaomiao.
"Wu Li, I really want to die. I want to die right now. I feel like there's no way out for me in that family.
My mother turned her back on me and refused to help me, even though it was clearly them who were bullying us.
My father and my brother also stayed out of it, as if they didn’t know what was going on.”
"Don't you like An Qianqian?" Wu Li asked this question suddenly, and Miaomiao was frightened.
Miaomiao thought: Didn’t you say that you didn’t like An Qianqian? Why were you with her last night?
Wu Li spoke again: "Yesterday Meihong came to me and said she wanted to spend the New Year at my house. I don't know why she insisted on bringing An Qianqian with her.
She wanted to go, and I was too embarrassed to refuse. But when she got to my house, she made a mess, and I was really annoyed."
Miaomiao thought back to the time in elementary school when she, Wu Li, and An Qianqian were competing for first place. An Qianqian was pretty and had good grades. Many boys in the class liked her, and her family was well-off, but she was very pretentious and liked to bully others, mainly Miaomiao.
The ones who took the lead in bullying Miaomiao at that time were Zhang Xue and An Qianqian. Miaomiao remembered that when she had just entered the first grade of elementary school, her kindergarten classmate Guo Lingling was separated from her and assigned to Class 2.
Many of my friends in kindergarten have gone to Class 2, and there are also two in Class 3, who also have companions. I am the only one in Class 1, feeling lonely and miserable.
Who would have thought that as soon as I arrived at the new class, I would meet a troublemaker like An Qianqian, who would compete with me to answer questions in class, as if we were competing.
Thinking of this, Miaomiao felt tired and had a headache.
"Miaomiao, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Miaomiao in a daze, Wu Li handed her a glass of water.
Miaomiao took the water and took a sip, then put the cup down and said, "Wu Li, I'm so tired, I want to die."
Suddenly she was reminded by her own words, would faking her death allow her to leave these people?
She was very excited and pulled Wu Li to her side. "Wu Li, tell me, can I fake my death and let these relatives think I'm dead? Then I can go out and do whatever I want, and they won't be able to find any trouble with me anymore."
Wu Li smiled and said, "How can you be so naive? I'm surprised you came up with such a method, but it's too unrealistic."
Hearing the word "unrealistic", Miaomiao remembered that he met a man on Soul last year and asked her what she was doing. She said she was working and wanted to take the postgraduate entrance examination or get a civil service degree. The man then said this.
"That's not very realistic. Think about what your university experience was like. You're already working in this company, so can you still take the postgraduate entrance exam or get a job? If you could take the postgraduate entrance exam and then get a job, you wouldn't be working in this company."
Miaomiao was so angry that she started to curse at him while playing the piano. What a complete idiot.
"Miaomiao, why do I feel that you are absent-minded today? Is there something on your mind?" Wu Li asked with concern.
Miaomiao scratched his head and said to Wu Li, "Wu Li, I feel like anyone around me bullies me and everyone looks down on me. I really feel like my life is so meaningless. I want to die, at least I want to die now."
Wu Li held her hand and said, "Don't listen to them. They can't represent you."
"But I really can't stand it anymore. I feel like I'm just like modern China, at the mercy of others. It's so humiliating."
Wu Li held Miaomiao's hand tightly: "Believe in yourself."
Miaomiao thought: What else can I believe in? I want to die now.
