"If you dare to say that, I'll beat you to death. You're just a money-loser anyway."

"Go ahead and tell her. Tell her what you've been through with me. Make her worry about you and finally get mad at you! She has cancer anyway. She'll die sooner or later. If she dies sooner, I can get the insurance money!"

After her grandmother got cancer, Lin Yuan and Fang Hui could no longer live in the city and had to return to the county town at the suggestion of their teacher. With the only hope, Lin Yuan went to find her so-called parents.

Her parents took a few glances at her and then reluctantly let her stay. She could stay but Fang Hui could not. No matter how Lin Yuan begged for mercy, Lin Guoshuang just wouldn't agree. Instead, he changed his mind and agreed to find a factory for Fang Hui, providing food and accommodation, on the condition that Fang Hui would give them 80% of the salary she earned here.

Fang Wei gritted her teeth and agreed for Lin Yuan.

In a garment factory, I work twelve hours a day and earn 3,000 yuan a month.

In this way, Lin Yuan moved into the so-called family's home, a one-bedroom, two-living-room house in a tube-shaped building. Her parents occupied one room and Lin Yaozu occupied another. The house, which looked like it was 80 square meters, actually had no place for Lin Yuan to stay because they didn't know she would come.

Lin Guoshuang and the others had not prepared anything, so they made a makeshift bed for her on the balcony. It was a discarded folding bed that creaked when she sat down on it. While making the bed, Lin's mother muttered, "Why did you have to come at this time? This is not the way to have a good meal!"

Lin Yuan stood silently in the living room, looking at this home that was incompatible with her in every way without saying a word. Her mother Lin's complaining voice reached her ears.

"It's so annoying. Can you please stop standing there like a wooden stake? You're blocking me from watching TV!" After Lin Yaozu said this, he raised his foot and kicked Lin Yuan in the butt.

Lin Yaozu is only about five years younger than Lin Yuan. He is now in his teens and in puberty. After kicking her, he smiled and said, "Hey, you have a nice butt. It's much better than the ones I've seen. Why don't you come out with me once in a while? I'll introduce you to my brothers. My brothers are very rich. If you follow them like this, the money they give you will be enough for you to rent a house outside, and you don't have to live on my balcony like a poor dog."

Lin Yuan didn't react. After being kicked, she just moved her body two steps to the side, trying not to block the TV.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Lin Yaozu curled his lips and said, "Are you a bitch? I gave you a chance to stop being a dog, but you insisted on licking Bilian like a dog. What's wrong? You shamelessly live in my house, are you waiting for the old woman to share the money? I tell you, it's impossible. When the old woman was alive, she gave all the money to you. When she dies, the insurance money must be given to me. I am the incense that can continue the Lin family's lineage. You are just a money-loser!"

"Bah, a money-loser wants to share the family property. Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? Do you think you are worthy enough to snatch things from me? I tell you, if I am not happy, you don't even have the right to sleep on the balcony here!"

Lin Yuan thought so.

If Lin Yaozu was unhappy, she really had no right to sleep on the balcony. She looked up at the bed on the balcony that was covered with worn-out quilt.

Mother Lin came over and glared at her: "You are a sister, and you don't even know how to give in to your brother. What are you fighting with him for?"

"You are not sensible at all. I don't know how your grandmother taught you."

Lin Yuan pursed her lips and said nothing.

Obviously no one listened to her explanation, and she had no intention of explaining. She did have her own plans and was staying here waiting to get her share of the insurance money.

Her grandmother told her to do it.

When she followed Fang Hui to leave, her grandmother pulled her into the house, held her hand and told her to come back when she died, to use all kinds of excuses to stay in this house, and to invite all relatives and friends to the scene and tell them about the insurance money. Only in this way could she get the insurance money from Lin Guoshuang and others. With this insurance money, she and Fang Hui could survive at an age when they were powerless.

She was unwilling to do so. Grandma touched her head and said, "Yuanyuan, live on. Even if you and Huihui can only curl up and live slowly, you must do everything you can to live on. Only by living can you have the qualification to pursue happiness. Don't leave this world before you get happiness. It would be not worth it to come here."

She listens to her grandmother.

She stayed at the Lin family.

She did not go to school during this period because Lin Guoshuang did not allow her to go to school. He said that the most important task for a girl was to find a good man to marry, and that reading only meant recognizing a few words. Reading so many books would easily make one's mind wild, and when one's mind was wild, one would always have wild ideas.

A month later.

There were men coming to the house all the time, of all ages, from twenty to fifty.

Lin Yuan is the protagonist, and these men are her blind date partners. She looks at them with their big yellow teeth bared, as if they are looking at a commodity and looking at her.

She ducked from their touch, stood up and overturned the table.

Lin Guoshuang sent the man away with kind words, and after coming back, he suddenly took two steps towards her, with a cold and fierce look in his eyes. He raised his foot and kicked her calf hard. She suddenly fell forward and hit her head on the door. Lin Guoshuang grabbed her calf from behind and dragged her into the house.

There is a special chair in the room. After she arrived, Lin Guoshuang asked his worker friend to make it the next day. It is equipped with electricity.

Lin Yuan was forcibly tied to a chair and the electric switch was turned on.

Her body began to twitch and her shoulders shrugged. In just five minutes, her hair was wet with sweat, her face turned pale with pain, and her eye sockets were bloodshot.

But she still bit her lips stubbornly, unwilling to loosen her teeth and say what Lin Guoshuang wanted to hear. At this time, Lin Guoshuang would sigh, "You are a good child in every way, but you are too stubborn. You are so stubborn that you imitate your grandmother. It's really hard to discipline you."

While talking, she turned the electric current device in her hand to full power. Lin Yuan's body went from constant trembling to strange twists. She couldn't control the saliva flowing out of her mouth, mixed with the blood from her bitten lips, and her eyes couldn't control the tears.

In just a moment, she was like a dead fish pulled out of the water, all wet, while Lin's mother and Lin Yaozu sat in the living room eating melon seeds, indifferent to everything in the room. Sometimes, Lin's mother would grab melon seeds and walk to the door of the room, spitting out the shells and saying,

"Old Lin, I think you are too soft-hearted and you didn't hit her hard enough. Otherwise, would she have done something like flipping the table today?"

"And you, you silly girl, are so ignorant. Did you know that the man today is a small boss? His family is rich. You can marry him and enjoy a comfortable life. If you give him a son, you will be worshipped as the ancestor of their family. When you can stand firm with your son, your brother will have everything he wants. But you overturned the table and drove him away!"

"I see you are born with a lowly fate, and you won't even enjoy the happiness you are given!"

Gu Yanli turned around slowly. He felt that all the blood in his body had frozen at this moment. Fear and heartache were clamoring in his body, making him unable to breathe like a shackle. His tall body was bent in a strange posture in front of Chen Lin. After a long time, Chen Lin heard this man who was as powerful as an emperor, his voice trembling: "How many years have these things been entangled with her?"
