Chapter 32 Where is my blood? I don't know.
Where is my blood?
I have no idea.
Xu Luxi's eyelashes trembled irregularly, and she half-closed her eyes, and lowered her head quietly. Her soft face seemed to be glued by a layer of invisible glue, and every curve was reluctant, but still existed.
She tried hard to suppress her trembling body. Her jaw was clenched, and her teeth grasped the tip of her tongue and bit it hard. The bright red blood slowly seeped out, and the taste of rust instantly filled her entire mouth, which brought her a bit of clarity.
She slightly turned sideways to block Gu Ao Yu's sight, subconsciously not wanting her to see her like this.
Tolerate!
Tolerate!!
Tolerate!!!
Countless words of "忍" roared and danced in her mind, constantly echoing, carving bloody marks in her brain like a nightmare, tightly binding all her unconventional thoughts and eating them up.
"Xiaoxi, your father is dead. From now on, we are the only two orphans and widows left in the world. You must be obedient and sensible."
"Xiaoxi, those kids are still young, they haven't grown up and they don't know much, don't bother with them. Your mom is incompetent, and your dad is dead. The neighbors all look down on us, but they are the only ones who are willing to play with you and take care of you. Just bear with it, they will like you in a few years."
"Xiaoxi, it's normal for a child whose father has died to be bullied. Just bear with it and don't resist. You can't afford to offend their parents, and it will be over soon."
"Is it because you are not obedient and docile that they don't like you? Why don't they bully others but only you? Don't complain to me about trivial matters all day long."
"Xiaoxi, if you don't work hard to climb up, you will only be trampled underfoot and bullied. You must study hard, get into a good university, and make a name for yourself in the future."
"Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, mom has hooked up with a rich bachelor. He's rich and powerful, and most importantly, he's willing to marry mom and support us. It's just that his daughter has a bad temper. If she gets against you, just bear with her. Wait until mom completely wins over your uncle Gu, and you won't be bullied anymore."
"Stream... Stream... Stream..." Countless voices, some scolding, some comforting, some crying, lingered in Xu Luxi's head.
She raised her head woodenly and looked at Gu Ao Yu's cold face. It was like countless moments of resignation. He smiled at her tenderly, and there was an endless wilderness in his amber eyes. She put down her fist that she had unconsciously raised in the air.
"Wait, wait a little longer, until I get into college."
"If you don't fight back, I'll fight for you."
Gu Ao Yu suddenly raised his right arm, and with a whistling sound, he smashed it at the corner of the Shamatte's mouth with lightning speed, leaving a wound that was extremely similar to Xu Luxi's. Along with a miserable scream, hot blood splashed out.
The violent and erratic bad boy described by the mother overlapped with the rebellious and cold boy in front of him.
The stubborn restraint in her heart trembled, and a tiny crack appeared. The weak flame burned the thick iron chain, and Xu Luxi trembled, and the flame swayed in her eyes.
This was the first time anyone had told her she could resist.
"Ao Yu..." Xu Luxi called her softly and raised his hand to touch her.
Gu Ao Yu kicked open the tightly closed door with murderous intent and walked out without looking back.
Xu Luxi froze in place, slowly retracting the hands that wanted to touch her, and the flame in his eyes dimmed a little.
She doesn't like her.
"The teacher is here! The teacher is here!" Along with the exclamations of the students outside, the students who were originally watching the excitement dispersed, and all the relevant people were taken into the office.
"You came here just after the school bullying, pretending." Gu Ao Yu put her hands in her pockets and walked casually behind the teacher at the front, acting as if she was the leader.
"Gu Ao Yu! It's you again! You said you came to the office a few times a week. You are still young and you don't learn your lesson. You lead others to bully other good children, right? Ask your parents to come over."
The dean of studies, with a serious look on her face, made several calls with the phone book, but no one answered the calls. She had no choice but to make another call, and a female voice sounded in her ear.
"Xu Luxi provoked you, and you bullied the new student! Bullying her is not enough, you also beat your own subordinates like this, is that acceptable?" Gu Ao Yu picked his ears and yawned loudly under the scolding of the dean.
"Teacher, classmate Gu didn't bully me. She fought with them to protect me." Xu Luxi described the general course of events in a few words.
The dean looked suspiciously at the bruised and battered shamattes. The leader of the shamattes patted his chest in anger.
"Everyone has their own share of responsibility. We bullied Xu Luxi. We have long severed ties with Gu Ao Yu. It is not her turn to take the blame. Gu Ao Yu, just wait for us. We will not let you go."
Gu Aoyu glanced at them with disdain, crossed his hands, twisted them randomly, and made a clicking sound. The Shamattes were startled by this and hurriedly retreated behind the dean.
The dean was stunned and looked at Gu Ao Yu in surprise. She knew this child's name since she entered the school. Fighting and bullying classmates were commonplace. She even had connections with gangs outside and participated in several gunfights. If the teacher said it was too harsh, she would bring people to block the teacher's door.
She had been told and scolded, but she just wouldn't change. She didn't care even if she was asked to stay home from school, but her father had invested in a teaching building, and the principal specifically told her to let her go.
She called her father several times, and her father beat her with a wooden stick in public. Later, she got into more and more trouble, and her father didn't want to take care of her anymore. He transferred some money to the school as compensation and left her to fend for herself.
"Ao Yu, the teacher didn't ask the reason clearly this time and blamed you wrongly. I just called your mother and she said she would be here soon and the teacher will explain it to her." The dean of studies softened his expression and spoke to Gu Ao Yu in a rare kind tone.
Gu Ao Yu's face turned even uglier when he heard this, and he replied coldly: "I don't have a mother."
As for who was coming, she glanced at Xu Luxi.
Song Yu rushed over without even looking at Gu Ao Yu, and rushed directly to Xu Luxi. She gently stroked the wound beside Xu Luxi's mouth, her face full of heartache. Then, she raised her head with red eyes and burst into tears.
"Ao Yu, no matter how much you dislike me as your stepmother, Xiaoxi is innocent. She is your sister. How can you bully her like this? If you have any dissatisfaction, come to me. I will report this matter to your father."
"Mom, it's not like that." Xu Luxi raised her head and explained again in front of everyone what she had said before. Even though Song Yu was secretly pinching the soft flesh on Xu Luxi's waist, she endured the pain and never stopped.
"Ms. Song, I misunderstood before and called you over without knowing the reason. I'm sorry. Ao Yu actually likes Lu Xi as a sister. For her, he even broke up with his friends and beat up those who bullied her."
Song Yu blinked awkwardly when he heard that, and smiled at Gu Ao Yu in a flattering manner.
What the hell is going on? Seeing that the subsequent events had nothing to do with her, Gu Ao Yu curled her lips speechlessly and walked out without looking back.
"Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu..." Song Yu was chasing after Gu Ao Yu in high heels.
The clattering sound of footsteps on the ground made her frown. Seeing that she couldn't get rid of it, Gu Ao Yu turned around and raised her eyebrows impatiently:
"What's up?"
"Xiao Yu, it was Auntie who wronged you. Auntie is here to apologize to you. This matter is not a big deal, you see..." Song Yu bowed several times to Gu Ao Yu in a low voice.
Given Gu Ao Yu's personality, the probability of her complaining to her father is extremely low, but if she blurts it out during an argument... When Gu Zhaoyu married her, he specifically asked her to keep an eye on Gu Ao Yu.
"Auntie, put away your little thoughts. Don't come to provoke me." Gu Ao Yu raised her eyes, her dark eyes were blue and cold. She slowly approached Song Yu, and smiled mockingly at Song Yu's suddenly stiff face.
"Aunt, tell me, which woman is my father sleeping with now? Why did he marry you when he had so many lovers? Of course it's because you are the only one who can tolerate me." Gu Ao Yu leaned over to Song Yu's ear, and cruel words floated out of Zhang He's mouth.
"It's just for money. So, instead of trying so hard to please him, you might as well please me. From now on, everything he has will be mine. Even if he has a bunch of illegitimate children out there. Think it over carefully." Gu Ao Yu patted Song Yu's shoulder gently and said earnestly.
Gu Ao Yu actually didn't hate the stepmother who came in later. Her father had been messing around with women when her mother was still alive, and she didn't know who to hate. Besides, how could she blame others for not being able to control her lower body?
Later, I met Song Yu. Her mother had been dead for many years and the two had no relationship.
Her stepmother is materialistic, money-worshiping, philistine, and opportunistic. She has all the qualities that she likes and dislikes. Even so, she still feels that she is better than her mother and much more real than her father.
She knew from the first moment she saw her that Song Yu was after money, and Gu Zhaoyu probably knew it as well.
Such people are the easiest to control.
In the dead of night, Xu Luxi gently applied ointment to the pinch marks on her waist. Her amber eyes were inexplicably stained with a layer of mist. She pursed her lips, picked up the knife in her pocket, and slashed at her arm cruelly, leaving another bloody mark on her scarred arm.
Beads of cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and with trembling hands she pushed away the pile of books pressing on the corner of the table.
The mottled corners of the book, the nail marks and knife marks were randomly distributed, and countless words of "忍" were densely spread all over it, crooked, deep or shallow. Every stroke was like a silent catharsis.
Xu Luxi held the knife and carefully drew another mark on it. Then, he paused his arm and put down another stroke at the starting point of the stroke.
She carved a unique symbol, the word "Gu".
A blood-stained word "Gu".
