"With my conditions, there's no reason for me to give up a top 5 university and travel thousands of miles to a third-rate university to hurt a man I haven't seen for several years and who has nothing to do with me. This can prove that I like Lin An, even if this love seems twisted." Li Huiyue's eyes were firm.
"You still don't understand. Your reappearance in front of Lin An is the trigger for Lin An to recall his painful past. You have already deeply hurt Lin An."
"I know, so I need to give up everything and appear before Lin An, completely atone for my sins from the past, and help Lin An get over his painful past."
Li Huiyue is not Ren Yingying, and she left Theresa speechless after several counterattacks.
Theresa was not a very smart girl. She opened her mouth but was unable to effectively fight back against Li Huiyue.
"Words can't make Li Huiyue give up Lin An. Let's get down to business." At this time, Li Baiwei said calmly.
"I understand." Theresa breathed a sigh of relief, her long, gorgeous golden hair swaying slightly. She calmed down and said, "Li Huiyue, what happened between you and Lin An back then? It's time to come clean."
Li Huiyue did not answer, but stared at Lin An with her beautiful eyes, as if waiting for Lin An to make the decision.
Theresa and Li Baiwei suddenly pulled everyone here and used the atmosphere to force Ren Yingying to tell the truth about the past.
Theresa and Li Baiwei, or the masterminds behind them, Ye Ju and Xu Yaoji, must have other purposes.
Lin An couldn't guess what the specific purpose was, but when asked whether he should mention his past with Li Huiyue, he remained calm: "It's totally fine if you want to reveal your true feelings. It's just a very ordinary past."
Li Huiyue hesitated for a long time before speaking, "This should be a secret between Lin An and me. It's a painful memory for me, but it's also a sweet moment. I should selfishly keep it to myself, but since Lin An wants me to tell him, I'll tell him."
"My father is a man of little education. He made a lot of money from contracting projects in his early years and married my mother, a very beautiful and gentle woman. My father loved her very much and doted on her. After I was born, our family was very happy. But when I was four years old, my father's company had an accident and he lost a lot of money. The company fell into financial difficulties, and my father's uneducated nature began to show. He drank every day and beat my mother violently. Sometimes, when he was drunk, he saw me and cursed me for being a money-loser."
"The meaning of 'losing money' is that my father spent a lot of money to raise me, but when I grew up I had to marry someone else. In my hometown, daughters are considered 'losing money'. My father's subtext was that he wanted a son, but ended up with a daughter. He didn't show it when his career was going well, but now that things are not going well, he's bursting out with his frustration towards my mother. He beats her up, and sometimes he gets so angry that he takes a belt and hits me too."
"I grew up under the shadow of domestic violence. My family was very fraught. Then one day, my father beat me again. I was leaning against the window in pain when I saw two children my age playing in the sand across from my house. They were smiling happily. I knew they were our neighbors' children. One was called Ren Yingying and the other was called Lin An. Seeing them having so much fun, I felt very sad. I wondered why they were so happy while I was so miserable. When I saw their parents take them away with smiles on their faces, I felt even worse. I felt that they had robbed me of my family happiness."
"Then something happened, and I joined them and became their friend. We played happily in the sand together and went to faraway vineyards to steal grapes. I enjoyed the happiness of having friends, but this was only a superficial harmony."
Tears welled up in Li Huiyue's eyes, and she looked towards Lin An with regret. "Secretly, whenever I felt bad about being abused by my father, I would run to Lin An's bedroom and beat him with the belt my father used to beat me. I would beat him the same number of times my father beat me. Sometimes I would burn Lin An's hands with a lighter and prick his legs with a needle, drawing a lot of blood. I kept persecuting Lin An and doing extremely cruel things to him."
"I know that I transferred the harm my father inflicted on me onto Lin An, which was a cruel act. I repent now and want to atone for Lin An's sins. No matter what Lin An does to me, even if it means repeating the atrocities I committed against him, I will agree to it all."
"This is the retribution I deserve."
When Lin An was four or five years old, he was beaten with a whip by girls of the same age, his hands were burned with a lighter, and his legs were pierced with needles.
When the men and women on the scene heard this, their expressions instantly tightened, filled with distress and heartbreak.
There was a heavy and depressing atmosphere on the field.
And at the same time, the term "childhood sweethearts" brings up beautiful images just by hearing the name, such as young boys and girls, the girl sitting on a swing and gently gazing at the boy with her head tilted, and the boy holding the iron chain and gently pushing the swing for the girl.
How many men and women long to have a childhood sweetheart who grew up together.
Lin An has two childhood sweethearts who grew up together, which is enough to make many people envious and cry.
However, Ren Yingying, who is arrogant and likes to PUA Lin An, tortures him mentally. Li Huiyue transfers the pain of domestic violence to Lin An and tortures him physically. Lin An's childhood sweethearts bring him deeper pain than each other.
Isn’t Lin An’s past too tragic?
