Su Mingfu bent over and dry heaved in pain.
Wang Qiang and two others grabbed his hands and feet and pinned him to the ground.
Zhao Xiaogang roughly pulled down his pants, revealing his pale thighs.
"I heard your brother was being used as a woman in prison?"
Zhao Xiaogang whipped Su Mingfu's thigh with a tree branch.
"Would you like to try it too?"
The branches scratched my skin, leaving red marks.
Su Mingfu gritted his teeth, trying not to cry out loud.
He knew that crying would only excite the abuser.
"It's boring."
After whipping him a dozen times, Zhao Xiaogang seemed to have grown tired of the game.
"Let's try a different way of playing."
He took a glass bottle out of his bag, which contained a murky liquid.
Do you know what this is?
Zhao Xiaogang shook the bottle.
"Pee. I've been saving it up for three days."
Su Mingfu opened his eyes wide in terror and struggled to get up, but was held down firmly.
"Drink it, and I'll let you go today."
Zhao Xiaogang unscrewed the bottle cap, and a pungent smell immediately filled the air.
Please...don't...
Su Mingfu's voice trembled.
Zhao Xiaogang sneered.
"Either drink, or we'll strip you naked and tie you up at the school gate. Choose."
Tears finally streamed down my face uncontrollably.
Su Mingfu closed his eyes and slightly opened his mouth.
The icy liquid poured into his mouth, and the nauseating taste made his stomach cramp.
He forced himself to swallow, afraid that choking would bring more punishment.
"Good boy."
Zhao Xiaogang patted his face, as if praising a dog.
"Remember to attend the 'study group' on time tomorrow."
The four men strode away, leaving Su Mingfu slumped on the ground.
He coughed violently, trying to expel the stench from his mouth, but most of the liquid had already gone into his stomach.
His throat was burning, and his face was covered in tears and snot.
Half an hour later, Su Mingfu managed to straighten his clothes and staggered out of the grove.
It was getting late, and there was almost no one left on campus.
He went to the water tap by the playground and frantically rinsed his mouth.
By the time I got home, it was completely dark.
Su Mingfu quietly slipped into the kitchen, wanting to get some water to wash off the marks on his body.
"Mingfu? Why are you so late?"
The voice of the father, Su Jianguo, came from the living room.
"I...I'm studying at school."
Su Mingfu tried his best to keep his voice steady.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
"have eaten."
This lie has been repeated for several days.
During this period, due to the approaching college entrance examination, Su Mingfu no longer lives on campus.
Su Jianguo didn't ask any further questions.
Su Mingfu breathed a sigh of relief, quickly finished his shower, and returned to his room.
He locked the door and finally couldn't hold back his silent tears.
The next morning, Su Mingfu carefully examined the wounds on his body in front of the mirror.
The red marks on my thigh have turned bluish-purple, but fortunately there are no other obvious injuries.
He put on a long-sleeved shirt and trousers, even though the weather was starting to get warm.
In class, Su Mingfu was in a daze, and the teacher's voice seemed to come from a very far place.
His stomach was still upset, and his throat was sore.
"Su Mingfu! Answer the question!"
The math teacher tapped the blackboard.
Su Mingfu stood up blankly, his mind a complete void.
Snickers filled the classroom, especially from Zhao Xiaogang's group.
"I'm sorry, I...I didn't hear the question clearly."
Su Mingfu kept his head down.
"Go stand at the back of the classroom!"
The math teacher said sternly.
"Students these days have absolutely no discipline."
Tears of humiliation welled up in her eyes.
Su Mingfu silently walked to the back of the classroom and stood facing the wall.
He could feel Zhao Xiaogang and the others staring at him.
When the bell rang, Su Mingfu quickly returned to his seat, trying to avoid any potential conflict.
But Zhao Xiaogang had already led his men to surround them.
"Even good students get punished by standing in the corner?"
Zhao Xiaogang deliberately spoke loudly.
"Are you too tired from doing naughty things at night?"
The surrounding students burst into laughter.
Su Mingfu's hands trembled slightly as he packed his schoolbag, and he didn't dare to look up.
"Speak up!"
Zhao Xiaogang suddenly slammed his fist on the table.
"Have you become mute?"
Su Mingfu gritted his teeth and remained silent.
He knew that any response would become an excuse for further bullying.
"Trying to act high and mighty, huh?"
Zhao Xiaogang grabbed Su Mingfu by the collar.
"Let's go to the woods after school and do something exciting today."
After saying that, he gave a hard push, and Su Mingfu fell to the ground along with his chair.
Laughter erupted again in the classroom, but no one offered a helping hand.
After school, Su Mingfu hid in a toilet stall until the campus gradually quieted down.
He hoped to escape today's "study group," but Zhao Xiaogang clearly wouldn't let him off easily.
"I've found you."
The toilet door was suddenly kicked open, and Wang Qiang's face appeared in the crack.
"You think hiding will work?"
Su Mingfu was dragged out of the cubicle, while Zhao Xiaogang and two others waited by the sink.
"Running away will be punished."
Zhao Gang took out a roll of tape.
"Let's play the 'mummy' game today."
The next half hour was the longest moment of Su Mingfu's life.
He was wrapped in layers of tape and fixed to the ground like a mummy.
Zhao Xiaogang and others drew on his face with chalk, poured water into his collar, and even used a lighter to heat the edge of the tape.
"I heard that if duct tape burns, it will stick to your skin."
