"You...how did you get here?"
She stared in terror at the man with the fierce face in front of her, her whole body trembling with fear.
"What? You little brat, you don't recognize me anymore?"
Chen Qiang grabbed Su Peipei's hair, dragged her to the ground with a cold smile, and kicked her hard in the stomach.
Su Peipei cried out in pain, clutching her lower abdomen and curling up into a ball.
Chen Qiang, still not satisfied after kicking her, tore her clothes to shreds with a tearing sound, grabbed a leather whip, and began to beat her mercilessly.
He yelled and cursed as he hit her: "Damn it, you bitch, you dare to scheme against me with that bastard, I'll beat you to death!"
"Ah! Help! Help! Murder!"
Su Peipei screamed at the top of her lungs, but Chen Qiang was like a demon from hell, staring at her with ferocious eyes, while his actions became even more ruthless.
She huddled in a ball, trembling all over, as terrifying memories buried deep in her soul surged forth like a tidal wave.
Chen Qiang was originally her husband; the two met through an introduction.
His family was well-off, and his salary was high, so Su Peipei's parents were very satisfied.
Although Su Peipei didn't really like him, she saw that he had a good job and was very generous to her, so she reluctantly agreed.
The two got married after dating for less than three months.
Before marriage, he treated her very well. He would buy her anything she wanted without hesitation and would give her money from time to time.
But soon after they got married, she discovered that this man was a devil.
He would beat her whenever she was upset. At first, he would just slap her a couple of times and kick her a couple of times, but later he would strip her naked and hang her up to beat her. He would also torture and humiliate her in ways that were hard to talk about.
Later, Chen Qiang lost his job and stayed at home. Every day, besides drinking, he would beat her. Every time she tried to escape, he would catch her and bring her back for an even more brutal beating.
Finally, in order to escape this devil, she seduced Chen Qiang's friend and together they sent him to prison on charges of fraud.
But now that he's out, she's finished.
Su Peipei screamed in despair, but soon her mouth was roughly stuffed with a stinky thing, and she couldn't make a sound. She could only look at Chen Qiang pleadingly with tears streaming down her face.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Qiang finally got tired of fighting.
He grabbed her by the hair and forced her between his legs: "Damn it, you filthy bitch, serve me well, or I'll beat you to death."
Su Peipei trembled with fear, but she didn't resent Chen Qiang; instead, she resented Gu Baiwei.
If it weren't for that bitch, she wouldn't have been sent back to this devil's side. If she's not having a good time, she'll definitely make sure that bitch doesn't have a good time either.
Chen Qiang was breathing heavily, pressing down hard on Su Peipei's head. The stench made her want to vomit, and her hatred for Gu Baiwei grew stronger.
Yes, it's all her fault. She finally managed to escape, only to be sent back to hell...
Gu Baiwei sneezed uncontrollably. Who was cursing her?
"Mom, should I apply to Linhai Medical University or Peking University Conservatory of Music?"
Ye Chuyue looked at the application guide with a worried expression.
On the one hand, she wanted to study medicine like Song Anze, so that she could not only stay in the local area to study, but also go directly to work at Song Anze's clinic after graduation, and the two of them could be together every day.
However, she still preferred singing to studying medicine.
But if she studies music, she will have to go to the Peking University School of Music, which would mean a four-year long-distance relationship with Song Anze.
Song Anze is getting older, and his family has been pressuring him to get married for a long time, so their relationship is probably...
"Yueyue, if you give up your dreams for love, won't you really regret it?"
Gu Baiwei reached out and put her arm around her shoulder, asking her softly.
She made the wrong choice once, and she doesn't want her daughter to regret it for the rest of her life like she did.
Before Ye Chuyue could answer, her phone rang.
She answered the call, and Li Nanxing's cheerful voice quickly came through the receiver: "Sister Yue, how's it going? Have you decided where to apply?"
Ye Chuyue said dejectedly, "Not yet, what about you?"
Li Nanxing was silent for a moment, then spoke without hesitation: "Wherever you choose, Sister Yue, I'll choose."
"Are you crazy? You scored more than 90 points higher than me. You could easily go to a better school than me."
Ye Chuyue was disappointed in Li Nanxing, who performed exceptionally well, ranking first in the entire school with a score of over 690, less than ten points lower than the top scorer in the province's college entrance examination.
Li Nanxing said firmly, "Wherever you go, I'll go."
Ye Chuyue wanted to roll her eyes: "Are you stupid?"
"I'm stupid, stupid enough to like someone for so many years, but the other person only sees me as a buddy."
Li Nanxing's voice soon came from the other side, filled with deep disappointment.
Ye Chuyue thought she might be hallucinating; she thought she heard Li Nanxing confessing his feelings, but she wasn't sure.
"What did you say?"
"Ye Chuyue, I said I like you, and I'll go wherever you go."
Li Nanxing finished speaking with a flushed face, and afraid of hearing her rejection, she hung up the phone decisively.
Ye Chuyue was a little confused. Had Li Nanxing gone mad? He actually said he liked her?
She was already annoyed, and now she seems even more annoyed.
Gu Baiwei looked at her face and leaned closer: "Yueyue, what's wrong?"
“That lunatic Li Nanxing just confessed to me and said he’d go wherever I go. Isn’t that crazy? He got so many more points than me, he could have gone to a better school.”
After Ye Chuyue finished speaking angrily, she noticed that Gu Baiwei was watching her with a smile.
She immediately felt a little uncomfortable: "I...I didn't know he liked me, and even if he did, he wouldn't give up a better opportunity for me."
Gu Baiwei reached out and patted her head. This girl was rational and clear-headed about other people's affairs, but confused about her own.
She took Ye Chuyue's hand and said gently, "Yueyue, look, if you think it's wrong for Li Nanxing to apply to a less prestigious university for your sake, are you willing to give up your own dreams for Song Anze? You only have one chance at the college entrance exam. Don't let the rest of your life be filled with regret for this choice."
Ye Chuyue stood there stunned for a long time, then slowly but firmly nodded: "Mom, I understand."
A few days later, Su Peipei returned to the film crew, followed closely by a fierce-looking man with a buzz cut.
She wore a hat and a mask, covering most of her face, and when she looked at people, she was no longer as flamboyant as before, but rather showed some timidity and caution.
As Gu Baiwei brushed past them, she subconsciously frowned and quickened her pace.
Chen Qiang stared intently at her, his gaze seeming to see right through her clothes, making her very uncomfortable.
Su Peipei noticed this scene, her eyes flashing with disgust and an inexplicable schadenfreude.
She knew that with Gu Baiwei's alluring appearance, Chen Qiang would definitely fall in love at first sight.
