Chapter 245 Sad Past

Zheng Duoduo smiled bitterly, "Why bother? I was originally returning it to you."

"It has nothing to do with you. It's just that the bad guys are too bad. Don't take all the blame on yourself. You are carrying too much."

Zheng Duoduo sighed deeply, turned his head, looked out the window, and his thoughts drifted far away;

"Let me tell you my story—"

"When I was nine years old, my parents divorced. The reason for the divorce was that my mother fell and had a miscarriage. At that time, the baby was already formed, and it was a boy;"

"My father had been waiting for a son for a long time, and my mother finally got pregnant. But because of the fall, she was seriously injured and could never get pregnant again. Then my father asked my mother to leave the house with me..."

Zheng Duoduo withdrew her gaze and looked at Bai Youyou tenderly, frowning. She wanted to reach out her hand to smooth her brows, but she reached out halfway, seemed to think of something, and withdrew her hand as if nothing had happened.

"Isn't it ridiculous? My dad was in business, and when they divorced, my mom didn't get a penny except for the debts. It's a bit more polite to say that she left with nothing."

"From that day on, I never saw a smile on my mother's face. She blamed the failure of her marriage on the fact that I was not a boy. If I were a boy, the family would not have fallen apart. At that time, I didn't know what I was thinking. Less than half a year after their divorce, my father's son was born..."

She smiled to herself, fiddling with her hands to hide her sad mood;

Since then, Zheng's mother became almost silent, but she was always particularly strict with Zheng Duoduo and never had a kind face or gentle tone towards her.

During her school years, Zheng Duoduo never saw her mother smile at her. Little Zheng Duoduo knew that she was a child not loved by her parents, so she had no choice but to study hard.

Because only when she showed her award certificates would her mother's face look a little better. In order to make her mother happy, she would strive to win awards in every exam and selection. She vowed to cover the walls of her bare house with her award certificates.

Her goal is to go to the best university in the country in the north, and she works very hard.

After the divorce, in order to pay off debts and support Zheng Duoduo, Zheng's mother opened a steamed buns shop with her good cooking skills. During this period, she accumulated a lot of customers by getting up early and eating late and her delicious food, and her daily income was guaranteed.

Although she was serious with Zheng Duoduo, even when she happily shared her award, her mother would pour cold water on her;

"What's there to be proud of? You're just lucky to have met such an outstanding student. Do you think your grades are good enough?"

Time and again, Zheng Duoduo was not discouraged, but became more and more courageous. The more her mother was pessimistic about her, the more she wanted to prove herself to her mother.

In fact, she is very similar to her mother at heart. Both of them don't give up easily.

His mother's steamed buns shop business became more and more prosperous, and the family began to save money. Zheng Duoduo's stationery and schoolbag were no longer the shabby ones that would be laughed at by his classmates.

Although her mother still didn't smile much and still liked to pour cold water on her, she found that she began to like sharing her thoughts with her mother. During meals, she would talk to herself about her dreams.

Mom would sometimes tease her, but her response made Zheng Duoduo very happy. Mom worked so hard for so many years, but she never wanted to buy new clothes. She had her arms and fronts patched several times, but she just refused to buy new clothes.

But every time Zheng Duoduo needed some information, or there was an activity at school, although she kept muttering, she still prepared everything that needed to be prepared.

On the eve of the exam, Zheng Duoduo looked at the rich meal and his mother's usual cold face, biting his chopsticks and said happily;

"Mom, if I get into the best school in the country, you can move to the north city with me. I will study hard and find a good job. I will support you in the future."

Mother Zheng was chewing her food. Her hand paused for a moment, then continued. She glanced at her daughter who was looking very happy.

For the first time, he didn't say anything to spoil her mood, but instead curled the corners of his mouth silently.

"Focus on the exam tomorrow, don't bring your phone or watch."

"Hehe, originally you weren't allowed to bring it tomorrow."

After saying this, he happily ate his meal.

After the test that day, she felt that she had performed perfectly and thought that she would give her mother a big surprise when the results came out;

On her way home, she would pass through a fenced alley. On the other side of the fence was a construction site of an unfinished building. She never imagined that it would become the starting point of her lifelong nightmare.

"Someone covered my mouth and nose from behind. Not long after, I lost consciousness. When I woke up, there was a group of people standing in front of me..."

Zheng Duoduo tried hard to open her wounds. Her voice was trembling. She couldn't imagine how desperate she was that day. She clenched her fists tightly and kept giving herself courage.

She continued in a trembling voice;

"A group of men with obscene smiles, I don't remember how many there were, they surrounded me, my clothes were scattered around like pieces, they were taking pictures of me with their cell phones -"

"I tried my best to protect my body. I was in so much pain that I lost consciousness. I was covered in blood. I was so scared that I couldn't even cry."

Bai Youyou's hands were holding up the quilt, and the blue veins were clearly visible. She used all her control to convince herself to stay calm.

"I asked them who they were and why they treated me like this, but they beat and tortured me endlessly until I was like a dead person. Then they stopped. From their excited conversation when they left, I heard an important piece of information. It turned out that the person behind the scenes was my father's wife."

"Yoyo, you know, I once had an out-of-body experience. I really wanted to die that time. What's the point of living for a person like me? But when my soul was floating, I saw my mother..."

"My mother was talking about me with the customers in her shop. You know, she was so proud when she talked about me. I had never seen her so radiant before. I thought I was seeing things. I stopped beside her. She was kneading dough and kept saying, 'I have a lot of kids. I never have to worry about my studies.'"

"My daughter Duoduo is so pretty and sensible. Tell me, what good fortune did I have in my previous life to have such an excellent daughter in this life? When the diners around praised my mother for being blessed, she looked so beautiful when she smiled..."
