Five years ago.
Xu Xingli has just turned 18.
The rain outside is pattering, as if it doesn't stop.
She sat at her desk and turned the small mirror in front of her. The mirror reflected her thick glasses and a thoughtful face. The corners of her mouth were swollen and there was a band aid on her forehead.
"I know, I know, really, don't worry, I'll talk to her."
Mother's voice came from outside.
Xu Xingli's sarcastic smile appeared in the mirror.
After a while, the phone hung up, and the gorgeous lady in fur shawl came in from outside, full of embarrassment.
Xu Xingli sat there and looked at her in the mirror. Without waiting for her to speak, she said coldly, "I'm not a baizhenzhen dog. I don't want to listen to her."
The lady came up behind her and put her hand on her shoulder. Her voice was low and almost begged, "Xingli, I know you're suffering. Will you help my mother?"
Compared with the gorgeous clothes of the lady, Xu Xingli's cotton padded clothes are white, which can be called desperation.
The lady is Cui Mameng, Xu Xingli's mother.
At the age of seven, Xu Xingli's father died in a car accident. Cui Mameng had been a housewife for many years. She was beautiful and unskilled. When the mother and daughter were about to drink, there was a divorced rich man chasing her. Cui Mameng married into a rich family.
She looks down on Xu Xingli, a famous family, especially her stepsister Bai Zhenzhen, who is similar to her age.
Over the years, Xu Xingli hasn't even stepped into her mother's new home.
She has lived alone in the suburbs of imperial city since she was seven years old. Although she is lonely these years, she has survived.
But when she was admitted to the first-class Imperial City University and found that she was in the same school with Bai Zhenzhen, her nightmare began.
She doesn't dream of a wealthy family, but they don't intend to let her go.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Cui man Meng squeezed her shoulder. "Xingli, I married my real father. You and she are sisters. You always have self-discipline in your study. You can always study ahead of time. It's nothing to help write a thesis."
"Sister? I'm afraid to climb the Bai family because it's so high. "
Xu Xingli sneers, his eyes are cold. Seeing her like this, Cui man Meng said, "don't be so stubborn. Over the years, the Bai family has treated us well. If it's not my real father, how can I afford to live for you? How can you live in such a house? How can the price of imperial city be out of line
I don't know... "
“……”
Here we go again.
Xu Xingli's ears are calloused when she hears these words from Cui Manmeng. Cui Manmeng always spare no effort to make her appreciate the Bai family and ask her to be grateful. No matter what trouble Bai Zhenzhen brings her, she has to bear it.
In fact, she has endured enough. Bai Zhenzhen is a psychopath. Although she doesn't live in Bai's family these years, Bai Zhenzhen takes a group of little friends to beat her up whenever something goes against her will. She and her mother deserve to destroy other people's families
She was punished.
She understood that her mother, an ordinary woman, had a hard time in a rich family, so she had to endure it all the time, but she was a person and could not endure it sometimes.
"Xingli, it's true that you don't know her temper. If you don't help her, she will always pester you and me. It's better to do it for her than to do it like this." Cui man dream constantly advised her, "just write a paper."
"I have my own thesis to write, and I have my own class to attend. I won't do anything for her any more!"
Xu Xingli stood up from her desk, pointed to the wound on her face, and said firmly, "she likes to find someone to beat me, so continue to beat me. If she has the ability, she will kill me!"
She didn't want to put up with it any more.
Smell speech, Cui man dream know that she is really want to completely resist Bai Zhen Zhen, immediately urgent, "you and really really really make stiff what good?"
"At least I can live with dignity. I've had enough."
"What do you want dignity for? You're not the real miss of the Bai family. You're just half an orphan without your father! " Cui said excitedly, "if you don't help her, she will go to her father and make trouble in front of the Bai family. Then I can't live in the Bai family. Do you want your mother to be swept out of the house? Why are you so heartless? How can I have a baby
I've given you such a daughter! I've raised you for so many years. Don't you know how to repay me? "
“……”
Xu Xingli stood there, staring at the woman in front of her. Even if she was more graceful, her face would still shake when she got hysterical.Cui Mameng looked at Xu Xingli's face, and her surprise gradually turned into indifference. Suddenly she began to panic. "Xingli, I..." in fact, Xu Xingli didn't want to stay here for a long time, and she didn't want to accept the living expenses of the Bai family. It was because she refused to let go. She lived in the Bai family tremblingly and had no family relationship. Only when she came to her daughter occasionally, could she talk about it, Will all
Let the negative energy out.
“……”
Xu Xingli silently broke away her hand and turned to leave.
Cui man Meng "bang" knelt down on the ground and hugged her, "star pear, you don't go, it's mom who said the wrong thing, mom apologizes to you, mom sorry you..."
Xu Xingli looked at her in shock and heartache, "what are you doing? Mom, get up
The hard life of a rich family has already softened the bones of Cui man Meng.
"Xingli, do you love your mother? Can you help Zhenzhen?" Cui Manmeng held on to her clothes.
"Ma!" Xu Xingli frowned and looked at her, "you have a bad life in the Bai family. Why don't you leave? I'm 18 years old. I can earn money to support you."
"Are you crazy?" Cui man Meng knelt on the ground and asked, "how can you give me the life of Bai family? Do you know who the Bai family depends on? It depends on the Ying family, who is related by marriage to the Ying family. The former was the Mu family, the head of the four families. "
"Are you so reluctant to give up your rich life?"
Xu Xingli asked weakly.
"Mom is already this age, you let me leave now, how can I live?"
Cui Manmeng knelt down and said, her mobile phone was shaking all the time. Obviously Bai Zhenzhen was still urging her. She listened to the shaking sound and was more and more eager. She grabbed Xu Xingli's clothes and said, "please be my mother, or else my mother will kowtow to you? How about that? "
With that, Cui really kowtowed to her.
Again and again.
The head hit the floor hard.
Looking at such humble Cui Mameng, Xu Xingli knows that her determination made for the nth time has been scrapped again. In fact, Xu Xingli sometimes feels that her life can't be changed because she and Cui Mameng are actually the same people. Cui Mameng can't bear to live a rich life, so she can give up any dignity and personality, and she thinks she is proud
Yes, but it will be defeated in the end. Because... She was greedy for the little bit of family love she got from Cui man Meng.
