Chapter 4
Yuan Luoyi, still a lonely little girl at the age of 11.
Her brothers had completed their studies one by one, and started their own careers, so they returned home less frequently.
Occasionally, she would recall the past, those red, rusty, bloody and distorted sounds, as well as the indifference in her brothers' eyes. She already knew what was going on.
They stimulated their younger sister with all kinds of terrible behaviors, wanting to know her reactions. It would not cause harm, but it would leave a shadow.
They were curious and obsessed, again and again.
Just like the ancient nursery rhyme.
A venomous scorpion wanted to cross the river.
It said to the frog: "Kind little frog, I cannot swim, please carry me across the river, only when I get to the other side can I find food."
The frog said: "But you have a bad reputation that you would sting me with your venomous tail."
"I would never sting you. Think about it, if I stung you while crossing the river, we would both die."
"Okay, I’ll carry you across."
When they reached the middle of the river, the scorpion stung the frog, and they sank down together.
The frog asked: "Why?"
The scorpion said: "Sorry, it’s my instinct."
Yes, instinct.
It was the snake's instinct to prey on the mouse, and it was also the mouse's instinct to fear the snake.
So the mental maturity did not bring Yuan Luoyi joy, but only fear.
Her brothers also noticed their younger sister's changes. They were no longer as unscrupulous as before. They hid their fangs and disguised themselves as normal people.
However, this was still unable to prevent the estrangement between the siblings.
After the lonely elementary school life ended, Yuan Luoyi finally ushered in a major turning point in her life.
She was admitted to Star Galaxy Middle School.
Yuan's Mother cheered with joy: "Great! Your five brothers also graduated from this middle school. I'm very familiar with the principal! You will definitely have a happy campus life there."
Yuan Luoyi asked, "Can I make friends there?"
Yuan's Mother said, "Of course you can! There are many children from prestigious families inside. Not everyone would be afraid of the Yuan family. Your elementary school classmate Sen Junxuan also got admitted. You two can take care of each other."
After hearing this, Yuan Luoyi also became happy. She had already started imagining the scene of sharing snacks with her friends.
In the afternoon, the principal of Star Galaxy Middle School came to get to know Yuan Luoyi's situation in advance. He brought a bouquet of flowers.
"Ah, Mrs. Yuan, long time no see, you are as beautiful as ever. Can you tell me the secret to staying young?"
Yuan's Mother smiled and accepted the flowers: "My secret is to keep working. Once people become idle, they will only age faster."
The principal admired: "I really admire you so much. While working, you can also nurture five such outstanding sons. Now there is also a dazzling daughter."
He walked quickly to Yuan Luoyi, pushed up his glasses, and stared at her carefully: "As expected of the Yuan family’s child, each of them is exquisite."
"You can become an ambitious person, or an innovator, or even have ambitions for the world and save lives, leaving your name in history!"
"We have sufficient educational resources to support you."
"So what is your dream?"
Yuan Luoyi had never thought about this. She just went to school naturally and came to this juncture in life naturally.
Seeing Yuan Luoyi's confusion, the principal laughed heartily: "It's okay. You have enough time to think about what exactly you want. But..."
"We have a special system. In addition to classes A, B and C, there is also class D. Students with poor performance will be sent to class D."
"The homeroom teacher of class D looks handsome but is useless. He is passive and never disciplines students."
Yuan Luoyi suddenly looked up, extremely interested in this class D.
The principal continued: "Class D has no morning self-study sessions. Students can come whenever they want, very casual, which breeds laziness. It’s only 30 meters away from the cafeteria. Usually crowded and noisy, which seriously affects students' ability to concentrate in class."
He held up a finger and said solemnly to Yuan Luoyi: "Now you have been admitted to the best Class A, but if you don't study hard, you may be assigned to Class D."
Yuan Luoyi thought regretfully.
But the conditions of Class D sounded so appealing, so tempting.
She secretly glanced at her eldest brother Yuan Ao. He was sitting lazily on the sofa, his handsome face cold and mysterious. His white shirt was neatly ironed, meticulous and inscrutable.
"Principal, what were my brothers like at school back then?"
The principal said, "They were exceptionally outstanding, like brilliant stars falling to earth, talented, charming and charismatic. No one could refuse them, but when they started to make troubles, it was truly agonizing!"
"Are they all in Class A?"
"Yes."
Yuan Luoyi was very disappointed. If her whole family except her went to Class D, it would damage the Yuan family's glory. She had to give up the idea of going to Class D.
Her five brilliant brothers put quite some pressure on her.
However, Yuan Luoyi was still looking forward to the new campus life. She hoped that she could make many friends.
But after spending a month in Star Galaxy Middle School, Yuan Luoyi's hopes were dashed.
The prestige of the five Yuan brothers still remained. They were nightmares to countless teachers and students. After Yuan Luoyi enrolled, everyone felt that she was also strong, aloof, and extremely evil at the same time.
She didn't do anything, yet the students started trembling in fear.
Sen Junxuan, the only one who understood her personality, also did not want to play with her.
In PE class, he pushed her away.
When she fell to the ground, Yuan Luoyi suddenly saw a long memory, just like those strange dreams she had as a child.
Ah, she realized that this was her second time becoming Yuan Luoyi.
The first time, when Yuan's Father discovered that she was a fake heiress, his eyes turned cold instantly. He mercilessly kicked her out to search the whole world for his biological daughter.
She was also framed. Her indictment was in the morning, execution grounds visit in the afternoon, ashes scattered at night.
Within a day, she lost her life at the age of eighteen.
