"Mom, I'm back."
The girl pushed open the door and shouted. The sound of her parents quarreling could be heard from the room.
Whether she came back or whether she had dinner or not was not important in her parents' eyes.
Her father was paralyzed in bed. Although he could move a little, he could not do anything other than go to the toilet on a spittoon.
Her mother had to go out every day to set up a breakfast stall, getting up early and going late.
Logically speaking, the atmosphere of their family should be like many television reports and newspapers,
Poor, tough,
Yet it did not lose the warmth and harmony of a family.
She should also have good grades and work hard for her parents.
However, perhaps it was a fairytale-like story, after all, was in the minority,
Her own home was very different from similar reports that she had seen in the past.
Her father was paralyzed at home, but he could not cultivate his character. He had a very bad temper, especially towards her mother, who worked outside every day. He often scolded her, saying that her mother had a man outside and had a lover.
He said that her mother was shameless and a jerk.
Her mother would often quarrel with her father, and then her father would throw things and roar.
This man's strength for the rest of his life might be spent lying in bed and scolding people.
However, she could not completely sympathize with her mother, because the small jewelry and some clothes that her mother occasionally wore were clearly not the kind that her mother would buy herself
Moreover, once when she and her boyfriend were in a hotel, they bumped into her mother and another man who were supposed to buy ingredients, and they walked into the same hotel as her.
At that time, the two parties almost walked into the same elevator. If she had not reacted quickly and told her boyfriend that she was going to the bathroom first, a terrible awkwardness might have been born.
This was a broken home,
It looked like it was in a precarious situation, but in fact, it was indeed leaking everywhere.
She did not know why her mother did not divorce her father. She also did not know why her father, who had lost the ability to work and earn money, or even the ability to do housework, did not have the slightest self-awareness.
In short,
She habitually opened the door with her key,
Habitually heard her parents quarreling,
Habitually walked into her small room in the attic,
Habitually poured herself a cup of cold water,
Out of habit, he opened his latest Apple laptop.
Habitually took out the gentle makeup remover that she had just bought,
Habitually opened the makeup blogger videos that she often watched,
Habitually logged into Zhihu.
This was her life, and it was also her current rhythm.
For her, the college entrance examination had long been an unreachable dream, because her results were so bad that she had already given up all hope.
She regretted it a little.
She regretted saying that her form teacher had violated her for the sake of a few tens of thousands of yuan back in middle school.
At that time, his mother was very excited, and so was his father. After he told his mother about it, his mother didn't go out to set up her stall for a few days. She called a few relatives to carry his paralyzed father on a stretcher to the school gate.
The couple hugged each other and cried bitterly.
Wretched and miserable.
When the reporters heard the news, they rushed over like sharks that saw blood.
Morality, ethics, lack of humanity.
It was often the hottest topic that the reporters liked the most at the moment, because they wouldn't step on the line and the risk was extremely low. However, the effect of being a hot topic was incomparably huge.
In short..,
She did not expect the direction of that incident.
At first, she just wanted a little more pocket money to buy clothes.
His homeroom teacher, who was also his language teacher, knew about his family's situation and had helped him a little. Usually, he would even help him pay his school fees in advance.
Occasionally, Teacher Ren's mother would invite him to her house for a meal.
Teacher Ren wasn't married yet.
In addition, she often went to his office and home.
It also gave many people a chance to make groundless accusations.
The rumors had already existed before she exposed herself, but at that time, she didn't care.
Although, she had also heard about it.
Once, she secretly went to a bar to play. After she was bumped into by her teacher on the way out, the teacher became cold to her. He seemed to be very disappointed in her.
His mother also stopped asking her to go to dinner.
He even stopped paying her school fees in advance.
He also stopped helping her.
This made her feel very angry.
Then, she used being violated as a threat to ask the teacher for money. She needed money. She needed money to buy the lipstick, the clothes, and the substitutes that she liked.
But the teacher rejected her, even if she threatened to expose the matter.
Even now, she felt that the homeroom teacher in her middle school was indeed a scholar.
At that time, he even knocked on the table and scolded himself, "Justice is in the hearts of the people."
However …
Was that really the case?
After the matter spread,
He was directly suspended by the school.
The huge pressure from public opinion finally caused him to collapse.
He fought back angrily.
He fought back at length on the Internet.
His mouth was full of "Who cares?".
Even if she was only a middle school student at that time, she was only a bad student. At that time, she could tell that the teacher's counterattack was very pale and weak.
Although it seemed powerful and righteous, and he was not afraid of rumors.
But in the eyes of outsiders, this was a dead duck that was stubborn and self-righteous. He wanted to rely on his identity as a teacher to get away with it.
The teacher had taught Chinese for his entire life and taught batch after batch of students how to write a good essay. However, his "Essay" was not well written.
What the outside world and public opinion wanted to see was not his style. Moreover, his powerful and sonorous counterattack and irony in the style of "Lu Xun" stimulated the nerves of the outside world's public opinion.
What …
We're all wrong?
You're the only one who's wise?
Impossible.
Then, there was an even stronger counterattack.
Nowadays, when a celebrity was involved in a scandal, they had to immediately hire a public relations company to calm the situation down.
If it was just to reason and lay out the facts, if things were really that simple …
Then most of the public relations companies would have to starve to death.
At that time, another piece of news was dug out. One of the teacher's uncles was a section chief in the local education bureau.
He was a very small section chief who was over 50 years old. He usually abided by morality and was also an old pedant who liked to study the mind. Because of this, his interpersonal relationships were very poor. At 50 years old, he had no chance to rise further.
However, the outside world only needed a short title for this news: Beast Teacher's Background Revealed!
Everything was completely detonated.
People vented their "Anger" to their heart's content, feeling that they were fighting against the dark forces and the nobles of the human world,
The media fought for traffic and exposure to their hearts' content,
This was a gluttonous feast that she had set off.
In the end, it ended with the teacher leaping from the top of the teaching building.
And the tens of thousands of yuan that the school had paid her family in order to calm things down and restore normal teaching had also made a "Coffin Seal" for this incident.
Not guilty,
How could she lose money?
Right.
After learning that the teacher had died,
She suffered for a night, and then regretted it for a month.
She suffered for a night because she still had a conscience
She regretted it for a month because she realized that if she had waited until she went to university and used this method again, she could have earned more, such as a postgraduate guarantee, or more compensation.
She took out her wallet from her pocket. It belonged to the girl named Lin Yi. She was her classmate.
There was a lot of cash in the wallet, and there were many VIP cards.
A mocking smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Heh, rich people.
Rich bitches.
Then, she took out the 5,000 yuan from her pocket and put it in her locked small drawer. She felt that today's harvest was not bad. In fact, she had received many donations after the incident, and she and her parents had split them in half.
She removed her makeup and washed her hair,
She opened the webpage again,
She logged into Zhihu,
Today, she was going to write about her day's life.
For example, she had a brother-in-law who opened a bookstore, a sister who was a doctor, and a father who opened a pharmaceutical company and was once the director of a hospital.
She wrote that today, there was a classmate who had been violated by a teacher, but was actually a green tea bitch. She lost her wallet, and she despised her in her heart, but she still took 5,000 yuan from her brother-in-law and gave it to her.
Because 5,000 yuan, to her, was just a fraction of her monthly pocket money.
Just treat it as pity for this green tea bitch.
She had a large number of fans who followed her movements. As long as she sent a message, many people would reply and like it. She liked this feeling. Here, she had found her new life.
Sometimes, she even couldn't tell the difference between the virtual world of the Internet and the reality of reality.
She felt that she was Lin Yi.
Of course, there were also people who mocked her for looking down on the poor just because she was rich and had a good family background.
She calmly replied: Who?
care？
She closed the computer and prepared to rest. Staying up late was a woman's natural enemy. She needed to take good care of herself. Her skin seemed to be the real valuable thing that her parents had left for her.
She went to the bathroom and washed up.
Her parents' argument continued. Her father was smashing a cup and scolding her mother. Her mother scolded him back for being a coward. Why didn't he hurry up and die,
He would find a car on the road and lie down under it. Then, he would compensate his family with a sum of money. That would be considered his responsibility as a man.
She smiled when she heard that,
After washing up, she returned to her bedroom.
She opened the door,
Only to find that there was a person sitting on her bed,
A man,
The man was smoking,
The ashes from the cigarette fell into the lid of a skincare product that she had just bought.
For a moment, she had no idea how she should face the man.
The man flipped open the notebook that she had closed.
The man was reading her reply on Zhihu.
Silence.
It lasted for around three minutes.
She finally asked in a trembling voice, "What are you doing here?"
She knew him. She had just met him. He was Lin Yi's brother-in-law who owned a bookstore.
Zhou Ze inserted the cigarette butt into her skincare product.
The corner of her mouth twitched. That model was very expensive. She had only bought it after accompanying an old man once.
Zhou Ze looked at her with a faint smile.
Then, he said in a serious tone,
