Yan Xiyue: From a young age, my parents taught me to be a good child, so I would obediently sit in my room to study and learn, and then I would receive their praise. Occasionally, I would look out the window with envy at my peers playing freely, but I knew these things did not belong to me.
As I grew up, my parents began to relax their control over me, but I still preferred to sit quietly in my room to study; the outside world felt alien to me.
One day, I saw a girl who was completely different from me. Her hair was very short, and she fiercely fought with the person in front of her. Her fingers were bleeding, and the blood dripped onto the ground, yet she seemed unfazed.
That was the first time I saw her. I secretly called the police, wanting to tell her that fighting was wrong, but I couldn't find a good reason. I hesitated.
The second time I saw her, she was leaning against a wall, smoking. The smoke swirled, blurring her face. My classmates pulled me away.
The third time I saw her was in the classroom. It was the first time I mustered the courage to speak to a girl so different from myself.
I felt she wasn't as fierce as she appeared. The truth proved me right; though she seemed cold on the outside, she had a kind heart.
She secretly followed me, and when I discovered her, she pretended she wanted me to tutor her. Knowing she was lying, I didn't expose her.
As a model student in the eyes of my teachers, I often went to the office. Once, by chance, I saw her entrance exam scores. Honestly, they were only slightly lower than mine.
I thought she was worried about me traveling to and from school alone, so I accepted her kindness.
She's really so cute! She even feels embarrassed when she lies. Those strange rumors outside must be deliberate smear campaigns. She must have offended someone by accident.
I went to her house. Her house was large but felt empty. She seemed so lonely. So, was she pretending to be tough because she was afraid of being bullied? It's okay, I'll protect her from now on.
Strange rumors suddenly started circulating at school. Although they were inexplicable, I didn't dislike them. I secretly watched her sitting beside me. She seemed unaware. Should I tell her?
After much deliberation, I chose to clarify. Her reputation at school was already poor; I couldn't let these things affect her further.
Today is Wednesday. She didn't come to school for the first time. I'm very worried. But then I remembered seeing her talking to some delinquents before, and I got a little angry. Could she have gone to hang out with them again?
No, I have to help her!
She was drunk, her house was a mess, and she… kissed me. Really, I'm ignoring her. But it's so strange! Why do I see her face every time I close my eyes?
I searched online. It said I had fallen in love with her. But how is that possible? She's a girl.
Okay! I admit I might really like her a little. I don't want to see others talking to her, but I promised my parents not to date early. It's okay, only one more year. Just hold on for one year.
I graduated and went to confess to her. She seemed very happy. She kissed me, but kissing felt a little uncomfortable, my lips hurt a bit.
We went on a date and had a lot of fun.
It's great that we're going to the same school. We can be together again.
She proposed to me on the most important occasion of her life. I was very happy, but then I became a little scared. I remembered things from my childhood. What if they didn't agree?
Fortunately, she was very clever. I liked her even more.
We got our certificate! It's legal. She's just a bit rough, really not like a girl at all. Can't she be a little gentler? (งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃
Okay! After she coaxed me, I forgave her.
Time seems to pass so quickly! I suddenly want to adopt a child.
She said she wanted the child to take her surname, so she could hand over the company to him later and travel with me.
That's a great idea!!!
The child's name was her idea. Although it wasn't very pleasant, I still praised her. Her personality is still the same as before, a bit childish and jealous. Every time I softened when Xing Yue Lin worked hard to study, she would take me to another room.
After coming out, I understood and stopped caring how she taught the child.
Later, the child grew up. As promised, she took me everywhere. Leaving the child alone to face the vast family business, I felt a little soft-hearted, but not much.
Let me tell you quietly: I'm afraid she'll use this as an excuse to bully me again.
Later, when we got older and our legs and feet became inconvenient, we moved to a nursing home. Honestly, her card playing is really bad. When she's about to lose, she cheats.
She was good-looking, and I impulsively agreed. Afterwards, I regretted it, but there was no chance.
Triumphantly: She still thinks she's so capable! This is a little secret, please keep it for me. Don't let her see this notebook of my girlish thoughts!
Xing Yue Lin: From a young age, I knew I was adopted, but they treated me very well, yet also very strictly. I never understood why before, but later I realized they wanted to train me quickly and then slip away.
But I understood too late. They were gone before I could react.
I worked diligently. Later, by chance, I met a girl who was also adopted like me. We were very close when we were young. Although there are differences now, we still have a lot of chemistry.
We fell in love. On our wedding day, those two finally returned. They sat in a corner. If I hadn't looked closely, I wouldn't have noticed them.
I immediately decided to drag them back to the company. I wanted to go on my honeymoon with the person I love. But those two, although older, were still as agile as ever. I didn't succeed, so I had to take leave and work while honeymooning.
Later, when those two could no longer run, they finally returned. But by then, I couldn't bully the elderly anymore. This is my miserable, busy, and enslaved life.
However, what is fortunate is: I am not alone.
