"My mother was one of the children adopted by my grandfather." Yin Bai's eyes were beautiful and clear. "My mother was an abandoned baby. Her body was weak from a young age until she was adopted by my grandfather. Her condition improved.
She was raised by my grandfather and stayed by his side until she was twenty, when my mother met my father.
They had a simple wedding, and I was born soon after.
"After my mother gave birth to me, her body became weaker and weaker, and my father's attitude toward her changed.
"Then, my mother's company closed, and she owed a lot of debt. He was chased by people every day, and he often left me and my mother at home, running away from his debt.
"He always said that the debt collectors would not trouble a woman or a newborn, and he only dared to return in the middle of the night every few days.
"This continued for a few months until my father stopped communicating with us and never returned home again.
"She lived in fear with her child, and the debt collectors knocked on her door and splashed her with paint. Finally, one day, my mother fell ill.
"The doctor called my grandfather, and only then did he know that his adopted daughter was living a terrible life.
"A white-haired person taking care of a black-haired person — that was rare at the hospital. My mother's body became weaker and weaker, and she wanted to see my father again. It was not for love but to give him a slap and ask him a question.
"Her wish did not come true until her death. When my grandfather sent her away, he felt like he had aged a lot.
"Then, I lived with my grandfather, studied, and went to school …" Yin Bai lowered her head. "I didn't want to give him trouble, I didn't want to."
In Yin Bai's words, the old headmaster of Mu Yang High School was a very good person. The evil and desire in human nature could not be seen in the old man, and that strengthened Chen Ge's determination to find him.
"Your grandfather is a very good person. Do you know where he is now? I want to see him. " If he knew the way to leave the school, Chen Ge would not have to worry anymore, and he would be invincible.
Yin Bai shook her head. "He lives outside the school, and he always appears when I am at my weakest. Whenever I see him, I feel safe."
"Understood." Chen Ge did not ask anymore. The school would soon be in chaos, and the old headmaster would definitely come to protect his granddaughter. Therefore, he decided to wait. "Have a good rest. I won't disturb you anymore."
Closing the curtain, Chen Ge's mind was filled with the old headmaster. He had avoided him several times, so he would not let him go this time.
After leaving Yin Bai's bed, Chen Ge suddenly realized something. When the girl was reminiscing about the past, she did not mention anything related to Yin Hong. It was as if Yin Hong did not exist in her life.
"Yin Hong is in the family portrait, so why would the child ignore her? What happened between the two sisters? "
Chen Ge had a feeling that Yin Bai's current state had something to do with Yin Hong.
"When we find the old headmaster, everything will be solved. Let's not care about them for now." Remembering Yin Bai's bed, Chen Ge had the thought of keeping Yin Bai by his side to protect her, but considering the difficulty of dealing with the doctor in the inner room, he gave up on that.
Continuing to look around the sickrooms, when Chen Ge passed the last bed, he smelled a pungent smell of medicine.
Pulling back the curtain, Chen Ge looked at the bed, and there was a normal-looking boy lying in it.
His arms and legs were wrapped in bandages, and his eyes were lifeless as he stared at the ceiling. Even when someone pulled back the curtain, he did not react.
The boy did not seem to care about what was happening outside; he was like a zombie.
"Yan Fei?"
Seeing the boy like this, Chen Ge did not feel good. The boy was like any other normal person; he was the epitome of the masses.
"I know you're feeling bad, and I'm not here to comfort you. I just want to tell you that I've helped you take revenge. I've helped you beat up the people who bullied you, and after school, I'll teach them a deeper lesson. "
Saying different things to different people, Chen Ge wanted to get closer to Yan Fei as soon as possible, so he had to do this.
After he said that, Yan Fei still did not react like he was not interested in anything.
Chen Ge tried to say something else, but no matter what he said, Yan Fei did not reply. In fact, his body did not even move.
Unable to communicate, the mission that Chang Wenyu had given Chen Ge was much more difficult than he had expected.
Standing beside the bed, Chen Ge was about to reach his hand into the curtain to check what was wrong with Yan Fei's body when the door not far away suddenly opened. It sounded like the doctor had come out.
Time was limited, so Chen Ge pulled his hand back and looked at Yan Fei with pity.
"The darkness is just there. Even if you ignore it, it will not disappear into thin air. Either you become part of the darkness, or you become the light yourself to light up all the darkness.
"I know you can hear my voice, and I know you've resisted before. Now I'm sitting in your old seat. I'll help you do what you failed to do.
"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. After I've punished those who deserve it, I'll come back to find you."
Yan Fei's condition was more serious than Chen Ge had imagined. He had completely shut himself away. He did not speak, did not communicate. Perhaps only when the knife cut his body, the most primitive pain would remind him that he was still alive.
"You're not wrong, I'll prove it to you."
Chen Ge wanted to change this school, but first, he had to change the mindset of the students.
After encountering or witnessing a student being bullied, silence would not solve anything. Only by standing up bravely could they protect themselves and others.
If all the students could do that, then the bullying would be stopped at the first sign.
Chen Ge did not expect the other students to be like him. He merely wanted to establish himself as a symbol, a man who dared to say no to bullying at the School of the Afterlife.
Walking out from the nurse's office, Chen Ge returned to his class.
The teacher at the podium glanced at him and did not say anything else.
When the school bell rang, the teacher was the first to leave the classroom. He seemed to have something urgent to deal with.
After the teacher left, the few students in the last row rushed out of the classroom. They pointed at Chen Ge like they were planning something.
"Don't go back alone tonight. Get your parents to come and pick you up." Lee Bing took a big risk and slipped a note to Chen Ge out of kindness.
"If my parents really come, they'll probably flip this school upside down. Unfortunately, I haven't seen them for a long time." Chen Ge sat at his seat and slowly tidied up his textbooks.
"I'm not joking with you. There are many of them! You've broken the rules of the game. They'll gang up on you! "Lee Bing was anxious. He could already see Chen Ge's tragic end.
"Don't worry, I've never been afraid of anyone when it comes to numbers." Chen Ge shoved the last book into his bag and strode out of the classroom.
