An Xiaxia was too young. She was only in the first grade and didn't know anything. She only knew that Zhou Bai was the person who treated her the best.
If she was disobedient, Zhou Bai might send her back to the orphanage …
An Xiaxia shuddered at the thought of the dark orphanage. She nodded without thinking.
Then, the real hell came.
At first, Zhou Bai would feel guilty after beating her up. He would take her to see a doctor after he sobered up. But later, his mental state worsened and he treated An Xiaxia worse and worse …
When the teacher found out about An Xiaxia's injuries, she didn't care. Instead, she scolded her in front of the whole class. "Don't learn from Zhou Yueyue. She was beaten because she was disobedient!"
The teacher with single eyelid and fox-like eyes hated An Xiaxia because her family didn't give her any gifts. Zhou Bai didn't give An Xiaxia money to buy the tutoring materials she recommended.
A poor girl like her didn't have much to gain. What did it matter to her whether An Xiaxia lived or died?
An Xiaxia was tricked by the teacher. She became quieter and quieter. One time, all the boys in the class ganged up and threw stones at her. She never went to school again.
Her way of thinking was simple and extreme.
If the whole world was so cruel, she would rather be beaten by Zhou Bai at home than go to school and be beaten by other kids.
She couldn't remember how many muddle-headed days she had. In a house filled with the smell of alcohol and blood, she was like a weed. She didn't want to live, but she couldn't die either.
Day after day, she passed numbly.
Because there was no hope in her heart, there was no despair.
Because no one helped her, she didn't know she could ask for help.
The closet was her favorite place. Although it was dark and stuffy, Zhou Bai sometimes couldn't find her when he was drunk. She could avoid a beating.
An Xiaxia thought it was great. She was happy. Weren't other kids like that?
She lived like this for two years, deceiving herself.
When the cat abuse scandal was exposed, cat lovers rushed into Zhou Bai's house to discuss how to deal with him. She climbed out of the closet and stood there timidly. She was so skinny that only her bones remained. Only her black eyes were bright and clear.
Everyone was shocked. They watched helplessly as the little girl went to drink water from the tap. She was wearing clothes that clearly did not fit her, and her exposed skin was full of scars …
After drinking the water, she ignored everyone and continued to hide in the closet.
A middle-aged woman couldn't take it anymore. She grabbed her and asked with a trembling voice, "You … What's your name?"
An Xiaxia blinked. "Zhou. Yue. Yue."
She hadn't spoken for a long time, so her voice was extremely dry.
I named her Yue, may she be happy for a lifetime.
But she had never tasted joy, only pain that penetrated deep into her bones.
The woman rolled up her sleeves and saw the wounds on her body. She couldn't help crying. "How did you get hurt like this? Is he your father? Child … Oh my god … "
An Xiaxia reached out to wipe her tears. "Auntie, did Dad beat you up too? Wow, so all dads in the world are like this. "
The adults in the room all had tears in their eyes. The warm-hearted aunty picked her up and cried uncontrollably, "I'll take you away … I'll take you away …"
…
In the ward, An Xiaxia's eyelashes fluttered. She opened her eyes and grabbed Sheng Yize's hand.
"Will you leave me in the future?" She was so serious that she couldn't believe it.
