Director Diao had a daughter named Lingli, who was a very beautiful middle school girl. She was as kind as her mother.
The moment Qiu Shi escaped from Director Diao's house, the girl followed behind her. Her height advantage allowed her to catch up to Qiu Shi without much effort.
Not only did Ling Li not question Qiu Shi, she even hid her in a big tree on the mountain opposite their house.
After Qiu Shi calmed down a little, she asked softly,""Are you really afraid of going home?”
Perhaps what Qiu Shi had experienced was beyond Ling Li's imagination and understanding as a child who lived in the city and the streets. She did not have the strength to repeat her terrifying experience to Ling Li."Sister, no matter what, I will never return to that home.”
A pair of sparkling eyes were embedded on her fair and intelligent face. There was a hint of doubt, curiosity, and sympathy in her eyes.
She had learned about Qiu Shi's rough experience from her mother, who was the head of the women's department. Her parents wanted to take this opportunity to educate her!
Qiu Shi was also in a panic. She could not imagine how Lingli felt when she saw her strange expression and actions. She didn't have the time to care about such things anymore.
The sky darkened.
" It's getting dark. Why don't I go home and check out the situation first?" The fluorescent lights in the houses were already lit up. Lingli couldn't help but want to go home and check it out.
Qiu Shi looked at her with a face full of distrust. She didn't agree, nor did she express her approval.
"I can promise you that I will never betray you! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone where you are hiding. You have to promise me not to run around. I'll come back for you later."
Seeing Lingli's sincere expression and repeated promises, Qiu Shi finally agreed. She obediently squatted on the tree trunk and waited for Lingli to bring her news.
There were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets, and more and more people were waiting around. From time to time, she heard a few dog barks. Qiu Shi tugged at the corner of her clothes and bit it in her mouth, looking anxious and uneasy.
A long time passed.
"Why hasn't Sister Lingli come back to find me yet?”
Qiu Shi was shivering in the cold night wind, and her fear made her even more vigilant of her surroundings. Every time a gust of cold wind blew up the grass and leaves, Qiu Shi felt as if that person was chasing after her with a club in his hand. She reached out and grabbed the branch tightly, her eyes staring at the swaying vegetation around her.
At this moment, the announcement came again."Zeng Hongtong, please hurry back to Director Diao's house. They won't send you back. Don't worry and come back!”
He repeated it over and over again.
Qiu Shi finally slid down from the tall tree trunk and walked toward Chief Physician Diao.
She carefully walked into the corridor and pricked up her ears to listen for any movements upstairs.
Director Diao's house was in the second room on the fourth floor. Qiu Shi had been sneaking around since the first floor. When she reached the stairs on the second floor, she heard a familiar voice that made her feel disgusted, afraid, and nauseous."She didn't listen to me and ran around. She fed the pigs at home and only gained 100 pounds in a year. She dragged things out and acted like she was the one who was worse than her all day long. If it wasn't this little bit of pain, it was that little bit that she couldn't bear. Lazy and delicious…"
"As an adult, how can you let a child take on so much housework every day? I also heard that she started to carry water and dung when she was 6 years old, and even started cooking and feeding pigs when she was younger! She had never worn a pair of shoes all year round. All the sweet potatoes on the slope were moved home by her and her grandfather. Which family's children still lived like this now? As an adult, don't you have any responsibility?”Department Director Diao asked angrily.
Qiu Shi heard Director Diao's words clearly, and her tears could not help but fall from her eyes. At the same time, she stopped moving forward." So this person is not dead. What red crane's head, what poison! So it was all a lie-"
"Chief Physician Diao, you don't know, but she's really good at acting! Her grandmother had passed away, and she had been asked to attend the funeral, but she had jumped into the pond halfway. When there was no one nearby, she would not jump. She would stand by the pond and only pretend to fall when someone was about to walk to the pond! Did he really want to die and jump into the Yangtze River? Why did he want to jump into a pond? Pretending to be lazy and not wanting to do anything! He was deliberately acting for others to see! I have enough talking about her. This kind of person shouldn't exist in this world at all. She'll harm everyone if she goes one way or the other."
"Enough! "What are you talking about?" Chief Physician Diao could not stand it anymore. Talking to this kind of person about manners was like playing the lute to a cow. "Don't use your guesses and thoughts to destroy a person's original intention. You're already dozens of years old, so why are you still so insensible? ----”
Qiu Shi did not want to continue listening to that person slander her. She turned around and was about to leave when Ling Li appeared behind her.
She held Qiu Shi's hand and said," My mother asked me where you were several times, but I didn't tell her. That's why she asked the announcer to call you back."”
She gently held Qiu Shi's hand and walked down the stairs."Shh-don't make a sound. When I first saw your father, he was injured and was holding a rope and a knife. He said that he wanted to break your hamstring. Looking at the situation, I was so scared that I cried. My mom and dad couldn't snatch the knife. In the end, they scared him and said that if he didn't give it to me, they would call the joint defense team to solve it. Only then did he let go. In this situation, how could I tell anyone about your hiding spot?”
Lingli dragged Qiu Shi to her school.
"Our school often talks about you. You're really an outstanding child! Why did he treat you like that?" Lingli's heart ached for the child when she saw him. Her heart ached when she thought about it, and her heart ached even more when she saw him.
Qiu Shi's words were filled with hatred, so she chose not to answer. However, Ling Li did not ignore her sorrowful gaze. Her eyes were red as she grabbed Qiu Shi's rough hands."Now I know why my mom and dad insisted on letting me see you. It turns out that compared to you, I'm so much happier.”
No matter how many tears she shed, it would not be enough to describe the pain Qiu Shi had suffered. How was she going to return to such a home? Why did she have to go back?
The two sisters stood in silence on the school field, trying to open Qiu Shi's mouth again."The setting sun and swallows returning to their nests that you wrote was very good! Our teacher said that many high school students and even college students can't write an article of that level. How did a primary school student like you come up with it?”
"If I could, I would rather never think about such a problem.”Qiu Shi's ambiguous answer piqued Lingli's curiosity.
I don't believe that you have nothing to say to me!
She rolled her eyes. "Do you have a brother called Wenjie?”
"Eh? You know him?" Qiu Shi asked anxiously.
"Yeah, he's in my class. There were a few times when your essay was brought to the school to be used as a poster, and I was the one who did it with him! He's so bad. He always says that he has such an amazing sister. I'm so jealous!”
As Lingli said this, a sudden desire rose in her heart. She grabbed Qiu Shi's hand, her eyes glowing with lust."Why don't you be my sister? Anyway, I'm the only child of my parents. Since your family treats you like that, don't go back. Come with our family. In the future, we'll go to school together and get out of school together!”
This sister was not only beautiful, but also a kind person. However, she was just doing it on a whim.
Moreover, such a thing was simply impossible.
Qiu Shi thought to herself.
That person said that even if I die, I have to be the fertilizer for their land.
A wave of excitement surged in her heart, and Ling Li's words kept replaying in her ears.
He kept telling himself in his heart that it was just a fantasy.
