In the almost pure white silence, Zheng Xichen's consciousness slowly floated up, getting lighter and lighter, so light that it could almost fly into the sky.

The rich camellia fragrance floated around Zheng Xichen, making her feel as if she was in a fairyland.

It seems that you can hear the cheers of the angels and the playfulness with the children.

She could see unknown birds and flowers growing on the lush green land, a fountain standing in the center, a beautiful and pure Greek goddess playing and singing a gorgeous harp, the music was flowing, and the angels sang along with the music Wake up, the voice is like the most mellow rain in the world.

Suddenly, the scenery changed drastically.

The vibrant green meadow has turned into a dark alley, and the water on the ground has grown moss because it has not seen the sun all year round; It turned into a piercing scream.

Pleasure becomes fear, peace of mind becomes apprehension, dependence becomes escape.

The little Zheng Xichen folded her arms and leaned against the mottled and damp wall tremblingly, with some daily clutter piled up beside her.

Her small and immature face has not yet fully developed, but the fear has left traces on her face accumulated over the years.

Years of fear and insomnia caused her eye circles to remain black and black, and the pain that could not be healed tormented her, making her look very haggard, sallow and emaciated, with almost no chance of health.

But only those eyes, wide open and round, like a precious gemstone, soaked in water, shining brightly, these are a pair of beautiful and clear eyes.

Zheng Xichen hugged herself tightly, tears slowly slid down her cheeks, slid over her chapped lips, and fell on the ground, making a small crackling sound.

Suddenly, as if she had heard a terrifying sound, she hugged herself even tighter, with her little head buried in her lap, trembling like a little rabbit being chased by wolves, which was pitiful and lovable.

With a "bang", the door was shaken and Li Qiang walked in waddlingly. He entered the room, threw his shoes casually, and then entered the living room.

Li Li followed behind him, wearing a cheap red dress, with unnatural makeup on her face made from cosmetics bought from small shops on the street, making her look very much like the lower class she usually despises people.

But she didn't realize it at all. Instead, she held up the mirror coquettishly, parted her hair, and squeezed the pimples on her face vigorously. The oily face was in stark contrast to Zheng Xichen's thin and thin face.

Zheng Xichen shrunk into a small ball, trying to hide herself as much as possible, not daring to make a sound.

Li Li slammed the mirror on the table viciously. There were some leftovers on the oily table, which was so shaken by her slap.

"Unlucky, I blame you these few days, you little bastard, did you go to fight again?" Li Li complained and grabbed Li Qiang's ear.

Li Qiang's whole body in pain followed him up on tiptoe. He was angry from the heart, and he opened Li Li's hand with a "snap", and pushed Li Li hard, pushing Li Li to the ground. Sitting down on the chair, he screamed.

"You little bastard has turned upside down, I don't think your dad will clean you up when he comes back!"

Li Qiang said mockingly, "It's just that old bastard, it's not bad for me to take care of him, look at how useless he is all day long, he's not as good as my brother Wang!"

When he was more than ten years old, he hung out with people on the "road", collected protection fees together, gambled together, and took care of those who didn't have long eyes together. How could he be the son of a trash like Zheng Guoqiang?
"You, keep your voice down, don't let your father hear you later." Li Li loves and hates this son at the same time. Half of the reason why Li Qiang is so rampant today is because of her connivance.

She was reluctant to beat him, but also couldn't control him. As time passed, Li Qiang stopped listening to her.

"Father? Is he worthy, the old thief."

"Li Qiang, are you not listening to me?" Li Li said angrily, trying to regain some dignity as a mother.

However, Li Qiang didn't give her face at all: "Oh, Mom, in my opinion, you'd better go to bed and lie down. After that old man dies, I'll sell this crappy house and take you to live in it." That kind of luxurious big house!"

Li Li taunted suspiciously, "It's just you, you still have a big house, don't think about all these things all day long."

Doesn't she know her son herself, what can she do?

"You woman, what do you know? If you don't understand, don't point fingers here. Brother Wang said, as long as I hang out with him well and become famous in the future, let me be the second in command in the gang. In the future, I will be the second in command. If you want to be a rich man, is it your turn to teach me a lesson here?"

Li Qiang trusts his brother Wang so much, he can't wait to shed his blood for him, so that he can be the founding father of their "gang".

But Li Li is a person who knows what she knows. Although she usually likes to fantasize, this kind of thing is not very reliable.

When she heard about Brother Wang, Li Li couldn't help but worry: "You son of a bitch, don't spend all day studying with those bastards, it's true to go to school well, by the way, how many days have you been away from school?"

"Tch, what's the use of going to school? Brother Wang said that those who go to school will only be able to work for us in the future, and don't need to go to school." Li Qiang didn't care at all.

"You, you really don't listen!" Li Li grinned bitterly, angry, and couldn't bear to beat him, of course, she couldn't beat him.

Li Li's eyes fluttered wildly, and suddenly, she saw Zheng Xichen who was squatting by the wall, and she raised her eyebrows all of a sudden.

"I'll kill you little bastard!"

Li Li rushed over aggressively, lifted Zheng Xichen up, and threw her hard into the middle of the living room.

Zheng Xichen seemed to have foreseen this scene, resigned to her fate and hugged her head, resisting the pain in her body.

"Hmph, this daughter is just as useless as that old one, so boring!" Li Qiang kicked Zheng Xichen's small body violently as if playing around, then curled his lips and went into his room.

Li Li also slapped Zheng Xichen hard, and then punched and kicked Zheng Xichen to the floor.

Zheng Xichen gritted her teeth, the blood on her lips slid down like beads, the pain was like a needle, eroding her bone marrow all the time, making her suffer a lot.

Feeling the rain of fists and slaps on her body, Zheng Xichen silently shed tears and felt a burst of sadness.

She can only comfort herself, it will pass, and it will be fine. The teacher said that if the heavens will be responsible for everyone, they must first work their muscles and bones and starve their bodies, so she is only going through the hardships that she should have.

But the consolation was just consolation, it was of no use except to let her die in the illusory warmth like a little match girl.

She doesn't believe in religion, but God said he is merciful, why didn't he come to save her?
Zheng Xichen actually knows that the world is full of dangers and thorns along the way.

She must firmly remember what kind of darkness she once lived in.

Only by knowing the coldness and terror of darkness can one feel the warmth of light and cherish the happiness that is not easy to come by.

As for Li Li and Li Qiang, their mother and son did not regard Zheng Xichen as a real person at all, but only as a tool to vent their anger, a sandbag, and a little bastard who distracted Zheng Guoqiang's attention.

Therefore, every time the two felt dissatisfied, they would beat Zheng Xichen severely in private. Zheng Xichen had also been unconvinced and resisted, but how could a half-grown child beat an adult or a teenager?

It's just that he was beaten worse.

Zheng Xichen's resistance was useless, so she wanted to tell her father, Zheng Guoqiang.

The little child almost looked forward to his father as a hero, looking forward to his father caring about her, looking forward to his father being able to stand up for her and drive away those bad guys.

However, the fact is that her father was not only unable to beat those bad guys, but even turned a blind eye to their evil deeds and did not hear them.

After simply getting angry a few times, Zheng Guoqiang didn't dare to make mistakes. Whenever he questioned their mother and son, Li Li would cry, saying that Zheng Guoqiang didn't take their mother and son seriously at all, and Li Qiang would threaten to beat them up. he.

So with the courage of this cowardly man, he only dared to cover Zheng Xichen with a quilt quietly at night when he saw Zheng Xichen huddled in the cold, or comforted Zheng Xichen without confidence, telling her that everything would be fine. OK

In Zheng Xichen's heart, the original father was not like this.

Her father would take her to the amusement park to ride the merry-go-round, told fairy tales to lull her to sleep, and was a good father who would romantically cook candlelight dinners for her mother.

Instead of this obedient, cowardly looking coward who doesn't even dare to speak loudly.

Li Li and Li Qiang were right, he was just a wimp, a coward who couldn't protect his daughter.

Zheng Xichen will never expect anyone to save her, she knows, she is very clear that she will always live in such dark days until she grows up.

"Little bastard, bah, I can only beat you to relieve my hatred, I really don't know if your mother is as useless as you!" Li Li shook her hands, as if there was something dirty on Zheng Xichen's body.

Zheng Xichen's originally indifferent eyes gradually became turbulent, and a high level of anger arose. She took advantage of the situation and bit Li Li's hand, with all her strength, as if she wanted to bite off a piece of her flesh.

"I don't allow you to call my mother!" Zheng Xichen shouted hoarsely with tears streaming down her face, "I don't allow it, I don't allow it!"

Isn't it enough to beat her, why do you still talk about her mother?
That was her only, the only good memory left, no one can break this memory!

She looked like a crazy little lion, biting the neck of her prey tightly and not letting go.

Li Li screamed and cursed sharply: "You desperate little bastard! I'll kill you!"
