Sister Anna looked at the puzzled me and said helplessly, “Actually, people like us were all cheated into this line of work. In the beginning, we were all unwilling. However, after a long time, we’ve gotten used to earning money without working. How can we go back to working normally like others? In the
end, we will all come back to this line of business.”
Hearing this, I had nothing to say. I did not understand this, but I still knew very well about the laziness of humans. These were all written in the books.
I couldn’t help but worry about what to do with Liu Jia in the future. I wondered if my advice had harmed her. I couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
‘As expected of an old fox in the social world, Sister Anna immediately saw through my thoughts. She told me that Liu Jia would definitely come here to find my mother when she couldn’t make ends meet anymore.
Hearing this, I felt a little better. At the very least, didn’t this mean that Liu Jia still had a way out? If she really died of hunger on the streets because of me, I would probably regret it for the rest of my life.
Later on, Sister Anna’s words came true. Liu Jia really came back to find my mother. However, at that time, things had already changed.
As I waited, school finally began.
On the day school started, I was wearing a clean white half sleeve shirt and a pair of jeans. They were all new clothes my mother had bought for me. As for my school bag, I carried the school bag I owned since junior high.
‘As expected, I was assigned to the parallel class with outstanding results.
‘When I entered the class, the students looked at me strangely.
It was as if I was incompatible with this class. And it was true. These students were all dressed up and wearing brands I didn’t recognize.
Treally did look quite cheap. I was the only one who’s wearing cheap clothes. However, this didn’t really affect me. This was because I knew my family background and I also knew that I couldn’t compare to these young misses and young masters.
However, being looked at by so many people inevitably made me feel inferior. I lowered my head and found an inconspicuous spot to sit.
But before I could warm up my seat, a voice sounded.
“There’s someone there. Please get off this seat.”
I found this person’s voice familiar and couldn’t help but look up curiously.
In fact, this was someone I knew very well. The other party was none other than my deskmate from junior high.
‘As soon as I saw that it was her, I knew what was going on. How could there be anyone in this seat? It was just that Li Ting was targeting me.
I didn’t want to lower myself to her level or cause trouble. I lowered my head and went to the back seat.
However, before I could sit down, Li Ting said to me, “There’s also someone here. You should find another seat. No, a person like you is not worthy of being in the same class as us. You should find another class. Don’t affect our desire to learn.”
As I looked at Li Ting, I thought about how Sister Anna told me that a weak person would always get bullied. I decided not to back down this time.
After all, I knew that the other party was looking for trouble. If I continued to back down, it would only make others think that I was easy to bully.
I glanced at her coldly and sat down.
Li Ting was stunned for a moment. She did not expect me to have such an attitude. She immediately tried to resolve the situation. After all, she probably wanted me to continue being bullied silently.
“Shen Ling, can’t you hear me say that there’s someone sitting there?” Li Ting asked me with a sunken face.

“[heard you, but where’s that person? Will that person be here in half an hour? Li Ting, I don’t want to provoke you, so can you also not provoke me? I just want to study well.”
Although my words were unyielding, there was still a trace of weakness in my tone.
Hearing this, Li Ting did not plan to let me off at all. Instead, she walked towards me step by step. I knew that she wanted to attack, but I was not afraid of this because I saw a figure at the door.
Just as Li Ting was about to slap me, a “stop” sounded, stopping her.
Li Ting looked at the door curiously. She wanted to see who would help me at this moment, but she was clearly stunned when she saw who it was.
This was because there was a middle-aged woman standing at the door. It was obvious that she was a teacher. She might even be our homeroom teacher.
‘When Li Ting saw this, she was stunned on the spot. She looked back at me slowly and asked, “Did you see her long ago?” I did not answer and began to pack my things.
“What are you doing?! Do you want to fight on the first day of school? Do you want to get lost as soon as you arrive? Why are you looking at me? Get back to your seat.”
The homeroom teacher berated Li Ting. When Li Ting heard this, she didn’t dare to say anything and could only retum to her seat angrily. However, after returning, she still looked at me fiercely. I knew that our relationship was somewhat irreconcilable.
However, I really hated these troubles. I only wanted to enter the focused class and receive a better education. This way, my chances of entering university would be higher.
After that, the homeroom teacher distributed our textbooks. Then, the homeroom teacher explained a lot about the school rules and the arrangements for the classes. Later on, I learned that the rules were only set for us good students who were obedient. For some people, the rules were just a joke.
After that, classes officially started. On the first day of class, the teachers would spend most of the time introducing themselves. The teachers would also take this opportunity to flatter and boast about themselves.
‘As Thad expected, Li Ting had become the social butterfly of the class. In less than half a day, she had mixed with a few people who looked like female thugs.
Li Ting mixed with the others after class and muttered something. Then, the few of them looked at me with ill intentions. My heart skipped a beat and I had a bad feeling.
Fortunately, they did not do anything to target me on this day.
However, the next few days were not easy for me. These days, that big mouth Li Ting had been spreading rumors about my mother everywhere.
Thad heard enough of such things in junior high school. In high school, I could already calmly face these rumors.
Of course, these people were even more ridiculous than in junior high school. They would put paper trash in my desk and throw trash at me after class.
I chose to endure this silently because I knew that it was useless to resist. At the very least, they weren’t too excessive in class and it had not affected my studies.
Every day when I go home, I get to see Sister Anna waiting for me at my place. Sister Anna would also ask me about my day at school.

T always picked some fun things from the class that were easy and pleasant to talk about. Sister Anna listened with interest.
Sister Anna told me to study hard. She had not attended school for many years, but she hoped that I would be able to learn from her regrets.
Tagreed in confusion.
The days after that were very calm. Although I was bullied, I knew that as long as I could get into the focused class, everything would end.
However, something happened that day that broke the peace.
