Chapter 19: Powerlessness
The yellow-haired man hurt my sister, the head teacher's scolding is not helping, and I'm afraid of my parents.
My sister was beaten as a child, and was scolded at every opportunity. Although my sister is now grown up and is not always at home, I am sure that my parents will still not look kindly towards her.
The more I thought about it, the more anxious I was, I ran to the entrance of Takasu High School but couldn't get in, this time without Lin Yin Yin leading the way, the doorman wouldn't let me in.
I had no choice but to climb the wall. I went around to the back, and after climbing once last time I was familiar with it, I went up the tree and over the wall again, and then leapt into the playground.
It was morning, and the weekend, so there were no people in the playground. I took a look around and then ran towards Li Xin's classroom.
If she does not work odd jobs, she will definitely be studying, and I can only go to her classroom to look for her, perhaps the leader has temporarily let her go.
There was nothing on the way to the classroom, but there were more people there. The school is really extraordinary, and there are people studying during the morning of a weekend.
I wiped away my sweat and went upstairs to Li Xin's classroom, and I already knew where, and went over to see that there were about ten students in the classroom, but not Li Xin.
I was anxious and asked a girl in the hallway, "Where is Li Xin?"
She shrugged her shoulders and said she didn't know, so I said go to the classroom and ask for me.
She was not too happy but she went in and asked, and came out half a dozen times and told me, "They said Li Xin was taken away by the teacher, saying it was too early to fall in love."
I said where was she taken? She shrugged her shoulders again, impatiently said how would she know.
I saw that she did not want to care about me, I was depressed, I exhaled and left. According to my assumptions, Li Xin should be in the teacher's lounge or something like that, if they were waiting for our parents, they must be in the teachers lounge.
I rushed to find the teachers' lounge, I kept looking but could not find anything, I went to find someone to ask if they knew where she was, and surprisingly no one knew.
When I was exasperated, someone shouted at me from behind. I turned my head to look, and it was Qin Lan.
She was in good spirits, and didn't look sickly anymore, so it seems that the hotel made her very happy ah.
I was in a hurry to find the teaching office, so I hurriedly asked her, "Where is the teachers lounge?"
She was still temperamental: "It's over there, cant you see it?"
If I could fucking it, why would I ask you? I told her to take me, she immediately was upset: "Why?"
This woman really wants to fight with me, in short, what I say she does not listen to. I was also annoyed, and said I really saved you for nothing, what a waste of my money.
This woman clicked her tongue and walked over: "It wasn't a lot. By the way, give me some money to eat breakfast."
Yesterday I went to save your life, you fucking still take advantage of me. I lifted my foot to move: "Get out of the way!"
She was so angry that she gritted her teeth, I did not give a shit, and ran to another room. She actually followed me and cursed: "Can you be more generous? Hurry up and pay."
Pay you my ass, I turned around and scolded her: "I told you to go away, I don't have time to bullshit with you."
My tone of voice is quite nonchalant, Qin Lan gripped her palm in anger, I again do not care about her, she suddenly cursed: "You caused me to shave every day, so dont think you can get out of this, Daye!" (TN: Daye, means uncle, used as a respectful title while referring to older men.)
This stunned me, I had to calm down my heart and stop: "What did you say?"
She moved her eyes to the ground and then stared at me, seemingly unreservedly: "You have no idea how painful it is for me to grow new hair every day, it's itchy, hard and painful, shouldn't you pay more for this?"
What the heck? I was confused, she showed a rare trace of embarrassment and shame, then turned around and left: "I'll go away, when I have money, Im going to punish you!
She was angry with me, I know that. What I couldn't figure out was what she meant by her hair. Itchy? Pain? What the hell?
I can't figure it out, and I don't know why, but my anger has subsided. But I cannot chase after her, I'm here for my sister.
I shook my head to cast aside my doubts and continued to look for the teachers' lounge. Then finally I found it, but the fucking door was closed, there was no activity, it was impossible to go in, right?
However, a student pointed out something to me, I cursed a few times and saw the old sign at the teachers' lounge.
The door was shut and the windows were also shut, and the air conditioner was probably on inside. I got close to the door and listened for anything. I faintly heard some cursing, and my heart was in turmoil, it was my father's voice. (TN: Nooooo)
My parents really came, and already began to swear. I was so anxious that I couldn't see inside, and the cracked window was opaque.
I looked around, the teachers' lounge was on the first floor, it was just like a small classroom, and there should be a window near the back.
I rushed around to the back of the building, which was behind a ditch, and it was near the dormitory area.
I walked along the ditch, carefully checking the location, and then felt a few traces of cool air from the air conditioning.
The next 80% of the building was the teachers' lounge. The windows were still opaque, but there were gaps between the window panes. I leaned down to look through the gap.
I could not see completely, and there was a big fat man sitting on a chair in front of the window, blocking most of the view.
Looking back again, I saw my parents. I still can't see all of them, I can occasionally see their faces.
I was very worried, busy looking for Li Xin. Li Xin must also be inside, because my parents are scolding her. But I couldn't see her, no matter how many angles I looked from, she must be cowering near the corner. (TN: Noooo.)
I wanted to smash the window, but I couldn't do it, my parents were inside.
The abuse continues, I can hear it clearly here, my parents are scolding Li Xin for not knowing anything about premature love, if the neighbors knew what she was doing, they would say she's a bitch.
Since the beginning, Li Xin has not said a word, she has been silent. My heart is worried and anxious, and I secretly thought, speak... ah, explain a little... ah.
Even if it is useless, at least defend yourself, this is entirely the fault of the yellow-haired man, why must you suffer?
I stared dryly, and then my parents became quieter, the big fat person also said a couple of things, and then I finally heard Li Xin speak: "I was wrong, I won't do it again."
She had 3 quarters of aggression in her voice, but the rest was apathetic. I suddenly felt saddened, she was so used to being scolded, she was used to it
It felt like I was going to cry, fuck the yellow-haired man!
And what happened next was I heard the big fat guy tell Li Xin to write a referral, and get a ban on getting too close to boys. Li Xin promised to come by to have one-on-one chats with a teacher, my parents apologized again and said nice things, and then were going to go home.
I also let out a sigh of relief, but the next moment Li Xin suddenly screamed in pain, my father was cursing: " From now on if you still dare to fall in love prematurely, I will break your legs!"
My eyes widened, and my father obviously kicked Li Xin, I finally saw Li Xin, she was kicked to the ground, and her cheek was right in front of the window.
She was wincing, but her eyes were dead and she apologized almost mechanically, "I was wrong, I wouldn't dare anymore."
The big fat man had gotten up and told my father to calm down, while my father was still trying to give Li Xin a kick, presumably dissatisfied with Li Xin's attitude.
When I could not control my emotions, I slapped on the window with my palm. All four people inside looked over. (TN: THANK YOU OMGGGG)
My lips trembled a little, and I moved my body away from the wall to catch my breath. The big fat guy came over to open the window suspiciously, I hurried to stabilize my emotions and ran away. (TN: DANG IT YOU WIMP)
My sister was beaten again, I had thought about this situation before I came, if she was beaten what would I do? Disown my parents? I was reluctant to face this situation inside, those are my parents after all, I can't teach them a lesson.
I just hope that this matter is just forgotten. After running away I did not leave immediately, but I watched from afar.
My parents soon walked out and the big fat guy saw them off, while Li Xin followed behind with her head down.
She looked okay, and wasn't beaten too much. I was glad and heartbroken, I always wanted to protect her, but it turned out that I couldn't always protect her.
My parents soon left, and Li Xin walked calmly towards the classroom. I followed her, I don't know why I followed her, maybe I wanted to see more of her.
Then she cried. When she went up the stairs, before she turned the corner, she crouched there and cried, no sound, just her shoulders jerked. (TN: Nooooo stoppppp.)
The indescribable ache and bitterness assaulted me, and my body tensed up together, and my eyes were watery.
I just looked at her like a stranger, not daring to approach her at all. After a few minutes, Li Xin stood up again, wiped her tears with her hand, and continued to go upstairs calmly.
I didn't follow her up, I would have been found out. I just left with my head down and walked to the playground and kicked the tree under the wall a few times, fuck you fucking tree!
No one was around, and I went out over the wall in silence, my heart clouded.
The morning sun had become fierce, I scratched my head and thought for a long time, my mind was at a loss.
But while I was walking to the breakfast store when someone interrupted my deep thoughts.
Qin Lan was sneering next to me, looking like she wanted something from me. I very much want to take my anger out on her, but I just let out a bitter laugh, pulled out ten dollars and gave it to her: "Go eat breakfast."
Qin Lan accepted it, and I was walking past her to go to the milk tea store to chat with Sister Xia, about my sister.
I walked away, Qin Lan frowned: "You're going to be in trouble, ah."
I did not respond, she seemed very upset: "Do not go over there, there are some punks over there, don't mess with them."
I was stunned and said what the hell? She rolled her eyes: "Over at the milk tea store, a lot of punk suddenly came, I guess there is something happening, you shouldn't go over."
If everything was normal, I would certainly not go over, but they are in the milk tea store, the milk tea store and Li Xin are related, I must go over.
I ran over, and I didn't even go that far when three motorcycles rumbled past, directly into the alley.
I could see clearly, its the yellow-haired man who was leading, he called so many punks, for what?
I was amazed, Qin Lan caught up to me and sneered: "Stupid bastards"
I do not have time to worry about her now, I said you go eat breakfast ah, you have no reason to follow me.
She froze, seemingly also not understanding why she would follow me, and then she was particularly irritated: "Your good intentions are not reciprocated, bye, don't let me see you in the future, or I'll pluck all your pubes!"
