"How do you know that I live here?" Qiao Ruo'an sat up straight, with his back against the car door, a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

It's not for nothing that he's so nervous.

Before the transfer, the gangsters in the school found his home address and chased him for half a month. During that time, he couldn't eat or sleep well, and he lived in fear every day, and he still has lingering fear.

"I saw your personal information when I was resigning." Gu Jinbei replied truthfully, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else."

Qiao Ruo'an didn't expect to get Gu Jinbei's promise, but hearing him say that now, she was a little moved.

Just about to thank you, the door lock opened with a "click", followed by Gu Jinbei's deep voice: "I will pick you up tomorrow morning, you are not allowed to leave unless you see my car."

……

Qiao Ruo'an stood on the side of the road and watched the car drive away. It was not until the blackness disappeared at the end of the road that he finally regained his thoughts and returned from illusion to reality.

A gust of night wind hit, Qiao Ruo'an shivered, and put his hands in his pockets.

Just as he was about to walk back, a bitter voice suddenly came from behind him:

"I knew you did some shameful job, and you came home so late every day."

Qiao Ruoan's heart missed a beat, and when he turned around, he saw a woman wrapped in a cotton coat standing at the door, staring at him coldly.

"Mom? Why are you here?"

Zhou Xiuhong snorted lightly, and asked instead, "Who was the person who brought you back just now?"

"It's... a classmate."

"Classmate? Do you think I'm a fool?" Zhou Xiuhong sneered, the sneer almost overflowing from her lips.

She knew very well about Qiao Ruoan being excluded at school. The person who sent him to the door in the middle of the night could never be a classmate.

"That car looks quite expensive. It belongs to a big boss, right? You don't come home until midnight every day. Did you go to accompany him to do something nasty?" Zhou Xiuhong asked aggressively, blocking the door to prevent him from entering.

"I didn't..." Qiao Ruoan frowned, not wanting to continue this topic.

He was tired all day, and his ribs were aching again. He just wanted to go back quickly to check the injury.

Seeing his tired appearance, Zhou Xiuhong didn't make things difficult anymore, but she changed the subject and said something even more shocking.

"Actually, you can do this job, but is the money too little? This month's living expenses are a few hundred less than last month. Did you hide it secretly?"

"All the money is given to you," Qiao Ruoan explained wearily, "I had an exam last month, and I took a few days off, so..."

"Ask for leave?" Zhou Xiuhong sneered again, "You still need to study for your bottom grades?"

Qiao Ruo'an pursed her lips, and originally wanted to endure the calm for a while, but after hearing what her mother said, the negative emotions that had accumulated all day finally broke through.

"Who did I go out to work for, not for Qiao Jiali, but for this family, if I could study with peace of mind every day like him, how could my grades be so poor?"

Qiao Ruoan also has a biological brother named Qiao Jiali, who is one year younger than him and is a freshman in high school this year.

Back then, Qiao's father, Qiao's mother, discovered Qiao Ruo'an's strangeness when he gave birth to him. However, due to the lack of information and the underdeveloped medical level in the countryside, the couple did not send Qiao Ruo'an to the doctor in time. Instead, they seized the time to conceive a second child and gave birth to Qiao Jiali.

On the day Qiao Jiali was born, the sky that had been gloomy for a long time suddenly cleared up. Seeing the healthy and lovely little son, Qiao's father and mother were overjoyed and named him "Jiali".

Jiali Jiali, the best gift from God.

The birth of Qiao Jiali brought hope back to the couple, so they are very partial to him. Although the two sons are only one year apart, they teach Qiao Ruoan to give way to his younger brother in every way, and to cling to Qiao Jiali first if there is any good thing.

Such days lasted for a long time until Qiao Ruoan ushered in puberty.

Adolescent children are sensitive and fragile, and their cognition becomes clearer under the collision of various ideas. Qiao Ruoan, who is ignorant, finally realizes that he is not the good brother who tolerates in the eyes of his parents, but the abandoned son of the Qiao family.

A complete loser.

No one cares about his thoughts and feelings, all good things are born for Qiao Jiali, and he can only exchange for small benefits by constantly squeezing himself dry.

Qiao Ruoan also thought about resisting.

It's just that after so many years, his character has long been humbled and weakened by life, like a bird that has lost its wings and no longer has the ability to fly.

"Okay, you've learned to talk back, haven't you?"

Unexpectedly, the eldest son who had always been docile would suddenly resist, Zhou Xiuhong was so annoyed that she grabbed Qiao Ruoan's ear and twisted it hard.

The severe pain made Qiao Ruo'an's eyes go dark, and his legs almost went limp and he knelt on the ground.

"If it weren't for your deformity and withdrawn personality, we would be laughed at every day?"

"Let me tell you Qiao Ruo'an, what you are doing now is not a contribution at all, but a redemption, do you understand the redemption!"

Zhou Xiuhong raised her voice, her eyes were about to split open, every word pierced into Qiao Ruoan's heart like a sharp knife.
