Chapter 37 Speed
Zhou Yuan has changed a lot since his diary was posted on the window by several classmates.
Catching the wanted criminal with her own hands had a huge impact on Zhou Yuan. Whenever she felt cowardly, shrinking, or afraid, that incident would unexpectedly appear in her mind, giving her unlimited courage and confidence.
She suddenly realized that the man she had always feared had become so old, tired, bloated, and useless. This man who was nominally her father might have been strong and fierce in the past, but now he was just a coward who vented his violence on women and children and sought a sense of dominance. When , for the first time Zhou Yuan did not curl up and suffer with her head in her arms, but resisted without hesitation. When she found that the natural difference in physical strength between men and women meant that she had no chance of winning, she turned around and ran away, all the way to the community police office, and saw Zhou Chengjun gave up chasing her in dismay.
Zhou Yuan knew that even if she called the police and reported her stepfather's domestic violence, the police would only be able to provide her with limited help . The most likely scenario was that Zhou Chengjun would be lectured verbally by the police and then give her a more severe beating when she got home. So Zhou Yuan simply did not go home. She applied for accommodation at the school's dormitory management office, then sold her cell phone at a discount, bought the cheapest sheets, quilts, toothbrushes, basins, etc. at the wholesale market, and settled down in the student dormitory.
Her mother Kong Yuhong went to the school to beg her to go home but to no avail, and threatened to cut off her living expenses. Zhou Yuan said firmly: "It's either him or me! It's either me or him! Mom, if you can only choose one between that man and me, who do you choose?"
Kong Yuhong wiped her tears and walked away, hoping that she would come back to persuade her father and daughter after a few days when their anger had subsided. The students in the dormitory who didn't know the inside story saw Zhou Yuan treating her mother like this, and looked at her with contempt.
Zhou Yuan didn't care, she turned around and found a big plastic bag to pick up the beverage bottles. There are thousands of teachers and students in No. 1 Middle School, and most of them are well-off, so the number of beverage bottles consumed every day is considerable. Zhou Yuan thought that if she collected these bottles and took them to the recycling station, she could sell them for a lot of money. As for dignity? After that incident, her face was thrown on the ground and stepped on again and again. The achievement of catching the wanted criminal made the principal and the head teacher no longer consider punishing her, but it did not prevent her from becoming a joke among all the students in the school as a "toad wanting to eat swan meat". It's already like this, even if she evolves into a "rag picker", what can it do?
She no longer had the ridiculous idea of swallowing her anger for the sake of her meager self-esteem. She didn't just pretend that she didn't care, but she really straightened her back and no longer took those rumors to heart.
After Rong Yuan discovered her feelings, he not only did not hate her but also pushed her to become a little hero. She did not tell anyone about this. Even when Jin Yang came to visit her later, she did not reveal a single word.
This is the secret treasure in her heart, supporting her back, supporting her smile, supporting her hope and tomorrow. She carefully protects it in her heart, and every time she touches it lightly, she feels warm and happy. This makes her never give up or despair in the most difficult times.
After she really put aside all her worries and worked hard to live for herself, Zhou Yuan found that it was not as difficult as she had originally imagined, and what she could do was beyond her expectations. After experiencing the initial confusion and hard struggle, Zhou Yuan's new life has gradually entered the right track. In addition to studying harder and living more frugally, she even found a part-time job that was paid by the hour, which was to wear thick doll costumes in the park to hand out flyers and play with children. It was very hard , but also very fulfilling.
One morning, Zhou Yuan went to distribute flyers half an hour earlier than usual and accidentally found Rong Yuan exercising in the fitness square of the park. Since then, she got up early every day and ran to the park, just to wait for Rong Yuan to run by the lake and take a look at him, but she never took off her doll costume to say hello. Even so, she could be in high spirits all day.
This day was just like any other day. Zhou Yuan hid in the bulky doll costume and saw Rong Yuan jogging towards her from a distance through the small hole in the hood. She couldn't help but breathe slowly. Then she saw from a distance that Rong Yuan suddenly stopped and looked to the side. His face was pale. Although his expression was blank, one could feel his extreme fear.
Then he flew out at an unimaginable speed!
Zhou Yuan often saw adjectives like "lightning speed". She always thought this sentence was a bit exaggerated, but at this moment, Zhou Yuan realized the accuracy of this word. In just a moment, Rong Yuan rushed out of her field of vision. The grass where he was standing was even cracked, and the dark brown soil was turned out.
Zhou Yuan turned around hurriedly and saw Rong Yuanfei rushing over to hug the astonished Jin Yang. A black car rushed towards them from behind Jin Yang.
But it's too close!
The distance between the front of the car and the two of them was very close, and the speed was very fast. There was not enough time for them to rush out of the impact range of the car. Rong Yuan only had time to pull Jin Yang and turn around, and move his body towards the black car.
“Aaaaaaaa——”
Zhou Yuan couldn't control herself and closed her eyes. She opened her mouth and let out a sharp scream that was not like a human voice.
“Bang! Bang!”
