"Fu Di, let's go to the library together later to study and read. After we finish reading, we can go see the newly released movie, 'The Disappearing Wife'. It's all the rage online!"
"Wait for me, I need to wash my hair first."
Her roommate was a carefree girl.
Coming from a wealthy family, she was aware that Fu Di had cut ties with her parents to focus on her studies, leading to her living a rather frugal life. So, she would often treat Fu Di to meals and movies.
While waiting for her roommate, Fu Di sat on the bed, browsing videos on her phone, which she had purchased from her part-time job earnings.
Upon recognizing the face of the adulteress from one of the videos, Fu Di's heart pounded.
Mother!
Aunt!
Cousin!
In an instant, it was as if Fu Di's blood had frozen!
It seemed that this student named Gu Sang, who had stood up for her last time, was now being targeted by her own relatives!
This was criminal!
Had they all gone mad? Didn't they know the consequences?
When she was younger, she was powerless to change the fate of the college students who were deceived and abducted.
But now she was an adult, she must, absolutely must, stop such behavior! Not to mention, it was this female classmate who had helped her escape from her miserable family before.
"Hey, Fu Di, are you watching this video too?"
"Don't you think the woman in the video looks familiar? It's infuriating to watch!"
Another roommate walked in, hearing the video and guessing it was the trending video about catching the mistress.
Fearful that her roommate would recognize that the woman was her own mother, Fu Di quickly put her phone away and shook her head.
The roommate continued, disgruntled, "The comments on this video are so negative."
"I replied to one of them yesterday, saying that while mistresses are disgraceful, the wife should still remain calm. And why only punish the mistress and not the man? The bias towards men is too serious, fear men, bully women. If someone gets hurt, they will be legally responsible."
"Do you know what netizens said? They actually said that if the man is hit, the family will be ruined, so they can only kill the mistress."
"Huh, they are all ignorant of the law. If someone really gets killed, not only will they have to go to jail, but their children will also be implicated..."
As Fu Di listened to these words, she suddenly felt a chill, quickly realizing the reality of the situation.
Her heart was filled with both shock and fear.
The fear was that she had almost called the police to provide clues!
No matter how despicable those people were, they were still her mother and aunt! She could renounce these familial ties in name, but would the law recognize that?
No!
If her parents were to go to jail, her life would be ruined!
She had worked so hard for her civil service exams, they couldn't be ruined here, they couldn't...
A mix of emotions flashed in Fu Di's eyes - conflict, anger, helplessness, guilt, and finally, all of these turned into bystander syndrome.
Fu Di bowed her head, struggling internally, and muttered, "I'm sorry, no one has ever been able to save me, only I can save myself. I don't want to go back to that mountain."
"You would understand, wouldn't you, junior sister?"
"I'm not not helping you, but I really need to pass the civil service exam. You've helped me once, think of this as helping me one more time, forgive me...."
-
Clang, clang.
That was the sound of chains unlocking from outside.
Gu Sang quickly put on the handcuffs for show.
Her younger brother came in with food.
After several days of interaction, Gu Sang had figured out the situation in the village.
A fair number of university students had been deceived into coming to this village, but they were too impoverished. Apart from a handful who stayed in the village, most were sold to Old Wang from another village.
Old Wang was responsible for checking the goods, assessing their looks, setting a price, and finding a buyer.
Old Wang had come over two days ago, first examining Gu Sang's appearance. It seemed that in the end, he hadn't reached an agreement with the woman over the price.
Old Wang's highest offer was only 380,000, but the woman stuck to her price of 500,000!
Seeing her brother once again trying to brainwash her, Gu Sang asked with a complex expression, "Have you ever resented your sister? She decided to continue her studies and didn't follow your arrangement."
In the eyes of her brother, there was a mix of complexity and envy. "I resented her at first."
"Anyone born in such a place would want to escape. Fortunately, she was determined and got into a top university in China. If she was even a bit less capable, she wouldn't have been able to leave the village."
"My mother said that university students are worth more, so she only agreed to let her study for half a year to increase her value..."
Gu Sang glanced at the sky.
It was dusk.
No, she had to wait another two hours!
Night was the best time!
Thinking this, Gu Sang looked at her brother with a resigned gaze, begging him.
For a beautiful woman, men are always weak. "Honestly, I like you a lot. Can I marry you?"
"I guess you're the only one in this village who would be kind to me. If you just want to sell me for a good price, I have money."
"Can I use money to buy a chance to marry you? I'm scared, I'm afraid if I marry someone else, they'll beat me. If you married me, you definitely wouldn't hit me, right?"
"Can you help me talk to your mom and brother? Please?"
Did you hear that? How desperate she sounded.
Gu Sang was disgusted with herself.
Damn it!
She had to deal with that wretched woman before she could escape!
Her brother swiftly stood up from his seat, seemingly very happy and excited. His eyes sparkled as he looked at Gu Sang.
He nodded repeatedly, his desire clouding his judgement. "Okay, I'll go talk to my mom!"
"If you can come up with the money my brother wants for a wife, it should be possible. Wait for me, I'll go find them now."
Around nine in the evening.
The sound of chains echoed outside again, as the woman and her older son walked in, laughing and joking.
As soon as the brother entered, he jumped straight to the topic: "I heard from my brother that you have money in your card. How much do you have?"
Gu Sang lied convincingly, "My family is quite well-off, probably around 500,000 or so."
"Auntie, older brother, come over here. I'll tell you how to do online transfers and the password. I'm too hungry to talk now."
The brother and the woman, in their excitement, were only thinking about getting rich!
But the two of them didn't notice that the handcuffs on Gu Sang's hands had been opened!
The woman and the brother, confident and greedy, squatted down next to Gu Sang, "As long as you give us all the money, I can guarantee you—"
Suddenly!
Caught completely off guard, Gu Sang acted swiftly, putting the chains around the brother and the woman's necks and using all her strength to strangle them!
If it weren't for the fact that killing was against the law, Gu Sang truly wished she could kill them outright!
"aaa......" The woman and brother's eyes were rolling uncontrollably, staring at Gu Sang in disbelief and agony.
Lowering her voice, Gu Sang strangled the two until their tongues stiffened, then she ferociously smashed their heads with a chain: "Die, you tumors!"
"Clang, clang, clang——"
"a...... save, save......"
"Save your mother! Daring to capture me, to spray knockout gas on me, to sell me for money, if I can't take your lives, then I'll make sure you'll have no descendants!"
"Clang, clang, clang——"
"Everyone in the village is no good, all of you can go eat peanuts! You filthy maggots!"
Blood soaked the woman's head as her face twisted in pain, her lips turned purple as she passed out.
The brother's mouth gaped open in a way that seemed like he was about to suffocate to death.
Half a minute later.
Gu Sang threw the two on the ground, then tightly covered the brother's mouth, lifted her foot, and with all her might, ruthlessly stomped on his lower body!
"Crack!"
It seemed as if something had shattered——
