"Boom boom boom…"
The knocking sound, neither light nor heavy, made Li Mei feel annoyed and uncomfortable.
She looked up suddenly and met a strange and serious face. The owner of the face was very dissatisfied with her.
Mei Mei frowned, feeling a pain in her abdomen. She couldn't help but whimper. Her face was pale, sweat dripped down her fair and delicate cheeks, and she looked painful.
The owner was stunned for a moment. He thought she was sleeping, but she was actually sick?
He bent down slightly and whispered, "Classmate, are you sick? Can you hold on? If not, I'll have someone take you to the hospital."
"Classmate?"
Mei Mei suddenly looked at owner, wanting to confirm whether he was calling her or a classmate.
The owner was puzzled by her anxious and surprised look, and asked again: "Classmate, do you need to go to the hospital?"
Mei Mei pupils shrank, and her voice became a little hoarse, nervous and uncertain, as she asked, "What time is it now?"
He thought she was asking about the time, so he looked at his watch. It was a Shanghai brand watch, which was very distinctive and contemporary in this era.
Her gaze fell on the watch , her eyes become dim and unclear.
He said, "The exam has started for half an hour. Can you still take the exam? If not, don't force yourself. If you can't take it this year, you can try again next year. The college entrance examination has been resumed and will definitely continue. There is no need to worry about it being suspended again."
"What?"
The college entrance examination has been resumed?.....
After hearing these few words, Mei Mei began to tremble all over. The college entrance examination was resumed in 1977. In order to escape from her nightmare-like life, she resolutely took the exam.
As a result, during the exam, she suffered from severe abdominal pain, performed poorly, and ultimately failed.
Her best friend said that it must be her mother-in-law and husband who didn't want her to pass the exam and wanted to prevent her from abandoning her husband and children and leaving, so they made her have a stomachache on purpose.
She firmly believed it. No matter how her mother-in-law and husband explained, she would not listen. She threw a tantrum and cursed, venting her anger in various ways, and in return she got a divorce certificate.
Mei Mei thought she was free and happily set out on the journey back to the city.
At home, ten years ago, her father disappeared and was declared dead after a fruitless search. He was also accused of treason. Her mother left in a hurry to find her husband, and she had no choice but to rush to the countryside.
When she came back ten years later, her aunt and cousin took pity on her, took her in, took care of her, and treated her with great care. Mei Mei was filled with gratitude and trusted them wholeheartedly in return.
Who would have thought that they are man-eating wolves and blood-drinking knives.
In order to improve his career, her aunt sold her to a perverted old man as his lover.
she tried her best to beat the perverted man, and finally escaped with the help of kind people.
As misfortunes never come singly, she met kidnappers as soon as she went out, and was locked up in a dark room for three days and three nights, without food or light. She cried out to the sky and the earth, but no one answered her call, and she was almost on the verge of collapse.
The traffickers originally wanted to sell her into the mountains to be shared by several brothers.
Unexpectedly, a blood test showed that her heart matched that of a rich man, and she was then sold to a black clinic.
On the operating table, she was shaking with fear, feeling desperate and helpless. She thought she would die in this hell on earth where no one knew about it.
But she didn't expect that her ex-husband, whom she had hated and resented for ten years, would rescue her in a blazing fire.
In the fire, she was intact, but he was burned beyond recognition.
Mei Mei couldn't tell whether she felt pain or hatred at that time, but she just couldn't understand why. He was obviously just an uneducated gangster, a cruel and ruthless bully, and she was just his boring pastime, and the object of conquest whose dignity as a man was challenged.
Why would he risk his life to save her?She couldn't figure out why, but she realized that this ex-husband, with whom she had lived like a stranger for ten years, a man who had tolerated and accommodated her in the past ten years, had already taken root in her heart and had developed feelings for her.
It's not that she can't see his goodness, she just doesn't want to see it, and she finds all kinds of excuses to deny his kindness to her.
When she realized where she was and wanted to turn back, there was no trace of him.
Mei Mei guessed that he might hate her, so he left without saying goodbye.
She was too ashamed to go back and look for him, and the hatred in her heart would not allow her to just let it go. Her life from now on was destined to be dedicated to hatred. She didn't want to burden the man and family she had hurt again.
In order to seek revenge, Mei Mei forgot about her family and love, and focused on collecting evidence of her aunt's crimes, who had already reached a high position and was far beyond her reach.
But she was too stupid after all. She had planned for a long time, but still made one wrong move and died at the hands of her cousin.
Before she died, the cousin who was always gentle and kind in front of her told her with a grim face that if it were not for her ex-husband's protection, she would have become an unknown bone in the remote countryside and would not have returned to the Li family alive.
If she had been a contented farm wife, under the protection of a man from the mountains, she might have died of old age.
But she was stupid and believed the instigation of her so-called good sisters. She couldn't see the reality and hurt others and herself.
Her cousin's words made Mei Mei feel as if she had just woken up from a dream. Thinking back on the past, she found that she was really stupid and bad.
With regret and unwillingness, she closed her eyes.
When I opened my eyes again, I was in the college entrance examination hall.
The pain in her abdomen told her clearly that this was not a dream.
The Invigilator saw that Li Mei's face had turned even paler and her whole body was trembling as if she was seriously ill. He stood up and was about to go outside to call for help.
Mei Mei came back to her senses quickly. No, she couldn't make the same mistake again. She had to pass the college entrance examination and protect her family and loved ones.
"Teacher, I can."
"I can take the test."
The Invigilator frowned and looked at heruncertainly:
"Can you really do it? But don't ruin your body just for an exam."
She pursed her red lips. The severity of an exam is not determined by the exam itself, but by what the examinee gets from the exam.
