When I first started making videos, I did encounter some sleazy men who pretended to be my fans and placed orders for me, trying to assault me. Fortunately, I was live streaming all the time, and my fans directly called the police for me. After that, some fans suggested that I buy some self-defense items, so I did. Moreover, every time before I go out to install computers, I will first confirm via video call that the other party really has the computer parts that need to be installed. I will post a "departure" update on my account and a "safe return" update after getting home safely. Also, to prevent someone from unlocking my phone with my fingerprint after I am attacked, I have turned off all fingerprint and facial recognition functions, leaving only password unlocking.
Alex didn't seem to expect that my life was like this. He was in a state of shame due to his subverted cognition. After a long time, he said, "Fortunately, you are home now. You don't need to work so hard to make money anymore." Hearing this, the smile on my face faded a bit. I looked away at the fleeting street scene outside the car window and said faintly, "Forget it. At least I can support myself now. Even if I am kicked out in the future, I won't be unable to survive." "You are your parents' biological daughter. Who would kick you out!" Alex retorted. I was too lazy to argue with him. I just closed my eyes and said without any emotion, "Is there a family that welcomes their biological daughter home and prepares a guest room for her?" At this moment, Alex fell silent again, and then apologized shamefully again. We didn't say a word to each other all the way until we got home.
As soon as Anna saw us come back, she ran over and grabbed David's sleeve, but her eyes were on me. "Alex, has sister agreed to return the room to me?" Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for everyone in the living room to hear. Sitting on the sofa, Mr. and Mrs. Ellie frowned when they heard this, but they didn't stop Anna from speaking. After all, even though they had realized their partiality and injustice, they still favored and pitied Anna more in their hearts. Really, it's quite meaningless. I unconsciously clenched my fist. I somewhat regretted coming back with Mr. Ellie. But this time, David stood by my side. "Sister Anna, you said you would give up the room. Once you say it, you have to be responsible. Don't do this again in the future..." After all, they grew up together. David couldn't bear to say something too harsh. But Anna couldn't accept his change in attitude. She looked at him with tears in her eyes and called out in disbelief, "Alex?" Seeing Anna's expression, Alex was obviously distressed, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Anyway, the room on the third floor has the same layout as the original room. Sister Anna, if you like the original one, decorate it as it was." At this moment, the clenched palm of my hand suddenly loosened. As I did before going out in the morning, I politely said to Mr. and Mrs. Ellie, "Mom and Dad, I'll go back to my room and rest first." Then I went upstairs briskly.
The next day, the interior designer invited by Mrs. Ellie came. After I finished editing the video to be released next week, I opened the door, stretched, and leaned against the doorframe. I looked at the workers who were busy redecorating Anna's room up and down. Then I glanced at Mrs. Ellie who was standing by the stairs and constantly telling the designer about Anna's preferences. I directly closed the door and opened my exercise book to start doing exercises. I am in my sophomore year of high school and am at one of the most important stages of life. I can't waste my time and energy on competing with Anna for my family's love, which is a fruitless thing. I stayed in my room like this all day and did exercises for a whole day. Until before dinner, when I walked out of my room, I saw Anna who had been wandering outside my room for I don't know how long. As soon as she saw me, she walked over with a smug face and whispered beside me, "Alice, don't think that just because you took my room, you can shake my position in Mom and Dad's hearts. "Don't be delusional. Look, when you came back, Mom and Dad didn't even bother to prepare a room for you. But when I lost my room, they immediately decorated a better one for me." "First of all, that's not called taking. Everything you have in this family is because you took my place. "Secondly, did you wait outside my room for a whole day just to tell me this?" I sincerely suggested to her, "Seriously, I think if you have this free time, you'd better make an appointment with an expert to check your brain as soon as possible." After saying that, I went downstairs to the dining room, leaving her standing there in impotent rage.
"By the way, Alice, your household registration has been transferred. Mom and Dad plan to let you go to the same high school as Anna, St. George. What do you think?" During dinner, Mrs. Ellie suddenly asked me. St. George is the best private aristocratic school in City A. But after a little thought, I still refused. "No, I can go to a public school. No. 1 Middle School is fine." "No way." Mr. Ellie immediately vetoed. "The teaching quality of No. 1 Middle School is good, but the teaching staff of St. George is not worse than that of No. 1 Middle School. Moreover, as our daughter, on the one hand, getting into a good school is important. On the other hand, you also need to learn to integrate into our current social circle." Seeing that I had no reaction, Mr. Ellie continued, "I know you are opinionated, but you also need to understand that in the future after entering society, ability is one aspect, and connections are also very important. "Why do you think most of those poor students who are admitted to famous schools can't rise to the upper class? "It's not because they don't have ability, but because their environment restricts their development." "Okay, I understand." I nodded seriously. Mr. Ellie's words are indeed reasonable. And since I want to start my own business in the future, making some connections is not a bad thing. "But before going to St. George, I have a request." I said. "Tell me." Mr. Ellie said. "Announce my identity and Anna's identity."
