Quick-wear flirting system: being spoiled by gods in the plane

Chapter 198 Even Professors Confess—Female Protagonist's Perspective [Part 1] (44)

Her parents divorced secretly when she was nine years old.

On New Year's Eve, the three of them returned home after having dinner at a relative's house.

Dad drank a lot of alcohol, and his face turned red.

He collapsed onto the sofa, unable to get up, and kept muttering Chang Le's name.

The mother gave him a cold look and let the girl walk over.

"Dad..." Chang Le called out anxiously, never having seen a man like this before.

Her father held her hand tightly, his eyes red and groggy as he murmured:
"Changle, you need to take good care of yourself..."

"take care……"

The man kept shouting, and Chang Le was held tightly, looking helplessly at her father and then at her mother.

She didn't know at the time.
My mother stole the household registration book that my grandmother had hidden, divorced my father, and left with nothing.

She was awarded to her father's custody, but she has always lived in Hecheng. Her father's hometown is in another district. She will be transferring schools, and her grandmother is reluctant to let her go.

Mom and Dad discussed it and agreed that Mom would leave with nothing in exchange for her daughter living with her maternal grandmother and continuing her studies in Hecheng.

But at that time, there was no place for her mother to stay in Hecheng, nor a home for Changle.

After the mother left with nothing, the father locked up the only house that the family of three had before leaving, forbidding anyone from entering.

Chang Le's mother's younger brother, Chang Le's maternal uncle, had just gotten married and had a new house, but the house was already occupied by the newlyweds and their maternal grandparents, and there was no room for Chang Le.

But she still moved in.

I live in the small room that my uncle and aunt gave to their future child.

-

Her aunt didn't like her.

Or,

I don't like her living in this house.

-

Dad said Mom was cheating on him because he caught a gigolo.

Mom said Dad cheated on her because she caught the other woman.

The two argued endlessly about this, and eventually came to blows.

-

Chang Le has changed.

He became increasingly taciturn and timid, and would deliberately scratch his arms, clench his fist with all four fingernails, and pinch his thumb to leave a crescent moon.

Chang Le could sense that she was no longer the same Chang Le she used to be.

-

She despises all disloyal people.

-

My mother has a new home, and she took her there with her.

My stepfather is a very worldly uncle. He drives a taxi, has tattoos, a cheerful and outgoing personality, a wide network of connections, and is very talkative. He is quite different from my shy and reserved father.

She had met him before her parents divorced.

-

My uncle has a son who is a college student.

When he's not home, Chang Le sleeps in his room.

When he came back, Chang Le was sleeping on the sofa.

But when the living room gets dark and everyone goes back to their rooms and closes their doors, Chang Le will be so scared that she will burrow into the blankets, covering herself completely from head to toe, regardless of the season.

She naturally sweats a lot, which means the sofa and bed sheets are always stained with sweat. Unlike the heroines in novels who are covered in fragrant sweat, her sweat smells bad.

Her mother told her not to do that.

But Chang Le was afraid, and Chang Le had no choice.

-

One day after school, her mother and uncle came to pick her up in their car.

She was very happy.

When Chang Le saw that the road the vehicle was traveling on was not the road back to his uncle's house, he was a little confused.

Her mother sat in the passenger seat and handed her a package containing her clothes.

"Your father has a girlfriend who is your uncle's ex-girlfriend."

“That woman is not kind-hearted. She kept pestering your uncle to get back together with him, but your uncle refused, so she took her revenge on your father.”

"Your dad is such an honest man, he'll get swindled out of every penny."

The mother continued talking to herself, and the uncle driving the car nodded in agreement.

"So, Chang Le, we're going to send you to that woman's house. Go and cause a ruckus, make a huge fuss!"

Mom was still talking, but Chang Le couldn't understand.

She was 9 years old that year.

-

Chang Le stayed at the house of that strange aunt.

She didn't make a fuss, and her aunt didn't treat her badly.

My aunt's daughter is in high school, and she gives her a lollipop when she comes home from school.

Every morning, her aunt would take her to school, and Changle would walk back by herself in the evening.

But it still feels strange.

Later I found out that while that aunt was taking care of her, she was also arguing with my mother on her phone, saying that she sweated a lot, smelled bad, and was no good.

"..."

-

I only stayed in that unfamiliar home for three days.

When her maternal grandmother came to pick her up from school, she discovered that she was taking the wrong route home. After learning the whole story, her grandmother called and berated her mother and uncle, then took her back to her uncle's house.

She moved back to her uncle's house.

She moved from one home that didn't belong to her to another home that didn't belong to her either.

-

In sixth grade, her grades dropped drastically.

He only scored a little over sixty points on his math test, and the teacher hit his palms twenty times with a tree branch in front of the whole class.

Green.

It hurts.

It doesn't hurt.

-

My aunt got pregnant but miscarried.

It's a boy.

-

Dad has a new family.

They said they met through a blind date.

The aunt moved into the house that Dad had always kept locked up.

-

When she was in the first year of junior high school, her father found Chang Le and asked her to show him a photo.

It was a baby lying in an incubator.

"Changle, this is your little sister," Dad said.

younger sister.

She only learned of her half-sister's existence after she was born.

-

During the Chinese New Year, her father wanted to take her back to his hometown to visit her grandparents, just like before.

It's not like that either.

Chang Le looked at the family of three in front of her.

Her usually quiet and introverted father, holding his infant daughter and leading his wife by the hand, walked ahead, a picture of harmonious joy.

And her?

"..."

She didn't fit in.

-

The journey to her father's hometown was always the most painful for Chang Le.

She gets very carsick, especially on buses.

After getting on the bus, Dad and Aunt sat on the front side, while she sat in the back by the window, next to an uncle who was smoking.

The smell of smoke, the smell of leather, the stuffiness, and the bumpy ride made Chang Le's stomach churn, even though she was by the window.

Her father knows she gets carsick.

Her father always accompanied her before.

But now, Dad is holding my little sister, without looking back at her or asking her a single caring question.

Not a single word.

-

Chang Le was unusually quiet in his hometown.

When she saw everyone gathered around the swaddled baby.

When she was ignored and disregarded time and time again.

When she saw her older cousin, who was usually close to her, hug that younger sister.

When she dared not stay indoors, she would go to the vegetable garden outside every day to daydream, sing, and talk to herself.

She didn't understand why.

Has she changed?

-

Chang Le eventually couldn't stand the eerie atmosphere.

Five days later, she called her mother, asking her to come pick her up.

The next morning, Mom arrived.

Her father came to see her off, watching as her uncle's car got closer and closer.

Mom sat in the passenger seat, rolled down the window and exchanged pleasantries with Dad, but Dad remained cold and didn't say much.

Grandma also came and waited for Chang Le in the back seat.

"Why are you unhappy?" Grandma asked her softly.

Chang Le was taken aback and glanced at her mother, who was still exchanging pleasantries in front of her.

"How did Grandma know I was unhappy?" Chang Le asked, even though her face was as expressionless as ever.

"I knew you were unhappy the moment I saw you."

Chang Le: "..."

Yes.

She is not happy.

Grandma could tell.

Why can't Mom and Dad tell?
