Chapter 32 Going Home

There was still a week before the official start of classes, and Huang Chiyao decided to go back home. Firstly, she had promised her mother, and secondly, she had to think about how to convince her parents that she wanted to stay there to work after graduation.

After a two-hour drive, she finally returned to the home where she had lived for almost twenty years.

The Spring Festival couplets that were changed before the New Year have faded a little after half a year of exposure to the sun, but the ink on the big characters is still very clear.

Black is more difficult to eliminate than red.

The first floors of her neighbors on both sides all have their own shops, either running small businesses or restaurants, but the first floor of her house is empty, neither rented out nor used as a shop.

But this was her father's idea. He was busy with his work and didn't want her mother to be in the spotlight, and he didn't want other people to live in his house, so the first floor was vacant all year round.

Many people thought that she lived in the countryside, with farmland and vegetable fields outside the door, and could hear roosters crowing in the morning and insects chirping at night.

She certainly was when she was very young.

But not long after her brother was born, the family moved to the town. The town was basically made up of small buildings of about five floors, with all kinds of shops, restaurants and supermarkets, but no farmland or vegetable fields, and even slightly dense groves could only be seen in the suburbs.

She would like to live in the countryside.

In the afternoon, people in the town had just finished their meals and were resting. The whole street was deserted. When one of the neighbors heard the sound of Huang Chiyao opening the door, she came out to see what was going on. When she saw Huang Chiyao, she was stunned at first, and then she shouted in surprise.

"Oh, it's Yaoyao! Yaoyao is back!"

"Yes, has Auntie eaten yet?"

"Eat, eat!"

Huang Chiyao exchanged a few words with her aunt and was about to step into the house when she saw her father rushing downstairs and angrily throwing a stack of things at her.

Huang Chiyao was unable to react in time and was so scared that he quickly stepped back.

"You still have the nerve to go home!"

When the neighbor heard the noise, she hurried over and supported Huang Chiyao.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Auntie patted Huang Chiyao's back and advised her father, "Guojian, why are you so angry? Can't you just talk it out nicely?"

Huang Guojian ignored him and pointed at Huang Chiyao and shouted angrily: "Come in!"

Huang Chiyao came to his senses, shook his head to the neighbor aunt, "I'm fine," and went into the house.

"Squeak-"

The door closed, and as the last ray of sunlight was blocked outside, she fell into darkness.

The first floor was on a low floor and had insufficient daylight, so it was completely dependent on the lights. The lights were not on at this time, and only the faint light from the window came in, spreading across the empty hall. Only a pile of pale white paper on the ground was unusually conspicuous.

"Pick up the things on the ground and go upstairs!"

Huang Chiyao silently picked up the papers on the ground one by one, until she went up to the third floor where she usually worked. When there was light, she could see clearly what had been thrown at her face.

It is a collection of news related to her report to the police more than two months ago.

“…Who gave it to you?”

Huang Chiyao was silent for a long time before she asked her father in a hoarse voice. However, Huang Guojian became even more impatient when he heard her question.

"How should I know? That would only be sent to your home by someone who knows you!"

"My name wasn't mentioned in the news. How did you know that the intern was me?"

"If you can do it, don't be afraid of others knowing it!"

"Dad!" Huang Chiyao raised his head abruptly when he heard this and looked at Huang Guojian in disbelief, "I am the one being bullied!"

"Huang Chiyao!" Huang Guojian scolded, and after seeing his daughter's eyes filled with tears, he sighed again. "Didn't Dad teach you to be kind to others, to be generous, and not to be petty? It's normal for colleagues to have some unhappiness. It's a small matter that makes you feel bad, isn't it? Can't we have a meal together and communicate well, can't it be solved? You didn't reflect on whether you did anything wrong first, but directly complained to others, which is outrageous, and you even called the police! Is this how people should behave? Is the workplace so trifling?"

Huang Guojian became excited again, "I haven't asked you about your internship yet. How many bad things have you done without telling your family? Huang Chiyao, do you really care about your father?"

Huang Chiyao felt very tired.

Her father's words were like wet tissues thrown at her face, making her feel increasingly breathless and almost suffocated.

"Dad, do you really think your daughter's bad mood is a small matter?"

"Nonsense, does the whole world have to accommodate you? Are you the only one in the world who is in a bad mood?"

"Heh." Huang Chiyao couldn't help but smile bitterly. "No wonder you don't like snow peas."

"What snow peas?" Huang Guojian was confused by his daughter's words. "What are you talking about?"

When Huang Chiyao heard his father's words, he felt so overwhelmed that he couldn't say anything.

so funny.

I never expected that this indelible scar in my heart would be forgotten so easily by my father.

Snow pea is the first pet that Huang Chiyao has raised in her life, and also the only pet she has raised so far.

When Huang Chiyao was young, she followed her mother to live with her grandparents for a period of time. Her younger brother was not born at that time, and her grandparents doted on her very much.

She especially liked playing in the fields and countryside over there, because she could find many small animals that she would never see in her own fields. So she jumped up and down all day long, climbed under the fruit trees and in the farmland, and had a lot of fun every day.

Once, she followed her grandmother to the fields and accidentally caught a field mouse, a small but chubby one with round eyes and ears, cuter than any field mouse she had ever seen. She loved the field mouse so much that she took it home and named it "Dutch Bean".

Huang Chi Yao placed the snow beans next to the wheat field at her grandfather's house for almost three months. When she was about to leave her grandfather's house to go back home, she was reluctant to leave, so she decided to take the snow beans home to raise. Her mother reluctantly agreed after her begging.

But just when Huang Chiyao brought the snow peas home, her father scolded her angrily and wanted to throw it out, saying that mice were very dirty and would steal food and make the whole family sick. Huang Chiyao begged for a long time and even promised not to keep the snow peas at home, but just put them in a cage behind the house, but her father did not give in and still rejected her very firmly.

Huang Chiyao had no choice but to put the snow peas into a small cage and secretly hide it in the storage room on the roof. He also prepared food and water for fear that the snow peas would starve.

"Don't be afraid, Snow Bean. When I grow up, I will buy a big house and bring you there so we can live together!"

At such a young age, Huang Chiyao didn't know that the lifespan of a vole was only one or two years, and Snow Pea couldn't wait for her to grow up and buy a big house.

All she knew was that she wanted Snow Pea to be with her forever.

However, when Huang Chiyao wanted to go to the roof to look for the snow peas the next day, he found that it was gone, and even the small cage was nowhere to be found.
