Don't mess with the little apprentice sister! She is greedy and immoral

"Why give up? Don't give up, okay?"

The little girl back then has grown into a graceful young lady.

She reached out and hugged Qin Zhen, her eyes red: "Zhen Zhen, the speed at which we have saved money over the years cannot keep up with the rising prices. Going to high school not only requires tuition, but also living expenses, dormitory fees, and various other expenses. For two people, it is too difficult to complete three years of high school."

"I can think of another way to get the money. I can work during my breaks. If that doesn't work, I can ask someone to borrow some money. We..."

“But I don’t want to read it.”

The girl's voice was trembling: "You know, my grades are not good. Even if I study in high school for three years, I can't get into college."

"But……"

"Besides, who says that studying is the only way out?"

The girl hugged Qin Zhen and didn't let her look at her red eyes, which were already sparkling with crystal tears.

Her voice sounded so cheerful, as if there was no haze or regret.

"Zhenzhen, I want to leave the orphanage."

"Where are you going!? I'm going with you..."

"That won't work. The volunteer sister who came to help us before opened a factory at home. A few days ago, she invited me to work there. There is only one vacancy, so don't fight with me."

"But……"

"Oh, don't say but. You know that sister too. She's a very nice person. She said she would take care of me if I went there. Besides, their factory has dormitories and a cafeteria. I can save every penny I earn there."

Qin Zhen didn't say anything. She could feel her little friend trembling constantly.

Even if it sounds easy, she is still unwilling to accept it, right?

Not reconciled.

But she still made the decision.

How could she persuade him? She couldn't change her decision.

That day, Qin Zhen just let her little friend hold her, and the two of them stood there from noon until sunset.

It was summer, but Qin Zhen felt very cold.

"Zhenzhen, you have such good grades. You must help me achieve what I haven't done. When you go to college, I want to visit your school."

The girl left.

When Qin Zhen fell asleep, he quietly found the director, left the welfare home and went to the factory.

Sixteen years old is the age when children in an orphanage can choose to leave.

This was the note she wrote to Qin Zhen before she left.

Qin Zhen treasured the note and put it in her pencil case.

On the day when the high school entrance examination results came out, Qin Zhen was admitted to a key provincial high school.

When the director of the welfare home felt regretful that he had no money to support Qin Zhen's studies, the girl asked someone to bring back an envelope.

In the envelope was a bank card and a second-hand mobile phone.

"She asked me to tell you to focus on your studies and not to worry about money. She will work hard to save money and make sure you eat well and sleep well."

Qin Zhen took the phone, which contained only a unique number.

It's the girl's number.

The phone is very old, from an unfamiliar brand, and even the model is a bit old.

However, Qin Zhen cherishes it very much.

Because, through it, she can reconnect with her most important sister.

Girls are very busy. After Qin Zhen entered junior high school, her cell phones were taken away by her teachers for safekeeping and were only given to them on weekends.

So, she can only talk to her friends every weekend.

But the girl often worked overtime on weekends and even took a part-time job, so her time to talk to Qin Zhen was very limited.

Every time we talked on the phone, she always said, "You should eat well and sleep well."

She never asked Qin Zhen to study hard because she didn't want to put such pressure on her over and over again.

Qin Zhen knew.

So, she worked harder.

In order to concentrate on her studies, she lived on campus and asked her teacher to help her apply for a part-time job. She also went to the school cafeteria to help serve meals at noon.

This is a very prestigious job, so many students who work and study are reluctant to do it, and the salary is therefore slightly higher.

Qin Zhen was not afraid of losing face. She wore the apron given by her aunt, a hat and gloves and went to the window display.

Her classmates would indeed be surprised to see her and would whisper about her behind her back, but Qin Zhen seemed to be oblivious to those strange looks.

The years of isolation in the welfare home had already made her develop a big heart.

The aunties in the cafeteria were very caring towards her. When she finished getting her meal and went to get her own lunch box for the staff meal, the aunties' hands, which were very good at shaking off flesh, never shook.

Sometimes, Qin Zhen would even find chicken legs secretly hidden for her by the aunts under her rice.

Seeing that she was embarrassed, the aunts just said, "Little girl, you should eat more. You are still growing, so you should eat well."

The stares and discussions from the classmates gradually subsided over time.

No one laughed at Qin Zhen anymore.

Winter is coming soon.

In order not to disturb her roommates, Qin Zhen read every night under the dim light of the balcony of the residential building opposite.

Because it was so cold and she was growing so fast, she could no longer wear her old cotton clothes.

She was reluctant to spend money on new clothes and could only pace quietly in the corridor.

"Hello, Qin Zhen."

At this moment, the door of the dormitory was opened, and the head of the dormitory handed over one of his down jackets: "Don't catch a cold."

As if she was afraid that Qin Zhen would refuse, and afraid of hurting Qin Zhen's self-esteem, she snorted immediately: "I just think it would be bad if you caught a cold and infected us."

"Thank you."

"...Don't watch too late, go to bed early."

"Ah."

Qin Zhen was not good at dealing with other people's kindness, and she didn't know if her reaction was a little too cold.

Although she has excellent academic performance, she is very clumsy in interpersonal relationships.

She put on the clean, light down jacket and looked at the lamp on the balcony opposite.

That lamp was used to illuminate the room when she read in the corridor every night.

At first, it was dim.

But suddenly one day, it became very bright and was never turned off every night.

She tried her best to grow, like a weed trying to absorb nutrients from the soil.

And success will never disappoint those who work hard.

When Qin Zhen was eighteen years old, she was admitted to one of the best universities in the capital.

She took the acceptance letter and went to find her best friend.

She wanted to fulfill her promise and take her to the capital, to see their university and to see the wider world.

However, when she happily proposed this matter, the girl refused.

"Zhenzhen, I won't go to the capital."

"why?"

"My current job is pretty good, and we have been in Yaskawa for so many years, I don't want to leave."

"I want to hear the truth."

"That's the truth."

"Then why can't you look me in the eyes?"
