After the female supporting character in the quick transmigration series realized her mistakes

So no one at the school could see what she looked like.

But ever since Yao Ning was slapped for no reason at the school gate, it was as if Pandora's box had been opened, and endless insults came flooding towards Yao Ning like a tide.

From then on, Yao Ning was no longer the obscure bookworm, but the target of the hooligans.

If I got first place in any grade, they would drag me into an alley after school and beat me up; if I received any awards at school, such as notebooks or pencil cases, they would also become reasons to beat me up.

Yao Ning did try to fight back, but her feeble resistance was like throwing an egg against a rock; it was not only useless, but it also provoked a more violent retaliation.

If she doesn't fight back, she'll be met with merciless slaps and foul language, with sluts and bitches being her constant refrains; if she does fight back, she'll be subjected to humiliating acts such as having her fingers stepped on, kowtowing, and begging for forgiveness.

Yao Ning also sought help from her teacher, but the teacher was afraid of the big sister's background and could only choose to smooth things over.

At that time, Yao Ning was trapped in darkness and had no idea that she could call the police for help. Of course, calling the police might not have helped anyway.

Yao Ning's slight sense of superiority and self-esteem, which arose from her excellent grades, was ruthlessly trampled and destroyed by them.

Yao Ning was almost in despair. Suicide thoughts kept popping into her mind, but she was afraid of the pain and lost the courage to do it.

She could only study desperately, hoping to get into a good university and avenge the humiliation she suffered today.

And so, Yao Ning struggled on amidst the bullying until she entered her senior year of high school.

Perhaps their parents realized that they needed to discipline their children in their senior year of high school, so those kids behaved much better for the time being.

However, Yao Ning still suffers bullying even when she gets first place in the exam.

So she chose to stop striving for first place, but this negatively impacted her grades. As a result, Yao Ning failed the college entrance exam and only got into a third-rate university.

Her parents had high expectations for her, but at the most crucial moment, she suffered a major setback in the college entrance examination. Her parents suspected that she was having an early romance at school and questioned her in various ways. Yao Ning told them that she was being bullied by her classmates at school, and they fell silent.

Yao Ning understood, after all, she lacked confidence.

Her promising future was completely ruined.

At that moment, Yao Ning knew that all her beautiful dreams would never come true.

Yao Ning seemed to have lost all her energy and spirit. Her life at university was shrouded in dark clouds, with the trauma of high school following her like a shadow, severely affecting her enthusiasm for learning.

She didn't have any close classmates or friends. In other people's eyes, she was an introverted, aloof, and unpresentable person, not worth getting close to. Yao Ning also felt that she wasn't worth it.

She deliberately avoided all social activities, as if imprisoning herself in a world isolated from the outside world.

My only close friend is the older sister I met when I was working in a factory right after graduating from university.

When Yao Ning first graduated from university and started working in the factory, she was completely clueless about everything. It was her who patiently taught her step by step, which is why Yao Ning developed a bit of dependence on her.

After getting to know her better, I met her family and friends, who were all very nice people. Gradually, I opened up to them as well.

After she returned home and got married, she stopped working outside.

Yao Ning joined a newly opened processing plant with only about 20 employees. Yao Ning had a bit of social anxiety, so this kind of factory was perfect for her. Since there were only two people working in the office at the time, Yao Ning stayed at the factory to work as an accountant.

As the factory expanded and the workforce grew, the accounting position needed more specialized talent, so she switched to cashier work, a job she held for over ten years.

Over the course of ten years, contact with my family was intermittent. The only connection I maintained with my family was by consistently sending money home.

After his younger brother graduated from junior college, he went back home once for his wedding. After that, he didn't send any money. His reason was that his younger brother was already married and working, and he had already taken over the Chen family's household responsibilities, so he didn't need a daughter anymore.

She only sent money and gifts during holidays. Although her parents were angry, they didn't know Yao Ning's detailed address, so they let it go. That was her only connection with her family.

When my younger brother bought a house, I lent him half of my savings from the past ten years, and I even insisted that he write an IOU. Neither my brother nor his wife had any objections.

The parents, however, believed that siblings are family and should help each other. Why should they have to borrow money to buy a house?

Yao Ning had another unpleasant argument with her parents over the IOU.

Because of this incident, my younger brother's house doesn't have a room of his own. My parents even said that since I'm a girl, I'll get married sooner or later.

From then on, Yao Ning never returned home again, but after returning home just once, she was reborn.

Yao Ning has now been reborn two years after graduating from university, in 2001.

That year, her younger brother was still in junior high school, so she sent half of her salary home and didn't save much money.

I lived in the dormitory for the two years I worked after graduation, and this house is one I just rented.

Yao Ning was happy to have her own private space and planned to go to the market to buy groceries and cook a nice meal to celebrate. However, she felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, but she didn't take it seriously. She thought that minor illnesses and pains were normal and that she could just bear it.

Unfortunately, she had bad luck and fainted from stomach cramps when she walked down the street. Yan Zhiming, who happened to be passing by, took her to the hospital. Yao Ning remembered that although she also had stomach problems in her previous life, it never reached the point of fainting!

……

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Yao Ning's face. She stretched and glanced at the time; it was only a little past seven.

Yao Ning jumped out of bed, washed up, and called her boss to ask for leave.

Then, she went into the kitchen, cooked a bowl of noodles, and fried an egg. While eating breakfast, she looked around her room.

The room she rented was a single room of about 30 square meters, with a kitchen and a bathroom, but they were outside the room, so the smells wouldn't mix with the smells when she was cooking.

The room contained only a 1.5-meter single bed, a small wardrobe, and a desk. The lack of items made the room feel particularly spacious, which Yao Ning found quite satisfactory.

Yao Ning seemed to have thought of something. She reached for her phone on the bed, hesitated for a moment, and then decided to send a text message to the uncle from yesterday to repay the favor she owed him. Otherwise, she would feel guilty and feel relieved once she repaid the favor.

Yao Ning: {Uncle, good morning! Are you free today? I said I wanted to thank you and the driver yesterday, so if you have time, I'd like to treat you to a meal? Of course, if you don't have time, we can always make time another time!}

After sending the text message, Yao Ning waited for a while, but still hadn't received a reply. Having no other option, she decided to start cleaning and tidying up the room.

We waited until around 8:30 before the news finally arrived.

Uncle: {No need to be so polite, I just happened to see it, it was nothing.}

Yao Ning: {If I don't repay this favor, I'll always feel guilty and indebted to you.}

{Let's do it tonight then. I'm free tonight, so we don't need to eat out. You just need to cook a few simple home-style dishes. Can you cook?}

Yao Ning looked at his text message and wondered if this was a bad idea. After all, she was a single woman, and she was letting two men into her home. What if she encountered any danger?

However, upon further reflection, although he did not recognize the car the man was riding in, he could tell from its appearance that it was expensive. He figured the man wouldn't be after anything from him.

So I replied to the text message: {I can cook, but my culinary skills aren't very good. Wouldn't that be unfair to you?}

Uncle: {It's alright, it's about the friendship. If you really invited me to a restaurant, wouldn't that be bribery?}

{Oh! Okay, then what time can you come tonight so I can prepare in advance.}

{Around seven o'clock.}

{Okay, I won't bother you any longer.}
