I entered into a complete cold war with my younger sister.

Unlike before, where my sister would target me in various ways, now she would cry and throw tantrums whenever she saw me.

"Make him leave! Make him leave!"

My sister slammed the bowls and chopsticks onto the floor, no matter how our parents tried to coax her, it was useless.

"I won't listen! Unless you make him leave! I don't want to see Li Panmei!"

Dad sighed and said to me, "Panmei, go back to your room first."

I was about to leave with the mantou in my hand, but Mom called out to me.

"Don't go!"

She slammed her calloused hand heavily on the table, startling Dad three times.

"Panmei is also our child! When the family eats together, who should we care about?"

After speaking, she looked at my sister with a serious tone.

"You're getting older and should be sensible. No matter what, he's still your older brother. You should listen to him."

I didn't expect those words to come out of Mom's mouth, and my sister didn't expect it either.

She froze for a moment, then suddenly went crazy and screamed.

"Mom! You're being mean to me!"

She widened her eyes and looked at Mom in disbelief. "You're actually being mean to me for this jerk!"

I saw Mom's fist clench and relax, ready to explode at any moment, but she remained calm and reasoned with my sister.

"I won't listen!"

My sister stood up and, with an unexpected burst of strength, flipped the table over.

The food mixed with the soup was all overturned onto the floor, creating a mess.

Mom stood up with a "ceng" sound and looked at my sister, cursing, "Li Wang! If you don't want to eat, then get out!"

My sister, amidst her tantrum, started crying again. Tears and snot covered her face, no longer resembling the beloved little princess she used to be.

"I won't eat properly! None of you should eat properly either! We might as well not eat at all!"

My sister pointed her finger at me and said, "It's all because of you! Obviously, I'm the most beloved child of Mom and Dad. Why should you be in our house? Get out of my house!"

Smack!

Mom finally couldn't bear it any longer and slapped my sister in the face.

Dad trembled for a while, then went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Mom said, "This is your brother! You should apologize to your brother!"

"I don't want to! I don't want to!"

My sister's crying was heartbreaking, and she stubbornly said, "I don't have this brother! This family has me but not him, and he has me but not this family!"

Mom was trembling with anger.

She didn't understand how my sister could change overnight, not even listening to her words anymore.

"Mom! I almost drowned because of this beast!"

"I want to drown him too! I want him to pay with his life!"

My sister roared while disregarding everything and pounced on me.

I was sitting on a chair, and she suddenly knocked me down to the ground.

My head hit the hard ground, and my mind went blank.

My sister, straddling me, tightly squeezed my neck with both hands. At that moment, she truly wanted to kill me.

"You're insane!"

Mom rushed over to try to pull my sister away, but my sister somehow had such great strength that she couldn't be moved by Mom's pulling.

With the decreasing oxygen in my body, my vision gradually blurred, and my ears started ringing.

I heard Mom seemingly shouting loudly for Dad to come quickly.

"Ah!"

With Dad and Mom each pulling my sister, they actually dislocated her hand!

Freed from her grip, I quickly rolled away from my sister.

Mom turned around and shouted at me.

"Panmei, run away! Panmei, run away!"
