Fang Tian came to me again.

She called me and invited me to her house for dinner.

She said it had been a long time since we last met and that she missed me.

She chattered on, reminiscing about our school days, playing the emotional card.

All of this was what she had told me in the previous life when she tried to deceive me into going to her house after giving birth to a deformed child and being driven away by Wu Cheng and the others.

I never expected to hear it again in this life.

History repeats itself.

This time, she still didn't want to let me go.

"Tian Tian, do you really want me to come?"

I interrupted her, asking meaningfully.

She fell silent for a while before replying, "Nian Nian, I really miss you. Will you come and accompany me, please?"

"Sure."

A smile tugged at the corner of my mouth.

"I'll come and keep you company."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you."

Upon hearing that I was coming, Fang Tian's voice became cheerful, full of anticipation.

How nice.

I was also filled with anticipation.

On the day of the dinner, I brought Fang Tian's parents along.

No matter how ugly things got, they were still her biological parents.

After hearing that Fang Tian had a miscarriage after being beaten in the hospital, Fang's father and mother still came, looking as if they had aged several decades, with white hair covering their heads.

When we arrived at Wu Cheng's house, Fang Tian greeted us with a smile.

Although she had applied makeup, I could still see her exhaustion.

On such a hot day, she was dressed in long sleeves and pants, covering herself up tightly.

I could tell right away that she must have been beaten by Wu Cheng and Liu Mei.

These two often beat her, with no regard for severity.

In the previous life, I had tried to advise her.

She told me that hitting was a form of endearment, that hitting her meant they loved her.

I couldn't persuade her, so I could only save evidence of her being beaten, waiting for the day she would wake up and realize, using it as evidence.

Never did I expect that I would end up at the bottom of them.

The one getting beaten every day became me.

"Nian Nian."

Fang Tian warmly hugged my arm as if she had seen a savior.

I pushed her hand away, moving back, and her parents appeared abruptly in front of her.

Seeing her parents, she became flustered.

"Dad, Mom, why are you here?"

Fang's father and mother looked at her haggard appearance, their faces filled with sorrow.

"Be obedient, come back with us!"

Fang Tian avoided their reaching hands, shaking her head, "I'm not going back!"

"Tian Tian, you should go back."

I insincerely advised her.

"Your parents are doing this for your own good. Look at how haggard you are now, you look like a skeleton. It pains me to see you like this, not to mention your parents."

"Yes, dear, come back with us."

While pleading, Fang's mother tried to pull her.

"Get lost!"

Fang Tian sidestepped and pushed Fang's mother away.

Fang's mother staggered back, almost falling if Fang's father hadn't supported her. With Fang's mother's current state, a fall could lead to a serious illness.

"Fang Tian! Have you gone mad!"

Fang's father roared.

Fang Tian was momentarily stunned by the shouting, then pushed me and her parents out as if possessed.

"Get out! All of you, get out!"

Before we could say a word, the door slammed shut with a bang.

"Tian Tian, Tian Tian!"

Fang's mother knocked on the door, tears streaming down her face.

Fang's father supported her, tears flowing freely.

"What a calamity, truly!"

Watching this scene before me, I was somewhat surprised yet felt it was within the realm of expectations.

Fang Tian had always been ruthless towards those close to her.

Except for her useless husband, Wu Cheng.

Ha!

I chuckled coldly, offered a few words of comfort to Fang's parents, and then turned and left.

This time, Fang Tian was likely to end up alienated from everyone.

Close
