Thanks to Mr. Zhang who helped me get a bank card, my current funds should be enough for me to study in the city until I graduate from university.

I rented a small room around the school, studying while thinking in my spare time.

How can I make them pay!

The beatings and scolding from both lives are vividly in my mind, along with those painful memories.

Before, I dared not hate them because they were my parents.

But they are not parents; they are buyers, and even more, they are the sellers who pushed me into the abyss.

How could I possibly not hate them!

All the remaining holidays were spent fighting my own emotions.

My rational mind told me that I should calm down and review well, as the college entrance exam is my best way out of here.

But my emotions told me that I should wipe out both the buyers and sellers of my two lives!

The chaotic battle continued until the start of the new semester.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the semester began, I encountered something even more troublesome.

During last term's final and the beginning of the winter holiday, I helped someone from the neighboring class in a one-on-one tutoring session to overtake them. That person, Li Shiqing, came to find me.

"Zhang Hong, Mr. Zhang, can you... continue to tutor me?"

Li Shiqing, a middle to lower-ranked student in the class, comes from a good family, a bit of a loafer, and thanks to his family's significant investment in his tutoring, he has managed to hang in there; otherwise, he would have struggled in our class...

But he never liked studying.

It's unlikely that there will be red rain falling from the sky.

Most importantly, he annoys me.

As I was about to refuse, Li Shiqing interrupted me.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse. I'm not asking you to help me for free."

He immediately mentioned a number I couldn't refuse.

Well... I'm sorry, I gave in.

I didn't want to agree, but the amount he offered was indeed too much!
