Su Liya stood like her feet was rooted into the ground as Zhu Feifei's words ran through her mind
"Do you think you can win against me? You? An unwanted little thing? You are worthless, even your parents didn't want you. Did you like the beautiful day you spend in the palace with General Lu, do you want to experience that again. Come close to my husband and I will arrange another special day for you but this time with your old flame Xu Jingting! Dirty little bitch"
Su Liya suddenly saw drawn into the most painful memory from her childhood, she was drawn to that day at the playground when she was 8 years old.
***
Ten years ago at a large playground of a special elementary school.
A much younger Su Liya dressed in dark blue and white track uniform belonging to District 5 elementary school B city, sat on a wooden bench facing the offices on the ground floor facing the school playground.
Today was the school's open day, Su Liya watched as her classmates rushed into their parent's hands, full of smiles. The open day was held to allow parents the chance to check n their child's progress.
Minutes before the open day began, their class teacher Miss Hu send them all out to the playground. The other kids got along quite well and played with each other while ignoring the quiet skinny girl with pigtails who sat by the side.
Su Liya was very shy and quiet most of the time, it was easy to overlook kids like that. Which was what the young Su Liya wanted, although many would argue that it was a bad idea to be invincible to everyone.
When you are the only charity student in your class who didn't have parents to buy you the latest clothes and has to perform at various charity events to get sponsors, you start to dislike bring the centre of attention.
Kids were more active at this age, so after staying a few minutes with their parents, they were sent back to the playground to give the parents and Miss Hu space to talk. The scrawny girl with the pigtails was still seated on the bench when they returned to the playground.
A few of the kids looked at her blank expression and snickered. Among the children was Cai Chuan, the son of the chairman of the school PTA and the class bully. Like every bully out there Cai Chuan preyed on the weak, which unfortunately was Su Liya.
Cai Chuan was a plump, oily faced taller boy with chubby cheeks plastered with freckles. He had quite the image and because of his mother's position on the PTA board, got away with everything he did.
When a shadow fell upon her, Su Liya let out a breath and prepared her mind for his salty remarks about her clothes and attitude. She sat straight, silently waiting for his words when a meaty hand appeared in front of her knocked her forehead.
"Hey, dummy! Why are you still out here, where are your parents? She pushed up her head roughly when she failed to respond "Why are you keeping quiet! You keep pretending like you can't talk when I always see you sing on stages at the charity events the school board hosts.
"I didn't understand why you had to perform constantly, so I asked my mother and she said it was because you were begging for money. I heard that your parents doesn't want you and left you outside.
"I guess that like they must have gotten sick of your blank expression. Since you only talk when you are begging for money, why don't you beg me to let you go? If you do, I will give you the money my mum gave me for ice cream"
Su Liya didn't respond, she just looked up at him silently, which made Cai Chuan angrier, he pushed her down from the chair "don't ignore me dumb, or I will tell my mother not to give you any more money" he glared at her.
The playground although filled with sand had a few stones, her skin was scratched out as she fell. It hurt so much but Su Liya didn't let it show. That would just make Cai Chuan hurt her more, if she stayed calm after some time he would get tired and let her go.
When he didn't get the desired reaction, as usual, he kicked her on her foot "you are just a dirty little begged, no wonder no one wants you" he hissed and joined the rest of his little crew of bully's to play.
When he wasn't paying her any attention again, Su Liya stood carefully. She dusted her clothes and rushed to the nurse's room to get her wound cleaned.
******
Now fast forward to the present and she once again comes across another bully, this time names Zhu Fenfang but unlike Cai Chuan who attacked her head-on, Zhu Fenfang liked to borrow other people's hands.
Su Liya stood at a sport, with a troubled expression as she tried to make sense of everything. She found herself thinking
"Why on earth Zhu Fenfang would slander her like this. Was it because of those hurtful words she said back then? Did that warrant an action like this?"
No matter how she thought of this, nothing could justify being treated this way. Zhu Feifei make have pulled the trigger but Zhu Fenfang made her the target. All for what? Because she hurt her precious ego? No these women were monsters.
They had no bottom line, Zhu Fenfang made her a target for Zhu Feifei because she didn't want to look bad or dirty her hand with that mess. She knew her sister's temper and suspected his everything could turn out.
Yet she still egged her on, someone like that didn't deserve to be happy, none of them did. They violated her body and free will all because they could. No one deserved to be treated this way no matter what.
While she went through the emotional turmoil, her maid rushed to her. They rushed over after the sixth princess consort left with her maid. In the capital the maids always had the best information on everyone, Rong Rong and Baozhai heard a lot of colourful things about the sixth princess consort.
They were uneasy leaving their madam alone with her but since they were sent out they could only stand close by and wait. They stood at the side with their hearts beating heavily until the sixth princess consort walked out. However, they couldn't let out a breath of relief because the princess consort left with a smile.
Their heart sank as soon as they saw her smile, Rong Rong and Baozhai glanced at each other and run forward. Their madam stood still while looking into a distance.
"Your Highness, Your Highness!"
"How are you? Your Highness!"
They called her a few times but didn't receive any answer. Princess Ping looked to be in deep thoughts, nothing they did drew her away from her thoughts. Rong Rong shook her hair in frustration before she grabbed Su Liya's arm and shook it a few times.
Suddenly, the previously unresponsive Su Liya pulled out her hands from Rong Rong's firm hold and looked from Rong Rong to Baozhai then shook her head and asked
"what would you do if you found out someone deliberately tried to hurt you for something you didn't do? What if you know what the person wants and have a way of preventing her from getting it but doing that would be very risky. Would you still do that?"
Su Liya didn't speak to anyone, in particular, so the questions were left in the air. Rong Rong and Baozhai communicated silently,
"hey answer her, you are the oldest"
"No! I don't know why she is asking questions like this. It could be a trap"
"She has been quiet for some time, she might be waiting for an answer. Just answer her"
"You_ Rong Rong! why does it have to be me"
"Because you are the oldest, use your seniority for something other than given orders and acting so smart"
"....."
Baozhai glared at Rong Rong silently for a few seconds before facing Su Liya. She breathed in and out to calm her troubled heart then replied "I don't know how to answer thi_"
She was interrupted by Su Liya "just answer honestly!"
Baozhai let out a breath and continued "since she tried to hurt me once, she could do it again. I wouldn't allow her to do so".
Su Liya didn't respond when she was done speaking and just looked ahead. Just as Baozhai started to worry, she replied
"that is what I thought too. There are consequences to one's actions, she has to pay for the part she played in causing me pain. They both do, looks like I will have to become a bad guy in this story. Since staying low key isn't possible anymore"
Su Liya looked up at the sky and smiled "let's go".
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Su Liya stood like her feet was rooted into the ground as Zhu Feifei's words ran through her mind
"Do you think you can win against me? You? An unwanted little thing? You are worthless, even your parents didn't want you. Did you like the beautiful day you spend in the palace with General Lu, do you want to experience that again.
