Quick Transmigration: Kitten's Healing Handbook - Chapter 70

Chapter 70: Light In The Cracks 3

Ling Sheng waited until the class bell rang before taking the notes from Lin Yao’s hand: “Get lost. ”

Ling Sheng saw Lin Yao get up and turn to return to her seat. He stuck out his foot and tripped her.

Lin Yao’s legs were already weak from kneeling for almost twenty minutes. Tripped like that, she fell to the ground with a loud thud. Strangely, the pain seemed to lessen the suffocating anguish caused by her classmates’ laughter.

Ling Sheng’s cruel voice came: “Oh, why are you on the ground? Don’t try to blackmail me, I didn’t touch you. The classmates can all testify. ”

“Yeah! Yeah! Lin Yao wouldn’t be doing this to get Young Master Ling’s attention, would she? ”

“Oh my, the green tea level of today’s girls is so low. With such a little trick, she wants to seduce Young Master Ling? ”

“Who would blame her, being a poor good student? Looking so pitifully bullied, maybe she secretly hopes Young Master Ling sees her and gives her ten or twenty kuai. ”

“You wouldn’t guess this good student is actually a J. ”

Lin Yao struggled to get up. Fortunately, she had always been very diligent in her cleaning duties. Even though she had just fallen, her school uniform, washed just last night, was not very dirty.

Although the class bell had already rung, when the teacher entered the classroom, Lin Yao was already back in her seat. Perhaps she had seen the commotion in the class and, wanting to avoid trouble, pretended to be late and didn’t see anything…

Lin Yao thought that after giving away her notes and suffering so much yesterday, today’s fall should end her misery. Returning to the dormitory after school, she saw her bed and desk piled high with garbage. On the desk were many conspicuous notes with white backgrounds and red letters.

“Garbage, alive is a waste of air! ”

“Go die! ”

“Go die! ”

“Go die! ”

Basically, it was just these three words…

She had received many similar notes before. She remembered that at that time, she had silently thrown them away. But this time, looking at these three words, she seemed to waver, because living was so tiring…

Lin Yao resisted the urge to cry, skillfully picking up a garbage bag and collecting the garbage and notes from her bed and desk before throwing them away.

Xu Qiuran watched this without doing anything more. After all, the exams were coming soon, and not only Ling Sheng wanted Lin Yao’s notes, she did too.

When Lin Yao returned after throwing away the trash, she saw Xu Qiuran sitting at her desk with a chair. Lin Yao instinctively took a step back, but another roommate had already closed the door.

Xu Qiuran smiled sweetly, but in Lin Yao’s eyes, she was as terrifying as an evil spirit.

“Good student, you shared your notes with Ling Sheng, shouldn’t you also share them with our dorm mates? ”

Lin Yao dared not resist. She opened her cabinet where she kept her personal belongings and gave them the notes.

Actually, there wasn’t anything special in the cabinet, just textbooks and study supplies. But these were the only things she cared about at school.

Xu Qiuran took a special look at the contents of Lin Yao’s cabinet, feeling very disdainful. “Such a poor thing,” she thought. “Such worn-out stationery and books, and she still locks them up as treasures. ”

After taking the notes, Xu Qiuran let Lin Yao be for now.

It must be said that Lin Yao’s notes were indeed useful. Xu Qiuran, who had originally been in the middle of the grade, now made it into the top fifty. But if Lin Yao’s notes were even more useful and helped her get into the top ten, she would get 5,000 kuai in allowance!

Lin Yao can get first place, with her study notes, why can’t she get into the top ten? It must be that Lin Yao is still hiding study materials they don’t know about!

The more Xu Qiuran thought about it, the more she felt there was something fishy. She and Ling Sheng, who had also skipped the opening ceremony, conspired together, and rumors of Lin Yao cheating on the exam began to spread among the students.

The invigilator specifically checked the examination hall surveillance footage frame by frame, as well as the surveillance footage of the exam paper storage area. They did find some cheating students, who were listed on the school’s disciplinary notice. Lin Yao was not among them.

After all, only the teachers who took money from the Ling family, and only the teachers from his class, but the invigilators are usually not teachers from their own class. In this respect, they are still fair.

But no matter what the teachers thought, it couldn’t change the fact that Lin Yao was called a cheating dog by her classmates, and would be thrown paper balls or even stones at when walking. Because of the rumors of her cheating, a group of students who hadn’t been caught cheating were also implicated, having their exam results canceled, receiving disciplinary action, and having their parents called.

Because of this incident, Lin Yao not only had to be bullied by her classmates, but also had to endure the malice of other students who were implicated.

The “borrowed” notebook was not returned, so Lin Yao could only buy some more at the school’s stationery store. She skipped the beautifully designed ones and bought ten of the most plain exercise books to use as notebooks, costing three yuan in total.

After paying for the exercise books, Lin Yao should have returned to the dormitory, but her gaze uncontrollably fell on a utility knife, and she bought it on impulse.

Once again, she cleaned up the garbage and notes from her bed and desk. The day-after-day bullying seemed endless, and Lin Yao felt like she was about to collapse.

Lately, she had been having trouble sleeping, and even in her dreams, there was even more terrible bullying and harm. Waking up was even more painful than not sleeping.

Since she couldn’t sleep, Lin Yao, after Xu Qiuran and the others had fallen asleep, hid in the toilet and studied by the faint light of her mobile phone. It gave her a long-lost sense of peace.

But this nighttime peace and daytime pain were like two extremes, tearing at her last shred of sanity.

That night, after Xu Qiuran and the others had gone to sleep, Lin Yao didn’t bring her textbook, but instead took the utility knife into the toilet.

The light from her phone was like the only light she could get, illuminating only a small area on the washbasin. But in the darkness, this small light wasn’t enough…

The moment the blade was extended, the light shone on it, creating a halo, like the only light she could grasp.

When the blade pressed against her skin, it was unexpectedly dull, like a rusty zipper, or torn burlap being cut. Only when the bl00d seeped out did she feel a moment of stinging pain. But the unprecedented release made her seem to become addicted to this feeling. The second cut was deeper than the first, and beads of bl00d rolled down her forearm into the washbasin.

The release brought by the pain was covered by the sight of bl00d, causing her to fall back into the panic of being bullied. The utility knife slipped from her hand and fell into the washbasin with a sharp clang, like the sound of the crystal music box her father gave her for her birthday being snatched and smashed by her brother that year.

She seemed to hear her mother’s scolding and her brother’s crying again. Only her father protected her behind him, promising to buy her a new gift. But she didn’t understand, she hadn’t done anything wrong…

And her father had been working on projects abroad for the past two years. She didn’t know if she could still wait for her salvation.
