Late at night, please give me half a cigarette

Chapter 48

Zhang Yan's expression quickly recovered, and then she took a deep breath of the cigarette and breathed it out.

She looked at the misty white smoke, and said to me lightly: "The reason why they are happy to bully you is because you have no money, no status, no background, and no one will stand up for you. No one cares if you are injured, and no one cares whether what you did is right or wrong, whether you are living a good life, or whether you have dignity."

After speaking, Zhang Yan stared directly at my face through the layer of smoke, and continued: "They just feel that it is a kind of pleasure to trample people like you under their feet."

Seeing my dumbfounded expression, Zhang Yan took another puff of cigarette, looked at me with a sneer and said, "Tell me, what else do you have besides a cheap life?"

Zhang Yan's words are very explicit, but they are very realistic. Although I heard these words for the first time today, I completely agree with her words in my heart.

She was right, because I had nothing, so I became the object of their fun and teasing, and became the target of their bullying and trampling.

Just like today's incident, Wang Yuetong was the instigator of everything, but she got the sympathy of her classmates and the protection of her teacher. The reason here is not only that her weak appearance is very deceptive, but also because She has a rich dad and a wealthy family behind her.

If I were richer than her now, maybe today's ending would be different.

At this moment, for the first time, I had a strong desire for money.

"Sister Yan, tell me, how can we turn around?" I stared at Zhang Yan closely, although she was only four years older than me, but I felt that she seemed to know everything, and I admired her in my heart It's too bad.

"Turn over?" Zhang Yan raised her eyebrows at me amusedly, "If you win the lottery ticket, maybe you can."

"Is it okay to study? Get into university and then find a good job or something..." I immediately asked, Wen Ning told me these things, and I thought he would definitely not lie to me.

"Reading?" Zhang Yan thought for a while, then sighed and said, "If you insist on it, then it's a way out."

"Great! Then I'll study hard!" I clenched my fists excitedly, thinking that Wen Ning really didn't lie to me, although he didn't call the police to save me.

As for those annoying students, no matter how much they bully me from tomorrow on, I will ignore them and just read my books.

"He Qiu, don't think things too naively." Seeing me smile, Zhang Yan warned me coldly, "Are you rich? What do you use to pay tuition? Do you know what school you are studying? To put it bluntly It is called a noble school, and the tuition fee is many times that of ordinary schools!"

"..." As soon as the tuition fee was mentioned, the fighting spirit I had just ignited was extinguished in an instant, and my whole body was like an eggplant beaten by frost.

"The principal said that he can reduce or exempt my tuition fees, but I still need 2 yuan a year..." I lowered my head and murmured.

"That's why I said that there are no such easy things in this world." Zhang Yan said.

"He Qiu, if you want to earn tuition, you can dance with us!" The sister who was putting on makeup at the side said half-jokingly.

"Shut up!" For some reason, Zhang Yan's face sank, and she gave the elder sister a cold look, and the elder sister immediately closed her mouth wisely and did not speak.

"Dancing...is it very profitable?" I asked curiously. Although I don't know how to dance, if I study hard, maybe I can...

"He Qiu, I warn you, don't worry about this! You can't bear that kind of hardship." Zhang Yan said coldly, stood up, and put out half of the cigarette in her hand in the ashtray beside her. Turned around and left, ending our brief conversation.

I looked at Zhang Yan in puzzlement, and then at the other sisters, wondering what is so hard about suffering. I have never suffered from being trafficked since I was six years old.

But I have always felt that Zhang Yan is the kind of person who looks cold on the outside, but has a fire in his heart, so I think she may have a reason for not letting me dance with them.

Even if I don't dance, I still have to find a way to make money. There is always the matter of tuition fees, and the principal only gave me two weeks.

In two weeks, where can I earn 2 yuan!I hugged the quilt and thought in distress.

After much deliberation, I finally decided to ask the dean for help. After all, I have been living in a closed life, and I don't know anything about life in the city, let alone how to make money.

Enduring the pain in my abdomen, I went to the dean's office.

The dean's office is a big room, which is composed of two small rooms. The outer room is where she works, and the inner room is where she sleeps. Sometimes the dean takes Zhang Yan and the others out to dance. Late, will live here.

The dean was not surprised when she saw me come to her. She asked me to sit in the office, and then told me straight to the point that the principal of the school called her today and told her about my situation at school. Performance.

"He Qiu, I managed to win you this opportunity to study for you. The tuition fee will be halved for you. You have to cherish it. How can you talk back to the teacher and fight with your classmates? I didn't ask you to fight with your classmates. Do you get along well with your classmates? It’s only been a few days, and you’re going to mess with me.” The dean looked at me with a look of hatred.

"Dean, I know I was wrong." I lowered my head and whispered, "I will definitely study hard in the future."

"Well, that's good." The dean nodded, as if he suddenly remembered something and asked me, "By the way, why are you looking for me so late?"

"Dean, can you lend me some money? The principal said that if I don't pay the tuition within two weeks, I have to drop out." I looked at the dean pitifully and said.

"How much?" asked the dean.

"Twenty thousand."

"Oh, our orphanage's funds are too tight now, and we won't be able to spend so much money in a while." The dean said with a embarrassed look.

"Then, is there any way to make money? I am strong and can do anything!" I asked anxiously.

The dean looked at me and thought for a long time, and said to me: "Our orphanage opened a flower shop, so you can sell roses every day after school. I will give you 15 yuan a day, and you can sell them for a day. How about I give you another fifty cents?"

"Selling flowers? I've never done it..." I scratched my head and thought, although 15 yuan a day is a little less, but at least I can have some money in my hands. Besides, if I sell more, maybe I can make money a lot of money.

"Okay! I will sell it well." I solemnly stood up, bowed to the dean, and then returned to the dormitory with a happy mood.

When I went to the classroom the next day, I found that my desk was missing, and then I saw the students around me secretly laughing, saying what they deserved, how could such a person still have the face to go to school.

I took a deep breath and took a deep breath. I promised the dean yesterday, and I promised myself that from today onwards, I have only one purpose in coming to school, and that is to study.

As for the rest, I just ignore them.
