The man got up and spat on the ground, then lifted his foot and ground it against my back. I felt a sharp pain in my back, as if it were about to break.

"I... "Ahem …" I was lying on my stomach in the snow, my face buried in it, my back trampled and almost suffocated.

My feet moved away from my back, and I gasped for breath.

"Stupid girl, do you still want to have a taste of what happened just now?!"

I was scared to the point that tears were flowing down my face, but at this crucial moment, a familiar voice sounded from the empty street.

"Stop, do you want to try the taste of A60?"

I looked up at the sound. Yue Chen stood in the snow with his black clothes, seeming incompatible with the white world.

I wanted to tell him to get out of here, but there was nothing I could do. There was no sound coming from my throat.

"Where did this little brat come from? How dare he use a toy gun to scare your father?"

The two men set their sights on Yue Chen. My heart hung in the air at this moment.

Yue Chen, run! It's dangerous here!

"Toy gun? When did you get blind? " The king's tone surprised me. Yue Chen... When did that boy, who was beaten up by Yu Xian and who was often angry at me, become so strong?

"Hahaha... "You stinking brat, who gave you the courage to lie?"

"What is it? Want to try it? "

"My marksmanship is incorrect. If I accidentally hurt the two of you, I can only forgive you."

Yue Chen scoffed, but his tone was unquestionable.

I lay in the cold snow and prayed that all this would pass.

"Big brother, it's not worth it to get injured because of this little girl. What if she isn't Tang Qingxin's daughter?!"

"Hmph, you coward!"

"No... Brother, look at the gun in that kid's hand, it seems to be real … "

The man squinted his eyes as if he wanted to see if the gun in Yue Chen's hand was real or not.

"Let's go!" Then, he waved his hand and left in a hurry.

I dropped to the ground and let out a heavy breath.

"Are you okay?" Yue Chen walked up quickly and presented his hand in front of me. His white hand that was like jade caught my eye.

A boy's hand was actually so beautiful.

I tried to hold out my hand, perhaps too hard, and the pain in my back made me grimace and fall to the ground again.

"Adjust your breathing and use your legs to prop yourself up." Yue Chen grabbed onto my shoulder, and under his lead, I staggered to my feet. Yue Chen patted the snow on my pants and comforted me with a smile. "Don't be afraid, I've chased them away. They won't come back."

"Thank you. Just now, the A60 pistol in your hand could only be bought overseas. How did you get it?" I gasped slightly from the pain, and my face grew hot.

"Hmm?" Yue Chen sized me up with interest, his eyes carrying a trace of surprise. "I didn't think that you would actually know what's good."

"Of course." In the "human world", I have broadened my horizons.

"But you don't have the ability to distinguish between the real and the fake."

"Hmm?" I looked at Yue Chen suspiciously.

"I lied to them." He then threw the gun into the trash can beside him.

Looking at Yue Chen's mischievous smile, I was both angry and helpless. "If those men were to see through his trick, the consequences would be unimaginable." "It was so dangerous just now. You'd better not do this again in the future."

"Don't what? Did they just trample you to death? "

I laughed but didn't say anything. On the way back, I asked him why he was here. He told me it was because he was bored and wanted some fresh air.

How could I possibly believe that there were so many coincidences in this world, and that this was a place that was completely devoid of shit?

Along the way, Yue Chen and I were extremely quiet. He didn't ask me why I was being watched.

Actually, I don't know either.

"Yu Huan, who are your parents?" The sudden words caused me to be stunned.

"I …" I don't have a mother and father, should I tell this to Yue Chen or not?

"Actually, you don't have any parents, right?"

"How do you know?" I was surprised.

"When school just started, I knew that you had no family when you came to class with that woman."

I lowered my head. Turns out Yue Chen already knew about it, but I closed my mouth and did not discuss it with him in order to protect that little bit of self-respect.

"Why is it that when I'm with the Red Aunt, I don't have any parents?"

"Perhaps you should ask the woman who your birth mother is." Yue Chen's question and answer have really hit right into my heart, I really want to tell him that I've already asked Red Aunt a few times, but I'm always disappointed and return home.

Yue Chen sent me to an intersection that was very close to the "mortal world". I did not let Yue Chen enter because I was afraid that a boy as clean as him would be infected by the "human world" 's filth. After all, he was my only friend.

Back in the bedroom, lying on the bed, recalling everything that had happened today.

Tang Qingxin... young lady...

These two similar names echoed in my mind.

"Don't think that I don't know that you're Tang Qingxin's bastard …"

"Don't you think that she looks like the young lady?"

"You really look like the famous young lady here. If someone saw you without knowing anything, they would definitely mistake you as mother and daughter …"

I sat up in bed. The name "Qing" just so happened to be inlaid into it. Could they be the same person? And everyone said that young lady and I look very similar …

Tang Qingxin, is she really my mother?

At this moment, my heart couldn't calm down for a long time. I felt that there were too many secrets that I didn't know about, and I also felt that the Red Aunt must have hidden them from me on purpose.

But why did Red Aunt hide this from me? Why did she spend so much money to buy me from that poor family?

It seemed that there were some things that could not be delayed any longer.
