The rapists/strong criminals are the most despised ones in there.

Others will try every way to discipline you and make you submit in all kinds of unacceptable ways.

Because of Si Nian's handsome appearance, he was bullied by his cellmates on the first night in prison.

He could endure verbal sarcasm and physical pain inflicted.

But those people's dirty behavior and looks made him feel that his worldview had collapsed.

He could not bear this humiliation and had to fight back.

Of course, he was beaten badly in the end and was put in solitary confinement.

It was a place that made everyone there shudder with fear.

That year I endured a week of physical and mental torture.

When he returned to the cell, he saw a slight turn for the better.

His roommates didn't torture him like they did on the first day, but they weren't much nicer to him either.

At most, we can just leave him to fend for himself.

But the attitude of the prison guards towards him was obviously much better.

From the explicit and implicit hints from the supervisor, Si Nian realized that it was the old man of the Si family who sent someone to take care of it.

In the days that followed, if he was safe and sound for a period of time, it meant that someone from the Si family had come to visit him.

If someone suddenly remembers to torture him one day, it would be because the old man of the Si family was busy and forgot about him.

At first, he hated the old man of the Si family very much.

Later, the old man rescued him from danger time and time again, and he couldn't help feeling grateful.

He spent two years in this state, entangled between resentment and gratitude every day.

On the day he was released, he did not tell the Si family and only informed his good brother Wu Chunhao.

Knowing that Wu Chunhao had always felt guilty about him, he took the initiative to accept his help so that he could feel better psychologically.

Later, the old man of the Si family came over and the talks between the grandfather and grandson broke down.

Si Nian poured out all the frustration and pent-up feelings he had accumulated over the years, as well as everything he had endured in the past two years, and attributed it all to the old man.

In the end, the grandfather and grandson parted unhappily.

Si Nian did not hesitate to borrow money to transfer the money that the old man had managed for him in the past two years to his account, and then unilaterally declared the severance of relations.

Then he naively thought that this would completely cut off all ties with the Si family.

Unexpectedly, without the special attention of Mr. Si, Si Yue became more and more rampant.

People come to cause trouble for him every now and then, and he has become numb to it.

The goal of living every day is to pay off debts.

At that time, he didn't dare to imagine what he would do if his debts were paid off one day.

Until the girl Jiang Sui came to Shenhai.

After reuniting with her, he gradually regained his confidence in life.

But his little girl was so bright and sunny, and he himself had already become dirty and vile. How could he stand beside her with a clear conscience?

On countless dark and silent nights, he would ponder when he couldn't sleep.

Later, he finally figured it out. He had to overturn his own case, restore the facts, and wash away all the dirt before he was worthy of standing beside the little girl.

Jiang Sui cried for a while again and found that Si Nian had been holding her tightly, not moving or speaking for a long time.

She slowly raised her head from his arms, but Si Nian suddenly held her head down and leaned back into his arms.

"Don't move, just for a moment!"

His voice was hoarse and his eyes were a little wet, and he didn't want her to see it.

Jiang Sui understood that Si Nian felt bad when he recalled the painful past.

So she stopped talking and just leaned quietly in his arms, hugging him tighter.

When both of them calmed down, Jiang Sui asked Si Nian again, did he go to find Xue Dan to overturn the verdict?

Si Nian did not deny it.

Since that woman has done that, how can she change easily?

What a long and rugged road Si Nian has to take!

Since he had made up his mind, she would accompany him till the end.

After knowing the truth, Jiang Sui would run to Si Nian's store and stick to him whenever he had nothing to do.

His life was so hard, and she wanted to give him more warmth to dispel the coldness in him.

On Christmas Eve, Jiang Sui specifically begged Xiao Wen to accompany her to the famous and popular Puji Temple in the local area.

She lit three incense sticks at Puji Temple, praying that everything would go well in the future.

Before leaving, I specifically asked the master in the temple for peace and blessings.

Xiao Wen even laughed at her for this. She said, "You are a contemporary college student, but you are so superstitious!"

Although Xiao Wen said this, he secretly prayed for peace.

Jiang Sui actually knew everything, but he just didn't know where Ping An Fu went in the end.

Christmas Eve was a Saturday. Jiang Sui put a small handwritten note into Ping An Fu's pocket and tied it tightly with a red string so that it would not be obvious that it had been opened.

She planned to spend Christmas Eve at Si Nian's place with him and not go back to school.

She packed some daily necessities in her schoolbag, left school, and bought some Christmas decorations at the school gate.

I thought about decorating Si Nian's place to make it look more festive and people would be in a better mood.

In the afternoon, Jiang Sui hurried to Sinian's store carrying large and small bags.

Xiao Hai was the only one in the store; Si Nian was not there.

Jiang Sui asked Xiao Hai where Sinian had gone, and Xiao Hai said he didn't know either.

Jiang Sui didn't think much about it and went up to the second floor alone, wanting to decorate the living room first.

She first hung a string of ambient lights on the glass door of the kitchen. After connecting the power supply, she tried it out. The lights flashed in an interlaced manner, and the festive atmosphere was immediately created.

Then Jiang Sui pasted many latte art designs with various Santa Claus images on the ceiling of the small living room.

For Jiang Sui, this is a big project.

Although the second floor of Si Nian's place is not high, for Jiang Sui's height, it is still a bit difficult to reach it even with a stool under his feet.

By the time she had finished pasting a roof with great effort, her forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat.

She got down from the stool and, without even bothering to wipe the sweat off her face, immediately cleaned the floor which she had made a little dirty.

Finally, Jiang Sui took out a small Christmas tree from the bag and placed it on the dining table, and also hung a string of luminous lights on it.

There were still some decorations left, so Jiang Sui put them away, intending to wait until Si Nian came back later to ask him if he wanted to hang some in the bedroom.

After finishing all this, Jiang Sui sat on the small sofa, wanting to take a rest and wait for Si Nian to come back.

But I don't know when I fell asleep.

When she heard the "dong dong" sound of the iron stairs in her sleep, she woke up and sat up.

It’s really Si Nian who has returned.

Jiang Sui immediately stood up and stood at the stairs to greet him.

Thinking about how he would see these and his mouth would curl up as if he was about to smile, she also curled up the corners of her mouth unconsciously.

"Brother, you're back! Look at me..."

Jiang Sui had only said half of her words to take credit for the event when she noticed that Sinian looked unhappy, so she swallowed the rest.

When Si Nian came up, he was stunned when he saw the decoration of the small living room.

Then he glanced at Jiang Sui, went back to the bedroom without saying a word and closed the door.

Jiang Sui was blocked outside the door, looking worried.

She could probably guess why Si Nian looked so cold again. He must have gone to see that woman again.

That woman must have humiliated him again with extremely abominable words.

Jiang Sui didn't know what else he could do, so he had to sit down at the dining table and wait for Si Nian to recover.

Not long after, the bedroom door opened.

Jiang Sui immediately stood up and looked towards Si Nian.

Si Nian stood at the door of the bedroom, with the Santa Claus streamer hung above his head by Jiang Sui.

Perhaps it was the wind that blew when the door was opened, and at this moment, the kindly smiling Santa Claus was floating above Si Nian's head.

Si Nian closed his eyes and spoke in a voice as cold as ice.

"Jiang Sui, please leave! Don't come here again in the future. Don't waste your time on me. You should focus all your attention on preparing to go abroad."

Jiang Sui didn't expect that Si Nian would say this to her as the first thing he said after coming out of the bedroom. She was stunned for a moment.

I know that Si Nian is trying to drive me away again.

It had been a long time since he had used such direct words to drive her away.

It had been so long that Jiang Sui thought that now that she knew his secrets, he no longer had to hide them or drive her away for fear that she would know.

Knowing that Si Nian was in a bad mood, Jiang Sui didn't intend to take his words to heart.

She turned around and went to the kitchen somewhat dully.

"Are you hungry? I recently learned a new dish online and I'll make it for you. Do you think you can eat it?"

Yes, when Jiang Sui has free time recently, he will use his mobile phone to study how to cook.

She didn't want to be taken care of by Si Nian all the time, and she also wanted to take better care of Si Nian in the future.

He needs care and attention so much, and she wants to make up for the love he has been missing for the past ten years.

"I told you to go away, didn't you hear me? What's the point of you doing all this for me?"

Si Nian's emotions had reached their peak. He tore off the Santa Claus streamer that Jiang Sui had hung with great effort on his head in the afternoon.

Jiang Sui paused, turned around and saw Santa Claus lying on the ground, still smiling, and felt uncomfortable in his heart.

She tried her best to control her emotions and walked to the sofa without saying a word to pack her schoolbag.

Since he didn't want her to see him in a depressed mood now, she should just obey and leave.

She will come again when he gets better.

Jiang Sui went downstairs and saw that Xiao Hai was no longer on the first floor. After she went out, she closed the door of Si Nian's store and hung a sign that said "Off work, taking a break."

Around Christmas, the temperature in Shenhai City has basically dropped to single digits.

I don’t know when it started to drizzle in the afternoon and the ground was a little wet. Maybe it was when Jiang Sui was busy in the small living room and sweated.

She suppressed her emotions and walked all the way to the bus stop.

Perhaps because the weather suddenly turned gloomy and cold, there were not many people at the bus stop at the moment.

Jiang Sui had been absent-minded all the way here and had even forgotten to bring the hood of his down jacket. His ears were now a little sore from the cold.

She hid behind the bus stop sign and put her hands over her ears, rubbing them gently.

As she rubbed her face, tears as big as beans fell from her face, dropped to the ground, and merged with the puddle of rain water on the ground.

At this moment, she could no longer control herself. She slid down, hugged her legs with her arms, and burst into tears.

She feels wronged too!

Although he felt extremely aggrieved, he did not dare to show it in front of Si Nian.

She knew that he was in a bad mood and under a lot of pressure, so he used such a harsh tone to drive her away.

But she still couldn't help feeling lost and sad.

After an entire afternoon of careful preparation, it all turned out to be meaningless in the end.

Who wouldn’t be sad about this?

From time to time, pedestrians on the bus stop would walk around the bus stop sign to take a look, wondering whose little girl it was that was crying so miserably alone on such a cold night.

Many people also came forward and kindly handed over a tissue.

Jiang Sui thought that Si Nian had driven her away like he did last time, but came back to look for her!

But when she looked up with joy and saw a strange face, the hope that had just risen in her heart was instantly shattered.

So she forgot to even say "thank you" to the kind person and just lowered her head and continued crying without thinking.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but Jiang Sui heard someone on the platform say that today was Christmas Eve and the road back to Shanghai University was jammed, so the bus company issued a temporary notice to collect the buses early.

According to the closing time they said, Jiang Sui looked at his phone and saw that there was only one bus left.

Jiang Sui wiped his face with the sleeve of his down jacket and stood up.

Her feet were a little numb, so she limped to the bus stop to wait for the bus.
