The next evening, the news reported that I had been brutally murdered and dismembered.
Due to the severe damage to the body and the disfigurement of the face, they still could not identify me.
"Look at how short that girl's skirt is; it's no wonder something happened to her!"
"If she were my daughter, I would want to slap her silly!"
My dad couldn't stand it when I wore skirts. Every time I did, he would scold me for looking like a prostitute.
Yet he bought Xia Ruochu a whole wardrobe full of skirts and said that girls should wear skirts to look good.
The issue wasn't really about the skirts; it was his deep-seated disdain for me.
Xia Ruochu let out a slow breath as she watched the news.
She certainly knew it was me.
Just yesterday, right after class, she had asked to meet me in an abandoned building.
"I’m getting expelled, and you’re going on to graduate school? There’s no way I’ll let you have your way; I’ll make sure you don’t go!"
Before I could react, she pulled out the Notice from my bag, tore it to shreds, and tossed the pieces into the air.
Last week, during the final exam, she was caught cheating. Despite her pleas and apologies, the school decided to expel her.
I knew she was harboring resentment and reminded myself to be patient with her, so I didn’t argue back.
I quietly bent down to pick up the Notice, but unexpectedly, she shoved me off the high building.
"I’m also my dad's biological daughter; why does everyone call me a bastard? I've had enough of this life!"
"Go die! As long as you disappear, I will be my father's legitimate daughter!"
After a moment of weightlessness, I floated out of my own body, witnessing my tragic state and the smug face of Xia Ruochu.
On the night I died, Xia Ruochu posted on social media:
"My childhood birthday wish has finally come true today. May I be loved forever and be happy forever."
In the photo, she smiled with pure happiness. I never imagined that the person I considered my younger sister would hate me to the core.
Now, not only have I disappeared forever, but my cause of death has also been labeled as a homicide.
Sister, are you happy that I'm dead? Actually, I've always loved you; you just never knew.
Although the news didn't name me directly, the general description matched me perfectly.
My dad suddenly asked my mom, "When is Xia An'an coming back?"
My mom, who was chopping vegetables, was startled, and a splash of red appeared on the cutting board.
"Ah, she should be back soon. Who knows? Just ignore her."
"I heard that my sister went on a trip with her boyfriend. I wonder if she's safe. I'm really envious of her."
Xia Ruochu's sarcastic remarks instantly made my dad's face turn red with anger!
"This ungrateful girl is so shameless! How dare she go abroad with her boyfriend behind our backs? When she comes back, I'll make sure to skin her alive!"
My mom tightly covered her fingers and simply said, "Stop talking nonsense. She will definitely come back."
Mom, you must have recognized me too.
In the news, you saw my clothes, my backpack, and that longevity lock I've worn since childhood. You saw them all, didn't you?
I really didn't lie to you; it's just that you don't believe me.
After that day, my mom became particularly concerned about that case and my situation.
First, she secretly called me every day behind my dad's back, and later she hired a private investigator to track my whereabouts.
But no matter how much she fussed, she never received a single response from me.
I still remember the last call I made to her when I was on the brink of death.
"Mom, it hurts so much. Please come save me. Xia Ruochu pushed me down the stairs. Help me."
"What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't want to come home, just say so. Don't make up these ridiculous excuses!"
"Mom, I'm not! I'm really in so much pain. Please come save me."
"I'll say it again: if you want to die, just go ahead. We don't need this burden in our family!"
After that, the phone went silent with a series of beeping sounds, and I fell into complete despair.
As for how I was later humiliated and mistreated by that thug, I no longer cared at all.
