After half a year of being together, it's fake to say that I'm not moved, but the gap between him and me is insurmountable. Someone like me doesn't deserve a future with him.
Now I have more important things to do.
And, in this world, the only one who can truly protect oneself is oneself.

In the blink of an eye, July has arrived, and the college entrance examination results have finally been released.
Even though my score was lower than the mock exam when I answered the questions with my left hand, I can still go to a big city to buy a book.
I excitedly kissed my left hand. In the month before the college entrance examination, I practiced writing with my left hand every night, even if my hand cramped up. Although I didn't finish the test in the end, the result was still very good.
Grandma Li made a delicious meal for me, and as she held my left hand, she wiped away tears. I thought that if Mom were still here, she would definitely do the same.
After receiving my college acceptance letter, I immediately ran to the graveyard to tell Mom. I opened the package in front of Mom, loudly reading every word on the acceptance letter, especially emphasizing the major by repeating it several times.
"Mom, I chose to major in law. Your daughter will become a lawyer in the future. After I study law, no one will dare to bully me and you anymore. We will be able to protect ourselves with the law."
"Mom, Mom, I'm going to college. Are you happy? Can you see me from heaven, Mom..."
I can't control my sobbing anymore, crying out about every grievance I've suffered in the past six months.
Mom, your daughter is very strong. She no longer needs anyone to protect her, and can finally protect herself in the future.
Today is my 18th birthday, and besides my acceptance letter, I also brought a cake. It's my favorite flavor, mango. In the past, Mom never bought me mango-flavored cakes because Xia Jingshen is allergic to mango.
Today I turned 18 and finally got to eat it.
This cake is so sweet, so sweet. I didn't expect that mango cake would be so delicious. I can't believe I'm just trying it now.
When I came back from the cemetery, it was already evening. The old shabby house rented by Mom has expired, and Xia Jingshen will move out after the college entrance examination. I was taken in by Grandma Li at her house. I'm already 18, so I can start working and earning money from tomorrow.
I hadn't even gone upstairs when I smelled the delicious aroma of grandma's cooking - braised pork belly and fish-flavored shredded pork, both of which I love.
"Back already? Hurry and wash your hands for dinner. Grandma cooked braised pork belly for you and also bought watermelon in the fridge."
Grandma is still wearing the apron that my mother gave her, even the color is the same.
I watched Grandma Li's back and couldn't help but say, "Mom, I'm back."
After that, I found a part-time job at a convenience store. The manager used to have a good relationship with my mother, almost like sisters, so she took special care of me.
Not only did they not schedule me for the late shift, they also paid me the full-time standard hourly wage and even treated me to lunch.
Although Mom is no longer here, the light in my life still carries her shadow, Grandma Li and the store manager.
Mom always tells me to treat others well, not to do evil, and that good people will always be rewarded.
I didn't understand the weight of these words before, but now I truly feel from the bottom of my heart that Mom is really good, and Mom is truly an amazing woman.
When I was packing my luggage at night, I suddenly remembered the USB drive that Gu Tianqi had given me before. I hadn't had a chance to look at it yet!
There's no computer at my grandma's house, so I didn't even bother changing out of my work clothes. I immediately rushed to the internet cafe.
Open it, there are five or six folders inside, some with videos, some with text, and many pictures and screenshots of chat records.
I patiently started to look through it carefully from the beginning.
