Chapter 229 The Suffering Between the Lines
Chapter 229 The Suffering Between the Lines
"Slap"!
A tear as big as a bean fell on the diary.
Feng Xiaoman sniffed with tears in her eyes.
Her brother had suffered so much injustice and hardship, yet he still felt sorry for letting her spend her New Year's Eve alone.
She remembered that day.
My brother arrived home at 3 a.m. on the second day of the Chinese New Year.
Feeling cold, he walked into the house with a fire burning.
White snowflakes filled his black hair, and his handsome face was frozen red.
Feng Xiaoman came up to him and complained to him, asking why he came back so late.
At that time, my brother did not make any excuses, but just coaxed her in a gentle voice.
He blocked all the sufferings from the outside world just to provide her with a worry-free world.
Her brother, the best brother in the world.
Feng Xiaoman turned to the next page with trembling fingers and continued reading.
2 month 10 day.
After returning home in the early hours of the second day of the Chinese New Year, I thought a lot.
Finally, I decided to learn to reject all unreasonable requests from Professor Zhao.
So, today, when Professor Zhao called me and asked me to go back and work for him before the winter vacation was over, I refused.
I am happy for myself too.
In the days to come, I will say no to all unreasonable requests.
3 month 11 day.
Including today, school has been open for a whole week.
Ever since he rejected Professor Zhao on the phone, he hasn't spoken a word to me.
Of course, they no longer assigned me any study or experimental tasks, and just left me alone.
it's fine.
If I don’t have any study tasks, I go to the library.
I was not allowed to do the experiment, so I just watched my classmates do it.
Luckily they didn't kick me out.
Of course, that’s when Professor Zhao is not around.
This is already very good and I am very grateful to my classmates.
4 month 5 day.
I was in a bad mood today because I was informed that my grants and scholarships had been cancelled.
I know that Professor Zhao is behind all this.
But it doesn't matter, I'm mentally prepared.
No, with scholarships and grants, I can always support myself by delivering food and working part-time as I did in college.
I hope my graduate school life can end as soon as possible, and then I can be free.
For my sister, for myself, and for the bright future of both of us, I will not give up, I will definitely persevere!
"..."
Seeing this, Feng Xiaoman's heart ached even more.
If it weren't for this diary, she would have no idea that her brother had been living this kind of life for the past few years.
I remember calling my brother before and he always sounded very happy.
Her brother also told her that the tutor was very good, the classmates were very good, and everyone was very friendly to him.
The school offers a lot of scholarships and grants.
He has enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear, and every day is fulfilling.
The brother also said that when he graduated, found a good job and made a lot of money, he would buy her the gold bracelet she wanted and take her traveling.
However, Feng Xiaoman will never wait for this day.
Drop after drop of tears fell on the diary, making the black words unclear.
She reached out to wipe it, but it wasn't clean at all.
Feng Xiaoman continued watching while crying.
Perhaps, because he had to work part-time as a delivery boy to earn tuition and living expenses, my brother's diary became intermittent.
But every stroke of the brush is so heavy.
It seems that the pressure is too great and he is forced into a desperate situation, so he writes a little to vent.
At this time, my brother's handwriting had become a little sloppy.
It's obvious that the mental pressure is enormous.
The diary records Professor Zhao's daily suppression of his brother.
Don't let him do experiments, don't let him go to internships, and don't take him to attend academic conferences.
He made indirect accusations in front of all his classmates.
Those who scolded him said that he came from the countryside and was destined to be a slave to others.
Scold him for overestimating his own abilities and daring to resist his mentor.
He even pointed at his nose and said straight out: He would not let his brother graduate so easily.
Every word in the diary reveals depression and pain.
Feng Xiaoman's eyes were bloodshot and her whole body was trembling.
I wish Professor Zhao Jiang would be cut into pieces.
She gritted her teeth and quickly flipped backwards.
Finally, two things happened in my brother's diary.
November 1
Today my sister took a long train ride to come see me at school.
She said she wanted to give me a surprise, so she didn't inform me in advance.
This girl always catches me off guard.
I was delivering a takeaway at the time. After receiving her call, I took off my coat and hurried over.
My sister is still as beautiful and lovely as before.
She took my arm and walked around the school for a long time.
This day was the most relaxing day I have had since becoming Professor Zhao’s graduate student.
In the evening, when I sent my sister to the hotel to rest, she said that after graduating from university, she would also apply for a graduate degree at my school.
I forced a smile, but I felt extremely bitter inside.
She can take the postgraduate entrance examination if she wants.
I will do my best to protect my little princess, choose a school for her and find a mentor for her.
I will never let her suffer what I have suffered!
November 1
The next day at my sister's school, she came to my research group without my consent.
She brought local specialties from her hometown and gave them to my classmates, and even visited Professor Zhao.
When I arrived, my sister was handing the specialty to Professor Zhao.
She smiled innocently and brightly: "Hello, Professor Zhao, I am your student, Feng Dashu's younger sister Feng Xiaoman. I heard from my brother that you are very good to him. As a younger sister, I am very grateful to you. This is the local specialty I brought from my hometown. I hope you like it."
My body froze there.
I couldn't help thinking that Professor Zhao would destroy those rustic specialties and insult my sister just like he had insulted me countless times before.
By then, the illusion I created in front of my sister will be exposed.
She would also know that her brother was a person who forced himself to smile and was submissive.
However, what I didn't expect was.
Professor Zhao actually accepted my sister's things, and his attitude was very gentle and humble.
He chatted a lot with his sister with a smile on his face.
He even said good things about me in front of my sister.
November 1
From the day Professor Zhao met my sister, he began to guide me in doing scientific research, attending conferences, and publishing papers again.
Even more attention than classmates in the same group.
I don't know why Professor Zhao suddenly changed his mind.
But I was too cowardly to ask why.
I'm afraid this is all just an illusion.
After I ask this question, Professor Zhao might become sarcastic and ferocious again.
And so, a period of anxiety passed.
One day, Professor Zhao called hurriedly.
He told me that Mr. Gu, the famous richest man in the country, was injured in Jicheng.
As a big name in the medical field, he and experts from other departments are being called upon to rush to Jicheng to treat Mr. Gu.
Each expert is allowed to have two assistants.
And I was one of the ones chosen by Professor Zhao.
I was stunned by this sudden good fortune.
While I was excited, I couldn't help but feel scared.
The days when Professor Zhao targeted me are still vivid in my mind.
I don't understand why he suddenly thinks so highly of me.
I can't guess what his ultimate goal is.
I’m even more afraid that when he says it, I won’t be able to bear it.
But just when I didn't know how to make a decision, the car that was going to take me to Jicheng had already stopped at the door of the rental house.
