7

My face still ached slightly, and my entire body was covered in bruises.

After boarding the plane, I put on an eye mask and finally fell into a deep sleep.

In the dream, the scene of Ethan proposing to me and the scene of him hitting me in front of Serena were intertwined, which made me exhausted.

In my dream, I said to Ethan, "I don't want you anymore." When I woke up, I had arrived at my destination. I took a bus, a motorcycle, a tricycle, and finally walked to the mountain village where I was teaching. My senior sister and my fellow teachers were already waiting there.

The senior gave me a warm hug and said, "Welcome, Liana, you've lost weight."

My nose was a little sour.

Although the conditions here are difficult and the daily teaching is quite busy, this busyness has become a good medicine for my spiritual trauma. The educational conditions and resources of the children in the mountain villages are relatively scarce, so when the teaching team arrived, they all seemed to be happy.

I could deeply feel their thirst and enthusiasm for knowledge. Looking at those young and innocent faces and listening to their chirping laughter, the pain in my heart gradually healed.

Since the children are still young, the teaching content is relatively simple.

Every teacher in the teaching team is an all-round talent. Whether it is Chinese, mathematics, English, art, music, or sports, they can teach with ease. After work, I will open my phone to record every bit of my time here, edit it into a video and share it online.

In this way, everyone can see the real living conditions of children in mountain villages, and the influence can be expanded to raise some donations to buy educational supplies for the children.

As the haze of life gradually dissipated, the sun shone into my heart. A fulfilling life gradually helped me walk out of the haze.

However, just as I was immersed in this busy and wonderful life, an uninvited guest suddenly appeared.

Ethan appeared in this poor mountain village, looking haggard. When he saw me, his eyes lit up instantly.

"Liana, why did you leave without saying a word? I have been looking for you so hard! If I hadn't seen the video you posted, I would never have found you! After you left, all I could think about was your image, and I found that I couldn't leave you at all! Come back with me, I miss you so much! Liana!"

He rushed over and hugged me tightly, burying his head in my neck, his voice choked with sobs.

Hot tears fell on my skin, awakening me instantly.

Ethan expressed his longing for me fondly.

I frowned and struggled to break free from his embrace, my eyes revealing a polite and distant look.

" Ethan , please respect yourself." I said lightly.

Ethan's eyes dimmed a little after seeing my attitude. But as if he suddenly remembered something, he carefully took something out of his arms and handed it to me.

"Liana, I bought you a new bracelet that belonged to your grandmother. I was wrong to give it to Serena before. I searched for a long time before I found this bracelet that is exactly the same as the one your grandmother left for you."

He looked at me with hope in his eyes, as if he saw how hard I had tried to be nice to him.

The past came flooding back to me, and those unbearable memories came back to me again. I suddenly felt a little tired.

I pushed away the things he brought me, stared at him and sneered.

" This is a relic left by my grandmother, and you took it to please Serena without my consent . What qualifications do you have to mention the bracelet again! I will never forgive you!"

My nasal cavity felt sore.

I was an abandoned baby, and my grandmother picked me up and raised me little by little. When I took Ethan back to see her, the old lady was very happy and struggled to stand up to make us delicious food. When she was dying, she took off the bracelet on her wrist and gave it to me. At that time, Ethan swore in front of my grandmother that he would always be good to me.

To me, the bracelet symbolizes my grandmother and his love.

But now, I have lost all of it.

"Go away, I don't want to see you." I said coldly.

Ethan's face turned pale when he heard the hatred in my words.
