606 A Wish of a Thousand Paper Cranes

Recalling the past, her voice gradually lowered.

It was like the fists and swearing of the past came back again. They mocked her for being a pig, shameless and breaking the rules when she fought with the older children over a meat bun. They scolded her for being rubbish and told her to die…

Every word pierced her heart.

Her eyes were red. She turned her head around to look at the fully bloomed flowers in the garden.

Luckily, she fought back and was as fierce as a pack of wolves.
