Hou Lin contemplated her words and said, "That's lying…Lying to Mom, Dad, my classmates and the teacher…"
"So you rather get bullied or scolded instead?" Zhan Yahui shot him a cold look. "You must act in a way that always makes you look right in front of others. Otherwise…otherwise, we only suffer…" she clenched the spoon in her palm, her body trembling with anger, "we only die if others think shit of us…Like…"
Like Mom and Dad…
Hou Lin lowered his head. "I don't know anymore. Everybody says different things. I don't know who…who to believe anymore…"
Zhan Yahui broke from her daze and grimaced. "Forget about the rest of the world to believe. You do what you feel is right. Your father thinks that it's stupid to get bullied over not following the herd? Then he is the stupid one because bullying is very real. Do people not needlessly trouble him at his office?"
"Dad does complain about his colleagues many times."
