Yang Xue had never felt so exhausted. In a moment, she was back to when she had just started college. She felt as if she had a dream. A very, very long dream.
In the dream, she had joined some organizations and contributed to humanity's survival. After waking up from the dream, she couldn't help but shake her head and laugh lightly. It was surprising that she would have such a fantasy. Saving the world, that story only happened in movies. Now she just wants to study her major and find a good job in the future so that she can repay her uncle's kindness.
It was Monday. After the class, she went to a nearby restaurant to work part-time as usual. Although her uncle would give her money for living expenses, she usually did not spend it indiscriminately. She walked to an alley intersection.
Two children suddenly rushed out from inside, chasing and fighting, and hit an old lady who was passing by. The old lady couldn't take the force and fell to the ground, screaming in pain. The two children were stunned. She was frozen in place and didn't know what to do. Yang Xue immediately went to help the old lady up.
Like many old people, the old lady grabbed Yang Xue's arm, saying, "Don't go anywhere. You're the one who hit me. You have to pay for it!"
Yang Xue hurriedly said, "Old granny, you remember wrong. It was two children who knocked you down."
She clutched Yang Xue's arm to death, "I didn't see them. I saw you!"
More and more people gathered around, pointing at her. The good thing is that the two children are still there. Their parents also rushed over.
Yang Xue looked at them and whispered, "Hey, it was you who knocked this grandmother down, right?"
Listening to Yang Xue's words, their mother immediately retorted, "Hey, how can you say that? Our children are well-behaved. How come they would knock down an old lady. You tried to accuse my children, be careful, or I'll sue you!"
Yang Xue did not say anything and kept staring at the child's eyes. The two children are about ten years old and already know how to behave. Looking at more and more people, they also know that they have made a big trouble.
The slightly older one was silent for a while, then pointed at Yang Xue and said loudly, "It's not us. It's that big sister who knocked over!"
Compared with women, children are also natural actors. His eyes were clear, his voice was loud and clear, and he was as innocent as he could be. Then the people around started to accuse Yang Xue.
"Little girl, behave boldly. Since you knocked her down, send her to the hospital for examination. Pay some money, that's all. Why do you even try to accuse others falsely?"
"Yes, yes, they are still children. Do you know that this will ruin someone's life?"
"Nowadays, youngsters really the worse. Acted so arrogantly. Who knows what would they become later?"
Their words became more and more unpleasant. The old lady she helped up was even more unforgiving, saying one moment that she was dizzy and the next that she had a fracture.
Yang Xue's fists clenched. "Call the police." She suddenly said, "You guys call the police."
"What's this little girl talking about?"
"That's right. It would have been better to pay some money and forget it. Now you're going to get into a lawsuit..."
Yang Xue ignored their mockery. After saying this, she was silent. Half an hour later, the police came. After checking the surveillance outside the fruit store next to her, Yang Xue was finally cleared. However, the two children and their parents were long gone—the old lady still in disbelief. Yang Xue sighed and left the scene under the protection of the police. The surrounding crowd also dispersed and began to look for the next hustle and bustle to watch.
Despite all of this, Yang Xue sighed slightly and then headed for the restaurant where she works. This incident delayed a lot of time, and when she arrived at the store, it was already at the peak of rush hour. The manager didn't care about her reason and scolded her head. Yang Xue could only suffer in silence.
It was 11 PM, and the customers gradually thinned out. Yang Xue also began to clean up. Suddenly, she found a pink bag under a chair. She picked up the bag and gave it to the receptionist. There was a cell phone inside the bag, and the receptionist quickly contacted the owner. It was a woman dressed in a sultry manner.
She picked up her bag, looked at it, and then said to the receptionist, "That's not right. I'm missing some money here."
The manager rushed over. The front desk was monitored and could prove that after Yang Xue brought the bag, she didn't move the cash inside except for dialing her cell phone.
In this way, Yang Xue became the biggest suspect. Yang Xue cannot argue, and finally, under the manager's influence, the lady's so-called missing 200 yuan were compensated. This time she did not choose to call the police because there was no way to prove it.
I thought things would end like this. I didn't expect that when she was leaving, the manager would tell her that she won't be coming tomorrow and that today's salary would not be settled.
It was 12:30 AM. It was raining in the sky. It kept bigger and bigger. Yang Xue quickened her pace. After such a long delay, the dormitory was probably already closed, but she still wanted to go back.
She was passing by the entrance of the neighborhood that was falsely accused before. Yang Xue subconsciously looked inside. Just in time to see, a young woman is anxiously looking for something. There are hidden tear marks on her face, and she seems to be very anxious.
During the day, she also stood among the crowd of onlookers and said a few sarcastic words. Yang Xue frowned, but the kindness engraved in her bones still drove her to her.
"What's wrong? Is there anything you need help with?"
In the darkness, the woman didn't recognize Yang Xue's face. After all, who would deliberately remember someone who had been wronged?
She cried, "My child has a high fever. His father went out to drink and hasn't come back yet. I called the police, but they haven't come yet. Oh, my son."
The woman cried out in a desperate voice.
"Do you have a car at home? I'll take you to the hospital!"
"Yes, I do. Thank you so much."
When she went upstairs with the woman, Yang Xue found that the child suffered from a severe fever. He began to talk nonsense and was not clearly conscious. If this goes on, it will burn out the brain. Yang Xue hurriedly asked the woman to carry the child to the car. She kicked the gas pedal hastily to the nearest hospital.
The time was 1:30 AM, and there were not many pedestrians and vehicles on the road. Yang Xue was worried about the child's health and ran several red lights along the way, sending the mother and child into the hospital as fast as possible. Just when she was relieved, she was blocked by a traffic cop on a motorcycle outside the hospital.
"Excuse us miss. Our team organized a DUI inquiry and received a report that a Chevrolet with license plate number J1688 was speeding and ran several red lights. I followed it all the way here. May I ask if you drove it?"
"Yes." Yang Xue nodded and handed her driver's license to the traffic police, "There was a child with a fever. I was trying to send them to the hospital."
The traffic cop checked her license, issued a ticket, and then said, "Next time you encounter this kind of situation, you'd better report it to the police force in advance, and we'll open the way for you. Now you need to get a certificate from the patient's family and take it to the police force to eliminate the penalty. Otherwise, your license will be revoked. "
...
The next day, Yang Xue came to visit the mother and son. After the treatment, that little boy had been feeling well. Yang Xue said to let them help with the certificate thing. The mother promised her and said that she would take care of it tomorrow.
On the third day, Yang Xue came to the hospital again and found that they had left the hospital. Yang Xue found their home, but no matter how she knocked on the door, they didn't open the door.
Before she went upstairs, she clearly saw the woman standing on the balcony to collect clothes. Yang Xue found the property and finally knocked on the door of the family's house. Seeing Yang Xue's face, the woman was a little impatient.
"Who are you, and what are you looking for?"
Yang Xue where still does not know what she meant. Negotiation is fruitless. She can only leave that neighborhood with sadness and helplessness.
...
In a moment, Yang Xue woke up from her desk. She felt as if she had a long dream.
It was Monday, and she had to go to a nearby restaurant to do part-time work after class. Although her uncle would give her living expenses, she usually did not spend them indiscriminately. She walked to a small alley intersection. Two children suddenly rushed out from inside, chasing and fighting, and bumped into an old lady who was passing by.
Yang Xue subconsciously wanted to go forward to help. She stepped out but suddenly stopped moving because she realized that she seemed to have experienced this situation at some point.
As if she had experienced it many times.
