Chapter 447
The mirage was so huge that it dazzled her.
The moment she stepped out of the train station, she suddenly felt lost. Could she really survive in this bustling city? Should she just go back? Back to a place she knew well, where she knew every blade of grass, every brick, every tile. A deep understanding of that small town would help her overcome many challenges.
No, I can't go back.
She tried hard to control her legs that wanted to retreat.
What will be my fate if I go back?
In the short term, she might not be discovered by her family, but as time went on, she would inevitably run into familiar people. No one would think that a rebellious child running away was right, and if they met her, they would definitely tell her parents without hesitation.
By then, she would be trapped in the small yard and small kitchen at home.
Maybe if she is lucky, her parents will allow her to continue working outside, but then the salary will not belong to her. After all... every penny in the family belongs to her good brother, how can she deserve it?
When she gets a little older, she will be screened by her parents and marry a man whose appearance, character, and everything else she doesn't know. Oh no, that's not entirely true. At least she will know how much the man can give as a betrothal gift.
In this way, her good brother had another asset to squander.
Isn’t that what Niu Chunhua is like?
Thinking of the lessons learned from the past, Ye Xin firmly believed that resistance was futile. As long as she was still under the control of her parents, she would never be able to do what she wanted to do. She had to leave there.
Leaving the place that was familiar to her but also where she would be controlled and suppressed.
The mirage was so big that she couldn't tell which way was ahead. But the mirage was so big that no one could find her, and that was enough.
Ye Xin stood at the train station's exit, watching the crowds coming and going. The bustling crowd was diverse: some walked lightly and confidently, some were heavily bagged, burdened, and some had cold, composed expressions. Despite their diverse appearances, it seemed as if everyone was moving forward toward an unwavering goal.
What about herself? She clutched the bag tightly in her hand and looked around, her eyes a little confused.
In fact, she didn’t know what she really wanted to do. Her only dream was to escape, but what would happen after escaping?
Fortunately, Ye Xin is not a stubborn person. If he can't figure it out for the time being, then he will stop thinking about it and just live on!
Forget about dreams and just survive here! Take your time, take food, clothing, housing and transportation one step at a time, and solve the most basic problems before considering other things.
The first stop of Ye Xin’s trip to Shanghai was Pudong New Area.
It wasn't for any other reason, but simply because this area's name appeared most frequently in the newspapers she read while working at the small restaurant. She thought, surely a place like this would have good development prospects?
The consumption level in Hai City far exceeded Ye Xin's imagination. Holding the only half-year salary in her hand, she asked along the way where there was a cheap house to rent. Finally, she found Zheng Jiayi's place.
In Ye Xin's opinion, it doesn't matter if the house is too small, the furniture is too simple, or the alley is too deep and unsafe, as long as it is cheap.
After all, even for the cheapest house, the little money she had was only enough to pay for two and a half months of rent.
It was too difficult, but Ye Xin looked at this small room that temporarily belonged to her completely, and suddenly felt an infinite sense of security in her heart.
Oh, a temporary sense of security limited to two and a half months.
