“Lexie, are you going to the library?” Jade asked Lexic.
“I‘m not going. What is there in the library? I‘m full. I want to take a nap.” Lexie stretched herself and left.
Jade walked toward the library on her own.
On the avenue, Jade saw Krista and her follower bullying another girl.

Krista sneered, “What? See your savior? You felt that you would be saved. Unfortunately, it‘s useless. It‘s only right for you to repay for what you did. My shoes are a limited version, and I can‘t wear them anymore because you made them dirty. Since you are so poor, I‘ll wipe the change for you. Give me 10 thousand dollars.”
A pair of shoes cost more than jo thousand dollars, which was enough for the girl‘s living expenses for several years.
The girl smiled bitterly. It turned out that the life of a ricli person was so luxurious. She worked hard, but it was so difficult for her to live.

After loosening her clenched fists, the girl looked as if she was unafraid of death. “I don‘t have any money. I only have this life. Take it if you want it.”
Krista snorted coldly and said, “What‘s the use of a lowly life?

“Because I don‘t want to see your bullied was like her past selt.
“I‘m not stupid. Although your information in school shows that you‘re an orphan, you aren‘t an ordinary person. You won‘t understand that dignity is the most worthless to the poor.” Although the girl was young, she seemed to have experience the vicissitudes of life.
“What is your name?” Jade suddenly asked.
“Myla Lumley,” the girl replied.
Jade murmured the girl‘s name. The name sounded familiar. Suddenly, Jade said, “Myla Lumley. Aren‘t you the one who takes first place in grade every year in chemistry?”
Myla nodded.
Jade looked at Myla with clear and sincere eyes. “I don‘t deny that my current life is very good, but I also know how cold the basement is in winter, how bad the food is in summer, low painful it is to be bitten by a mouse, and how humiliating it is to be bullied.”
Myla looked at Jade in a daze and was speechless.
Jade smiled, “Believe me, the gears of fate are turning. It will surprise you one day.” After a pause, Jade said a string of numbers. It was her phone number. She knew that Myla could remember it by hearing it once.
After saying that, Jade turned around and left.
