My name is Li Feng and I am an ordinary college student. The family lives on the outskirts of the city, and the family is not wealthy, but it is also passable. I have a mother who loves me dearly, a father who expects something from me, and a lovely younger sister who is five years younger than me, named Xiaoyu. Although my family background is modest, I have always been passionate about life and studied hard, hoping to change the fate of my family one day.
That day, it was getting late, and I was walking home tired with my schoolbag on my back. A gust of night wind blew, bringing a hint of coolness, and I couldn't help but speed up my pace. While walking through a bustling intersection, a scream was suddenly heard. I subconsciously stopped, looked back, and saw a group of people watching something around the corner, and the cries for help made me feel bad.
Without thinking too much, I took a quick step towards the crowd and looked closer, where a woman in tattered clothes was being dragged down a dark alley by two men. She struggled helplessly with a frightened face, but the two men were clearly undaunted, laughing at her and dragging her forward with all his might. I felt angry that I couldn't watch this happen.
"Let her go!" I shouted hard and rushed over.
"Boy, get out of the way!" One of the men turned to look at me, a sneer curling at the corners of his mouth.
Undeterred, I grabbed the woman and pulled her out of their hands with all my might. The woman staggered to my side, I held her, frowned slightly, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" "
"Thank you." Her voice trembled, and she looked up at me with gratitude and horror in her eyes.
"Let's go, it's not safe here." I hurriedly pulled her and hurried to the street.
"Thank you, thank you for saving me." She said as she walked, her voice a little hoarse, clearly frightened.
"You're welcome, this is what I'm supposed to do. Do you have any places to go now? I asked, feeling angry and sympathetic to what happened to her.
She was silent for a moment, and said in a trembling voice, "I...... I don't have a home and nowhere to go. "
Hearing this, I felt a pang in my heart, and I couldn't bear to watch her wander the streets. I decided to take her home for the time being, at least to give her a safe place to spend the night.
When I got home, I took the woman to the living room and carefully sat her down. Seeing this, the mother came over in surprise and asked, "Son, who is this?" "
I briefly explained the situation to my mother and said, "Mom, she is a girl I met on my way home and was bullied. I'll bring her back for the time being, so let's spend the night here. "
The mother looked at the woman with a little concern, then nodded slightly, and said, "Okay, but make sure she doesn't get us in trouble." "
I hurriedly reassured my mother, then brought the woman another cup of hot water and asked her if she needed something to eat.
She shook her head, smiled and said, "Don't bother, thank you for your kindness." "
I nodded, admiring her strength and self-esteem. However, looking at her tired appearance, I felt that I couldn't bear to let her spend the night alone in the living room like this. So I offered to let her sleep in my room temporarily, and I went to the living room to sleep on the sofa by myself.
"I really don't need to, I can sleep in the living room." She said with some hesitation.
"It's okay, you can rest first, I'll sleep in the living room." I insisted.
She gave me a grateful look, nodded, and followed me into the room. I brought her a set of clean sheets and bedding, and then I told her where the bathroom was, and told her to open up if she needed anything.
When I closed the door and walked out of the room, I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart. I didn't know the woman very well, but I felt it was my duty to help her, at least not to let her suffer on the streets. I took a deep breath and subconsciously wished she could rest here for the night.
When I woke up the next morning, I found that the woman was gone. I was a little disappointed and a little worried, and I didn't know where she went. I quickly got up and went to the living room to ask my mother, but she didn't see the woman either.
"Son, maybe she just wanted to find a place to rest for a while last night, and left in the morning." Mother comforted.
I nodded, feeling a little lost. I wanted to know more about her and maybe help her, but now it seems that maybe she doesn't want to know too much. I had to accept this fact, but I was still worried about her.
For the next few days, I silently prayed in my heart that the woman would find a safe place to live and not be harmed again. Although we only met for a short time, her figure was deeply imprinted in my heart.
(To be continued)
A few days later, I still think about the woman. Every day on the way home, I can't help but look at that street corner, hoping to see her again. However, as time passed, she never appeared again.
Until one evening, a week later, I passed that street corner again on my way home. At this moment, I suddenly heard a familiar voice, it was the woman's call.
"Young man!" Her voice trembled, and I immediately stopped and looked back.
She stood on the corner of the street, her clothes still tattered, but her face looked much better than before. When she saw me stop, she hurried over and looked around nervously.
"What's wrong with you? What happened? I asked hurriedly.
She took a breath, calmed down a little, and then said, "Those two people, they...... They found me again. I didn't know where to go, so I had to ...... I had to come to you. "
Hearing her words, I felt a wave of anger in my heart. I remembered the scene when she was bullied by those two men before, and my heart was full of helplessness and resentment. I gently patted her on the shoulder and comforted, "Don't worry, with me here, they won't dare to bully you anymore." Come with me, hide in my house for a while. "
She nodded, expressed her gratitude, and hurried with me in the direction of home.
When I got home, I couldn't wait to tell my mother what had happened, and although she was a little worried, she gladly accepted the woman's temporary home arrangement. She settled her in the living room, then kindly brought some food and water for her to rest for a while.
At dinner, the mother offered to invite the woman to dine with her. Although her presence made the atmosphere a little awkward, her mother still tried her best to make her feel the warmth of home.
"This is our family's Xiaofeng, he is my son." Mother introduced her.
"Hello, thank you for your help." She said politely, a shy smile on her face.
I smiled and started chatting with her, trying to break the awkwardness. She gradually relaxed and began to share some of her experiences and stories with us. I listened to it with relish, and my heart was full of sympathy and emotion for her life experience.
After dinner, her mother offered to invite her to stay at home for the night, and she gladly accepted. I was secretly relieved that it wasn't safe for her to wander outside.
The next morning, I woke up to find the woman awake and sitting in the living room with a cup of hot tea in front of her.
"Good morning, little wind." She smiled as she saw me walk out of the room.
"Good morning, did you sleep well?" I asked with concern.
She nodded, smiled and said, "Thank you for taking care of me, I slept well." "
I felt relieved, after all, she was at ease in my home, and I did a little bit of responsibility. I sat next to her, picked up my teacup, and chatted with her about some light-hearted topics, trying to put her at ease.
"That...... Xiaofeng, I'm sorry for causing you any trouble. She said suddenly, slightly apologetic.
I shook my head and said with a smile, "It's okay, we're happy to help you." Have you ever wondered what you want to do in the future? "
She was silent for a moment, her eyes a little confused, and then she said, "I...... I don't know. Maybe I should think about it, get a job, and start living again. "
When I heard her words, my heart moved, and an idea came to mind. I know there's a small restaurant nearby that is looking for waiters, maybe she can try it. So I immediately shared the idea with her.
"Sounds good, I can try." She nodded, a look of anticipation on her face.
I gave her a few words of encouragement and offered to go to the restaurant together. She readily agreed, and we left the house together and headed to the restaurant.
When we got to the restaurant, I helped her tidy up her clothes, gave her a few words of encouragement, and then walked in together. The atmosphere in the restaurant is lively, with people coming and going, and waiters busily shuttling between the various tables. We found the hiring manager, I gave her a briefing, and she went for an interview.
Although I was around, I tried not to interfere with her performance so that she could show her abilities independently. After a brief Q&A and trial work, the manager nodded with satisfaction and said that he could give her a chance to try it out.
She had a big smile on her face when she heard the good news, and I was happy for her. After all, getting a job is an important turning point for her to start her life all over again.
As we left the restaurant, she held my hand tightly and said gratefully, "Thank you, Xiaofeng." If it weren't for you, I might still be living on the streets. "
I patted her lightly on the shoulder and said with a smile, "You're welcome, as long as you work hard, everything will get better and better." "
As the days passed, the woman gradually found her place in the restaurant and became a qualified waitress. I often visit restaurants and see her busy figure, and my heart is always full of relief and pride.
Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, a few months had passed. The relationship between me and the woman has also become more and more intimate, and we often chat together during breaks to share each other's life experiences and feelings. Gradually, she opened up to me and told me some of her past and dreams.
"Xiaofeng, do you know, I used to have a dream when I was a child, and that was to become a singer." She said softly, her eyes revealing a hint of remembrance and regret.
"Really? So why didn't you go for it? I asked curiously.
She smiled wryly and said, "Because the reality of life makes it impossible for me to realize my dreams." My family was poor, and my parents didn't support me. So I had to give up and do something that ordinary people could do to earn money to support myself. "
When I heard her words, I felt a wave of emotion in my heart. The cruelty of life can sometimes make people have to give up their dreams and face reality. But I don't want to see her give up and regret her dreams.
"Maybe now, you have a chance to pursue your dreams again." I encouraged.
She looked up at me with a glimmer of hope in her eyes. I continued: "You have shown your talent and ability and have been recognized in the restaurant. Maybe you can take part in some singing competitions in your spare time to explore your musical potential. "
When she heard my words, there was a hint of hesitation on her face, but there was a glint of excitement in her eyes. She thought for a moment, then nodded, willing to try.
From that day on, we worked together on a plan to help her pursue her musical dreams again. In my spare time, I practiced her songs and helped her improve her acting skills, and she worked hard to prepare for the opportunity to participate in singing competitions.
After months of hard work, I finally had a chance to participate in a singing competition. I accompanied her to sign up, and when I saw her excitement and anticipation, I couldn't help but pray for her.
The day of the competition finally came, and I accompanied her to the competition site, watching her step by step on the stage, my heart was full of expectations and blessings. When she started singing, I felt the passion and determination in her heart. She interprets every note with her heart and puts her emotions into it, which makes people feel her sincerity and talent.
After the competition, she won the first place, and the audience applauded. I looked at her joyful smile and my heart was filled with joy and pride. She has rediscovered her musical dreams, and I am very happy for her.
On the way home, she held my hand tightly and said gratefully, "Thank you, Xiaofeng." Without you, I might never have dared to pursue my dreams. "
I smiled and shook my head and said, "No thanks, your own hard work and courage are the most important thing." I'm just there for you, giving you a little encouragement and support. "
We talked all the way, imagining all the possibilities of the future, and our hearts were full of hope and anticipation for life.
