Capítulo 1029: Chapter 1029: The Truth Back Then (4)
During that time, she was very scared, and every time she closed her eyes, she saw the bloody scene of Wang Qiangsheng’s death by falling.
She was afraid to sleep for a long time.
The incident created a huge commotion. Wang Qiangsheng’s parents went to the school, protested by painting graffiti, and demanded compensation from the school.
They even threatened to sue her.
It was truly sensational, a student jumping to their death is a big deal, and the news couldn’t be contained.
Later, her brother and aunt worked together to suppress the news and privately settled with Wang Qiangsheng’s parents.
There was surveillance behind the teaching building, which captured Wang Qiangsheng pulling her into a corner and stabbing her, and the footage ended up in her brother’s hands.
The incident was not her fault at all, she was also a victim.
But no matter what, Wang Qiangsheng’s death was related to her.
Neither party had a solid position, and private settlement was the best method; it would be bad for anyone if it went to court.
Wang Qiangsheng’s parents were also afraid that the Yan Family would sue them, and both parents were greedy, demanding a large sum of money.
A problem that can be solved with money is never a problem; at the time, the Yan Family was in a sensitive situation, not suitable to cause trouble, so they paid the money, and the matter was left unsettled.
However, she was so severely traumatized that she developed autism.
She was afraid to sleep due to nightmares, her spirit was on the verge of collapse multiple times, and she even had suicidal thoughts.
Her autism worsened progressively, leading to a deep self-loathing; once she even broke a mirror and used the shards to cut her own face.
Subconsciously, she believed her face was the cause of her troubles, that it was her face that made Wang Qiangsheng have inappropriate thoughts about her, and if she didn’t have that face, maybe none of this would have happened.
After that self-harming incident, her brother realized the seriousness of the situation; she was suffering from severe psychological illness.
Under the doctor’s suggestion, her aunt sent her abroad, where psychologists were more professional and she could leave this land behind to start anew.
Under the guidance of a psychologist, she slowly emerged from that shadow after two years and began a new life.
She underwent cosmetic surgery.
First, the scars from the mirror shards needed to be removed.
Second, that face would remind her of the past and she feared others recognizing her.
So she had plastic surgery, altering nearly her entire face to start over.
She also lived abroad for three more years, completely healing the initial trauma before daring to return home.
Since that incident, her personality changed, becoming arrogant, domineering, and willful with a princess syndrome.
That was not her true nature; she just wanted everyone to hate her, to stay away from her.
The matter with Wang Qiangsheng became a lifelong shadow for her.
If everyone hated her, similar incidents wouldn’t happen again.
Xia Weibao felt heartbroken and hugged her tighter.
She fully understood how terrifying the pressure from public opinion could be.
Sometimes it can truly drive someone to death!
Yan Yuexian was not at fault for that incident, yet no one would sympathize with her, and no one would understand her; everyone blamed her for Wang Qiangsheng’s death.
But did she drive the person to death?
No!
From beginning to end, she was the biggest victim!
But no one cared about this; how many people must suffer from online violence before it will relent?
Perhaps it never will.
“What should I do?” Yan Yuexian’s voice was filled with tears, full of helplessness.
The current situation grew so large, how could she clean it up?
Not only her but also the Yan Family.
