Abusive Characters
Wings Beyond the Cage
I was the only child in our village with no siblings.
My classmates envied me.
“Your parents must spoil you rotten.”
What they did not know was that my status as an only child had been stolen.
Yaoniang
My father was an imperial censor, and nothing mattered to him more than his reputation.
He had fathered me on a prostitute.
Mother and I were the greatest stains on his life, and he would have liked nothing better than to be rid of us.
Yinyin
After my sister passed away, Jiang Huaizhou treated me like her substitute.
He married me, yet he despised me.
Outside our marriage, he kept one lover after another.
He even mocked me, saying, “Even with Weiwei dead, you will never compare to her.”
He belittled me until I was worth less than nothing.
But then I remembered that there had once been someone who said to me:
“Yinyin, no one else matters. You matter most.”
