Wang Xu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the bright night view of the city. As an executive at a well-known technology company, his career is thriving, but his busy schedule leaves him with little time to spend with his family. He turned to look at the living room, where his wife Wang Xin was sorting out his daughter Wang Yao's study materials.
"Husband, Yaoyao's report card is out," Wang Xin smiled and handed over a piece of paper, "It's the first grade again." "
Wang Xu took the report card with a proud smile on his face. "It deserves to be my Wang Xu's daughter!" He strode to Wang Yao's room and pushed open the door, "Yaoyao, Dad is proud of you!" "
Ten-year-old Wang Yao raised her head, a hint of anticipation flashed in her eyes, "Dad, can we go to the amusement park this weekend?" "
Wang Xu's expression suddenly became serious, "Amusement park? Don't you think you don't have enough time to study? I have made a new study plan for you, which will be implemented from tomorrow. "
Wang Yao lowered his head and said in disappointment, "Okay, Dad." "
Time flies, and Wang Yao enters junior high school. One night, Wang Xu frowned when he checked his daughter's homework. "This question is wrong, redo it!" His voice was unmistakable.
Wang Yao looked at the clock on the wall, it was almost midnight. "Dad, I'm really tired, can I do it again tomorrow?"
"No way!" Wang Xu said sharply, "Do you want to lose at the starting line?" You are not allowed to participate in any recreational activities on weekends, so you can concentrate on your studies! "
Wang Yao bit her lip and held back her tears. She secretly glanced at her mother, who was standing at the door, and her heart was full of grievance and anger.
Three years later, Wang Yao was admitted to the city's key high school with the first grade in the school. At the celebration dinner, Wang Xu raised his glass, "Yaoyao, Dad is proud of you." This is just the beginning, though. Your goal is Tsinghua University and Peking University, understand? "
Wang Yao barely squeezed out a smile, "Understood, Dad." "
However, in the first monthly exam of the first year of high school, the exhausted Wang Yao unusually failed. When the transcript was handed to Wang Xu, his face instantly became gloomy.
"Is this the result of your efforts?" Wang Xu slapped the table and stood up, "Are you secretly playing with your mobile phone?" From now on, all extracurricular activities are cancelled! "
"But Dad, I really tried my best!" Wang Yao finally couldn't help crying.
"Enough!" Wang Xu roared angrily, "If you do this again, don't think about going to college!" "
Wang Xin tried to persuade, "Husband, calm down..."
"Don't meddle!" Wang Xu turned to his wife, "It's just that you usually spoil her too much!" "
Looking at his father's hideous face, a certain string in Wang Yao's heart seemed to be broken. She clenched her fists silently, and a cold determination flashed in her eyes.
After the start of the second year of high school, Wang Yao's attitude has undergone a subtle change. She is superficially obedient to her father's arrangement, but secretly she is brewing a plan to resist. One night, when Wang Xu routinely checked his daughter's exam results, his face suddenly turned pale.
"What's going on?" Wang Xu pointed to an exam paper, with suppressed anger in his voice, "You have never scored such a low score before!" "
Wang Yao replied expressionlessly: "It may be that he has not been in a good state recently." "
"Not in good shape?" Wang Xu slapped the table and stood up, "Do you know that this is a critical period?" There is no room for sloppiness! "
Wang Xin heard the movement and rushed to dissuade her: "Husband, don't be like this, Yaoyao must be in a hurry..."
"You don't care!" Wang Xu interrupted his wife sharply and turned to Wang Yao, "From tomorrow onwards, I will personally stare at you to study!" "
In the days that followed, the quarrels between father and daughter became more frequent. Once, Wang Yao even threw a book at her father out of control during an argument.
Wang Xin saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. She chose a night when Wang Xu was working overtime and knocked on her daughter's door gently.
"Yaoyao, can mom come in?"
There was silence in the room for a moment, and then there was a faint "Come in".
Wang Xin sat down next to her daughter and asked softly, "What's going on lately?" Mom looks like you have something on your mind. "
Wang Yao raised her head, and a trace of complicated emotions flashed in her eyes: "Mom, do you think I'm bad?" "
"How so?" Wang Xin hurriedly said, "You have always been our pride. "
"Huh, proud?" Wang Yao sneered, "In Dad's eyes, I'm afraid I'm just a tool he uses to show off." "
Wang Xin was stunned and didn't know how to respond. She tried to hug her daughter, but was ruthlessly pushed away.
"Mom, let's go. You can't help me. "
Looking at her daughter's cold expression, Wang Xin felt a burst of heartache. She realizes that the family is heading for a terrible abyss.
In the last month before the college entrance examination, Wang Xu's behavior became more and more extreme. He even took time off work to stay at home and supervise his daughter's studies around the clock.
"Give me my phone." One night, Wang Xu stretched out his hand to Wang Yao, who was reviewing.
"Why?" Wang Yao asked dissatisfiedly.
"Don't think I don't know you're secretly chatting on your phone." Wang Xu said coldly, "From now on, all your social interactions will be suspended." Concentrate on preparing for the exam! "
Wang Yao unwillingly handed over her mobile phone, but a dangerous glint flashed in her eyes. That night, she wrote chilling words in her diary: "One day, I will make you regret what you did today."
Finally, the college entrance examination came as scheduled. To Wang Xu and Wang Xin's surprise, Wang Yao behaved unusually calmly during the exam.
After the last exam, Wang Xu asked with some apprehension: "How did you do in the exam?" "
Wang Yao replied with a smile: "It's not bad, I think I should be able to get into a good university." "
Hearing this, Wang Xu and Wang Xin both breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't notice the eerie glint in their daughter's eyes.
In the days of waiting for the results, Wang Yao's attitude seemed to have changed subtly. She began to take the initiative to communicate with her parents, and even asked about her father's work. This change made Wang Xu and Wang Xin feel gratified, and they thought that the family relationship had finally taken a turn for the better.
However, what they didn't know was that Wang Yao had already made an amazing decision in her heart. In the depths of her diary, there is a shocking page of text:
"If I am really admitted to Tsinghua University or Peking University, it will be my last 'gift' to my father. I want to use the most extreme way to make him understand what the 'success' he has been pursuing will come at a cost. "
On the day the college entrance examination results were announced, Wang Yao almost locked the admission ticket to Tsinghua University or Peking University with an excellent score of 150 points higher than the first line. When the whole family was immersed in joy, no one noticed the meaningful smile on the corner of Wang Yao's mouth.
In the early morning, the sun shines through the curtains on Wang Yao's bed. She opened her eyes and looked at the acceptance letter on the bedside table, a wry smile on the corner of her mouth. Outside the door, the excited conversation of parents could be heard.
"Yaoyao, are you up?" Wang Xin knocked lightly on the door, "Dad specially asked for leave, let's go celebrate together!" "
Wang Yao took a deep breath, forced herself to smile, and opened the door. "Mom, I'm a little unwell, can I go out later?"
Wang Xin touched her daughter's forehead worriedly, "I don't have a fever." Do you want to go to the hospital? "
"No, I'll just take a break." Wang Yao said softly.
Wang Xu walked over and rarely showed a gentle expression, "It's okay, let her rest well." We'll go out together at noon. "
After her parents left, Wang Yao slowly walked to the balcony. She looked down at the bustling street below, replaying bits and pieces of the years in her mind. The father's stern reprimand, the mother's helpless eyes, the pain and despair in his heart, flashed like a movie.
She took a deep breath and climbed onto the balcony railing with trembling hands. The hustle and bustle of the streets seemed to be far away, and only the sound of his own rapid heartbeat was left in his ears.
"I'm sorry, Mom and Dad..."Wang Yao muttered to herself, tears sliding uncontrollably.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion downstairs. Someone shouted in horror: "Look! Someone is going to jump off a building! "
Wang Xu and Wang Xin were waiting for their daughter at a nearby restaurant. Suddenly, Wang Xu's mobile phone rang, and it was a neighbor calling. "Hey, Wang, it's not good! Your daughter..."
Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Wang Xu stood up suddenly, pulled Wang Xin and ran home. Their hearts were filled with fear and unease, praying that it was just a misunderstanding.
When they arrived at the gate of the community, the scene in front of them made them collapse instantly. The crowd of onlookers, the shrill sirens, and... The all-too-familiar figure on the ground.
"Yaoyao!" Wang Xu roared and rushed forward, kneeling beside his daughter. His hands trembled, and he wanted to touch his daughter, but he didn't dare.
Wang Xin froze in place, his eyes distracted. She muttered to herself, "It can't be... It can't be..."
Just then, someone ran down from the stairs with a piece of paper in his hand. "Comrade policeman, I found this in the deceased's room."
Wang Xu mechanically took the piece of paper, and there was only a simple line of words on it:
"Dad, this is my 'success gift' for you."
At this moment, Wang Xu was struck by lightning. He suddenly realized that the "success" he had been pursuing had become a murder weapon to push his daughter to a dead end. He looked up to the sky and roared, tears of remorse welling up in his eyes.
Sirens whistle by, leaving behind only a shattered family and endless remorse and self-blame.
