I sneered, picked up my household registration book, and rubbed it.
It’s laughable. After I went to college, my parents transferred my household registration to the school.
They said I was an adult now and should be responsible for myself.
Now is the perfect time to leave.
I picked up my luggage and left without hesitation.
Dad, Mom, goodbye forever!
Been SVR Head all SVIP story
The Johnson family, the richest in the south of the city, took their son and wife on a week–long trip. Throughout the journey, he didn’t make a
single call to me.
On the last day of their return, Mr. Johnson finally thought of me, but he couldn’t get through to my phone. By then, I had already arrived at the laboratory to start the closed research project.
Mr. Johnson looked at his phone, somewhat puzzled, “Why isn’t Sarah answering?”
“She’s probably still working part–time. Didn’t she say she found two more tutoring jobs? She must be too busy!”
Mr. Johnson sighed, “Are we being too harsh on her? Thinking of Jack, and then looking at her, at the same age, Sarah really has it too hard.”
Mrs. Johnson dismissed it, “But Sarah can stand on her own feet. At her age, being able to support herself without us having to worry, you
should feel relieved.”
The woman nodded, feeling it was indeed so.
However, when they returned home and looked around the house, they felt something wasn’t right.
“Why hasn’t Sarah done the housework?”
They lived in an old house near the road, which needed daily cleaning, otherwise it would be covered in dust.
There was clearly a layer of dust on the table and floor.
Mr. Johnson said, “What’s the big deal? Maybe the child was tired. When she comes back, we’ll tell her we got a bonus, so she doesn’t have to
work so hard.”
“You’re feeling sorry for her, aren’t you!”
“Of course I feel sorry for her. She’s my daughter too.”
“Let’s clean up a bit. This time we only sent her a message when we left. I don’t know if she believed it. After all, working overtime or even going on a business trip during the Christmas is a bit much.”
Mrs. Johnson didn’t think much of it. It had been like this for the past few years, and Sarah never suspected anything.
However, when she walked into the room and saw the photo on the bedside table, she suddenly felt as if she had fallen into an ice pit!
“John, something’s wrong! Come look quickly!”
Mr. Johnson hurried in, saw Jack’s photo, and immediately understood.
“When did she go to the old house!”
“I don’t know. Quickly call and ask.”

But Sarah’s phone was still unreachable. With no choice, they had to call Jack.
The moment the call connected, Jack admitted it directly.
“She came a week ago. I’ve already told her that you raised her with a lot of effort. She’s not going to complain to you, is she?”
Hearing this, Mr. Johnson became furious, “Who told you to meet and talk to her? Do you know she can’t be contacted now!”
A week. He should have realized earlier. In the past when they left, Sarah would always ask when they were coming back, if they had eaten on
time!
Now not a word, this was very unusual!
On the other end of the phone, Jack was unconcerned, “Isn’t it good that she can’t be contacted? When you raised her poorly, wasn’t it because she was born to harm me and absorb my luck!”
“Have you forgotten what the master said? You couldn’t bear to abandon her, now she’s left on her own. I’m your only son now, isn’t this what everyone wanted!”
Mr. Johnson was furious but at a loss for words, while his wife Mrs. Johnson burst into tears, “What are we going to do? Sarah must have
found out. We’ve lied to her for so long, she must hate us!”
Unfortunately, I didn’t hate them at all, because I really didn’t have time.
I was observing data in the laboratory, experimenting countless times, with unsatisfactory results.
As soon as I arrived, I handed in my phone, so no one could contact me at all.
Naturally, she couldn’t get through.
