At the sa ti, on the internet, a video of a girl being beaten went viral. The video was a bit blurry, clearly from years ago.
But overall it was quite clear, showing a thin girl being ganged up on and beaten by nearly twenty people, both male and female. So onlookers even joined in and kicked her.
The arrogant faces of the group, along with the mocking sounds from bystanders, made the bullied student seem all the more pitiful.
She could be seen crouched in a corner, clutching her head, curled up tight, her disheveled hair obscuring her face. Her trembling body and pleading voice were visible:
"Please, don't hit ."
"I'll do whatever you want after this, just don't hit ."
The girl's desperate cries begged them, shaking her head violently, only to receive more vicious beatings in return.
This was a post shared by a blogger, who said it was contributed by a fan. The post read:
I'm 21 years old this year, not from a wealthy family. I was born into a very ordinary ho, my parents' occupations were not respectable - they collected scrap tal.
Because my family collected scrap tal, they mocked , called a 'garbage collector,' gave all sorts of nicknas, ordered around, and bullied .
The person in the video isn't , it's my classmate. I haven't seen her in many years and can't even rember her na anymore.
Compared to her, I seed quite fortunate, because in class, she was bullied far more than .
High school, which should have been a wonderful ti, brought endless pain and despair.
That year, one of the more powerful girls in our class led a group straight to her, grabbing her hair and slamming her head against the wall.
Before she could react, everyone pounced on her like wild animals, beating her, while onlookers laughed and said she deserved it.
And I was the one forced to record the video, crying while filming it.
They said if I didn't obey, I'd end up like her. They wanted to record this 'happy mont.'
Happy? That just showed their evil, vicious faces.
After that, the once quiet girl beca even more silent and withdrawn. Then one day, I never saw her again.
And I beca the target that everyone bullied. Why am I sharing this video?
Because my younger brother is now going through the sa thing. Recently, he ca ho covered in injuries, refusing to go to school.
That's when I learned he had been bullied too. My brother is a very well-behaved child, quiet and not very socially skilled.
I was furious, so I wanted to share this, to let people know that your actions can truly ruin soone's life.
Also, I sincerely apologize to the girl in the video. Although I didn't participate, as a bystander, I didn't dare speak up or help her. This has always been a thorn in my heart. I hate my own inability to act, but I was too afraid.
I'm sorry for sharing your video, but I hope relevant authorities will take this seriously. Too many people have been hurt, you and I were both victims.
After the post went up, it instantly beca one of Weibo's top trending topics, with over 300,000 comnts.
"I can really relate, I was bullied in middle school too and eventually dropped out."
"I'm so sorry, when I was young and ignorant I participated in things like this."
"I was bullied too back then, so I transferred schools."
"It was really terrifying, the year I was bullied I was constantly afraid and worried. They even made wait at the school gate for them, do you know how desperate that feels?"
"That face in the video looks so familiar!!"
"Even though it's blurry, I feel like she looks familiar too."
"Now that you ntion it, the girl did look quite pretty."
"I hope netizens won't try to identify her."
"Yes, let's not cause her further trauma."
"I hope the governnt takes this seriously and strictly controls this kind of behavior. If discovered, there should be severe punishnt!"
Netizens were all discussing it fervently, as the incident struck a chord with many.
At this ti, Ji Nian had just gotten off the plane and was riding in the sa car with Yu Luobai and the others back to their building.
He Yi saw the viral video on the trending topics and was montarily stunned, staring at her phone in dismay.
"Oh my god, how terrible."
Ji Nian turned to her and asked, "What is it?"
He Yi handed her phone over, saying, "The viral Weibo video of a girl being beaten by nearly 20 people as she begs them to stop. She was so young."
Ji Nian took the phone and watched the video, her whole body shuddering as she fixated on the beaten girl with eyes wide. A sharp pain pierced her chest and her gaze beca dazed.
"Please, don't hit ."
"I'll do anything you want after this."
"That crying sounds really tragic," Peng He comnted from the driver's seat.
"Yeah, that poor girl was so badly bullied. The post said she was constantly targeted," He Yi lanted, though she couldn't shake the feeling that sothing was off, though she didn't know what.
Sitting next to her, Yu Luobai noticed Ji Nian's face had paled considerably.
Ji Nian stared blankly at the phone, realizing that the person in the video was Ji Xiaonian, the original owner of this body, as a teenager.
She didn't know why, but despite the blurry video and having no mories of that life, her heart imdiately recognized this as the original owner.
The excruciating chest pain made it hard to breathe. The phone slipped from her trembling hand and fell onto the car floor.
He Yi quickly picked it up, saying, "Sis, be careful, I just got the screen repaired."
Ji Nian struggled for air, pounding her chest forcefully, trying to ease the overwhelming anguish ravaging her body.
"Nian Nian, what's wrong?" Yu Luobai watched her pained expression with alarm.
He Yi was also stunned, seeing her pound her chest. He grabbed her hand, asking "Ji Xiaonian, what's happening?"
Ji Nian felt her chest tighten unbearably, the searing pain mixed with a suffocating pressure. Suddenly, a sweet, tallic taste surged up her throat.
"Nian Nian!" Yu Luobai watched in horror as the woman coughed up fresh blood, panicking and yelling, "Quick, quick! To the hospital!"
He Yi was equally shocked, frantically wiping the blood with tissues, his hands shaking uncontrollably.
Peng He turned to see her passed out, blood at the corners of her mouth. His eyes went wide with confusion before he anxiously sped up, driving rapidly towards the hospital.
Yu Luobai held the shuddering Ji Nian tightly, deeply afraid without understanding what was happening.
