Spending the Rest of My Life with My Country

Liu Qiuxing was originally named Lin Qiu. She grew up in a family that favored boys over girls: an irresponsible father, a mother blinded by love, and a grandfather who loved watching the drama unfold. Her uncles bullied the weak and feared the strong, while her aunt by marriage took pleasure in picking on her. She thought that if she just kept her head down, she could leave the family for good once she went to university. But everything suddenly blew up in the second semester of her eighth-grade year.
