After My Parents Gave My College Fund to My Older Sister, I Cut Ties with Them

I saved up 500,000 yuan over four years for my study-abroad expenses. Overnight, it was gone. I cried and demanded an explanation from Mom, but she said, "We can earn more. Your sister is marrying into the Zhou family. If she doesn't have any dowry, they'll look down on her!" That night, Jiang Chuan, my boyfriend of six years, broke up with me.

"I've waited four years for you."

"You always have so many excuses. You and your sister are both girls, aren't you? I can't believe your family treats you so unfairly."

"Lin Wei, I've had enough!" He stood up and disappeared from my world without looking back.

At the same time, a message popped up on my phone. It was Mom's social media post: "We sent our beloved daughter off in grand style. As parents, we've finally taken care of one big thing!"

Looking at my sister's radiant, happy smile, I quietly wiped away my tears, bought a ticket to Shanghai, and removed my SIM card. If I'm always the one who gets sacrificed, then I don't want a family like this anymore.
