The winter in City A is very cold. Li Wenqi wrapped up his father's new down jacket and walked step by step towards the coastline.
Li Wenqi, a senior in high school, met Wu Wencheng, who was 15 years older than him, through social software. He was very warm. At this time, Li Wenqi was fascinated by him and couldn't find the answer. Li Wenqi gradually trusted him and was defenseless.
It wasn't until the first threat came down that he realized that he had fallen into a carefully woven web. Wu Wencheng grasped the weakness of his sexual orientation and took advantage of loopholes in the rules to press forward step by step. In the past three years, he proposed breaking up countless times, wanted to escape, and saved enough money to hide and work in other places, but he was dragged back into the abyss time and time again by the threat of "exposure."
The kindness of the instructor secretly recorded, the distressed tone of his parents, and the gentle comfort from his sister, these glimmers of hope once gave him hope. But Wu Wencheng's caution and ruthlessness made all requests for help in vain, and those "useful" evidences were vulnerable to prejudice and calculation.
He envied his classmates' freedom and his sister's "normality". He spent countless late nights questioning himself: Is sexual orientation a punishment from God?
When the sea touched his ankles, he took off his down jacket that smelled like sunshine, folded it neatly and placed it on the rocks. The white shirt swayed in the darkness, like a bird with broken wings.
This is not an escape for the coward, but a relief after all the strength has been exhausted by malice.
I hope every Li Wenqi can grasp the outstretched hand, and I hope every young person can remember: There is a gap between people's hearts, and there may be an abyss behind enthusiasm. Be more considerate when meeting people, and don't let regrets happen again.
Purpose: Be on guard against others and never let tragedy happen again
