In my previous life, I never shared these things with my relatives, which led them to join in on the cyberbullying against me. But this time, before my father could escalate the situation, I had already informed my relatives about his true nature.
A few of my aunts chatted with me for a while, expressing their dissatisfaction with my father and offering their support. They believed that he was just being dramatic and that we didn’t need to accommodate him. I nodded, acknowledging their sentiments.
When my father emerged from the restaurant, his expression had improved significantly, though there was an unmistakable glimmer of smugness in his eyes. It seemed he had prepared a video that distorted the truth.
Just when I thought he might cause more trouble, he suddenly spoke up. “I’m going to stay at your brother’s house for a while.” He added, “I’m tired and want to take a break.” With that, he clasped his hands behind his back and strolled away leisurely.
I understood that my sudden assertiveness had made him wary. He feared that the upcoming cyberbullying would turn against him, so he chose to retreat for the time being.
Watching him walk away, I felt a heavy weight in my heart. The battle ahead would be tough.
Once he arrived at my brother's house, he wasted no time launching an attack against me. He posted a video deliberately portraying himself in tattered clothes, looking pitiful as he ate leftover food. Behind him lay the remnants of a feast.
This stark contrast instantly made him appear as if he were living a miserable life. Unlike in my previous life when he timed his posts carefully, this time he rushed to share it first, fearing I might interfere.
To prevent running out of data, my brother even bought a data package for our dad.
Before long, people who followed Dad's account discovered the video and shared it. The video quickly went viral and made it to the trending list.
Netizens flooded into Dad's comment section, starting to attack me.
"This old man has such a miserable life!"
"This is what it means to be abandoned in old age; it's so pitiful."
"The children of this old man are truly heartless!"
"..."
The comment section was filled with insults, and Dad tearfully replied:
"She understands that I'm old and can't eat much."
This statement sent the commenters into a frenzy.
"What? Can't eat? So she makes the old man eat leftovers?"
"Is this person even human?"
"Get out here; I want to beat you up!"
"..."
Dad's video ignited a wave of emotions across the internet. The comment section was full of people cursing me. Dad lamented in the comments, saying he had worked hard all his life to raise his children, and now in his old age, he couldn't even have a warm meal.
The replies under that comment were all expressions of sympathy for Dad. I glanced at several accounts in the comment section; they were all fans following Dad. To prevent me from reporting them, they switched accounts to post their comments.
Soon, the video began to gain traction online. Netizens discussed digging up my personal information.
A netizen directly exposed my information in the comment section, and within ten minutes, he retracted it. I checked the IP address, and sure enough, it belonged to my brother. He didn’t even bother to hide his IP; it was as if he was directly telling everyone that he was my father's son.
Soon, my phone was bombarded with calls. They were filled with insults and threats. Although I had already died once, facing such online violence still made me feel uneasy. In my past life, I suffered greatly due to cyberbullying, which led to a car accident where I died on the spot. My father and brother took this opportunity to brazenly seize my family's property and live a blissful life with the money I won from the lottery.
All of this stemmed from my indulgence towards them. This time around, I wouldn’t be so foolish. I was determined to stand my ground against them.
