The young Xu Yuyu died away suddenly for mental depression
郁闷于心，青春之花骤然凋谢
Yesterday, I unintentionally saw one news that a female prospective university student Xu Yuyu, an eighteen-year-old girl who was born in Linxi, was cheated of 9900 yuan which should be her tuition. Sadly, she died away for sudden cardiac arrest. What a heart-wrenching and deplorable news! In fact, she has been admitted to Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications. And a life in the ivory tower is waiting for her!
昨天，无意间看到一则新闻：18岁临沂准大女学生徐玉玉被骗9900元学费，两天后心脏骤停离世。令人无比心痛和叹息，她其实已经被南京邮电大学录取，马上就可以开始象牙塔的生活！
As far as we know, Xu Yuyu was in good health and had no major diseases when she was alive. According to her relatives, teachers and her classmates, she was a good girl. Not only did she do well in school but also in life, character, behavior in conducting herself in society where she won everyone’s consistent recognition and praise!
据了解，徐玉玉生前身体健康，无重大疾病，而且是是亲人、老师以及同学眼中的好孩子，不仅仅是成绩非常好之外，而且在生活上、性格上、为人处世上获得大家的一致认可与赞扬！
Xu Yuyu came from a poor family. And her father did odd jobs outside and her mother couldn’t work to support the family because she was handicapped. The 9900 yuan is a large sum of money for her family. Originally, Xu Yuyu received a notice from the related education department concerning on the bursary issuing on August 18. However, her family got an unknown call that the bursary of RMB 2600 would be released and that day was the deadline on August 19. As a result, Xu Yuyu believed without any suspection until she found out she was cheated.
徐玉玉家境贫寒，父亲在外打零工，而母亲身残无法工作养家，9900元对于她家来说是一笔巨款。本来8月18日徐玉玉曾接到有关教育部门关于助学金发放事宜的通知。而19日下午她们家就接到陌生电话说是有2600元助学金要发，并且当日就是发放截止日。所以她深信不疑，直至发觉被骗。
That evening, she went to the police with her father. However, Xu Yuyu fainted suddenly on their way back to home. Afterwards, she was sent to the hospital for rescue. However, a storm may arise from a clear sky! On the evening of August 21, Xu Yuyu passed away with regret.
当天晚上，她和父亲去派出所报案，然而在报完案回家的路上，徐玉玉突然晕倒，不省人事！随后，她被送进医院抢救。然而，天有不测风云！21日晚，徐玉玉抱憾离世！
The poor man’s child shares the household burden earlier. Even though, Xu’s mother comforted her with the sayings, “Just take it as a lesson. We can raise money again, and we're OK to afford your tuition.” But Xu Yuyu knew that this lesson was so luxurious that her family couldn’t bear it. Consequently, the usual optimistic and outgoing Xu Yuyu had disappeared. What’s worse, she was in despair after she was cheated. She cried again and again: “Our family is in such a bad condition. Why, why do they try to cheat me!!!”
穷人的孩子早当家。尽管她母亲安慰她说—“全当花钱买了个教训，学费没了再给你凑，咱家供得起”。然而她深知这个教训太奢侈了。所以往常乐观开朗的她已经不复存在，被骗后的徐玉玉非常绝望！她自己一遍又一遍哭喊着：“咱家都这样了，为什么还有人来骗我！”......
It is a tragedy. And who is to blame for it? The cheat? Xu Yuyu’s low tolerance? The bad guys who did information arbitrage? Or…...
这样的悲剧，怪谁？怪骗子？怪徐玉玉承受力太低？怪背后倒卖信息的坏蛋？或是......
Actually, life is very short! If you are alive, there is something! If you are gone, there is nothing! Therefore, try to open your mind and don’t get yourself into a dead end no matter what happens!
人生，其实很短暂！人在，才有得谈！人不在，所有一切都不在！所以，不管发生什么事情，要打开心灵，不要把自己逼向绝境！
