Ruan Sangning followed Ruan Dad all the way back home from the hospital. Her legs were trembling as she walked. Ruan Dad was so timid that he didn't even want to take the bus for one yuan, not to mention taking a taxi.

After walking for more than an hour, the two of them returned exhausted to an old-fashioned community. Due to long-term exposure to wind and sun, the exterior wall paint had peeled off.

Pushing open the unit door and walking in, the dark corridor exuded a musty smell. Ruan Sangning followed Ruan Dad with his head down and climbed up an unknown number of floors. He stumbled several times because it was too dark and made Ruan Dad scold him.

Father Ruan angrily took out the key, inserted it into the door, twisted it a few times, opened the door, and walked straight in without caring about his daughter who was still "amnesiac" behind him.

"Husband~ are you back? Oh, dinner is just ready. Hurry up... uh, is Ning Ning back too?"

Ruan Sangning's cheap stepmother was sitting on the sofa facing her as soon as she entered the door, eating oranges. When she saw Ruan's father coming in, she immediately stood up and stepped forward to greet him with a smile.

However, the smile on his face turned stiff when he saw Ruan Sangning, and he chatted nonsense for a while before getting into the cramped kitchen with anger.

Wu Ling (cheap stepmother) brought out a few dishes of stir-fried vegetables, placed them on the dining table and started filling them with rice, without looking good on Father Ruan.

With a "dong" sound, Wu Ling forcefully placed a bowl of rice in front of Dad Ruan, who had washed her hands and was sitting at the table preparing to eat. Maybe she thought this was just to express her dissatisfaction, but Dad Ruan didn't accept this.

Father Ruan stood up and slapped Wu Ling on the face. Wu Ling covered her face and looked at Father Ruan in disbelief.

"Hey Ruan Jianjun, have you eaten explosives? Do you dare to attack me?"

Father Ruan raised his hand and was about to slap her again. Seeing Wu Ling's panicked look, his hand stopped in mid-air, and he retracted his hand with a cold snort.

"Wu Ling, I'm telling you, watch out for your troll. Next time I catch her doing something bad behind her back, don't blame me for not missing our old relationship."

"You don't miss the old relationship? What happened to my Qingqing? What's wrong with her? Compared to your cheap and brain-dead biological daughter, Qingqing treats you better than his damn biological father!"

Wu Ling's eyes widened angrily, and she pointed at Ruan Jianjun, who was accusing her head and face. The spittle flew everywhere and made Ruan Sangning, who was walking hungry, lose his appetite.

Ruan Jianjun grabbed the rice bowl and smashed it out. The bowl of rice shattered on the door of Ruan Qingqing's room, and ceramic dregs and some rice were also stained on the door.

Ruan Qingqing was frightened when he heard it in the room. He finally plucked up the courage to open the door and come out. He was so frightened by Ruan Jianjun's bowl that he burst into tears.

Ruan Jianjun glared at the door fiercely: "You still have the nerve to cry!"

"You are so vicious at such a young age. Even if you don't like Ning Ning, I won't blame you. Of course I won't kiss you if you are not a parent."

"But what did you think when you pushed her down the stairs? Aunt Liu next door saw it clearly, and now she is gossiping everywhere!"

"You pushed me and you ran away. You pretended not to know anything and went to the hospital to cry for who?"

"I was annoyed enough before, but now it's better. This damn girl can't remember anything! I still have to pay the advance medical bills to that guy from the Gu family! It's expensive and not easy to worry about!"

Wu Ling actually knew early on that Ruan Sangning was pushed down by Ruan Qingqing. She thought that no one would notice the black man, and she also wanted to cover up for her daughter.

As for Ruan Sangning, he is dead, and it does not matter if he is not dead. A weak persimmon cannot cause much trouble in the hands of mother and daughter.

It's a pity that the dead old woman next door saw it and kept talking nonsense. Now Wu Ling could understand why Ruan Jianjun was angry, and immediately comforted Ruan Jianjun with a red and swollen face and a smile.

When Ruan Jianjun first scolded Ruan Qingqing, Ruan Sangning thought that Ruan Jianjun still cared about his daughter and would definitely stand up for her in such matters.

But the fact is that she really overthinks it. Ruan Jianjun just feels that his family's scandal has been exposed, he can't lose face, and he has to spend money, which makes him even more depressed.

A selfish person like him who only loves himself, no matter what happens or who he faces, is not as important as himself. So he wasn't standing up for Ruan Sangning, he just felt sorry for his own face and money.

Ruan Sangning felt a dull pain in his heart, which was probably Ruan Sangning's true mood.

Ruan Sangning clenched his hand: "Ning Ning, don't worry, since I'm here, I will definitely vent your anger on your behalf, and I won't let them bully you again."

The Ruan family is in a state of chaos, and Gu Chen is now standing at the door of the Ruan family depressed. The broken iron door was not very soundproof at all, so he could hear clearly what Ruan's father just said.

He was deceived by Ruan Qingqing from the beginning. Ruan Sangning didn't fall down by himself but was pushed down by her.

Knowing that he was being used as a weapon, Gu Chen clenched his fists tightly and wanted to rush in immediately to question Ruan Qingqing.

But when he thought about why Ruan Qingqing pushed Ruan Sangning, he felt angry again.

It must be what Qingqing's sister said. Ningning is always well-behaved on the surface, but she is always mischievous behind the scenes, so it is not entirely Qingqing's fault that Qingqing pushed her this time.

Thinking of Ruan Sangning's aggressive and ruthless face in the hospital, Gu Chen became more determined in his thoughts.

Since both Ruan Qingqing and Ruan Sangning were at fault, it didn't matter who he helped. Besides, bystander Qing felt that he needed to go home and have a good rest. Worrying about these two sisters day by day made him tired and thin. With this in mind, Gu Chen went down the stairs and left without looking back.

Dad Ruan's anger also subsided a little, and he sat on the bench and wheezed for a long time.

"Ruan Qingqing, starting from today, your weekly pocket money is only one hundred yuan. I will give you more when you behave well."

Ruan Qingqing almost collapsed when she heard Dad Ruan's words in the room.

What can one hundred yuan be enough for?! She couldn't spend three hundred yuan the previous week, and she always bullied Ruan Sangning to take away her pocket money. Now Ruan Sangning can't fool her anymore and he only has one hundred yuan, so why should he starve to death?

"Jianjun, look at one hundred yuan..."

Wu Ling also wanted to plead for Ruan Qingqing, but was so frightened by Ruan Jianjun's look that she shut up, tremblingly picked up the pieces on the ground and stopped talking.

Finally, Ruan Jianjun turned his attention to Ruan Sangning and looked up and down several times at Ruan Sangning, who looked strange everywhere today.

"Since you are not feeling well, you should stop going to school and stay at home to rest. I will help your aunt, and your pocket money will not change. I will let your aunt make up for what I have deducted from you."

Ruan Sangning nodded. Her identity here is just a sophomore student in an ordinary high school. She definitely wants to go back to class, but this is an apocalyptic novel. Why go to school when it is more important to survive and collect supplies.

She was worrying about how to properly ask Ruan Dad to promise her not to go to school, when Ruan Dad spoke up on his own.

She was all happy, but Wu Ling was so angry that she wanted to scream and cut Ruan Sangning's throat with ceramic shards.

Ruan Sangning naturally saw her dissatisfaction and deliberately walked over and extended her hand.

"Auntie, give me money."
