“That’s what she taught me ever since I was young. I was born to support my brothers alongside my parents when I became successful in the future. Only when my brother was better off would our entire family be better off. That’s why she’s never cared about whether I lived or died. My high school and university tuition fees were funded by Jingyan.”
Nangong Nuan raised her eyebrows. “You’ve known Li Jingyan for such a long time?”
“I’ve known him since the third year of junior high. At that time, he had just joined the military base and was on a mission in the suburbs of Sea District. While fighting with the enemy, he fell off the cliff behind the mountain in the suburbs. At that time, Sea District wasn’t that big. The valley in the suburbs was very humid, and there were poisonous snakes around it. I often went there to catch snakes and pick herbs to sell at the pharmacies in the city when we were short on money. I accidentally saved his life that day. He kept in touch with me because I saved his life. After learning that my mother would not let me go to high school, he became my benefactor.”
It was said that misfortune was often a blessing in disguise. Her greatest fortune in life was saving Li Jingyan, a man who loved her, spoiled her, and held her closely in his heart.
Sze Lingyun’s entire face softened as she thought about Li Jingyan.
She was a very beautiful girl who met the typical beauty standard. A girl like her, even if she did not say or do anything, could still leave people with a very good impression of her.
What family could have given birth to a girl like this who was neither pretentious nor snooty? Should she not be the little princess of the family?
If this was the past, Nangong Nuannuan would have thought that there was not always much connection between children and their parents. However, after experiencing what happened between Jiang Shuwan and Zhong Qianqian, she knew that in this world, all parents loved their children. Even if their love came in different forms, or was deep or shallow, it was still something real. Their children were their blood, so of course they cared for them.
Even if Chi Yang’s eccentric mother was extremely selfish, she at least cared about her son.
Sze Lingyun had said that she almost died in a car accident. Her mother obviously believed her, yet still did not car. In the end, she asked Sze Lingyun, “Does she have a heart?”
After feeling the warmth of the Nangong family, Nuannuan knew that in this world, most parents loved their children, and even if they did not love them, it was rare to be able to not care about one’s own child’s death.
If a parent could not only not care about their child’s potential deaht, but even gloat in their faces…
Sze Lingyun must have a strange pair of parents.
Nuannuan could not let her go back home alone.
Since Li Jingyan was Chi Yang’s brother and Sze Lingyun was Li Jingyan’s girlfriend, Sze Lingyun’s business was her business.
They soon reached the Wu residence. As Nangong Nuannuan got out of the car, Captain Zhou of the criminal police unit was already leading a group of police officers to the main entrance of the Wu residence.
Elder Wu stood at the entrance with his crutch. Although he was already an old man, he had the aura of a single man holding a fortdown against ten thousand men.
Elder Wu and Wu Pingting were stunned when they saw Nangong Nuannuan alight from the police car.
Wu Pingting immediately ran up to Nangong Nuannuan and asked, “Nuannuan, why are you with them? What are they trying to do?”
Nangong Nuannuan did not want the Wu family to misunderstand, so she explained. “We encountered a car accident on the road.”
