Five years ago, by a twist of fate, she gave herself to a certain man. She lost her innocence and her identity, the position of the eldest daughter of the Jiang family was usurped, and overnight, s...
Seeing Lu Yuan feeling so guilty, Jiang Ranran said nothing more and carried Sanbao into the car.
Lu Yuan drove the mother and daughter home, and neither of them spoke along the way.
The car drove out of the brightly lit luxurious area and headed towards the poorest part of the city.
A luxury car worth millions drove into the poor and dilapidated street and stopped at the entrance of a narrow alley.
Jiang Ranran took Sanbao out of the car, and Lu Yuan followed. "The car can't drive in. There's no light in the alley. Let me take you back." He was afraid of danger.
"No need. The alley isn't deep. We'll be there at the end." Jiang Ranran declined and urged him to get in the car. "Go ahead."
"Ranran..." Seeing the small and dilapidated houses around, Lu Yuan didn't expect Jiang Ranran to live in such a place.
He couldn't imagine how the once delicate and innocent eldest daughter of the Jiang family had endured it.
"You take the children and pack up your things. I'll find you another place to live."
I know that Lu Yuan feels sorry for me. Although this place is a bit simple, my children are all around me and the family is together. No matter where I live, I will be happy. Even if it is shabby, it is still a home.
The hard life in the countryside over the years has taught her to survive in any environment.
The original pride and pretentiousness were worn away by the hardships of life until not even a trace remained.
"I'm already very happy to meet you today, don't bother yourself with me anymore."
"You can endure hardship, but what about the child? If not for yourself, you should also think about the child. Are you willing to let the child live with you in a place like this? Don't you feel bad?"
How could Jiang Ranran not feel distressed?
Whenever the roof leaked and the cold wind howled, she would hate herself for being so useless and unable to give the children a good life when she saw them shivering with cold.
That's why she tried so hard to find a job. She was grateful for Lu Yuan's kindness, but she would use her own abilities to let her children live a good life.
"Lu Yuan, I am very grateful that you are willing to help me, but I am no longer the same as I was five years ago. I cannot repay your help." She has nothing and is just an ordinary person.
"Stay away from me. It's good for both you and me."
The Lu family is a famous family. It will not benefit Mr. Lu Yuan in any way to associate with someone like her. He might even be dragged down by her.
"Of course, I don't need you to pay me back. I did it willingly. No matter what you say, it's useless."
"Why won't you listen to my advice?" Jiang Ranran exposed her own scars. "Five years ago, I was drugged and lost my innocence. I was considered a slut by everyone. Aren't you afraid of getting involved with me?"
"I know you're not that kind of person. You were drugged."
Lu Yuan was shocked when he first saw the newspaper. He wanted to find Jiang Ranran to ask her clearly, but was told that she had left and her whereabouts were unknown.
He believed that Jiang Ranran was not a frivolous and dissolute person, and that he must have been plotted against by someone, so he asked someone to investigate the matter.
Sure enough, he found some clues.
"I have the surveillance video from the bar at the time. Although it was tampered with, I found someone to restore a small clip."
Because the evidence was insufficient, he kept it all the time, and he always believed that he would meet Jiang Ranran again one day.
Jiang Ranran never opened the video clip that Lu Yuan sent her.
Because she had already known who drugged her and framed her, but she just didn't want to face the fact that her best friend would harm her.
When she saw Song Chao and Chen Nian together that day, she was still comforting herself and didn't want to believe it, but the facts were right in front of her and she had no choice but to believe it.
When they got home, Dabao and Erbao were already asleep, so Jiang Ranran cooked the remaining half bag of noodles for Sanbao.
Sanbao was very hungry and finished his bowl of noodles quickly. He held up his small bowl and asked her to get another one.
Her daughter was happy with her meal, and she was happy too. All the hard work and unhappiness of the day disappeared at this moment.
While coaxing Sanbao to sleep, Jiang Ranran vaguely heard some movement at the door.
She lived in a large courtyard, and could hear the sounds from the courtyard clearly in the house.
It sounded like someone walked into the yard, not knowing which way to go, pacing back and forth and then stopping.
Jiang Ranran was not sleepy at this time, so she looked out the window into the yard, wondering who would come here for a walk in the middle of the night.
The person standing in the yard was none other than Jiang Zhen.
After the dinner, he was still thinking about Jiang Ranran, so he asked his secretary to find out Jiang Ranran's residence. Because he didn't know which room Jiang Ranran lived in the courtyard, he stood in the courtyard without moving.
Just as he was thinking about leaving, the door in front of him opened and he saw Jiang Ranran walking out.
In the restaurant, Jiang Ranran turned her face to the side, so he didn't see it carefully. Although it was dark, it was still very clear.
The daughter in my memory was noble and elegant. Although Jiang Ranran in front of me looked the same, her temperament was completely different.
Knowing that Jiang Zhen came to see her not to reminisce about the past but to have something to say, she took him to a nearby abandoned park for fear of disturbing the children's rest.
There were some abandoned fitness equipment in the park. Jiang Ranran sat down on a stone bench. Seeing that Jiang Zhen didn't move, she knew that he disliked the bench being dirty, so she wiped the dust off the bench with her sleeve.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang." He completely ignored Jiang Zhen's strange look.
"Ranran, you've changed a lot." In the past, Jiang Ranran would never touch anything on the roadside, let alone wipe the dust with her sleeves. Seeing her skillful movements, Jiang Zhen felt a little reluctant.
"Have you been living well in the countryside these years?"
How are you? It's just a fake.
"I'm fine. No need to worry about me, Mr. Jiang. Mr. Jiang, you came to see me in the middle of the night, wouldn't you just be concerned about me? Just say whatever you want to say." From his attitude towards her in the afternoon, she knew that Jiang Zhen would no longer recognize her as his daughter. He only had eyes for Jiang Cha Cha.
Since he said he was an irrelevant person, he still came here to be polite to me, obviously he had a purpose.
Jiang Zhen didn't expect Jiang Ranran to see through his thoughts. Since he was exposed, he just pointed it out directly.
"The one standing next to you today is your daughter, right? I know it's not easy for you to raise three children. I can give you enough money to support you and your children."
"What are the conditions?"
"Go back to the countryside and don't appear in front of Cha Cha again. Cha Cha said she doesn't want to see you."
It turned out to be for his precious daughter.
Just because she's an eyesore, she has to get out of here? That's totally unreasonable.
"What if I don't agree?"
"Of course, I'm doing this for your own good. Why do you have to stay here?"
"My children need a good education, and I can support them with my own abilities. I don't need charity from anyone."
"Okay, I can go to the surrounding cities and find the best schools to ensure my children receive the best education."
I didn't expect Jiang Zhen would give so much for Jiang Cha Cha.
If it were a few days ago, she might have agreed, but now, "I have found a job here and I can't leave."
