"You two jinxes are the reason I'm living this kind of life! Otherwise, I'd be drinking at home right now!" He threw the noodles into the pot.
"Now look what's happened, I have to serve you all. What have I done to deserve this!"
"I want to know what sins I have committed!" Chen Jianing looked at her surroundings and felt that she would rather be dead. She ate only one full meal a day and sometimes didn't even have a sip of water all day.
In order to survive, she eventually made a dirty deal with those beggars.
She felt that Song Weidong must have found out something, because he had been looking at her with disgust these past few days.
Just a month ago, they were incredibly affectionate, often going out to eat at restaurants. To outsiders, they seemed like a loving couple.
She was so poor that she had to fight over even a sip of noodle soup. She chuckled to herself, mocking herself for being punished.
You shouldn't ruin other people's marriages. As the saying goes, "A beautiful beginning leads to a tragic end," does that mean you're doomed to a bad end in this life?
"Get over here! Time to drink the soup!" Song Weidong yelled at them.
Cao Guifen, who was in the corner, raised her hand; she hadn't eaten or drunk anything for two days.
Her current situation is even more difficult than when she was in the hospital. At least when she was lying in the hospital bed, someone would give her a bowl of porridge so that she wouldn't starve to death.
Her cloudy eyes were fixed on her son's direction; he was going to starve her to death!
She had raised her children with great difficulty, only to end up like this. Her tears had dried up, and all she could do was wail and moan.
Song Weidong used his chopsticks to put all the noodles in the pot into his bowl, leaving only a few strands. He ignored them and sat in the corner to eat his noodles, eating heartily without fear of getting burned.
Hearing groaning sounds from not far away, why isn't that old thing dead yet?
Now we don't give her water or food, and at least we don't have to smell the stench anymore!
A fleeting image flashed through Cao Guifen's mind: her legs had been healed by her daughter-in-law, she was no longer paralyzed in bed, and she could speak again—
The son earned a lot of money, but he was unwilling to tell his wife. It could be said that the whole family kept it a secret from Lu Zhixia!
This led her to believe that the family had no money and continued to live a miserable life, while her son and grandson were spending lavishly and enjoying themselves outside.
Especially since her son had an affair and was having an affair with Chen Jianing—
The image gradually faded, revealing her son devouring noodles, and Chen Jianing ladling soup with a spoon. Their destitute state made her think the scene she had just witnessed was a hallucination.
"This lousy place! How can you even fit in here!" Brother Biao and his men came over, and with a wave of his hand, the two men beside him grabbed Song Weidong and pinned him down.
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Song Weidong immediately guessed who it was. Just as he was about to speak, a rag was stuffed into his mouth.
Brother Biao stomped on his back, yelling, "Behave yourself!"
Then he looked up at Chen Jianing, the once charming and alluring woman now reduced to a beggar. He shook his head helplessly; this woman was finished. Then he pointed at her face and said...
"I'm taking this person with me. Don't you dare call the police!"
"I won't report it!" Chen Jianing trembled with fear. She recognized the voice as Brother Biao's, but the whole group was masked.
If I call out "Brother Biao" now, I might get taken away with him. They look like they have bad intentions, and it would be a terrible situation if I went there.
Thinking of this, she hugged her daughter and kept backing away.
Brother Biao moved his foot away. "Alright, take him away!"
Song Weidong was pulled up, and he began to struggle, unable to speak, only able to make a "woo-la-woo-la" sound.
Lying in the corner, Cao Guifen stretched out her hand, watching her son being dragged away out of the corner of her eye. All she could manage to utter was a soft "ah-woo".
After they left, Chen Jianing sat on the ground with a sigh of relief. Now that they had been taken away, what would become of her future?
Looking at the daughter in his arms, he realized that perhaps the only thing he could do was to exchange her for some money.
So she wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes, got up from the ground, and resolutely left with her daughter.
When Cao Guifen saw that they had left, all she could do was utter "ah ah!"
Chen Jianing turned around and said coldly, "You're neither my mother nor my mother-in-law, so your death here has nothing to do with me. If you feel aggrieved, then go and take your son's life—"
Cao Guifen was panting heavily, her eyes wide open!
Chen Jianing led her child toward the city under the cover of night, stopping any passing vehicles with her hand.
