Chapter 7 Did this guy forget to take his medicine before going out?
The other side didn't receive such good treatment.
Let's go back to the night Ning Tang emptied the Ning family home and ran away.
After talking for a long time, Ning Xin still wouldn't budge, which made Ning's mother so angry that she wanted to hit her but also felt sorry for her. So she went to vent her anger on Ning Tang. As soon as she stepped out the door, she was stunned to see the empty space outside.
Except for load-bearing walls and large pieces of furniture that are inconvenient to move, almost everything is gone!
"Ning Tang!" Ning's mother shouted, her voice tinged with a panic she herself didn't realize, "What trouble are you causing now?"
"Everything outside is gone!"
I rushed to Ning Tang's room. The window was still open, but the person who should have been lying in bed was nowhere to be seen.
Ning's mother felt utterly disheartened. She ran to the room where she kept her jewelry and valuables, opened the safe, and found it completely empty, not a single item left.
Everything went black before my eyes, and I almost fainted.
Ning Xin, who was still sulking, rushed over when she heard the noise. She pushed open the door and saw the mess in the room, and her mind went blank for a moment.
"Mom, where did all our things go?"
“Where else could they have gone? That little slut Ning Tang ran off with them!” Ning’s mother’s eyes were red. “I knew she was no good. How dare she bring people in to steal things.”
In Ning's mother's eyes, it was impossible for Ning Tang to take these things away quietly by herself; there must be a group involved.
"No, we can't let her get away! Call the police right now, I need to catch this thief!"
By the time Ning Xin realized what was happening, her mother had already called the police.
Soon after, people from the Public Security Bureau and the Subdistrict Office arrived.
Director Liu glanced around the messy room and frowned, saying, "You mean, Ning Tang stole all these things from the house?"
"That's right, Director Liu, look! She even broke into the safe. All the gold bracelets and jewelry I've saved up for over ten years are gone. After supporting her for so many years, she didn't even leave me a single penny!"
"Take another look at this room. There are no signs of forced entry. She must have opened the door for the thief. Otherwise, how could a mere girl like her move all these things?"
Director Liu didn't rush to make a judgment. He carefully examined the safe and found no obvious signs of tampering. It seemed to have been opened with a combination lock.
Turning to Ning Xin, who had been silent from the beginning, he asked sharply, "Did Ning Tang really do all this?"
Ning Xin hadn't recovered from her rebirth yet; according to her memories of her previous life, this had never happened.
Could it be that she altered the original trajectory?
Ning Xin was somewhat uncertain: "I guess... right?"
Director Liu's eyes were filled with disbelief.
The Ning family is a well-known capitalist family in Shanghai. Recently, there have been rumors that the authorities are going to settle accounts with them. What a coincidence that, just before the settlement is about to begin, all their belongings have disappeared.
Besides, he had watched Ning Tang grow up since she was a child. She was usually too afraid to even speak loudly. Even if she had a hundred times the courage, she wouldn't do such a thing.
Director Liu and the others exchanged glances, and they all understood what was going on.
Without saying anything more, he simply said that he would let them know if there was any news, and then left with his men.
As soon as he stepped outside, he instructed his men: "Keep an eye on the Ning family. This looks like a staged drama. If you find that the Ning mother and daughter are about to leave Shanghai, notify the local street office immediately and make an example of them!"
Ningxin, who was inside the house, was unaware of this.
She had already packed her bags, ready to take the only money her family had to go to the Northeast Military Region to find her lover from her past life.
Ning Xin still remembers that in her previous life, after she married Xu Qiaofeng as she wished, she thought she would reach the pinnacle of her life, but reality gave her a slap in the face.
Xu Qiaofeng is a mission fanatic, spending only four or five days a year at home.
Even if he comes back, he will only stay in the guest room and will not touch her at all. Even if she is fertile, how can she give birth to a child for the Xu family, which has no heir?
Such a life was barely bearable, but Xu's second sister-in-law, Wenya, was no pushover.
She resented her for taking the position of Mrs. Xu from her cousin Lu Niannian and had been targeting her in private.
Ning Xin had no way to express her grievances and was preparing to write a letter to Xu Qiaofeng, who was on a mission in another province, to complain. Before she could even mail the letter, an officer named Zhang Yanfei appeared out of nowhere.
He subtly helped her compete with Wenya, and since everyone has a heart, they eventually confessed their feelings for each other.
Having tasted the pleasures of a man for the first time, and with Zhang Yanfei's skill in coaxing her, Ning Xin's mind was filled with thoughts of him.
Just when she was worried that the Xu family would find out about her affair, Old Mrs. Xu suddenly suffered a heart attack and died within a few days.
Then, overwhelmed with grief, Commander Xu also passed away.
This blow was too great for the Xu family to bear, and the family fell apart in less than half a month.
Xu Qiaofeng, who was in the evaluation stage, was affected and missed the opportunity, while Zhang Yanfei was chosen to be promoted two levels.
On the very night of her rebirth, she was discussing with Zhang Yanfei about moving to the capital, and he promised to marry her.
Who would have thought that after one night, she would open her eyes and return to her youth, and the official's wife she was about to get would fly away, making Ning Xin so angry that she almost vomited!
Having been given a second chance at life, she knew the future better than anyone else. The Xu family was only currently enjoying their glory, while Zhang Yanfei was steadily rising in rank.
This time, she's determined to get the position of official's wife!
She's going to Northeast China to find Zhang Yanfei. Her man is so outstanding; she needs to secure her place in advance!
Ning's mother was unaware of these plans. She vehemently opposed Ning Xin leaving, but no matter how much she threw a tantrum, she could only watch helplessly as her daughter walked away.
Ning Xin had just arrived at the train station and was still imagining what she would say to her lover when she was suddenly interrupted by a loud shout from behind.
"Ning Xin, stop right there!"
She turned around and almost dropped her luggage. Two officers from the neighborhood committee wearing red armbands were walking quickly toward her, their faces serious and intimidating.
"What...do you want with me?"
"What are you doing?" one of the women grabbed her shoulder. "Your mother just called the police saying things were stolen from the house, and you turn around and run away? That's too much of a coincidence. Come back with us and explain yourself!"
These days, everyone hates capitalists.
No matter how Ningxin explained, the two men remained unmoved and dragged her outside.
When she got annoyed by his nagging, I slapped her again.
The blows made Ning Xin's eyes see stars.
After being locked up overnight, she was dragged out of the solitary confinement cell early in the morning. On the way, she encountered Ning's mother, who had also been arrested. Ning's mother looked very different from the beautiful woman she had been the night before.
Her hair was a mess like weeds, her clothes were covered in shoe prints, and her eyes were swollen like walnuts. When she saw Ning Xin, she immediately burst into a howl.
"Xin Xin, you need to take good care of yourself from now on."
"Once you leave here, hurry up and don't come back! Go find that little bitch Ning Tang and take all our things back!"
Before she could finish speaking, Ning's mother was dragged next door to get her hair cut; soon she would be paraded through the streets as a typical example.
Last night in solitary confinement, she had already tasted the bitterness of resistance, and now she just wanted to suffer less.
Soon, a crowd gathered at the alley entrance, pointing and whispering about Ning's mother.
They threw rotten eggs and cabbages at her without a second thought, and some even threw diapers that had been soiled by children at her, which landed right on Ning's mother's face.
Ning's mother didn't dare to cry loudly, because as soon as she opened her mouth, the smell would seep into her nose.
As Ning's mother was led away in the procession, Ning Xin clenched her fists, repeatedly promising herself that she would first go to the Northeast to find her lover and then return to avenge her mother.
So, she took all her money and boarded a train to Northeast China.
As soon as I got off the train, I headed straight for the military compound, following my memories from my previous life.
Before she even reached the door, her furtive behavior was stopped.
"Who goes there? No one is allowed in without a letter of introduction."
"I'm looking for Zhang Yanfei."
"What's your relationship to Captain Zhang?"
"I am his girlfriend."
"Nonsense, Captain Zhang is a playboy who doesn't care about anything, why would he possibly want you as a girlfriend?"
The guards looked Ning Xin up and down.
After several days of long train journeys, my clothes were wrinkled like rags, as if I had been pulled out of the mud.
He didn't believe her at all and scoffed, "If you keep arguing like this, I'll arrest you!"
Ningxin's wallet was stolen on the train, leaving her penniless. If she were kicked out, she would have nowhere to go.
She panicked.
Suddenly remembering that Xu Qiaofeng also lived here, she quickly said, "Then go and call Xu Qiaofeng out. I am his fiancée."
Captain Xu just got his marriage certificate yesterday, and this morning he even took his new wife out. Ning Xin's words sounded like something a lunatic would say to the guards.
One minute she's Zhang Yanfei's girlfriend, the next she's Xu Qiaofeng's fiancée.
This person probably forgot to take their medicine before going out.
But fearing offending someone, I still made a phone call to Commander Xu's home.
Wenya answered the phone, and upon hearing this, she finally found a place to vent the anger she had been holding in all morning.
The guard was thoroughly scolded, hung up the phone, grabbed the culprit Ning Xin's clothes, and chased him away from the compound gate.
