It was getting darker and darker.
Ning You followed Ning Wan to the foot of a residential building.
This is an eight-story building with mottled black mold marks on the exterior walls.
Ning Wan turned on her phone's flashlight and led Ning You upstairs. She kept glancing back to remind Ning You, "Watch your step on the stairs."
Ning You looked around and asked, "The stairwell light is broken, why don't you call the property management to fix it?"
The Lu family is financially powerful, so Ning You, who married Lu Chen, naturally enjoys a good standard of living.
But what's the difference between what she said and "Why don't they eat meat porridge?"
Ning Wan said helplessly, "Sister, this is an old neighborhood, there's no such thing as property management here."
Upon hearing this, Ning You pursed her lips noncommittally.
As they passed the sixth floor, Ning Wan specifically reminded Ning You to be careful: "There are many cardboard boxes and cans here, be careful not to fall."
Just as she finished speaking, Ning You stepped on an aluminum can.
Fortunately, she was wearing flat shoes, so she was fine.
"Who is it! How can someone be so inconsiderate? How can such a small staircase be piled with so much trash?"
Ning Wan helped her up: "She's an old lady who lives here alone. She's old and has no children, so she makes a living by selling scrap."
Ning You fell silent...
...
Finally, the two arrived at the 7th floor.
Ning Wan took out her keys from her pocket and prepared to open the door.
Turn the key and turn the doorknob.
Before she could even open the door, Ning You heard two sounds coming from inside the house, one after the other.
"Mom!~"
"Wanwan!~"
Ning You stared in disbelief at the two figures, one large and one small, that appeared before her.
Despite the short distance, it felt like they were in a high-speed race against time.
They insisted on vying for the spot, wanting to be the first to rush to Ning Wan's side.
The man showed no sign of yielding and was not considerate at all.
Ultimately, thanks to her exceptionally long legs, she successfully beat the child to her feet and stood before Ning Wan: "Wanwan!~"
Aman was still wearing his cooking apron.
Holding a spatula in his left hand and a spoon in his right, he grinned foolishly at Ning Wan.
Ning Yanshu, who arrived a step later, was furious: "Aman, you're so annoying! You don't know how to respect the elderly and care for the young at all."
He pushed Aman away and clung tightly to Ning Wan, crying, "Mommy~ Xiaoshu missed you so much~"
Ning Wan bent down and hugged Ning Yanshu in her arms: "Mom has only been out for half a day, how come she has become so spoiled?"
Looking at the two being affectionate, Aman's eyes revealed a hint of envy.
He also wanted to get closer to Wanwan.
He held hands and hugged Wanwan.
But Wanwan always said that men and women should not touch each other.
He didn't understand. Wasn't Xiaoshu a boy too? ...
...
After cuddling for a while, Ning Wan patted Ning Yanshu's bottom and urged, "We have guests at home today, come down quickly."
Ning Yanshu looked up and, upon seeing Ning You following behind Ning Wan, exclaimed in surprise, "Why are there two mothers?"
Ning Wan and Ning You are, after all, sisters.
If you look closely, the two do have some similar facial features.
Hearing Ning Yanshu's childish words, Ning You couldn't help but laugh: "Then guess which one is your real mother?"
"Aren't you being childish?" Ning Wan rolled her eyes at her, speechless, and then said to Ning Yanshu, "This is Mom's older sister. Xiaoshu can just call her Auntie."
Hello, Auntie!
"Good boy..."
Ning You reached out and patted Ning Yanshu's head, then took out a card from her bag: "Here, this is a gift from your aunt to Xiaoshu."
Ning Yanshu glanced at Ning Wan, and only dared to accept the gift after she nodded in confirmation: "Thank you, Auntie."
Ning Wan then introduced Aman to Ning You.
"He's the friend I just told you about, who's temporarily staying at my house. His name is Aman."
Ning You, who had been all smiles and enthusiasm just moments before, suddenly became serious and solemn.
She concealed the safety hammer in her right hand behind her back and extended her left hand.
Before Ning You could introduce herself, she heard Aman shout, "Hello, Auntie!"
Ning You froze instantly as her outstretched hand hung motionless in mid-air.
She looked at Aman, her eyes full of inquiry.
But Ah Man's expression was completely innocent.
He didn't even understand why everyone always looked at him that way.
Ning Wan felt that she could completely understand Ning You's feelings at this moment.
Aman's address of "Auntie" was strikingly similar to her initial "Mom" when they first met.
Ning Wan put Ning Yanshu on the ground, then handed him the bag: "These are gifts from Mom for you and Aman. Go to the sofa and open them to see if you like them."
Children are forgetful.
With the gift in hand, Ning Yanshu no longer cared about arguing with Aman.
He happily grabbed Aman's hand and turned to go to the sofa to unpack the gifts.
Ning You pulled Ning Wan aside.
She tapped her temple and asked in a low voice, "Is there... something wrong with him here?"
“Hmm.” Ning Wan said, “Aman has amnesia and can’t remember anything from before. She’s also a bit mentally challenged, and her thoughts are naive and simple like a child.”
The hand holding the fire hammer behind his back loosened slightly.
Ning You heard Ning Wan say again, "Xiao Shu got lost before and was almost kidnapped by human traffickers. It was A Man who saved him and brought him back. Out of gratitude, I took him to the police station to report the case. During the time he was found by his family, he will stay here temporarily."
Ning You lowered her eyes and silently put the fire hammer away...
