sisters
The next day, Ji Yunding sat at the dining table, and carried out her habit of "hating to talk to people she didn't like", and did not respond with more than three words throughout the whole process.
Obviously, the words were flawless and impeccable, and Zheng Nuo's wording did not sound unpleasant. However, the man in front of him, whose name Ji Yunding had not remembered at all, made Ji Yunding want to get up and leave with every word he said.
He was too purposeful. He didn't mention a word, but every word he said was to use Zheng Nuo to get close to the group. From time to time, he would insert a few words to praise Ji Yunding, but even though it was clearly a compliment, Ji Yunding always felt that he was condescending because he thought he was older.
"Nono, I know I've let you down, but you see, I'll give you whatever Yanyan wants. I've reflected on myself a lot over the years..."
Hearing him say the word "Nono", Ji Yunding felt a little annoyed, but he couldn't do anything directly.
Click.
Oh, I accidentally broke Nuonuo's iron spoon.
"Nono, you two can chat first." Ji Yunding secretly put the broken spoon into his pocket and looked at Zheng Yan who had been unable to speak since a while ago. "I want to talk to my sister about school matters."
"What? Who wants to be with you..."
Before Zheng Yan finished speaking, he suddenly felt the view in front of him shift and become higher.
Ji Yunding casually carried Zheng Yan onto his shoulder and said, "Let's go. This way, they will be able to talk more easily."
Zheng Nuo said yesterday that he would take Zheng Yan away for a while at the right time. No matter whether it was the right time or not, Ji Yun would definitely not be able to stay there anymore.
Besides, Zheng Nuo had said that in some things, as long as the goal is achieved, the process does not matter. Coincidentally, one of Ji Yunding's best things is to provide solutions.
"Okay, since there are no outsiders here, let's not beat around the bush." The man smiled with some contempt in his eyes, "If I don't agree, Yanyan won't go with you."
This was Zheng Nuo's biggest headache. When the custody was divided, Zheng Nuo was nine years old, just past the age limit for him to choose between his father and his mother.
According to their economic situation and ability to support their children, both sisters should have been awarded to their father, but Zheng Nuo knew that her mother needed her.
Mom hadn't done anything wrong, but she looked so lost for some reason just standing there.
Zheng Nuo was not very sensible at this time, and didn't quite understand what was going on. She just felt that this was wrong.
"Mom, if I go with you, will I become a burden to you?"
“…”
The woman who was confused just now lowered her head and looked at the little girl who looked up.
Her story was very ordinary - a housewife who rose from humble beginnings with her husband. However, her husband might have been unable to bear the sight of her seeing him at his most miserable, or perhaps, as he often complained, he felt that she could not give birth to a son. Whatever the reason, he eventually chose to abandon her.
"Yanyan is the younger sister, she can live a better life with her father. I am the older sister, I can take care of my mother."
Zheng Nuo said this.
The woman had always known that her daughters were intelligent and precocious, and she had never treated them as ignorant children.
She squatted down and looked at Zheng Nuo: "If you have made up your mind, I will do my best to help you grow into a good child."
It turns out that she worked very hard to do so.
But to this day, Zheng Yan still cannot forgive Zheng Nuo for abandoning her, so from elementary school to college, she has been chasing after her sister and doing some childish and provocative things.
Zheng Nuo felt that he was indeed wrong, so he didn't confront Zheng Yan directly. The two of them have been getting along awkwardly until now.
It was not until before the college entrance test that Zheng Nuo realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Zheng Yan's values.
How can you speak so proudly about taking advantage of privilege to commit fraud?
However, at this point, the two of them were no longer in a relationship where they could sit down and talk properly. Therefore, Zheng Nuo decided to take a long-term view and create an opportunity to repair the relationship with Zheng Yan first.
Although it is still somewhat difficult for Zheng Nuo to talk to the old fox in the officialdom, she is determined to accomplish this task.
………………
On the other side, Ji Yunding casually placed Zheng Yan on the bed in Zheng Nuo's room and helped her straighten her skirt.
"You know what? If I had released your recording on the day of the entrance exam, you might have gone to jail." Ji Yunding squatted down and adjusted the hem of her skirt, saying, "Although you are not yet an adult, nowadays, we tend to adopt a stricter approach when dealing with matters related to strange stories and weird things."
"Are you here to threaten me?"
"No. I mean, Nuonuo begged me not to spread the recording. She said you were just ignorant." Ji Yunding raised his head and looked at Zheng Yan, "As for me, I didn't care about you at all at the time, so I agreed."
"That guy... who wants her to take care of him."
Although Zheng Yan said this, his tone was obviously softer.
"You two really have a good relationship."
"Ah? Who has a good relationship with her? You..."
"I'm not very good at listening to others, so I prefer to watch what others do." Ji Yunding interrupted Zheng Yan, "I think that action is a person's final vote."
"... Stop it, you don't even know how to tie a bow."
Zheng Yan was speechless when he saw Ji Yunding fiddling with the bow on the hem of her skirt for a long time but failing to tie it.
Fortunately, this gave her an opportunity to change the subject.
Ji Yunding let go of his hand and sat next to Zheng Yan: "Sorry, I have never worn a skirt, and neither do my sisters."
Although Ji Yunding had thought about how nice it would be to have a younger sister, as he thought about it, he felt that this was a bad idea.
Just because she wanted a sister, she expected another person to be in this situation with her...
Afterwards, Ji Yunding sincerely felt some inexplicable happiness for his non-existent sister - it was great that she didn't come here.
It might sound a bit strange to like a non-existent sister, but it did help Ji Yunding a lot when he needed comfort.
"There's nothing to be sorry about." Zheng Yan leaned over and tied the ribbon neatly. "I don't wear such a troublesome thing on my own accord."
"Then why wear it?"
“It looks good.”
Ji Yunding always felt a little conflicted, but this was not her focus at the moment.
"So, what exactly do you want to bring me here for? If you want to lecture me, forget it."
Zheng Yan folded his hands over his chest and looked at Ji Yunding scrutinizingly.
Even though they grew up in completely different environments, Ji Yunding still sensed some similarities between Zheng Yan and Zheng Nuo.
After all, they are sisters...
"Nothing, I just wanted to show you this. As for the decision, you make it yourself."
………………
"Nono, if you want to see Yanyan, just come to our house often."
No matter what Zheng Nuo said, the other party just refused to give in and looked very confident.
That’s right, in terms of chips, Zheng Nuo is at a complete disadvantage.
In the final analysis, what the other party wants is "relationship", and maintaining a relationship requires "intercourse". Fundamentally speaking, this is in conflict with Zheng Nuo's goal.
Zheng Yan himself had some resentment towards Zheng Nuo, and he was brought up spoiled by his father, so it was not easy to take action against him.
Zheng Nuo knew from the beginning that this was not an easy task, but even so, it had to be done.
After all, she is her sister.
In the current situation, we can only rely on Ji Yunding who can always break the rules.
Zheng Nuo didn't like uncertain plans or things that were uncertain. It had become her habit to complete the preliminary work before starting the formal work.
But because of this, it is inevitable to give up some plans after evaluating the risks and the probability of success. For a long time, Zheng Nuo felt that he was always doing things that he was 100% sure of, and he couldn't get motivated at all.
After meeting Ji Yunding, Zheng Nuo felt that his common sense didn't seem to be so useful anymore.
In Ji Yunding's eyes, it seems that nothing is impossible to do, no difficulty is impossible to solve, and no one is impossible to surpass.
The most important thing is that she can say things that make people want to believe. If there is someone who is not familiar with Zheng Yan enough to arouse her vigilance, but has a chance to convince her, Zheng Nuo thinks it must be Ji Yunding.
"Okay - Her Royal Highness the Princess has arrived, and the meeting is suspended." Ji Yunding walked out of the house and clapped his hands, startling the two people who were pretending to be nice.
Zheng Yan followed Ji Yunding with her head down, tightly holding a thick stack of papers in her hand - that was the "battle plan" that Zheng Nuo had made for her.
"...I've had enough of you." Zheng Yan slammed the pile of papers onto the table in front of Zheng Nuo, his voice a little hoarse, "I've told you before, I don't need you to be so self-righteous and do good for me anymore."
"Zheng Yan..."
"It was the same when I was a child and it's the same now. Why do you make decisions for me without even asking me? I hate you. I hate you so much."
Zheng Yan covered his face and sobbed. Zheng Nuo looked up at Ji Yunding in panic, feeling a little confused.
Ji Yunding smiled and gently rubbed Zheng Yan's head: "Sister, it's Nuonuo's fault that she can't speak properly. You can't learn from her."
"I understand." Zheng Yan muttered, sniffed, raised his hand and pointed at Zheng Nuo, "From today on, I want to live with this guy."
"Yanyan, don't be so willful." The man opposite said with a gloomy tone and a ferocious look on his face, "I won't tolerate your willfulness now."
Zheng Yan was frightened and trembled, but Ji Yunding gently held her hand and comforted her, and said, "Nono, express your position."
Zheng Nuo slapped the table and stood up, leaning forward and looking down at the person opposite him: "Be careful with your words, do you want to fight?"
She has endured it for a long time.
This actually scared Ji Yunding - it was the first time she saw Zheng Nuo so anxious.
It would definitely not work to just leave it alone, so Ji Yunding quickly said, "Wait, it hasn't come to that yet. We still have this."
As he spoke, Ji Yunding took out his old mobile phone that he had never replaced, played the recording, and watched the man's face become increasingly uglier.
"But in this case, Zheng Yan..."
"An Jing. My sister said that she doesn't want you to make a decision for her." Ji Yunding squeezed Zheng Yan's hand again and turned his head to look at her, "Right?"
Sisters are always similar in some ways and at some times. This inseparable blood relationship and the awkward care for each other link their childhood and youth.
"I... I don't care! Whether I'm arrested or imprisoned, I'll be released sooner or later, but..."
Zheng Yan knew that although she was spoiled, she would not have a share in the family property or connections. She seemed to have the easiest life, but in fact, she was the pet trapped in a cage.
"I've had enough of this, and I've had enough of it a long, long time ago."
