Hospital.
"No! No! Let me go! Let me go!!!"
Yunli, who had just come out of the bathroom, was startled and quickly ran towards the bed.
Then she saw Xu Pan'er lying on the hospital bed, crying and shouting with tears all over her face, trapped in a nightmare.
Yunli hurriedly comforted him softly, "It's okay, it's okay.
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid.
You have been rescued, you don't have to be afraid anymore.
It’s okay, it’s okay.”
The gentle voice was like a spring breeze, blowing into Xu Paner's ears and gradually stopping her crying.
The terrifying and sickening nightmare slowly dissipated in the spring breeze, and she slowly woke up.
What came into view was a face that looked a little worried.
Xu Paner recognized this face.
He was the one who saved her when she was in despair and collapsed.
"Yun..." Suddenly, Xu Pan'er sat up and hugged Yun Li, "Miss Yun... It hurts so much... I'm so scared..."
Hearing the despair and fear in her words, as well as her uncontrollable trembling, Yunli reached out and gently patted her back: "It's okay, it's okay. Those who hurt you and frightened you have been arrested."
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Paner gradually calmed down.
Then she realized that she was hugging Miss Yun tightly. She quickly let go of her and blushed: "I...you...I..."
After stuttering a few times, she suddenly realized: "You said that Wang Quezi was arrested?"
Yunli shook his head: "Not only him.
And your parents, your brother, and that old woman Shi who sold you to Wang the Lame."
Hearing this, various emotions flashed across Xu Paner's face.
There was joy, sorrow, hatred, and shock at one moment, and finally it slowly settled into laughter with tears: "Good catch! Good catch!"
She said good catch, but her eyes were full of sadness.
Yunli felt sad when he saw this: "If you want to cry, then cry."
"Cry? Why should I cry?" Xu Pan'er wiped away her tears stubbornly, her voice filled with hatred, "They are not worth my tears!"
Taking a deep breath, she asked, "Did they say anything when the police arrested them?"
Yunli was also present at the scene at that time and knew for sure.
But she didn't know if it was appropriate to say it at this moment, and was a little afraid that it would irritate Xu Paner.
When Xu Paner saw Yunli's expression, she knew that her parents and brother must not have said anything good when they were arrested.
But she had her suspicions, so she wasn't surprised: "I guess they must say that I was born and raised by them.
They said that my life was given by them.
They have the right to deal with me.
They are probably still blaming me now, blaming me for being sold and then being rescued to bring harm to them."
Yunli opened his mouth: "You... don't be sad..."
"I'm not sad." Xu Pan'er said calmly, "When they tricked me into going home and sold me, I no longer considered them my family.
During the time when I was imprisoned by Wang Quezi, I even thought about killing them after escaping.
But now I think it's not worth it to sacrifice my life for them."
At this point, she suddenly asked, "Miss Yun, do you still mean to send me... to learn makeup and styling?"
Yunli was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
"That's good." Xu Pan'er smiled, "I've made up my mind. I'm going to learn."
In the eyes of her so-called family, she was just a tool to make their son live a good life.
Why?
She is also a human being!
Why can't she live a good life?
They felt she was unworthy and incapable.
But she was not what they wanted!
Not only does she want to live a good life, she also wants to live a good life that they dare not even dream of!
"Okay." Yunli nodded and smiled, "Then go learn."
Xu Paner's health deteriorated during this period of imprisonment.
After waking up and talking for just a short while, she felt a little tired.
Yunli saw it and asked her to have a good rest.
"Miss Yun." Before going to bed, Xu Pan'er asked, "Will they go to jail?"
Yunli nodded affirmatively: "Yes."
Xu Paner was very happy when she heard this: "How long will they be in jail?"
Yunli had known about these things before, so when she asked, he answered her very clearly: "The police discovered it during the investigation.
Your parents and younger brother used violence and drugs on you before selling you.
According to the criminal law, they will be sentenced to more than ten years in prison or life imprisonment.
The crime committed by that old woman is probably punishable by death.
As for Wang Quezi.
He knew that you were being sold, yet he still spent money to buy you.
This one offense could result in him being sentenced to less than three years in prison.
Not to mention, he also committed the crimes of illegal detention and intentional injury.
These three charges are enough to keep him in jail for five or six years."
"Ms. Yun." Xu Pan'er looked at the white ceiling in the ward. "Do you think my family members deserve a life sentence?"
Yunli was stunned for a moment, then told the truth: "I don't know either, but I will ask my lawyer to do his best to help you."
"Thank you." Xu Paner closed her eyes.
Just when Yunli thought she fell asleep, she opened her eyes again.
"Ms. Yun, I want to change my name. Can you help me choose one?"
Yunli was surprised for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "Ningxi, I wish you peace and prosperity in the future, and a bright future."
After saying that, she took out her cell phone and typed out these two words.
"Ning Xi, Ning Xi." Xu Pan'er looked at the two words on the phone screen, her eyes slightly red, "Xu Ningxi."
Peace and prosperity, bright future.
Such a nice name will be her name from now on.
A name that belongs to her and is full of good wishes for her.
It was a name that belonged only to her, not filled with malice towards her, but with expectations and hopes for others.
Tears rolled down her cheeks, and Xu Pan'er was very happy: "Miss Yun, I like this name very much. Thank you."
Yunli smiled and said, "As long as you like it."
"I like it very much, I really like it." Xu Pan'er was so happy that she didn't know what to say, "Ning Xi, Ning Xi.
Peace and prosperity, bright future.
This name with such a good meaning will be my name from now on.
Miss Yun, please arrange for me to study after I am discharged from the hospital.
I will definitely study hard and will not let you down in your blessings and expectations of me."
"We can talk about this after you recover." Seeing Xu Pan'er so happy because of a name, Yunli felt a little uncomfortable, "If you want to be discharged from the hospital and study soon, you should rest now.
Instead of being like now, forcing yourself to keep going even though you are clearly not feeling well."
Xu Paner knew that Yunli was right, so she quickly closed her eyes and rested.
