Chapter 56
Same day.
Zhang Guilian was disfigured.
Guan Nan went to the police station.
That night, someone was waiting under the clock tower.
That night, five people entered the police station.
Hecangyuan and Tangzi Lane are destined to be sleepless tonight.
"How could you be so foolish?" After learning what had happened, Zhen Xiaoya appeared at the police station accompanied by Qi Yang. Her legs were still weak and tears were streaming down her face. "If something really happened to you, how would I explain it to your mother?"
After finishing the last course, Guan Nan hid a knife and went alone into Tangzi Alley.
A small fruit knife almost cost Zhang Guilian her life.
At this moment, Guan Nan sat expressionless in the mediation room, next to a police officer who, after understanding the situation, explained to her that the current behavior was called "intentional injury".
Sitting opposite them were Guan Weimin and his family of three. Zhang Guilian was in tears, and Lin Zhaozhao opened her mouth several times but then shut up.
"No, she has to go to jail," Guan Weimin said firmly, ignoring the police officers' attempts to reason with her. "She needs to be taught a lesson! My fellow police officers, she almost killed someone, just like her crazy mother; they both have mental illnesses!"
It would have been better if Ran Mingju hadn't been mentioned, but as soon as Ran Mingju was brought up, Guan Nan immediately threw her water glass away.
The police officers couldn't keep an eye on him, and water splashed all over Guan Weimin, leaving him in a very sorry state.
The conflict was further escalated.
Not long after, a captain came in and recognized Guan Nan from Tianfu Bridge last time.
Guan Nan's skin bristled as she coldly stared at Zhang Guilian, saying each word clearly, "What exactly did you say to her that noon on May 29th?"
That day was the day Ran Mingju jumped into the river; the location of the incident matched up.
The captain narrowed his eyes warily, staring at Zhang Guilian, whose face was full of panic and helplessness, and recalled the blind spot in the surveillance footage that he had pulled up that day.
At that moment, the mediation room separated all the people.
The police officers took Guan Nan and Zhang Guilian into separate interrogation rooms.
After a long while, Zhang Guilian came out of the interrogation room. She stopped crying, but her face was extremely pale.
Guan Nan didn't know what the police had said to her. The person who had stubbornly insisted on making her spend the rest of her life in jail and being taught a lesson by Brother Zhang suddenly seemed to have had her soul replaced.
The other party agreed to a settlement.
The price was never to see her in Fuling again.
Guan Weimin was convinced that she was a devil, just like Ran Mingju, a devil who didn't care about her own life.
Listening to his words, Guan Nan suddenly felt an urge to laugh out loud. She knew that Guan Weimin didn't like her, so she wasn't sad or upset. She just found the person in front of her, who was playing the role of a kind father and speaking earnestly, somewhat ridiculous.
“I’ll buy you a ticket. You can go wherever you want from now on. I can’t control you anymore. Consider the ticket as the best I can do.” Guan Weimin said this so casually, showing his heartlessness.
She had no attachment to Fuling, and now she was even more rebellious.
So, one ticket and one backpack.
Guan Nan left Fuling.
Perhaps to avoid any unforeseen complications, Guan Weimin bought her a ticket on the spot that very night and sent her from the southernmost part of the country to the northernmost part.
Guan Nan did not resist and simply let him exile her.
Perhaps even Ran Mingju could not have imagined that the city she longed for would eventually become her daughter's place of exile.
Guan Nan sat in the old, green metal train, the carriage filled with the smell of instant noodles. She leaned against the window and the wall, dozing off and falling asleep repeatedly.
Actually, before going to Tangzi Lane, she went to Fuwai.
Bai Lichen ate a bowl of oden.
The radish is very, very hot.
It was so hot that it made my oral glands go numb.
She squatted by the roadside with a mouthful of radish in her mouth and cried for a long time.
Even now, as the fear and trepidation belatedly made her feel waves of terror, she still couldn't swallow the scalding hot radish.
This time was no different from before; the boy spread his hand and pressed it against her mouth, showing no disgust whatsoever.
Guan Nan slept one sleep after another, and dreamed one dream after another.
After an unknown amount of time, the train finally arrived at "Green Camphor Station" after a swaying and rattling ride.
After getting off the train, she was all alone with nowhere to go, so she sat there in the unfamiliar station square for a very long time.
Even now, she still couldn't bear to spend money. She stayed in a small hotel for one night, and the next day she started looking for cheap rooms everywhere. She rented a room that night and slept on a hard wooden board with her schoolbag as a pillow in the empty room.
When Xiao Zhiban fell into the river, Guan Nan didn't buy a new one, but called Zhen Xiaoya to let her know he was safe.
She didn't check her grades when they came out. It wasn't until the day she filled out her college application that she went to an internet cafe and filled out her application for Green University.
The admission notice was delivered to Hecangyuan by express courier.
Guan Nan left her household registration booklet, which Zhen Xiaoya signed and sent over several cities.
In her freshman year, Guan Nan joined the student union and took the CET-4 (College English Test Band 4) under the persuasion of the senior students who greeted the new students.
The following year, I passed the CET-6, computer exam, CPA, and teacher qualification exams.
In her junior year, while her classmates were busy preparing for civil service exams and graduate school applications, Guan Nan, with an IELTS score of 8.5, went to Russia as an exchange student.
In her senior year of college, Guan Nan joined a company through the fall recruitment process. This company was a professional study abroad agency, and her experience and academic qualifications were a perfect match.
After Guan Nan started her internship, she naturally transitioned from an intern to a full-time employee after completing her graduation defense and receiving her diploma.
While everyone else was busy with graduation trips, she had already become a working professional with a nine-to-five job.
