Chapter 385 The Coward's Black Moonlight Witch 16
The neighbors around them began to point fingers at them, and her relationship with Tan Zhidong became strained because of the child, and quarrels became commonplace.
In the end, she could no longer bear such a life and made a difficult decision to send Tan Shi back to her hometown and let He Baifeng help take care of her.
She and Tan Zhidong moved to the city and started a new life.
Over the years, she rarely returned to her hometown because she was also avoiding it. She didn't want others to say that she had a stupid daughter, nor did she want others to know that she was an irresponsible mother.
Tan Jing saw Wang Yaling staring at Shen Xinran in a daze, and a wave of uneasiness surged in her heart. She walked straight forward and asked with a smile: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Yaling smiled and shook her head, "I'm fine."
But that smile was tinged with bitterness.
After settling down in the city, she doubled her love for Tan Shi and poured it into Tan Jing. They were of similar age and both had smiling eyes.
But when she saw that Tan Shi had to calculate the sixty yuan so clearly with her, her heart couldn't help but ache.
This was her daughter whom she had carried for ten months and held in her arms for three whole years.
After the little episode with the black cat doll, Wang Yaling spent the next two hours helping Shen Xinran choose clothes.
"Niuniu, look at this and see if it looks good. Mommy will buy it for you."
"Niuniu, do you like this? Mommy will give it to you..."
But Shen Xinran kept shaking her head. In her heart, the clothes her grandmother made for her were the best looking.
Seeing this, He Baifeng sighed, "It's good that you have the intention. Since Niuniu doesn't like it, forget it. Don't waste the money."
…
Night falls.
Wang Yaling came out holding a quilt, looking apologetic, "Mom, there are only three rooms in the house, so I can only ask you to sleep on the sofa."
He Baifeng frowned and asked, "What about Niuniu?"
Wang Yaling smiled and said, "Niuniu can sleep with Jingjing."
He Baifeng nodded and said calmly, "Okay, I'm used to it. It doesn't matter where I sleep."
Wang Yaling extended her hand to Shen Xinran and smiled gently, "Let's go, Mom will take you to Jingjing's room."
Shen Xinran nodded, ignoring the hand that Wang Yaling extended to her, and just followed behind Wang Yaling with her schoolbag in her arms.
Wang Yaling knocked on the door first, then said, "Jingjing, Niuniu will sleep with you tonight."
Tan Jing had just finished a shower, her hair still wet. She smiled excitedly, "Okay."
Wang Yaling was about to leave when she heard Tan Jing exclaim, "Oh, what a cute cat."
But after he finished speaking, he sneezed three times in a row.
Wang Yaling turned around and saw Shen Xinran taking a black cat out of his schoolbag. Her heart tightened, "Where did this cat come from?"
Shen Xinran answered subconsciously: "I raised it."
Wang Yaling looked at Shen Xinran with a hint of embarrassment in her eyes. "Jingjing has rhinitis, so we can't keep small animals at home. Can you put this cat in the corridor?"
Shen Xinran hugged the cat tightly in his arms, frowning, "No, he will be stolen by someone else."
After taking a shower, Tan Shuai came out of the bathroom and rolled his eyes. "You're just a broken cat, who would want you?"
Shen Xinran's expression was serious. "This is not a broken cat. It has an owner, and that owner is me."
He Baifeng naturally stood on Shen Xinran's side. She stood up from the sofa and gave Tan Jing a cold look. "I also raised this cat. I brought it here. It's just a case of rhinitis. What's there to be squeamish about? Do you dislike this cat, or do you dislike me, an old lady?"
Tan Jing lowered her head with a look of grievance, tears in her eyes.
Wang Yaling sighed, "How about this, Mom, you and Niuniu sleep in Xiaoshuai's room, and Xiaoshuai sleeps on the sofa."
Tan Shuai was about to retort: "Why—" What.
But when he saw Wang Yaling's cold eyes, he swallowed his words and said reluctantly: "Okay."
But after Tan Shuai returned to the room, he put all the things he thought were important into the cabinet. After confirming that everything was safe, he let Shen Xinran and He Baifeng in.
He Baifeng just glanced at the lock on the cabinet indifferently, without any emotion on her face, and Shen Xinran didn't even look at the cabinet.
He Baifeng put her luggage beside the bed and took out a change of clothes. "Niuniu, I'm going to take a shower. If you're sleepy, go to bed first."
The Tan family's layout of three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms is enough for the family to use on weekdays.
Tan Zhidong and Wang Yaling are used to taking a shower in the master bathroom, while Tan Jing and Tan Shuai use the guest bathroom and never feel inconvenienced.
But today, with the addition of Shen Xinran and He Baifeng, the guest bathroom started to become crowded and everyone had to start queuing and waiting.
Chen Xinran was afraid of heat, so the moment she came back, she asked He Baifeng to take her to wash, which resulted in He Baifeng being the only one who had not taken a shower yet.
After seeing He Baifeng enter the bathroom, Tan Shuai said harshly to Shen Xinran, "Even though we are related by blood, don't expect me to call you sister. I only have Tan Jing as my sister."
Shen Xinran didn't have any special expression, just said "Oh".
This made Tan Shuai feel like he had punched cotton, and he felt uncomfortable.
He could only continue: "Anyway, I'm putting this here. If you dare to bully her, I will never let you go."
After saying that, he turned around and left in a domineering manner, but because he didn't look at the road, he bumped into the door frame.
Despite this, he quickly adjusted himself and walked to the sofa, as if the embarrassment just now had never happened.
Chu Bojian didn't know what to say for a moment. It seems that fools are also good and heartless.
Shen Xinran took out the black cat doll she had bought that afternoon and said with a smile, "Look what this is. I spent a full forty on it, and even borrowed twenty from my grandma to buy it."
Chu Bojian glanced at the doll in Shen Xinran's hand and asked, "You spent sixty yuan to buy a doll like this?"
Shen Xinran grinned, "Don't you think it looks a lot like you? Now I give it to you."
Chu Bojian looked at the doll that Shen Xinran handed over with a strange expression, "Didn't you buy anything for yourself?"
Shen Xinran shook his head, "No, I didn't see anything I liked."
Chu Bojian asked, "Then why are you so nice to me?"
Shen Xinran held her chin with both hands, smiling and saying, "Of course it's because I like you."
Chu Bojian was stunned. "You...you like me?"
Shen Xinran nodded, "In my heart, you rank third!"
Grandma comes first, chick comes second.
I don't know if her little chicken is doing well now.
If there weren't so many chicks, she would definitely take them with her.
Chu Bojian suddenly felt a warm feeling in her heart, as if she had drunk a glass of strong wine. This was the first time that someone placed her in such an important position in his heart.
