Song Shiting walked inside.
Nguyen Han Min was holding a rough burlap sack, and fine beads of sweat were dripping from his forehead.
"Where did you guys go? There was a heavy bag here, and I couldn't find anyone to help me with it."
Ruan Qingling said, "Dad, I was just attacked outside."
Ruan Hanmin paused for a second before asking, "How are you? Are you alright?"
Ruan Qingling said, "Luckily, Shi Ting was by your side, otherwise you definitely wouldn't have seen your daughter."
Ruan Hanmin frowned and said, "Be careful, how can there still be people wielding knives?"
Ruan Qingling looked at Ruan Hanmin with lingering fear: "Yes, we almost didn't make it back."
Ruan Hanmin asked, "It's good that you're alright. Did you call the police?"
Ruan Qingling shook her head and said, "I've encountered this kind of thing many times, but I didn't call the police today."
Ruan Hanmin's expression changed several times: "What do you mean by 'several times'? How could there be several times?"
Ruan Qingling said, "Yes, I've encountered several people who wanted to kill me in town. Luckily, I have a strong constitution, otherwise I would have died long ago."
Ruan Hanmin's face stiffened slightly as he said, "Help Dad put these things away. I'll ask if anyone saw them."
Ruan Qingling said, "We should ask them properly."
Nguyen Han Min walked very quickly and was out in no time.
Ruan Qingling glanced at Song Shiting.
Song Shiting nodded and then followed him out.
Seeing Song Shiting leave, Ruan Qingling suddenly found it amusing.
She and Song Shiting seemed to have developed an unspoken understanding. With just a glance from her, he would give her a glance in return, and it was as if they both understood what the other wanted.
Looking back suddenly, she felt incredibly happy.
Ya Ya was just frightened, and now she's wrapped her arms tightly around her neck.
Ruan Qingling felt that children like to watch fights, but they get scared when they see knives.
It must have been tough for Ya Ya, who had to live in constant fear with her.
When Ruan Qingling thought about this, she wished she could find the person behind it and beat them to a pulp.
But now that the mystery is so big, she wants to know what exactly happened.
Ruan Hanmin found Zhao Mei outside.
Upon seeing him, he asked, "What happened?"
Zhao Mei's face was grim. She glared at him and said, "What? What's wrong? Don't you know anything else? Is this all you can say?"
Ruan Hanmin glanced at it and said in a low voice, "Don't try to steal a chicken and end up losing the rice instead."
Zhao Mei's eyes were cold as she asked, "Are you not even going to live your life anymore?"
Ruan Hanmin was about to say something when Zhao Mei yelled at him, "Shut up! If you say another word, don't blame me for being impolite."
Ruan Hanmin was speechless after hearing her words.
Zhao Mei walked forward.
Nguyen Han Min also followed along.
Song Shiting emerged from around the corner, his gaze deep.
He only heard the part about "trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead," and nothing else.
Zhao Mei is such a shrewd woman.
When Nguyen Han Min returned, he looked unwell.
Zhao Mei's expression worsened.
Ruan Dongxue had just come in from outside.
When Zhao Mei saw Ruan Qingling and Ruan Dongxue, she turned around and scolded them: "Where did you go? I've been looking for you for ages."
Ruan Dongxue pouted, as if she wanted to say something.
Zhao Mei continued, "Next time you go out, you must make it clear, otherwise I'll search for you for ages and still not know where you are."
Ruan Dongxue was afraid of Zhao Mei, so she could only nod and say, "I know."
Ruan Hanmin said, "It's getting late, the room still needs to be washed."
Watching the family of three act like they were putting on a show, Ruan Qingling said, "I'll go take a look."
She carried Ya Ya inside.
The room was the same one she used to live in at home, but it was a little smaller than the room where the Nguyen My Anh sisters lived.
There is a bed inside.
The bed was made by Nguyen Han Min himself; it was barely big enough for two people, and too small for a child.
I basically need to hold him to sleep...
Therefore, Ruan Qingling only realized the problem at this time.
She was about to speak.
Zhao Mei said, "It's very clean. Just wash the floor and it'll be fine."
If you remove some of the clutter, it'll still be passable.
However, the blankets on the bed need to be changed.
Ruan Qingling said, "You haven't slept in so long, you must change into clean clothes."
Ruan Hanmin said, "Meiying's quilt was just washed, so we'll use hers tonight."
Zhao Mei was about to refuse, but Ruan Hanmin called out, "Dongxue, go get a quilt for eldest sister."
Ruan Dongxue glanced at Zhao Mei.
Thinking that she would definitely buy a new bed when her daughter came back, Zhao Mei said, "Go and get it."
Ruan Dongxue then went and brought over a thin quilt.
Song Shiting looked at a small place that was less than one square meter in size.
There was only a bed and a table inside.
A window.
Before they arrived, this place was used to store miscellaneous items.
To Ruan Qingling, this place looked like a narrow alleyway with a wooden roof.
The original owner's life in this family was quite ordinary.
Ruan Qingling made the bed and put Ya Ya on it.
Ya Ya held Ruan Qingling's hand.
It means that I need my mother to be with me.
Song Shiting stood by the window, looking outside.
His brows furrowed with a hint of coldness.
The window faces the alley outside, but it seems to lead to a dead end.
There is a plum blossom-shaped window at the corner, and outside there are many wooden strips.
Seeing that Song Shiting was looking out the window, Ruan Qingling asked, "What's wrong?"
Song Shiting said, "There are many wooden strips outside, and once a fire starts, it will easily burn."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Qingling's heart skipped a beat.
She picked up Ya Ya and walked over to take a look.
In the alley outside, there were piles of wood on the left and right.
If you pour gasoline on it and then set it on fire, that place will be the first to suffer.
Considering what has happened these past few days, Ruan Qingling felt that this was possible.
But... her lips suddenly twitched.
She hasn't gotten what she wants yet.
She said, "What is meant to be will be, and what is meant to be will be."
Song Shiting asked, "Are you scared?"
Ruan Qingling: "With you here, I'm not afraid."
Having spent so much time with Song Shiting, she had come to understand this man better. No matter what happened, he would never abandon her and her daughter.
She spoke with such confidence.
Song Shiting's gaze deepened as he looked at her.
Zhao Mei's voice rang out from outside.
It sounds like they're scolding Ruan Dongxue.
"You're such a grown man, can't you help? Look at all this work in the kitchen. Don't you eat? You can't even light a fire?"
It was probably because they were going to stay, but when it was time to cook, Ruan Qingling didn't go out to help, so she started making veiled accusations.
Ruan Qingling didn't want to go out.
Let her curse all she wants.
Song Shiting sat down on the side.
His well-defined fingers tapped on the table.
Ya Ya probably found it amusing and actually tried to slide off her mother's lap.
Ruan Qingling then placed her on the table.
Ya Ya sat at the table, imitating Song Shiting.
She tapped her chubby little hands on the table, but she couldn't make the same sound as her father.
It seems a bit rushed.
"Horse... horse..."
The little girl was so anxious that she wanted to call for help.
Ruan Qingling found it particularly funny.
"Try it yourself, what can your mother do? I can't do it either, my hands hurt."
