Two figures walked down the stairs, one of them was Qin Zhenzhen, and the other was a thin and short boy.
The boy was no more than fourteen years old, with dark skin and a few scars on his face. He looked like a street thug.
What made Chen Lan even more confused was that this boy was somewhat similar to Qin Zhenzhen.
That’s right, this boy was Qin Zhenzhen’s half-brother, born to her biological mother and a strange man in the mining area.
Qin Zhenzhen was able to escape back to the capital this time thanks to her younger brother. Otherwise, no matter how capable she was, it would be difficult for her to move forward without someone to protect her.
"Hmm~" Chen Lan looked at Qin Zhenzhen who was approaching step by step, and her throat kept making impatient humming sounds.
Why did her precious daughter knock her out and tie her up?
Is she dreaming?
Qin Zhenzhen's face no longer had the kindness and obedience she had pretended to have in the past. She walked up and slapped Chen Lan in the face.
"Pa——" Chen Lan's face was twisted due to the blow.
Why? Why would she hit the daughter she'd risked everything to protect?
She turned to look at Qin Zhenzhen, her eyes full of grief.
"Tsk~" Qin Zhenzhen spat a mouthful of sticky yellow saliva in her face.
"Old woman, hand over all the money in the house, the bank deposits, and the gold bars that this disabled man has hidden!" Qin Zhenzhen said, then grabbed Chen Lan's hair and pulled the cloth out of her mouth with her other hand.
"Ugh—" A breath of cold air irritated Chen Lan's throat, causing her throat to spasm.
Before she could catch her breath, Qin Zhenzhen slapped her in the face again.
Chen Lan's faith was crumbling. She looked up at Qin Zhenzhen in confusion, "Why? Is mom not good to you? Mom has never treated you badly!"
"You still have the nerve to say you're nice to me? You just like me to be as obedient as a dog, kneeling at your feet and wagging my tail. Over the years, I've given up my self-esteem and myself to please you. Aren't you particularly happy?" Qin Zhenzhen looked at Chen Lan with eyes full of hatred.
Chen Lan listened to her words that made no sense at all and didn't know how to respond. She just shook her head in confusion.
"You say you are good to me? I was almost shot because of that bitch Qin Siyang. Have you ever visited me?" Qin Zhenzhen became more and more excited as she spoke. She simply grabbed Chen Lan's neck and shook it.
Due to lack of oxygen, the corners of Chen Lan's eyes were stained scarlet.
If the scarred boy behind her hadn't come up and pulled Qin Zhenzhen away, Chen Lan would have been suffocated.
She wanted to explain that she didn't mean to avoid seeing Qin Zhenzhen. It was because too many things had happened at home recently that she didn't get away.
But Qin Zhenzhen obviously didn't have the patience to listen to her explanation. "If you don't want to die in pain, hand over all the money in your family!"
"Zhenzhen, Mom really loves you! If you let me go, I will give you money and send you to the countryside to hide, okay?" Chen Lan still had illusions about Qin Zhenzhen.
