signature dishes.” 。"Too much to waste" 。"Tinglan wanted to stop " 。"Don't waste, pack it up and take it home if you can't finish it." 。"Lin Zhixuan openly accepts Shi Yan's feelings" 。"Teacher Shi,...Her mother kept serving her dishes: "Ruan Ruan, eat more, you're too skinny."

"The school cafeteria food isn't very tasty, is it"

"From now on, you can come home every weekend. Your room is ready for you at home, and Mom has cooked some delicious food."

Ruan Ruan felt a long-lost sense of family affection, her heart stirred. She remembered the past; perhaps her mother's own circumstances were too difficult, and she was powerless to give her more love. Now that she had the ability, she had the energy to take care of her.

"Thank you, Mom." This time, it was genuine. In her most vulnerable moment, this warmth felt especially precious.

She hadn't fully recovered yet, so after dinner she said hello and went back to her room to sleep early. She slept for about two hours when she woke up thirsty. She was going to go to the living room to get some water, but as soon as she opened the door, she heard her mother and stepfather talking in the living room.

The voice was not loud, but she heard every word and every syllable clearly.

Her mother said, "The gift money for the child's wedding in two days we're keeping, we can't give it to them. Otherwise, they'll definitely squander it."

Stepfather: "Alright, this time the red envelope should be quite substantial. We had spent some money previously when we went out together, so it's a good opportunity to get it back."

Her mother: "I don't know how much Ruanruan will be able to save this time. I inquired, and at her level at Sun University, her annual salary is over 200,000 yuan. Plus, she lives and eats at the school, so she probably won't spend much. She should be able to save some money, and there's also a substantial bonus at the end of the year."

Stepfather: "Well, tomorrow I'll have my sister chat with her. I'll also remind her that nowadays many elder sisters are very generous, well-off, and even able to buy a house for their younger brothers. It's only natural for an older sister to help her younger brother."

Her mother: "Okay, I'll have your older sister talk to you about it tomorrow. Otherwise, I'm worried you're too young and naive, and don't understand these customs."

Ruan Ruan stood by the door of the hallway, a chill running down her spine. She thought that her mother's repeated calls for her to come home were truly because their living conditions had improved and she was able to express maternal love towards her. She also believed that all the warmth and affection she received today were genuine.

Originally, he was only interested in her money.

Disappointment is inevitable, but there aren't too many extra emotions because I don't have much respect for them. She's just sick and confused, which makes her fantasize about getting warmth from her mother.

Without almost any hesitation, she threw on her coat, grabbed the suitcase she'd brought in that morning and walked straight out of the bedroom to the living room. She thanked the jumble of stuff crammed into her closet because everything in her suitcase remained untouched, so there was nothing to pack away.

The two people in the living room were dumbfounded as they watched her emerge with her suitcase.

“Ruannuan Where are you going so late” Her mother wanted to continue playing the role of a caring mother.

Ruan Ruan just stood coldly in front of her, then took out her phone, found her WeChat, and transferred 8000 yuan directly.

"This is the red envelope I, as your elder sister, prepared. Don't say that I don't understand etiquette; people give gifts according to their means."

She was also quite sharp in her words, making no attempt to hide her contempt and disdain for them. Was money really that important

Her mother and stepfather both had a bit of shame on their faces:

"Ruan Ruan, what do you mean Mom isn't after your money."

Ruan Ruan didn't want to see her act anymore and continued, "I can't afford a wedding house, but you guys don't forget, with the demolition payment from your small apartment, you can buy a new one and still have this return allocation because of what My brother was able to...

"If you give it to him, he'll take it back."

She put on a show of power, pretending to have the backing of someone strong, just so that she could completely cut off all ties with him afterward and avoid any further interactions.

After that, she simply grabbed her suitcase and left. It wasn't too late at this point, around 10 pm. A ride-hailing car arrived at the entrance of the apartment complex in less than 5 minutes.

After getting on the bus, she saw her mother quietly take the 8,000 yuan, so she blocked her mother's WeChat and phone number without any hesitation. There was no need to communicate anymore.

This city, because of the Lunar New Year, seemed like a deserted town. The usually traffic-jammed roads were now clear. Looking out the window at the scenery flying by so quickly, she questioned for the first time if her decision to return to work in her home country was the right one

Zhuo Yu'an's family and Lu Kuo were on the same flight back to Beijing. As soon as Lu Kuo got on the plane, he changed from his usual talkative self, putting on headphones and an eye mask and going straight to sleep in his seat. This made it impossible for Zhuo's two young children to get him to play with them.

Shu Xiaonian asked Ting Lan with concern, "Mommy, is Uncle Lu sick He looks very unhappy."

Even children can see that he is truly unhappy. others.His voice was the calm after a storm, a calmness that was unsettling."So back then, the shell companies Bao Shu used to launder money through the American banking system, one of them was under...
