She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Qiu Yingying looked at Tan Zongming's dark face and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Mr. Tan, Sister Fan's parents are in Shanghai, and we can't find them. Can you help?"

Qiu Yingying also emphasized that Fan Shengmei was Guan Juer's good friend, and if Tan Zongming didn't help, Guan Juer would be angry. Tan Zongming was a little amused. He knew Guan Juer, and Guan Juer's true friends were Andy and her friend Cheng Wanyu who went abroad. As for the other girls on the 22nd floor, Tan Zongming saw them as just coincidences. They might be friends, but they were just ordinary friends.

Tan Zongming thought for a moment and said, "It's not safe for you to go out at night. How about this? I'll arrange for two bodyguards to go with you so that they can take care of you."

Qiu Yingying was instantly happy. She didn't even ask Guan Juer if she had time. She kept thanking him, "Thank you, Mr. Tan. Thank you, Mr. Tan."

After sending Qiu Yingying away, Tan Zongming made up his mind to persuade Guan Juer to move to his place, otherwise he couldn't stand the constant interruptions.

Fan Shengmei was so surprised when she saw Qiu Yingying showing up with two bodyguards, "Yingying, what are you doing?"

Qiu Yingying proudly took credit for it to Fan Shengmei, "Sister Fan, these two gentlemen were arranged by Mr. Tan to help us find someone."

Fan Shengmei was confused, "Why would Mr. Tan come to help us find someone?"

Qiu Yingying told Fan Shengmei the whole story. Fan Shengmei couldn't help but smile bitterly. She didn't know what kind of image she had in Mr. Tan's mind.

But she didn't have time to think about it. The four of them acted separately and finally found Fan Shengmei's parents and Lei Lei in the underground passage.

When Fan Shengmei saw her parents and nephew sitting on the floor in the corridor, she felt sorry for her parents and thought of her own recent predicament. She couldn't help but feel sad, and the whole family hugged each other and cried.

Qiu Yingying, who was standing by, also had tears in her eyes, but the touching feeling between family members only lasted for a moment.

On the way back, the bodyguard only drove one car, which was not enough for everyone.

Fan Shengmei was also afraid of dirtying Tan Zongming's car, "Mom and Dad, this is someone else's car and there's no room for us. Let's take the subway."

Mother Fan patted Fan Shengmei and said, "You silly girl, you don't have to pay to take the subway. There is a free bus but you insist on spending money. I don't know how your brother is starving and freezing outside, and you are still wasting money."

Fan Shengmei felt a little embarrassed, so she pulled her mother aside and whispered, "Mom, there's no room for so many people!"

Mother Fan threw her hands impatiently, "Why can't you sit down? Can't you just squeeze in? I see you're used to the comforts of the city and can't stand any hardship. This little money you save is enough to buy a meal for your brother and sister-in-law."

Qiu Yingying was stunned. As an only child, although Qiu's parents were from ordinary families, they loved Qiu Yingying enough. Therefore, she had never seen such parents before.

You looked so affectionate just now, how come you're being treated more like your brother than yours in the blink of an eye?

Seeing that Fan Shengmei couldn't even lift her head because of Fan's mother's scolding, Qiu Yingying quickly spoke up for Fan Shengmei, "Auntie, let's squeeze in together, and then we can just hold the child."

The final result was that two bodyguards sat in the front, and four adults with their children squeezed in the back. Lei Lei was impatient with the crowding and kept making a fuss, but Fan's mother was reluctant to deal with her grandson, so they quarreled all the way.

Qiu Yingying asked Fan Shengmei amidst the noise, "Sister Fan, why don't we find a hotel first and arrange for uncle and aunt to stay. It's so late now, they must be tired..."

Fan Shengmei was short of money and was embarrassed to tell Qiu Yingying that she had little money left. She had originally planned to let both her parents go to 2202.

Without waiting for Fan Shengmei to answer, Fan's mother directly refuted Qiu Yingying, "Why go to a hotel? That's so expensive. We can just stay at Xiaomei's place. It's no big deal if we squeeze in together."

Qiu Yingying: "Ah? But our place is small to begin with, and we have partitions. Sister Fan, can your small room accommodate us?"

Fan Shengmei didn't know how to answer, so she had to remain silent. As they were talking, the car slowly stopped in front of the entrance of Ode to Joy, and several people finally got out of the car. Qiu Yingying quickly stretched herself, as she had been squeezed pretty hard just now.

As soon as Fan's mother entered Ode to Joy, she kept complaining about the environment inside, "The environment here is too good, how much does it cost to live here? Xiaomei, listen to your mother, go and return the house to the landlord, get the remaining rent back, and move to the company to live, which will save a lot of expenses. When the time comes, you give me the money and I will call your brother so that he won't starve and suffer in other places. At this critical moment, the family still needs to understand and help each other."

Fan Shengmei didn't want to talk. She was considerate of her family, but who would be considerate of her? She was thirty years old and had worked in the company for so many years. She had some face. If she suddenly had to go back to live in the company dormitory and live with those fresh graduates, how would people look at her?

Back at 2202, Fan's mother took away all the money Fan Shengmei had. That night, Fan Shengmei lay on the sofa and couldn't fall asleep, but she had to go to work the next day, so she had to force herself to close her eyes.

Guan Juer didn't know about this until the next day. Qiu Yingying complained to Andy early in the morning, and after get off work, she ran to Guan Juer's house to complain.

Qiu Yingying: "Alas! You don't know, Sister Fan's parents are too much. I have never seen such parents. They keep saying that they are a family, but they only want Sister Fan to make sacrifices."

Guan Juer seemed to be thinking about something. "Actually, I have thought about this before. Sister Fan's salary is not low, and her daily expenses are not large. I have never seen her buy any luxury goods. After working for so many years, she should be able to afford the rent of a house. But now she still lives in a shared house and takes the subway to get off work every day. With Sister Fan's personality, if she had money, she would have dressed herself up long ago, so the question is, where did her money go?"

Qiu Yingying asked blankly, "Yeah, where did you go?"

It was Andy who finally responded, "Xiao Guan, you mean that Xiao Fan gave all his money to his family?"

"Yes, I can't find any other direction except this one. I have actually seen some girls' self-narrations on the Internet. In a family that favors boys over girls, parents dote on boys and girls are the weeds in the family. They have to work and take care of their brothers since they are young, and when they grow up and get married, they can give their brothers a dowry. Sister Fan is probably still the best case scenario. At least she went to college. Some girls are forced to go out to work to earn money for their families when they are teenagers."

Qiu Yingying asked doubtfully, "Are Sister Fan's parents okay?"
