After the divorce, I trained my dog, and the scumbag father and son knelt down at my door.

"Huff!" Suppressing her anger, Yan Niannian stared at Xiaojun's face and asked, word by word, "Xiaojun, why did you do this?"

"Repay kindness with hatred!"

"Do you...do you think you deserve the kindness I've shown you?"

A flicker of unease crossed Xiao Jun's eyes.

But the look of guilt vanished in an instant. He tilted his head, a mischievous grin on his face, and said, "Mom, what did you say? I don't understand!"

"Wouldn't it be nice if you stayed and became my mother?"

"To be your mother?"

Yan Niannian just found it funny.

How come she never noticed how self-righteous this child was when they were in the orphanage?

That expression on his face at that moment...

It's as if they're saying that being his mother is a very honorable and proud thing!

"Xiaojun, do you know how your mother died?" Yan Niannian asked.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jun's expression changed.

Although it was only for a moment, Yan Niannian still managed to capture it.

My heart sank.

She had a terrible suspicion.

"She was killed by your father. Her death was particularly gruesome; your father never treated her like a human being." Yan Niannian tried her best to awaken the last vestiges of conscience in the child.

Taking the bowl and placing it aside, Yan Niannian leaned forward slightly.

He gently took his hand and said earnestly, "Xiaojun, you are a good boy."

"Can we really bear to let the same tragedy repeat itself?"

"You bullshit!"

Xiao Jun's expression suddenly turned ferocious.

He didn't know which sensitive nerve was pricked, but he forcefully shook off Yan Niannian's hand. "Mom is a bad person. She's shameless. She has a perfectly good life, but she insists on courting death."

"Whose fault is it!"

“You…” Yan Niannian froze.

She stared incredulously at Xiaojun's contorted face and asked in a trembling voice, "You think your father did the right thing?"

"of course!"

He dared not look Yan Niannian in the eye, but Xiao Jun's stiff neck made him look self-righteous.

"Ah!"

Yan Niannian smiled.

His laughter was bitter, pale, and weak, and... a desolate lament for the stranger he had never met.

Just as she had guessed.

Xiao Jun vaguely knew the truth.

However, he was unable to empathize with his own mother, and even, like Ho Po-lee, he despised and trampled on her.

They don't treat her like a human being.

Sure enough, the genes ingrained in one's bones cannot be changed.

This kid...

Hey!

It's really hard to put into words.

Xiao Jun's body stiffened.

With her neck tense, she clenched her little fists little by little until they formed a fist.

At this moment, his sensitive and fragile heart was deeply stimulated by the disappointment and disgust shown on Yan Niannian's face.

"Yan Niannian!" He shouted Yan Niannian's full name, panting heavily, exasperated. "Your own son, what's his name again..."

"Oh, right, his name is Zhuo Xuan."

“I heard he would rather find another aunt to be his mother than acknowledge you. Nobody wants you. You are so pitiful.”

"I'm giving you the chance to be my mother because I think highly of you, don't push your luck."

"do you know?"

Yan Niannian frowned.

At this moment, the small figure in front of me and He Baoli's hideous face completely merged together, both vicious and abhorrent.

The next moment, Yan Niannian, with a sullen face, slowly got off the kang (a heated brick bed).

She stood in front of Xiaojun.

The huge difference in their physiques made the figure that was splashing down quite intimidating, and Xiao Jun was immediately a little scared.

He instinctively took a step back, but his words remained defiant.

"What...what are you going to do? I'm warning you, don't do anything reckless! Otherwise, my dad will never forgive you."

"Ah!"

With a cold laugh, Yan Niannian raised her arm without saying a word.

Without even the slightest hesitation, he slashed down fiercely.

Snapped!

A crisp sound rang out, and Xiao Jun lost his balance, staggering back two steps uncontrollably.

Five finger marks were clearly visible.

Xiao Jun's eyes were brimming with tears, and his face was numb with pain.

"Get out!" Without even glancing at him, Yan Niannian shouted in disgust.

"Wow!"

Unable to suppress a chill, Xiao Jun covered his face and ran out crying.

Now, the room was finally completely quiet.

Yan Niannian shook her hand, turned around, picked up the steamed buns from the second bowl, and took a bite.

The pancakes were dry and astringent.

It lingered between my lips and teeth for a few moments, then felt rough and stuck in my throat; it was really hard to swallow.

Yan Niannian's pupils narrowed.

The next moment, they swallowed it all with difficulty.

Then, without any hesitation, she ate the remaining one and a half cakes.

At this moment, what she needed most was physical strength. She had to take care of herself in order to find a way to escape this hellish place that devoured people without spitting out their bones...

……

Meanwhile, Hao Xiaohong arrived at the hospital in a flurry, carrying two boxes of inexpensive gifts she had specially bought from the wholesale market.

Given Zhuo Yuchen's status, it would be easy to find out which VIP ward he was staying in just by asking around.

but……

Just as Hao Xiaohong was happily about to go in, she was stopped by the man in black standing at the door.

"who!"

The man in black shouted.

Hao Xiaohong was startled. She stammered, "I...I've come to visit President Zhuo."

"President Zhuo is resting now. No outsiders are allowed to disturb him."

The man in black glanced at Hao Xiaohong coldly, giving her a sidelong look.

His attitude was bad, and his expression was contemptuous.

Countless people come every day hoping to take the opportunity to visit their boss, Mr. Zhuo, and try to build a relationship with him.

But they are all from the upper class!

But where did someone like Hao Xiaohong, who looks like a country girl, come from?

"you……"

Hao Xiaohong felt a pang of sadness.

She was poor and lazy, but her self-esteem was not only sensitive but also frighteningly strong.

I can't stand it when others look down on me.

This really hit her where it hurts.

So at this moment, Hao Xiaohong's face turned red, and her puffed-out cheeks made her look exactly like a ridiculous pufferfish.

"Open your eyes wide and look carefully! Who are you calling 'unauthorized personnel'?" Hao Xiaohong's voice rose several octaves. "You're just a stinking gatekeeper, what's so great about you!"

"Let me tell you, if this happened in our countryside, I would have scratched your face to shreds."

The man in black's face immediately darkened.

Mr. Zhuo is still resting inside.

What if I disturb him?

Does this country girl want to die?

"Get lost!" The man in black stepped forward, waved his hand, and grabbed Hao Xiaohong by the collar without any politeness, then threw her out.

Hao Xiaohong was now in a panic.

It used both its hands and feet to flailing comically through the air.

Although the man in black looked terrifying and filled her with fear, she couldn't give up the wealth and luxury that was about to be hers.

In her haste, she yelled again, "I'm Yan Niannian's good friend. She's the one who sent me to find President Zhuo."

"You've eaten a leopard's heart, do you dare throw me out?"

Aren't you afraid Yan Niannian will cause you trouble?

Upon suddenly hearing the name "Yan Niannian," the man in black hesitated for a moment.

At that moment, Zhuo Yuchen's deep voice came from the ward, "Let her in!"
