She looked at Liu Ronghua in disbelief. Everything Liu Ronghua said seemed to look down on her current status.
Did Liu Ronghua think that after she moved into the Shen family and entered the upper class, she looked down on her daughter who worked hard for a living at the bottom?
Did she think that she was not worthy of Qi Chenglin?
How could she say those words!
"Do you mean that I have to thank you? You became the matchmaker between me and Chenglin. I even have to thank Shen Jialiang and Shen Zhijing. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to get into Qi Chenglin's bed. I wouldn't have been touched by him in this life, I wouldn't have known him, and I wouldn't have given birth to a son for him, right? " Ruan Danchen's heart was getting colder and colder. She really wanted to roar out and ask Liu Ronghua what was going on in her mind. What did she think of her!
What kind of mother could do what Liu Ronghua did!
Liu Ronghua flinched, but with a face full of tears, she said pitifully, "If you really want to talk about it, it is indeed like this."
Ruan Danchen suddenly let out a low "hehehehe" sound. Her shoulders trembled violently. When she looked up again, tears were streaming down her face.
Liu Ronghua was taken aback by her reaction of crying and laughing.
Ruan Danchen really had the urge to ask Liu Ronghua if she was really her biological daughter. What kind of biological mother would do such things to her own daughter?
"Then I really have to thank you." Ruan Danchen said sarcastically.
Liu Ronghua sniffed, licked her lips, and said, "Danchen, no matter what happened at the beginning, in the end, I did help you —"
"Enough!" Ruan Danchen said angrily, with a broken cry, "Are you asking me to repay your kindness now? You said that you helped me, but you didn't care about me for the past seven years. Now you have the face to come and tell me this! "
Liu Ronghua shrank her neck. "But you're living well now. Isn't that enough?"
"You see that I'm living well now, but have you ever thought about how I got here before? Let's not talk about how I can only sleep four hours a day for school fees. I don't even have a home to go back to during the holidays. Every year during Chinese New Year, I watched as B City became an empty city. Everyone went home for Chinese New Year. Every family had a lively reunion dinner, but I was alone. I stayed in the house I rented, listening to the sound of firecrackers outside and turning the volume of the TV to the maximum. I didn't even dare to go down to see the fireworks. All the children below were laughing and playing, protected by their parents. Not to mention now, even when I was young, I had never experienced it. You said I was doing well, but where were you then? You are busy trying to please Shen Jialiang and Shen Zhijing! "
"You said that I should thank you. Because of you, I can be with Cheng Lin now. But how am I doing now? Does it have anything to do with you? I was lucky to have met him back then. If I had met someone else, what kind of fate do you think I would have? If the other party was an extremely unbearable person, you would still push me onto the bed. My life would have been ruined, how could I have the happiness I have now? "
"But … but what you said are all 'if's. Since you are so happy now, why do you need to think about what happened back then? There are no 'if's. Because of us, you met Qi Chenglin and have the life you have now. Danchen, you didn't have the ability in the past, but you have the ability now. Help Mom, okay? " Liu Ronghua cried with tears in her eyes. She didn't seem to have heard a word of what Ruan Danchen said just now.
Ruan Danchen shook her head in pain, despair rising in her heart.
"Mom." Ruan Danchen cried.
After so many years, suddenly hearing her call her like this, Liu Ronghua's body shook violently.
"You said before that I didn't even want to call you Mom. Mom, I'll call you again now. I beg you, let me go, okay? I have never begged you. Even when you made such a request to me in order to enter the Shen family, I didn't beg you. Now I beg you, please let me go, okay? You asked me to help you, but I want to beg you, help me too, okay?
"I beg you, just let me go and give me a peaceful and happy life, okay? I really beg you, don't force me anymore, don't use me anymore. " Ruan Danchen cried so much that she couldn't speak clearly. "You and I have never enjoyed maternal love since we were young. It wasn't easy for you to get married to Uncle Li. He treated me very well and treated me like his own daughter. He would go to the parents' meeting for me, he would go to the sports meet, but before the New Year, he couldn't stand you anymore. In my life, I have never had a complete family. I don't have extravagant hopes for maternal love, and I have only enjoyed paternal love for a short year. Now that I have met Chenglin and Youxuan, I really want to build a family with them. I don't want Youxuan to be like me, a child without a mother, and I also want to experience the warmth and happiness of a family. I only have this one request, I want to have a family, I beg you, let me go. "
Ruan Danchen closed her eyes, crying so hard that her eyes hurt.
Liu Ronghua's mouth moved and said, "Actually, it's the same if you come to the Shen family. I will be your mother, your Uncle Shen will be your father, and you will have Zhijing, that sister. You can still marry Qi Chenglin, and you will have two families. How great is that! "
Ruan Danchen was going crazy, she wanted to scream. She squatted down and covered her face, crying so hard that she couldn't speak.
Liu Ronghua, she … How could she do this!
"If I must go to the Shen family in exchange for a family, I won't go! I'd rather not have a family in this life than let the Shen family use Chenglin and Youxuan! Even if I die, I won't help you and the Shen family. Do you want to see me die? Did I say it clearly enough? No matter what you or the Shen family say to me, I will not agree to it. It's enough that I was used by you once, I will not let Chenglin and Youxuan be disliked by you again. "
"Danchen, you … How can you say that? Don't you think for me? If I can't convince you, I will be chased out of the Shen family! " Liu Ronghua cried as she said, tightly grabbing the front of her dress. "It's obviously a happy ending for everyone, and there are benefits for everyone, why don't you agree? Do you really want to see me get chased out of the house and have nowhere to go? Danchen, do you want to take revenge on me? Because of what happened in the past, you hate me, and can't wait for me to have nowhere to go. You want me to taste all the bitterness that you have suffered, right? "
Ruan Danchen raised her head and looked at Liu Ronghua in a daze. That kind of disheartened gaze made Liu Ronghua tremble.
Ruan Danchen stood up. Because she was squatting just now, suddenly standing up made her a little dizzy. Her vision turned black, but she was still conscious. She hurriedly held onto the side of the table and rested for a while. When her vision recovered, Ruan Danchen's gaze was still cold.
"Danchen …" Liu Ronghua called her pitifully.
"In the future … Don't look for me." Ruan Danchen took a deep breath, choking with sobs. "Just take it that you don't have a daughter like me. If the Qi family really despises my background and I don't have the fortune to marry Cheng Lin, I'll accept it. You can say whatever you want to the Qi family. Anyway, I've already prepared myself to not be able to marry him. Even if I can't marry him in this life, I'll always be with him. I won't look for someone else. "
"Don't look for me about the matter between you and the Shen family. As early as seven years ago, I said it, and you agreed. Now that you've gone back on your words, I think you won't listen to me no matter what I say. You'll think that the reason is all on your side. If you come to Qi Lin to look for me, it's up to you if you want to make a ruckus in Qi Lin and ruin my reputation. Anyway, my reputation will be ruined sooner or later. Since I can't marry Cheng Lin, why should I care? It doesn't matter how bad it is. "
"You and the Shen family can say and do whatever you want. It's up to you." Ruan Danchen said it calmly, but her tears kept falling. But that face of hers was completely devoid of hope.
Liu Ronghua looked at her, feeling like she was looking at a living dead.
"I've already said so much. What else do you think the Shen family can use to threaten me and pinch me?" Ruan Danchen cried and the corners of her mouth twitched in self-mockery. "I've even stopped asking for your motherly love a long time ago. I just hope that you can think about me a little, even just for a little. But in the end, even this is an extravagant request."
"Danchen, you can't …"
Before Liu Ronghua could finish her words, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open.
Liu Ronghua turned around in surprise, but her face turned pale. She saw Qi Chenglin walk in with a livid face.
From the moment Ruan Danchen arrived at the cafe, she secretly sent him a text message and told him the address. He did not wait and directly came over.
He was afraid that Ruan Danchen would be bullied, and he also wanted to know what Liu Ronghua would say shamelessly if he was not there.
In the end, the more he listened, the angrier he became. He was so angry that his hands were shaking.
But when he heard Ruan Danchen say that she would rather have nothing than to let the Shen family embarrass him and You Xuan, he was really so touched that he did not know what to say. His heart was full of gratitude.
He heard Ruan Danchen crying inside and heard Ruan Danchen crying and begging him, but Liu Ronghua still did not listen to her. She only thought about herself.
Qi Chenglin's heart ached. When he thought of Ruan Danchen's tear-stained face and her teardrops falling off, his heart tightened and ached.
He could not bear it anymore and finally came in angrily.
Ruan Danchen looked at Qi Chenglin in a daze. She did not expect him to come so quickly, but she was relieved.
Previously, she was crying so dejectedly, but now she was crying like a spoiled child. Finally, she had someone to rely on and could cry a little more weakly.
Qi Chenglin did not say anything. He quickly took two steps forward with his long legs and protected Ruan Danchen in his arms. Seeing her crying so weakly, his heart felt as if it was being pricked by needles.
He pressed Ruan Danchen's face in his arms and did not mind that her snot and tears dirtied his clothes.
He felt that her body, which was a little stiff before, relaxed when he protected her in his arms. She sobbed and cried with grievance, as if she was going to complain to her parents.
Qi Chenglin lowered his head and kissed her on the top of her head. He raised his head and looked at Liu Ronghua coldly with a pair of black eyes.
Liu Ronghua's face was pale. She did not know what Qi Chenglin meant. But under Qi Chenglin's cold gaze, her legs could not help but weaken and she could not help stepping back.
Qi Chenglin did not say anything, but his lips were very tight. Only when he lowered his head to look at Ruan Danchen did the lines of his face soften.
He left with Ruan Danchen just like that.
In the car, he did not let Ruan Danchen sit in the front passenger seat. He directly took her to the seat and hugged her. He did not say anything, but kept patting and coaxing her.
When Ruan Danchen was tired of crying, she burped in his arms, and her shoulders trembled with her.
Qi Chenglin's heart ached as he took a tissue and wiped her nose.
"I'll do it myself. It's dirty." Ruan Danchen wanted to take the tissue over, but Qi Chenglin did not let go.
"Don't move. Let me do it," he said softly.
He wiped her nose clean and didn't mind that her snot had soaked through the tissue and onto his fingertips. Ruan Danchen saw this and felt very embarrassed.
Then, he took a new tissue and gently pressed away her tears.
Ruan Danchen, whose face was red, could not care less about crying. She sniffled and held back her tears. Being treated so carefully by him, she did not feel uncomfortable anymore.
