Chapter 25
“Ning Sheng is now someone else’s wife. Since she is not willing to come back anymore, Dad and Mum, stop forcing her.”
The girl who spoke was wearing a gray school uniform and carrying a school bag. She looked like a high school student, but her face was covered in makeup. Her sailor dress was also altered to be slightly shorter.
She was the youngest daughter of the Ning family, Ning Yue.
“Ning Sheng, you’re really not as filial as your younger brother and sister.” Wang Gui Lan glared at Ning Sheng. She had never liked Ning Sheng since young.
Logically speaking, Ning Sheng was the eldest in the family, and she was exceptionally outstanding. She was even the top humanities student in the college entrance examination. The province even gave him a reward and 2000 dollars. However, at home, she was still despised by his parents and his sister.
Ning Yue on the opposite had been causing trouble since she was young. She even bullied people in school and was considered to be a typical bad student.
Her brother Ning Mu was even worse. He hardly communicated with the family, except when asking for money.
“Let’s just sever all ties then.” Ning Yue said with a smile. She did not like her older sister at all. She would always act like she was so good. What was the use of being so good at studying? Marrying a rich husband would make the whole family happy yet she married a pretty boy.
The worst part? He doesn’t even have money!
“No! Your sister still has to support you and MuMu’s college education. Besides, she has a family now, she should take on the burden of this family. How can she abandon us just because she is married?” Wang Gui Lan did not agree.
“Does she even have money?” Ning Yue scoffed coldly.
The clothes she was wearing were not even as good as the ones Ning Yue was wearing.
However, she seemed to have noticed something. “Sister, this ring on your hand is quite valuable, right?”
Although Ning Yue had no money, she had always loved to look at luxury goods and was even more obsessed with high-end things. For some reason, she felt that the ring on Ning Sheng’s hand was very valuable.
“It’s just a fake.” Ning Sheng subconsciously retracted her hand.
“How could it be fake, mom? The ring on her hand must be very valuable. If we sell it, we might get a lot of money.” Ning Yue looked at the ring on Ning Sheng’s hand and inexplicably wanted to snatch it from her and make it hers.
Wang Gui Lan also looked over, “Ning Sheng, where did you get this ring?” she asked.
“My husband gave it to me. He doesn’t have any money, so it’s just a worthless thing. The diamond on the ring is fake. It’s just a counterfeit.” Ning Sheng’s words were monotone. She knew the ring was a fake so she did not bother trying to explain much.
However, this was the only thing Lu Chu Yao gave her after they got married. She would not lose it.
Wang Gui Lan didn’t believe it was anything good and pushed the topic away by saying, “It’s a fake. I’ve seen her man before. He’s a poor pretty boy. What expensive things can he give?”
There was a hint of disdain in her words.
“Since there’s nothing important today, I’ll take my leave. If there’s nothing important in the future, I hope you don’t look for me. After all, I was kidnapped by human traffickers when I was 10 years old, and you didn’t take it to heart. You might as well forget about me.”
Ning Sheng clenched her fists while finishing her sentence. She had enough of this family and did not want them to be a burden to her anymore. She wanted her own life.
Family, what a beautiful word.
However, it had always been her hell, and it wouldn’t stop until she died.
If she was said to be unfilial, then she would accept it.
She had already done her best.
