The death of Tang Mengying became the hottest topic. For a time, the whole country was discussing Tang Mengying’s end. In just two months, eight people were killed by her. Three of them lived in remote villages without monitoring, two were in small towns with inconvenient traffic, and three were in Kingstown. Because of the horrible crimes and the critical situation on the spot, the police did not press charges against the captain for shooting the criminal.
Tang Mengying’s tragic death also made Mrs. Tang, who was far away from the AIDS isolation center in Kingstown, feel unacceptable. Coupled with a long period of depression, she jumped into the bathtub and committed suicide while taking a bath.
Tang Mengqing became an orphan with a huge debt. When the police investigated, they found that she had disappeared more than a year ago, without any traces in the country, just like disappearing out of thin air.
The tragedy of the Tang family had been on various legal news, and even Weibo was filled with similar stories for several days. Before the national holiday was over, Rong Anna and Bo Xiao did not see the so-called partners, but almost all of the money had been squandered. When Bo Xiao went to a bar, Rong Anna took out the bank card that Rong Rui gave her and quietly walked to the nearby ATM machine.

Cheng You was holding the child to feed her. Rong Rui was eating slowly. And the TV was broadcasting the morbid tragedy of the Tang family.
Cheng You looked at it while glancing at Rong Rui. She asked, “What do you think of this?”
“Well?” Rong Rui took a sip of his soup and felt her skeptical glance. He frowned and put the bowl down. “Needs more salt, but good otherwise. I can still drink it. Pay more attention next time.”
Cheng You gave him a look. “Whoever asked about the soup? I mean what do you think of the Tang family. Any thoughts?”
Rong Rui pick up a chestnut with his chopsticks. He didn’t lift his eyelids and said, “What thoughts can I have? They deserve worse.”
“What about Tang Mengying?”
“She killed eight people and almost killed her own child. What’s the point of living for someone like that?” Rong Rui put down the chopsticks and chewed while watching her. “No matter what the hardships, even an animal won’t hurt its cub. This woman drove a knife into the neck of Li Mosen. If the old Captain did not act fast enough, do you think this little guy would still live?”
The answer was yes.
Cheng You looked suspiciously at him and raised her eyebrows. “Do you really think so?”
“What?” Rong Rui was somewhat helpless. “Stop it, that kind of woman, I was blind to like her back in the days. When I decided to stay with you, I completely broke up with her.”
Was it that time in the hospital? Cheng You lowered her eyes, feeding the baby. Thinking of the scene at the hospital that night, her heart was still somewhat uncomfortable.
[I said, I will take care of you. Don’t worry. ]
“I didn’t feel anything for you at the time. I forgot.”
Rong Rui once again filled himself a bowl of soup. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and nodded. “It turned out to be like this. How do I remember that you were quite angry when you were in the hospital, and kicked me? It hurt.”
Cheng You’s stared at him and threw a little koi at him.
Rong Rui caught it, smiled and was about to say something when his phone vibrated. It was a text message.
[Kingstown Bank: you made a withdrawal of 20,000 yuan from the ATM machine. Your balance…]
He lowered his eyes.
Finally, they ran out of money…
