Song Shijing chose a low-key private restaurant. As soon as the steaming meal arrived, he took the lead in serving a bowl of soup to Ruan Youning.
Song Shijing still didn't eat much, and mostly served Ruan Youning with food.
The tenderness in his eyes was ready to come out, and Ruan Youning felt uncomfortable in her heart. She could not convince herself to break up with him, nor could she convince herself to leave him.
However, the threat in Qin Yulan's words... she was really scared.
In her memory, did she only see Qin Yulan once, or was it because of her...
She has loved painting since she was a child, so Qin Yulan naturally hired the best teachers and attended the best cram schools for her.
After entering junior high school, Qin Yulan began to hire one-on-one painting teachers to teach at home. At the beginning, she was very serious and focused, and she was all about studying hard. Occasionally, her painting teacher accidentally dropped the picture album from her backpack. Ruan Youning was very curious, and she couldn't help but read through them one by one.
When the painting teacher saw it, he did not blame her for looking through things. Instead, he smiled and said that art is the same as reading. "Reading thousands of books means traveling thousands of miles." Everything in the world is full of art when you look at it with your heart. Finally, the painting teacher also said that if she had more contact with peers, maybe she would understand more about painting.
After Ruan Youning heard this, she pestered Qin Yulan to go to a collective painting tutorial class. Qin Yulan couldn't beat her, so she finally agreed. She told Ruan Zhicheng to pick up Ruan Youning home on time. Ruan Zhicheng was naturally a fool. accepted.
Ruan Zhicheng knew about it, so naturally Song Shijing also knew about it.
Ruan Youning, who has just entered junior high school, has a gentle and kind personality. She wears long black straight skirt, beige skirt, white socks and black leather shoes. It is a very standard image of a little white flower who does not eat the fireworks of the world.
Among her peers, she is the most impeccably beautiful, just like her paintings.
At the beginning, the girls in the painting cram school were happy to be friends with her. Who doesn't love beautiful girls?
As for Song Shijing and Ruan Zhicheng, they would take turns picking her up from school every once in a while.
Song Shijing's coldness and alienation, Ruan Zhicheng's enthusiasm and mischief, and Ruan Youning's beauty and tranquility, the three of them are undoubtedly a beautiful scenery.
Although they are still young, girls in junior high school already have their own aesthetics.
Just after the three of them walked together a few times, something quietly changed.
Jealousy does not respect age, but it can happen because you are young and cannot hide it well.
For Ruan Youning, everyone just ostracized him at first, then slowly turned into isolation, and then slowly changed from isolation to manipulation.
Ruan Youning was bullied. After she noticed this change, she immediately planned to tell Song Shijing, Ruan Zhicheng, and her parents after school that she would never come to this kind of collective cram school again.
They didn't like her, and she wasn't willing to give up her original intentions for so-called 'friendship'.
After school, before she even had time to leave the school, several girls locked her in the toilet and beat her severely.
The girl who beat her was very scheming. There were no scars on her limbs, but they were all in hidden places.
The person who took her home that day happened to be Ruan Zhicheng. Ruan Zhicheng was so careless that he didn't notice it at all.
At dinner, Ruan Youning whispered that she never wanted to go to cram school again.
Ruan Langping originally felt that group tutoring classes were not as good as one-on-one tutoring, so he naturally agreed, but Qin Yulan saw something was wrong with her.
Ruan Youning has grown up smoothly since she was a child, and she still has a bit of foolishness and a white lotus heart. Therefore, when encountering disputes, she mostly thinks about how to avoid them. She thinks that she will just not go to such cram schools in the future. From the root cause By cutting it off, a lot of things are avoided.
She thought she was being generous, but in the eyes of others, she was weak and easy to bully.
Qin Yulan's eyes were so sharp. With just a little investigation, he learned everything.
Ruan Youning was found to have a fever late that night. Her whole body was burned to the point of confusion, and her young face was full of forbearance and grievance.
She fell seriously ill and fell asleep for three days.
When she regained consciousness again, she was surprised to find that she was actually in the hospital, with people kneeling on the ground just a bed apart.
The girls who bullied her were kneeling at the front, their bodies covered with scars, their faces bruised, their foreheads bruised, but they still kept knocking, begging her for forgiveness.
One day later, she occasionally heard Ruan Zhicheng mention that during the days when she was in coma, the people in front of the bed knelt for several days until she woke up.
As for what happened to them, Ruan Youning didn't pay attention to it.
She especially remembered Qin Yulan's words: "It would not be a pity for people like you to die a thousand times."
In Qin Yulan's view, if they hurt her, they deserve to die.
Looking back now, Qin Yulan is really a very good mother. Even now, she only makes sarcastic remarks and does not take any strong measures.
If there was no old relationship, she might not be in Yancheng by now.
Ruan Youning felt sad and lost her appetite. She only felt that the delicious food on the table tasted like wax.
Song Shijing could see the gloom on her face. Song Shijing was more sure of his thoughts. He couldn't help but want to ask directly. After a while, he couldn't help it anymore.
If it was something she could say, she would say it without him asking. But if she didn't say it now, it would probably be something unspeakable.
Song Shijing was thoughtful, but still respected Ruan Youning's attitude.
After finishing the meal, Song Shijing drove and the two of them went home together.
In the car, Ruan Youning had no intention of speaking. She curled up in the passenger seat and fell asleep. Under the bright and dim lights, she seemed extremely tired.
After Song Shijing took a look, he quietly adjusted the angle of the car seat.
The almost flat car seat made Ruan Youning sleep even deeper, casting deep shadows under her eyelashes.
In the narrow space, Song Shijing could only hear his and her shallow breathing.
That's all, don't worry about it for a while.
He sighed and focused on driving.

Ruan Youning had a very uncomfortable sleep. She had a rare dream, and everything in the dream was so realistic.
The moment she learned that she was not the biological daughter of the Ruan family, she intentionally or unintentionally hooked up with the innocent Ruan Zhicheng. On the bed, she was so groveling, begging Ruan Zhicheng over and over again to say something nice for her, and to Leave her alone.
She couldn't live without everything in the Ruan family, and she couldn't live without this smooth life.
She tried her best to use Ruan Zhicheng's plea to stay in the Ruan family.
And she did stay.
Ruan Langping made it clear that he did not need to drive her away, but from now on, she was not allowed to appear in front of Jiang Pan'er. The Ruan family would not give her another penny, and she would not get anything.
She believed Ruan Langping's words, but when she saw Jiang Pan'er enjoying everything she once had, jealousy was like a poisonous snake, wrapping around her heart and her whole body, making her surge. Showing infinite hatred.
She thought viciously that it would be better if Jiang Pan'er did not exist. If Jiang Pan'er died, the Ruan family would continue to have only her daughter, and the Ruan family would have to accept her.
She thought viciously, but she could only think about it.
Her childhood sweetheart Song Shijing still treated her sincerely after learning that she was not the daughter of the Ruan family.
Although Song Shijing had stated countless times that he loved her as a person, regardless of identity, status, power, or anything else in the world, he just loved her. But Ruan Youning still has no sense of security. She is paranoid and stubborn. She feels that only with her identity can she deserve all this and be with Song Shijing.
She was eager to get married to Song Shijing and get the certificate. But Qin Yulan dragged on the engagement party day after day, until she almost collapsed, when she learned about Jiang Pan'er and Song Shijing's engagement.
She went to find Song Shijing, but she only received a cold and distant response from the Song family. She refused to give up and finally went to Song Shijing.
Song Shijing explained over and over again that he was not willing, he was forced, and he didn't like Jiang Pan'er.
But when she asked why she wanted to get engaged, Song Shijing remained silent. He just let her beat and scold her without opening his mouth to explain a word.
She returned to her apartment in despair, only to find that all her belongings had been thrown out.
As soon as she raised her head, there was the figure of Jiang Pan'er, looking down at her from the balcony on the second floor of her apartment. Her voice was gentle and waxy, and she smiled like a happy little princess: "I don't like you living in my house, and I don't like you touching her." You'd better disappear my things and stop thinking about things that don't belong to you."
At that moment, the poisonous snake in her heart swallowed her heart.
-
As if opening a third perspective, Ruan Youning viewed these scenes completely as an outsider. But Ruan Youning can fully understand everything she has experienced in the picture, her anger, her hatred, her viciousness.
She couldn't help but cover her heart, and couldn't help but want to grab something to stop being so afraid.
Everything is still going on.
She saw that she also smiled back at Jiang Pan'er, and then she pushed Jiang Pan'er with full joy.
The second floor of the apartment was more than five meters high from the ground. After Jiang Pan'er fell, she lost her breath on the spot, and the bright red color blurred everything in an instant.
Suddenly, a huge wave of cold sweat swept through my body, no! don't want! ! ! No! ! ! !
Ruan Youning screamed in her heart. She desperately wanted to do something, but found that everything was in vain.
She was like air, she couldn't touch everything here, she could only watch everything happen.
Amidst the great fear and panic, an indescribable joy slowly rose in her chest.
This is not her emotion! She would never have such malicious pleasure!
Ruan Youning pressed her heart hard, trying her best to deny this inexplicable pleasure.
And the scene continued. In the dream, she seemed to be mad, smiling wantonly and coldly, and then she jumped without hesitation.
madman! Absolutely crazy! ! ! !
Ruan Youning's body suddenly felt pain. She was so frightened that she pulled her hair, hoping she would wake up soon! Don't continue this nightmare! ! !
As for myself who fell into the garden on the first floor, a smile appeared on her lips, but she still managed to utter a few words.
Ruan Youning couldn't hear clearly and couldn't see clearly. In the great fear, she completely lost her voice and couldn't even utter a word.
But at this moment, she suddenly noticed a line of sight, looking at her quietly as if unaffected by everything.
Even though Ruan Youning knew that she was dreaming, knew that everything she was experiencing now was a dream, and knew that no one could see her here, she could still clearly feel the grief and love in that sight.
Love? How can there be love? Who in this world would love her?
Ruan Youning had a splitting headache, but she clearly felt that there was something she was about to lose. This frightening feeling almost woke her up.
She suddenly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Song Shijing beside her. The fear in her dream had not disappeared, making her eager to get real warmth.
The moment she opened her eyes, Song Shijing also turned around.
The moment they looked at each other, Ruan Youning felt that his heart would stop for a few seconds, and then there was a violent beating sound. The heartbeat sound was so clear and strong in the quiet car.
The next second, she followed her heart and rushed forward.
