This was not the most miserable situation. Ruan Ning left home at around ten and, as she grew older and more beautiful, became a target for local ruffians who caused trouble at the nunnery. She was abducted by Liu Bingchun and imprisoned in the Liu family. Despite being rescued by Zheng Yu, who wanted to marry her, rumors spread by the Meng siblings about her being already [censored] led to the Zheng family refusing to accept her. In the latter half of the story, she was left to cry, faint, cough up blood, and attempt suicide.
Due to criticism in the comment section about the female protagonist being too stupid and weak, the author abandoned the story.
Ruan Ning felt complex emotions.
If the man from before was indeed Liu Bingchun, she had narrowly escaped, but she was unsure if falling into Liu Bingchun’s or the Meng siblings’ hands would be more miserable.
Her body felt cold as Meng Yao pulled away the outer robe covering Ruan Ning. Her eyebrows rose, and she gritted her teeth, saying, “So it’s you! Shameless woman, how dare you use my brother’s clothes!”
Ruan Ning’s exposed body in the bright daylight revealed a slender waist and pale skin that appeared cool but soon burned intensely in the hot air.
Hugging herself in embarrassment, Ruan Ning was quickly pressed against Meng Chi’s body as he exclaimed, “Yao Yao!”
Meng Yao was stunned, never expecting to find such a sight under her brother’s clothes. The image of her mother naked with her father flashed before her, making her feel sick.
Why was her brother protecting her? Was this shameless woman trying to seduce him? While Meng Yao was caught in her thoughts, Meng Chi carried Ruan Ning towards the room. Feeling sour and bitter, she ran after them, cursing, “Brother, how is she dressed like this? She’s simply a [censored] like her mother—so cheap!”
Meng Chi frowned. Wang’s mother had always used harsh words to scold them, and Meng Yao, with her good memory, was resentful. Now, she was using those same words to curse Wang’s daughter.
Shortly after being taken away by Liu Bingchun from Yuanning, Zheng Yu arrived in the capital city. The urgent task was to leave the Meng family and find Zheng Yu.
