Chapter 560: Chapter 582: Very Angry
âMom, letâs return the money to sister! It hasnât been easy for her to make money, and sheâs already sent so many nice things home. We shouldnât be taking her money.â
âOkay, I was planning to use it as her dowry,â Shen Luhua had already planned this but hadnât mentioned it, as it was not easy for a stepmother to speak up.
After all, actions speak louder than words. What she was most worried about was that Xu Qigang had repaid the debt without telling Ningning, and she hadnât mentioned it either. She wondered if Ningning would be upset if she found out, given her stubborn personality.
As for Sheng Ningâs reaction, there was no doubt about it.
She was definitely going to be very upset.
Suddenly, the door burst open, and the two people in the courtyard looked up and were stunned.
ââŠYouâre back?â Sheng An wanted to call her sister, but then remembered she hadnât officially forgiven her yet, so she quickly swallowed the word.
âWhy did Ningning come back early without telling us? We could have picked you up,â Shen Luhua put down the peanuts and welcomed her inside. âDonât just stand there; you look pale from the cold outside.â
âI got off early for the holidays.â Sheng Ning suppressed her anger and tried to calm herself. Once inside the house and after setting down her belongings, she said, âMom, please tell me what has been going on. Donât keep me in the dark; I donât like it when you hide things from me.â
This girl, she had indeed heard.
Shen Luhua sighed, realizing she couldnât hide it any longer, and carefully explained the situation. Fearing her daughterâs impulsive reaction, she added, âDonât be upset. Qigang did it for your sake. This is a sign of his love.â
Sheng Ning took a deep breath, trying hard to contain her anger, her hands trembling uncontrollably. âMom, Iâve already said I would pay back the money. I have to be the one to repay it, do you understand?â That five thousand yuan was the starting point of her life-altering journey in her rebirth, not just for her but also for Anâan.
Repaying this five thousand yuan was of significant importance to her; there was absolutely no room for compromise.
If she couldnât repay the money on her own, how could she change her fate, let alone the fate of her entire family?
Shen Luhua and Sheng An watched as her pale face tinged with green, their hearts pounding.
âNingning, please donât be angry. Itâs all my fault. I took it upon myself to ask Qigang to repay the money; itâs all on me.â When she made the request, she hadnât expected Xu Qigang could really bring the money. Five thousand yuan was no small sum, and Xu Xianxiong hadnât made much money over the years; she had just voiced a concern.
But Xu Qigang had indeed managed to get the money, and he had handled the matter very efficiently.
She had underestimated Xu Qigangâs achievements and his stature within the rescue world.
The news had come so suddenly; it had caused a huge stir in her heart. Her head buzzed, her vision darkened, and her body staggered, nearly fainting.
âSister⊠sister, whatâs wrong?â Anâan supported her, full of worry.
Sheng An forced her eyes open, gazing into Anâanâs concerned eyes, and managed a weak smile, âIâm okay.â What else could she say? She couldnât blame Shen Luhua; she was doing it for her good.
In this life, she had once sworn to honor her for a lifetime.
âI want to rest a bit.â Sheng Ning was still weak from her recent injuries.
âOkay, Iâll help you.â
The two of them carefully helped Sheng Ning to lie down on the bed.
âDonât worry too much. Itâs just anemia, nothing serious.â
