She originally thought that with their relationship with the Ruan Family, they definitely wouldnât ask for money, so staying here was carefree. Little did she know, the Ruan Family is so stingy, they actually asked them for money.
Theyâve been living here since early August, nearly a week now. With the accommodation including service fees and other costs, itâs over six hundred, which is higher than their monthly salary!
Looking at the expensive bill, Mrs. Hongâs face was already unpleasant, and now hearing Mr. Hongâs complaints made her even angrier. She raised her voice and shouted, "Why didnât you say anything when we first moved in? What good is complaining now? Besides, who knew the Ruan Family had their eyes on money so bad, even we have to pay!"
"Didnât Ruan Jun say heâs the manager of this hotel and oversees several others? Doesnât he have any authority at all? The room would be empty if weâre not staying, weâre his in-laws, whatâs wrong with us staying?"
The more Mrs. Hong spoke, the angrier she got. The expensive bill was one thing, but what she couldnât accept was the Ruan Family even asking them for money.
Mrs. Hong was furious and couldnât help but want to confront Ruan Jun right now, but after falling out with the Ruan Family last night, she was afraid that if she made the call first they would think she was showing weakness, so she had to bottle up her anger until over an hour later, Ruan Jun and Hong Ping came over.
Seeing Hong Ping and Ruan Jun standing at the door, Mrs. Hong was just about to snap, but before she could speak, she heard Hong Ping say, "Mom and Dad, Ajun and I have booked a train for you at eight tonight, you should pack up this afternoon."
"What!" Mrs. Hong raised her head in disbelief, "Hong Ping, what do you mean? Are you kicking us out? Has your conscience been eaten by a dog? We raised you this much and this is how you treat us?!"
After scolding Hong Ping, she turned to Ruan Jun, picked up the previous bill from the shoe rack at the entrance, and threw it in his face: "Have you gone crazy for money! Youâre even asking us for money!"
The bill was clipped to a wooden clipboard, which had some weight, and when thrown, it hit directly on Ruan Junâs nose, leaving a red mark.
Ruan Jun lowered his eyes, not dodging.
Beside him, Hong Pingâs eyes turned red with distress, but Mrs. Hong didnât give her a chance to speak and turned back to the room, angrily packing up, "Iâm not a shameless person, weâll just consider this daughter as dead, weâre leaving now!"
Next door, the deeply shocked Hong Ling heard the commotion, opened the door and came over, seeing the scene, hurriedly asked Hong Ping, "Sis, whatâs going on this time..."
"Whatâs going on! Your sister has grown wings, sheâs kicking us out. Stop wasting your breath, from now on sheâs not your sister anymore, go pack your bags!" After that, she pushed the still curious Hong Ling into the room, opened the wardrobe and just shoved clothes inside haphazardly.
Mr. Hong stood at the door, urgently speaking to Hong Ping, "Pingping, persuade your mother, mothers and daughters shouldnât hold grudges overnight, Pingping..."
Mrs. Hong, who was busy packing Hong Lingâs belongings, gradually slowed down, seemingly waiting for Hong Ping to soften her stance, but after waiting for a while and no response, she realized her daughter was truly determined to send them home. Suddenly her heart felt as if it fell into an ice cellar, cold and heartbroken, her expression extremely unpleasant.
Until the Hong Family trio finished packing up their bags, Hong Ping didnât utter a word to persuade them to stay.
