Han Ruochen, who was in her room, couldn't care less about what her mother was thinking. She had totally forgotten about Yang Jianming and his family. She was now thinking about her second brother, Han Jianyou. That little brat didn't come home again even though it was already the weekend. She wondered if Han Jianyou was with those toxic friends of his. Han Ruochen was worried but there was nothing she could do.
Sighing, she could only close her eyes and go to sleep; she would think about what to do slowly.
The next morning, when she woke up, she went downstairs to bring milk inside. However, she ran into her mother, who, upon seeing her, glared at her as if she were the one who had stolen the family's ten thousand yuan of savings.
Han Ruochen was speechless, but she didn't want to quarrel with her mother. She walked to the door and grabbed the bottle before heading to the kitchen. But just because she ignored Meng Yunhan doesn't mean that the other person was going to ignore her as well. She walked inside the kitchen and looked at Han Ruochen before asking, "Are you going to go to the beach today?"
Ever since Han Ruochen caught those expensive mantises, all Meng Yunhan could think about was nothing but the money that she had lost. If this wretched girl had brought all the money back home, she could have at least stabilised the situation for the time being without getting found out.
Han Ruochen, whose back was turned, sneered coldly. "No." And even if she was going to go to the sea, she was not going to give the money to her mother. Whatever she owed her mother, she had returned it in her past life. Now she owed nothing to her mother.
"Why won't you go!?" Meng Yunhan panicked. She was determined this time around. Meng Yunhan had long planned that as long as Han Ruochen went to the beach, she would snatch her haul. But if Han Ruochen didn't go to the beach, how was she going to do that?
"Because I don't want to. I am not a fisherwoman. Why will I go to the beach every day?" Han Ruochen retorted as she set the milk pot on the stove and turned the heat on. She knew very well what her mother was thinking. But Meng Yunhan might as well continue dreaming because even if she went to the sea, Han Ruochen would never hand over the money that she earned from selling the fish to Meng Yunhan.
What was more, she also needed to treat Han Beijiang's autism. How could she have the time to go to the sea every day? Anyway, the money that she earned after selling the mantis shrimp was enough for her to last a few days.
When Meng Yunhan heard that Han Ruochen was not going to the beach, she puffed up like a puffer fish, but before she could lose her temper with Han Ruochen, Han Yichen came downstairs, and Meng Yunhan had no other choice but to swallow her words and return to the dining room.
Seeing this, Han Ruochen curled her lips. She finished boiling the milk and made some sweet potato porridge for her father and Han Beijiang. As for Meng Yunhan and Han Ziyan? Sorry, she didn't have the heart to do so because she was afraid that if she cooked for them, she might poison them to death!
"Mom, look at her!" When Han Ziyan saw that Han Ruochen had not cooked any porridge for her and had even used up all the milk, she couldn't help but complain to her mother. She had been looking forward to drinking milk all night. She heard from her friends that by drinking milk, their skin became even fairer and smoother. In the past, she couldn't ask her adoptive father to arrange for a milk delivery, as she was portraying herself as a sensible adoptive daughter of the Han family.
But now that Han Ruochen had asked for it, she was determined to take full advantage of it. Who would have thought that Han Ruochen would not leave even a single drop behind, and Han Ziyan didn't dare to steal the milk because Han Ruochen had gotten more and more out of control in the last few days? She was worried that the woman would run to Han Yichen and complain about her again. So, even though the milk bottle was right in front of her, she couldn't drink it. She was angry and upset, but she thought that Han Ruochen would obviously cook for the entire family.
Who would have thought she would only cook for her father and brother and leave her mother and her alone?
Meng Yunhan was also upset. Her face had been pulled into a long expression, but she didn't lose her temper with Han Ruochen. Why? Because she still needed Han Ruochen to sign the letter of understanding!
Mother Yang was not a simple character. If she really asked her cousins to start bullying her maternal family, then those jerks would definitely go looking for her mother in the city, who, in turn, would come looking for her. If her mother came here, then Meng Yunhan was worried that the woman would let the cat slip out of the bag.
There were too many things to consider, and it was all the fault of this wretched daughter of hers. Why didn't she hand over the job to Han Ziyan when they nicely asked her? Why did she create all that drama?
Meng Yunhan not once thought that this job belonged to Han Ruochen, and she got it after working hard for it; certainly, she had no reason to hand it over to Han Ziyan!
"Rise and shine." Han Ruochen knocked on the door of her youngest brother and pushed open the door.
Hearing the voice of his sister, Han Beijiang turned and looked at his sister. He didn't open his mouth to speak, but his eyes were shining with a warm light. It seemed like her brother liked it when others respected his personal space.
