The Tempting Educated Youth Married to a Rough Man
Chapter 400 - 396: Reunion
Xiao Chengguang really plans to take the robber to the police station.
But Wen Ran’s move made the upright young officer at a loss.
He looked at Wen Ran, wanting to speak but holding back.
Wen Ran: "???"
She clutched her pocket, stepped back, and looked cautiously, "What do you want to do?"
"No," Xiao Chengguang said tactfully, "Can’t we just refuse this ill-gotten money?"
Wen Ran: "..."
This damn sense of justice.
She was indeed moved by Xiao Chengguang, but she wasn’t foolish enough to refuse money.
Clutching the pocket, she refused, saying, "What do you mean by ill-gotten money?
Clearly, it’s the compensation for myself. This bastard scared me like this, I take some of his money, what’s wrong with that?!"
Hongguo is Wen Ran’s number one fan, and seeing such things often, she’s already accustomed to it.
She even feels that people who don’t turn the tables on a caught thief are just dumb.
"Exactly, exactly," Hongguo stood up, strongly supporting Wen Ran, "My sister deserves what she takes.
It’s his fault for having a thief’s heart, after all, his skills weren’t good enough, and he got beaten and lost money, serves him right."
Xiao Chengguang: "..."
He was completely speechless.
His eloquence wasn’t great to begin with.
Adding on that Wen Ran and Hongguo aren’t people he can command, he felt helpless and decided to turn a blind eye.
What else can you do?
Life is just muddling through, making do and moving forward is good enough.
Why bother with those troubles.
Messing around just messes with yourself.
"Alright," Xiao Chengguang conceded, helplessly, "You two go home first, I’ll take this guy to the police station and be back."
"Alrighty~"
Wen Ran happily agreed, waving to Xiao Chengguang, "Go quickly and come back, maybe you can catch a hot meal."
"Okay."
The security around here is pretty good, after all, the police station is not far away.
Besides, there’s a university nearby, and the security guards have metal gear on their waists.
Logically speaking, the security should be really good.
At least, it should be among the top.
After all, not many are dumb enough to run wild in front of the King of Hell.
But...
Wen Ran has encountered two robberies in less than two months here.
For a moment, Wen Ran didn’t know if she was lucky or unlucky.
"Forget it," she has a good quality, her emotions come and go quickly.
Feeling melancholy for a moment, then she was happy again.
She took out the money from her pocket and began to share it with Hongguo.
Hongguo: "!"
She looked surprised and delighted, "Sis, I don’t want it, you keep it."
"Take it, just keep it," Wen Ran was indifferent about the money, her worth is quite substantial.
She calmly said, "Home is poor and the road is rich, you’re still a kid, where else are you going to get money."
Boys can be handled, they’re tough.
Girls, if you don’t spend money on raising them, there are old men outside eager to help raise them.
Wen Ran thought about it, she’s already put a lot of effort into it.
No need to ruin the girl’s future over a couple of bucks.
Some crooked paths can’t be avoided.
But some obvious ones, there’s no need to go through them again.
"Sis isn’t an outsider, if I give it to you, just take it, with money in hand, you won’t panic."
Wen Ran stuffed the money into Hongguo’s hand and started walking home with her hand in hers.
Along the way, she didn’t forget to give advice, "Remember, Sis is the closest person you have in life.
If you don’t tell me about things, who else can you tell?"
Hongguo obediently replied, "Sis, I know."
"You don’t know," Wen Ran repeated: "Sis’s worth is amazing, eat and drink as much as you like, how much can’t you get?
Remember, at home we have plenty of food and drink, if there’s someone at school trying to do weird things, remember to refuse them all."
She doesn’t oppose romance, what she opposes is being kept!
Actually, she knows that Hongguo won’t end up that way, given the girl’s smartness is all in her studies.
She’s not afraid of much, just the unexpected.
If really something goes wrong, she won’t have a place to cry, so better to prevent it early.
A little effect is better than none.
Advising all the way, it wasn’t even three minutes.
When they got home, Bai Zhenzhu was in the yard tidying up, when she saw Wen Ran, her eyes lit up.
She was thrilled, "Oh my! Shilan, come quickly!
Come out and see who’s here!"
"Who is it, making such a fuss."
Seeing her daughter and son with the whole family, Song Shilan’s smile didn’t fade.
When she pulled open the curtain and saw Wen Ran and Hongguo standing at the door, she joyfully exclaimed.
She hurried over, "Aren’t you supposed to be at military training? Why are you back now? Have you eaten? I’ll make you some good food."
"I haven’t eaten yet," Wen Ran wasn’t pretending with Mrs. Xiao, she frankly said, "Mom, I’m really hungry this time.
Just make some noodles."
Although handmade noodles are delicious, Wen Ran was afraid she’d be starving by the time they were ready.
She continued, peeking around, "Didn’t my sister and brother-in-law bring Minmin back?"
Her composed demeanor made Wen Ran question if Xiao Chengguang was fooling with her.
At the mention of Xiao Chenyue, Mrs. Xiao slapped her forehead, "Look at me with my poor memory, as soon as you come back, I instinctively head to the kitchen."
Today, it’s completely unnecessary.
In the morning when going out, Xiao Chengguang made a pledge to bring Wen Ran and Hongguo back, so the whole family could reunite.
Xiao Chenyue swept aside the curtain and walked out, smiling brightly, "Ranran, long time no see."
"Long time no see," Wen Ran smiled, then her gaze dropped near Xiao Chenyue’s feet.
There, nervously stood a little girl.
With rosy cheeks and white teeth, she had her hair in little pigtails, looking like a doll from a New Year painting.
"Minmin," Wen Ran’s expression softened, "Do you still remember Auntie?"
She bent over, stretched out her hands, and said the words that had been rehearsed countless times in her mind, "When you were little, I held you!"
Upon hearing this, Minmin released her arm from Xiao Chenyue’s leg and confidently walked over to Wen Ran.
Obediently, "Auntie."
Wen Ran’s heart nearly melted, gosh, this is simply a little angel, much better than the two debt-collectors she gave birth to.
Whenever they’re unhappy, they scream and cry aloud.
Wen Ran was very moved but not for long.
Because, she realized this little brat Minmin, not only looked pleasing, but personality-wise, her behavior had nothing to do with being obedient, it was completely unrelated.
