Reborn in the 60s and adopted

Chapter 145 Behind the Indifference

"I'm his wife." A beautiful woman's face was full of sorrow, and a child of about ten years old was standing next to her.

"Hello!" Tang Mei tried to hold back her tears and said with a choked voice, "Please rest assured, no one will insult or bully you in the Bayi Team anymore." She stared at the group of people in front of her, her heart full of sorrow. Once upon a time, they were all the proud children of heaven who received much attention!

At this moment, the hearts of others were filled with mixed emotions. During these days, they had gone through hardships, become prisoners, and suffered unbearable humiliation.

Many ambitious and courageous people could not bear such torture and chose to commit suicide. However, the remaining group of people are still alive because they can't let go of their relatives at home.

Now, when they met Tang Mei, the daughter of the deputy village chief, they couldn't help but want to curry favor with her. Even if they couldn't get any substantial help, they just wanted to stop being persecuted and live in peace.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Voices of gratitude rang out one after another, and the eyes of these people showed sincere gratitude. In such a difficult and dangerous time, being able to obtain a safe shelter is undoubtedly a blessing from heaven for them. They deeply know that this luck is hard-won and will cherish it even more.

"You guys should have a good chat. We old guys can't stand it any longer. We have to go back and rest first!" How discerning is Old Man Gu? He could tell at a glance that these people had known each other for a long time and it was not appropriate for them to stand here and act as light bulbs at this moment. So he said hello very tactfully and prepared to leave with his family.

"Yes, take care, Old Man. You should also rest early!" Zhou Shanshan was hoping that no one would disturb her reunion with Wang Ran. Upon hearing this, she quickly responded and said that she also agreed to let Old Man Gu and others leave early.

After watching Old Man Gu leave, Zhou Shanshan grabbed Wang Ran's hand and hurriedly dragged her to sit on the shabby wooden bed that was barely big enough for someone to sleep on.

Wang Ran looked around at this extremely simple house, and a feeling of sadness welled up in his heart - thinking back to the past, when Aunt Lin went out every time, she would ride in a car, and the house was full of antique and high-end furniture; but now... she can only live in such a shabby house, and even the bed she sleeps on is so dilapidated...

On the other side, Tang Mei also didn't want to disturb the two people's reminiscing and chatting, so she stood outside the house quietly waiting for Wang Ran to come out.

"Aunt, you have suffered..." Wang Ren said with a choked voice, tears streaming down his cheeks uncontrollably.

Zhou Shanshan felt sad when she saw this, but she didn't want the atmosphere to get any more serious, so she quickly changed the subject: "How did the little girl outside know Xiaoxiao? Tell me about it!"

Wang Ran nodded and slowly told Tang Mei's story, starting from her original family, and talking about how she met Lin Xiao and how they got along with each other. Tang Mei and Xiao Xiao's daily teasing and bickering made Zhou Shanshan, who was originally a little worried, gradually show a trace of heartache on her face.

However, when she heard the interesting interactions between the two, Zhou Shanshan couldn't help laughing so hard that she could hardly close her mouth.

Lin Yunshen watched all this quietly. He had rarely seen his wife so happy in recent months. At this moment, he had a deeper understanding of Tang Mei and couldn't help but feel a liking for this kind and lovely girl.

At this time, Lin Yunshen interrupted and said, "Well, she is indeed a good kid." His words revealed his admiration for Tang Mei.

"Ran Ran, it's getting late. You should go home early tonight and have a rest. If there is a chance in the future, we can have a good chat. But remember, during the day, we have to pretend that we don't know each other." Zhou Shanshan looked up at the sky. The night was as dark as ink. She sighed inwardly. If it were in the past, she could have kept Wang Ran here overnight, but now... that's it. There's no point in saying more.

Wang Ran hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to ask: "Aunt, I always feel that Brother Yunkun seems to have changed a lot, and is very different from before." In the past, even if Brother Yunkun was in a bad mood, he would at least smile at her. However, at this moment, he seemed to isolate himself thousands of miles away, cold and indifferent.

After hearing this, Zhou Shanshan couldn't help but sigh heavily: "You should know that both father-in-law and mother-in-law have passed away, which is undoubtedly a heavy blow to him. And that Sun Xingxi is the one that your brother Yunkun has been pursuing for many years. Their relationship was originally very delicate and was in the ambiguous stage.

The parents of both sides have already met, and our family has even started preparing for the wedding. Who could have expected such a sudden change in the family? Your brother Yunkun wanted to go to her and said he didn't want to delay her and discuss the cancellation of the engagement. But she didn't wait for your brother Yunkun to say anything and pretended that they didn't know each other at all. She even said that your brother Yunkun was pestering her and refused to let her leave. There were some more unpleasant things, but I won't say them. Just like that, your brother Yunkun's heart was hurt."

Wang Ran felt relieved after hearing this. Wouldn't Brother Yunkun be single again? Would he accept her?

"Ran Ran, Ran Ran..." Zhou Shanshan called softly, and at the same time stretched out her fingers and gently waved them in front of Wang Ran's eyes. Wang Ran's eyes gradually focused, and he was pulled back to reality from his thoughts.

She looked at Zhou Shanshan in a daze, and after a while she realized, "Aunt, what's wrong?"

Zhou Shanshan smiled and said, "It's getting late, you should go home. It's getting dark outside, and Tang Mei is still waiting for you, don't make her anxious. Besides, it's not safe outside at night, so it's better to go home early."

Wang Ran nodded to show that she understood. Then she stood up and said goodbye to Zhou Shanshan: "Then I'll go first. Goodbye, auntie."

Zhou Shanshan also stood up and warned: "Be careful on the road!"

"Okay, I understand." Wang Ran replied.

Then, she and Tang Mei walked out of the door together and set out on the road home. The moonlight at night was like water, sprinkling on the ground, creating a layer of silver light. The two of them walked side by side, chatting and enjoying the quiet atmosphere.

As they walked, they got closer and closer to home. Finally, they arrived at the door of their home, said goodnight to each other, and then went into their own homes. Wang Ran closed the door, feeling deeply moved.
