Chapter 153: End of the Show
Qin Mian added, “Ay, Zhou Yu, I know that your family is suffering now, but you cannot think of relying on our family. Of course, I will try to help within my power. After all, you’re a good friend of Qin Jiaojiao.”
The moment Qin Mian said that, the crowd began to criticize Zhou Yu. In their opinion, the truth was out. This young lady found that her family’s living conditions were bad and wanted to rely on others for aid.
Zhou Yu’s eyes sparkled with anger. Qin Mian was right; when she returned to the Qin family today, Qin Hanmo had told her that he found her family and they were in the east. Zhou Yu remembered that the east side was where the poor people lived, and the houses were small and very unsafe. During this month alone, she had already heard of several robberies that had happened there.
How could she possibly go to the east?
Zhou Yu clenched her teeth and was about to explain herself when two figures appeared.
A woman in an oversized shirt hugged her and cried, “Ah-Yu, where have you been all this time? Mommy had a hard time looking for you!”
Zhou Yu was taken aback, “Mom?”
That woman was indeed her mother, Yang Mei, but Zhou Yu avoided her slightly. Yang Mei had a foul smell on her body, as if she hadn’t bathed in days.
Zhou Yu knitted her brows and pushed Yang Mei away, “Mom, let go of me first.”
Yang Mei smiled, “Alright, alright. Ah-Yu, why are you so much skinnier now?”
Yang Mei looked at Zhou Yu. Yang Mei only had one daughter, whom she had pampered since she was little. When the apocalypse happened, her daughter was out shopping with her friends and their family left in a hurry, so they didn’t have time to look for her.
Who could have known that they would be robbed during their journey? And the fact that they didn’t have any ability users in their family didn’t help at all. From there, they rented a small place and settled in that area. When someone came to look for them told her that her daughter was here, she hurriedly rushed over with her father.
Yang Mei looked at Qin Mian gratefully and kept thanking him, “Thank you so much for saving my Ah-Yu.”
“Mom, they didn’t save me,” Zhou Yu watched as Yang Mei bowed towards the Qin family, wanting to stop Yang Mei.
Zhou Yu’s father, Zhou Haitao, pulled Zhou Yu back just in time and glared at her fiercely, then smiled towards Qin Mian, “That’s right, that’s right, thank you so much! Why don’t we treat you to a meal next time?”
Qin Mian smiled and waved, but inside his warm phoenix eyes was a layer of ice.
“There’s no need for that. She’s Jiaojiao’s good friend, it’s only right that we help her. Alright, it’s getting late. We won’t hold you guys back anymore, go back and have a good rest everyone.”
“Ay, ay,” Zhou Haitao smiled and agreed, then dragged the reluctant Zhou Yu away. When the crowd saw that it was over, they left as well.
In the Qin family, Qin Hanmo, who had driven Zhou Yu away, was in a very good mood. He rubbed Qin Jiaojiao’s head and asked Qin Mian, “Dad, where’s big brother?”
Qin Mian massaged his temples wearily and glanced at his younger son, who couldn’t contain his emotions at all. “He went out for a mission and won’t be back tonight. Oh right, is your mom asleep?”
For the livelihood of the family, all three of them had chosen different missions. Qin Hanmo came back earlier than Qin Mian, but he hadn’t seen Sun Zhilan.
The joy on Qin Hanmo’s face disappeared at the mention of his mother, a hint of worry between his brows, “She’s asleep, but dad, we can’t go on like this. Mom needs medicine.”
