Chapter 3333: You Should Have Your Own Judgment
When people’s fates clashed, they could never see eye to eye.
They weren’t like family, weren’t like a father and daughter, and were more like enemies.
Ma Lanlan walked out with the cup and said to Ning Shu, “Dad asked me if you were involved with some random man.”
Ning Shu: Sigh. Why does he never learn?
An eight-year-old child already had her own awareness, and already understood certain things.
Looking at Ma Lanlan, Ning Shu said, “You should have your own judgment. You know what kind of person your mother is.”
Ma Lanlan said, “Of course I believe you. Why does he never consider your feelings and say things like that?”
“Because he doesn’t care. If he doesn’t care, then there’s no need to consider my feelings,” Ning Shu said as she scooped the ribs into a bowl.
“But you don’t have to feel hopeless. Not everyone is like your father,” Ning Shu said. “For every bad person, there’s a good one. I just happened to meet a bad one. In the future, Lanlan will surely meet only good people.”
“And even if you don’t, you’ll still live well.”
If she couldn’t win with morality, then she would win with strength. As long as she was strong, she wouldn’t fear any storm.
“Stupid,” Ma Lanlan blurted out. “Why don’t you just leave? I don’t want to live with him.”
Not having a father at all was better than having a father like this.
Ning Shu smiled. “It’s not time yet.”
She carried the food into the room and said to Ma Yongjun, “Eat.”
Ma Yongjun hesitated before picking up the food.
Ning Shu said, “Relax, I wouldn’t waste pesticide on you.”
It wouldn’t be fun if he died so easily.
Ma Yongjun’s face darkened.
Aside from picking up and dropping off the kids, doing laundry, and cooking, Ning Shu had another job.
Borrowing money from Ma Yongjun’s drinking buddies every day.
“Yongjun said you guys are sworn brothers, brothers through life and death. Now that he’s seriously ill and bedridden, you should lend him a hand.”
At first, these people treated her like a beggar, tossing her a ten or twenty.
Ning Shu put on a worried face and said, “A bottle of imported medicine costs several hundred. This isn’t enough. If he stops taking his meds, his heart won’t be able to take it.”
Anyone who had ever eaten at the same table, drunk together, or partied with Ma Yongjun—
Ning Shu would go door to door, asking for money.
“Yongjun said you’re all good brothers, that you’d take a knife for each other. He said as long as he came to you for help, you’d solve his problems.”
She didn’t get much money, but soon, people started avoiding her the moment they saw her—because as soon as she appeared, she’d ask to borrow money.
Some outright said, “I’m not even really friends with Ma Yongjun. We’ve just talked a few times and played mahjong together.”
As Ma Yongjun lay at home recovering, not a single person visited him. Everyone distanced themselves.
Because the moment they got involved with Ma Yongjun, his wife would latch on like a leech, asking for money again and again.
While Ma Yongjun was sick at home, not one of his so-called “brothers” came by to visit—not even with a little fruit.
In a way, Ma Yongjun’s social connections were completely severed.
Even when he called his “friends,” they either dodged his calls or outright blocked him.
They were just drinking buddies—without alcohol and meat, the group naturally fell apart.
Meanwhile, Ning Shu started preparing for her own small business. She used up all her money to buy a small cart and began selling breakfast.
