Chapter 16 The Resilient Wen Nuan

"Wen Nuan, I'm waiting for you to come and beg me," Fang Liucheng said. Then he turned around, got into the car, and drove away in a cloud of dust.

Wen Nuan was utterly exhausted. With a tired look on her face, she finally let out a sigh of relief.

She felt so bitter in her heart. Why was life so tiring? Couldn't even God give her a chance to catch her breath?

In just one day, first Ye Feimo, and then Fang Liucheng, had worn Wen Nuan out both physically and mentally, as if all her strength had been drained away.

"Sis, are you okay?" Wen Jing asked with a worried look on her face.

Wen Nuan shook her head slightly, then raised her hand and gently rubbed her sister's head.

Her voice was a bit hoarse as she asked, "Where's mom?"

"Mom is asleep. If she saw Fang Liucheng, her condition might worsen," Wen Jing replied.

"Mom is ill?" Wen Nuan's voice instantly became sharp, her eyes filled with anxiety.

"She has a high fever," Wen Jing said hurriedly.

"I've already bought medicine for her. Mom said she would be fine after a sleep."

After experiencing so many changes in a row, anyone would be overwhelmed. What's more, it's mom,who had always lived a pampered life, never having to do much housework over the years.

The night was as thick as ink.

This was a poor old neighborhood, and the lights were dim and yellow, as if they could go out at any moment.

Wen Nuan could no longer hold back the overwhelming grief in her heart. She slowly crouched down, covered her face with her hands, and tears silently trickled out from between her fingers. "What should I do? Jing, I'm so useless. I can't protect you guys.

I'm really good for nothing..."

Dad's court trial was coming up in a few days. The lawyer had already clearly told their mother and daughter that with conclusive evidence, it was almost impossible to reverse the case.

Dad was likely to face more than ten years in prison, and they could only try to get a lighter sentence.

Mom was ill, and the three of them were now crammed into this shabby place. They had little money left. Fang Liucheng was pressing on them like a devil, showing no mercy.

Moreover, the summer vacation was coming to an end soon, and school would start again. They still had no idea where to get the tuition fees for her and Wen Jing.

The burden of life was like huge mountains, the pain of heartbreak was like sharp knives,

the confusion after losing her virginity in a daze, and Fang Liucheng's endless persecution, along with their parents' tragic situation, all weighed heavily on her thin shoulders.

Wen Nuan was filled with bitterness and had no way to express it.

"Sis, I've decided to drop out of school," Wen Jing said, biting her lips.

"No way!" Wen Nuan refused without hesitation, her voice stern. She quickly wiped away her tears and looked at her sister with determined eyes.

"I will find a way. I will never let you drop out of school."

"But, sis..." Wen Jing tried to say something more.

"This is not up for discussion!"

There was an unwavering determination and courage in Wen Nuan's eyes, like a fire ignited in the darkness. She had just encountered some setbacks,

and she firmly believed that she could get through this. She surely could!

Fang Liucheng, you just wait!

A City is not a place where you can have absolute control!
