Calling the police? That would be useless.

As long as she lived in this house, she would never be able to escape this fate.

The neighbors had tried to help by calling the police before.

But after the police detained Qian Shengqian, the abuse she received escalated.

Since then, no one dared to help her call the police anymore.

“Sister, if you really want to help me, there is something I want to ask of you…” Qian Zhaodi lifted her gaze towards Ni Yang, hesitating to continue.

Ni Yang said, “Zhaodi, don’t be afraid. Just speak openly. As long as it’s something I can assist with, I’ll definitely help.”

Qian Zhaodi hesitated for a moment and then said, “Sister, could you lend me some money?”

Ni Yang asked, “How much do you need?”

“I need to borrow a hundred yuan, is that okay?” When she said this, Qian Zhaodi’s voice gradually lowered.

A hundred yuan was not a small sum, would Ni Yang lend it to her, who was only twelve years old?

It seemed unlikely, right?

Qian Zhaodi bit her lip.

Ni Yang reached into her pocket and said, “I have 235 yuan left here. You can take it all.”

Before going to the Vegetable Market, Ni Yang had put away all the day’s profit, leaving just 261 yuan for spending. She had just spent 26 yuan on groceries, so she had 235 yuan left.

Although she didn’t know what Qian Zhaodi needed the money for, she knew that Qian Zhaodi must desperately need this money, otherwise, she would not have asked for it.

Moreover, Qian Zhaodi and Ni Yang shared the same fate. Seeing Qian Zhaodi reminded Ni Yang of her own past, she couldn’t bear to reject her.

Qian Zhaodi clutched the 230 yuan tightly in her hand, swallowing hard before saying, “Sister, thank you.”

Ni Yang then handed over the bag of noodles to Qian Zhaodi, “Zhaodi, here are some noodles. There’s also a tube of Burn Ointment in the bag. Apply it on your scars before you sleep every night, it’s good for your burns.”

“Thank you, sister.” Qian Zhaodi’s eyes reddened instantly, she wanted to hug Ni Yang, but her clothes were dirty and tattered, and she was afraid of dirtying Ni Yang’s clothes.

As if reading Qian Zhaodi’s mind, Ni Yang reached out to hug her, “You’re welcome, Zhaodi. If you ever run into any trouble, just tell me directly.”

Qian Zhaodi held her head against Ni Yang’s shoulder, sobbing softly.

For many years to come, she would never forget this moment.

“Don’t cry anymore.” Ni Yang caressed her head, whispering to comfort her.

…

The next afternoon, when Ni Yang saw Qian Zhaodi again, her bruises had faded considerably, looking less terrifying than the day before.

As before, Ni Yang brought noodles for Qian Zhaodi and also bought flowers.

Watching Ni Yang’s retreating figure, deeply, Qian Zhaodi bowed.

Her eyes filled with unspoken emotions.

Sister, thank you.

After Ni Yang left, Qian Zhaodi took out a penny and went to the shop to buy ten fruit candies.

Then, she asked the old man who swept the train station to help her buy a train ticket.

After she finished these tasks, she went home.

Since it was still early, Zhao Xiaoxi and Qian Shengqian had gone to work in the field and hadn’t returned yet, leaving Qian Wangcai sitting at the doorstep.

“Wasteful brat, finally home! I’m hungry! Cook me something now!”

“Has mom and dad not come back yet?” Qian Zhaodi looked inside.

“Wasteful brat, worthless runt! I’m telling you to cook for me! Are you deaf?”

The hand Qian Zhaodi hid in her sleeve clenched into a fist. Speaking in a low voice, she said, “Wancai, do you want candy?”

Qian Wangcai bellowed, “Wasteful brat! You dare to eat candy behind mom and dad’s back! Speak! Did you steal money? I’m going to tell mom and dad right now, let them beat you to death, you worthless runt!”

“No, no, Wangcai, you misunderstood. I didn’t steal the money, I found my candy up on the mountain, look.” Qian Zhaodi slowly opened her hand, revealing a piece of candy still covered in dirt.

“Candy!” Qian Wangcai snatched the candy, unwrapped it and stuffed it into his mouth, “You little runt, where did you find this candy!”

“Just up on the mountain,” answered Qian Zhaodi.

“Then take me there now!”

“Okay,” Qian Zhaodi nodded, leading Qian Wangcai towards the mountain.

Qian Zhaodi led Qian Wangcai deep into the forest, pointing to a spot amongst the foliage, she said, “Wangcai, look, the candy is over there.”

Fearing that Qian Zhaodi would snatch the candies, Qian Wangcai immediately dashed over to pick them up.
