The room fell silent once again. Cheng Anyue looked at the big bowl of beef noodles in front of her and took a bite with her chopsticks. Although she didn’t have much of an appet.i.te, she felt that this was the best beef noodles she had ever eaten. Her cold heart seemed to have regained some warmth.
After eating two mouthfuls of noodles, she took the bowl to the kitchen to wash it, then came back to wipe the table clean, and finally opened the door and went out.

Mama song treated her very well, but she knew that this wasn’t her safe haven.
It wasn’t like Mama song hadn’t spoken up for her in the past, and Zhou Jing had lectured her several times. She didn’t want to get her into trouble.
After leaving the neighborhood, Cheng Anyue walked forward aimlessly. She couldn’t go to school and couldn’t go home. It was as if there was no place for her in this city.
The sunlight was a little strong, and the glaring sunlight made her even dizzier.
She didn’t know how long she had been walking, but she felt her strength being pulled away bit by bit, and her body was burning hot.
When she walked to the side of the street, she saw a shop selling cold drinks. She walked over.
When she reached the door, she noticed a job notice on the wall outside.
Ten hours a day, that was three thousand Yuan a month, and two meals included.
An idea suddenly popped up in her mind. Didn’t her parents abandon her because they lacked money? Would they change their minds if she made money?
The more she thought about it, the more Cheng Anyue felt that this method was feasible.
She walked into the shop and asked the lady behind the bar,””Sister, are you hiring?”
The young lady sized Cheng Anyue up and asked,””Little girl, you’re looking for a job?”
“En!” Cheng Anyue nodded.”Sister, do you think I’m okay?”
“You look so small.” The young lady was a little hesitant.
“I can ‘t?” Cheng Anyue looked at her with disappointment.”I’m going to be 17 soon. I can do anything.”
“But shouldn’t children your age be in high school?”
“Something happened to my family and I need money.” Cheng Anyue lowered her head as she spoke.
The young lady looked at her and could tell that she was not lying. She thought for a moment and said,””Alright then, come over tomorrow and try it out.”
“I want to study today, can I?” Cheng Anyue said.
The young lady looked at her serious expression and nodded.”That’s fine too.”
“Thank you, sister.” Cheng Anyue’s face finally revealed a smile, full of grat.i.tude.
The young lady saw that her expression was not right and asked,””Are you alright?”
“I’m fine,”she said. Cheng Anyue shook her head.”Maybe she didn’t rest well yesterday.”
The young lady nodded.”Let me know if you’re feeling uncomfortable.”
However, she imagined a scene where a little girl had to drop out of school and work in order to save her seriously ill parents.
“Alright!”
Cheng Anyue studied in the store for the whole day. In the afternoon, the store manager was worried that her body couldn’t take it, so she asked her to go back first.
As the sun set, Cheng Anyue looked at the evening glow on the horizon and felt extremely happy.
She had found a job and could earn money, so she didn’t have to leave home.
When she reached the 12th floor, she felt that something was wrong because she saw two Men in Black suits and sungla.s.ses standing in the corridor.
Moreover, the two of them looked familiar, as if they had seen each other somewhere before.
Seeing her coming over, the two men immediately said,””Miss!”
Cheng Anyue’s expression changed slightly. As expected, it was someone from the an family.
She suddenly realized something and walked straight to the door of her house.
She rang the doorbell, and soon someone opened the door. It was Zhou Jing.
When Zhou Jing saw her, she didn’t throw a tantrum. Instead, she smiled and said,””An Yue, you’re back.”
