Summer 1987

Bam

A heavy object fell from the sky and landed in front of Wen Yu.

"Someone jumped from the building-*

A woman's sharp scream and chaotic footsteps rang out around Wen Yu. Wen Yu opened his mouth and shouted at the corpse in front of him, "Mama......"

These were the last word he ever spoke.

Afterwards, he lost his voice, never speaking another word again.

Half a month later, Wen Yu sat in a room without making a sound. The room had no air conditioning, neither did it have an electric fan. Sitting inside felt like sitting in a steam oven, but he felt like he had the chills.

An overweight woman sat opposite of him, her chubby face was full of sweat. She said with disgust, "I have two kids at home, feeding them is costing me an arm and a leg, how can afford another one?"

"I need to leave for work soon, I can't possibly bring a child along." Another person who was skinny and fanning himself with a palm fan stated.

"Why are you looking at me?" A bald man choked on the beer he was drinking as the other two looked at him. He wiped his mouth and said, "Give me a break, I still want to get a girlfriend, who would want me with this bastard at my side?"

The group was trying to push the responsibility to each other, no one was willing to keep this hot potato. At this moment the door to the room suddenly opened, a relative turned around to look, "Ah, Xiao Ning is here."

Ning Ning stood at the door with a swollen face. She had had no time to change out of the red camisole she was wearing. It was hugging her curvy figure, causing her to exude a vulgar and seductive aura.

She stumbled into the house and looked for a corner to sit down. She opened her bag and brought out a bottle of ointment. She applied it on her leg as she quietly looked at the little boy opposite her.

As she had just arrived, she didn't know much. All she knew was that the mother of the child had just jumped off a building and died. The mother did not have much savings while she was alive, and didn't leave behind much after she died, which was why his relatives were unwilling to raise him.
Not only was she unwilling to raise him, the overweight woman even walked up and grabbed his hair and shook his head non-stop while complaining, "I know you would drag us down, why didn't you die together with your useless mother? You monster!"

....monster?

Ning Ning paused what she was doing. She suddenly stood up and walked towards the overweight woman who was still scolding the boy, then raised the bottle of ointment above the woman's head.

Splash

"Ah!" Drenched from the head, the overweight woman screamed. She turned around and shouted, "Stupid bitch, what are you trying to do?"

Ning Ning laughed at her coldly. The two phrases she currently hated the most now were 'ugly monster' and 'monster. After those, monster was above ugly girl. She smashed the bottle on the table, shattering it. Ning Ning pointed the jagged end towards the woman and laughed. "What are you going to do about it?"

The other two frantically pulled them apart. But even if they didn't do that, the overweight woman would have walked away on her own. Ning Ning's current look was way too scary, like the mouth of a volcano that was about to erupt. The more she smiled, the scarier she seemed.

"Why so violent." The overweight woman softly mumbled as she returned to her seat, "You stupid bitch, don't tell me you want to raise the little monster?"

Ning Ning sat back at her original spot without making a sound as she applied the remaining ointment on her wound. The woman was not wrong. her current body was unsuitable to raise a child.

She transmigrated into the old woman's body in her younger days. Her current self was called Wen Xiao Ning, the aunt of the lead character Wen Yu. She did not expect that the old woman was a sex worker when she was younger. Furthermore, the money that she earned was not for herself, it was to provide for her boyfriend, Hul Huo.

The wounds on her body were fresh from a fight-the things she could endure, were unbearable for Ning Ning.

Ning Ning fought with the boyfriend for a while before she finally knocked him out with a stool. She wiped the blood from her nose, went through the drawers and cupboards, and took anything that was worth even a little bit of money into her bag. She then left her boyfriend's house carrying the bag.

Along the way she asked for directions and had managed to make it just in time to meet with a group of people trying to shirk this responsibility. The overweight woman screamed, "Whom do you want to go with? You should at least say something!"

Ning Ning did not meddle with this. She continued to rub the bruise on her leg. As she was rubbing it she suddenly but slowly raised her head, her eyes following a pair of skinny legs upwards. She looked at the little boy standing in front of her.

He had fine hair and fine eyebrows, looking like a tender and delicate boy. He was standing in front of Ning Ning like a porcelain doll, silently reaching his hand out to her.

"Don't choose me." Ning Ning couldn't help but laugh. "I don't even have the means to provide for you."

But Wen Yu gazed at her quietly, not retracting his outstretched hand.

"Don't choose me." Ning Ning's expression became solemn, she repeated her words again, "I don't even have the means to provide for you."
Because of the previous experience, she didn't intend to form any deep connections with anyone in the movie. She would fulfil Wen Xiao Ning's last wish, to give Wen Yu a hand when he faced danger, but she wouldn't do more for him-because she was scared! Giving in a relationship was too painful, accepting a relationship was too painful, losing a relationship was too painful.
