Seeing that Ruan Tian had really called the police, Mother Zhou was so angry that her face turned white and then blue. She raised her hand and pointed a shaking finger at Ruan Tian and sputtered “You… you… you…” but couldn’t squeeze any more words out in her rage.
Meanwhile, having received Ruan Tian’s call, the police station sent someone to her house promptly.
When Mother Zhou saw that a man in a police uniform had really arrived, her vision swayed and she saw black splotches everywhere, and she nearly fainted right there in front of Ruan Tian.
She was so angry that she looked like she might spit fire or smoke might start coming out of her ears.
In fact, Ruan Tian hadn’t wanted to completely burn this bridge and tear off all face between them like this.
She had been content to let them walk their road while she walked her own.
However, this time, Mother Zhou was the one who had come to her looking for trouble.
In order to prevent Mother Zhou from really fainting out of anger, Ruan Tian poured her a cup of warm water and said politely: “Please send all of my furniture back intact within one hour, otherwise, I will have to trouble the policeman here to go and fetch it for me.”
Mother Zhou finally staggered away and climbed into her car.
And, before an hour had passed, all of Ruan Tian’s furniture was sent back.
A bit later, a barefoot Ruan Tian leaned back in her sofa with a muddled expression on her face.
She really hadn’t expected how happy angering Mother Zhou this time had made her.
It felt almost as good as when she saw Zhou Xiaoqiao facing big setbacks publicly.

First Shen Shu, then her mother, they had both showed up at her house one after another recently, which prompted Ruan Tian to begin seriously consider moving.
By now, she finally had a small amount of money in her hands, probably enough to move to a better neighborhood and rent a better apartment.
So she reached out to Jiang Lili for help, and in response, her friend sent her many links with suggestions, but all of them were high-end communities.
“TianBaby, you’re already a third or fourth tier star now, you can’t live in such a slum anymore. Treat yourself a little better, okay?”
Ruan Tian scratched her head and said awkwardly: “I’m afraid that I just don’t have enough money.”
Jiang Lili realized that this was a big problem. She thought about it for a long time with a serious expression before finally saying, “I know! You should just go find that Shen Shu. Rich people need face too, he can’t really divorce you and not give you even a penny.”
Jiang Lili gritted her teeth and growled: “You should suck him dry! Drink his blood, eat his meat, and gnaw his bones! Spend all of his money!”
Ruan Tian began to think seriously about the feasibility of this matter.
While on the one hand, she did have a desire for more money, on the other hand, her desire to never see Shen Shu’s face again was much bigger!
“I’ll think about it.” She replied noncommittally.
After that, Jiang Lili spent the rest of the afternoon brainwashing her, telling her all about how important it was to live in a good place.
Eventually, Ruan Tian felt moved by her brainwashing.
Thus, she quickly found a new place in a high-end community, signed the contract, paid the deposit, and then used Jiang Lili’s car to move all of her belongings over.
However, Ruan Tian should have remembered that she was still the vicious secondary female lead that was unfavored by the author.
Because of that, her life was fated to be full of storms.
When Ruan Tian knocked on her next door neighbor’s door and unexpectedly saw Qin Yu’s face after the door opened, there was only one thought in her mind:
One of them was definitely going to die today.
Ruan Tian clutched the food box in her hands and suddenly felt a bit powerless, “You live here?”
Qin Yu raised an eyebrow, but there wasn’t a single trace of surprise on his face, as if he had expected this development.
“En.”
He was wearing casual clothes and he put his hands in his pockets as he leaned against the doorframe lazily. Looking like this, his usual aura of coldness seemed slightly reduced. He looked at the food that Ruan Tian was holding and asked slowly: “Is that for me?”
Ruan Tian quickly blurted out, “No.”
Then she turned around without hesitation, ran into her apartment, and slammed the door shut behind her.
Ruan Tian set down the food and thought of the tens of thousands she had just spent on renting this place. Keeping her focus on the money, she was able to endure the strong desire to move away again immediately.
This wasn’t a big problem!
She would be fine!
However, Ruan Tian didn’t sleep well that night, and her dreams were haunted by nightmares.
In fact, of the psychological shadows she had accumulated in high school, the one left by Qin Yu was the deepest.
Back then, she had always suspected that Qin Yu liked to make things difficult for her all the time because of his own poor health.
She assumed his psychological distortion stemmed from his sickly body.
Of course, she had tried many times to run away or to fight back but, in the end, she was never able to completely shake Qin Yu away.
She had also cursed him viciously many times. She had told him that she hoped that he would fall ill one day and then never get better, his condition worsening and worsening until he could never escape from the hospital.
Unfortunately, after they had all graduated from high school, the sickly young master’s body seemed to have gradually recovered.
