After Cookie got her wound washed, she came out of the treatment room. She lowered her head so that people could not see her face. But Ning Tiantian knew that she looked bad.

Ning Tiantian wanted to say something to comfort her, but she couldn’t come up with a proper word when she opened her mouth. She was worried that Cookie would get hurt again if she said anything inappropriate.

Finally, Cookie took the initiative to talk to Ning Tiantian. She sat on a bench in the hospital. She shrank into herself. Her lonely shadow fell on the ground. There was an unspeakable sadness about her.

“I’m really not a bastard. My mother died the day she gave birth to me. My father said that my life was earned by sacrificing my mother. He also said that my mother will always be watching me in heaven…”

She seemed to be talking about a story that she read in a storybook, but tears kept running down from her cheeks. Her eyes looked heartbreakingly sad.

“Cookie, your mother is a great woman. Really, don’t be sad anymore.” Ning Tiantian held Cookie’s cold body and held her head against Cookie’s head.

Li Yanmo and Su Yi stand on both sides of them, looking at them gently.

After a long time, Cookie stopped sobbing. She raised her face and looked at Ning Tiantian with red eyes. “Tiantian, I’m going home. Tomorrow…”

When she said this, her voice choked. Her baby teeth bit her lower lip. She asked quickly and uneasily, “Will we still be good friends tomorrow?”

“Of course!” Ning Tiantian nodded, without any hesitation, “We are always good friends! Nothing to do with our families!”

“That’s good.” Cookie was relieved, and her body was not as tense as before.

In the past, when other children heard that she didn’t have a mother, they would immediately alienate her, and even laugh at her behind her back, or in her face, like Xu Jiajia.

Su Yi scratched his head and apologized to Cookie. “I’m responsible for everything today. Can I invite you guys to dinner?”

“Thanks, but…” Cookie shook her head. No one had the ability to foretell everything. How could Su Yi know that Xu Jiajia lived in the same neighborhood as Cookie and knew about her situation?

Ning Tiantian won’t let go of such a good opportunity to have a free meal. “He is offering a free meal. How can I miss it? Let’s go! Let’s go!”

She really couldn’t stand Inky’s cooking anymore. It was terrible!

Although Inky had good grades at school and he was also good-looking, the food he made was really hard to swallow for Ning Tiantian, especially the large number of vegetables that he liked to add in Ning Tiantian’s meal. And every time, Inky asked Ning Tiantian to finish all of it.

Li Yanmo saw her expression and knew what she was thinking. He gave a snort of contempt and whispered in her ear, “Tomorrow, stir-fried vegetables–only vegetables. There won’t be any meat.”

Ning Tiantian was heartbroken. Did she really look that obvious?

After a big meal, Su Yi offered to take Cookie home. They happened to live a block away from each other. Ning Tiantian was not sure about it. She wanted to go with them, but Su Yi and Cookie already had gotten into a taxi.

“He’ll take care of Cookie.” Li Yanmo looked at her. It was funny how she tried to act like an adult.

Ning Tiantian put her hands on her waist and pouted. “You said before that he would not let anyone hurt her. But we both saw how Cookie was bullied by that auntie.”

Li Yanmo was speechless.

“It was just an accident…” He gave a light cough.

When she got home, Ning Tiantian immediately called Cookie. Knowing that she had arrived home safely, she was relieved.

Li Yanmo was speechless. Su Yi took Cookie home, not took her.

Ning Tiantian thought what happened today would just end like this, but the next day at school, she found something strange with Cookie.
