Chapter 484: She Wants to Sever Ties
Shen Pandi watched Wang Dani quietly.
Once—though saying "once" is actually only a few months ago—at that time she often complained about heaven and others; why did Heaven give her such a pair of parents out of so many people in this world?
But after only a short few months, having seen a larger world and experienced more things, she felt that life is indeed a form of cultivation.
Perhaps it is precisely because of her family of origin that she now feels there are still many good people in the world.
Everyone is better to her than her parents.
Having at least brushed against the world of fame and fortune, Shen Pandi knew that the best thing for her to do right now was to cooperate with Wang Dani in putting on a show.
To perform a scene of deep mother-child affection, weeping in each other's arms, and then pretend to resolve the conflict; that would defuse this crisis.
But the price would be that her escape over these past few months would have been in vain, and in the future, these two would constantly threaten her and exploit her, just like the past dozen years or so.
Shen Pandi thought about a great many things internally, but in reality, only a few minutes had passed, and she had already weighed it all.
Facing the camera, she smiled slightly, "There are three sisters in our family. When I was seven, my parents spent money to buy a younger brother, and ever since then, I have never eaten a single egg again."
"When I was eight, I accidentally fell while holding my younger brother, and you and Dad whipped me with thorny pear branches for half an hour; I still have scars on my back to this day."
"When I was nine, my younger brother smashed a bloody hole in my head with a brick, and I bled a lot. You held my younger brother and walked away without even looking back. It was Hua Guafu from the village who applied wood ash to it for me."
"There are many, many more things like this. Mom, since I was little, you and Dad both said I was a burden. Now that I have left that home, shouldn't you be happy?"
Hearing these words, Wang Dani was somewhat surprised; she had not expected her daughter to bring up old accounts in public.
Yes, she did dote on her son more, but boys are just more likable, aren't they?
Besides, which child doesn't have a few bumps and bruises growing up? Why was she being so aggrieved and pretentious? She even started crying as she spoke.
The crowd was in an uproar.
"Isn't this mother favoring boys over girls? Why come looking for her daughter after treating her so poorly?"
"Of course it's because she sees her daughter is famous now and wants money!"
"She even had the nerve to act all pitiful just a moment ago; it's truly disgusting!"
Yangyang pulled the thin, weak girl beside her closer to show comfort.
She had always thought Pandi was very strong; she hadn't expected that she had grown up in such an environment since she was little.
How is one supposed to accept that parents treat a bought son better than their own daughter?
Wang Dani was a bit panicked; she felt that the way everyone was looking at her was no longer so kind.
It was even aggressive.
"Are you sick in the head? You don't cherish your own daughter but cherish a son born to someone else? Has that son provided for your old age now?"
"That's a rhetorical question; if he could provide for her old age, would she have come all this way to find her daughter?"
"She's probably planning to take the money she gets from her daughter back to spend on that son of hers."
Among these people, there was one weak voice leaning toward Wang Dani, "But, no matter what, your mother did give birth to you; one should still know how to be grateful."
Wang Dani felt that made a lot of sense.
But just as she thought that, someone immediately scolded that person, "What? Being a parent makes you right? Did the child beg to be born?"
"Parents like this should be buried; they are a menace even while alive!"
Seeing that the timing was about right, Shen Pandi wiped away her tears, "Why did I run away from home? I heard you even wanted my eldest sister to marry my younger brother; they grew up as sister and brother!"
"If I hadn't left, were you planning to make me marry my younger brother too?"
"By the way, have you ever thought about looking for my eldest sister who also ran away from home?"
The onlookers were in an uproar once again.
Is this, is this really Huaguo language being spoken?
How is it that they understand every single word, but don't quite understand the meaning when they are put together?
Making a sister marry her brother?
Is this something normal parents could do? Who wouldn't want to run away from home if they were in that position?
"Of course you look for whoever has money; parents like this are sick in the head, whoever gets stuck with them is unlucky!" the girl who bought the chicken leg for Wang Dani said angrily. She snatched back the chicken leg Wang Dani had half-eaten and threw it to a dog on the side of the road.

Wang Dani:...
"In short, I will not acknowledge you," Shen Pandi felt the timing for severing ties was good now.
She returned to the basement and fished out three hundred yuan from under her pillow.
"Here is this money for you. I probably haven't spent this much of your money from the time I was little until now. I will publish a notice in the newspaper to sever ties; from now on, we will have no more relationship."
Having finished speaking her inner thoughts from this period, Shen Pandi felt a sense of relief in her heart.
Perhaps, it should have been like this long ago.
Wang Dani was completely dumbfounded; she looked at the three hundred yuan in her hand.
Three hundred yuan was a lot; she rarely had this much money in her hands.
Even if she did, it was either spent on Xiao Chi or taken by Shen Dazhuang to gamble; it was rarely spent on Shen Pandi and her sisters.
"No, you can't sever ties; your dad won't agree," Wang Dani said. Besides, whose family doesn't raise a daughter for the sake of old age? The two of them had finally managed to raise a few children, and now the one with the most prospects actually wanted to sever ties with them?
How could that be allowed?
"Whether you agree or not, it is useless."
Shen Pandi knew she could not continue to live here, otherwise Wang Dani might continue to stay here and act pitiful.
"I'm leaving now; let's not meet again in the future."
After saying this, Shen Pandi rushed out of the crowd regardless of anything else and ran far away.
She guessed that something must have happened to Shen Dazhuang, perhaps his leg was broken, otherwise he definitely would have come with Wang Dani.
Severed well.
Wang Dani stood there blankly, accepting the mockery of the people for a long while.
She did not know what she could do now; if only Shen Dazhuang were by her side.
Wang Dani decided to take a vehicle back; as a woman, she had no ideas of her own and could not survive living in a strange city.
……
Hearing that her daughter wanted to sever ties with them, Shen Dazhuang was so angry he practically wanted to rush over and slap her twice.
"If it weren't for me, would she be where she is today? She even dares to sever ties, she thinks she's something!"
Wang Dani said timidly, "But, but Pan Di said she wants to publish a statement in the newspaper to sever ties with us."
"A lousy newspaper is enough to stop being filial in the future? What an ungrateful wretch! She thinks she can sever ties by giving three hundred? Dream on! She has to give at least five thousand!"
The astronomical figure of five thousand gave Wang Dani a start, "Five thousand? Could she have that much?"
"Isn't she famous now? She can definitely earn five thousand yuan."
Shen Dazhuang was now anxious to get better and go to Jing Shi; he had Wang Dani call the doctor in, "Doctor, my daughter is on television in Jing, I want to go see her, when will this leg of mine be healed?"
