They were the ones who hit her first. Ruan Mengmeng had merely put up a bit of resistance, but now Ruan Jiaojiao was making her out to be the worst of villains.
Ruan Mengmeng really did not understand. How could there be anyone so good at manipulating the truth?
She turned her head slightly, ignoring Ruan Jiaojiao’s accusations and looking only at Ruan Zhaotian.
Half of her beautiful face was completely swollen, and the fresh blood flowing from the corner of her forehead added a layer of frost over her initially sweet and pure looks.
Ruan Mengmeng stared directly at Ruan Zhaotian. “Dad, tell me… The truth is, you’re already certain that I did it, aren’t you?”
Her father was not always like this.
Yes, he was a flirt, and he betrayed her mother as a partner. That was why her mother killed herself by jumping into the ocean eleven years ago.
Even so, he had truly been good to Ruan Mengmeng and her sister.
He used to listen to her explanations, hearing her words and understanding her thoughts.
When others teased her in the past, saying she was not as capable as her older sister and that she was a parasite living off the Ruan Family, her father had been the one who hugged and consoled her.
‘I’ll let Shishi handle Ruan Industries in the future, and then I’ll retire and be a parasite with you, Mengmeng. One day, I’ll be a parasite too, just like our Mengmeng. What’s wrong with being a parasite? That just means someone loves us enough to feed us. Parasites are the best, parasites for the win!’
His words from back then still resonated in her ears.
Now, however…
“Mengmeng, don’t think too much of it… I know you’re not that bad, I’m sure you just got a little carried away.”
As soon as Ruan Zhaotian said that, Ruan Mengmeng felt as though her brain exploded.
It was as though she could see all her memories of her reliable father shattering into pieces in her mind.
“No, you’re wrong…” Suddenly, she laughed.
