Chapter 18
After saying that, he started to choke uncontrollably, and tears fell down drop by drop.

Why is this world so scary? She is so hungry and sleepy.

Liu Yun hugged her daughter Huang Xiaoya tightly and hummed children's songs softly to soothe her daughter's mood.

"Little Ya, don't be afraid. Our little Ya is the bravest baby. When the rain stops, we can go home."

Huang Xiaoya poked her head out of the soft embrace and asked softly: "Mom, will dad come home with us? Why doesn't he want us anymore?"

The people around him spat in disdain, their eyes full of disgust.

Huang Xiaoya is still a 3-year-old child. She only has eyes for her mother. She doesn't know what the abnormal expressions of others mean when she mentions her father.

Liu Yun gently covered her daughter's eyes with her hands, and then she dared to show the bitterness on her face, "Dad, he has his own things to do, let's not disturb him, okay?"

"Ha..." The 50-year-old aunt was amused by Liu Yun's love brain. She pulled over the young girl who used to work together in this building, put her mouth to the girl's ear after not brushing her teeth for a few days, and used all the words that everyone could do. The voice heard said:
"Xiao Tu, when you look for a man in the future, you have to keep your eyes open and see his character clearly before making a decision. You can't want the kind of man who abandons his wife and children and joins the society for a little bit of food."

The girl was stung by the bad breath that hit her face. She took a step back and was pulled over again by the brute force of the aunt.

"Don't try too hard to save face. Dad is obviously a scumbag, but he still lies in front of his children. It's really hopeless."

Tu Zhouzhou: "..."

There is no need to involve her. A foreigner who came to City B from another province to make a living has no plans to start a family in this city.

Moreover, she watched helplessly as the water spread from the first floor to the fifth floor, and it might soon reach the fourteenth floor, or maybe never again.

Tu Zhouzhou expressed her desire to be quiet to her aunt. She walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window alone, her long and thin hair covering her red ears, and looked lonely at the rain as big as a stone.

The emotion of missing her family reached its peak at this moment. She missed her parents.

Boom!A loud thunder struck, making Tu Zhouzhou's body tremble violently.

Others also subconsciously hugged each other for warmth. The thunder paused and then separated again.

After the aunt recovered, she curled her lips in dissatisfaction and continued to find the next person to talk about Liu Yun and the building. She also asked the person next to her about her family situation in a circumstantial way, just for fun.

Not many people like Auntie are "optimistic" and gossip about people. Most people, like Liu Yun and Tu Zhouzhou, are worried about the future.

Shen Ruoran used the shadow position to hide behind the two-meter-high ten-million-level sculptured art, and got a rough idea of ​​the building's situation through the chirping aunt.

Some of the people in the building now are the original employees of the building, and some are owners of surrounding communities or shops. When they saw something was wrong, they took their families and took refuge here.

But the current people in charge of Wantang Building are a group of gangsters who had nothing to do before the end of the world and only knew how to collect protection fees.

When heavy rain flooded the first floor, gangsters broke in, suppressed the people in the building with knives, seized supplies, and gathered many people, making the area their king.

On the 7th floor, the 16th floor and each floor above, the gangsters have arranged for a guard, one in the stairwell and one at the elevator entrance.

No one lives on the 6th floor, which has not yet been flooded. The 7th to 15th floors are occupied by some old, weak, women and children who have no use value.

Further up, there are rich people with assets of over one million, handsome boys and beauties with good looks, practicing practitioners who are good at fighting, and followers who join the gangster team to work for them.

As the same landlord, the happiness of the tenants (employees) here is very low, it can be said to be almost non-existent.Shen Ruoran praised herself narcissistically in her heart. She was really a good building owner who cared about the residents.

The people on the 13th floor were lifeless. They all lowered their heads and sighed. No one noticed Shen Ruoran.

On the 14th floor, there was an aunt who couldn't take any time off. She chatted a few words to the left and a few words to the right. Although the content of the conversation was not what everyone wanted to hear, no one was willing to spare the energy to deal with her.

Because of this person's presence, Shen Ruoran was worried that collecting clothes in the past would expose herself, so she temporarily stopped taking action.

"I don't know if anyone upstairs will change their mind and come downstairs in the past few days to share the difficulties with us. A few days ago, the guy couldn't stand the gap and jumped to his death. When will another one come down and add some popularity to our floor?"

Hearing the aunt's words to herself, Shen Ruoran's eyes were bright and her brows were raised. It seemed that the opportunity she had been waiting for had come.

On this floor, it will be easier to find out about the "all-round farmer" Lai Yecheng than on the 13th floor. She also needs to take this opportunity to create conditions for herself to collect clothes.

Shen Ruoran waited for a while, but the aunt didn't say any more useful content. She untied the braid with one hand, deliberately messed up her hair, grabbed the dirty ashes on the ground, and patted her clothes.

He walked out timidly, crying a little.

She looks so pitiful.

"Hello...can I find a place to rest?"

Sure enough, as Shen Ruoran thought, the first person to look up at her was the chatty aunt. Before the others responded, the aunt stood up and walked to Shen Ruoran's side, walking around her a few times inquiringly.

"Which floor did you come down from?" The older man in the crowd asked before the aunt.

Shen Ruoran lowered his head and randomly guessed a floor that was neither high nor low, "It should be the 17th floor..."

If the 17th floor is inappropriate, she will say that she remembered it wrong and it should be the 18th floor, giving herself enough room to excuse herself.

The aunt held her chin with one hand and rolled her eyes suspiciously.

The 17th floor, if she remembered correctly, was a place where the upper class could pick out fallen girls.

His mouth is faster than his brain, and he blurts out without emotional intelligence: "So are you the lady for their fun?"

Shen Ruoran was shocked. It seemed that her intuition was not good. How could she make up a random floor and make up her identity like this?

Just when he was about to forcefully explain that he remembered the wrong floor, the old man became angry and scolded the aunt on behalf of Shen Ruoran:

"Cai Juanhua, can you have some quality and stop slandering other girls casually? Servants live on the 17th floor, and the 18th floor is that kind of place."

This is the first time that the old man has stopped Cai Juanhua's nonsense. The older generation has a deep-rooted concept that slandering people's chastity is tantamount to murdering people's lives, and they are completely evil people.

Cai Juanhua turned her head indifferently and glared at the old man, "So what if I remember wrongly? A servant is better than a prostitute? Working for those gangsters is not a good thing. In the old society, they were like traitors. "

Shen Ruoran's head was buzzing after being criticized. If there weren't too many people in the building, she would have collected all the clothes on the 13th to 16th floors in a low-key manner. She didn't want to fight with a group of gangsters and expose herself too much, otherwise she would really have a good relationship with Cai Juanhua. A scolding.
