Chapter 349 Ning Dongqing and her stepfather
After seeing the students' prosperity, Ning's mother's heart was so distant. ◎, the originally very harmonious family has caused many troubles and quarrels since then.
Under Ning's mother's constant persuasion and instigation, Ning's father finally quit his stable job and started to do business. It was during this period that Ning's father met Ning Dongqing's stepfather.
The two of them were just business partners at first, but later they became close partners, and their relationship was getting closer and closer. Because it was the early stage of their business, Ning's father was reluctant to spend money in those big hotels, so he often invited this foreigner to have dinner at home.
This can save a lot of money for entrepreneurship. But after a while, the foreigner and Ning's mother and Xiao Ning Dongqing were familiar with each other. Every time he came to visit Ning's house, he would bring a lot of gifts and toys to Ning's mother and Xiao Ning Dongqing.
Ning's mother had never seen so many big-name perfumes and cosmetics abroad, and she was knocked unconscious all of a sudden. The foreigner later started to give out more expensive things, such as brand-name bags and high-end clothes. Ning's father and mother refused at the beginning, after all, these things are of great value and they deserve it.
But the foreigner insisted on giving it to him, and they had to give it to him, so they had to accept the other person's "good intention". At that time, Ning's father only thought it was a British tradition, and he was busy with his business during his entrepreneurship, so he didn't have the heart to think about it deeply.
Ning Dongqing could vaguely remember that foreigners often came to their homes for a while. And many times, even if their father was not at home, he would come. And every time he came, he would give himself a hundred yuan to go to the nearby Holi Cake Shop for an afternoon. Ning Dongqing became the best-selling elder sister in the community during that time, which was all thanks to her stepfather’s 100 yuan.
In addition, Ning Dongqing was constantly receiving various toys, and she liked this foreign uncle very much at that time. At that time, Ning Dongqing had already started to remember. Later, when she remembered this incident, they probably had already cuckolded their father at that time.
However, Ning Dongqing was still young at that time and didn't understand what was going on, so she couldn't remind her father. As life passed day by day, Ning's father's originally smooth entrepreneurial plan began to suffer setbacks again and again.
In fact, everyone has their own good things. Business is very particular about talent and connections. Ning's father is not stupid, and with the help of his friends and foreigners, he did make some money at the beginning. This made him a little complacent, and it was not difficult to do business.
He was still thinking at the time. If his wife hadn't scolded him to wake him up, the family might have lived a life of food and clothing. He felt grateful to Ning's mother, but he didn't know that his head would have been green.
After tasting the sweetness of the business, Ning's father took out all the savings in the family and increased his investment. He was ready to make a fortune. Who knew that those friends suddenly refused to give him a order again before. Even if he went to ask for a meeting, they would find reasons to turn them out.
Even this very close partner also withdraws his investment on the grounds that the market is unstable and he wants to return to the UK to develop.
In this way, Ning's father failed in his business and lost a lot of money. Ning Dongqing thought of these things now. It would be strange if her stepfather had not touched any trouble at that time.
Originally, Ning's father made some money and felt guilty caused by cheating, Ning's mother had not quarreled with him for a long time. This family became much more harmonious because of this.
Unfortunately, Ning's father failed to start his business this time and directly drove the family into the abyss.
As mentioned earlier, in order to create more benefits, Ning's father invested all the savings he had saved over the years. They originally wanted to keep the money to buy a house, but they had to save the dowry for Ning Dongqing in the future, but they lost all of it.
Ning's mother originally thought that she would live a rich wife life from now on. When the class reunion next time she was reunited, she would be able to show off and regain the superiority she had in college back then.
Unfortunately, things went against her wishes. Her current situation was even worse than when she was at her class reunion last time. Fortunately, they paid their rent for one year, otherwise they might not even have a place to live.
After this blow, Ning's father lost motivation to start a business and began to look for a job honestly and steadily. After searching, he found jobs with a lot of work but their salary was worse than before.
In order to support the family, Ning's father had no choice but to do it first.
Although Ning's father failed to start his business, fortunately he did not owe any debts, so he was not completely knocked down. This can only be said that Ning Dongqing's stepfather still has a little human nature. Otherwise, Ning's father would probably be heavily in debt, and it would be impossible to jump off a building.
However, a bigger blow came soon.
Ning's mother finally couldn't hold on anymore, she wanted to get a divorce. She wanted nothing at home, just Ning Dongqing.
When she forced Ning's father to start a business, Ning's mother also filed for divorce. However, she was always using strategies, just talking about it. Ning's father thought it was the same this time. Ning's mother forced her to continue working hard, so she forced her to divorce.
He didn't take this seriously at first, but when the divorce agreement was placed in front of him, he was completely stunned.
In the end, Ning's mother took Ning Dongqing away.
They left Linfen, Shanxi and came to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Even now, Ning Dongqing didn't know why her mother did this. Her mother never told her, and she didn't even know until she died.
She probably stopped loving her, or she might have lost hope in life, or she might have made a better future for Ning Dongqing.
Maybe she really loves her stepfather, or she may be to live a more nourishing life, or she may be just to be more face-saving at the class reunion every year.
Ning Dongqing didn't understand these things when she was young, so she hated leaving her father very much. When she grew up and understood these things, she no longer hated her father, but began to resent her mother.
However, her mother passed away without a few years of resentment.
Her mother committed suicide because she suffered from very severe depression.
Depression was just a simple word for Ning Dongqing in the past. But now
People suffering from depression have a low mood and their situation. Emotional depression can range from depression to grief, inferiority and depression, and even pessimism and world-weariness. In severe cases, suicide attempts or behaviors can occur.
It was not until after her mother passed away that Ning Dongqing learned that she suffered from depression.
Ning's mother not only kept the matter of taking paroxetine from her stepfather, but also Ning Dongqing kept it from her. Ning Dongqing later asked her mother's personal doctor what was going on with her mother's depression.
Unfortunately, the doctor cannot fully answer her question. The cause of depression is still unsure. But what is certain is that many factors in biological, psychological and social environment are involved in the onset of depression.
Ning Dongqing blamed herself for her mother's death because she thought she was one of the factors.
When I learned that I was not abandoned by my father, but my mother brought me and this foreigner to the UK for the sake of her vanity. Ning Dongqing's whole body changed.
For money, immigration, and vanity, her mother actually took herself away from her father, and she never asked her any opinions. Ning Dongqing's transformation from Chinese to British was just a color change in her passport. However, her life changed, and she was completely uncontrollable.
She was originally lively and optimistic, but she began to become cold and silly.
In her eyes, her mother changed, her stepfather changed, the world changed, and everything was overturned. She began to rebel. Even if she knew that what she did was wrong or even outrageously wrong, she had to fight against her parents.
It was also from that time that, the stepfather who had liked her very much began to gradually alienate her. Her mother felt guilty, so she kept accommodating her and endured her various ridicule.
Thinking of these now, maybe my mother’s death has something to do with me!
Ning Dongqing's mother left like this. She died suddenly and did not leave any last words. When the incident happened, Ning Dongqing was only twelve years old. No one taught her how to face such a thing, and no one could help her.
If someone can do it, it is Ning's father.
Ning Dongqing once hoped to contact her father. She hoped to return to China, Linfen, Shanxi, and her hometown.
Unfortunately, the letters sent out were like snowflakes, disappearing without a trace.
There was no reply.
She would make dozens of calls to her father every day, but unfortunately she didn't get through once.
In the end, the stepfather told her a cold and cruel reality, and wiped out all her hopes.
"Your biological father is dead, don't waste your energy."
Ning Dongqing was the last one to know about her mother’s suicide due to depression. She was the last one to know about her father’s death. Even she didn’t even know about how her father died or what she died.
She had asked her stepfather countless times, but unfortunately she didn't answer her question at all.
Once upon a time, his stepfather was still very good to Ning Dongqing. Of course, there were many reasons here. First of all, with Ning's mother's relationship here, he could not regard Ning Dongqing as an outsider. Secondly, he probably felt ashamed of Ning's father, so he wanted to help him take good care of his daughter.
Moreover, Ning Dongqing has been very cute, well-behaved and sensible since she was a child, so she is naturally very pleasing.
However, after Ning's mother died, all this changed.
As she grew up one year later, Ning Dongqing already knew the miserable things her stepfather had done with her mother back then. Moreover, she also guessed the reason for her father's failure in entrepreneurship.
Ning Dongqing once transferred her hatred for her father to her mother, but now she has finally transferred it to her stepfather.
Without him, my parents would not have divorced! My mother would not have brought her to the UK! My father would not have died! My mother would not have died!
She hated her father and mother, but now she hated her stepfather even more!
Ironically, her only legal guardian now is her stepfather. What makes people feel even more disastrous is that she must continue to spend time with this stepfather!
In fact, her stepfather wanted Ning Dongqing to become an adult as soon as possible, and the evil relationship between them could end there.
Unfortunately, Ning Dongqing is only fifteen years old.
Regardless of whether he wants or not, he must assume the responsibility of Ning Dongqing's legal guardian.
If Ning Dongqing has any accidents due to his reasons, he will be in jail and it will be a serious crime.
So, even if he doesn't want to pay attention to Ning Dongqing, he still has to send her to school and discipline her strictly like a real father, so as not to avoid Ning Dongqing's fault, and he will be charged with poor supervision.
In this way, two people who hate each other had to continue living together. Their lives were very painful, and both of them felt this way.
Until June 10th.
On this day, human beings have changed, the world has changed, and everything has changed.
***************
Ning Dongqing still thinks it’s ridiculous when she thinks that classmate who can’t call her name.
On June 10th, that day was his birthday. Unfortunately, he immediately became a zombie just after his birthday. Can this be said to be a sin?
Ning Dongqing did not see him turning into a zombie with her own eyes, but judging from the current situation, it was almost impossible for the man to survive.
Time goes back to the evening of June 10th, and there is a bar street.
"Fatty Li! 309, please send it here!"
"I got it, manager."
Fatty Li picked up the tray and carefully climbed towards the third floor.
For Fatty Li and the KTV manager, this is an ordinary Wednesday night. Summer is coming soon, so even if it is not a weekend, there will be a lot more guests at night than usual.
Other stores on the bar street are like their little KTV. Apart from having more customers than Monday and Tuesday, there is nothing strange about it.
At the end of the bar street, in a Chinese cafeteria. The owner looked at the filled hall and the people who were still queuing in the front hall and couldn't help but smiled satisfied.
Business is booming, which is what everyone who is a boss wants to see.
Thanks to the world-famous UA University in Norwich, the number of Chinese people in this city can be said to be quite large. Of course, it is not enough to just rely on Chinese people to come and consume. Their dishes in this restaurant are sweeter, and it is also a buffet, so foreigners also like to come here to have dinner together.
And when someone celebrates birthdays, they not only play birthday greetings, but also give a cake. The cake was bought from a pastry shop not far away. The cake is not expensive, and the boss will not feel distressed anyway, since the wool comes from the sheep.
This buffet can attract both Chinese and foreigners. In addition, the boss is also good at being a good person, so it would be strange if the business is not good.
And in addition, this buffet restaurant also delivers takeout, which is also a large income of their store.
In short, as long as you keep it in this situation, it won’t take long to buy a third house in Norwich.
He had already figured out the use of the third house. Just like the second house, he had to rent it out.
And we must team up for those Chinese students. Anyway, they are stupid and have a lot of money, and they spend all their parents' money. They don't feel sorry for their money at all.
In short, this foreign money is easy to make!
When I buy the third house, will the fourth house be far away? Then I have more funds, and I might be able to open a restaurant or even a bar (to be continued.)
Chapter completed!
