Chapter 388 -363: Is the Birth Mother Indifferent Like a Chrysanthemum? The Young Mistress Sabotages Effortlessly 3_2
“You’re still young now, just focus on your studies, and aim to get into a good school later, understood? For now, don’t clash with your family, less talking, more doing.” The female police officer sat beside her, pushing the cup of water towards her. Seeing Su Zhiruan take a sip, the officer then smiled warmly at her.
Su Zhiruan returned the smile, “Thank you, Sister. I understand, and I will definitely do as you advised.”
After she uttered those words, the policewoman felt even more sympathy for her. A tear formed in her eyes, which she quickly wiped away, while repeatedly praising her as a good child.
The policewoman had a three-year-old daughter at home to whom she gave all her love. But now, seeing Su Zhiruan being tormented by her family and not favored by her own mother, her heart ached—perhaps it was the power of maternal love at work.
“I have some money here; take it for now. Otherwise, how will you get home?” Several policemen walked over; they too were aware of Su Zhiruan’s current situation, and some were already reaching for their wallets to take out some money to give to Su Zhiruan.
The man in the lead took out 500 yuan from his wallet and tried to give it to Su Zhiruan, but she waved her hand and did not accept it. Instead, she took just a 20 yuan note from the money offered.
The somewhat yellowed and wrinkled banknote unfolded in her hand. She took care to hold it gently, straighten the corners, and then clenched it in her hand again, “Thank you so much! I’ll just take this one. I’m very grateful!”
The policeman wanted to say more, intending to give all the money to Su Zhiruan. But seeing her firm refusal, he couldn’t help but feel increased fondness for the young girl, and even the female officer nodded in approval. She had wanted to transfer more money to Su Zhiruan but stopped upon seeing her clear refusal, saying, “If you ever find yourself in danger next time, remember to call the police, and we will do our utmost to help.”
“Okay, okay.” Su Zhiruan nodded and waved to them in thanks.

Her injuries were not severe; after all, the overweight man couldn’t dare to speed on the streets. She was just knocked a few meters away, with abrasions on her arms, knees, and other parts, still bleeding.
The overweight man was detained by the police and fined as well.
It could be considered getting the retribution he deserved.
When Su Zhiruan walked out, she didn’t rush to hail a taxi home. She looked at the 20 yuan in her palm, standing on the bustling street, feeling a long-lost sensation for the first time.
She had not been in the modern world for a long time. In the thousands of years before, she had always stayed in the Six Realms. Suddenly back in the familiar modernity, she even felt somewhat alien.
Skyscrapers soared, towering one upon another.
Every car merging into the traffic eventually found its destination; this was a more technologically and modernly advanced metropolis.
Looking at the 20 yuan note in her hand, she made a decision.
Su Zhiruan stopped a kind-looking passerby and asked softly, “Hello, may I borrow your phone? I got separated from my dad… I can’t find him now… and I’m injured…”
The person she stopped was a clear-eyed college student who, upon seeing her young age and the injuries all over her body, immediately felt compassion and handed over his phone, “Please use it.”
After taking the phone, Su Zhiruan dialed the number of her father from her memory.
The phone rang several times before it was finally picked up.
Su Zhiruan hesitated before speaking.
“…Dad, is that you… I miss you…”
In her first words on the call, she spoke like that, her voice growing lighter and breaking into sobs.
On the other end, Su Qin had just finished a meeting and was dealing with documents. Seeing the unfamiliar number, he was about to hang up but instinctively pressed to answer instead, curious to see who it was. When he heard Su Zhiruan’s voice, he was stunned for a moment and then heard the girl’s tearful voice.
In an instant, he felt as if the softest part of his heart had been touched. His daughter had not been this close to him for a long time. The last time she was close, he had tried to tuck in the corner of her blanket but was met with her wary gaze. Her successive estrangements in these days had felt like a bucket of cold water poured over him, instantly making him disheartened, and now, over the phone, his daughter told him she missed him, God knows how much his heart ached at that moment, as if it had been cleaved open with a mighty ax.
