The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Anning ran to Grandma Gu’s house, found the locked gate, and used a piece of wire to unlock it.

By the time Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu caught up, they saw that the gate was already open.

Mr. Gu was still confused: "Didn’t we lock the door when we left?"

Mrs. Gu couldn’t remember either: "Who would remember something like that? Let’s just quickly grab our stuff and go. I can’t stand it here any longer. If we stay, I’m afraid your mother is going to sell our daughter to Ankang as a bride."

Mr. Gu did not say much; together with Mrs. Gu, they took Anning inside to grab their things and left.

When Uncle Gu and the others finished their meal and returned, Anning’s family was long gone.

Grandma Gu was so angry that she stomped her feet, cursing that Mr. Gu was heartless and that there was nothing good about Anning and her mother, claiming they had spoiled her good son.

Gu Ankang also made a fuss, asking Grandma Gu when Anning would get married, so he could have some bride price money to play with.

As for how Grandma Gu pacified him, that was unknown.

Skipping over these details, Anning’s family had left their old home early and upon returning to their own house, Mrs. Gu cooked another full meal and the three of them ate their fill and rested separately.

Anning went to her room to rest for a while and, seeing that it was still early, not feeling like doing her homework, she decided to go out for a walk.

She told Mrs. Gu that she wanted to take a walk, and Mrs. Gu smiled approvingly, even giving Anning some money to buy some snacks and toys.
