Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 570: Enjoying a Peaceful Old Age

At this moment, in a small grocery store, a richly dressed young girl was standing in front of a couple, looking at them unkindly.

"Are you taking advantage of the situation? Besides compensating Ji Zhiye’s family, I’ve already given you two million extra, and you’re still not satisfied? Truly insatiable!"

The couple was not young anymore, and a child of about seven or eight was sitting at a desk nearby, doing homework.

This grocery store was somewhat remote, so although the business wasn’t bad, it was certainly far from thriving.

In recent years, if it weren’t for their elder son working as a driver for the Li Family, earning tens of thousands in year-end bonuses and red envelopes each year, they might not have made it through many major events.

Now the eldest Miss Li, Li Jiaojiao, stood before them, looking at them with extreme disdain.

In the past, this couple would have flattered this young mistress, nodding and bowing, but times have changed, and many things have shifted mysteriously.

And this change was triggered by that girl they met at the hospital.

If it weren’t for those few words she said, they might still be blinded by the two million, unaware of the gravity of the situation.

"Miss Li, that’s not how it is. The money you gave was compensation for the Ji Family, hoping they wouldn’t pursue the matter further and bring it to court," the perpetrator’s father spoke first, looking at Li Jiaojiao. "But you didn’t mention how the Lin Family would be held accountable!"

Initially, they didn’t expect that the Lin Family’s eldest daughter, Lin Huixia, would be disfigured in the accident, nor did they expect the accident to be so horrific.

This was somewhat different from what was initially agreed upon, the result being the only constant.

Originally, thinking that both the Lin Family and the Li Family were prominent families, they assumed Li Jiaojiao would naturally handle the matter.

But now it seems that things aren’t that simple after all.

"The Lin Family?" Li Jiaojiao furrowed her brows. "What does the Lin Family’s daughter have to do with you? If anyone should be held accountable, it should be Ji Zhiye. If Ji Zhiye hadn’t insisted on taking Lin Huixia for a ride, this accident wouldn’t have happened."

These people are so troublesome, are the Lin Family idiots? They actually let them leave the hospital just like that?

Do they really think Lin Huixia’s life is so worthless in their eyes? They didn’t even bother to question the perpetrator’s parents?

The perpetrator’s mother looked at Li Jiaojiao and said: "Miss Li, you are educated and learned. The perpetrator is our son, and Ji Zhiye is dead. How could the Lin Family find anything on the Ji Family? Moreover, Ji Zhiye was Miss Lin’s fiancé. Didn’t you know that already? If the Lin Family insists on suing us, we have no choice. When the time comes, what can be said and what will happen, we can’t guarantee! After all, the Lin Family’s power and influence are vast, far beyond what our small household can contend with."

At this point, the perpetrator’s mother’s tone grew increasingly humble.

Giving off a ’I don’t want this, I’m unwilling’ sentiment, invoking anger without evoking outburst.

Li Jiaojiao took a deep breath and looked at the man and woman in front of her: "Tell me! How much more do you want? I’ll consider myself unlucky!"

The perpetrator’s father looked at Li Jiaojiao, a touch of contempt flashed in his eyes.

So this is what a wealthy young lady is like? Speaking such shameless words.

They’ve already lost their son’s life to secure the two million they have now, and now there’s the matter of the Lin Family’s daughter’s disfigurement.

They particularly inquired with contacts at the hospital; Lin Huixia’s disfigurement was not extensive, but the wounds were deep.

If she wants no scars at all, they’d have to spend a lot of money on several reconstructive surgeries with no hope otherwise.

What’s more, Lin Huixia also broke three ribs. The surgical supplements, and various compensations.

Does anyone really think this can be resolved without tens of thousands? No chance.

Furthermore, considering the Lin Family’s power, how could they be short of money?

Frankly, the next victim of this vendetta might just be one of the couple who lost their son.

With these thoughts, the perpetrator’s father looked at Li Jiaojiao with unspeakable aversion: "Just give us a million more, and we won’t trouble Miss Li with the rest, will that do?"

Upon hearing this, Li Jiaojiao’s eyebrows furrowed sharply: "Impossible! I’ll only give you five hundred thousand at most; don’t even think about a cent more!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

As if bracing for this outcome, the perpetrator’s parents exchanged a glance and unexpectedly seemed ready to agree to Li Jiaojiao’s terms: "Miss Li, are you sure you’ll only give us five hundred thousand?"

Li Jiaojiao nodded, "Yes, just five hundred thousand!"

The perpetrator’s parents looked at Li Jiaojiao and said: "Fine, then five hundred thousand, but hope Miss Li doesn’t regret it later!"

Li Jiaojiao looked at them both and said: "What do you mean? Are you threatening me? Let me tell you, as long as the Li Family is around, if you dare to say anything, I’ll make sure you regret it. Try me if you don’t believe it!"

The perpetrator’s father dismissed Li Jiaojiao’s threat, instead smiling: "Miss Li doesn’t need to threaten; we’re just ordinary folks, no match for aristocracy. But I heard that the Lin Family’s eldest daughter was very fond of her fiancé. If she wakes up and finds him dead, won’t she investigate whether it was truly an accident?"

"Indeed! Her beloved died in a car crash while she herself was disfigured. With Lin Family’s eldest daughter’s temperament, how could they just let it go?" The perpetrator’s mother echoed: "We can take extra money from the two million Miss Li gave us, but the course of events is out of our control. If they ask us or use some means, we can’t help it! We’re just regular people, after all!"

Listening to the pair’s dialogue, Li Jiaojiao clenched her fists tightly: "Fine, I’ll give you a million! But if the Lin Family traces this back to me, you can follow your son down!"

Saying this, Li Jiaojiao transferred a million to the perpetrator’s parents using the previous account.

Hearing the notification from the phone, the parents finally smiled: "Don’t worry, Miss Li. We’ll make sure no one finds out about this."

Three million in total, enough for them to buy a house in this city of A and establish a foothold, allowing them to enjoy their elderly years in this city where every inch of land is worth gold!
