Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 537 - 10: Parents’ "Love" (10)

Li Shujun was naturally aware of the investment scam that left them penniless. She took advantage of Li Xue and the others being overwhelmed to sneak away.

She grabbed her stored luggage and made a run for it.

Not wanting to go abroad since she hadn’t studied hard, didn’t speak foreign languages, and living overseas would naturally be inconvenient.

But she also didn’t want her parents to catch her. She knew very well what awaited her if they did.

So, Li Shujun bought tickets to many places and even bought a lot of bus tickets.

However, in reality, she hitchhiked to Lishan City.

Once in Lishan City, she bought anonymous bus tickets to other places.

Overall, she took many detours and finally went to the city they had previously visited for vacation.

During this time, she spent money to create a fake identity.

She bought a single apartment there and began living a carefree life. With four to fifty million in hand, she could live frugally for quite a while!

Once Li Xue finished dealing with things, he realized his youngest daughter was missing.

At first, they thought she had gone out to play. The couple’s emotions were fraying, given how much trouble there was at home, and yet someone still had the heart to go play.

It wasn’t until Li Shujun hadn’t returned home for two days that they realized something was wrong.

They searched Li Shujun’s room carefully and found much of her belongings were gone.

Even the luxury goods she had purchased earlier were all high-quality counterfeits.

Initially, they thought she wasn’t answering calls because she was crazy busy having fun; now, they knew that this unfilial daughter had definitely absconded with the money.

Afterward, Li Xue reported to the police, saying his youngest daughter was missing.

The police began investigating, but couldn’t find anything right away.

Li Xue sold whatever could be sold at home.

Thought the previous investment was promising, Li Xue even took out loans to buy an office building under construction.

He needed to repay the bank.

If he couldn’t repay, he would have to sell the villa.

He wanted to resell the office building, but whether due to the scam or the rumors online that he’d murdered Li Shuning, nobody was buying.

Even those willing to buy had exorbitant demands, with prices impossibly low.

Meanwhile, Li Shuning was on a deserted island lighting a fire for rescue after spotting a ship from high ground.

Originally, Li Shuning was planning to find a way back soon, even without a ship. She planned to draw one over.

Unexpectedly, a ship actually passed by.

Even though it was a bit far, Li Shuning burned a large amount of branches by the seaside, even throwing some plastic containers into the fire.

With plastic included, the smoke became darker.

At first, the ship was traveling normally.

Li Shuning used her spiritual power to sense its movements, and when she noticed it changing course, she knew she had succeeded.

Soon after, the ship arrived at the island.

Jin Mengmeng was very excited, hugging Li Shuning.

The ship turned out to be a luxury cruise ship, the sort offering seven-day tours!

Seeing mother and daughter, everyone was surprised.

After bringing Li Shuning and her daughter onboard, everyone couldn’t help but ask. After all, the island was far from the coast; how had these two ended up there?

Li Shuning’s acting skills were superb.

She immediately burst into tears.

Though mother and daughter were a bit disheveled, the clothes they wore were still normal, saved from a suitcase they had retrieved from the sea.

They were just more tanned.

Li Shuning was naturally beautiful, and her well-practiced crying moved people to pity.

Seeing her mother cry, Jin Mengmeng joined in, which increased others’ sympathy.

As Li Shuning haltingly shared their story, everyone learned what they had experienced.

Were they really harmed by their own parents and sister?

First drugged in their drinks, then abandoned in an inflatable boat.

God, with so much time on a little boat, without incredible luck they surely would’ve died without a trace!

In a vast sea, it’s a prime place to destroy evidence!

Many present felt indignant.

Some even went online with the story.

The captain promptly filed a report!

Upon hearing the news, Wu Yun directly flew to the ship’s final destination to wait.

Even Jin Yang rushed over.

As for Li Xue and Zhao Ying, they remained unable to leave due to being implicated.

Although no one died, it counted as attempted murder. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Despite Li Xue’s repeated denials, the police still required them to remain in Spirit City.

Seeing Li Shuning and Jin Mengmeng safely ashore, Jin Yang couldn’t resist wanting to rush to them, but Jiang Rou tightly held his arm, causing Jin Yang to sigh and restrain himself.

Jiang Rou insisted on coming along when she heard the news, and Jin Yang couldn’t refuse her.

Wu Yun, however, had no such reservations, genuinely excited about Li Shuning’s return.

He stepped forward to hug Li Shuning, who skillfully evaded him, pushing Jin Mengmeng in front instead.

Thus, it was Jin Mengmeng Wu Yun embraced.

Jin Mengmeng was very familiar with Wu Yun.

When Wu Yun hugged her, she called out loudly: "Uncle Wu, I missed you."

Then she swished away, running towards her father.

She didn’t care that a woman was beside her dad; he was her dad, and she needed his comfort right now.

"Dad, I’m so scared, and mom is too scared, but no one came to rescue us. Mom had to work hard every day to keep us alive."

Holding Jin Mengmeng, Jin Yang felt thrilled like he’d regained something precious; she was his daughter, and such emotions left him choked up.

Jiang Rou watched Jin Mengmeng angrily but could do nothing.

Li Shuning’s return complicated things.

Nonetheless, Li Shuning told the police she didn’t want to pursue her family’s wrongdoing.

While the family’s intent to harm her was fact, it was the last time she’d not pursue them. From now on, they had no relation; she planned to publicly sever ties.

Li Xue naturally refused, claiming he and his wife never harmed Li Shuning and never would, thinking as long as he insisted there was no evidence against them, what could happen?

He disgustingly expressed concern for Li Shuning and her daughter, saying he was worried about them!

Even hypocritically mentioning the will, saying if his daughter wasn’t dead, then the will wasn’t valid! Of course, donations were fine, but things like the company should be returned to Li Shuning! Otherwise, how would his daughter and granddaughter live?

Jin Yang outright said he was willing to transfer the shares back to Li Shuning, but she refused!
