What to Do When Someone Steals Your Destiny? I'll Just Kill Her-Chapter 10: Upper Taihe Mountain
Chapter 10
Xu's parents' eyes lit up with greed, not hiding their avarice at all.
"Oh, daughter, I'm so sorry, I wronged you."
"Auntie, I don't need your apology." Ren Ran looked at the police officer, "Officer, they came to my school to ruin my reputation and extort 50 million from me. The amount is huge, they should be jailed for years."
Xu's parents were dumbfounded.
"You vicious child, how could you be so malicious?"
Xu's father quickly said, "Young lady, this is all our fault, we were confused and wrongly blamed you. I will discipline Li Li when I get back."
"Your wife tried to hit me several times over this, I can't let this go." Ren Ran pretended to be angry.
Xu's father backhanded his wife in the face.
Everyone present was shocked by this action.
None of them had expected Xu's father to act so decisively.
After all, no real harm was done, it was just a small civil dispute at most, not criminal.
The police could just ask them to apologize at most.
Ren Ran was just trying to scare them.
The teachers and two police officers, being smart people, persuaded her tactfully. Ren Ran agreed not to pursue their responsibility.
After all, she wanted to watch the show.
With the fighting power of this couple, it would be enough to keep Pei Ming busy.
In the shady campus path, Ren Suya gently flicked her daughter's forehead, "Why didn't you tell me immediately when something like this happened?"
"Mom, I was wrong, I'll tell you everything from now on."
Ren Suya looked at her daughter carefully, wondering if she was mistaken that her daughter seemed to have grown up, able to stand on her own already.
Her daughter was stronger than her!
"Mom, you can't keep anything from me in the future either." Ren Ran gave her a warning in advance.
"Okay."
After sending her mother away, as soon as Ren Ran returned to the classroom, Zhao Yi and others immediately showed her the videos online.
She had already seen this video. f𝐫eewe𝚋nove𝗹.𝗰o𝚖
Yesterday, after seeing Pei Ming looking for Xu Li, she originally wanted to drive a wedge between them, but didn't expect Pei Ming to give her such a big surprise.
After separating from Xu Li, she temporarily gave Xu Zhaoyin a mission to follow Xu Li to see what tricks Xu Li and Pei Ming were going to use next, so that she could respond in advance.
As a result, Xu Zhaoyin sent her the video.
She also had Xu Zhaoyin release the video through someone else.
She did this for one purpose only, Pei Ming!
There is a saying: Don't come if you don't return the courtesy, it's impolite.
He played a card, so she had to play a card to match his hard work.
Sure enough, Xu's parents did not disappoint Ren Ran. Pei's family was unwilling to give them the ideal compensation, so the couple went straight to the Pei's company gate to yell and cause a stir. This matter was also posted online, causing quite a sensation.
The Pei family reacted quickly and suppressed the online news.
Xu's parents clung to the Peis like leeches, not caring about their hospitalized daughter at all.
Since they didn't give the hospital money, Xu Li was kicked out by the hospital. Xu's parents simply dragged her to the Pei's company gate for everyone to watch.
Xu Li even felt like dying. She wanted to stop her parents but couldn't persuade them now that they had money in their eyes.
The Pei family was so annoyed by this couple that they reluctantly paid 5 million to get rid of them.
After this incident, the affairs between the Xu and Pei families became well known in Haishi.
Pei Ming and Xu Li also became famous in Haishi.
Without the trouble caused by Pei Ming and Xu Li, Ren Ran could calm down and focus on studying. In her previous life, her greatest wish for her grandparents was to see her go to college, but they didn't make it.
In this life, she couldn't let them down again. She wanted to make them proud.
While studying, Ren Ran never forgot one other thing.
Every time she returned home, she would look for opportunities to secretly put a long hair in Kong Liji's clothes, or leave a lipstick mark somewhere.
The past few days had been peaceful and tranquil, but she knew the tranquility was only superficial. She wouldn't be at ease until she uncovered the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Ren Ran, where are you planning to go for the long vacation?"
"Let's go to the beach. How about you?"
"My mom is taking me to Xinjiang.
"Xinjiang is great, it's beautiful there." Ren Ran said with a smile.
After leaving campus, Ren Ran saw her mother's car parked outside. She said goodbye to Zhao Yi and got in the car.
Ren Ran glanced at her mother, she could clearly feel her mother had something on her mind.
"Mom, are you very tired recently?"
"I haven't been sleeping well lately."
Her mother didn't want to talk more about it with her, so she didn't ask further.
When disappointment accumulated to a certain extent, affection would disappear.
She understood this truth.
"Mom, I made plans with my classmates to go to the beach for the long vacation, so..." She rubbed her thumb and index and middle fingers together.
Ren Suya chuckled softly. "Okay, I'll transfer it to you later. Don't tell your dad, or he'll say I'm spoiling you too much."
"I definitely won't say anything."
The next day, Ren Ran did not go to the beach, but went to Mount Taihe with Xu Zhaoyin instead.
She had been calling the young Taoist priest these days but was never able to get through.
Xu Zhaoyin asked around and was also unable to find the person.
The two agreed to go directly to Mount Taihe to look for him during the long vacation.
Mount Taihe was the birthplace of Taoism, a famous 5A scenic spot. They arrived at the foot of Mount Taihe in the afternoon and stayed overnight, planning to set off the next day.
The scenic area of Mount Taihe was very large. Where they were going this time was not the tourist area, but the unopened area where few people went, only practitioners and ascetics would go there.
Xu Zhaoyin figured out the route in advance. They would need two days in the mountains before reaching the place where the young Taoist priest cultivated.
Bringing enough supplies for outdoor survival, they entered Mount Taihe from the tourist area, then turned onto a sparsely populated trail and entered the uninhabited area. Entering the dense forest, the unspoiled scenery was completely natural. Although the scenery was good, the path below was difficult to walk.
Following the compass, they kept walking along what could barely be called a path forward. Along the way, they left many markings to prevent getting lost.
Two days later, the two arrived at the mud hut of the young Taoist priest, battered and exhausted.
After calling for a long time outside the door without seeing anyone, searching deeper into the mountains would be too dangerous.
There were wild beasts coming and going in the woods, and they were unfamiliar with the terrain, so it was easy to get lost in the forest area.
The supplies they brought were enough for five days of use. If they economized, it could last seven days. After discussing it, they decided to pitch a tent outside the mud hut and wait for him to show up.
They would go out and look around during the daytime but didn't dare go too far.
One day passed without results.
Two days passed, still with no results.
The third day was their limit. If the person still didn't show up today, they would have to go down the mountain tomorrow.
From daylight until nightfall, the hoped for person never appeared.
In the flickering firelight, shadows danced on both their faces.
"Why are you so determined to find him?" Xu Zhaoyin asked curiously.
