Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales

Chapter 634: Chapter 634: The Real and Fake Heiress 27

That night at one o’clock, a group of small-time hooligans sneaked up to Yuan Chun’s shop entrance. One of them took out a thin wire, ready to pick the lock, when suddenly, the sky rumbled with thunder, and several bolts of lightning struck down, scaring the hooligans into running for their lives.

But the lightning seemed to have eyes, following the hooligans and striking at their heels.

Two of them, who ran a bit slower, were struck by lightning and fell to the ground, their whole bodies numb, unable to get up for a long time.

The ones who ran faster made it to a square where they suddenly got beaten by ghosts.

The punches landed solidly, yet they couldn’t see what was hitting them, scaring the life out of them, making them wail and cry, even wetting their pants.

The group of hooligans was rushed to the hospital overnight, each shouting about ghosts, sending chills down the spines of the doctors and nurses.

Two of the hooligans were frightened into insanity and, after being discharged, were sent to a mental hospital by their families.

The others, although not driven insane, dared not commit any more mischief or bother Yuan Chun again. In fact, to avoid Lin Zhenfei, they went south together to find work.

When Lin Zhenfei found out he couldn’t track them down, he sent someone to investigate and learned that they had been beaten by ghosts and struck by lightning. Lin Zhenfei spent ten thousand yuan without achieving anything against Yuan Chun, leaving him frustrated and so he invited a few classmates to a bar to drink.

Lin Zhenfei initially didn’t drink alcohol, only ordering a glass of juice.

Juice couldn’t assuage his worries, and coupled with Lin Zhenfei’s previous addiction to alcohol, he couldn’t resist and ordered a low-alcohol drink.

Later, he drank past his limit and, not caring about the consequences, ended up drunk and had classmates take him home.

Once alcohol is started, it can’t be stopped.

After that, Lin Zhenfei went to bars every couple of days, each time returning home drunk and disorderly, but Lin Guowen and Wang Caihua were too busy to manage him.

Lin Jiaojiao could hardly wait for him to drink himself to death.

As a result, Lin Zhenfei’s kidney failure came earlier than in his past two lifetimes.

When Yuan Chun and Cao Shaowu were about to discuss marriage, 007 reported to her that Lin Zhenfei had kidney failure and was undergoing dialysis in the hospital.

Yuan Chun just laughed.

Yuan Chun got out of the car, stopped in front of a vermillion gate of a courtyard, and nervously asked Cao Shaowu, ”Xiao Wu, it’s my first time coming to your house. Is just bringing some fruit too little?”

”No, my grandpa is used to living frugally. If you brought a heap of expensive gifts, he’d be unhappy and call it wasteful.”

Cao Shaowu took the fruit from her hands, held her, and reassured her, ”Xiao Chun, don’t be nervous, my grandpa is easygoing.”

”I’m not nervous.”

Just a bit uneasy.

After all, people who can afford to live in such a courtyard are certainly wealthy, whereas with her background, she was just an uneducated bumpkin, seen as a toad taking away their swan.

Would they even treat her nicely?

Yuan Chun was ready to face their cold stares.

”Xiao Chun, don’t worry, I’m with you.” Cao Shaowu tightened his grip on her hand, his face full of affection, ”Let’s go, we’re going in.”

”Alright.”

Whether you stick your head or pull back, it’s still a knife.

Since she decided to marry Cao Shaowu, she couldn’t back out now.

But truthfully, at this moment Yuan Chun regretted a bit. Why hadn’t she attended night school to gain some knowledge? Now she couldn’t even come up with a story.

After all, her former life was simple, and people could easily find that out.
