Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 440: Chapter 440: Life at Stake

Liu Miao sat on the ground in disappointment.

If it wasn’t Wang Peiling, then who could it be? Could it be that Gu Haojun was telling the truth?

But what should she do now?

After this incident, what would the people at the factory think of her?

Liu Miao didn’t want to think about that now. What she had to figure out was how to shake off Zhang Qiang’s entanglement.

”This... what’s going on?” Aunt Liu was still looking confused.

How did it go from Gu Haojun to the man in front of her?

Honestly, though she often scolded Liu Miao, she was still her daughter. No matter how she looked at Zhang Qiang, he just seemed unpleasing, clearly not a good person.

She was hoping that Liu Miao would help out Liu Tian more in the future.

If Liu Miao married this fellow, who clearly looked like a lazy person, it would be a blessing if he didn’t drag their family down.

”I know this pendant; Miao Miao picked it up.” Aunt Liu suddenly spoke as if enlightened, ”Since this pendant you claim is yours, we’ll return it to you.”

Aunt Liu took the silver pendant off Liu Miao’s neck. It was of decent quality, and she was a bit reluctant to part with it.

She cursed Liu Miao thoroughly in her mind.

If that dead girl had told her sooner, this thing could have been hidden at home, and none of this would have happened!

Despite her reluctance, Aunt Liu grit her teeth and stuffed the item into Zhang Qiang’s hand, ”This matter is our Liu Miao’s fault. Please forgive her for being young and naive.”

After that, she even bowed to Zhang Qiang.

The older, the wiser indeed.

If someone has admitted their fault and you’re still holding on to it, it shows your intentions aren’t pure.

Maybe it’s really as Liu Miao said, that you deliberately placed the pendant there to trap her, this foolish girl.

Yet, if Zhang Qiang was the kind of reasonable person, this wouldn’t have happened.

”Mom.”

”I’m not your mom, don’t call me that,” Aunt Liu said angrily.

”Alright, Aunt Liu,” Zhang Qiang said with a smile, ”Your family took my betrothal gift, and now you’re just returning the pendant, isn’t that appropriate? In the Zhang Family, once something is given, it’s not taken back.”

”What? Do you want to force it?” Liu Tian said fiercely, ”Kid, I’m telling you, if you want to marry my sister, there’s no way.”

”I picked up this pendant,” Liu Miao snapped back into reality and shouted at Zhang Qiang, ”It must have been you, you deliberately left the pendant on my way home.”

She regretted it deeply now, she should’ve given it to Aunt Liu instead of wearing it herself.

”Don’t think you can force me, I would rather die than marry you,” Liu Miao glared fiercely, ”You’re all forcing me, all of you.”

With that, she gritted her teeth and ran towards the large elm tree not far away.

Anyway, she couldn’t just be trapped by Zhang Qiang like this; she returned the pendant, what more could he want?

Seeing her dead, let’s see how he plans to make her marry him?

”Oh no, hurry up and stop her.”

”Someone’s going to get killed.”

”Tsk tsk...”

Who would have thought Liu Miao, who usually didn’t make a sound even when being bullied by Zhang Cuilan, had such a fierce temperament, even ready to crash into a tree, showing how much pressure she was under.

Zhang Qiang and Zhang Cuilan didn’t expect it either.

”Hurry and stop her, oh my god,” Zhang Cuilan shouted, slapping her thigh.

If she really died like this, they’d be in trouble.

This dead girl, who knew she’d be so ruthless to herself.
