Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

”Why hasn’t your brother come back from fetching water yet?” Mrs. Huang looked at the door and asked Second Sister Huang, who was eating sunflower seeds next to her, ”You should go check on him, in case something happened.”

Something happened?

Second Sister Huang didn’t even pause in her shelling of the sunflower seeds, continuing to crack them open, ”Nothing’s going to happen, Mom, don’t worry.”

If something happens, it would happen to someone else.

Earlier, when she went out, she saw Huang Yongqi pulling that girl into a small storeroom, and from what Huang Yongqi said, he was planning to use force?

Second Sister Huang wasn’t worried at all that Huang Yongqi forcing himself on Hao Lianlian would result in anything between him and her.

She felt she had a decent understanding of Hao Lianlian.

This girl, she’s nothing like what she used to think.

If she was really violated by Huang Yongqi, she’d rather die than marry him.

When that time comes, Huang Yongqi would give up on her, too.

Because of this, they would become enemies, and she didn’t believe that in his heart, there could still be room for Hao Lianlian.

As for what if Hao Lianlian reports him?

Second Sister Huang had already thought it through. When the time comes, she’d testify for Huang Yongqi. Let’s see if the police would listen to Hao Lianlian or Huang Yongqi.

A woman who seduces men has no sense of shame. A few years ago, she’d have been paraded in disgrace.

Spit... she’s just happened to get lucky this time.

So, after Huang Yongqi and Hao Lianlian went in, she placed a warning sign on the road, saying ”Construction in progress, no through traffic, please detour.”

Ha ha, now no one would pass through there, and Huang Yongqi could do as he pleased.

”You should go check on him.” Mrs. Huang still felt uneasy, ”My eyelids keep twitching.”

”Fine, I get it.” Second Sister Huang impatiently put down the sunflower seeds in her hand, stood up, and dusted off herself, ”I’ll go and see.”

Let’s see how that slut is doing now.

But when she got there, she found the sign she had placed was gone. Had the janitor taken it away?

Hearing voices from over there, Second Sister Huang felt even more curious. She quickly walked over and discovered that quite a crowd had already gathered.

”Tsk tsk, it’s really tragic, beaten up like this.”

She hadn’t even gotten close yet when she heard someone say that.

Second Sister Huang couldn’t help but have a bad feeling.

”Let me through, let me through,” she hurriedly pushed through the crowd and said.

”What’s wrong with this person?” someone angrily shouted.

Second Sister Huang couldn’t care less by then because she saw Huang Yongqi lying on the ground.

He was wearing the very clothes she had bought for him; how could she not recognize them?

”Yongqi, what happened to you?” Second Sister Huang rushed over.

This wasn’t how it was supposed to be! What on earth happened?

”Don’t interfere with our investigation,” a police officer stopped Second Sister Huang and said.

Police?

Could it be that their Yongqi was beaten to death?

What else could it be?

”He’s my brother,” Second Sister Huang said.

”Your brother? Well then, you’ll have to come with us too,” the police officer said.

”Why... do I have to go with you too...” Second Sister Huang said awkwardly.

”To cooperate with the investigation,” the police officer said.

”In... investigation of what?” Second Sister Huang started to feel scared.

”You’ll find out when we get there.” The policeman, an old police officer, looked at her and immediately sensed something was wrong, telling her coldly.

Second Sister Huang instantly panicked.

Could it be that someone knew?

But how could that be?

She had looked around to make sure no one was there before she left!
