All Worlds Beg the Villainess to Act Like a Human

Chapter 293: Chapter 293: Correcting the Girl’s Unfortunate Life (17)

”Wuh Huai, you’d better be sensible.”

A group of boys had surrounded Wuh Huai and started a fight.

Qiann Yan wanted to seize the moment to ask Wuh Huai if his family had discovered any clues, but she saw he was surrounded.

She was about to intervene but realized it wasn’t necessary.

Sure enough, before long, the boys surrounding Wuh Huai were all beaten and lying on the ground. He stepped on one boy’s back: ”I already said I don’t want to give it to you. Aren’t you tired of this?”

Seeing Qiann Yan arrive, Wuh Huai quickly moved his foot away and walked up to her: ”They were trying to rob me, so I fought back.”

The boys: What do you mean rob? They were just asking for money, at most extorting it, definitely not robbing.

Qiann Yan was now sure that Wuh Huai wasn’t stupid.

”Do your parents have any leads?”

Wuh Huai, seeing Qiann Yan wasn’t bothered by the issue, felt relieved: ”Not yet. My parents said they haven’t actively offended anyone. If it’s a business rival, there are too many to count, and they haven’t found out who it is yet.”

Without any clues, Qiann Yan couldn’t do much.

Remembering Wuh Huai’s death in the original memory, she suspected the person who took one of Wuh Huai’s souls might be involved. Perhaps something provoked them, prompting them to act against Wuh Huai.

”Let’s walk home together after school from now on.”

Wuh Huai’s family had a car to pick him up. As long as she saw him get in the car, there wouldn’t be a problem.

If they encountered that person, she could take the opportunity to catch them. Before that, she needed to focus on cultivation.

The fact they had to act in the shadows indicated their cultivation wasn’t very strong.

A few days later, one afternoon, Shang Ruqi called Qiann Yan.

”Qiann Yan, I should be able to make it tomorrow afternoon. I’ll come to the school to find you then.”

Qiann Yan: ”Okay, Auntie.”

The next day was somewhat grueling for Qiann Yan.

Finally, when school ended, she left the classroom with Wuh Huai and walked out of the school gate. She didn’t avoid any suspicions because she wanted Wuh Huai to appear in front of Shang Ruqi to see her reaction.

”Qiann Yan?”

As soon as they stepped out of the school gate, Qiann Yan heard a familiar voice and tugged on Wuh Huai’s sleeve: ”Come with me.”

Wuh Huai obediently followed, not sure what Qiann Yan intended to do.

Shang Ruqi had a more radiant appearance, with somewhat similar features to Shang Ruoya, though their temperaments were quite different.

The moment Qiann Yan saw Shang Ruqi, she sensed a fluctuation of spiritual power.

Had Shang Ruqi been cultivating?

In the morning, she had hidden her powers, showcasing only a faint trace.

”You’re finally back.” Shang Ruqi looked Qiann Yan up and down, ”You’ve gotten much prettier.”

She quickly noticed Wuh Huai standing next to Qiann Yan, somewhat surprised: ”Qiann Yan, do you know Little Hua?”

”Auntie, do you know him?”

Qiann Yan felt quite certain now; there was a high likelihood Shang Ruqi was involved in the plot against the original Qiann Yan and Wuh Huai. Otherwise, it didn’t make sense why Shang Ruqi had a spiritual power aura.

”Little Hua, do you remember me?” Shang Ruqi looked at Wuh Huai, ”I know your mom.”

Wuh Huai looked at Shang Ruqi, unable to recall such a person, and shook his head: ”Sorry, I don’t know you. My mom has lots of friends, and I can’t remember everyone.”

Qiann Yan had been observing Shang Ruqi’s expression, and when Wuh Huai said he didn’t know her, a gleam of satisfaction flashed in Shang Ruqi’s eyes.

Indeed, there was no mistake now.

”Little Hua, haven’t you recovered from your illness?” Shang Ruqi asked with concern, ”I heard your mom mention it before, didn’t expect it to still be like this.”

Wuh Huai shook his head: ”No, probably won’t get better.”
