Chapter 342: Revenge
Jing Ni walked over and raised her palm at Mai Qi. “Come on. Give me five! For your freedom!”
Mai Qi high-fived Jing Ni, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled.
I sighed heavily. “So my little uncle has been abandoned for no reason. This is so sad. I need to drink to forget this!”
The three of us laughed again.
Although the candidate for my little aunt had been left empty again, seeing the change to my two best friends, what else could I do but wish them well?!!
Since my rebirth, the trace of my previous life became lighter and lighter. And the changes to my life affected the fates of others.
Even though she had to go through a traumatic experience, Jing Ni survived. Mai Qi was like another version of myself.
How did the three of us become such good friends? It was because we could see ourselves in each other. We appeared to have completely different personalities, but deep down, we had something in common. Moreover, we could see important qualities that we wanted to replicate in each other.
Therefore, we became friends to help and assist each other.
…
Just like that, Auntie Lan took me as her daughter-in-law. Both Jing Tian and my little uncle sighed in relief.
My little uncle almost bowed at Jing Tian. “Take it, take her away. I am willing to sacrifice this family’s only girl to clear up this ridiculous misunderstanding between us.”
I was dissatisfied. “Mr. Tong Le, how unprincipled can you be? You’re selling me out for your reputation?”
Mr. Tong Le rolled his eyes. “Why can’t I? Do you expect me to go to Mrs. Jing to explain myself again? Do you think she will believe me? If anything, she’ll start preparing the ceremony to have Jing Tian marry you right away! Plus, let me tell you, she’ll do it without even asking for Jing Tian’s permission!”
I thought about it and had to agree. That did sound like something Auntie Lan would do.
I turned to Jing Tian, “Hmm, should I go explain the situation on my little uncle’s behalf? I will tell her that there’s nothing between you and my little uncle.”
Jing Tian turned his head away before he burst out laughing.
Tong Le pulled me aside and said angrily, “All you know how to do is to come up with these horrible ideas!”
He pointed at Jing Tian and told me, “He has promised me that he’d wait until you were twenty-two years old! While he can wait, but you can’t? You wretched girl, do you really think I won’t break your legs?”
I hid behind Jing Tian and stuck my head out to taunt my little uncle, “I don’t believe you! Come and break my leg then! Then I’ll tell Auntie Lan that you beat me because you were angry when you heard I am supposed to marry Jing Tian! Let’s see what Auntie Lan will do!”
I was giggling, seeing the helpless expression on Tong Le’s face.
Life with my little uncle was very bright and colorful. Even though he didn’t act like my elder, he doted on me like no one else. If not for those demons and monsters, the three of us actually had quite a happy life.
However, the demons and monsters had to do something to prove their presence.
Therefore, I was not shocked when Ye Qian came to find me. Her face was tired, which surprised me.
“What’s wrong?” We met at a cafe. I pushed the coffee that the waiter brought to Ye Qian.
Ye Qian stirred it, picked it up, took a sip, put down the cup, and looked at me. “Nanxing, we… don’t have any bad history between us, right?”
I was stunned. Well, in my previous life, she pushed me to commit suicide, made me lose my marriage, children, and family for her own selfish interests!
I put down the spoon in shock. “Why would you say that? Of course, we don’t!”
