366: Arriving at Chujia Village, the Chuxiong couple's nightmare hits

"Husband! How about we make some time these next few days and go look for that dead girl again?"

"Maybe that girl couldn't stand the hardship herself and ran away overnight to hide in a nearby house?"

"If that little b*tch really is hiding, then we must quickly catch her and bring her home..."

"Without her to boss around these past few days, all the farm work in the fields and chores in the house have to be done by us, we're exhausted."

"And for some reason... I always feel uneasy! I keep feeling like something big is about to happen, I'm so flustered..."

"..."

Tao Yan clutched her chest, her brows tightly furrowed.

Out of a woman's unique sixth sense, her intuition told her that Chu Ling's disappearance might have more to it.

Faced with Tao Yan's worries, Chu Xiong didn't take them seriously, thinking his wife was overthinking things and looking for trouble.

But considering it's better to be safe than sorry, Chu Xiong finally nodded.

"Alright then! I'll wander around the Chu Family Village these next few days and pay more attention to the surrounding situation."

"If that little b*tch really did hide herself, just wait until I catch her, I'll show her how I'll torture her to death..."

"Hmph! We painstakingly raised her! Her cheap life belongs to us, she can only serve our family like an ox or a horse to repay us for her entire life!"

"..."

As he spoke, Chu Xiong unconsciously licked his lips, a sinister smile appearing on his face.

Even now, he still harbored some dirty desires for Chu Ling.

If he got another chance... he would absolutely not let his plaything run away again, he would definitely enjoy the taste of a noble young lady from the city to the fullest.

Especially since this wealthy young lady was someone he had watched grow up since she was a child, enjoying her would definitely have a unique flavor.

That kind of pleasure, tinged with a hint of taboo, just thinking about it made him feel... stimulated!!!!!

At this moment, Tao Yan's hopeful voice came from beside him.

"ε=(´ο｀*))) Oh! Husband, how long do you think it will be until we can reunite with our daughter..."

"I really hope that day comes soon! I can't wait to go to the city and enjoy a life of luxury."

"..."

Glancing at the dilapidated, drafty house, Chu Xiong's face darkened; how could he not want that?!

Having lived in this godforsaken village for decades, he had long felt an immense disgust for the visible poverty of their home.

Fortunately, because of Tang Rou's existence, the couple had the opportunity and confidence to cross social classes, and they were full of anticipation for their future life.

(*❦ω❦).

In the imagination of Mr. and Mrs. Chu Xiong, their biological daughter bringing them back to the city to enjoy a good life was only a matter of time...

"I think it's about time we tried to get in touch with Xiao Rou..."

"Before, we considered that the child was still young and worried she wouldn't be able to accept the truth."

"At the same time, we were also afraid that striking too early would arouse the suspicion of the Tang Family, leading to the failure of our plan."

"Therefore, for all these years, we have been restraining the urge to contact our biological daughter."

"But now, so many years have passed, and Xiao Rou has completely established herself in the Tang Family. We basically don't need to worry about her identity being exposed anymore."

"Plus, the child just turned eighteen this year, she's an adult now and has the right to know the truth."

"It's time we let her know... who her true family should be..."

"Even if we can't openly reunite with Xiao Rou for now, it would be good to at least ask her for ten to eight million to improve our lives!"

"..."

Chu Xiong grinned, and as he spoke excitedly, his expression became thrilled and ecstatic.

He knew that it wouldn't be long before he would be picked up to enjoy wealth and glory in the city, become the CEO of a wealthy family, marry a beautiful and rich woman, and reach the pinnacle of his life. Just thinking about it made him a little excited... immense fortune was right before his eyes!!!!!

"Yes, yes, yes! We've suffered for so many years, it's about time our hardships came to an end!"

"The Tang Family's vast wealth will eventually all belong to us. Now they're just temporarily keeping it for us, haha..."

Tao Yan nodded repeatedly, beaming with joy, her sharp, mean face full of smugness.

"And that little b*tch Chu Ling, if she was really abducted, that's fine, but if she ran away secretly..."

"Then this time, once we catch her, why don't we just find an opportunity to beat her to death with sticks, to save her from bothering our daughter in the future and increasing the risk of exposure."

"..."

Faced with his wife's malicious suggestion, Chu Xiong frowned slightly, noncommittal.

It wasn't that his conscience had suddenly awakened, or that he suddenly remembered the many years of father-daughter affection with Chu Ling; he was just still thinking about deflowering his adopted daughter, and the lust in his heart made him reluctant to kill Chu Ling just like that...

"Why kill that dead girl?"

"She's a real wealthy young lady. Wouldn't it be better to keep her as our servant, to serve us, do our laundry, cook, and pour tea for us?!"

"Ah... this? What you said actually makes a lot of sense..." Tao Yan proudly stroked her chin, her face beaming.

"Then we'll spare that dead girl's dog life and let her continue to serve our family like an ox or a horse."

"؏ ؏ ♦ ᖗ Buddha ◡ Buddha ᖘ ♦ ؏ ؏ Reasonable~~ Hahaha..."

...Just as Mr. and Mrs. Chu Xiong were laughing wildly, their faces arrogant...

Outside the house.

Suddenly, an alarm sounded, the noise growing from far to near.

Hmm???

What's going on?!

This sounds like a police car?

But in this godforsaken village that even wild dogs wouldn't bother to enter, why would police suddenly visit?!

The couple exchanged glances, their hearts sinking, a premonition of ill omen rising within them.

Tao Yan stammered, unable to speak properly, her already restless eyelids now twitching violently.

"Husband, wha-wha... what's happening?! Why are the police here? Are they... are they here to arrest someone?"

"You f*cking ask me? Who should I ask?! Why are you panicking, calm down! The possibility of them coming for us is extremely low, at most 5%, what are you afraid of..."

Chu Xiong glared fiercely at his wife, thinking women were just too impatient. He swaggered to the window, pulled back the curtain, and calmly looked outside.

"(ÒωÓױ)!!! Holy sh*t!!!"

The next second, Chu Xiong's eyes rolled back, and he fainted straight away from fright...

It seems I truly have no luck with windfall gains. I originally took advice from people around me and bought some funds on WeChat Wealth Management, planning to see if I could get rich quickly, making money from money.

It seems I don't have that dog-shit luck. o(╥﹏╥)o

Fortunately, I only bought 1000 yuan, and I lost almost 70 yuan in two days. I don't know if there's a chance to break even, or if the 1000 will be completely lost.

Now, taking it out would also cost a dozen yuan in fees, so I plan to leave this money in there and see if there's a chance to break even after a while... Bought on the 19th, confirmed on the 22nd.

On the 22nd, I lost 42 yuan. On the 23rd, I lost 26 yuan. 70 yuan gone in two days. I really am not suited for gambling; I always lose when I gamble... It was fine before, but as soon as I bought this fund, it plummeted. I'm cursed! The interest from Yu'e Bao is better, though small, it won't lose money...
