Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 1362 - 1381: Decision

It must be said that even shameless scoundrels are afraid of psychopaths.

"Sister Shi, is everything ready for the Christmas banquet?" Leng Ran suddenly asked.

"Everything is prepared, but I’m afraid Jiang Nanfei won’t come."

"Jiang Nanfei must come." Leng Ran actually felt very conflicted inside, but she had no way out now, and she had a premonition that Jiang Nanfei was very important to her. "Please go and invite her again, remember to be polite, and definitely don’t offend her."

"Alright, but..." Shi Cin hesitated for a moment, "We already had an unpleasant encounter with Jiang Nanfei last time; I’m afraid she might bear a grudge."

Leng Ran thought for a moment before saying: "No problem, He Shasha will be coming too. Even if she doesn’t want to come, she would attend for He Shasha’s sake."

Jiang Nanfei was somewhat too kind-hearted, and He Shasha was deeply devoted to her. She would never ignore He Shasha, and since she already knows what she’s doing now, she would definitely follow out of concern.

In the second half of the night, the heavy snow gradually lessened, turning from thick flakes into a few sparse snowflakes. However, the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow; every step left a deep imprint. Zhuanzhuan, wrapped in a cotton-padded coat that provided little warmth, trudged along the mountain road, one step deep and the next shallow.

There was not a single person on the mountain road, not even a passing car in sight. A streetlight hundreds of meters away emitted a dim light; though not bright, the snow-covered ground made the visibility exceptionally clear.

Zhuanzhuan’s face was expressionless; her eyes, usually sharp and spirited, now held an unprecedented cold and predatory look, as if filled with overflowing viciousness.

The shoes on her feet had long been soaked through, yet there she walked on the cold snowy ground, letting the northwesterly wind slice through her body as if she felt nothing at all. Moreover, she was injured; the knife wound hadn’t fully healed, and the recent throw by Leng Peixi had been excruciating.

She wasn’t afraid of the cold, nor the pain. Because all that she was suffering now was nothing compared to her childhood! She was different from others; while most people would avoid recalling the pain and torment they have suffered, she rather liked to remember it.

Over the years, she repeatedly recalled and tormented herself time and time again, eventually becoming what she is now.

Zhuanzhuan asked herself, isn’t everything great now? The answer is yes, it’s great – her family has money, she’s no longer looked down upon by others, and no one bullies her. But to her, all this wellbeing is no different from before.

Now that she was no longer afraid of being bullied, no one dared to bully her anymore; all those who had bullied her would pay the price.

Zhuanzhuan’s bloodthirst pulled at the corner of her mouth.

Thinking about Leng Peixi’s threat and her arrogant control of power, the corner of her mouth slowly curled into a sneer. Then, recalling her sister who had struck her mercilessly, pushing her to a dead end, she revealed a smile uglier than crying.

Just then, a line of bright headlights appeared on the highway ahead; the police car’s roof flashing beacon lights. Zhuanzhuan voluntarily stopped by the roadside, squinting her eyes as she watched the approaching police car without any hint of backing down from the decision she had made.
