Chapter 321: Pure Delusion

Chapter 321: Chapter 321: Pure Delusion

Lu Yiting stared at Cui Yueyue for a while, said nothing, and went straight upstairs back to her room.

This stepsister must have gone crazy, fancying Luo Fangyuan, that hypocritical gentleman and real scoundrel. If she really marries Luo Fangyuan, she’ll suffer in the future.

Such a shameless person, causing such harm to Second Brother, yet the Luo Family used the life-saving favor from the past to make Dad suppress the incident. Few people know the truth, and now with Second Brother still suffering out there, Luo Fangyuan has the nerve to start hopping around again.

They think as long as Dad asks, Grandfather will relent. How delusional.

She didn’t know why Dad had made Second Brother leave Capital City, but she believed Dad wouldn’t really harm Second Brother. But why did Luo Fangyuan do that?

In Ji City, the Yao Chengxuan family was having lunch when their youngest daughter, Yao Shuangshuang, said, "Mom and Dad, a classmate told me her sister said that Sister Luo Qiao ranked first in the midterms." Heh, isn’t that a tongue twister?

Yao Chengxuan laughed, "Luo Qiao is indeed impressive."

Wu Peiling looked a bit disappointed and said, "Luo Qiao hasn’t visited our home for a long time; it seems she’s become distant."

Sitting aside, the younger son, Yao Pengrui, added, "Isn’t that because Big Sister made things so clear with her that now they’ve settled everything with us? Why would she bother coming here for no reason?"

Yao Lili said annoyed, "Can’t even enjoy a meal without you shutting up. It was just luck that she got first place. It’s no big deal."

Yao Pengrui retorted, "Well, you try and get a first place for us to see."

Yao Lili glared at her brother, protesting, "Yao Pengrui, I am your older sister! Can’t you tell who’s who? Must you side with Luo Qiao?"

Yao Chengxuan glanced at his underachieving daughter, "Everyone shut up; look at what a spectacle you all make."

At that moment, the eldest son, Yao Pengfei, spoke, "Dad, there are openings for permanent positions in the factory at the end of the year, can you find someone to get one for me?"

Yao Chengxuan replied, "There are many people in the factory hoping to get permanent positions, many with more seniority than you. I’m afraid that will be difficult."

Time flies. Luo Qiao had stayed in the deep mountains for over a month. During this time, in addition to improving her Special Ability, she had gathered a lot of medicinal herbs to plant in her space and caught many wild animals.

What delighted her the most was finding two orchids. There were many orchids in her space, but those were too well-grown to take out easily. These few were just right to take back and care for. After the New Year, she could find a place to trade them, so when she went back to the village to discuss leasing the mountain, the money could be laundered legally.

Her Special Ability was still at the Second Level, with faint signs of upgrading, but each attempt was aborted halfway, which left Luo Qiao quite helpless. One day, under an ancient banyan tree in the deep mountains, she meditated.

She was thrilled to discover that she absorbed the essence of the vegetation much faster and more smoothly than usual. After meditating under this banyan tree for several days, Luo Qiao finally managed to advance her Special Ability to the Third Level. The banyan tree itself seemed to thrive even more, a relationship of mutual benefit.

After spending another two days in the mountains, she packed up to head down with the intent to make a few more trips before the New Year, to earn more startup capital. Then, she could return just in time for the holiday.

The routine was the same as last time: disguised, she picked up items in the south and then distributed them through black markets in various places. Half a month later, having sold everything, she converted all her cash into goods and headed back. She selected a few cities to distribute some of the goods along the way.

By the time she reached Ji City, it was night. Luo Qiao went straight to a place to change her disguise and went to a black market, where she traded her items with another black market dealer. Now, the goods in her space were nearly gone, and the money in her hands had tripled.

She thought about buying a quadrangle house in Capital City when she went there for the New Year.

When she got home, it was the middle of the night. After soaking in a nice bath in her space, she finally rested, planning to visit the school the next day to check in, as final exams were approaching.

Early the next morning, just after Luo Qiao had freshened up, she heard someone knocking on her door. When she opened it, there was Lu Yichen.

Luo Qiao smiled and asked, "How did you know I was back?"

Lu Yichen replied, "I went out to buy breakfast and passed by. I saw that the door was bolted from the inside, so I brought you breakfast."

Gratefully accepting, Luo Qiao said, "Thanks."

Lu Yichen added, "Final exams are the day after tomorrow, and I thought you’d be back by now."

Luo Qiao smiled, "Yes, when I left, Teacher Ge told me about the rough schedule. I’ve called the school before coming here."
