Chapter 148 - Summer Rain (2/2)

Grandpa Ai sneers, “All these years, our Fortune House has brought about the collapses of almost ten old jewelry stores. Do you know why there are never complaints in the industry?”

Elly wants to say that the reason is that the Fortune House just has won fairly. Suddenly, she remembers that when she was in junior high school, a woman who was bankrupt showed up at the Ai’s family house and she b.u.mped her head against the door. There was blood everywhere. Back then, Grandpa Ai scolded the guards in front of his guests then he held the woman’s hands and told her he would solve her problems… Two years later, in autumn, the woman jumped from the 27th floor of a building. According to the newspaper, she owed too much money because she became a drug addict. No one ever suspected the Ai family about this.

It now appears that the whole thing is suspicious. What did her grandpa really do back then?

Elly s.h.i.+vers. Grandpa Ai says indifferently, “What kind of hero steals other people’s boyfriend? Why don’t you go and conquer some resources for the company… However, since you have already stolen other’s boyfriend, you must make sure that she never rises up again!”

Elly’s eyes are wide open. She stares at her grandpa like it’s the first time she has realized what he is really like. She almost forgets about the pain in her cheek.

Seeing that Elly and Grandpa Ai are about to argue, the master stands up and says, “I’ll let you be.” She walks out of the No.7 Villa and goes along the mountain road.

The scenery in Mount Qingcheng is picturesque and it is the holy land for the Taoist school. Before, people like her would never be allowed to go anywhere near the Qingcheng Taoist Temple, and they must make a detour around Mount Qingcheng when they have to pa.s.s by.

Now… Since the Tao of nature has abandoned those righteous men, why should she fear anymore?

Just like Superior Huizhu can sense her presence, she can also feel the disgusting “righteousness”. What is good and what is evil? She can do whatever she wants to do, yet these righteous men don’t even dare to use the Reiki inside of them. Can they still be called cultivators? They are just a bunch of people who are struggling with death. She lives a much freer life!

Thinking about this, the enchanting woman can’t help laughing.

Twenty years ago, she was a trash cultivator who was cast aside by the main cultivation world. No one expected that she could survive the desperate situation and thoroughly remold herself… Those people who despised her will eventually be defeated by her.

It now appears that what has happened was so ridiculous. How dare man in the level of Laying Foundation draw the conclusion of her life—

I will show you what a different life of cultivation is like!

The enchanting woman laughs. Suddenly, fire sparkles burst out in the incense burner in Huizhu’s house. The incense made by young master An is ruined.

The enchanting woman stops laughing. The No.18 Villa is in sight. Goldie, which is playing in the back yard of the villa, suddenly feels an inexplicable agitation. It flaps its wings and chirps anxiously, which draws the attention of Lin Luoran who is studying prescriptions of medicines.

A heavy gale is blowing. Is it going to rain?

Lin Luoran remembers that her dad is fis.h.i.+ng by the lake outside the villa. She looks down through the window. Her mom has just gone out with an umbrella in her hand.

Lin Luoran smiles. Before putting her focus back on the prescriptions of medicines, she sees a woman in black walking along the mountain road — is this woman a tenant of one of the villas? She may be caught in the rain soon!

At the same time, the woman in black looks up. With her good eyesight, Lin Luoran sees the woman’s expressive eyes and her curvy body. Lin is enchanted…

Thunder strikes. As usual, summer rain is coming.

Trees on the mountain start to shake because of the heavy wind. Dark clouds have gathered quietly. The sky is dark and the air pressure is getting lower.

Mr. Lin packs up his rod under Mrs. Lin’s urge. Mrs. Lin grumbles and goes to find Luodong who is playing at the back mountain. Meanwhile, Li Xi’er runs back happily, holding Luodong’s hand. Qu Yi looks speechless. He “respects” Sister Li for being able to play with mud along with a kid.

This is such a harmonious scene. Lin Luoran, who is in her room, doesn’t realize that sometimes, the change of a person’s life is easy like throwing a pebble into a calm lake—

“Plop…” Luodong kicks a pebble into the lake. The water ripples disappear instantly.

A lightning flashes in the dark sky. Rain starts to fall.

This is the first summer rain this year.

Young master An is walking along a mountain trail with a large lotus leaf over his head. The leaf can barely shelter him from this heavy rain. An looks up at the Lin’s villa. There is not even a stain on his white-soled shoes. He is walking so fast that his feet never touch the ground.

However, will he make it in time?

Only the sound of thunder answers his question!
