Chapter 391: Suspicion
Chapter 391 Suspicion
Jiang Huaiyu had set her sights on a storefront property in the center of the county town. She wanted to buy it to allow her mom to start a small business.
Her dad had a job, but her mom didn’t, and Jiang Huaiyu could tell that many people who had started their own businesses had made money.
Nowadays, all the wealthy people are self-employed. Therefore,
she too wanted her family to have money, but her mom felt that street vending was a loss of face, so she thought of buying a shop. That way, even as a self-employed person, it would be prestigious.
"I’ve said it before, don’t let anyone get killed," the man said fiercely.
"I wasn’t planning on killing anyone, just having someone take her—" Jiang Huaiyu’s voice trailed off.
Mengyu’s Divine Sense swept over and saw that she was actually making a disgusting gesture.
She felt a chill in her heart. Making such a gesture towards a man – didn’t Jiang Huaiyu realize how dangerous this was for her?
Or, was her actual goal to seduce that man—
"Fine, I’ll give you twenty thousand," the man said.
Clearly, his voice carried a tone of disgust. If he didn’t need to use this woman, he probably would have stayed far away from her.
Jiang Huaiyu was satisfied.
The two discussed some other matters. Then, with the money in hand, Jiang Huaiyu quickly left the courtyard.
The man stayed for a while longer, waiting until Jiang Huaiyu had safely left before he began to take a shower inside.
Before long, a man walked out casually from the inside.
Upon seeing the man who came out, anger surged in Jiang Mengyu’s heart: she would recognize this man even if he turned to ash, he was a core member of the Human Trafficking Group, Lao San!
She remembered, after the Shared Wife from Tiger Valley attempted her second escape and was caught, the human traffickers gave her an unforgettable lesson. That band of people took turns on her...
How could she possibly forget that bunch of enemies?
Jiang Haidong, Li Chunhua, Jiang Huaiyu, Zhou Daleng, Zhou Erleng, Lao Liu, Lao Wu, Lao Si, Lao San, Second, and the Boss!
Among the six brothers of the Human Trafficking Group, Lao Liu, who sold Mengyu into Tiger Valley, had already been captured and met his fate at the hands of Gu Dongxing. But the remaining five were still at large.
When Mengyu last returned by train from Capital City, the Human Trafficking Group had sent three human traffickers in turn, attempting to drug and sell her off, but fortunately, she was alert and managed to capture those three traffickers instead.
Unbelievably, even after she had come back, the Human Trafficking Group still wasn’t leaving her alone!
Did she have a vendetta with this gang of traffickers?
No, that’s not right. She remembered Cheng Jiuhe telling her that the people supporting Jiang Huaiyu’s family didn’t care about their face, which shows they’re not ordinary in status.
How could a Human Trafficking Group have such a background?
If they really had such a background, why would they still be human traffickers?
And why are they so persistent? Why not kill her, but instead ruin her?
Naturally, Mengyu thought of the rumors Jiang Huaiyu had spread – that her mother got pregnant before marriage and found someone with the surname Lin to marry and cover it up – and then she thought about the lack of a blood connection with Father Lin.
Could it be that she was indeed an illegitimate daughter, and her biological father’s identity was extraordinary?
Was there someone from her father’s family side who didn’t wish for her appearance, thus wanting to suppress her? Or perhaps, it was her father’s enemy who couldn’t take on her father, so they targeted her?
If that was indeed the case, why not simply kill her rather than sell her to the deep mountains to be a Shared Wife?
They must harbor immense hatred against her father for wanting her to live a life worse than death.
