Chapter 25: The Wind Has Begun to Blow; Let the Jia Family Go Bankrupt

To be honest, Jiang Niannian wasn’t particularly fond of the female lead.

The only motivation for her to finish this dog-blood fantasy cultivation novel was Yin Li, now known as Yin Buqi.

She always hoped that Yin Li would overcome numerous trials and emerge victorious among the seven men entangled with Tang Muruo, making her change her mind and ultimately end up with him.

However, her hope was in vain; not only did Yin Li become the second male lead, but he also met a tragic end.

While other female leads relied on intelligence and bravery to rise to the top, this woman seemed to just stand there and have countless men bow down to her.

Even if she made a huge mistake, a single tearful cry could easily make men go crazy over her and forgive her, thanks to her unparalleled beauty.

And every time she made a mistake, it inadvertently hurt those around her.

For example, Yin Li, who was backlashed by forbidden techniques for her and Yin Li, who fell into demonic cultivation and was killed by her own hand.

Yet she maintained an innocent demeanor.

Others might think she was just too charming, and those who sacrificed themselves did so willingly.

What fault did she have?

Jiang Niannian originally found it hard to accept this novel’s setting, but upon seeing Tang Muruo in person, she seemed to understand the feelings of those people.

Tang Muruo’s appearance indeed had that kind of capital.

However, it still didn’t change her aversion to Tang Muruo.

“Rourou, let’s go.”

The man on the white wolf called out to her; though his face was expressionless, his concern was evident in his eyes.

He must be Tang Xuanye, the Northern Wolf King.

Tang Muruo, an orphan, was taken in by Tang Xuanye when she was very young and raised as his sister.

However, over time, feelings beyond sibling affection developed.

It seemed that they hadn’t yet broken through that layer of unspoken understanding.

“Okay, Brother.”

Tang Muruo gave Jiang Niannian a helpless smile and said, “Miss, my brother and I have something to attend to, so we’ll take our leave.”

Tang Xuanye carefully picked her up and placed her on the white wolf.

“Oh, brother, I can get on by myself.”

Tang Muruo lowered her head and murmured in a reproachful tone.

Tang Xuanye was not annoyed; instead, his gaze softened even more.

The white wolf trotted away, and Jiang Niannian put her hat back on and headed towards the clinic.

“Who was that girl earlier? I’ve never seen her before, but she’s truly stunning!”

“Based on my years of experience in the brothel, that woman’s figure is absolutely top-notch. I’d love to have a feel…”

“You’re really bold. I don’t know who will be lucky enough to marry her, but I’d be willing to lick her feet!”

“Anyway, it’s not like we common folks will ever get a chance!”

“Li Er Niang, your old man is out looking at pretty girls again!”

“I’m not, I didn’t, you filthy thing, stop making stuff up!”

Jiang Niannian sighed.

Here we go again.

Wherever Tang Muruo appeared, such comments were inevitable.

Jiang Niannian found the doctor and was on her way back to the inn when she suddenly heard a commotion ahead.

She saw a burly man with a fat face fiercely grabbing a woman’s hair and slamming her head against the nearby wall.

She frowned and said to the doctor, “You go to the inn and save the people in the first room on the left on the second floor. I’ll go check it out.”

“Got it.”

“Why are you running? If you follow me, do you still lack these spiritual stones? I guarantee you won’t have to worry about food or clothing for the rest of your life!”

The man pressed the woman against the wall with a lecherous smile.

“Young master Jia, please, let me go… I beg you…” The woman cried and struggled, only to further infuriate the man.

With a sharp smack, the man slapped the woman’s face, and her dense hair fell from her shoulder to her chest, covering her side profile.

“Don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! You ungrateful thing!”

Just as his raised hand was about to come down again, it was struck by a burst of spiritual energy.

With a scream, the man’s arm dropped limply, likely dislocated.

His body fell to the ground, convulsing in intense pain.

【Twirl, leap, and close my eyes~】

Jiang Niannian: “…”

She walked over, looking down at the man on the ground, and shouted, “In broad daylight, bullying a weak woman, are you even a man!”

The woman behind her tugged at her sleeve, crying softly, “Thank you… You should leave quickly. If you hit him, his father won’t let you go… It’s all my bad luck… to be targeted by him.”

The enraged man on the ground shouted, “Do you know who I am? I’m the young master of the Jia family. My father is Jia Shuisheng, the wealthiest man in Huaijiang City. You dare hit me? Aren’t you afraid of my father sending someone to kill you!”

Jiang Niannian laughed in anger, hitting the young master so badly that even his father wouldn’t recognize him.

She then gave the woman some spiritual stones and advised her to leave quickly to avoid retaliation from the Jia family.

The woman, deeply grateful, hugged her and cried for a long time before leaving.

After dealing with the scum, Jiang Niannian focused on returning to care for her own little cub. As she passed a teahouse, someone threw a pink spring flower that landed perfectly on her shoulder.

Jiang Niannian took off the flower and looked up at the teahouse, but there was no one there.

A gentle breeze blew by, and she instinctively pulled her fingers back, preventing the flower from flying away.

Feeling a bit puzzled, Jiang Niannian didn’t dwell on it and hurried back to the inn.

Inside the teahouse.

An undercover guard kneeled respectfully before a richly dressed man: “Young master, do you have any instructions?”

The man, with a nonchalant smile, picked up a golden jade teacup and took a sip. He raised an eyebrow slightly and said, “Before sunset, make the Jia family go bankrupt.”

“Do you mean…”

“Take back all the restaurants under Jia Shuisheng’s name.”

The undercover guard was taken aback and asked, “But what has Jia Shuisheng done wrong?”

“Just don’t like him.”

The man smiled and then lazily added, “Go on, be quick about it.”

“Yes, young master. I understand.”

The undercover guard’s figure vanished instantly, and the man set down his teacup, playing with a folding fan with disinterest.

Jia Shuisheng’s poor parenting and offense against his fairy would only earn him a small lesson.
