An Empress's Return to the Present: The Real Young Lady's Strong Comeback

Chapter 35

Could it be that she could still spend the rest of her life peacefully?

Chen Li was no fool. She knew very well what her father had done.

Her father had sold off one of his kidneys for more than 300,000 yuan. Not only would he be able to repay the money that the other party had demanded, he could also maintain their family expenses for a period of time.

But why did Father have to endure all this?

Chen Li remembered very clearly that day. The cup that she had been holding would not have fallen, and she would not have shattered the cup either.

However, someone had tripped her from behind, and she had truly felt that touch.

When she turned around, Meng Fei was hiding behind the curtain and looking at her.

However, from the angle of the camera, Meng Fei wasn’t filmed at all. It was as if everything was her fault.

It wasn’t her fault, so why did she and her family have to pay the price?

Chen Li looked at the considerably aged faces of her parents, yet was still thinking about how she could help herself settle everything.

She suddenly felt that the fact that she was alive here, her existence seemed to be dispensable.

It was as if her role in this world was merely for the sake of making those who were already superior in the first place feel even higher and nobler.

What was the point of her living? Chen Li disappeared, and she had even taken a few thousand yuan with her.

Her parents looked for her like crazy, but she was nowhere to be seen in the entire village.

Chen Li snuck into the city, bought a second-hand phone, and had the staff teach her how to use it. She created an online account, and then typed a long passage of words.

Chen Li related her own experiences, wanting to tell everyone that she was not a criminal.

However, the netizens didn’t believe this.

After Chen Li’s online account became popular, not only did she not receive any justice, a group of private messages surged into Chen Li’s inbox, and they used very dirty words to insult Chen Li and her family.

On the thirteenth day after leaving the show.

Chen Li hid in the highest level of a hotel in the city, and made the last call with her phone.

“Hello, is this the emergency center? My name is Chen Li. Please pass on this message to my parents. I love them very much, and I am very sorry to them. My will is placed on the bedside table of room 803 of the Fortune Guesthouse.”

“Hold on, don’t be rash…” The person on the other end of the call still wanted to persuade her, but Chen Li hung up the call.

Chen Li wrote the events of the matter in her will.

If she used her own death to announce the truth to the world, would they believe it?

Even if they didn’t believe it, the words that had been dyed red with blood were still shocking enough.

She was only 16 years old. Chen Li closed her eyes and jumped down from the window.

Night fell, and the sound of the howling wind rang out by her ears. Her entire life’s experiences replayed in her mind, and finally stopped on the day that she decided to participate in the show.

Everything was over.

Under the flickering of the multi-colored lights, it was as if her blood was also reflecting a multi-colored light, as if this was a life that she should have had.

Later, the police found her will and brought it to Chen Li’s parents. After reading it, the two of them sobbed uncontrollably. Large tears fell onto the ground, dampening the land that they depended on for survival.

Her will:

‘My dear parents, I’m sorry. I still wasn’t able to become your pride.’

So I don’t want to be a burden on you guys anymore.

‘Father, Mother, please don’t be sad because of me. I didn’t do anything wrong, but no one is willing to believe me. However, the heavens are different. They can see everything that humans do.’

‘I’ll take my leave first!’

Father, you can use that money to take care of yourself and Mother.

‘Mother, you don’t have to worry about your daughter in the future. You have to enjoy your life.’

In the next life, I still hope to be your child. At that time, I will definitely treat you with respect and filial piety.

Mom and dad, I love you.

‘Please don’t cry, okay? If I die, the products at home could also be sold. Your life will become better and better.’

We will meet again in the next life!

…

Chen Li left for a dozen over days, and the show was also nearing its end. Because of the actions of the Ji family, Ji Yao was pushed to the position of number one in terms of popularity as the director had wished, and what the director’s team had not expected was that Gu Xiao had actually rushed to second place on the popularity rankings!

Initially, Gu Xiao had wanted to wait until the show ended to check up on Chen Li, but just a week before the show was about to end, the news of Chen Li’s death suddenly spread out.
