The Hunter's Lucky Little Lady

Chapter 98



98 Strategy

When Qin Meizhen heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

“Ever since I was young, only you had ever said that about me! The people around me are all the kind of people who do whatever I say. I used to think that I was really lucky. Although my biological mother passed away early, my stepmother treated me better than she treated her biological daughter! At that time, I was actually smug. Now that I think about it, I realize how things are! Thank you for telling me the truth!”

Qin Meizhen wasn’t stupid!

After so many things had happened, her state of mind had changed a lot.

When Li Xiaoran heard Qin Meizhen’s words, for some reason, she had already imagined a drama.

Her stepmother treated her better than she treated her own daughter? Tsk, tsk, tsk!

Wasn’t this ruining her through excessive praise?

Damn, incidents in this world were really similar to those in television dramas!

Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran actually felt a little pity towards Qin Meizhen for meeting such a scheming housewife.

“Then do you still want to go home? Your stepmother clearly wants to turn you into a useless person. Now that something like this has happened to you, it might be her doing. You can escape once, but you can’t escape a second time! You can escape a second time, but what about a third time? Will you always be so lucky as to meet good people who will save you?!” Li Xiaoran reminded.

When Qin Meizhen heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she thought of something and couldn’t help but shiver.

“I didn’t even remember until you said so!”

With that, Qin Meizhen grabbed Li Xiaoran’s hand, her face filled with fear.

“This is very likely! If that’s the case, wouldn’t I be walking into a trap if I go back now?”

“Don’t you have anywhere else to go?” Li Xiaoran looked at how frightened Qin Meizhen was and thought for a moment before asking, “You should have someone trustworthy, right?”

Speaking of this, Qin Meizhen realized many things.

The bitter smile returned to her face.

“No wonder. No wonder Uncle and Aunt told me not to listen to my stepmother and to be on guard. I even fell out with them because of their reminder. All these years, because of these things, I haven’t interacted with Uncle and Aunt. What a good move!”

Li Xiaoran was a little dumbfounded when she saw Qin Meizhen’s enlightened expression.

It turned out that this silly girl didn’t suspect her stepmother at all. At this moment, she finally understood!

She wondered if her reminder was right or not!

However, at this point, Li Xiaoran could only continue to help Qin Meizhen.

“In that case, your current situation is a good thing! Your stepmother probably won’t expect you to escape and run to your uncle’s house. This way, you’ll be much safer. If your uncle and aunt really love you, they’ll definitely plan for you!”

“But back then, I angered Uncle and Aunt so much that they even took the initiative to cut ties. How can I still have the nerve to visit them now?!” Qin Meizhen bit her lip and said.

“Is your pride more important or your life? Besides, if they really love you, why don’t you go and apologize? Shouldn’t you?” Li Xiaoran said angrily, “Where does your uncle and aunt live? It’s decided. After we send those bad people to the cops, we’ll see how we send you to your uncle’s house!”

After hearing Li Xiaoran’s words, Qin Meizhen shrugged and said weakly, “I know! You’re right! Actually, there’s no need to trouble you. My uncle lives in town too! Do you know Fulai Grocery? That shop belongs to my uncle’s family!”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she raised her eyebrows.

If this was any other shop, she might not know.

But she knew about this grocery store.

Previously, when she was stocking up on things at home, she had asked the villagers in town. Everyone said that the things at the Fulai grocery store were the best and cheapest.

Therefore, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng bought a lot of things there.

“What a coincidence. I’ve even gone to buy things at this Fulai grocery store! The owner is a middle-aged man with a round face. He looks very amiable!” Li Xiaoran said.

“Yes, that’s my uncle. My uncle is like that! Speaking of which, when my mother was still around, I liked my uncle a lot!” Qin Meizhen recalled some things from her childhood and said.

“Don’t worry! Real family members won’t have overnight grudges! Back then, you were deceived by that evil woman, so you did such a heartless thing! Now that you’ve seen through her true colors and are sincerely repentant, your uncle and aunt will forgive you!” Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but persuade Qin Meizhen.

Qin Meizhen nodded and remembered Li Xiaoran’s words.

“However, you have to use your brain more in the future. You can’t be swayed by your emotions. You have to think twice about everything. Think more, listen more, and ask more questions. You can’t be willful. You can’t do whatever you think of!” Li Xiaoran finally warned again.

Li Xiaoran was really worried!

She was worried that Qin Meizhen was really a pushover or someone who could be easily coaxed back.

Her stepmother was so smart. It was naturally easy for her to fool Qin Meizhen.

Therefore, she had to take precautions first.

As they spoke, Luo Cheng walked into the main hall with a dark expression.

“What’s wrong? Why do you look so pale?” Li Xiaoran’s heart skipped a beat when she saw Luo Cheng like this. She had a premonition.

“The subordinate I sent to follow this group hasn’t returned. I was worried that something had happened to him, so I asked around. In the end, they killed him!” Luo Cheng said with a terrible expression.

When Qin Meizhen heard Luo Cheng’s words, she immediately remembered something.

“Did you send someone after we left the noodle stall? If that person is your person, then that group of people lied to you! Your person isn’t dead, but he escaped with injuries. However, he’s seriously injured. I wonder if he can rush back in time!”

Luo Cheng perked up when he heard that.

“Are you telling the truth?”

“Yes, as long as that person is someone you sent, I’m certain!” Qin Meizhen nodded and said.

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said to Li Xiaoran, “Wife, I want to go out and take a look. If he’s really seriously injured, it’s not too late for me to rush over now!”

Li Xiaoran knew what Luo Cheng was worried about and said to him, “Go! I’ll stay at home! Those people can’t do anything now. Aren’t Big Yellow and the others still around?”
