Chapter 498: Burning the Bridge After Crossing the River
Zhou Manning naturally heard the Chi woman’s perfunctory refusal. Hearing her last sentence, “Whatever luck you had before, whatever luck you have in the future!” Zhou Manning’s face stiffened.
Of course, she knew where her luck had come from all these years.
It was just that Zhou Manqing’s luck was gradually being used up; it could be said that Zhou Manning’s luck had never gotten better ever since Zhou Manqing died.
She had been able to last until now with the luck she had borrowed from when Zhou Manqing was still alive.
She had experienced what it felt like to have good luck. Now, she was becoming more and more unlucky, and these were just small misfortunes for the moment. Zhou Manning was very anxious. She originally thought that she could make this woman relent by throwing money at her, but who would have thought that this woman would directly reject her?
Zhou Manning didn’t give up and continued, “Master Chi, if you change my luck, I’ll pay 100 million!”
Chi Shuyan sneered at the other party’s “100 million.” On the surface, this woman said that she only wanted to take back the luck that had been borrowed from her, but in fact, she probably still wanted to borrow luck.
This woman had tasted the sweetness of borrowing luck. Coupled with the fact that this woman surnamed Zhou had no bottom line and conscience, Chi Shuyan wasn’t surprised that she wanted to borrow luck. She now hoped that the real Zhou Manqing would quickly recover and destroy this woman surnamed Zhou.
Chi Shuyan still said coldly, “Miss Zhou, no matter how much you give me, I’ll say it again: Do more good deeds on a daily basis, and your luck will naturally get better over the next few years! Your borrowed luck will also be restored!”
Zhou Manning, on the other hand, was very impatient and furious when she heard this. The phone creaked as her left hand tightened around it, but she curled her lip and said, “Miss Chi, are you really planning to refuse this business that has come knocking on your door? Or do you think that I, Zhou Manqing, am not sincere enough?”
Since this woman didn’t want face, Chi Shuyan couldn’t be bothered to give her any. She said indifferently, “Miss Zhou, I’m not good at changing luck. Please find someone better!”
Zhou Manning hung up right away. Chi Shuyan was originally planning to give Yu Qun a call back, but not long after, she received a notification of a money transfer from the other party. She didn’t plan to take the remaining 50 million from Zhou Manning. Since she hadn’t subdued Zhou Manqing, she naturally couldn’t say anything about the money.
Chi Shuyan clicked on her Alipay account and was about to transfer the money back, when she saw that it wasn’t 50 million, but 10 million!
Chi Shuyan: …
Tsk, tsk, this woman was quick to burn the bridge after crossing it!
It was a good thing she hadn’t gotten rid of that malicious ghost for this Zhou woman. Even if the malicious ghost hadn’t been wronged, she couldn’t be bothered to subdue it for this woman. This woman could do whatever she wanted in the future; it had nothing to do with Chi Shuyan.
Without thinking, Chi Shuyan transferred the 10 million back to the other party, not wanting to have anything to do with her at all.
On the other side, Zhou Manning received the 10 million that the Chi woman had refused. She was so angry that she smashed her phone on the floor with a hideous face.
Yu Rong, who had just come in from outside, jumped in fright when she saw “Manqing’s” twisted and hideous face.
She almost didn’t recognize this “Manqing” as the person she used to know!
“Manqing, what’s wrong with you?” Yu Rong placed the stewed chicken soup next to her bed.
Zhou Manning, who had been playing the role of a ‘good-tempered’ person for so many years, finally couldn’t hold back, and revealed her true colors. Without thinking, she directly flipped the chicken soup which Yu Rong had placed on the table, and it crashed onto the floor. She said malevolently, “That Chi woman doesn’t take me seriously at all! Who does she think she is?”
There was a crash, and Yu Rong jumped in fright.
Yu Rong also heard Zhou Manning’s words and frowned. “Manqing, in the end, Master Chi saved our lives!”
