Waking up one day, Wen Le found himself a miserable "cabbage flower" on a future abandoned planet, tears streaming down his face. He was just a bit of a homebody, did they really have to se...
Chapter 61 Prelude
Wen Nuan stumbled out of her room and searched the living room for her parents, but couldn't find them. Then she remembered they'd gone shopping. Her parents were ordinary workers at a parts processing factory, their monthly salary supporting their family of four. They'd always lived a comfortable life, but they'd never dreamed of a better life. After her uncle and aunt passed away, the family inherited her cousin's estate, and life improved. With a large monthly payment of interest and rent, her parents simply quit their jobs and settled into a life of leisure.
Because her uncle and aunt were psychics, they worked for a hunting group and earned a high income, leading to a comfortable life. Wen Nuan had seen her uncle's family travel to other planets whenever her cousin had a holiday, and it would be a lie to say she wasn't envious. Sometimes she even felt jealous, thinking the world was unfair. They were all children of the Wen family, so why did her cousin have such a good life while she and her brother had to live with their parents in a 90-square-meter house, struggling to make ends meet.
Later, her uncle and aunt died and left behind a large inheritance. Wen Nuan saw her mother secretly laughing with tears in her eyes when she knew about the money, and she felt relieved at that time.
As a result, my uncle and aunt notarized the medical advice in advance, which angered my parents, who had hoped to receive the inheritance. Despite this, they were able to move into my uncle's large house as guardians. Six months later, my cousin ran away from home due to depression caused by his failure to awaken his superpowers.
This is what the parents said to others, but in fact, only they themselves know the truth.
They originally thought that such good days would last forever, but the real owner suddenly appeared. It was a terrifying feeling, like a dead person suddenly resurrected before their eyes.
Wen Nuan was alone at home, thinking about all sorts of things. The more she thought, the more upset she felt. Just then, her brother came back with his girlfriend in his arms. He held his girlfriend in one hand and carried a few shopping bags in the other. Looking at the logos on the shopping bags, it was obvious that he had spent a lot of money on this trip.
Wen Nuan was already in a bad mood, and this made her even more furious. She yelled at Wen Xin, "All you do all day is spend money. What else can you do besides spending money?" He was in a critical situation, but he still had the mind to buy luxury goods for his girlfriend.
After saying that, she pointed at Wen Xin's girlfriend and said, "Why do you ask my brother to buy things for you all day long? Do you have any shame?" This woman dressed up gorgeously and asked her brother for luxury goods all day long. She had disliked him for a long time, and today she took out her anger.
The other party rolled his eyes when he heard this: "Your brother is willing to buy it for me, what's it to you?" After saying that, he snatched the shopping bag from Wen Xin's hand, threw it behind him and left.
Wen Xin glared at his sister angrily, said "I'll deal with you when I come back!" and ran out, obviously to chase his girlfriend.
Wen Nuan angrily threw the fruit plate on the coffee table to the floor. Still not satisfied, she kicked the sofa next to her a few times. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Finally, unable to hold back, she texted her parents. At first, they thought it was a sibling quarrel and scolded her. This pissed Wen Nuan off so much that she yelled, "Wen Le is back! I saw him!"
The couple didn't care about shopping anymore. They hurried back home and asked their daughter as soon as they entered the house: "Where is that kid? Where is he?"
As she spoke, Xu Li's expression became faintly ferocious, and the veins on her temples bulged out, revealing her inner turmoil at the moment.
Wen Ming took a deep breath with trembling lips, looking a little panicked, muttering to himself: "It's over, it's over, it's all over now." He had disagreed when his nephew was asked to be sent away. After all, as long as the child was fed and not starving to death, he could just pretend not to see him. But his wife just couldn't tolerate the child, and teamed up with his brother-in-law to send him away.
Now that the child is back, the police station will definitely send someone to question them. If the child holds a grudge against them and tells everything, then the couple and their brother-in-law will all go to jail.
Xu Li couldn't stand her husband's cowardly and cowardly behavior. He would shrink back when faced with the slightest problem and had no courage at all.
Wen Ming seemed to have thought of something and complained to his wife, "I told you to be patient at the beginning. He was just an ignorant child. How could he get in your way? You just couldn't tolerate him and had to send him away. Now look what happened, he found himself back."
Xu Li's face turned green with anger when she heard this: "You're blaming me now? Why didn't you stop me when I was about to send him away? You took the benefits, and now that something's wrong, you're pretending to be a good person? I was so blind to fall for you, but you hide your head in your shell when things get tough. If you had any ability, I wouldn't do such a wicked thing!"
Hearing this, Wen Ming also got angry and his voice suddenly became louder: "Yes, I have no ability, then why did you marry me in the first place? You compare me with this and that all day long, why don't you compare yourself with others? Let's not talk about distant ones, just take my sister-in-law as an example, she is also a woman, how much does she make a year, how much do you make a year?
Don't say I got some benefits, didn't you get any benefits? How much money did you transfer to your mother's family? Do you think I don't know? That money was earned by my brother and his wife with their lives! "
"Wen Ming, you bastard, do you have any conscience left?" Xu Li was furious when she heard her husband's words. She rushed over and tried to grab his face. "I gave birth to your children and endured so many hardships with you for so many years, and in the end, this is how you treat me?! I'm going to fight you!"
Seeing her parents about to fight, Wen Nuan stamped her foot in anger and shouted, "Alright, stop arguing! You just quarrel whenever something happens. Now that things have come to this, how can quarreling lead to a solution?"
No wonder their family lived like that before. With their temperaments of always quarreling over things, it would be strange if they could live a good life!
This reminded the couple. Xu Li no longer cared about grabbing her husband's face. She ruffled her hair with her hands and said, "Nuannuan is right. I have to go discuss this with your uncle." As she spoke, she walked out with her bag. She didn't notice that she stepped on an apple and her foot slipped. Before she could react, she fell to the ground with a thud and lay there for a long time, unable to get up.
Wen Nuan and Wen Ming were frightened when they saw this and quickly ran over to help her. Wen Nuan looked around with a guilty look in her eyes. If her mother knew that she was the one who swept these fruits to the ground, she would beat her to death.
But Xu Like didn't have time to argue with her daughter now. She cried out for a long time and finally got up from the ground, holding her waist. She glared at her daughter and said, "I'll deal with you when I get back!" Then she hurriedly dragged her husband out of the house.
The couple did not come back until evening. Apparently they had come up with a plan, and now both of them looked relaxed.
As soon as Xu Li returned to her parents' home, she told her eldest brother about her nephew's return. He laughed at her, saying it was just a child who had frightened them so much. It wasn't like he had grown up to be an adult before returning. It wasn't easy to deal with a child. If they could abandon him once, they could abandon him a second time.
Xu Jun asked Xu Li where she had seen the child. Xu Li said embarrassedly that she had rushed over before he could ask. Xu Jun scolded her again: "It's just a small matter, why are you so panicked? I'm not asking you to kill or set fire to anything. We were all worried when the child got lost because he didn't know any better. Now that he has come back on his own, isn't that a good thing?"
Although he said so, everyone could hear the ruthlessness in his tone, and it was obvious that he had no good intentions.
The three of them discussed it and decided to strike first. They would go find Wen Le first. Then they would insist that Wen Le had run away out of anger, leaving him with no way to defend himself.
Most people who don't know the truth would not believe what a ten-year-old child said. What's more, Wen Ming and his wife treated him very well during the six months they raised him. They neither beat him nor scolded him, and the neighbors on both sides could testify to this.
Xu Li was so anxious to send Wen Le away because of her brother's instigation. He said that when the boy came of age, he would definitely take back the family property. At that time, everything they had now would be returned, and they would have to go back to their previous hard life. Who would want to go back to the hard life they had before after living a good life?
Once people are blinded by profit, they can do anything. Moreover, people who are greedy to begin with will never feel satisfied no matter how much benefit they get.
After receiving the instructions, Wen Ming and Xu Li packed up and booked tickets to the Pentagram. Fein Star was neither far nor near from the Pentagram, and the round trip would take half a month.
Pentagram is a relatively prosperous planet and a famous educational planet with many famous schools. Therefore, there is a spaceship from Finn Star to Pentagram every day.
Wen Ming and his wife were lucky enough to have bought tickets for the ferry that day, so they boarded without a second thought. Xu Jun was also traveling with them. He didn't believe the couple's intelligence. Their greed wasn't matched by their intelligence, and he was worried they might do something bad.
Wen Le, who was far away in the Pentagram, had no idea that he was being watched. He was still happily counting money with his friends. Yes, counting money.
Earned credits were just numbers in their accounts, and no one had any concrete concept of them. To commemorate her success, Xu Dongdong converted all her earnings from selling potions into physical banknotes, and surprisingly, they had a thick stack. Back in the dorm that night, the four of them couldn't help but gather together to count the money. After counting, Xu Dongdong concluded, "Now I finally understand why so many people on Earth said their wish was to count money until their hands cramped. It really makes me feel so happy."
The other three people: "..."
There is something wrong with what you said.
