Fate played another cruel joke on Xu Zhilin. Xiaoxue encountered an accident and was crushed by a falling coffin, leaving her in a vegetative state.
Back then, Xu Zhilin almost committed suicide.
But in the end, he pinned his hopes on the blind fortune teller's nonsense.
The blind fortune teller only wanted to make some money off him, so he used this Nine Stars Destiny Lamp to fool him.
Unexpectedly, Xu Zhilin got stuck on a futile idea, not only believing the fortune teller's nonsense but also escalating this bloody game to murder, thinking that this would make Xiaoxue wake up faster.
He even spent a lot of money to hire a feng shui master to help him find an auspicious burial site.
The serial murder case has finally been solved.
This is truly gratifying!
For seven years, this has remained a source of fear for the people of the provincial capital. Every year at the end of the year, young women dare not go out, fearing that they will become the next victim.
Su Xiaonuan's name appeared on the front page of the newspaper again. She became a celebrity in the provincial capital, and more and more people came to eat there because of her.
Jiuya Restaurant also benefited from the booming business.
Even after the restaurant expanded, there are still long queues for meals every day.
Franchisees are also coming in droves to join.
However, she is a person of principle. She must be sure where the other party's store is located before she will sign a contract with them. Otherwise, she would rather not sign than allow franchisees to engage in malicious competition.
As a result, the franchise slots in the provincial capital are already full.
She posted a notice at the store entrance: The quota for local franchisees is full, and we will no longer accept local franchisees.
...
Jiang Yi was dragged by his parents to apologize to Mo Xi.
The incident was broadcast on television, and Jiang Yi couldn't hide it anymore. After returning home from the hospital, he was severely scolded by his parents.
Jiang Yi, who was peering out of the ward, was kicked into the ward by his father.
"Jiang Yi, what are you doing here?" Mo Xi looked at him coldly, she never had a good attitude towards this person.
Jiang Yi had a bitter face. If his father hadn't kicked him in, he wouldn't have wanted to see this woman.
Every time I run into Xiao Moxi, nothing good ever happens.
Other women would fawn over Jiang Yi whenever they saw him, but Xiao Moxi would scold him whenever she saw him.
Jiang's mother's voice rang out. "Moxi, Jiang Yi is here to apologize to you."
"He came to apologize?" Mo Xi didn't believe it at all. This guy was always talking about taking his sister-in-law away. "I think he came to take her away, right? It's a pity that my sister-in-law doesn't like a man like you. She and my brother have a good relationship. You should give up on that idea."
Jiang's father carried his hands full of nutritional supplements. "Moxi, don't worry, Jiang Yi wouldn't dare to have such thoughts. If he does, I'll break his legs without you and your brother even having to lift a finger."
After saying that, he placed the nutritional supplements on the bedside table.
Jiang's mother sat down next to Moxi on the edge of the bed, holding Moxi's hand and looking at her lovingly. "Moxi, Auntie apologizes to you on behalf of Jiang Yi. That brat is ignorant and made you angry. If he ever dares to have such thoughts again, you can beat him to death, even if he loses an arm or a leg."
“Auntie, it’s all just talk to Uncle. Jiang Yi needs to realize his mistakes himself.” Mo Xi pointed at Jiang Yi. “He wants to steal her away, but he needs to have the ability. What’s the use of a man who relies on his family background, no matter how good-looking he is? Humph, look at my brother. He’s expanded the Warmth brand mattress business all over the country. If I were his sister-in-law, I would also choose a man as outstanding as my brother.”
After learning that her brother was the owner of Warm Brand Mattresses, Moxi spoke with more confidence.
"Your brother is the owner of Warm Brand Mattress?" All three exclaimed in surprise.
This mattress is advertised on TV every day; you can see it as soon as you turn on the TV. How could they not know?
But they really didn't believe that Xiao Moran was the boss.
That's simply impossible!
Seeing their disbelieving looks, Mo Xi said smugly, "You scared me, didn't you? This is what you call a hidden master. My brother is now a real big boss. Before, when my brother had nothing, you couldn't compete with him. Now, do you think you, Jiang Yi, can compete with him?"
"Are you out of your mind?" Jiang Yicai didn't believe her. "Moxi, I think you should see a psychiatrist. After all, you've been through a life-or-death ordeal and almost had your innocence ruined by a pervert. It's normal for you to be so scared that you'll have some mental problems."
"You're the one who's not right in the head." Mo Xi grabbed the pillow next to her and threw it at Jiang Yi.
“Yes, he’s not right in the head.” Jiang’s mother grabbed another pillow and threw it at her son. “Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done something so shameful. No matter how good Xiaonuan was, that’s all in the past. She’s a mother now. If you still want to pester her, it’s no wonder you’ll get beaten up.”
“Moxi, Uncle Jiang also supports you. If he dares to harass Xiaonuan again, you all have to beat him to death. It’s not a pity to kill someone like that.” Father Jiang glared at his son with disappointment.
"Dad, Mom, I'm your biological son! Why are you both siding with this wild girl?" Jiang Yi hugged two pillows, feeling extremely aggrieved. "You didn't see how she grabbed and hit me. I'm the one who suffered the most, both physically and mentally. Why are you all siding with outsiders?"
"You deserve it!" the couple said in unison.
Seeing that Jiang Yi's parents were on her side, Mo Xi's hatred subsided. She simply reminded Jiang Yi again, "My brother and sister-in-law are absolutely in love. My sister-in-law didn't want to sleep on straw, so my brother made her a mattress. Unexpectedly, this mattress became a great way for my brother to make a fortune. The mattress is called Warmth Mattress, and my sister-in-law is called Xiao Nuan. See how touching that sounds?"
Xiao Moran went to handle her discharge procedures. Hearing his sister's long-winded speech outside the door, he came in and was about to scold her when he saw Jiang Yi and his parents. He immediately fell silent and stared blankly at these uninvited guests.
Xiao Moran didn't know Jiang Yi's parents, but he guessed that Jiang Yi's appearance was a result of inheriting the best features of his parents.
"Brother, are the discharge papers done?" Mo Xi got up from the bed. "Everything's packed, can we go back now?"
"You must be Xiao Moran?" Jiang's father's radar-like eyes scanned the man from head to toe and back again, nodding repeatedly, and he said with great satisfaction. "Xiao Nuan made the right choice marrying you. You really have a manly demeanor. No wonder that old man Su Ming always put on airs in front of me. It turns out it's all thanks to you, his son-in-law. He said you were a soldier and have the same demeanor as him when he was young. The old man wasn't exaggerating at all; you truly live up to his reputation."
Xiao Moran was a little embarrassed by the praise. "Uncle Jiang, you flatter me. I'm just a rough man. We country folk don't have any connections, but I will try my best to give Xiao Nuan and her family a good life."
"That's ambitious!" Jiang's mother also gave him a thumbs up. "Auntie has high hopes for you. Now I can rest assured. There were rumors that Xiao Nuan married a bad man. I was heartbroken during that time. Xiao Nuan is a child I watched grow up. Even if she doesn't have the fate to be my daughter-in-law, I still hope she can live a happy life."
