Chapter 215 To be forgiven, bring ten thousand crystal cores.
"ah!"
The three people's screams were quickly swallowed up by the raging fire.
But those present who witnessed this horrific scene were invariably terrified.
Soon, screams erupted, disturbing nearby residents.
Once the oil from the Molotov cocktail gets on your body, it's impossible to shake it off.
Soon, the three were burned alive and turned into charcoal, lying eerily outside the wall. People hiding in the shadows but not far away could even smell the odor and hear the crackling sound.
For a moment, everyone was quite frightened and dared not make any further moves, including Shen Jiaojiao and the other two.
Mrs. Shen was already trembling with fear, and her legs went limp and she could only barely stay on the ground with Shen Shiqiu's support.
Shen Jiaojiao was also so frightened that her face turned deathly pale, her lips trembled, and she lost all color in her skin.
The bottle she was holding was also filled with oil.
She discussed it with Shen Shiqiu for an entire afternoon, and their idea was to throw such a dangerous object into Lin Muyan's yard.
If they had acted earlier than those three, the three charred corpses lying there would have been those three.
Shen Shiqiu was covered in cold sweat. He knew that no one would dare to try it again tonight, so he mustered his last bit of strength and arranged for his wife and daughter to return home.
As soon as they got home, the three of them vomited violently, and their limbs went limp.
Meanwhile, the Rong family members who were secretly observing from the window were not in much better shape.
Old Mrs. Rong was so frightened that she rolled her eyes and fainted.
The Rong family was immediately thrown into chaos, except for Rong Muchen, who did not go to take care of his grandmother, but stood by the window to continue observing the situation of the Lin family.
He had seen it clearly; the three Molotov cocktails were about to go over the wall and smash in, but they were blocked by something halfway and bounced back quickly.
The mansion that Lin Muyan renovated is clearly not simple, which further proves that she must have a lot of resources and that the mansion must have very complete refrigeration and storage equipment.
Thinking about this, Rong Muchen felt even more strongly that he couldn't let go of Lin Muyan.

Soon, the little people hiding in the shadows quietly left, and they could only keep quiet about the terrifying scene they had witnessed that night, so as not to cause trouble for themselves.
Lin Muyan took a nap and arrived outside the safe house before dawn, where she used her fire to completely destroy the three charred corpses.
She washed away the marks on the ground with her water-based abilities before leaving, satisfied.
The next morning, more people came to exchange supplies, and Lin Muyan opened the window for them to exchange as usual.
The traces on the ground were cleaned up, but those who had been disturbed last night and had seen a few scenes were still shaken and watched Lin Muyan from a distance.
They weren't sure if what they saw last night was real, but in any case, the Lin family was really too strange. Many people had already decided in their hearts that they must not offend the Lin family or Lin Muyan.
Around noon, the official distribution team reappeared, and those who had been queuing to exchange for supplies dispersed and headed to the distribution point.
This time, Lin Muyan didn't let her family collect the supplies. Since she had started a business exchanging supplies, she was indirectly telling others that she didn't lack supplies.
If the Lin family were to collect supplies at this time, they would inevitably be criticized.
However, the supplies that the Lin family was entitled to were still delivered to them.
The person who collected the supplies on behalf of the Lin family was Rong Muchen.
"Mu Yan, I've collected the supplies for your family this time. Come out and get them."
Rong Muchen stood at the door of Lin Muyan's house with a shameless grin, carrying the supplies he had received.
He was secretly pleased with himself, thinking that as long as he was attentive to Lin Muyan and showed great concern for the Lin family, he would eventually win them over.
Even though he had broken up with Lin Muyan before, he believed that as long as he was sincere enough and endured for a while, he would definitely be able to win back Lin Muyan's heart.
Lin Muyan was at home with her father, dividing up the crystal cores they had exchanged over the past two days.
She didn't take out the fire and water elemental crystal cores, but only the neutral elemental crystal cores, letting her father take about thirty of them.
Hearing Rong Muchen's shouts outside, Lin Muyan frowned.
"Why is he so persistent, like a headless fly that you can't shoo him away?" Lin Xiaonuan pouted, annoyed by the toad clinging to her sister.
Ever since meeting Fu Sinian and Xiao Li, Lin Xiaonuan had decided that her future brother-in-law must meet their standards; she couldn't lower her standards any further.
Compared to those two, Rong Muchen is far inferior, yet he remains oblivious and shamelessly continues to fawn over them.
Lin Xiao was also furious.
"I can't take it anymore. I'm going to beat him up so badly that he'll never dare to come back again."
Lin Muyan thought for a moment, then stopped her elder brother and stood up, saying:
"I'll take care of him. It's fine. He's a coward, so he's easy to deal with."
Rong Muchen stood nervously by the wall waiting for Lin Muyan. When he saw her come out, he immediately went to greet her happily.
"Mu Yan, you really did come out to see me after all. I've collected the supplies for your family, here you go."
Lin Muyan said indifferently:
"No need, you can take it."
Upon hearing this, Rong Muchen thought that Lin Muyan was worried that his family didn't have enough money and had specially saved it for him, which made him very excited.
Lin Muyan, however, didn't want to waste any more words on him. She had already figured out how to get rid of him, so she said:
"Didn't you want my forgiveness? Here's what we'll do: give me ten thousand crystal cores, and I'll forgive you."
[Ten thousand! This clearly shows she won't forgive him, but I doubt Rong Muchen will understand.]
Ten thousand crystal cores might not be much to a powerful Awakened, but Rong Muchen is too weak; he can't handle that.
[I have a plan. I'd venture a guess: Lin Muyan might be trying to use someone else to do her dirty work. She probably doesn't want to get rid of Rong Muchen, this persistent nuisance, herself, so she's choosing this method.]
In the apocalypse, those who live a life of petty scheming, cowardly hiding at home and eating swill, might outlive even more than awakened individuals fighting against mutated beasts and zombies outside. Only by exposing Rong Muchen to the dangers of the outside world sooner can he die sooner.
Lin Muyan is indeed ruthless...
Lin Muyan: ...
She didn't intend to use someone else to do her dirty work; she just wanted to make Rong Muchen back down.
Even if he's still not giving up, at least he can bring her a crystal core.
This man dared to treat her that way before, stirring up trouble between the Shen family and her, so she dared to make this seemingly outrageous and excessive request.
"What? You don't want to?"
Lin Muyan stared at Rong Muchen with a playful expression.
At this moment, Rong Muchen was naturally extremely unwilling.
He had already started cursing in his heart.
Damn you, Lin Muyan, who do you think you are, making me search for ten thousand crystal cores before I can be forgiven!
By saying that, isn't she basically sending him to his death?
This woman was indeed as Shen Jiaojiao said—vicious-hearted and no good!
If he hadn't been eyeing her connections and resources, he definitely wouldn't have gone to such lengths to become her lapdog!
