Zhang Ke was delighted when he saw them. "Are you three the masters of Jieyou Office?" Mingzhun nodded, and Zhang Ke quickly turned off the music. "I'm relieved that you're here! Shall we start now?"

Although he didn't know what the so-called follow-up problems were, he knew that if they were solved sooner, he could leave this place sooner!

On the other side, Wen Qi Liu Ran took Tan Yingying straight to the airport. The three of them took a taxi and the driver kept looking at them on the way.

The three of them, one covered up tightly, and two dressed like special forces soldiers, looked like the young lady and her bodyguards. The driver was very confused, why did the young lady take a taxi when she went out?

Arriving at the airport, the three of them carried their bags and went straight to the VIP lounge, handed their IDs to the staff and went to check in. Half an hour later, the three of them boarded the plane smoothly.

The journey was peaceful. It was not until the evening of the next afternoon that Wen Qi and Liu Ran, led by Tan Yingying, reached the small village at the foot of the mountain.

Standing on a slightly higher place outside the village, you can overlook the entire small mountain village. Low houses, dilapidated roofs, cows and pigs raised by every household... Tan Yingying looked complicated, "This place is exactly the same as I remembered."

It seemed as if the dozen years she was away were just a dream.

Tan Yingying couldn't believe it. With the rapid development of society, it seemed that this area was the only one that was missed.

Liu Ran also found it strange. "Although this place is remote, it is not to the extent that there are few people. As long as there is communication with the outside world, it is impossible that there will be no changes at all."

Wen Qi said lazily: "I'm afraid it has all turned into fertilizer for the flowers."

Liu Ran nodded in agreement, "It is indeed possible. If the villagers become fertilizer for the flowers, then there is no need to communicate with the outside world. It is not surprising that they have lived like this for more than ten years."

Tan Yingying stared at the village in a daze. Everyone... turned into fertilizer? Her biological parents, and her little brother whom they cherished like a treasure, also turned into fertilizer? "Ha." Tan Yingying suddenly laughed sarcastically, "How ridiculous." They always thought that girls were worthless, but in the end, their fate was exactly the same as hers. In fact, their level as fertilizer might even be lower than hers.

Inexplicably, Tan Yingying felt a strange sense of superiority in her heart. She was obviously a big star with tens of millions of fans, so of course she lived better than them, but she just couldn't help but care!

She thought she had forgotten them all these years, but standing here she realized that she had not forgotten them, she had buried all the deep hatred in her heart.

"Let's go." Wen Qi walked into the village first and reminded: "Wear the amulet, it can save your life at a critical moment."

Tan Yingying subconsciously clenched the amulet on her chest and responded in a low voice.

Liu Ran walked at the back. After all, he was a paying customer, so he still had to provide him with a basic sense of security.

As soon as they entered the village, the three of them attracted a crowd of onlookers. Adults and children all looked at them in surprise, and some even told others that there were outsiders in the village! Tan Yingying frowned slightly, "It wasn't like this before. Although the village was isolated, people would come to buy mountain products at the end of each year, and the villagers would not behave so...strangely."

"I feel like I've turned into a giant panda." Wen Qi sighed, "It's like a panda entering a fellow villager's home."

Liu Ran burst out laughing and suddenly remembered the news he had seen before. It was indeed very funny.

More and more people came out to watch, and Tan Yingying felt a little uncomfortable. She was not disguised now, and she wanted to be recognized, but was also afraid of being recognized. She had a sense of satisfaction as if she had returned home in glory, but because of her childhood experiences, she was somewhat repulsed by everything in the mountain village.

Wen Qi didn't care about other people's looks at all. When she saw cute children, she would even smile and tease them. The children had probably never seen strangers before, so when they were teased, they would hide behind the adults and secretly look at them with their eyes open.

Rubbing his fingers, Wen Qi's eyes flashed a faint light. Even the child had evil spirits in his body. If it was brought from the womb, it would be a bit troublesome.

After walking for less than ten minutes, Wen Qi stopped and said calmly, "We're here."

Tan Yingying looked up and saw that they had indeed arrived at her house. She was so surprised that she wanted to ask Wen Qi how he knew, but then she thought, he is a heavenly master, so of course he has his own way.

This home was almost the same as the day she left, with a brick house with a bark roof, a dilapidated yard, and a woodshed built of wood. She even remembered the lock on the door clearly.

When I pushed the door open, the wooden door creaked. It seemed that the person in the room was startled. The sound of kicking and stomping came from far away and got closer, like someone was wearing slippers.

But when they came out, they found out that he had a bad leg. The young man seemed to have one leg that couldn't bend for some reason, so he could only walk lazily on the ground.

The young man looked at them in confusion, with curiosity and surprise in his eyes, "Who are you?" He glanced around and landed on Tan Yingying's face. The more he looked, the more confused he became, "You... look a bit like my sister."

Tan Yingying was also looking at him. When she left, he was only ten years old, still a child, but now he looked like a man. She looked at his legs, "How did you get hurt? Have you been to the hospital?"

The young man's eyes slowly widened, his face full of shock, "Sister?!"

This scream called out the remaining two people in the room. A man and a woman ran out of the room in panic and saw Tan Yingying at a glance.

Tan Yingying grabbed the woman's hand and asked condescendingly, "How is it my fault? When I disappeared in the mountains, did you look for me, Mom?"

The woman's eyes flickered, and she wanted to say that she had looked for her, but facing Tan Yingying's clear gaze, she couldn't open her mouth. Not only did she not look for her, but she didn't even realize that Tan Yingying hadn't come back the whole night until the next morning when she saw the cold stove and the pots and pans.

Tan Yingying sneered and shook off her hand. "If I wasn't lucky enough to be rescued, I would have died on the mountain."

The man sighed, "Don't blame your mother. Jun'er was young at the time, and your mother focused most of her energy on him. When we found out you were missing, your uncles and I went into the mountains to look for you, but we couldn't find you. It turned out that you were rescued by someone."

The man looked her up and down, "It seems like you are doing well now."

Tan Yingying said expressionlessly, "Yes, thanks to that heavy rain, my fate has completely changed."

The woman recovered and began to instruct Tan Yingying again, "Since you are back, use the money to help your brother get married. If it weren't for you, your brother would have a child now!"

Tan Yingying was sad and annoyed, and asked, "Am I not your biological child? How can you speak so confidently about selling your daughter to get money for your son to marry a wife?"

The woman waved her hands, her voice as loud as a megaphone, "Don't tell me those useless things. Everyone has gone through this, why is it that it's not the same for you? Why are you so precious? Sooner or later, you will get married. It doesn't matter whether you marry early or late!"

Tan Yingying was so angry that her eyes were red. This woman who gave birth to her only believed in her own stubborn ideas and didn't listen to anyone else. She was simply an unreasonable shrew! She didn't want to say a word to them anymore. She turned around and was about to leave, but was grabbed by the woman, "Where else do you want to go? I tell you, if you don't take out the money today, don't even think about going anywhere!" She looked at Wen Qi and Liu Ran again and said harshly, "Don't even think about leaving!"

Wen Qi finally couldn't help but burst out laughing, "What does your Tan family's affairs have to do with us? If you don't leave, can I live in your house?"

Liu Ran also nodded. "It's just right. It's getting dark and we haven't found a place to stay yet. Although this place is dirty and shabby, it can at least block the wind. It's better than sleeping outdoors."

As the two were talking, they were about to walk into the house, but were stopped by the man and the young man on the left and right. The man shouted, "What are you doing? You want to rob a private house!"

Wen Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, "If it's okay for you to rob people, why don't we rob the house?"

The man's face darkened. "That's my daughter. She finally came home after so many years. Of course her mother doesn't want to let her leave."

"Oh?" Wen Qi pointed at herself and Liu Ran, "What about us? Are we your daughters too? No, a family like yours can't afford to support me even if they sell everything they have." She shook the clothes on her body, "See? They're custom-made, and they cost 100,000 each."

The man and the young man were stunned after hearing this. "Your clothes have gold trim? One hundred thousand is enough for me to build a house and make furniture!"

The woman also pulled Tan Yingying over and said, "Stop bragging! There is no such expensive clothes in the world!"

Wen Qi squinted at her and said, "Auntie, you are out of touch with the news. Ask Tan Yingying. In big cities, clothes worth tens of thousands of yuan are everywhere."

The woman subconsciously looked at Tan Yingying, who was a little embarrassed. As a star for so many years, she had indeed bought and worn a lot of expensive dresses, but it was not to the extent that they could be seen everywhere. But she had to cooperate with Wen Qi now, so she picked up her down jacket and said, "36,000."

The woman gasped, then raised her hand and slapped him, "You loser girl!"

Wen Qi snorted coldly, "How about this, we'll stay at the house tonight, and you guys can find a place to stay. When we leave tomorrow, I'll leave you three thousand for accommodation."

Three thousand yuan! That’s as much as their income for half a year! The woman was very excited, but when she thought about how expensive their clothes were, three thousand yuan was too little for a place to stay. She held up a finger and gritted her teeth and said, “At least ten thousand!”

Wen Qi sneered disdainfully, "Okay, ten thousand is ten thousand. You go in and clean up first, and change the bedding to clean ones. If there's anything we're not satisfied with, we'll deduct it from the accommodation fee."

The woman quickly let go of Tan Yingying and went into the house. The man and the young man looked at each other, then followed her in to clean up.

Ten thousand yuan! This money comes so easily.

After everyone left, Liu Ran asked in a low voice: "What exactly do you want to do?" She didn't think that Wen Qi just wanted to show off his wealth.

Tan Yingying also looked at her strangely.

Wen Qi chuckled, "Desire is endless. If the nutrients are not rich enough, how can we catch that flower? The weather is so cold, it's better not to go into the mountains if possible."

Tan Yingying and her family of three who were aroused by greed for money, this bait should be enough, right?
