Give Zuo Ling money? How could she swallow this insult? "Why give her money? If that doesn't work, just kidnap her and take her back."
The aged voice held a hint of anger:
"Tie someone up? Is the Ding family a criminal gang? They kidnap people over such a small matter. Where's their brain? What if she awakens superpowers? Will the people she kidnaps be loyal to the Ding family?! Use your brain. If you don't know how to do things, ask Nansheng more questions."
Ding Jiaojiao glanced sideways at Pei Nansheng, who was calmly sipping tea beside her, and her anger intensified. She forced herself to ask, "How much money did you give her?"
The other party said a number, and then the call ended abruptly.
Ding Jiaojiao was about to smash the cup again, but Pei Nansheng stopped her:
"The cup isn't valuable, but the labor is. The waiter has already cleaned it for you once. If you criticize others for being rude, you should also pay attention to your own image."
"you……"
Ding Jiaojiao was furious.
Pei Nansheng ignored her and walked away.
Ding Jiaojiao picked up the cup intending to throw it at Pei Nansheng, but stopped halfway and angrily slammed the cup back onto the table.
An hour later, Zuo Ling received a text message from Ding Jiaojiao containing only two words: 'account'. Zuo Ling could feel Ding Jiaojiao's anger even through the screen.
Zuo Ling was not surprised at all by Ding Jiaojiao's compromise.
A hermit from the Ding family, who possessed prophetic abilities, foresaw an impending disaster.
However, they could not predict what kind of disaster it would be or when it would strike; they only knew that it was an unprecedented catastrophe.
The Ding family has used up all their accumulated resources, accumulated over nearly a thousand years, to awaken supernatural abilities in their descendants.
There were successes, but also disappointments.
When disaster strikes, strength and resources complement each other.
While spatial ability users are not the most powerful, they are the most indispensable. Whether the Ding family possesses spatial abilities will determine the family's success or failure.
Unfortunately, no one with spatial abilities has appeared in the Ding family to date.
Without spatial abilities, transportation, storage, and theft would face enormous risks and inconveniences.
Zuo Ling was eager to know how the Ding family would compete with the other seven hermit families in this life without her spatial abilities.
After the account details, Zuo Ling wrote: Think carefully before sending money. You might mistake me for someone else. If I spend the money, I might not be able to pay it back.
Five minutes later, a text message arrived: A large remittance of 30 million yuan was transferred to your card 6222**** at 15:45 on September 8, 2030. Please check.
Immediately afterward, Ding Jiaojiao called.
"Hey, Zuo Ling, the money has been transferred to your account. Grandpa said you should come home with me. You're a descendant of the Ding family, and you have to acknowledge your ancestors."
Ding Jiaojiao's voice showed no sign of resentment, as if the unpleasantness from earlier had never occurred.
"Maybe after the New Year, I can't get away right now."
After the New Year, the apocalypse arrived. Planes and trains stopped running, the internet was cut off, and the Ding family was left in a bind.
"After the New Year?"
Ding Jiaojiao raised her voice, "No, Grandpa is waiting. How can you, a junior, make Grandpa wait?"
"How about I give you the money back and we don't go?"
Whoever is anxious knows, but she's not in a hurry.
"you……"
Ding Jiaojiao was about to lose her temper again, but she held back:
"Don't push your luck."
"How am I pushing my luck? I'm not saying I won't go after the New Year. Is the Ding family's house on fire or something? Do they need me to put out the fire?"
Zuo Ling stopped indulging her: "That's enough, I'm tired."
A sharp, piercing click.
"You hung up on me again!" Ding Jiaojiao was so angry she wanted to smash the wall.
