Five-Million Guaranteed Magic Cabin Check-In~~
Endless water flooded her nose and mouth, suffocating and despairing. Ning Lu struggled desperately, but her strength slowly faded, and she began sinking uncontrollably.
In agony, she murmured, “Mom… please, don’t die…”
On the riverbank, her uncle’s family led the villagers in hurling insults.
“A shameless mother and daughter! Ning Lu isn’t even my second brother’s child! My brother died in service—what right do they have to occupy his house?!”
“Ning Lu’s mother attacked my daughter and fell into the river herself! Ning Lu jumped in on her own too. It has nothing to do with us!”
“I, Ning Laoda, am making this clear today—anyone who dares save that cheating woman who cuckolded my brother, or that bastard child, will be my enemy!”
…
Ning Lu tried to open her eyes and save her mother, but she couldn’t even save herself.
Her tears mixed with the river water, turning into endless coldness.
As her consciousness gradually faded, Ning Lu thought she had died.
Then she saw countless strange scenes.
Not long ago, her father had been killed while serving in the military. As soon as the family received the news, her eldest uncle found excuses to seize their farmland.
Her mother, Yan Bingqin, was devastated by the loss of her husband and became bedridden.
At that very time, Ning Lu discovered that her fiancé, Lin Anguo, was having an affair with her cousin Ning Yue. Before she could report them to her uncle, her uncle’s family came to their door first.
Her uncle declared that Ning Lu was not Ning Lao Er’s daughter at all, but a bastard born when Yan Bingqin had an affair while her husband was away in the army.
Even worse, Ning Lu’s fiancé, Lin Anguo, personally stepped forward to testify, claiming Ning Lu had once told him this secret herself.
Everyone in the village knew how devoted Ning Lu was to Lin Anguo.
No one doubted his words.
Ning Laoda’s family wanted to drive Yan Bingqin and Ning Lu out of the village.
Naturally, Ning Lao Er’s house would also be reclaimed by the eldest branch of the family.
Yan Bingqin refused. Despite her illness, she argued with Ning Laoda’s family. During the struggle over Ning Lao Er’s urn, she accidentally fell into the river.
Ning Lu immediately jumped in to save her mother.
Unfortunately, neither of them could swim well, and both were overweight.
They drowned.
Their bodies were taken away by Ning Laoda and thrown into a ravine to be eaten by wild wolves.
Not long afterward, Lin Anguo married Ning Yue. Using the money they had looted from Ning Lu and her mother, they pursued education, started businesses, and lived a prosperous life.
Later, they even met influential figures in the military district and moved there to seek opportunities.
Ning Laoda’s family rose step by step from poor villagers to a wealthy and powerful family in the capital.
As for Ning Lu and her mother, they died without a trace—not even a grave remained.
The overwhelming hatred and injustice drove Ning Lu mad with rage.
At that moment, she felt something rush up from beneath the water and surround her.
A group of voices began discussing noisily around her.
“Another woman who was harmed and ended up in the river!”
“No, there are two! Why do women always end up drinking poison, hanging themselves, or jumping into rivers? Is there really no way for women to survive in this world?”
“Sisters, one by one, do you think people will regret it when you die? No! Those rotten people will continue living just fine! And we’ll only become ghosts trapped underwater, drowning over and over again! Our deaths are nothing but a joke! Better to live miserably than die!”
“Girl, wake up! Wake up! Don’t die! We’ll help you. Live well and destroy those scumbags!”
“That’s right! Sisters, let’s save this girl and let her avenge us!”
…
Ning Lu vaguely heard the water ghosts mention their names.
Then she slowly opened her eyes and floated to the surface.
On the shore, Ning Yue was startled.
“Anguo, sh-she’s still not dead?!”
Lin Anguo was nervous too. Seeing Ning Lu’s chubby body floating up again, he felt a trace of pity—but even more disgust.
Ning Lu had once been beautiful enough to be called the village beauty.
But later, she and her mother, Yan Bingqin, kept gaining weight until together they weighed more than a pig.
The more he looked at Ning Lu, the more annoyed he became. So when Ning Yue tempted him, he couldn’t resist starting an affair with her.
Still, he didn’t want to be the villain. He would never be the one to propose breaking off the engagement.
So when Ning Laoda’s family wanted to drive Ning Lu and her mother away and even let them die, he did nothing to stop it.
Seeing the reluctance in Lin Anguo’s eyes, Ning Yue felt a surge of jealousy.
Her cousin had always been prettier than her.
She had finally managed to turn Ning Lu into a fat pig, yet people still said that despite her weight, Ning Lu’s face and eyes remained beautiful.
Even Lin Anguo had never brought up breaking off the engagement.
Remembering how Lin Anguo panted over her body, Ning Yue’s hatred intensified.
Picking up a long pole, she shouted, “Cousin! Hold on tight, I’m coming to save you!”
The moment Ning Lu grabbed the pole, she felt Ning Yue viciously shoving it downward, trying to force her back under the water.
This wasn’t a rescue.
Ning Yue wanted her dead.
How could someone be so shameless and vicious?
She stole someone else’s fiancé and still wanted to kill them!
With a sudden burst of strength, Ning Lu yanked hard on the pole.
Ning Yue fell into the river with a splash.
This time, Ning Laoda’s entire family—and even the onlookers—jumped into the river to save Ning Yue.
Even Lin Anguo swam straight toward Ning Yue…
Without sparing Ning Lu a single glance.
So he could swim after all…
A sharp pain pierced Ning Lu’s heart.
Grabbing the pole, she hurried to rescue Yan Bingqin.
Her mother was already motionless.
Trembling, Ning Lu relied on the mysterious strength lent by the water ghosts and dragged the equally heavy Yan Bingqin onto the shore.
Then she immediately began chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
After a long struggle, Yan Bingqin finally coughed up several mouthfuls of water and slowly regained consciousness.
Meanwhile, Ning Yue had also been rescued. Since she had only swallowed a little water, she was fine, but she cried loudly while clinging to Lin Anguo.
“Ning Lu tried to kill me! She tried to kill me!”
Her aunt, Wei Xiaomei, rolled up her sleeves and charged at Ning Lu.
Ning Lu stood up, grabbed Wei Xiaomei by the collar with one hand, lifted her into the air, and hurled her away.
Bang!
Wei Xiaomei felt as if every bone in her body had shattered.
“Ow! Ning Lu, you shameless fat pig, you little bastard—”
With her 180-pound frame, Ning Lu possessed tremendous strength.
Her face darkened as she stepped forward.
Her thick palm slammed straight across Wei Xiaomei’s mouth.
“I don’t hit people because I have manners. But if I hit you, it means you deserve it. Say one more insulting word and I’ll knock out all your teeth!”
Wei Xiaomei let out a shriek as blood filled her mouth.
Ning Laoda and his son rushed forward to teach Ning Lu a lesson.
Ning Lu grabbed one in each hand, spun around, and flung them both through the air.
They landed in the river in perfect parabolic arcs.
The villagers were dumbfounded.
This… this…
Ning Lao Er’s daughter was that strong?
No wonder she had put on so much weight!
Ning Yue burst into tears.
“Brother Anguo, look! Cousin has gone crazy! She actually hit my parents!”
Lin Anguo sprang to his feet, glaring angrily at Ning Lu.
“Ning Lu! Stop this right now!
“Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough? You’re already covered in fat, your mother cheated on your father, nobody even knows who your real father is, and your uncle’s family is only trying to help you. How can you resort to violence—”
Ning Lu looked at him coldly.
What a scumbag. He must be enjoying playing the righteous hero.
She strode forward and grabbed his shoulder.
Lin Anguo glared at her in disgust.
“Let go of me! Ning Lu, I will never marry someone as morally corrupt as you! I’m breaking off the engagement!”
Joy instantly appeared on Ning Yue’s face.
But in the next second, Ning Lu grabbed Ning Yue’s clothes as well.
Rip!
With one violent motion, she tore open both Ning Yue’s and Lin Anguo’s collars.
The crowd instantly erupted in shocked cries.
Both of their necks were covered with dense, unmistakable love bites.
“My goodness!”
“What happened to Ning Yue’s and Lin Anguo’s necks?”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk… Young people these days sure know how to have fun!”
