Mo Yuwan wasn’t surprised at all by his behavior. After all, when he had money, he was already coveting their house—now that he was broke, it was even worse.
But he probably hadn’t realized yet that his money had been scammed away; he likely just thought she’d taken it for some investment.
She got up, left her room, and saw her mother sitting on the sofa, looking at the door in terror, clearly anxious.
She walked over and gently patted her mother’s shoulder.
“Mom, it’s okay.”
Seeing her daughter’s face, Mo Siying’s panic eased a little.
But the next second, her heart leapt back into her throat.
“What are you doing?”
Mo Yuwan was weighing a kitchen knife in her hand, looking puzzled at her mother’s question.
“Teaching him how to knock properly, of course.”
Without paying attention to the fear in her mother’s eyes, she pulled open the door. The moment she saw his face, she brought the knife down!
“Holy—!”
The man barely had time to react before a gleaming kitchen knife came swinging at him. He jumped back in terror, and even the two men behind him were startled, instinctively stepping back.
Mo Yuwan slammed the knife into the doorframe right next to Ye Gaoyuan’s head.
At that moment, she was wearing cute pink bunny pajamas, the very picture of innocence and harmlessness, but her face wore a chilling smile, and the sharp knife in her hand made her look utterly unhinged.
The three men outside looked like they’d seen a ghost.
Mo Yuwan ignored the other two, her gaze fixed on her father.
“I remember telling you—my name is Mo Yuwan.”
Ye Gaoyuan was so scared he couldn’t speak, staring at the knife by his head. After a long moment, he finally found his voice, forcing himself to act tough.
“What are you doing? This is a law-abiding society! Are you trying to kill your own father?”
“Heh…”
Mo Yuwan let out a cheerful laugh, then pressed the knife to his exposed neck.
“Yeah, law-abiding society.”
“Wanna see if I’ll really do it?”
Her smile was still chilling.
She tightened her grip, and soon a thin line of blood appeared on his neck.
Feeling the pain, Ye Gaoyuan truly panicked.
The two men who’d come with him didn’t dare stick around. They turned and ran, cursing as they went.
“Are you nuts? You said they were just two weak women? If you wanna die, do it yourself!”
They were greedy, sure, but not suicidal. That girl was clearly serious.
They’d seen that look in the eyes of real killers before—it wasn’t an act.
And she’d probably done it before.
Mo Yuwan didn’t stop them. After all, if they tried to call the police, they’d be the first suspects. Who’d dare report this?
Besides, even if the police came, who knew who’d end up in trouble.
She looked at her father, her eyes icy.
“Get lost. You’d better hide well. Next time I see you, I might not hold back.”
Her voice was cold—not just a warning, but the truth.
Right now, with society still intact, she didn’t want to cause trouble.
But next time, it would be the apocalypse.
She’d make sure to deal with him then.
She withdrew the knife and kicked him down the stairs, then shut the door without hesitation.
Inside, Mo Siying looked at her daughter with a complicated expression.
She knew her daughter had changed after surviving the apocalypse, but this was the first time she’d seen her so violent—almost unhinged.
Mo Yuwan calmly rinsed the knife under the tap, wiped it dry, and put it back in the kitchen.
She turned to her mother, smiling sweetly as ever.
“It’s fine now, Mom.”
Just then, her phone rang. She glanced at it.
[Huaguo Bank] Your account 3452 received a UnionPay deposit of 5,000,000 yuan at 12:51 on September 12.
A message from Gu Yongnian followed.
[The money’s been handled. You can use it freely—it can’t be traced.]
Mo Yuwan deleted the message after reading it.
Then, a system notification sounded in her mind.
[Ding~ Host has completed the “Settle Your Grudges” mission ahead of schedule! 10 million bonus awarded!]
[A total of 110 million yuan will be credited to your account and properly processed. Please use it with confidence!]
[Outstanding mission completion! System space upgraded to 300 square meters!]
[Detected slow stockpiling progress. New mission: stockpile 20 million yuan worth of supplies within one day!]
[Upon completion, system space will expand to 2,000 square meters!]
[If not completed, space will shrink to 100 square meters!]
[Mission issued.]
The next second, another deposit notification arrived.
The annoyance she’d felt upon waking up to that wretched man faded away. The mission deadline was tight, but the reward was too tempting—she wasn’t nervous, just excited for the next challenge.
She wanted to check her system space, but it was still shrouded in black mist.
She didn’t mind, and cheerfully handed her phone to her mother.
“Mom, we’re rich.”
When Mo Siying saw the balance, her earlier complicated feelings were instantly replaced by shock. Her eyes widened, and she was about to say something.
Seeing her mother’s expression, Mo Yuwan quickly explained.
“Don’t worry, Mom. It’s all legal. Just trust me.”
“The five million is Ye Gaoyuan’s money.”
“The 110 million… you can think of it as heaven’s compensation for how miserable I was in my last life.”
Hearing this, Mo Siying didn’t say anything more. After all, with the apocalypse coming, money only mattered for now.
Thanks to Yongnian for his little “gift”~
