Chapter 100: You're Being Biased This Way!
I Farm In The Apocalypse
After being reborn, Jing Shu had always been curious about the enormous grudge that made Su Mei Mei hate them so deeply. The problem was that Jing’s mother had been wholeheartedly good to Su Mei Mei. It turned out they weren’t really sisters at all. Su Mei Mei had known from a young age that she was adopted, which made her harbor deep hatred for this family.
When Jing Shu finished speaking, Su Mei Mei also looked at Su Guosheng with intense hatred. “Yes, no matter what, I’ll always say you’re the one who abandoned me. You have a wife and children over there, so you’re making me pretend to be part of your family just to shake me off. Hahaha…”
“Mei Mei, don’t listen to her nonsense. Didn’t I risk everything to come see you this time? Oh, well, it’s for the best. You’ve been separated for so many years; it’s time to come home. Bring Zhang Hanhan and come back with me to our hometown. We have energy there—no shortage of electricity, water, or food,” Su Guosheng gently patted SuMei Mei. Zhang Hanhan snuggled up to her mother, her eyes lighting up at the mention of water and electricity.
Su Mei Mei let out a cold laugh. “Return? No, why should I go back and stay with Zhang Zhongyong and that woman? Will there even be a place for me if I go back? I never want to live under someone else’s shadow again.”
Zhang Hanhan showed a look of disappointment. Su Guosheng quietly let out a sigh of relief. His risky move had paid off. Otherwise, how would he have settled the domineering aunt on that side?
Seeing that the elderly man had smoothly defused the attempt to sow discord, Jing Shu felt a murderous intent flicker in her eyes.
Originally, Jing Shu thought Su Mei Mei was her mother’s biological sister. Killing her would leave a void in her mother’s heart, as the deceased always leave a lasting impression and longing. The mere thought of someone like Su Mei Mei holding a place in her mother’s heart made Jing Shu feel sickened.
Another reason was that Su Mei Mei lacked any influential connections.
Killing her would be as simple as squashing an ant—she was within Jing Shu’s control. For enemies like this, Jing Shu would choose to let them fully experience the apocalypse, perhaps adding some extra torment.
However, in this life, Su Mei Mei suddenly had a seemingly powerful biological father who was using his connections to offer her promotions and raises. Su Mei Mei felt out of control, and with so many uncertain factors, it was best to eliminate her before she could cause any more trouble.
A life-and-death grudge must be avenged! The first step was to clearly define boundaries.
“Mom, Uncle, did you hear that? So that’s what she’s been thinking about us all along. This second uncle isn’t a good person either. He abandoned his own child for his career. Now he’s raising her to acknowledge her as his child. As for Su Mei Mei, she’s been hating you since childhood and can’t be relatives with someone like this.”
Jing’s mother forcefully tried to calm herself, “When they conspired to deceive me, I never recognized her as a sister. Now that the truth is out, she never treated us like family, not even acknowledging our parental debts. We won’t recognize such ungrateful people in our Su family either!”
“Exactly, it’s like raising an ungrateful wolf! Dad and Mom really lost their minds. When Dad was seriously ill, you’d rather not treat him and instead demanded tuition fees! Sigh, I won’t say anymore,” Uncle trembled as he pointed at Su Mei Mei, wiping away a tear, “Let’s go. From now on, we’ll keep things separate and have nothing to do with each other!”
Su Mei Mei sat on the ground, crying uncontrollably. “Everyone’s fake and insincere! I hate you all so much!”
Jing’s aunt was still in a daze. Su Long fixated on the garlic sprouts on the balcony, drooling. Hearing that they were leaving, the two of them finally went outside.
Jing Shu grabbed the braised eggs, holding a jar of pickles with one hand and sneered, “Giving you these things is like feeding dogs—complete waste.”
Su Mei Mei angrily pointed at Jing Shu, “It’s all your fault! It’s all because of you that things turned out this way!”
As Jing Shu took the things she had brought and took them back, her aunt seemed to acquire a new skill. After hesitating for a moment, she quickly ran back, saying, “Since we’re no longer relatives, I’ll take back the meat you guys think is worthless.” She grabbed the pork and ran, thinking about eating meat that evening with a happy mood.
Once they got back in the car, Su Long watched the braised eggs and hungrily swallowed his saliva. This time, he finally got to eat the braised eggs he had been craving. Everyone ate some eggs to fill their stomachs, and Su Long ate four in one go.
“Come sit with me,” Uncle comforted Jing’s mother. No one could instantly accept it. Originally, after their parents passed away, there were only three siblings left, and now only one remained.
“Alright.”
The car headed towards Uncle’s house in Xishan. Jing’s aunt, holding the pork, was really conflicted. Should she serve the pork to them that evening? But she felt too reluctant.
In reality, her aunt’s conflict was short-lived because halfway through the trip, an unexpected situation occurred. Jing Shu’s family left her aunt’s family stranded in the scorching 52°C heat, making her aunt’s family walk several kilometers, almost collapsing before reaching their home. After all, there were no black cars, taxis, or buses available at that time.
“The meat is safe, but this temperature will probably spoil it,” Aunt sighed. It was better to have the meat in the car with air conditioning, quick and safe.
“Alright, Mom, didn’t you see how changed Jing Shu’s face is? I feel like the car’s temperature has dropped a few degrees. Jing Shu is terrifying; I don’t know what’s going on with her.”
“Jing Shu, that girl is getting harder to understand.”
…
“Heard that a small villa can kill over a hundred people at Biri, don’t you really know why? Hmm? But according to the information I got, you’re basically relatives of the villa, right?”
“There are 129 households in your community, and only Jing Shu’s family lives in the villa. The other 129 households have only one resident named Jing Shanhe. Who are you? Let me guess, your mother is named Jing Lai, and the household head is Jing Shanhe, so he’s your grandfather?”
“So, what’s the relationship between the villa’s head, Jing Shu, and you? How many people are in the villa? Are there any special forces? The people from Biri told me they heard several gunshots, and Biri’s boss has a gun. So does the villa’s owner have a gun too? But it’s impossible to kill over a hundred people, right? The only explanation is powerful traps? Hmm? You really know nothing?”
“Strange, with something like that happening that day, none of the other residents in your community could provide any meaningful clues. Is it really that mysterious?”
The man exhaled, his bangs fluttering in the wind. His sharp, angular profile looked rather helpless as he took out a piece of red candle. “I heard that women care about their appearance. What kind are you?”
Wu Youai raised her face, smiling brightly, “Me? I don’t care about that.”
“Oh? So you’re afraid of pain? Perfect, I also don’t like ruining people’s appearances. I’m better at torturing people, making them feel unbearable pain. Our She Tian group specializes in this. Do you know Yang Yang from the Armed Police Brigade? He likes torturing people without leaving scars. I’m the opposite.”
