Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge -
Chapter 33 Dreams_1
Chapter 33: Chapter 33 Dreams_1
Along the uphill path, trampling the ice that had yet to melt on the mountain and facing the cold wind, Shangguan You ran wildly, venting the pain in her heart and her anger. Climbing the steep mountain road, she eventually reached the summit. Shen Cheng, Shen Wanqian, I will take back what you owe me, little by little. She broke off a branch from a tree, forced her Spiritual Energy into it, and launched frenzied attacks against the trees white with snow, feeling out of control for the first time since her rebirth. BANG, BANG, BANG—several loud noises sounded as trees at the mountaintop toppled. The once erect trees could not withstand her full-powered strike, and a large swath of them fell, snowflakes scattering everywhere. Fortunately, this was the summit, and it was near dusk, a considerable distance from the villa. Otherwise, she would have alarmed the security guards below long ago.
HUFF. She took a deep breath, and her body softly collapsed to the ground. Her Spiritual Power was depleted from her full-powered strike. She had no choice but to lie on the ground, gasping for air.
She lay there quietly, allowing the cold wind to continuously blow against her. Only such a cold wind could remind her of the humiliation she had suffered in her previous life.
"Ah, what happened here?" a sharp voice rang out. Two figures suddenly appeared at the mountaintop. Shangguan You frowned. Her body flickered, and she vanished into the space, disappearing from the mountaintop.
"How did these trees...? They were fine yesterday! How could they have ended up like this?" the voice continued to exclaim in shock. The newcomers were a man and a woman, both dressed in thick clothing.
"Enough with the drama," the man rebuked sharply, successfully silencing the woman. However, the shock in her eyes lingered for a long time.
"How is Shangguan You doing?" the man asked in a deep, menacing voice that the wind scattered across the mountaintop. "She seems like a different person. Not only has her appearance improved, but her skills have become very good. She has caused quite a stir in school, transferring from freshman to senior year, and the other day she beat five troublemakers to the ground... What exactly is her identity?" The woman narrated the events as she asked the man beside her, a tremble in her voice.
She did not know whether what she was doing was right or wrong, but for the sake of her family, she had no way back.
"You don’t need to know her identity. Just carry out tonight’s plan as intended. Continue to surveil her every move, pay more attention to the people around her, don’t let her discover you, and don’t let anyone find any traces. Otherwise..."
The man threatened in a sinister tone, his voice heavy with killing intent.
"I, I understand. What about the money you promised me?"
"Handle tonight’s affair well. Tomorrow morning, I will have many people go and enjoy the show."
"Zhu Li, that fool, is her only friend. It’s better to leave it to that fool than anyone else. I believe she won’t suspect anything."
"Hmm, I’ve already arranged for the reporters. Just make sure nothing goes wrong. Otherwise, you know what the consequences will be..."
The man tossed a check and then disappeared from the mountaintop. The woman also left. The cold wind continued to blow atop the mountain, deepening the chill in Shangguan You’s heart.
She had not expected someone to be scheming against her, let alone at such a remote mountaintop which, unfortunately for them, she had witnessed. It seemed their conspiracy was doomed to fail.
"Heh, you’re trying to scheme against me? You’ll have to wait until your next life." Inside the space, Shangguan You sat cross-legged, continuously channeling her Spiritual Energy. She clearly overheard the conversation outside.
Without a doubt, she knew who was monitoring her every move. A cold smirk curled at the corner of her mouth. After taking a bath in the space and changing her clothes, she looked at the rust-covered Medicine King Cauldron and had to sigh once again. Why is the Medicine King Cauldron still rusting despite all the medicine I’ve refined? Thankfully, the medicines don’t taste of rust. After picking a few Spirit Fruits and sipping some Spring Water, she leisurely emerged from the space. She activated her Spiritual Energy and ran swiftly down the mountain.
Villa 5288 was brightly lit. In the open-air hot springs, groups of classmates were soaking, enjoying the evening.
"You’re back. The rooms in 5303 are limited and got a bit crowded since we all soaked together, so I took the liberty to let them come here. We might as well stay here for the night since there are plenty of rooms. You don’t mind, do you?" Lan Xuan said with a warm smile to the cold-faced Shangguan You.
"Youyou, where have you been? I’ve been looking for you for a long time."
"Youyou, are you hungry? Come eat something first!" Zhu Li said, seeing Shangguan You return. She escorted her into the villa and served the food that had been set aside for her.
"I know you dislike Feng Shaomei and the others, and so do I. But as soon as you left, they all begged Lan Xuan and Han Yachu. Even that shameless Feng Shao’an chimed in to support them. They even brought up their connection to the Deputy Director of Education. Lan Xuan had no choice but to let the six of them stay."
"They really have thick skins, shamelessly moving in. Shen Jia, Liao Si, Gao Lili, Li Ruo, and Feng Shaomei are incredibly shameless. The moment they got here, they stripped naked and got into the hot spring, as if afraid people wouldn’t know they were women."
Zhu Li spoke angrily. It was clearly Youyou who booked this villa! Why should those women be allowed to take over, snatching Youyou’s villa and making her so unhappy?
"Zhu Li, it’s okay. There are plenty of rooms anyway, and I don’t mind the money. Just consider it charity; they had nowhere else to stay," Shangguan You said, quietly eating her food under everyone’s gaze. Then she took a sip of orange juice, her cool voice reaching everyone’s ears.
"What do you mean by that?" Shen Jia yelled, wrapping a towel around herself as she stood up from the hot springs and glared at her.
"I’m rich, and I’m bestowing charity upon you all. Enjoy yourselves as much as you can. Such an opportunity isn’t available to just anyone," Shangguan You said coldly, sweeping a glance over them before standing up amidst everyone’s stares and heading upstairs.
"Youyou, wait for me!" Zhu Li called, chasing after Shangguan You. Lan Xuan, Han Yachu, and Gui Mo also retreated to their rooms. If it hadn’t been for those people’s shamelessness, today’s events would not have occurred, and Shangguan You wouldn’t have been so cold.
