Chapter 436: Chapter 436 Golden Tycoon (1)
Chuzheng didn’t know where she was, she felt herself rolling downwards.
Her hands and feet were bound, and there was darkness in front of her, as if she had been put into a bag.
As she rolled, she inevitably bumped into things, guessing there wasn’t a single spot on her body that wasn’t bruised.
Not knowing how long she had been rolling, she finally stopped.
Chuzheng lay there without any desire to continue living.
She didn’t want to move at all.
After lying there like a corpse for a while and regaining some strength, Chuzheng started to move.
Her first task was to extricate herself from the bag, enveloped by darkness outside, stuck amid the trees on a slope; otherwise, her rolling would resume.
Which Bastard did this!
The fear of being dominated by a Spendthrift came into Chuzheng’s mind, paying up was too terrifying.
Compensate with your life!
[…]Miss, which is really more terrifying!
The original host’s surname was Xia.
Abandoned at an orphanage when very young, she was later picked out by the Mercenary Organization.
All the people here were selected from an orphanage.
They trained together since childhood, and if one didn’t train hard, they’d be eliminated.
And elimination meant death.
Driven by the will to survive, the original host made it to the end.
In the end, she even became a capable general in the organization.
The original host fancied a man in the organization named Lin Feng.
Lin Feng and she came from the same orphanage. Since joining the organization, they were almost inseparable.
Lin Feng also had a sister named Lin Yan, and before the original host became the favored one by the Boss, the three of them were the Golden Triangle.
The missions they undertook never ended in failure.
Lin Yan was well aware that the original host liked Lin Feng and often joked about it with them.
However, Lin Feng didn’t seem to fancy the original host.
The original host thought she had no chance until, from a certain day, Lin Feng suddenly started to be nice to her, responding to her.
Naturally, the original host was happy.
But what the original host didn’t expect was that Lin Feng had an ulterior motive for being nice to her.
Lin Feng conspired to frame the original host, leading the Boss to believe she had betrayed him.
That time, the target they aimed to strike down was actually the Boss, but they failed, and to not implicate themselves, they pushed the original host forward.
All of this had been premeditated by them.
If the action failed, the original host would be the scapegoat.
The kindness Lin Feng showed to the original host was just to find out information about the Boss’s movements and schedule.
The original host was labeled a traitor, and since Lin Feng and Lin Yan contributed to this outcome, they took her place and quickly became the favored ones by the Boss.
Meanwhile, the original host was locked in the Mercenary Organization’s dark room.
Fearing that the original host might disclose something, Lin Feng and Lin Yan plotted her quiet death.
After Chuzheng finished absorbing the memories, she fell silent.
The original host wasn’t dumb either!
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have achieved the position of being the favored one of the Boss.
But how did she fall for such a scheme by these two Bastards?
[The original host considered them friends and let her guard down around them. It’s normal that she got caught. That’s why we need to counterattack!!]
Chuzheng nodded thoughtfully.
The King’s Account felt somewhat reassured. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ n0velfire.net
“So, no friends,” Chuzheng concluded.
[…]King’s Account apologized internally, it was wrong.
It should have never harbored any hope for the young lady.
How could her thought process be on the same frequency as a normal person’s?!
The King’s Account resigned itself to silence.
The timeline now is exactly when Lin Feng and his sister planned to kill the organization’s boss.
The original host was drugged by them and thrown here to prevent her from getting in the way of the boss, and also to have her as a scapegoat in case they failed.
Since the original host was not on guard against them, the siblings Lin Feng found it easy to drug her.
Chuzheng leaned against a tree, rolled up her sleeve, and glanced at the time on her watch.
Ten o’clock at night.
Two more hours until Lin Feng and his sister’s plan was set to unfold…
In two hours, if Lin Feng and his sister’s plan failed, the original host… no, now it was her, she would become the mastermind behind this attempt.
A hot potato was flying towards her…
Chuzheng took a breath and calmly checked her belongings.
All the useful items had been taken away; she still had to thank those two siblings for not stripping her clothes.
[Main Quest: Spend fifty thousand yuan within an hour.]
Right as Chuzheng climbed up, the King’s Account blurted out this sentence so cheerfully that Chuzheng almost choked.
You bastard, are you trying to get me killed?
[Miss, how could I let you die? This is for your own good!] The King’s Account was very innocent: [You are now penniless, but it’s different with money.]
Chuzheng’s face was indifferent: “…”
I’d rather be penniless.
It’s been so long, miss, how can you still resist being a spendthrift.
What’s so bad about being a spendthrift!
Chuzheng surveyed her surroundings, not knowing what kind of place it was; she walked a distance, saw a road, and a village.
People in the village were asleep, and it was quiet at the moment.
A dog owned by one of the households burst out of nowhere and started barking at her through the gate.
You scared the hell out of me!
Can’t you have a heart for someone like me who just escaped death, so weak and helpless, desperately in need of assistance?
“Woof woof woof woof woof woof!!”
The dog kept barking and even aroused the whole village’s dogs, starting a chorus of barking that was incredibly eerie.
“Da Huang, what are you barking for?”
The owner of the first barking dog, seemingly woken up by the noise, scolded unhappily.
“Woof woof woof woof!!” Da Huang barked even more fiercely.
Da Huang’s owner, probably annoyed by the racket, turned on the light.
A shadow moved across the window, followed by the front gate opening.
Chuzheng stood at the entrance to the courtyard.
The courtyard gate was a metal one, and the person inside opened the gate and immediately saw a shadow standing at the entrance.
Anyone would be startled at first glance.
Da Huang’s owner was no exception; Chuzheng saw him visibly step back.
But maybe he was quite brave; he didn’t scream but instead asked her loudly, “Who… what are you?”
Chuzheng, expressionless: “You’re the one who’s something.”
“…” Da Huang’s owner pulled out his phone, turned on the flashlight, and shone it on Chuzheng, possibly reassured by seeing the shadow on the ground, he visibly relaxed: “Damn it! Who the hell are you? Scaring people outside my house in the middle of the night.”
With the dog barking like that in the dead of the night, he thought there was a ghost.
Turns out it was a person.
Are thieves so bold nowadays?
Chuzheng thought for a moment: “God of Wealth.” I’m here to bring money.
I wanted to be a cold-blooded boss, but I ended up being a Spendthrift instead.
You never know what kind of surprises will pop up next.
“Are you crazy?” Da Huang’s owner cursed: “Get lost quick, my family is so poor we can’t even lift the lid off our pot. There’s nothing for you to steal!”
Chuzheng was very satisfied: “That’s great, I’m not poor, I have money.”
This damn guy must be a lunatic!
Running to his house in the middle of the night to make enemies.
