Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 641 Dawn (47)

The matter ended with Yan Yuxi receiving a severe scolding from Chu Huian.

Yan Yuxi went back to her room crying.

As soon as Chu Huian and Aunt Zhang left, Yan Zhen and Jing Chen exchanged a knowing glance.

The two raised their hands and gave each other a high five. Jing Chen asked in a low voice, "Feeling better now?"

"Much better," Yan Zhen said with a grin. "Sure enough, bad moods don't disappear, but they can be shifted."

Jing Chen ruffled her hair: "Go wash your hair, I'll blow-dry it for you."

On the fourth floor, Yan Yuxi sat alone in her room, getting angrier and angrier as she thought about it. She gripped the armrest of her chair so tightly that the veins on her hands stood out.

Xiang Yong, that good-for-nothing, didn't she tell him all the information, including Yan Zhen's school address and dismissal time? Why hasn't he gone to cause trouble for her yet?

Thinking of this, Yan Yuxi took out her phone and called Xiang Yong.

The call was dialed, and it took a while to connect. The voice on the other end was not Xiang Yong, but Xu Yingxia.

From Xu Yingxia, Yan Yuxi learned that Xiang Yong had been beaten and injured, and was currently in the hospital.

Yan Yuxi sensed something was amiss and quickly asked, "What happened? Who hit him?"

Xu Yingxia recounted what happened: "...Xiao Yong didn't see clearly who hit him."

“It must be Yan Zhen! If it’s not her, it must be her brother!” Yan Yuxi said immediately. “These two siblings are in cahoots, and they even got me scolded by Chu Huian today.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Yingxia flew into a rage: "What is this wretched girl trying to do?"

“She probably already knows you’ve been following her,” Yan Yuxi said. “She not only doesn’t want to acknowledge you, but she also wants to sever ties with you. You are her adoptive mother, and you raised her. Without you, she might have died long ago. Her current actions are simply ungrateful.”

Before Xu Yingxia could speak, Xiang Yong snatched her phone away. His voice was weak but full of anger: "I'm calling the police! That brat, and her brother, beat me up like this, I'm going to send them to jail!"

Yan Yuxi stopped her, saying, "No, we can't call the police."

Why can't we call the police?

“Yan Zhen is only thirteen years old, and you weren’t seriously injured. If she takes the blame and says she did it, at most she’ll just get a verbal warning and a few thousand yuan in medical expenses. She won’t have to pay any price,” Yan Yuxi said. “If it really escalates to the point of going to the police station, forget about the dowry of tens of thousands of yuan, you won’t get a single penny from her.”

Xiang Yong said irritably, "Then what do you suggest we do?"

Yan Yuxi gripped the armrests of the chair tightly and said through gritted teeth, "Yan Yi and Chu Huian value Yan Zhen very much. As long as you have something to hold against them, let alone a dowry of tens of thousands, for the sake of your biological daughter Yan Zhen, it wouldn't be a problem for them to buy you a car and a house in a first-tier city."

Xiang Yong's heart skipped a beat: "What should I do?"

-

Xiang Yong was quiet for a week after he was beaten.

But a week later, he started stalking Yan Zhen again.

On the third day of his pursuit of Yan Zhen, Jing Chen went on a "business trip".

Xiang Yong was secretly delighted. As long as Jing Chen wasn't around, it would be much easier for him to get close to Yan Zhen, and there was no risk of being beaten up again.

Ke Yanzhen was very cautious. Whether going to or from school or going out, she would either take a taxi or a bus, and she would always go to crowded places, leaving Xiang Yong with no way to make a move.

It's the weekend in a blink of an eye.

Xiang Yong finally found an opportunity—Yan Yuxi told him that Chu Huian had a close friend surnamed Chen who opened an eco-friendly farm in the suburbs. The farm was opening on Sunday, and Chu Huian was invited to attend the opening ceremony. Chu Huian would bring Yan Zhen along.

The farm is surrounded by mountains on three sides. The crowds and chaos on opening day make it a good opportunity to make a purchase.

Xiang Yong readily agreed and began making preparations for it.

On Sunday, Yan Zhen accompanied Chu Huian to the farm.

Chu Huian drove, and Yan Zhen sat in the passenger seat. Not long after the car left the Yan family home, Yan Zhen noticed a motorcycle following behind.

The motorcycle maintained a respectful distance from their vehicle, following them all the way to the farm.

Yan Zhen pretended not to see it.

Upon arriving at the farm, before getting out of the car, Chu Huian instructed Yan Zhen: "Perform well today, don't embarrass me."

Yan Zhen, thinking about the upcoming plan, unusually obediently replied, "OK."

The opening ceremony went smoothly. Mrs. Chen has a lot of influence; in addition to Chu Huian, she invited several other prominent figures from Yuncheng to cut the ribbon for the opening ceremony. There were also many media outlets broadcasting the event live.

Yan Zhen followed Chu Hui'an like a little tail, never leaving her side.

As night fell, the media and guests left one after another, leaving only a few close friends of Mrs. Chen for a small gathering.

There was a wild mushroom and chicken soup on the table. Yan Zhen took a couple of sips and found it delicious. She ladled a bowl and handed it to Chu Huian: "Mom, this is delicious. You should try it."

Chu Huian frowned slightly: "I don't drink such greasy things at night."

Yan Zhen asked the waiter for some oil-filtering paper and carefully filtered off the thin layer of oil on top of the chicken soup. When she served it to Chu Huian again, she quietly put a small pill into it.

"Okay, it's not greasy anymore."

Seeing this, the others at the table smiled and praised Yan Zhen as a filial and considerate daughter.

Chu Huian didn't want to drink it at first, but after being praised by her best friends, her vanity kicked in, and she accepted the chicken soup and drank it anyway.

After the get-together ended, the girlfriends left one by one.

Chu Huian and Yan Zhen arrived at the parking lot, but after getting into the car, they hesitated to start it.

"Mom, aren't you leaving?" Yan Zhen asked, feigning ignorance.

Chu Huian rubbed her temples and complained, "I feel a little dizzy... It's probably because of that bowl of chicken soup. I told you I don't eat greasy food at night, but you insisted I drink it."

Yan Zhen asked with concern, "Is it alright? Should I go and tell Aunt Chen to send a driver to take us back?"

"No," Chu Huian refused. "If your Aunt Chen finds out I felt unwell after drinking chicken soup, she'll laugh at me again."

Mrs. Chen believes in living for the moment and strongly disagrees with Chu Huian's strict body management methods. Almost every time they meet, she tries to persuade Chu Huian to change her unhealthy aesthetic sense, otherwise her health will collapse sooner or later.

Chu Huian didn't want to expose her shortcomings in front of her best friend, so after thinking for a moment, she asked Yan Zhen to call the family driver and have him come pick up her and her daughter.

Yan Zhen responded and made a phone call to the driver.

While she was making the phone call, Chu Huian had already fallen asleep in the driver's seat.

"Mom? Mom?" Yan Zhen nudged her.

Under the influence of the powerful sleeping pills, Chu Huian became disoriented and almost fell into a coma.

Yan Zhen raised an eyebrow slightly, got out of the car, walked around to the driver's seat, opened the car door, carried Chu Huian out, and put her in the trunk.

After doing all that, she got into the driver's seat and drove away.

After leaving the manor, the drive back to the city center requires passing through a sparsely populated section of road.

As soon as the car entered that section of road, a motorcycle lay across the middle of the road, blocking the way.

Yan Zhen pretended not to realize it was a trap and got out of the car to check the situation.

But just as she reached the front of the car, a person suddenly sprang out from the bushes beside her and struck her on the back of the neck with a hand blade.

Yan Zhen's body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground.
