Chapter 14: Letting Little Yu Celebrate Children's Day Early with Joy

Page (1/3)

Only after completing these arrangements did she finally focus on leveling up her professional skills, continuing until both her alchemy and engineering experience bars were fully maxed out.

She placed the cat’s nest in the front yard of the villa, leaving a portion of lightly seasoned meat beside it every day. From today onward, she intended to build a bond with this little haven.

In early April, the marriage between Su Yitong and Yu Xunhuan was finalized. Both families dined together, and naturally, Yu Xunge, as Yu Xunhuan’s elder sister, attended—maintaining a polite smile throughout.

The Su family’s upbringing could hardly be called good or bad; they had basic manners, but lacked genuine respect.

After all, it was just a son-in-law by marriage. To put it bluntly, Su Yitong only wanted the genetic beauty of Yu Xunhuan’s face. It didn’t matter if the child was slow, but it couldn’t be ugly. Both sides planned to sign various prenuptial agreements. The Su family was vast— even if the elderly couple and their three children died, Yu Xunhuan could never gain control of the Su family as a mere son-in-law.

Yu Xunge had sat through this meal in her previous life when the Su family’s attitude had been cold. Back then, she had felt sorry for Yu Xunhuan. Now, she focused on her meal, smiling politely. When the Su family left after dinner, only Su Yitong remained. Yu Xunge wanted to leave but was stopped by Yu Xunhuan.

Yu Xunhuan looked at his sister with concern and asked tentatively, “Sis, are you unhappy about my marriage?”

Out of the corner of her eye, Yu Xunge noticed Su Yitong’s expression change. She wanted to ask Yu Xunhuan if he bore a grudge against her, or if he thought that female rivalry would somehow make him more attractive and instill jealousy in Su Yitong. How petty!

Surprised, she looked at Yu Xunhuan and said, “Why would I be? Of course I’m happy.”

Yu Xunhuan gave her a look that said, “Stop pretending.”

Yu Xunge forced a smile. “I truly am happy for you and Yitong. It’s just that my company’s been having problems lately, and I’m afraid I might lose my job.”

Yu Xunhuan was skeptical, but Yu Xunge opened her banking app and showed them her thirty million yuan savings. “Look at this number. Are you not worried?”

Yu Xunhuan’s smile faltered. He wanted to say, “You’re joking, I don’t believe it,” but Yu Xunge’s expression was too sincere.

Su Yitong genuinely believed it too. That amount was only pocket money for her for about a month. Seeing that it was all that was left, her lingering doubts vanished completely.

Yu Xunhuan noticed Su Yitong’s expression and realized he couldn’t arouse her pity today. He shrugged it off, saying there would be other chances. Smiling, he took out his phone to transfer money to Yu Xunge. “Sis, don’t worry, I’ll support you.”

Just as Yu Xunge was about to smile back, Su Yitong pressed down on Yu Xunhuan’s hand. After getting Yu Xunge’s account details, she transferred twenty million. “This is pocket money from me and Xunhuan for you.”

Yu Xunge immediately withdrew her smile from Yu Xunhuan and smiled at Su Yitong instead. “I have photos of Xunhuan from childhood to now in my phone. I’ll send them all to you. Don’t worry, I’ll delete them on my end afterward. From then on, only you will have these photos in the world!”

Su Yitong’s smile grew a little more genuine.

Possessiveness, huh? Female rivalry, huh? Treating me as just part of your little game, huh?

Seeing Yu Xunhuan’s smile grow increasingly stiff, Yu Xunge greeted Yu Qingshan and Yi Qiuguo briefly and left feeling refreshed.

...

Only after maxing out her most important skills did Yu Xunge start to take action.

She hadn’t heard any news from the Liang family. After all, she and the Liang family were not on the same social level. Even if the Su family knew, they wouldn’t tell the Yu family.

She wasn’t going to wait any longer. Today, Yu Xunhuan’s attitude disgusted her deeply.

Yu Xunhuan hadn’t been idle these years. If he had no work at all, Su Yitong wouldn’t have been interested. He was a gaming streamer—good-looking, skilled, with a large fanbase, earning hundreds of thousands monthly just from tips.

He even had a small apartment set up as a studio.

Yu Xunge had no intention of confronting Yu Xunhuan personally. During her previous life on the run, she had known many fellow fugitives. Following the method one of them had shared, she used her disguise skill to explore another side of the city. With fifty pounds of gold, she arranged for someone to shoot Yu Xunhuan’s private parts—not fatally, just enough to cause damage. It was an extremely cost-effective deal.

The gold came from the batch she had taken from Yu Qingshan’s study. Using Yu Qingshan’s money to curb Yu Qingshan’s arrogance—how clever.

Worried the hired person might not measure up to the protagonist’s aura, Yu Xunge stipulated the time for the attack when paying—early morning on April 5, right after Yu Xunhuan left the house. It was best if few people witnessed it since she still hoped Yu Xunhuan would marry into the Su family.

On the night of April 4, at six in the morning, Yu Xunge woke early to return to the Yu residence, collecting three luxury handbags she had previously bought. She drank a bottle of basic invisibility potion and a basic phasing potion, then walked through walls to Yu Xunhuan’s room. Using the skill “Wheel of Fate,” she set his luck value to 1.

Almost no one in the house knew she had come and gone, though anyone checking the surveillance in the neighborhood or elevator would see her arrive at six and leave within half an hour carrying three branded bags.

At eight in the morning, after selling the bags to a nearby second-hand shop, she suddenly heard seven gunshots ringing in quick succession from across the street. Yu Xunge froze. No way—the luck was set to 1, yet not a single shot hit?

Soon after, she received the message: mission failed.

“Damn it, what the hell? Seven shots! Not one hit! He just keeps running and dodging like he’s in a movie. I’m the King of Guns—do you know what that means?”

Had she been too ruthless? Even with luck set to 1, the protagonist aura would find ways to protect him. After all, the hero could survive death, endure serious injuries, and overcome hardships, but he couldn’t become... castrated.

Yu Xunge sent another message: “Try using a knife. Don’t be too harsh—just cut halfway.”

“?”

“Don’t worry, the price stays the same even if you only cut halfway.”

“Why did he offend you?” The King of Guns asked respectfully.

“Hurry up! Or I won’t pay the balance. Remember to take away and destroy the cut-off part.”

Half an hour later, Yu Xunge received a call from Yi Qiuguo. The woman was hysterical, begging her to come quickly to the hospital—her brother had been injured.

Beneath her mask, Yu Xunge’s face was expressionless, but her voice revealed worry and panic. “What happened? What happened? Hello? Mom?”

Yu Qingshan answered the call, his voice heavy with exhaustion, giving an address.

Yu Xunge was truly surprised—this was the black clinic run by another fugitive friend of hers from back then!

By the time she arrived, Yu Xunhuan had been out of surgery for quite some time.

In the dim, cramped hospital room, Yu Qingshan sat smoking beside the bed. Yi Qiuguo was still crying. When she saw Yu Xunge, she wanted to blame her but couldn’t figure out how to pin the fact that her son’s private parts had been half cut off on Yu Xunge.

After stammering, she could only say, “Why are you only here now?!” Then she collapsed onto the bedside and cried again.

Yu Xunge’s expression was heavy with sorrow and disbelief, even a hint of denial. She summoned her best acting skills. “This can’t be! Did he offend someone?”

Yu Qingshan’s mind was elsewhere; the cigarette butt was almost burning his fingers, yet he didn’t take a drag.

Yi Qiuguo choked back tears, shaking her head. “He’s so well-behaved. Who would he have offended?”

Yu Xunge asked, “Is there still a chance to reattach?”

Yi Qiuguo replied, “The attacker had a gun. How big a grudge must there be? He didn’t hit him at first, then fired seven more shots! Then used a knife! It’s just so heartless! A beast…”

Yu Xunge thought: Nice! Those fifty pounds of gold weren’t wasted!
