Chapter 911: You All Should Leave Here ASAP!

Jiang Ran: ...

Green-haired Guy: "Fine, I'll say it."

"They died when I was very young."

"I was raised by my grandparents, but unfortunately, a few years later, they followed my parents too. So, you could say I'm an orphan!"

Jiang Ran never expected the Green-haired Guy to have such a background. This was practically a disaster-class opening!

The Green-haired Guy glanced around his own home, then said, "Though, this is probably the last time I'll ever come back here."

Jiang Ran: "Don't you have other relatives in this village? Judging by what you're saying, it sounds like you plan to leave and never return?"

The Green-haired Guy sneered dismissively: "Sure, I definitely have other relatives in this village. But these days, who can actually rely on their relatives? When you're rich and successful, your relatives hate your guts behind your back. When you're broke and miserable, your relatives comfort you to your face while laughing at you and mocking you behind your back."

"So, I don't associate with them."

"Besides, those relatives of mine, especially my uncle and aunt, my dad's own brother, they're masters at swindling a dead man's inheritance."

"When my parents had their accident back then, the compensation was actually pretty substantial..."

As the Green-haired Guy recalled the past, a trace of sorrow involuntarily appeared on his face, though it vanished in an instant.

He said, "Sigh! One day, I'm going to crush the balls of every single one of those people who stole what was rightfully mine!"

Jiang Ran: ...

At that moment, the Green-haired Guy seemed to remember something. He suddenly turned his head and looked around.

Seeing that no one seemed to be nearby, he quietly leaned in close to Jiang Ran and the others and said:

"Take my advice. After you finish showing kindness and handing out the stuff to those worthless pieces of trash in the village, leave right away! Don't stick around here."

Jiang Ran lowered his head and whispered: "What do you mean? Are you saying we're in danger? Don't tell me..."

The Green-haired Guy chuckled: "Heh heh, it's not a life-threatening danger. Even though the lady beside you is quite beautiful, rest assured, the people in this village don't dare pull that kind of stunt."

"But, there's not a single good person in this village. They're all a bunch of beasts."

"Every last one of them is a wolf in sheep's clothing."

"So, I'm telling you, don't stay here too long. Get it done and leave."

Jiang Ran smiled wryly: "We're just accompanying our friend here. If our friend won't leave, what are we supposed to do?"

Green-haired Guy: "Didn't your friend already finish handing everything out? What else is there to do?"

Jiang Ran: "At the end, we still need to build a road for the village."

The Green-haired Guy clicked his tongue: "Too much money burning a hole in your pocket! Oh! I get it now, internet celebrities... they just love pulling this kind of stunt."

"But you're showing kindness to a bunch of beasts. What a waste. You'll probably regret it in the future!"

Jiang Ran thought to himself that the Green-haired Guy probably had a lot of conflicts with the people in this village. Otherwise, he wouldn't be calling them beasts one after another in front of outsiders like the two of them.

Jiang Ran and Wang Qingzhao stayed at the Green-haired Guy's home for about half an hour before leaving.

Jiang Ran's group stayed in the village until around two in the afternoon before driving away.

The two people from the construction crew also left at the same time. The two of them needed to go back and work out a plan. Once the plan was confirmed, construction could likely begin soon.

They returned to the hotel where they were staying.

Since it was still early, the group didn't go out for dinner yet.

Neither did they go out to play.

After all, summer was approaching, and the weather was getting hotter. The sun was truly scorching.

Take Wang Qingzhao and Zhang Xue for example. Every time they went out, they were decked out in full protective gear.

Besides slathering sunscreen on every bit of exposed skin, they armed themselves from head to toe, piling on every kind of sun protection equipment imaginable.

You couldn't even see what the two of them looked like because they were completely covered up, not a single bit of skin touching the sunlight.

And the benefit of this was that both of their skin was indeed fair and clear.

Well-maintained and properly cared for.

So, Jiang Ran and the others all stayed in their hotel rooms.

Jiang Ran, for his part, took a shower and then just lounged on the bed.

Even though he was scrolling through his phone, his mind was still on what the Green-haired Guy had said.

He didn't think the Green-haired Guy was lying, but of course, he didn't fully believe him either.

Anyway, he'd just wait and see for now!

He just hoped the people in this village wouldn't be as scheming as that Fishpond Owner.

In the evening, the group went out to eat and stroll around again.

The meal was all on Zhang Xue's tab.

As an internet celebrity with over two million followers on TikTok, Zhang Xue's income level was far ahead of everyone else in their group.

She made even more than the ten thousand a day one could earn staying at Alice Apartment.

After all, there was once a female internet celebrity with millions of followers who revealed that just lying in bed, the TikTok shop alone could earn her 300,000 a day.

Zhang Xue's monthly earnings were unknown, but they certainly weren't less than 300,000.

Even though she earned a lot, she didn't have to treat everyone, technically.

After all, many rich people weren't generous at all. In fact, they were quite stingy.

Zhang Xue wasn't that kind of person.

After the meal, the group planned to go out shopping and have some fun again.

Both Gao Yang and Qin Chuan declined.

Gao Yang left with a sneering remark: "I don't have as much free time as you guys. I need to get back and edit my footage and videos. I'm swamped."

As for Qin Chuan, he used the same excuse.

Of course, Gao Yang might really be going back to edit footage and videos, but Qin Chuan was a different story. If Qin Chuan went back, he'd most likely be gambling online.

So, the ones going out to stroll were Jiang Ran, Wang Qingzhao, Zhang Xue, and Zhao Yiwan. Three women and one man.

"Yiwan, have you and Qin Chuan managed to break up yet?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

On the bustling night street, men and women flowed past endlessly.

Zhang Xue held Zhao Yiwan's hand and asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yiwan let out a sigh: "I want to break up, but he won't agree. He keeps clinging to me, so all I can do is just drag it out."

Zhang Xue said: "Honestly, breaking up is the right call. I fully support you. You've already paid off hundreds of thousands in gambling debts for him, all because you wanted him to turn over a new leaf and live a proper life with you."

"But what does he do? He says with his mouth, 'I won't gamble anymore, I haven't been gambling,' but in reality, he's still betting the whole time."

"So, breaking up is the right decision. Staying with him is hopeless. It's hopeless for the rest of your life."

Zhao Yiwan nodded: "That's right. With him, there's no hope to be seen, only endless despair."

Jiang Ran had also learned about Qin Chuan's situation from Wang Qingzhao.

He shared his opinion: "Generally, once someone gets hooked on gambling, it's basically over. It's extremely hard to quit."

"Never mind ordinary people, even rich people can't withstand gambling endlessly."

"Besides, online gambling... even in real-life gambling, there are unbelievably skilled card sharks. But online, with just a click of a mouse and keyboard, thinking you can come out a winner is pure delusion."

"However, you two need to be careful about your current situation too. If Qin Chuan gets cornered into a desperate move, watch out that he doesn't try to take you down with him!!!!"
