Chapter 99: Chapter 99 Dear Sister, Save Me!!!

Seeing the man approach, one of the individuals with a long scar across his face dropped the cards in his hand and jerked his chin toward him.

“How is it, have those people outside left?”

“They’re gone.” The man spat on the ground, “Damn it, I thought this place was hidden and remote enough, but who would’ve thought a bunch of people would show up here to do some TV live streaming? They even came knocking today!”

Scar Face frowned and his expression turned serious, “Was that guy who came knocking yesterday also with them?”

“Yes!”

Scar Face was silent for a moment, then his face turned vicious.

...

“We can’t stay here much longer. Alright, let’s quickly clear out the goods and send them off, then find another place. We were almost discovered a while ago, and now these TV crews have come along, fucking hell!”

“Alright, big brother, I’ll contact the others right away.”

“Wait.” Scar Face rotated the dagger by the table thoughtfully, “Remember to get in touch with that guy from the Gu Family, tell him I’ve got a deal to discuss with him.”

“Okay.”

After leaving Aunt Ying’s house, Jiang Li headed straight back to the cabin.

Those who had their fortunes told earlier had gradually sent over the fortune-telling fee, and food and drinks nearly filled half the room.

Aunt Lin even brought over a pig’s head.

It was meant for her daughter’s engagement with her son-in-law, but now that relations had soured between the two families, the pig’s head was useless and could serve as nourishment for Jiang Li instead.

Jiang Li could only accept it with a bitter smile.

Once everyone had cleared out, she washed the pig’s head, then neatly sliced off all the meat and marinated it in a basin.

She planned on making braised pig’s head meat for dinner that night, and the rest would be preserved to give to Uncle Zhao.

She wandered around Uncle Zhao’s house to get a rough idea of his family situation.

It could be summed up in four words: poverty-stricken. However…

Images of the man she had seen earlier floated into her mind, and Jiang Li felt a tinge of curiosity, but she quickly suppressed it.

This was someone else’s family affair; it was best for an outsider like her not to listen, look, or ask.

After processing all the ingredients, Jiang Li returned to her room and picked up a book to read anew.

The previously bustling live stream had quieted down, but the popularity hadn’t decreased by much.

The more the audience watched, the more they discovered an inexplicable and comforting charm about this girl, even when she just sat quietly reading, her presence was refreshing.

“Every day I marvel a hundred times, Sister Li is so beautiful, I never tire of her face.”

“Please, Lili, debut as an actress right away! I feel like Lili would look breathtaking in ancient costume!”

“No way, you’re praising Jiang Li already? The title of ancient costume goddess clearly belongs to my Wenwen, Jiang Li stay away!”

“Apologize! Jiang Li come out and apologize, this won’t end until you apologize to Wenwen!”

“Can I say something? I used to be a casual fan of Su Yinwan, since she was both a great actress and beautiful, and seemed like a nice person, but why are her fans clinging onto Jiang Li like rabid dogs, especially when Jiang Li is actually a good person?”

“Are all of you hired by Jiang Li as fake supporters? It’s only been two days since she joined a variety show, and you can’t see her dark past anymore? That’s some quick laundering, huh?”

Since she developed a habit in ancient times, Jiang Li didn’t check her phone much and was unaware of how fiercely the people on Weibo were arguing over her and Su Yinwan.

She was simply immersed in her own little world, quietly absorbing the knowledge from the books.

The sun gradually moved westward, and soon it was evening.

Finally, Jiang Li closed her book and got up from her chair, stretching her limbs.

Just as she was considering whether to practice a set of boxing, her phone on the desk suddenly vibrated.

Picking it up, to her surprise, it was a call from Jiang Yan.

“Jiang Li, dear sister, help!”

He had no choice but to chase the cow along the ridges in a wild run.

As he ran, the cow disappeared and what presented before him was a group of yellow cattle leisurely grazing on the slope.

Jiang Yan was dumbfounded.

Originally, he could have identified his old yellow cow by the iron plow, but in the process of chasing, the old cow had somehow thrown off the plow.

He desperately called Director Sun. fгeewebnovёl.com

“Hello, Director Sun, the ox has run away, should I continue plowing my land?”

Director Sun, who had been dozing, sat up alarmed, “What?! You’ve lost the ox? That won’t do! The crew borrowed it from a villager and paid a high rental fee, if it can’t be found, your good score is in jeopardy.”

Jiang Yan: “……”

Now, he had no choice but to squeeze his way into the herd of cows.

He prided himself on reading people, but when it came to cows… he was utterly clueless.

To him, these cows all looked the same!

Just as he was considering whether to randomly pick one and bluff his way through, the herd seemed to sense his ill-intent and started howling and digging their hooves at him.

Jiang Yan, who had already been chased by the old yellow cow, of course knew what this signal foretold.

Thus, he hurriedly fled while snatching up his phone to call Jiang Li.

But unexpectedly, just as he started to run, the entire herd was startled and swarmed at him in a frenzy.

With no regard for his phone, Jiang Yan threw it and started sprinting like mad.

And so, a ludicrous and chaotic scene unfolded—

A tall man wearing sunglasses and a Tibetan robe, brimming with energy, running wildly across the field;

Behind him, a herd of yellow cows on the verge of rampage;

And trailing the herd, a cameraman carrying his equipment, attempting to help Jiang Yan but unwilling to miss capturing this spectacular spectacle.
