Chapter 142 The Kind-hearted Landlady
Chapter 142 The Kind-hearted Landlady
"Are you all alright?" They hadn't been idle during this time either, and had learned that these people were no ordinary individuals.
Of course, the pressure increased even more. But thankfully, they cleverly escaped from the criminals; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"We're fine, we just want to get home as soon as possible," Jiang Wan said, shaking her head slightly.
They understand that they must be eager to go home now, where they can feel safe.
"Okay, we'll talk as we walk. Thanks, brothers!"
And so the two of them got into the police car and started their journey home! It would take about three hours to get back from here, and then they would drive over to pick up Shen Wantang, making the round trip take six hours.
Fortunately, Jiang Wan had a habit of carrying some cash with her, otherwise Shen Wantang would have had to sit on the street.
After wandering around for a while, Shen Wantang came to an alley where there was a small hotel where she could book a room without needing an ID card.
Places like this are usually very dangerous, but if we're talking about danger, Shen Wantang is probably in the most danger.
So she booked a room without hesitation: "Boss, can I borrow your phone for a moment? I need to send a message home. My phone was stolen as soon as I arrived here."
"Are you here to work? Sure, you can." The landlady looked at her and then handed her her phone.
After sending a text message skillfully and seeing that it had been successfully sent, Shen Wantang deleted it and returned the phone to the landlady: "Thank you, landlady. I'll go upstairs now."
Because she was carrying large and small bags, she did look like she was out working.
Back in her room, Shen Wantang lay down on the bed.
As she lay there, she felt hungry, so she went downstairs to the convenience store next door and bought a cup of instant noodles and a sausage. She hadn't had this classic combination in a long time.
Back at the small inn, I approached the landlady again: "Landlady, do you have hot water here? I'd like to make some instant noodles."
"Of course I have, here, let me get you some." The proprietress took the instant noodles from her hand and then started boiling water on the spot: "It must be tough for a young lady to be out here on her own, have you found a job yet?"
"Not yet, it's really tough. I'm almost broke. If I can't find a job soon, I'll have to rummage through trash cans." Shen Wantang sighed bitterly, putting on a very convincing act.
If it weren't for the fact that there are currently six or seven hundred million in her room, the system would have believed it too!
"Oh, child, you look so pitiful. You're so thin, you must not be eating properly!" After saying that, the proprietress seemed to remember something. She opened the door behind her and went out, returning less than two minutes later.
Except she had two big sausages in her hands!
"These are homemade sausages. Here, have two for you! Eat your fill, you're so thin." The proprietress even thoughtfully cut the two large sausages into small pieces with a knife and put them into the instant noodle bowl.
He then took an egg out of his pocket and cracked it into the hole.
Finally, pour in boiling water: "There's a lot of food, let it soak a little longer before eating."
"Wow! Thank you, boss lady!" Shen Wantang didn't expect such an unexpected bonus; the large sausage really did look delicious!
So she took the deluxe instant noodles back to her room, turned on the TV, watched boring commercials, and ate the deluxe instant noodles.
"Awesome!" Shen Wantang couldn't help but exclaim.
Time passed by, and Ji Qianqian and Jiang Wan returned home. As soon as Ji Qianqian got home, she checked her text messages and found a message from Shen Wantang.
After obtaining the exact location, Ji Qianqian went to the underground parking garage, got a car, and then went to the Jiang family home to pick up Jiang Wan.
"Wanwan, after what happened, where are you going? It's safer to stay at home." Jiang Wan's mother was very worried. Her precious daughter almost didn't come back, and now she was going out to run around.
Jiang Wan looked a little anxious: "No, Mom, I didn't run around. Look, we both drove, and we were going to pick up our friends."
"I'm really scared right now and I need to relax. My friends will be with me. And this kind of thing won't happen twice, Mom!"
Although Jiang Wan's mother was very worried, she didn't want to put her daughter in a difficult position: "Wanwan, you must be careful. If anything happens, call me immediately!"
"Okay, Mom!" Jiang Wan opened the passenger door and got in the car.
Ji Qianqian looked at the woman in front of her and said, "Hello, Auntie. I am Ji Qianqian from the Ji family. Wanwan and I are very good friends. Don't worry, Auntie, we will definitely be fine."
"The Ji family?" Jiang Wan's mother asked in surprise. When did her daughter start hanging out with the Ji family's daughter? But it was alright: "Okay, be careful."
After the two successfully set off, they quickly drove to pick up Shen Wantang.
After eating and drinking her fill, Shen Wantang lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
But this time she had a very bad dream. In the dream, Ji Yushi was lying on the road covered in blood, and he reached out his hands to touch Shen Wantang.
But in her dream, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't touch Ji Yu, and Shen Wantang watched helplessly as he breathed his last.
"Ji Yushi!" Shen Wantang suddenly sat up in bed, panting heavily.
This dream was so real, it was almost frighteningly real!
How many merit points do I still need?
[Since the host also saved Ji Qianqian and Jiang Wan this time, merit points are increased by 2,000, bringing the total to 7,920.]
[You only need two thousand more to open the store.]
Two thousand? That's at least two lives, but it'll be soon. At worst, she'll set off to find Ji Yushi tomorrow.
They'll definitely rescue something along the way.
Shen Wantang wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, checked the time, and figured that Ji Qianqian and Jiang Wan should arrive soon.
She stared out the window, lost in thought.
Several days have passed, and Ji Yushi still hasn't returned, nor can we contact him, something that has never happened before.
Hopefully, this time all the problems can be solved directly, so that this situation will not happen again in the future.
As I was thinking, there was a knock on the door.
Shen Wantang stood up and stood behind the door. She looked through the peephole and saw that it was the proprietress outside.
She opened the door: "What's wrong, landlady?"
"Two girls came looking for you, saying they were your friends," the proprietress said, pointing to the side.
"Sister-in-law!" Ji Qianqian breathed a huge sigh of relief. It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright!
"Thank you, ma'am. These two are indeed my friends." Shen Wantang's lips curled up slightly.
After confirming Shen Wantang's identity, the proprietress turned and left, mainly because she was afraid that Shen Wantang would be deceived.
"Should we leave now, or wait a while?" Jiang Wan asked, puzzled. They definitely couldn't leave these things for too long.
