Chapter 9 Cleaning Up the Sun Family

Sun Ruiming naturally had his own considerations, knowing that some things could not be rushed. Although Old Master Chu had passed away, his many old friends would undoubtedly keep an eye on Chuyunyi’s situation for the time being. Besides, he had his own selfish reasons, unwilling to exert himself for the benefit of others in the family: "Second Sister-in-law, we cannot rush this matter." Not to be outdone, Sun Xiaoyan chimed in, "Third Brother, now that no one is stopping us, you should quickly have Chuyunyi take me to complete the job transfer. Otherwise, I’ll feel completely uneasy." This time, Sun Ruiming was quite agreeable. "Alright," he said, "I’ll go find her tomorrow and have her make time to take you there for the formalities." This made Sun Xiaoyan happy. "Third Brother, you’re the best!" She thought of something and added, "Once the transfer is complete, I won’t have to worry about the authorities hounding me to go to the countryside anymore." Her words sparked different thoughts in everyone present. Yunyi, listening to their conversation from within the space, let out a cold laugh. You dream beautifully, but soon you won’t be laughing anymore. As night fell, the Sun Family members retired to their respective rooms in the forty-square-meter dwelling, which had been partitioned into four small chambers. Hearing no more noise outside, Yunyi exited the space. Though this body has no foundation in Martial Arts, with my experience from the past two lives, pressing a few sleeping acupoints isn’t a problem. Due to the hot weather and small rooms, all the doors had been left open, which conveniently facilitated Yunyi’s actions. After pressing the sleeping acupoints of the Sun Family members, she collected all the Money Coupons she could find in their rooms and put them into the space, planning to later exchange them for supplies to donate to the welfare institution in the suburbs. My visit tonight is, of course, to prevent the Sun Family from having the financial resources to bail Sun Ruiming out when I deal with him. Then, she tampered with all their valuables, ensuring they would all soon become unusable. Proud of her handiwork, she dusted off her hands and headed home. By the time she got home, it was already late into the night. Although full of curiosity about the space, she had pressing matters to attend to tomorrow. There’s plenty of time ahead, she thought, preparing to rest first. After I’ve dealt with those scumbags for the original owner of this body, there will be plenty of time to explore the space properly. But just as she lay down, she thought of the irregular gaps between the rocks in the Spatial Stone. Could I use those places to grow some crops? she wondered. Overcome with curiosity, she decided to give it a try. I’ll see the results tomorrow, she thought eagerly. There were no other seeds in the house. Remembering the watermelon Hua Wanqing had previously left in the storeroom, she got up and headed straight there. After getting the watermelon seeds, she took down a small shovel Old Master Chu had used for digging medicinal herbs, planning to use it as a farming tool. Thinking of the well in the space sparked another idea. She turned around, grabbed a clean canning jar from the cabinet, filled it with tap water, and took it with her into the space. Planting in the space is naturally no challenge for me. Normally, watermelon seeds should be soaked before sowing, but I can’t be bothered with that now. She dug holes and planted the seeds directly, watering one side with the water brought from outside and the other with Spatial Well Water, simply waiting to see the outcome later. After doing all this, she left the space. It was getting so late that dawn would break soon. --- 「Shen Family」 The light in the study was still on. The person seated behind the desk wore a grim expression. "The Gu Family is really playing for keeps with us this time." "Family Head, the Hua Family has also secretly given them considerable help this time." "How preposterous! They were already opposing our Shen Family by helping Gu Xibei find a doctor. Now they’ve brazenly sided with the Gu Family. The Hua Family truly doesn’t know how to assess the situation!" the Family Head fumed.
