Chapter 3: Falling Into The Water
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qiu Tong did not inherit any memories from the former owner of her body, so she was a little lost.
She turned around to ask the three children.
The moment she turned her head, the three children who had been following her from afar startled and took a few steps back. It was as if she was a human-eating demon.
Under the faint light outside, Qiu Tong could see that the three children were all very beautiful. They had big eyes, long eyelashes and exquisite facial features.
If not for their dull, dry hair and sunken cheeks, they would have been even more beautiful.
Sigh.
Qiu Tong sighed. It was all her body’s former owner’s fault.
She didn’t want to bring them further fear, so she just continued walking forward. This place wasn’t very big anyway. It wouldn’t be too hard to find.
Qiu Tong walked a few blocks and stopped by a river, looking around.
The three children behind her were whispering.
Qiu Xingyu said, “Look, Mommy really didn’t sell us!”
Qiu Xingqiao snorted. “That’s only because she wanted to raise the price! Eldest Brother, what should we do? She didn’t manage to sell us for 100 million. Will she beat us up again tonight and not give us any food?”
The former Qiu Tong was indeed like this. As long as they did not satisfy her, she would treat them very badly.
Qiu Xingyuan’s gaze was cold and he did not speak.
He saw with his own eyes that this woman had suddenly become very powerful.
She could already beat them half to death before today. Wouldn’t she be able to beat them to death now?
No, he could not let her beat his younger siblings to death!
Today, she must die or they would!
Qiu Xingyuan cleared his throat. A dangerous plan formed in his mind. He sent his sister to the side to play. He asked Qiu Xingqiao to stay and told him his plan.
“This…” f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Qiu Xingqiao was shocked. “This is wrong…”
Qiu Xingyuan said in a low voice, “If not, do you want us to be beaten to death by her?!”
In the end, Qiu Xingqiao gritted his teeth and agreed.
Qiu Tong was speechless as she listened to their conversation.
This was indeed a future big villain. He dared to talk about killing her now. What would happen in the future?
Footsteps from behind could be heard.
Qiu Tong did not move and pretended not to notice.
She could not be bothered to fuss with children. She did not intend to stay in this place. If she let them succeed in their scheme this time, she would be able to help them dispel some of their psychological trauma. She considered this her good deed of the day.
After all, the original Qiu Tong was inhuman. Since she had inherited the body of the original owner, she would take this as a chance to help her atone for her sins.
The next second—
A pair of small hands pushed her hard on her back!
Qiu Tong fell forward and lost her balance. She fell into the water and was soon engulfed by the waves.
“…”
“…”
The fierce Qiu Xingyuan stood by the river and looked at the river. His lips were tightly pursed and his entire body was still trembling.
He had been prepared to die if he failed.
But it was so easy.
The woman who had abused them for so many years actually fell without a word. He felt like he was dreaming.
Qiu Xingqiao pounced on him. “Eldest Brother…”
Qiu Xingyuan pretended to be calm. Only his trembling voice revealed that he was not calm at all.
“Go get Little Yu. Let’s go home.” f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎
At night.
The three children spent their first night without Qiu Tong. Although they did not have anything to eat, it was the first time that there was no one to scold and beat them.
They laid side by side on the small bed, staring at the dim ceiling.
Qiu Xingyu clutched her concave stomach. She was sensible and did not ask for food. Instead, she blinked innocently.
“Eldest Brother, Second Brother, where did Mommy go?”
She was well protected by her two older brothers and was still a little naive. Her impression of Qiu Tong improved a little since she brought them back today.
Qiu Xingyuan patted his sister and coaxed her to sleep. “She has already gone on to a better life and doesn’t want us anymore. In the future, no one will hit or scold you anymore. Aren’t you happy about that?”
“Happy, but…”
Unable to fight off sleep any longer, Qiu Xingyu fell asleep.
Qiu Xingqiao finally dared to stammer, “Eldest Brother, do you think… that woman… is she dead?”
Qiu Xingyuan grunted in affirmation.
Dead.
He had seen with his own eyes that the woman had sunk to the bottom of the water without a single bubble emerging.
Qiu Xingqiao trembled again. “Then… will she become a ghost… and come find us?”
There was not much entertainment in the slums. All kinds of ghost stories became the best bedtime stories for adults to coax children to sleep. They also often heard scary myths and legends.
Qiu Xingyuan’s body stiffened.
He was a child after all, so he was naturally afraid of ghosts. He shook his head forcefully and was about to comfort himself with the words “there are no ghosts in this world”.
The next second, a wet head appeared at the bedside. It was Qiu Tong’s face!
“Ah!!!”
The two brats cried out in fright!
