The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 1130 - 1099
Chapter 1130: Chapter 1099
He Tiantian frowned, "Ah, Zhou Yuanyuan has already gone mad, and with Zhou Bing dead, the direct line of the Zhou Family is gone. Those collateral relatives won’t risk their lives to fight against the Huo Family for Zhou Bing’s family."
Now, suddenly, Zhou Bing’s illegitimate daughter, Xu Weiwei, has appeared, and she has been brainwashed by her lovestruck mother, inheriting the Zhou Family’s stubborn and crazy genes. She will probably be difficult to deal with.
"Xu Canyun is a woman in love. She has always told her daughter that her father was a good man. Especially when the Zhou Family was in trouble, they received more valuable things sent to them through special means. We recently found out that before Zhou Bing passed away, he wrote a letter to Xu Canyun and her daughter, telling them to take revenge for the Zhou Family if they ever got the chance," Cui Ying said. "And we have confirmed that Xu Weiwei is indeed Zhou Bing’s illegitimate daughter."
"Hmm, this is also an important clue," He Tiantian nodded. "By the way, what is Xu Weiwei doing now? Is she still studying?"
Cui Ying shook her head and said, "She’s not studying anymore. She entered a singing competition and got second place. Now she has signed with an entertainment company and has become a somewhat famous singer in Xiangjiang. She is now moving into acting in film and television."
"Keep an eye on Xu Weiwei," He Tiantian said. "See if they’ve been doing anything unusual lately. Also, check on the mother and daughter’s usual situation."
"Yes," Cui Ying nodded. "And the gangster Boss?"
"Keep an eye on him as well. Yingjie will come and investigate," He Tiantian said. "You’ll have to work hard these days."
"It’s not hard. You just need to be careful when you go out," Cui Ying said. "But with me by your side, I should be able to protect you. As for the investigation, leave that to Huashan."
With Cui Ying by her side, and Wei Yuanyuan, He Tiantian indeed felt much more at ease.
In an apartment in Xiangjiang, a mother and daughter were dining while watching the TV report on the arrival of the Mainland national swimming team.
There were individual photos of the athletes, as well as some pictures of them competing.
"Now that Xiangjiang has more contact with the Mainland, perhaps travel between the Mainland and Xiangjiang will become much easier in the future," Xu Canyun said leisurely. "Your dad hasn’t written to us for a long time. I don’t know if he’s dead or alive."
As she spoke, tears involuntarily streamed down Xu Canyun’s face.
Xu Weiwei, who was watching TV, felt downhearted upon hearing her mother’s words. Although she had never met her father, her mother had told her that he was a powerful man, a high-ranking official on the Mainland, who had fallen victim to his enemies and thus, they had lost contact, not knowing if he was dead or alive.
But her father had sent many good things to them, enough for a lifetime for mother and daughter.
However, in Xu Weiwei’s heart, like her mother, she had the desire to avenge her father.
She wasn’t good at studying, but she was beautiful, so she could only enter the entertainment industry. That way, she could not only make money but also connect with some influential people to prepare for future revenge.
Suddenly, Xu Weiwei’s gaze fixed on the face of a female athlete on the TV, somewhat transfixed. The reason this athlete caught her attention was that she resembled one of the people in the photos sent by her father that depicted the enemies of their family.
"Mom, this woman looks like one of the people from the enemy family photos that Dad sent us," Xu Weiwei said. Without waiting for her mother to react, she ran to her room and took out the photo album where the photos were kept.
The last page contained a large family portrait, not of the Zhou Family, but of the Huo Family.
The names were written in sequence.
He Tiantian!
The same as the athlete’s name on TV, also known as He Tiantian.
"Mom, look, this woman is the athlete on TV, and the Huo Family has come to Xiangjiang." Xu Weiwei excitedly said, "Mom, does this mean we can avenge Dad now?"
Xu Canyun came to her senses, took the photo her daughter handed over, and compared it with the one on TV.
It was indeed the same person!
Xu Canyun had always wanted to avenge her beloved, but they were just two women, without the power to take revenge!
"She’s the daughter-in-law of the Huo Family’s Second Wife," Xu Canyun said, "She is our enemy, but we have no power to take revenge right now."
Her daughter had only just made a name for herself in the entertainment circle and didn’t have much clout!
Having heard that, Xu Weiwei wasn’t concerned and replied with a slight smile, "Mom, although we don’t have the capability to deal with He Tiantian, there are others who do!"
"Who?" Xu Canyun was startled, "We don’t know any rich and powerful people in Xiangjiang. Besides, although I want to avenge your father, I don’t want you to be in danger either!"
"Hehe, Mom, have you forgotten about Grandma Ma?" Xu Weiwei had a cryptic smile on her face, "We can ask Grandma Ma to help us..."
"Grandma Ma?" Xu Canyun suddenly understood, "Grandma Ma is a capable person with many eerie methods. Luckily, we did a good deed back then and saved her life, occasionally helped her out, and she even took you as her apprentice. Perhaps she really will help us."
"Master is very good to me," Xu Weiwei said. As Grandma Ma’s disciple, she knew even better than her mother just how formidable Grandma Ma was.
Grandma Ma was a famous Thai priestess with many uncanny methods. If she hadn’t been framed, she wouldn’t have fallen on hard times and ended up in Xiangjiang.
Just by getting some tricks from Grandma Ma, they could surreptitiously afflict He Tiantian. Those Gu insects wouldn’t kill He Tiantian immediately but could lurk in her body for many days, so it would be impossible to trace back to them.
"Hmm, I’ll make some delicious food later, and you can take it to Grandma Ma and ask if she has any good ideas," Xu Canyun suggested, "Make sure that whatever method she gives you can take He Tiantian’s life without casting any suspicion on you."
"Got it, Mommy," Xu Weiwei was somewhat excited. She was very fond of those methods; she had used them before to make her competitors in a singing contest inconspicuously fail.
Now, she was going to learn to use even more formidable secret techniques.
Xu Weiwei took the things her mom prepared and went to the countryside to visit Grandma Ma.
Grandma Ma lived alone in the countryside in a house that used to belong to their family.
Originally, Xu Canyun and her daughter wanted Grandma Ma to live in the city, but she refused, saying she preferred the countryside air and insisted on staying there.
Grandma Ma was alone with no family, so Xu Weiwei, her disciple, was like her posterity.
Xu Weiwei had a talent, and Grandma Ma had gradually taught her some techniques. However, these were Forbidden Techniques, and Grandma Ma didn’t want Xu Weiwei to end up like her: not quite human, not quite a ghost in her old age. Since there were other choices, there was no need to walk this path.
This path seems powerful, but it is fraught with deadly risks. One could meet their end any day.
