What to Do When Someone Steals Your Destiny? I'll Just Kill Her

Chapter 12: Careful Layout



Chapter 12

"Perhaps you should carefully consider what has been happening around you lately? Is there anything that could change your mindset or trap you in a quagmire from which you cannot escape?" Qing Xuan suggested.

Ren Ran felt a slight tremor in her heart.

Even without Qing Xuan's reminder, she already understood.

Since when had her life taken a turn for the worse, plunging her into trouble? It all began with Pei Ming's bold confession and his subsequent slander in front of the entire school.

Depression, the death of her grandparents in a car accident, her father's affair, the arrival of a mistress, her mother's suicide by swallowing sleeping pills, being driven out of the family by Kong Liji, one incident after another started from that moment.

The misfortunes of her past life started on that day.

The first step was to ruin her reputation, plunging her into depression.

The second step was the sudden departure of her grandparents, leaving her and her mother in deep sorrow. The double blow exhausted them both mentally and emotionally.

The third step was her father's infidelity and betrayal, shattering the illusion of happiness and subjecting the already grieving mother and daughter to a double blow.

The fourth step was her mother's death, leaving her alone and plunging her into hatred and agony.

The fifth step was her father heartlessly abandoning her, taking away all the family's wealth, turning her from a pampered girl of the heavens into a vulnerable orphan. Falling from heaven to hell, the gap was unbearable for an ordinary person, let alone the constant ridicule and oppression from friends and relatives.

Looking back at the trajectory of her past life, Ren Ran felt a chill. Those hands hidden in the darkness had meticulously planned each step, gradually destroying her spirit and plunging her into endless pain, exhaustion, and humiliation.

She had initially thought that Pei Ming simply wanted to eliminate her completely, but now it seemed that things were far from being as simple as she had imagined.

Pei Ming and Xu Li were key players in this scheme.

Having been reborn, she inadvertently disrupted their first step.

The mastermind behind the scenes would undoubtedly continue their actions.

Ren Ran recounted the incidents she had encountered at school to Qing Xuan, leaving out the subsequent events that had not yet occurred. The matter of her rebirth was something she couldn't reveal to others.

Qing Xuan nodded. "Since you have disrupted their plans, the designer will certainly not give up easily."

"Qing Xuan, I would like to ask for your help."

Qing Xuan hesitated. "Well..."

"Master Qing Xuan, the person who can orchestrate such a grand scheme must have many means at their disposal. Even though I managed to evade their first attempt, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to escape the second or third. I humbly request your assistance in identifying the mastermind. As for the matter of compensation, as long as I can provide it, I will not hesitate."

After a brief contemplation, Qing Xuan said, "We are destined to meet. Since you have encountered me, I will take care of this matter."

"Thank you," Ren Ran said joyfully.

The previous life's kind-heartedness of Master Qing Xuan still remained in this life. She couldn't go wrong by seeking his help.

The next day, Qing Xuan prepared a package and accompanied the two of them down Taihe Mountain, returning to Hai City.

Ren Ran arranged for Qing Xuan to stay in a spacious 500-square-meter apartment in the city center. It was a birthday gift from her late grandfather for her eighteenth birthday.

Before their return, Ren Ran had the apartment cleaned by a cleaning service and prepared daily necessities so that Qing Xuan could move in directly.

After settling Qing Xuan, Ren Ran returned home.

Returning home, Ren Ran still didn't see her mother. She asked the housekeeper and found out that her mother was upstairs, so she went straight up.

"Mom."

Pushing open the door, Ren Ran's mother hurriedly put something into a drawer.

"What is it?"

"Nothing."

Ren Ran had sharp eyes and immediately noticed that the thing was a lipstick. If she wasn't mistaken, it was the one her mother had put under her father's seat in the car.

Since her mother didn't say anything, Ren Ran pretended not to know anything.

Her mother would eventually come to her senses.

When Kong Liji returned home, he sensed that something was off about his wife's demeanor. He looked at his daughter.

"Ranran, did you upset your mother?"

"I didn't." Ren Ran stared, looking displeased. "Dad, please don't wrongly accuse me."

Suddenly, Kong Liji felt a pain in his shoulder as his wife fiercely punched him.

"Wife, what's gotten into you?"

"Come with me."

Ren Suya got up and headed towards the study.

Kong Liji was completely puzzled but followed her upstairs. After closing the door, Ren Suya stared directly at him.

"Wife, what's the matter?"

Ren Suya said in a deep voice, "Liji, how have I treated you all these years?"

"Very well."

"If one day you no longer love me, please tell me directly. Don't let me become a fool, can you do that?"

This was the first time Kong Liji saw Ren Suya so serious and indifferent. He felt a sudden panic in his heart, took a couple of steps forward, wanting to grab her hand, but she easily avoided him.

"Wife, how could I not love you? Did you hear something bad?" Kong Liji's heart tightened, and he tentatively asked.

Ren Suya looked at him, a trace of disappointment flickering deep in her eyes. "No, it's just that when I saw Mrs. Lin's appearance, I felt sad."

Mrs. Lin was considered a friend of Ren Suya's. Recently, her husband had an affair, and the mistress forced her way into the family, even going as far as physically assaulting her, making her a laughingstock in their social circle.

Now, the couple was in the midst of a messy divorce.

Upon hearing this, Kong Liji breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. "Mrs. Lin is Mrs. Lin, and I am me. I am not like them."

"Suya, do you really think I would betray you?"

"I swear to the heavens that if I betray you, I won't have a good death." Kong Liji raised his hand to take an oath, demonstrating his loyalty.

He reached out to embrace her, and Ren Suya smelled his scent, a familiar fragrance, but for some reason, she always felt the scent of another woman's perfume on his shirt.

The thought of him embracing another woman made her feel disgusted.

Ren Suya pushed him away. "Tonight, you sleep outside."

"Wife, what's wrong with you again?" Kong Liji wanted to hold her but was pushed away.

"Enough! I don't want to see any males right now."

"Alright, alright, I'll go out. Don't be angry. If you get ill from anger, I'll be distressed." Kong Liji indulgently complied with his wife's unreasonable behavior.

The next day, Ren Ran saw her father coming out of the neighboring guest room, and she understood what had happened.

It seemed that the marks she had left on him had been effective.

Once upon a time, it was unimaginable for Mother to drive Father away to sleep. But now, with the recent turn of events, it became evident that Mother's trust in him was gradually crumbling. The moment it shatters into pieces will mark Mother's rebirth.

During the morning break at school, Qing Xuan came looking for her.

They sat beneath a tree in the back mountains of the campus, and she took out the amulet that her aunt had given her earlier.

"Daoist Qing Xuan, please take a look at this amulet and see if there's anything wrong with it."

Since those people had meddled in her life, it was likely that the magical artifact affecting her luck was also in her vicinity. Unless she found this object, she wouldn't be able to find peace of mind.

Qing Xuan examined it carefully and broke open the protective casing of the amulet, revealing a hollow interior with a yellow talisman inside.

He picked up the talisman and scrutinized it, occasionally sniffing at it with his nose. There was a faint smell of blood emanating from it.

This yellow talisman was drawn with the fresh blood of an unjustly deceased person, naturally tainted with grievance.
