Chapter 82: Chapter 80: Down and Out All the Way (Second Update)_1
In a certain park.
Liu Qianqian shouted angrily, "Wu Hui, come out!"
Whoosh—
As her voice fell, a black figure appeared in front of Liu Qianqian, bowing respectfully and speaking, "Why must the young miss be so agitated?"
"You're going to kill him!" Liu Qianqian roared furiously.
"As you have seen, indeed," Wu Hui nodded and said.
"Do I need to say it again! If you dare to kill him, I will take your life once I return to the family!"
As she spoke, Liu Qianqian drew out the longsword Wu Hui carried, placed it directly against Wu Hui's neck, and with bloodlust flickering in her eyes, she continued, "I really want to kill you right now!"
Wu Hui didn't dodge or flinch, saying emotionlessly, "Firstly, if I die, certain people will capture you. To increase their Cultivation Level, they are capable of doing anything to you."
"You're already going to strike him down! I don't care about that!"
With the longsword in her hand, Liu Qianqian chopped towards her neck.
Hum—
Wu Hui's body was enveloped in a layer of white True Qi, and as the longsword struck the white True Qi, it was deflected and thrown out, buzzing loudly.
Wu Hui, still expressionless, said, "Secondly, young miss, you don't have the strength to kill me."
Liu Qianqian's eyes reddened, and she rushed to pick up the longsword from the ground, bit her silver teeth, and made a ten centimeter cut on her own arm, blood spurting out continuously.
Wu Hui immediately snatched the longsword from her hands with a flicker, her expression turning frantic.
Liu Qianqian looked at her very seriously and said, "I'm telling you, if you dare to have any ill thoughts about him next time, I'll slit my throat directly! If he died and you could have saved him but didn't, I'll just go to my death! I want to see how the Liu Family will deal with you then!"
"Young miss! Next time I definitely won't harbor any intention to kill that person! I promise!"
Saying this, Wu Hui immediately used True Qi to carry Liu Qianqian and flew towards the hospital.
"You can force him to not be with me, but if you dare to kill him, I will not live in this world..."
"I understand, it was my fault. There will be no next time, please believe me." Wu Hui said earnestly.
------
On the bustling streets of Linyang City, filled with a constant stream of cars and people.
A young woman in denim shorts and a white short-sleeve shirt with a sun hat sat on a stone bench by the street, looking downcast.
Her slender legs were curled up, her arms wrapped around her knees, her head bowed, and her black hair draped over her shoulders, covering her face with the sun hat. She was a stark contrast, emotionally low, to the laughing people on the street around her.
Gurgle~
A sound came from her stomach.
"I'm starving..."
Bai Qi rubbed her little belly with a wronged expression, and just the thought of the grievances she had suffered these days made her want to cry.
Her mother had used such a fierce tone to pressure her into marrying someone, a way she had never seen her treat her before.
Unable to bear it, in a fit of anger, she decided to run away from home, determined to fight to the end for her freedom to marry, to find that boy named Fang Ren and tell him she couldn't be with him, she would find another way to make it up to him, and then properly apologize to him.
Of course, she believed that upon seeing her, Fang Ren would definitely not agree to annul the marriage, especially since she was so beautiful. The boy named Fang Ren would surely fall for her and not let go easily...
However, less than half an hour after she left home, she discovered that her bank cards and mobile payment apps, anything that could be used for spending, had been frozen. In a rage, she threw away her mobile phone to prevent her family from tracking her location.
Initially, she wanted to book a flight to Yangming City, but after checking the cash in her pocket, she realized she could only get there by flying on her own Qi.
Later on, while flying on her sword, she suddenly discovered that a Spirit-Dispersing Seal had been cast upon her. She could only continually consume her True Qi and couldn't draw from the energy of heaven and earth, nor could she recover her True Qi by herself.
It turned out her mother had anticipated her running away and had secretly placed the seal on her in advance.
Because she could not recover her True Qi, she had exhausted all her True Qi when she had covered ninety percent of the distance. Subsequently, she used the last three hundred yuan on her to take a high-speed train across a province to get here.
But when she got off the train, she found that she still had more than a hundred li to go to her destination. Too hungry to bear it any longer, she spent the last forty yuan from her train fare to eat a bowl of rice noodles at a roadside stall.
Who would have thought that the vendors near the high-speed train station would be so black-hearted, charging her twenty-four yuan for a bowl that should have cost five!
That nearly made her explode with anger!
She silently made a vow that once she got divorced and returned, she would take her money, buy that store, and catch the unscrupulous shopkeeper, starve him for a day, and then make him watch her eat rice noodles and covet her meal!
But she had more pressing matters to attend to now and had to endure.
```
The sixteen dollars left on her couldn't cover the taxi fare to Yangming City, and out of desperation, she had to walk. On the way, she finally experienced the hard struggles of being without True Qi.
After walking for a whole day, she still hadn't reached Yangming City, and had even bought three bottles of mineral water for one dollar each. As a result, come evening, she didn't have enough money for a hotel and had to make do with a bench in the park.
When she woke up the next day, both of her feet were in pain, and she could barely walk.
After comforting herself a little, she bought a few steamed buns and two bottles of water by the roadside, spending a total of six dollars, and continued on her way to Yangming City.
By the end of the day, she was still thirty li from her destination, and she had spent all her money. She was very hungry, but there was nothing she could do except endure the hunger and spend another night on a park bench.
Upon waking, she had thought she could complete the last thirty li in one day, but she hadn't anticipated that two days of hunger would leave her without the strength to go on after fifteen li.
Looking at the restaurants along the street, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
Under normal circumstances, her status alone would have been enough to scrounge food and drink anywhere, but because of the particular situation she was in, being recognized would mean being quickly captured by her family's people.
So the idea of using the Bai Family's little princess status to freeload was completely out of the question.
But there was no choice, she didn't have True Qi to use, and with her stomach growling, she did the most bizarre thing of her life—she dined and dashed!
As a result… she, the Bai Family's little princess, was caught by the restaurant owner, and she had to work off her debt by cleaning, carrying plates, and washing dishes.
On her first day working off her debt as a waitress, she almost burst into tears—it was unheard of for someone to just grab her and put her to work washing dishes and cleaning…
She nearly couldn't take it and was about to take off her sun hat to let the boss see who she really was, but the thought of her family coming for her stopped her. And, after all, since she had dined and dashed, she felt paying off her debt was only fair.
Just that… it was just too humiliating.
During her days as a waitress, many people were curious about why she didn't show her face, and she was always vigilant against the chance that someone might suddenly come and take off her sun hat.
The boss was quite nice. Knowing that she had no money for food, he allowed her to eat something in the kitchen when she was hungry.
After a week, seeing that she had a good attitude towards work and hadn't stolen anything or run away, he let her leave directly.
After leaving the restaurant, she finally arrived in Yangming City after much hardship.
The moment she set foot on Yangming soil, she almost burst into tears.
However, when she reached Fang Ren's school and saw a construction site in ruins, she did cry.
The fellow she had gone through so much trouble to find had gone to study in the city where she worked because his school had been destroyed!!
She had to return the way she came…
On the way back, she got thirsty and drank some sample beverages at a supermarket, only to be scolded by a store aunty for having no shame, wondering how much she had already drunk…
Walking along the road, and with only two li left to reach the university where that Fang guy was, she stepped into a hole… and twisted her ankle.
All she could do was sit on a roadside stone bench, feeling dejected, thirsty, and hungry, her clothes not having been changed in many days.
And more importantly, her period was due tomorrow! And she didn't bring any sanitary pads!
This was an absolute disaster!
Although Cultivators who reach the Xuanyang realm can subsist without food and women no longer get their periods, her problem was that she hadn't reached the Xuanyang Realm…
Between being caught by the restaurant owner and scolded by the store aunty, the thought made her eyes redden and tears began to swim in her eyes, and her nose started to sniffle.
Pulling out a photo of Fang Ren from her pocket, Bai Qi wiped away her tears in distress and started descending from the stone bench to head towards the school.
"Wait until I find you, you must take me to have delicious food…"
At the bus stop, Fang Ren had been waiting for a bus for over twenty minutes, but taxis passed by full of passengers, and for some unknown reason, not a single bus heading to the university had appeared in that time.
"Forget it, let's walk to the next stop."
Fang Ren didn't want to wait any longer and began to walk to the next bus stop.
"Fang Ren, you jerk… once I find you, you must take me out for a meal, and you'll buy me sanitary pads too, wuu…"
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard a girl's crying behind him.
He paused, surprised she was calling his name.
And not only that, she was calling him a jerk and saying something about buying her sanitary pads?
He turned around instinctively, spotting a girl in denim shorts and a white short-sleeve shirt, wearing a sun hat, crying and mumbling to herself as she walked with a limp, her dirty white shoes showing some peeled off parts.
"Fang Ren, you jerk… wuu… You didn't even leave a phone number… I'll never like you… ah wuu…"
