Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 1108: Chapter 1018: Those Years 28

Wen Shuangshuang carried a large backpack, and despite being in this world for some time, her body had been further enhanced by her, although the stored energy wasn’t much, the enhancement level was enough for her to possess the strength of a thousand pounds.

With such great strength, and although Wen Shuangshuang hadn’t practiced Martial Arts in this life, her familiarity with martial moves made her quite formidable in battle.

It’s said that even if there were lions and tigers in the mountains, Wen Shuangshuang wouldn’t be afraid, which is why she boldly headed deeper into the forest this time.

The production team didn’t dare venture easily into the deep mountains, fearing wild beasts. Moreover, because it’s seldom visited, there were many treasures and some precious herbs, though herbs can’t be sold now, and Wen Shuangshuang didn’t intend to pick them.

She just wanted to gather some food to improve her living conditions.

The first thing Wen Shuangshuang did when she entered the mountains was to pick the wild mushrooms she had been eyeing for a while.

Then Wen Shuangshuang recalled the location where mushrooms grew that she noted down last time she went mushroom picking, and decided to check if new mushrooms had sprouted.

Wen Shuangshuang’s current location was somewhat uphill, while the mushroom patch was closer to the edge of the mountain, which meant she had to head down.

Not minding to take a few more steps, she cheerfully walked down the mountain, catching a plump wild chicken on the way.

Wen Shuangshuang caught the wild chicken with minimal effort, probably because it was too fat as its movements were extremely slow.

She found it strange how this chicken got so fat, having never seen such a chubby wild chicken before.

Throwing the chicken into her backpack, Wen Shuangshuang pondered how to cook such a plump chicken and thought if she harvested a lot of mushrooms, she wouldn’t need to go deep into the mountains to return with a full load.

While she was planning, she heard vague voices ahead, two people, a man and a woman.

Wen Shuangshuang recognized both voices, especially the woman’s, as she’d been annoyed by it for several days in the past.

The woman’s voice belonged to Lin Qianqian, and the man’s voice was none other than Lin Laoer’s.

Listening more closely, Lin Qianqian and Lin Laoer seemed to be arguing, the voices fluctuated so it was hard to catch everything.

Wen Shuangshuang held her breath and carefully approached the direction of the voices, soon seeing Lin Qianqian and Lin Laoer standing under a big tree.

Initially, Wen Shuangshuang hadn’t planned to bother with them, one being a rogue and the other with malicious intent, she really didn’t want to engage with them.

Just as Wen Shuangshuang intended to bypass them, she heard them seemingly mention her name.

Her heart stirred, figuring whatever scheme Lin Qianqian and Lin Laoer were plotting together, it surely wasn’t anything good, especially with her name mentioned; could they be scheming against her?

Thinking this way, Wen Shuangshuang surveyed the surroundings, then stealthily climbed up a lush tree near the pair, concealing herself entirely within its leafy branches.

Unaware of the third-party eavesdropper nearby, Lin Qianqian and Lin Laoer were engrossed in their argument.

”Last time, the money I gave you wasn’t little, without me you’d have run out of food a while ago. This time, I ask you to do such a small thing and you’re hesitating, if you think the money is too little just say so, I can add more, do you want tickets or cash? Just say it outright.”

Lin Laoer leaned against the tree, his clothes casually worn, buttons undone, exposing his muscular chest.

Opposite him, Lin Qianqian frowned, used to Qu Chengdong’s polished and neat appearance at all times, she couldn’t bear Lin Laoer’s slightly sloppy look.

Lin Laoer didn’t care about Lin Qianqian’s disdainful gaze, rubbing his chest, greed evident in his expression.

”It’s easy enough for you to say, the tasks you asked me to do last time are not the same. The Zhou Meijuan thing was just about getting her reputation tarnished by being seen as ill character.

But what you’re asking me to do to that Wen Shuangshuang is entirely different, you’re asking me to truly assault her and even get caught red-handed.

If I’m not careful, I’ll end up in custody or even facing a bullet, how is this the same nature?

Such a dangerous task and you want to pay Zhou Meijuan’s price, do you think I’m an idiot? I’m telling you, for this task, I want a thousand dollars plus a thousand pounds of grain coupons, otherwise, no deal.”

”You...”

Lin Qianqian had exhausted her persuasion skills with Lin Laoer, yet he kept dodging the subject, refusing to outright agree.

Fed up, Lin Qianqian bluntly laid out her intentions, only to be infuriated by Lin Laoer’s rogue remarks, her chest heaving, fingers pointing at him, shaking in anger.

Once calm enough, she retorted angrily: ”You’re just extorting, driven insane by greed, where should I get a thousand dollars and a thousand pounds of grain coupons for you! You’re simply making things impossible for me.”

Lin Qianqian was right, Lin Laoer was deliberately making things difficult, and his intention was to dissuade her from the request she’d just made.

Previously, Lin Qianqian’s demands were simpler, asking him to wait in the mountains to catch Zhou Meijuan, strip her to the point of humiliation, ensuring she was embarrassed in front of people, ruining her reputation so she’d never have the face to approach Qu Chengdong again.

Although morally reprehensible, it didn’t physically harm Zhou Meijuan, reducing the likelihood of her fighting fiercely back, lessening the trouble.

Furthermore, Lin Qianqian was the cherished daughter of Lin Cheng’an, the team leader, who despite not being a major official, could easily suppress a woman like Zhou Meijuan whose reputation was already tarnished in the village.

Hence, for money’s sake, Lin Laoer consented to Lin Qianqian’s plan, staging a scenario that did as she hoped, ruining Zhou Meijuan’s reputation.

But this time, Lin Qianqian’s strategy against Wen Shuangshuang was far nastier than against Zhou Meijuan.

Perhaps tarnishing someone’s reputation had given Lin Qianqian a taste for it, this time she demanded Lin Laoer truly violate Wen Shuangshuang, and she’d lead everyone to catch them in the act.
