Chapter 62: They All Died
Before falling asleep, Jiang Yuan saw a video of a dog sent by Ning Jia Nian.
She watched the 12-second video seriously, her lips curved upwards slightly, her white and tender fingertips lightly touched the screen, and she replied: 【 You’ve taken good care of Xiao Zhi. 】
She put down her phone and fell deeply into a dream.
In the dream, she learned that her biological parents were very wealthy, and she abandoned Deng Rui and Jiang Dashan, returning to her biological parents’ side with anticipation, fantasizing about becoming a true socialite.
However, her biological parents didn’t think highly of her at all, only bringing back their biological bloodline due to pressure from the older generation.
They even regretted bringing her home, so full of money, fame, and vulgarity.
Her biological parents only had eyes for their carefully nurtured adopted daughter.
Her biological older brother never treated her as a sister.
Her biological aunt claimed to only have one niece.
When Fu Jinxing began to take revenge on her, they eagerly distanced themselves, afraid of being implicated.
Deng Rui and Jiang Dashan, who were abandoned by her, begged Fu Jinxing, hoping he would show mercy…
Jiang Yuan suddenly woke up from her dream.
The light around her was dim. She sat up, raised her hand to cover her rapidly beating heart, and gasped, a fine bead of sweat seeping out on her forehead.
“Yuan Yuan,” Jiang Die called her softly, “Did you have a nightmare?”
Jiang Yuan slightly turned her head to look at her, “Sister, did I disturb you?”
“No, I just woke up,” Jiang Die sat up, “I’ll get you a glass of water.”
“No need,” Jiang Yuan grabbed her hand, “You go back to sleep, I’ll get it myself.”
Jiang Die lay back down after watching her leave the room. However, she waited for a long time and didn’t see her return. Just as she was hesitating whether to go out and check, the phone by her bedside suddenly vibrated.
Thinking it was from Jiang Yuan, Jiang Die reached out and felt for her phone, only to see a text message from an unknown number: 【 Jiang Die, Jiang Yuan really hates you, she wishes you would die immediately. 】
She frowned slightly and typed a few words to send back: 【 Who are you? 】
If she remembered correctly, it was this number that had previously informed her that Jiang Yuan had lost Momo.
The screen dimmed several times, but Jiang Die did not receive a reply from the other party.
As the morning light grew, Deng Rui emerged from her room, yawning. Seeing Jiang Yuan lying on the sofa in the living room, she was startled, “Did you sleep here last night?”
“No,” Jiang Yuan shifted slightly, “I couldn’t sleep this morning, so I was thinking here.”
Deng Rui sat at her feet, placed her hand on Jiang Yuan, and asked curiously, “Thinking about what?”
Jiang Yuan said with a smile, “I was thinking about how to tell you that we can move to the East Bank Villa soon.”
“East Bank Villa?” Deng Rui murmured a few times, and after realizing what place it was, she said annoyed, “You’re joking around with your mom again! If I ever have the chance to live in the East Bank Villa, I’ll laugh in my dreams!”
Jiang Yuan: “I’m serious.”
Deng Rui didn’t take it to heart and yawned again, “I’m going to make breakfast.”
She stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
Jiang Yuan stared at her back, her brows slightly furrowed, and stood up to follow her, “Ms. Deng, I’m serious, we can live in a big villa, we don’t have to squeeze into this small house every day.”
Deng Rui turned to look at her and raised her hand to touch her forehead, “You don’t have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?”
Jiang Yuan: “…”
She looked helpless, then suddenly thought of something and turned to go back to the room.
Deng Rui began to knead dough, and Jiang Yuan walked up to her holding a red property certificate, “Mom, look at this…”
Deng Rui frowned and asked, “Why did you take my property certificate?”
“This one is mine,” Jiang Yuan opened it and showed her the inside, “Look, it’s written in my name, and the address is East Bank Villa…”
Deng Rui rolled her eyes at her, “You even went to get a fake property certificate to tease me?”
Jiang Yuan: “…”
After breakfast, Jiang Die was washing dishes in the kitchen when she suddenly saw a mouse on the guardrail of the windowsill.
She paused for a moment, pushed the mosquito net open a crack, “Hello, are you here to see Yuan Yuan?”
Little Mouse Jack on the guardrail nodded its head.
Seeing it nod, Jiang Die said, “Wait a moment, I’ll go get Yuan Yuan.”
She walked out of the kitchen and found Jiang Yuan in the restroom, knocking on the door to tell her, “Yuan Yuan, a mouse is looking for you.”
Jiang Yuan opened the door, “Sister, where is it?”
“In the kitchen.”
“Jack?” Jiang Yuan found Jack in the kitchen and extended her palm towards it, “What happened?”
Jiang Die placed a piece of kitchen paper on Jiang Yuan’s palm.
Little Mouse Jack jumped onto the kitchen paper and squeaked anxiously, “Yuan Yuan, something’s wrong, so many mice are dead!”
“What’s going on?” Jiang Yuan asked worriedly, her delicate eyebrows furrowed.
Little Mouse Jack squeaked sadly, “Yuan Yuan, Mouse doesn’t know, but so many of Mouse’s brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts are dead.”
“How did they die?”
“They died inexplicably. Some of them just fell asleep and never woke up.”
Hearing this, Jiang Yuan suddenly thought of a possibility, “Where have these dead mice been foraging recently?”
Little Mouse Jack: “Around here, and Mouse also saw several cats and dogs that died.”
Jiang Yuan’s expression turned solemn as she exhorted, “Notify your family and friends, don’t go out to find food by yourselves recently, I will prepare it for you.”
She took some food from home and went out with Little Mouse Jack to deliver the food to their nest.
Jiang Yuan walked around the vicinity a few times and discovered many blue pellets, especially in the residential community’s flower beds.
She searched on Taobao, and it was just as she had suspected.
Rat poison!
The next second, Jiang Yuan saw a calico cat scurrying around the edge of the flower bed, seemingly looking for something to eat.
“There’s rat poison there, you can’t eat it,” she quickly warned.
The calico cat heard the sound, turned its head, and meowed at her, “Is the rat poison for killing mice?”
“Yes, but cats will also die if they accidentally eat it,” Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, suddenly thinking of something.
Putting so much rat poison, was it meant to kill mice or something else?
The calico cat trembled all over, “So scary! Will they die? Will Ah Hua die?”
Jiang Yuan: “Did Ah Hua eat these?”
The calico cat nodded, “Ah Hua ate these, and told the cat there was delicious food here, that’s why the cat came.”
“Where is Ah Hua? Can you take me to find it?” Jiang Yuan asked.
The calico cat: “Yes.”
Jiang Yuan followed the calico cat towards the back gate of the residential community.
She thought of something, took out her phone, and called home, “Don’t let Lan Mei, Xi Xi, and Xiao Bai go downstairs for the next few days, someone has put out rat poison.”
Jiang Yuan followed the calico cat out the back gate of the residential community and walked for a while.
The calico cat stopped at an eight-story residential building and turned back to say, “The cat and Ah Hua live here.”
A weak orange cat was lying on a torn cushion.
Jiang Yuan wanted to take it to the pet hospital for emergency treatment, but it was too late.
Before the orange cat closed its eyes, it only said one thing: “That fat human actually wanted to kill the cat.”
