After Ning Hong got involved with Yun Fanghai, she quickly grasped Yun Fanghai's attitude towards Yun Lianmeng and Yun Ruichu.
Naturally, she knew how to make her choice.
Even though she was an outsider, she naturally sided with Yun Ruichu and Yun Fanghai, unanimously excluding Yun Lianmeng.
Yun Lianmeng had been more outstanding than the spoiled Yun Ruichu since childhood, but Yun Fanghai never gave her a second look. In fact, he could even be said to detest her.
However, after all, Yun Lianmeng had his blood in her veins.
Yun Fanghai still allowed her to go to school.
It was just that once she turned eighteen, if she wanted to continue her studies, she had to rely on herself.
Yun Fanghai thought that he had done all he could.
Yun Fanghai transferred all his hatred for Yun Qi onto Yun Lianmeng.
Although Yun Lianmeng was the eldest daughter in this family, she was even less noticeable than the servants.
But Yun Lianmeng was ambitious. She was admitted to a university abroad and earned her living expenses through her own efforts. It seemed that everything was moving in a positive direction.
Yun Lianmeng was looking forward to her college life and a new chapter in her life, away from this family.
Unexpectedly, just two days before Yun Lianmeng was about to go abroad,
Yun Ruichu accidentally learned that her mother, Liu Yi, had been dragged to her death by Yun Lianmeng's mother.
The already domineering Yun Ruichu was filled with anger and hatred. She took out all her hatred on Yun Lianmeng, who knew nothing about it.
All Yun Ruichu knew was that she wanted Yun Lianmeng to be buried with her mother.
Ning Hong was good at reading people's expressions. After learning about Yun Ruichu's thoughts, she didn't try to stop her.
She only saw the benefits for herself in this matter.
If she wanted to enter the Yun family, the first thing she had to do was to win over Yun Ruichu and gain her approval. Then, entering the Yun family would be an easy task.
Ning Hong naturally knew Yun Ruichu's status in Yun Fanghai's heart.
So, Ning Hong chose to help Yun Ruichu do evil.
The newly - adult Yun Lianmeng was too innocent and naive to understand all the scheming. How could she deal with two people who were plotting against her?
When Ning Hong first came to the Yun family, she still maintained her image as a kind mother. She treated Yun Lianmeng badly secretly.
She chose the grandmother's house of Ning Yitao as the place to dump the body.
That village was not only remote, but the people there were also very strange.
They were not as united as people in typical backward villages. Instead, they were more like city dwellers.
Even though they had lived there for generations, they didn't interfere with others in the village. They didn't follow the principle of helping each other.
Ning Hong only went there a few times and never went again because the place was too eerie.
The first time she went, she saw a child in the village being chased by a dog.
There were other villagers around, but they didn't even spare a glance at the crying child.
Finally, the dog caught up with the child. The dog went crazy, pounced on the child and bit desperately. Blood was flying everywhere.
The child's cries were heart - rending and made people tremble.
Ning Hong had never seen such a scene before. She was too scared to step forward and could only watch the child being bitten to death.
The villagers standing beside all chose to be onlookers.
They were all busy with their own things, pretending not to see the child. Some were splashing water, some were feeding chickens, and some were coaxing children.
It seemed that they couldn't even see the child being bitten by the dog.
But after the child completely stopped making a sound, they all stopped what they were doing, stood up, and looked in the direction where the child died.
They didn't do anything. They just stood there, looking, always looking.
Quietly watching the mad dog tearing at the child's body, they were waiting, waiting for the child to be completely dead.
Ning Hong was so frightened by this eerie atmosphere that she didn't dare to move.
Ning Hong covered her mouth and stood aside. She was afraid that she would make a sound. All she wanted to do was to make herself less noticeable so as not to be discovered by these strange villagers.
If someone said that those villagers had long wanted to kill her, Ning Hong would believe it without hesitation.
Why were they so cold - blooded?
This was the only thought in Ning Hong's mind.
There was a faint smell of blood in the air.
Then a gust of wind blew in Ning Hong's direction.
After smelling such a strong smell of blood, she looked up and saw the child's intestines being pulled out by the mad dog and left there bloodily.
Ning Hong could no longer maintain her stiff posture. Her stomach churned involuntarily.
She lowered her head and vomited uncontrollably.
The sound of her vomiting attracted the attention of the surrounding villagers.
The villagers all looked in Ning Hong's direction.
Ning Hong had to overcome her psychological barrier and hold back the urge to vomit while not daring to turn around.
She finally understood what it felt like to have a sense of unease.
Just when Ning Hong didn't know what to do, her highly vigilant nerves picked up the rustling sound of footsteps behind her.
The alarm bell in her heart rang loudly.
She didn't know what to do.
She could only listen to the footsteps getting closer and closer.
Ning Hong's legs went weak.
But she didn't dare to turn around.
She keenly heard another set of footsteps.
Then the footsteps behind her disappeared.
From the corner of her eye, Ning Hong saw that the villagers were no longer paying attention to her but were walking towards the child.
Only then did Ning Hong dare to let out a sigh of relief.
She summoned up the courage to turn around.
As she expected, the villagers were all walking towards the child.
Seeing that their attention was no longer on her, Ning Hong ran away in a hurry.
She didn't care what the final fate of the child was.
All Ning Hong knew was that she had to run, run quickly.
During her subsequent visits, Ning Hong roughly figured out the rules of survival and interaction in this village.
Here, no matter what happened, even if it was murder or arson, the passing villagers would never interfere.
They maintained the strange balance that had been passed down in the village.
This was why Ning Hong thought of this village as the first place to dump Yun Lianmeng's body when she planned to kill her.
Ning Hong lured Yun Lianmeng to this village.
Yun Ruichu, who had been waiting nearby, stepped on the accelerator to the floor. Her face was filled with madness.
She stared fixedly at Yun Lianmeng's figure and roared,
"Die, Yun Lianmeng! You're going to pay for your crime!"
By the time Yun Lianmeng realized what was happening, she could only watch the car rushing towards her. She had no way to dodge it.
She was knocked into the air by Yun Ruichu. Yun Lianmeng's mind went blank. All she felt was pain, excruciating pain.
She didn't know why, even though she had always been tolerant and submissive, she still ended up like this.
Yun Lianmeng's limbs were twisted strangely as she lay on the ground. Blood spread beneath her, and a large amount of blood gushed out of her mouth.
Yun Lianmeng refused to close her eyes. She just stared, watching Yun Ruichu's crazy smile and Ning Hong fawningly following behind.
It was really ridiculous.
Yun Lianmeng's tears dripped into the thick blood beneath her.
Tears of unwillingness and regret.
Seeing that Yun Lianmeng was still alive,
Yun Ruichu rushed over and stomped hard on Yun Lianmeng's head several times.
"Stop looking at me! You filthy thing! How dare you look at me with your dirty eyes! You're so disgusting!"
Yun Lianmeng died with her eyes wide open.
Ning Hong dumped Yun Lianmeng's body into a gully.
Ning Hong knew that it didn't matter if the body was found. The villagers would only help dispose of the body. It was their tradition.
After this incident, the relationship between Yun Ruichu and Ning Hong took a big step forward. This was also the most crucial step for Ning Hong to enter the Yun family.
