Chapter 22

Trouble in the Graveyard

“Your plan is…” Liao Nai was a little uneasy but excited.

Liao Ning and Liao Nai’s goal was very clear. They would first bid farewell to Mr. Liao, then go to Venus to participate in the first round of the Interstellar Food Competition.

Early in the morning, Liao Ning led Liao Nai to the cemetery in Youlai Town.

Liao Nai held her aunt’s hand in one hand and the white cat in the other.

Youlai Town was where Liao Nai had lived for five years. Looking at the town that was covered in snow, for the first time, Liao Nai felt that this road seemed so unfamiliar.

For the sake of his family, Mr. Liao had obtained the highest military merits in the interstellar world. The reward he received was enough to help the Liao family rise again.

However, his plans were ruined in the end because he met the wrong person.

Cui Yin was Liao Nai’s mother. At first, they were very loving, but three years ago, Mr. Liao contracted a strange illness that started with his limbs becoming stiff. After that, Cui Yin gradually revealed her true colors.

She mistreated Liao Nai and even squandered the money that was supposed to treat Mr. Liao’s illness.

Because Liao Nai was young, he couldn’t do anything. He watched helplessly as the tree that had been supporting his growth gradually aged and fell. until the tree trunk was sawn off by ants and finally buried in the soil.

At this moment, Mr. Liao’s tombstone was covered in snow, and it wasn’t as clean as that of other people.

Liao Ning used a broom to sweep the snow on the tombstone bit by bit.

In this regard, humans on Blue Planet continued the Earth era’s solemnity and respect towards the deceased.

“Brother, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Xiaonai. In the future, I’ll bring him to visit your grave every year.” Liao Ning exhaled white mist and her heavy clothing made her movements seem a little clumsy.

Liao Nai hugged the white cat quietly as he mourned.

The white cat stuck its head out and looked at the cemetery.

After the mourning, the two of them planned to return to the spacecraft and set off.

However, as soon as she walked out, someone came looking for trouble. Fortunately, Liao Ning reacted in time and pulled Liao Nai away.

They glanced at the dried fish on the ground.

“It’s her. Liao Ning is the heir of the Liao Corporation!”

The woman’s angry shout made Liao Ning and Liao Nai turn around at the same time.

Cui Yin brought over a group of women and surrounded them.

“What do you want to do now?” Liao Ning couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath on Cui Yin.

Cui Yin crossed her arms and said, “This dried fish came from your live-stream. You want to shirk responsibility for it?”

“Yes, it’s her dried fish. It made my child suffer from diarrhea for three days in a row and my child kept complaining of pain.” A woman behind Cui Yin hugged a child who was sucking on his fingers.

The child blinked innocently and he seemed fine.

Liao Ning snorted. “If he had been in pain for three days after eating my dried fish, how can he still be standing here? I didn’t see any smoke coming from your ancestral grave just now, but your child has been cured already?”

The woman looked embarrassed.

She was a ruthless person, so seeing that the child didn’t react, she beat him until he cried. “Everyone can see that her dried fish made my child cry.”

“It’s because you beat him just now!” Liao Nai stood up and retorted.

“What do you know? Ask the people around me if I hit him or not,” the woman shouted.

The others shook their heads in denial.

They were clearly trying to extort them!

Cui Yin also looked at them smugly. She had turned on the live-stream, but she didn’t record the scene of the woman hitting her child.

[Isn’t this the streamer who has been very popular recently?]

[It’s really her. I’ll spread the word!]

[Why did Liao Ning appear in someone else’s live-stream?]

As more comments appeared, the number of people in the live-stream also increased. When Cui Yin saw this, she quickly said, “Everyone, come and take a look at this evil-hearted woman. She sold dried fish that gave a child food poisoning!”

[Sold? Didn’t Liao Ning say that she doesn’t sell dried fish?]

[You’re the one who got it wrong.]

“How could I be wrong? She was the one who sold the dried fish produced by the Liao Corporation recently!” Cui Yin glared.

[Is there a Liao Corporation on Blue Planet?]

[Wait, the background behind the blogger is a cemetery!]

[Hahaha, that child’s crying is so fake. The cub is much cuter.]

Cui Yin was stunned. Why were the comments different from what she had expected?

She had to slander Liao Ning until her reputation was ruined. If she didn’t get the job done, she wouldn’t be able to explain it to her sugar daddy…

She didn’t want to return the money she had received!
