Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder in the Entertainment Circle-Chapter 596: Republic Divorced Wife Cannon Fodder (10)
Chapter 596: Republic Divorced Wife Cannon Fodder (10)
Luo Ning had already thought of a way out when she was in the Huo Family.
She smiled and countered, "Sister, what do you think about me temporarily leaving Beicheng?"
Beicheng was the territory of both the Huo Family and the Luo Family, which greatly restricted what she could do.
The key was that she had spent the past twenty years either in the inner courtyards of the Luo Family or the Huo Family, so a sudden change in her character could still be attributed to the shock of her divorce.
But how could she explain suddenly knowing so much?
Her original self wanted the Huo Family, Luo Family, Huo Sichen, and Ran Yinyin to regret, so she couldn’t just be a simple divorced woman after her separation.
The best choice was to leave temporarily; that way, all changes could be accounted for.
Luo Jun was stunned at first, but after some deep thought, she said, "That might indeed be a solution."
"Where do you plan to go? I’ll help you arrange it."
After another thought, she added, "Or maybe I’ll go with you."
Apart from Grandma and mother, her only relative at her maternal home was her younger sister.
Her mother, too, was an old-fashioned woman of the inner courtyards, with little decisiveness to protect her younger sister.
Being a big sister is like being a mother, and her sister had just finalized her divorce; she suddenly wanted to stay with her sister.
Luo Ning was startled as well, clearly not expecting her sister to actually say she would accompany her.
"Can you really leave Beicheng?"
Although her sister had a strong and fierce personality, she lacked survival skills; her current expenses were covered by her previous dowry, as well as subsidies from Grandma and mother.
In the long run, she would definitely be economically strangled by the Luo family.
Moreover, Luo Ning knew that although her sister forcefully took her two children away, she still had to suffer regular harassment from her in-laws.
Those people were always looking for an opportunity to take the children back.
In that past life, her sister tried to help her avenge by getting involved with the Northern President’s secretary.
But she was betrayed, and her sister’s in-laws took the opportunity to back-stab her, leading to her collapse and death, and the children were taken back by that family.
With a stepmother came a stepfather, and the so-called care from the grandparents was limited; neither child grew up and both died one after another.
To ensure her sister’s happiness and well-being, she naturally had to ensure that the two children grew up safely.
Leaving with her was indeed a good choice.
Luo Jun chuckled, "Truth be told, I have no lingering feelings for Beicheng."
"When I first got divorced, I actually thought about taking the children and living somewhere else."
"It was just that I couldn’t bear to leave Grandma, mother, and you."
At that time, surrounded by gossip and with her in-laws causing trouble and harassing her daily to take the children back, she often considered leaving.
Luo Ning reached out and held her sister’s hand, "Then come with me and leave."
"We’ll go out for two or three years, and when we have the capital to contend with the Huo Family, we’ll come back and take Grandma and Mother to live with us."
For her, two or three years was enough time.
Grandma and mother were not living happily in the Luo family.
Grandma and Old Master Luo’s previous wife were half-sisters, and at the last minute, that woman rushed to discuss with the family and insisted on Grandma remarrying Old Master Luo to secure the status of the two children.
Grandma’s family did not value her, but only as a tool for continuing to marry into the Luo family.
That’s why Old Master Luo did not value or love her either.
Her mother’s family had fallen into decline, with her parents and brothers struggling to make ends meet, unable to support her in making decisions.
So, Luo Ning had already planned to take them out to live together when the timing was right upon her return.
Luo Jun felt that her sister was a bit naive; how could it be possible to have the capital to contend with the Huo Family in just two or three years?
But she didn’t have the heart to say it and crush her sister’s spirits; her confidently motivated younger sister was a good thing now.
"So where do you suggest we go?" she decided to accompany her sister in leaving, which would conveniently keep them away from the annoying in-laws.
Her daughter was taken back to live with her in-laws every month, but always returned unhappy.
She couldn’t stop the other party from taking the child back, after all, it was agreed upon during the divorce that the in-laws, missing the child, could take him to live with them for a few days.
Having some peace and quiet would be good for the child.
Luo Ning replied, "Xiang Island!"
Originally, she had been preparing to go abroad and then look for an opportunity to apply to a foreign university.
But now that her sister planned to take the child along, she had changed her mind.
The Xiang University there was very good, and the economy was much more developed than on the mainland, the opportunities for development and going abroad were almost the same.
The key was that over there, all were Huaxia people, her sister and the children would be able to adapt much faster.
Luo Jun was astonished, "Ah, going that far?"
Luo Ning replied, "Only by going to Xiang Island can we get out of the reach of the Huo Family’s hands."
After all, she had the keys and the combination to a bank safety deposit box.
The Huo Family wouldn’t let her go, not just because they wanted to save face.
"We’ll first go to Guang City, then from there sneak onto a ship to Xiang Island without letting the Huo family trace us."
The Southern Government still existed in the south.
The south was the Lu Family’s territory, and the Lu Family and the Huo Family had always been at odds, so it wasn’t difficult for them to slip through the Huo Family’s surveillance and secretly flee to Xiang Island.
"Sister, once you’re in Xiang Island, you’ll be able to completely escape from the harassment of your husband’s family, and start a new and meaningful life," Luo Ning added.
Luo Jun was a decisive person, she thought it over carefully and gritted her teeth, "Okay, let’s go to Xiang Island."
"Then we have to go to Guang City first."
"We’ll have to take the train, but surely both the Huo Family and my husband’s family will try to stop us."
Her husband’s family had always kept an eye on her, fearing she would take the children and leave Beicheng.
The Huo Family certainly wouldn’t let her sister go either.
Luo Ning said with a smile, "Leave it to me." freёnovelkiss.com
"Sister, just get everything ready in the next few days; we’ll leave in a week."
Luo Jun, seeing her sister’s full confidence, chose to trust her, "Okay!"
After that, Luo Ning visited her sister’s two children, then went out for a bit.
In her storage space, she had collected men’s clothing, wigs, and makeup.
So she disguised herself as a man and went out the back to inquire about the underworld forces in Beicheng.
To leave Beicheng, one had to bribe the local gangs, which even Commander Huo feared and was unable to fully control.
After learning the specifics, Luo Ning set her sights on one of them.
And had her first encounter with that person.
Night fell, and when Luo Ning returned, she found many people guarding the main entrance and the monitors up front.
Without guessing, it was certainly the Huo family people.
Therefore, she directly chose a hidden corner to climb over the wall and enter.
Luo Jun had been worried the whole time, now sitting in the yard waiting.
Seeing a shadow climb over the wall, she was startled and was about to scream when she heard her sister’s voice.
"It’s me!"
Luo Jun’s eyes widened at Luo Ning, "You can climb walls?"
Her sister had never done such a thing from childhood until now, always gentle and well-behaved.
Luo Ning explained with a smile, "During those four years when Huo Sichen left, I was alone in the back yard, bored, and learned quite a few things."
"I was too obedient before, which is why I was abandoned; from now on, I just want to be a free and unrestrained person."
Her sister didn’t know about her life in the Huo Family’s back yard, so it was an excuse she could use.
As expected, Luo Jun nodded, "That’s true, from now on, do whatever you want."
Her sister had always been too obedient, which is why she confined herself, but now a vibrant sister was very good.
