Chapter 364: Bribe
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Dave was planning to fight with Le Wan and the others when he woke up today, but Serena stopped him and told him that he had to teach Emma a lesson. Therefore, Dave suppressed his anger and cooperated with Serena. He watched as the two of them walked toward the church and whispered,
“Just you wait. It’s your turn next.”
He lowered his head and sent a text message. When Serena received the message, she immediately said to Emma,
“I just received a message from my classmate. He said that Zhai Jing and Le Wan went to the lakeside. Let’s hurry over now.”
Emma didn’t have time to change her clothes after hearing that. She hurriedly walked towards the lakeside. However, when they rushed to the riverside, they learned from their classmates that Le Wan and Zhai Jing had gone to the church.
Emma was instantly amused when she heard that. She had originally wanted to find an excuse to trick the two of them into going to the church. Now that she heard that the two of them had taken the initiative to go to the church, it would save them a lot of trouble.
Serena also smiled.
“It seems that the heavens are still on our side.” Emma spun around on the spot a few times.
“Let’s go. We’ll follow them to the church.”
Sure enough, Le Wan and Zhai Jing were nowhere to be seen when they reached the church. Emma gave the priest in the church a look, and the two of them walked to a quiet place. Emma asked,
“Have you done what I told you?”
The priest’s name was White. He looked kind, but the words he said were not very Kina. msteaa, It maae people’s nair stana on ena. “Don’t worry, I guarantee that they won’t return.”
Emma rolled her eyes.
“Who told you that I was going to commit murder and arson?”
White spread his hands.
“Alright, I won’t kill them. Anyway, I’ve already lured them to the small wooden house on the mountain according to what you said with the guidance of the gods.”
It turned out that Emma’s plan for revenge was to lure Le Wan and Zhai Jing to the abandoned wooden house on the mountain, then lock the door from the outside and lock them inside.
The weather in Wade Town was pleasant during the day, but it would drop to about five or six degrees at night. When they were halfway up the mountain, the temperature would drop by one or two degrees. Without a fireplace or other items to keep out the cold, they would suffer a lot if they were locked in the cabin for a night.
Therefore, Emma specifically called the church’s priest, White. This old fellow looked kind, but she had once discovered that he had an unclear relationship with several noble ladies in the town.
Using this excuse, Emma had threatened him several times to do shady things.
For example, in the drowning case three years ago, White had also given false testimony for them and brought forward their departure time by a few minutes. It was also because of his testimony that the three of them were completely cleared of suspicion.
This time, Emma used this to threaten the priest. When Le Wan and Zhai Jing arrived at the church, he told them that there was a miracle in the small wooden house on the mountain. If a couple went up and met the little white fox in the small wooden house, the couple would receive the blessing of the mountain god and be in love for the rest of their lives.
For love stories like this, many scenic spots would specially develop them to get more money from tourists. Many people didn’t actually believe in these things, but to get a good chance, most of them would still spend a little money to participate, so it was considered prosperous.
According to White’s description, Le Wan wasn’t interested in the story after she heard it. Instead, it was Zhai Jing who insisted on going to take a look.
Then, the two of them walked up the mountainside hand in hand.
This made Emma angry again.
“Does he love this woman so much? He couldn’t wait to verify the miracle so that their relationship would last for a long time.”
Thinking of this, she sneered.
“In that case, to fulfill their love, let’s let them stay in the wooden house for a little longer. Perhaps they can really wait for a miracle.”
There was a hint of sarcasm in her words.
Serena looked up at the small wooden house halfway up the mountain.
“Then, do we still have to go up the mountain to take a look?”
Emma glanced at the high heels under her feet and gritted her teeth.
“Of course, I’m going.. I want to see their panicked expressions when they find out that they’re locked in the wooden house!”
