Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School Novel - Chapter 2690

Chapter 2690: Blackmail?

At 2:30 pm, they met at the appointed place, then set off. They hadn’t chosen a camp yet, because they rarely traveled nearby and didn’t know where the best place for a picnic was.

Anyway, as long as there were mountains and beautiful views, it would be a good choice.

Thinking of that, they chose Qianling Mountain.

There was a river there, so they could look for a camp along that direction and see where it was suitable for them.

They didn’t bring any food with them. They only brought water and some fruit. Since it was a picnic, they would get some wild vegetables and animals at that time.

It couldn’t be easier for them to catch wild animals. Other than Leng Shaoming, Leng Shaoxi, and Leng Shaoxun, the rest of them had caught some wild animals before.

Leng Shaoming came with them, but Leng Shaojia didn’t because she didn’t want to have fun with them.

In the past, Leng Shaoming might not have joined them either, but now he felt like they could be friends.

In all, there were eight of them, namely Leng Shaoting, Gu Ning, Leng Shaoming, Leng Shaoxun, Leng Shaoxi, Zhan Zhiyin, Xu Jinchen, and Zi Beiying.

Leng Shaoxi and Leng Shaoxun shared a car with Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, while Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin were in the same car as Xu Jinchen and Zi Beiying.

Leng Shaoting drove at the front because Gu Ning would choose the best place for their picnic.

Although they were heading to Qianling Mountain, they wouldn’t go too close, because it was a tourist attraction and there would be many tourists.

Therefore, they stopped eight kilometers away from Qianling Mountain and chose a suitable camp by the river. The river was surrounded by mountains, but it wasn’t close to the main road.

As a result, they had to stop the car at the roadside.

Then they walked about a kilometer till their destination.

After they reached the destination, they worked separately. Leng Shaoting and Xu Jinchen went to catch some animals in the mountains. Zhan Zhiyin and Leng Shaoming went to collect firewood. Leng Shaoxi and Leng Shaoxun cleaned fruits and put them into plates. And Gu Ning and Zi Beiying went to catch fish in the river.

The river wasn’t deep and the water was very clean so there were a lot of fish.

After Leng Shaoting and Xu Jinchen had gone a distance away, Xu Jinchen said to Leng Shaoting, “I’m so surprised that Leng Shaoming was willing to go out with you.”

Xu Jinchen had a close relationship with Leng Shaoting and they knew each other ever since they were little, so he was aware that Leng Shaoming never got along with Leng Shaoting. He also knew that Leng Shaoting’s second uncle disliked him.

Therefore, it was a big surprise that Leng Shaoming came out with Leng Shaoting today and that they seemed to be at peace.

“After going through something, they’ve changed,” said Leng Shaoting.

“Well, you’re a family. It’s better for a family to get along with each other. That’s the key to a better future. If not, there will only be bad results,” said Xu Jinchen.

Although Leng Shaoming didn’t get along with Leng Shaoting before, he hadn’t done anything that was unacceptable, so Xu Jinchen didn’t hate him.

And now he had changed so Xu Jinchen might gradually develop a better impression of him.

Leng Shaoting never had the idea of competing against Leng Yuanqian’s family, but they always saw him as a competitor. Luckily, all of them had changed their attitude towards him now. He was happy to see that.

He didn’t really care about them, but he cared about Master Leng’s feelings.

…

Gu Ning and Zi Beiying picked up some sticks and sharpened them to catch fish.

Without much effort, they caught eight fish. Gu Ning got five, and Zi Beiying caught three.

They felt it was enough since each of them could have a fish. If they wanted more, they could catch more fish afterwards. After all, there was other food for them to fill their stomachs with.

They didn’t bring dishes with them, but they did bring some seasonings, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to cook.

“Wow, you caught the fish so quickly! We haven’t even finished the fruit salad yet.” Leng Shaoxun was surprised to see Gu Ning and Zi Beiying back with the fish since only a few minutes had passed.

“It’s us! Of course we’re efficient!” Leng Shaoxi rolled her eyes at Leng Shaoxun. She knew how skilled Gu Ning was, so she wasn’t shocked.

“Right, but it’s still amazing!” Leng Shaoxun understood how skilled Gu Ning was, and that it was very normal that they caught the fish so quickly, but it was still surprising.

“Well, I also went fishing. Don’t give all the credit to Gu Ning. I’m not as good as her, but I also caught three fish.” Zi Beiying said when they believed that the fish were all caught by Gu Ning.

“Of course, you’re also very impressive!” Leng Shaoxi explained.

“Right!” Leng Shaoxun joined their conversation with sincerity.

“Great.” Zi Beiying was satisfied.

About a dozen minutes later, Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin came back with firewood so they began to start a fire and roast the fish.

When the roasted fish was almost done, Leng Shaoting came back with Xu Jinchen. They had caught two wild rabbits and a small wild pig.

“Wow, you caught a wild pig.” Leng Shaoxun exclaimed. He thought they would at most catch some wild rabbits.

After they got back, they went to kill and clean the wild rabbits and pig.

However, right when Leng Shaoting and Xu Jinchen were cutting the wild rabbits and wild pig, three middle-aged men ran towards them in anger.

Gu Ning thought that the land might be owned by them and they damaged their land.

“Why are they rushing to us angrily?” asked Leng Shaoxi in confusion.

“No idea,” said Leng Shaoxun.

“We’ll figure it out,” said Zi Beiying.

Because they didn’t know those men’s intentions, Gu Ning and the others did nothing.

“You stole our wild pig! You should pay us for it.” One of the three men said angrily once they were close.

“Do you have evidence to prove this wild pig is owned by you? We can’t believe you just because you said it’s yours. If you can prove it, we’ll pay you,” said Gu Ning. If this wild pig was owned by the three men, they would pay them, but she didn’t think it was the truth.

When the three men shouted at them, there wasn’t much confidence in their eyes, which was a sign of lying. Therefore, if this wild pig wasn’t owned by them, they must have come to blackmail them.
