Han Ruochen was unwilling to entangle herself any further with her mother. Though the woman had given birth to her and her siblings, she had no motherly feelings for her or her siblings. Maybe her mother did really have a screw loose in her head that she cared for someone like Yun Xinye.

"Go! Leave!" Meng Yunhan shrieked from behind as she chased after them. Her face twisted maliciously. She wanted to retort to Han Yong, but she had nothing to say. What the man said was indeed correct. But Han Ziyan was also her daughter, and after she saw her daughter getting humiliated, she could not stay quiet. "But I am telling you, Han Ruochen! You are nothing without Ziyan’s luck; you were born unlucky. A wretched woman with a fate so poor that you can never succeed."

"You don’t have to tell me this, mother," said Han Ruochen coldly. She did not look back as she continued marching forward. "The fact that I have you as my mother is enough to prove that I was born without any luck." A woman who could kill all of her children and husband because of her own obsessive love... if she was not unlucky to have her as her mother, what else was she?

Meng Yunhan’s face turned red with anger when she heard Han Ruochen’s words. It was one thing for her not to want her children, but it was simply another thing for her to hear her children tell her back that they did not want her as a mother or that they thought it was unlucky that she was their mother.

She wanted to chase after Han Ruochen, but when she thought about how Han Ziyan was still crying, she could only drop the idea for the time being and rush back inside the home to comfort her daughter.

Han Ruochen and Han Yong also did not linger behind.

They knew that if they stayed at home, Meng Yunhan would try her best to snatch the aerated box from them. So it was better for them to wait for their second uncle to return, but at the same time, Han Ruochen was worried. The golden moray was a treasure, but in the end, it was still seafood. What if it got spoiled because they were not able to reach the county in time?

She had exhausted the universal bait box’s energy for the next week, and the box would only start working after this week had passed. If this golden moray got ruined, then she would not be able to get another treasure till the next week. Han Ruochen did not want to waste anymore time getting a new motorboat.

She turned to look at her elder brother and said to him, "We need to get to the county as soon as possible. Brother, don’t you have a motorbike?" Han Ruochen remembered that Han Yong had bought one a few years ago, but to her surprise, as soon as she asked about the bike, her brother’s expression changed and turned guilty.

"I...I had to sell it because there were some financial issues in the company." Han Yong felt ashamed admitting the truth, but in the end, he had no other choice but to tell Han Ruochen the truth. As soon as Han Ruochen heard that the motorbike had been sold, she pursed her lips and tried to calm herself down, but she couldn’t.

She said to her brother with some anger on her face, "Brother, I know that you are upset that you lost someone you loved, but does it mean that you will completely let go of yourself? And what is the point of what you are doing? In the end, it is benefiting someone else’s family! You might as well go ahead and declare bankruptcy because you have no passion or skills when it comes to business."

After speaking, she snatched the box from her brother and marched forward. She was angry—no she was infuriated. Her brother was such a good cook; he could have worked in a five-star restaurant or maybe opened his own, but no, he just chose to follow his thug of a friend, who was now living a good life while her brother was suffering.

There was a limit to a person’s foolishness.

Han Yong wanted to say something, but he couldn’t bring himself to. His sister was right. He had been acting like a fool. After his mother married him to Madam Xu, he started acting rebelliously. He did not care about what was happening in the company, to the point that even his good friends gave up on him. He knew that there were some issues with the finances, but he never bothered to check or confront his in-laws; he allowed them to run amok because he did not want to care.

He just wanted to get ruined and also wanted to drag his wife and his in-laws down with him.

Han Yong wanted his in-laws to get used to living in comfort and riches, so when his company was ruined completely, they would face the biggest loss in the world, but after seeing the disappointment in his sister’s eyes, he felt like a total nutjob.

Pursing his lips, he chased after her. "We need a vehicle," Han Yong panted. "If we walk to the county, then the oxygen in the water will run out, and it will be of no use if the golden moray dies. The price will drop by half."

"I know that, but the bus does not come for an hour, and I have no idea when second uncle will return," said Han Ruochen regrettably. If she had known that this was going to happen, she would have asked her second uncle to wait for her. "And we will have to hurry up, or else mom and Ziyan will come looking for us." She knew the two of them would never let go of twenty-five thousand yuan just like that.

And as if summoned by the mere thought, the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind them.
