After becoming rich overnight, I handed over the system.

Chapter 268 Settlement

Wang Erya, who went out for a walk last night, returned to the basement. Today, she was waiting for her parents to come over.

Soon, sounds came from the basement.

"Father, Mother, you must persuade Er Ya. This is a task assigned by the Prince!" San Ya instructed.

"Don't worry, she's just a wandering ghost. It's a huge advantage for her to possess Er Ya's body!" Er Ya's mother complained.

After being modified by the gene-editing agent, Wang Erya had sharp hearing and could hear their whispers from a great distance.

A wandering ghost? Taking advantage?

It's hard to tell who's benefiting from whom! If it weren't for her, would this family have the wealth and luxury they enjoy today?

At this moment, Wang Erya was thankful that she hadn't died easily because she had heard Lin Liuyi's words; she wanted revenge!

The sound of footsteps grew closer, and Wang Erya slowly sat up from the ground.

Wang Sanya was a little suspicious. She felt that Wang Erya's complexion seemed better than yesterday. Then she thought that Wang Erya had a treasure on her. Perhaps it was because she used that magical treasure that Wang Erya's condition improved.

Thinking of this, Wang Sanya's eyes lit up with desire.

She nudged her mother, urging her to speak.

Er Ya's mother cleared her throat and said, "Er Ya, you should be grateful now. This is an opportunity given by the Prince's Mansion. As long as you hand over the items, you will be rewarded handsomely in the future."

"Benefits? Benefits of being imprisoned here?" Wang Erya asked with a sneer.

"Er Ya, how can you say that? The prince treated you so well before. You, a peasant girl, have risen to become a phoenix. Why don't you cherish your good fortune? Just listen to the prince and hand over the things!"

"Mother, you're joking! Would you like this blessing?"

"I don't care about you, Wang Erya, if you still acknowledge me and your father, then hand over the things!" Erya's mother's expression changed and she immediately began to threaten.

"Her mother, how can you talk like that! Talk to Er Ya properly!" Er Ya's father advised.

"Er Ya, whether you are our Er Ya or not, since you have taken Er Ya's body, you are our daughter. Daughter, our family used to be doing well, didn't we? You became a princess, and your sister entered the royal palace. The prince treated you so well! You should give this to him!"

"Is it better for the prince to be good to me? Is it better to imprison me here, or to whip me?"

"Well, the prince is just too anxious! Er Ya, your parents want the best for you. Why are you being so stubborn? That thing is useless to you. If you give it to the prince, he's a man destined for great things!"

"Hoping I'll get better? Ha, you probably hope I'll die! Why aren't you afraid I'm a wandering ghost now?"

Er Ya's father's expression changed upon hearing this.

"You were originally a wandering ghost. If you hadn't taken over my daughter's body, do you think you would still be alive today?" Er Ya's mother said sternly.

"Now you're calling me a wandering ghost? Yes, it's true I took your daughter's body. But didn't you take advantage of me? If it weren't for my family, would we be rich? Would Sanya be able to enter the Prince's mansion? If it weren't for me, you would still be poor farmers in the countryside, and Sanya, you would just be a village girl. Everything you have now is thanks to me, but what have you done? You've turned around and harmed me!" Wang Erya finally shouted out her pent-up resentment.

The three panicked, and Er Ya's mother shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about? You wandering ghost have possessed my daughter's body, so everything you have should belong to us!"

"Yours?" Wang Erya slowly stood up.

"You, how can you stand? What are you going to do?" Sanya was extremely surprised. What was going on? When did the shackles disappear?

Wang Erya's eyes sharpened: "What I want to do is, of course, take revenge. Everything you have is thanks to me, so I can take it all back!"

Er Ya's mother forced herself to remain calm: "You dare threaten us?"

With a wave of her hand, Wang Erya sent the three of them crashing to the ground.

"What did you do to us!" Sanya felt like she couldn't even lift her head.

"Revenge, didn't I tell you? I won't let a single one of them escape!"

Wang Erya didn't want to argue with them anymore. Since they showed no remorse, she would restore everything to its original state.

She couldn't kill him, but she could certainly make them suffer a fate worse than death.

"You vile woman! You wandering ghost! You deserve a terrible death!"

"Sister, please spare me and my parents! I don't want to be a princess anymore!"

"Er Ya, please let your father go! I was forced into this situation! You know I used to love you the most!"

Wang Erya ignored the three men's cries and administered another dose of sleeping pills, causing them to immediately lose consciousness.

She swiftly severed the tendons in the hands and feet of the three men, leaving them to enjoy their remaining days in bed.

Then, ignoring the unconscious people, she walked out of the basement.

"Haven't the princess and the others come up yet?" the prince asked his trusted aide.

"Your Highness, the Princess Consort and her parents have not returned yet."

They're never coming back! Wang Erya continued to apply the muscle-relaxing powder, and with two thuds, the prince also lay on the ground.

"Who is it!"

"Of course it's me, Your Highness!" Wang Erya revealed herself and began to provoke the tendons in the prince's hands and feet.

"You, ah!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, Your Highness, I forgot to give you the sleeping potion!" Wang Erya added more sleeping potion, and soon the prince suffered the same fate.

After winning over the prince, she started stuffing things into her spatial ring. Everything in the prince's mansion was earned by her, and she would give it all to Lin Liuyi as a reward instead of leaving it to these people.

"Your Highness, this servant has come to serve you tea! Ah, Your Highness!"

Oh right, she almost forgot about the willow catkins; Wang Erya had given her the same three-piece set.

Then Wang Erya went to her parents' house and heard her grandparents talking to her uncle's family.

"Grandpa, let's go to a restaurant today! I took it back yesterday, so we can eat whatever we want!"

"Oh my, my grandson is really amazing!"

"Second brother, I should get a share of this too, right?" the eldest cousin said jealously.

"Brother, you weren't adopted, so how could you possibly have a share in this restaurant! But you're my brother, so I won't let you suffer a loss. Here's 500 taels of silver for you to spend!" The second cousin thought to himself, 500 taels of silver can be earned back in 5 days, it's not much.

"Second brother, isn't this too little? I heard that Er Ya's restaurant can earn 100 taels a day!"

"Brother, that's all hearsay..."

Hearing the argument inside, Wang Erya began sprinkling medicine with a blank expression.

"A combination of muscle-softening powder and sleeping pills is truly a great help for home robbery," she exclaimed as she severed the tendons of the men.

A family should always be together!

After ransacking the place again, Wang Erya went out.

She didn't know where she was going, or whether this counted as revenge. Even though she had severed the tendons in those people's hands and feet, she wasn't very happy.
