But there were also exiled people that did not want to go back. They had settled well in other countries and were not willing to start all over again.
It was the third round of homecoming plans, and also the last one. The reward was charming. Whoever was willing to relocate back to the Dragon Kingdom would be compensated with a handsome fund per person.
It was said to be 20 million dollars plus a housing allowance.
This being said, many more were becoming interested.
The word was spread soon enough to Starstan.
In a seaside village, there lived a fisherman, Jin Hong Sheng, and his family. Jin’s wife Ge Juhua heard about the homecoming plan and asked for his opinion.
“Hey, shall we move to the Dragon Kingdom? Take a look here. They are offering relocation funds and housing allowances. If we could seek this opportunity we wouldn’t need to stay in this shabby place any longer.”
Fisherman Jin shot a look at her and said, “You greedy woman! Didn’t you read the following lines? Whoever fakes his nationality of Dragon Kingdom to claim the funds will be accused of fraud. Do you want to check out the jail in the Dragon Kingdom?”
Ge Juhua rolled her eyes and said, “Who said to check out the jail? I’m planning for our future! What fortune can we make out of fishing? Don’t our son and daughter need to get married? Can we afford it?”
“Our son can simply marry Xiaoxi. She is a good girl.”
“What the hell? I don’t want an ugly daughter-in-law like her. She does a good job though. We can keep her as a laborer.”
“You mean woman! Don’t you feel for Xiaoxi? You should be nice to her.”
His wife glared at him and said, “I don’t have time to feel for anyone. I’m not doing charity. We are already generous to provide for her. What else could she expect? You want me to treat her like Jin Hua? No way!”
“Fine. Stop it. Xiaoxi will be back in no time.”
“I can stop talking. But you have to go figure it out. We are moving to the Dragon Kingdom!”
Jin Hongsheng was almost kicked out of his own home. Meanwhile a girl was coming home on an e-bike and eventually stopped at the seafood store.
Getting off the bike she took off her helmet and swung her beautiful hair.
Some boys walked by and whistled at her, “Hey, pretty!”
The girl turned around upon hearing the noises. The boys were then shocked by the scars on her face.
“Shit! It’s Jin’s ugly daughter!”
“I cannot bear the sight of her!”
“They say old Jin is getting her a husband. Let’s go! Get away from the ugly monster!”
They fled as fast as they could as if they had just run into a ghost.
The girl sneered. She was already used to being called an ugly monster.
She was not upset at all and carried the empty containers into the seafood store.
Since she had been saved by her foster father two years ago, she had been living with the Jin family as their adopted daughter.
Her foster father told her that he had found her in his fishing net one day. She was trapped in tangled seaweed with wounds all over her body.
