《Reincarnation: Hot Stuff In The Bigshot Circle》 Chapter 1 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Linjiang City, Super God Arena City Ling Mo stood in the center of the arena with her back against the light, holding a rusty iron rod in her hand. Sister Mo, what should we do now? Qiao Feng bent his body and stared vigilantly at the huge monster outside the arena, code-named AK45. AK45 was about three meters tall, with a bulls head and a humans body. Its entire body was green, and the veins on its thick arms were bulging. With just one glance, one could tell that its martial prowess was as terrifying as its appearance. Ling Mos eyes were sharp. She stared coldly at the giant-like AK45 outside the arena and said coldly, Kill it. But It felt a little difficult to beat it. Before Qiao Feng could finish his words, Ling Mo suddenly soared into the air. With a clean backflip, she drew an arc in the air. Everyone looked up in disbelief and looked at Ling Mo, who was standing steadily on the shoulder of the AK45. This move was extremely cool! However, to defeat the AK45, they felt that it was impossible just by looking at the difference in their physique. Sister Mo, come down quickly! Gu Tingbai looked flustered. He threw away the iron rod in his hand and charged straight at the AK45, which had mutated, and was as tall as two people. Sister Mo, Ill catch you. Ling Tian, who was buried in the crowd, narrowed her round eyes. She looked at Ling Mo, who was about to be killed by the AK45, and was secretly delighted. Shi Yi, who was beside her, simply threw away his weapon. With both hands in his pockets, he watched this splendid and magnificent battle calmly. Xiao Tian, how long do you think this stupid cousin of mine can last? Lower your voice. Ling Tian glared angrily at Shi Yi, who was next to her. In her opinion, she liked everything about this cousin of Ling Mo from the countryside. He was stupid enough, and easy to fool. Unfortunately, he just couldnt keep his mouth shut. Shi Yi pouted his lips, he muttered softly, The rules clearly state that nine people will definitely be eliminated at this last checkpoint. She insisted on being a hero. Why did she have to go through thick and thin together? She actually dares to challenge the referee. She is not afraid of death! Shi Yi! Ling Tian stopped the chattering Shi Yi. She wanted Ling Mo to die more than anyone else, but she did not want others to know her thoughts. She was the well-known genius girl in Linjiang City, the beautiful young miss of the Shi Jian Group. No matter when or where, the perfect persona could not be broken. In short, Ling Tian could do whatever she wanted Below the stage, the dark nostrils of the AK45 flared. It looked angrily at the thin girl with a straight back who was wearing a camouflage suit on its shoulders. Get off, or dont blame me for being rude. Ling Mo raised her eyebrows. She waved the iron rod in her hand and deftly avoided the AK45s wide palm. With a tearing sound, it pierced through its ear hole that was only thumb-wide. The thick iron rod instantly tore the tender flesh on its earlobe, causing it to howl in pain. Those who defy the rules will be executed! Youre not qualified to talk about the rules with me. Ling Mo sneered and quickly pulled out the saber hidden in her black military boots. She suddenly jumped up and stabbed straight at the AK-45s bloodshot eyeball. Ah! Ling Mo, youve ignored the rules. Youll definitely be permanently removed from the Super God Arena City! Get it straight. I am the rules. Ling Mo broke its nose with a kick. She stretched her slim waist and used the force to get up. Then, with lightning speed, she pulled open the safety pin of the grenade and smashed it towards its bald head. Boom! The grenade exploded in the air like a volcano. The earth shook. Ling Mo raised her hand to wipe away the blood stains on her face and landed steadily on the ground. She did not even bother to look back at Ak-45 that had died from a headshot. Sister Mo is mighty! In the Battle of Ascension, Sister Mo is definitely the strongest SSS + tier captain in the history of the Super God Arena City! Gu Tingbai and Qiao Feng, the two little fans of Ling Mo, worshipped her endlessly like the waters of the Yangtze River. The Super God Arena City was not a city, but an arena dedicated to selecting Chinas top talents. Every year, China would recruit 3,000 talented youths from all over the country. Once the chosen ones accepted the Super God Arena Citys invitation, they would have to pass a six-month trial. Only 30 people would be able to successfully obtain their graduation certificates. For the 2,900 people who were eliminated, losing was death. And Ling Mo had killed the referee and changed the rules, allowing 39 people to successfully graduate this year. Without a doubt, this was an unprecedented feat! Lets go! Lets go get our graduation certificate. Ling Mo flicked the dust off the captains armband and took the lead to step out of the arena. More than 30 people who had survived the calamity in the arena were still in a state of ecstasy. Some were crying, some were laughing, and some were even chanting Amitabha. To be able to successfully graduate meant that they were about to become a person who could hold their own in China, and their family business would be even more prosperous because of their glory. This was also the fundamental reason why the top talents of the country still poured in despite the cruel rules of competition in the Super God Arena City. Ling Mo was sent to the Super God Arena City mainly because her cheapskate father, Ling Yunlong, had secretly threatened the life of her grandmother, Liu Guifen, whom she cared about the most, and had even sent the only man in her uncles family, Shi Yi, to the Super God Arena City. She had no choice but to compromise. Although the Shi Jian Group, which was 100% owned by Ling Yunlong, was somewhat famous in Linjiang City, with the current strength of the Shi Jian Group, it was still not enough to squeeze into the ranks of the wealthy and influential families in China. For the sake of the development of the family, Ling Yunlong made up his mind and sent Ling Mo and Ling Tian to the Super God Arena City. However, in order to protect Ling Tian, Ling Yunlong had pulled a lot of strings and spent 500 million to buy a spot for her to successfully graduate. As for Ling Mo, Ling Yunlong did not care about her life or death at all. Ling Mo was well aware of this, but she did not care. She never needed anyones protection. She could fight for anything, but she did not need to fight for her father. Even so, there was a hint of loneliness in her clear and bright eyes. In the end, she still had a glimmer of hope that she should not have for this superficial family. Sis, not good! Cousin Shi Yi has gone missing. An anxious voice came from behind. Ling Mo turned around unhurriedly, her bright black eyes glancing at Ling Tian whose breathing was calm. If you know whats good for you, dont play tricks in front of me. Mo Sister Mo, Look! Qiao Feng, who had just jumped off the arena, caught a glimpse of Shi Yi, who was 50 meters away on the high platform with a time bomb installed on his body. His lips trembled slightly as he called out to Ling Mo. . Ling Mo looked in the direction that Qiao Feng was pointing at and saw that there were only 90 seconds left on the countdown device. Without thinking, she leaped out of the arena and dashed towards Shi Yi, who was tied up on the main stage. Sister Mo, its dangerous! Gu Tingbai had never known that Ling Mo knew how to defuse bombs. He was about to stop her, but he was too late. Dont follow me. Ling Mo rushed to Shi Yi at the fastest speed in her life and opened the timebomb. Cousin cousin, you have to save me! Im the only male in the Shi family, I cant let anything happen to me. Shi Yi, who was tied to a chair, shouted anxiously. His scarlet eyes subconsciously looked at Ling Tian, who was following closely behind Ling Mo. She was out of breath. Their eyes met, and the meaning behind it was self-evident. Unfortunately, Ling Mo, who was busy defusing the bomb, did not notice the smug expressions on their faces. Following a crisp cutting sound of the wires, Ling Mos highly tensed nerves finally relaxed. She let out a long sigh of relief and leaned back slightly to comfort Shi Yi, who looked like he was still in shock. Cousin, dont be afraid Afraid? What do we have to be afraid of? Ling Tian took advantage of the moment when Ling Mo was caught off guard and dashed forward to throw the strong acid that she had prepared beforehand. You! A heart-wrenching scream erupted from Ling Mos throat. Her clear face was instantly corroded into a bloody mess. Even her originally neat teeth were melted by the strong acid. The veins on her hand that was tightly gripping the saber bulged, and she suddenly swung it at Ling Tian who was beside her. She thought that Ling Tian was just pampered by her stepmother, Su Yu. She thought that although Shi Yi liked Ling Tian, it was not to the extent that he would kill her, his biological cousin, for the sake of Ling Tian. Who would have thought that they would actually be so vicious to such an extent! Ling Tian tilted her body and avoided Ling Mos who was gradually losing strength. She sneered, I told you that you wouldnt be my match. Why? Ling Mos eyes were festering due to the corrosion of the strong acid, and her vision instantly dropped. Only when you die can I become the first daughter of Shi Jian Group and be able to legally marry Brother Feifan. Ling Tian hugged her knees with both hands and smiled sweetly at Ling Mo, who was curled up on the ground and struggling in pain. Not far away, Gu Tingbai, Qiao Feng, and the others sensed that something was wrong. As they cursed at Shi Yi and Ling Tian, they charged at the main stage aggressively. A bunch of idiots who chose the wrong team. Damn it. Shi Yi raised his eyelids slightly and suddenly stood up. He stepped on the top-secret device under the seat to detonate the land mine. In the next moment, accompanied by a deafening explosion, Gu Tingbai and the others were all blasted into a bloody mess on the plastic runway 20 meters away from the main stage. No! Ling Mo tilted half of her face, which had been completely corroded, and stuck to the rough ground in despair. Turbid blood oozed out from her eyes. Accept your fate, poor wretch. Ling Tian raised her eyebrows. She twirled two fingers and pulled off the captains armband on Ling Mos arm, which had been corroded by the strong acid. After that, she left proudly. When she and Shi Yi had just walked out of the Super God Arena City, two unfamiliar male voices suddenly rang out in the dying Ling Mos ears. F * ck, Im a step too late! I wanted to witness the glory of the strongest one, but she actually died. Pitiful, what a pity. Third brother, what are you doing? This girls clothes have been unbuttoned, Ill fasten them. Ah! The intense pain of being corroded by the strong acid made Ling Mo furrow her eyebrows. But when she suddenly opened her eyes, she found herself safely leaning against the back seat of the car. Ling Yunlong, who was sitting by her side, looked unhappily at Ling Mo, who was shouting and yelling, and scolded coldly, Have you gotten used to living in the countryside all these years? You dont even look like a lady from a noble family. Ling Mo held her aching head and raised her eyebrows as she looked at Ling Yunlong, who was speaking coldly to her. What a familiar scene In order to confirm her guess, Ling Mo snatched the newspaper from Ling Yunlongs hands. Seeing the words October 24th, 2020 printed on the top right corner of the newspaper, she dared to believe that she had returned to a year before the tragedy had even begun. She was seventeen that year. It had been seven years since she had been sent to her grandmothers home in the countryside to be adopted. Due to the lack of family ties, she had made a fatal mistake in her previous life. She knew that Ling Yunlong did not have a place for her in his heart, but she naively believed that blood was thicker than water and that everything would get better after spending more time with him. It was not until the last moment of her life that she realized the reality. To the Ling family, she, Ling Mo, was a dispensable outsider. What kind of attitude is this? Ling Yunlong looked at Ling Mo, whose eyes were ice-cold, in astonishment, and suddenly felt a trace of panic in his heart. Her eyes were extremely similar to that persons! Ling Mo noticed Ling Yunlongs gaze that stopped on her body. Her beautiful eyebrows trembled as she said coldly, What kind of attitude do you think I should have? The driver, Liu Zhong, parked the car and looked at Ling Mo with disdain. Ling Yunlong had pushed a few social engagements just to go to the First High School to help her out, but she did not know how to be grateful. She did not even call him Father. Indeed, a country bumpkin who grew up in the countryside was really rude. She had taken the position of the Ling familys eldest daughter for nothing, yet she was still not presentable. Ling Yunlongs face was dark. He had originally planned to scold her, but when he met her cold gaze, he felt a sense of panic. At this moment, the butler, Uncle Fu, had already opened the car door and bowed respectfully. Master, youre back. Yes. Ling Yunlong was the first to get out of the car. He looked at Ling Mo, who was sitting quietly in the car and did not move at all. He thought to himself that Ling Mo had only been in class F of grade 12 for less than a week, but she had been forced to drop out of school because she got zero in all her subjects. She must be feeling upset. She was dawdling and unwilling to get out of the car. It must be because she was ashamed. Thinking of this, he held back his temper a little and relaxed his tone. Your aunt is a magnanimous person. She wont make things difficult for you. Give in to her, study more, and speak less. Okay. Ling Mo responded coldly and avoided Ling Yunlongs hand. She carried her worn out shoulder bag and got out of the car slowly. Yunlong, why have you been gone for so long? I thought you wouldnt even be able to make it back to your precious daughters birthday party. Not far away, Su Yu hugged a brown teddy in her arms and twisted her slender waist as she welcomed him with a smile.. Chapter 2 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Mo lifted his eyelids slightly and looked at Su Yu. Su Yu was Ling Mos stepmother. More than ten years ago, she was an extremely popular movie queen. Now that she was over forty years old, her body was still lithe. She looked more like a shy and beautiful young lady. It was just that her past was not as glamorous as her appearance. She was a mistress. During her best friends pregnancy, she slept with her husband, Ling Yunlong. Later on, Shi Ying died of an amniotic fluid embolism during childbirth, and she immediately married into the Ling family with a big belly. After securing the position of the Ling familys mistress, she used extreme methods to successfully cover her dark history. She even managed to make a name for herself in the circle of wealthy women in Linjiang City. It was also because of Su Yus exceptional diplomatic talent that Shi Jian Group received a sky-high amount of financing. Over the years, she was able to be pampered and protected by Ling Yunlong. Seeing Su Yu approach, Ling Yunlongs cold face instantly broke into a smile. There was a traffic jam on the road and I was delayed for some time. Dont worry, I will definitely not forget my precious daughters birthday. Su Yu grunted and turned around, as if she was venting her anger on him. Her smiling eyes paused for a moment. After a while, she finally noticed Ling Mo, who had both her hands in her pockets and looked pure. How is Mo Mo handling the matter of the schools expulsion? Su Yu had a faint smile on her face the entire time, but the hatred in her eyes had already seeped out. God knows how much effort she had put in to erase that despicable history of being a mistress. And Ling Mos return also meant that the stigma that she had tried so hard to get rid of would return. Ling Yunlong obviously didnt notice Su Yus emotional fluctuations. He hugged her slender waist and said gently, The principals father-in-law is out, so Ill have to go again tomorrow. By the way, Mo Mo has only been back from the countryside for a week and doesnt know the rules. Ill have to trouble you to teach her well in the future. Of course. Su Yu put down the teddy in her arms and shouted at Nanny Wu, Arent you going to take Miss Mo to wash up? Yes, Madam. Nanny Wu dragged her fat body and ran out. Miss Mo, please come with me. Okay. Ling Mo nodded, and a few rays of light flashed in her pure eyes. Even without makeup, she was still beautiful. She silently followed behind Nanny Wu, her mind wandering as she thought about what she should do next. She had been reborn a year before the tragedy had even begun. This meant that everything that had happened before could be overturned and restarted. She would avenge herself 10 or 100 times more than what Ling Tian and Shi Yo did to her. Su Yus hypocritical mask, she would destroy it with her own hands. As for her brothers who had gone through life and death with her in the Super God Arena City, she would also do her best to protect them. Miss Mo, be careful! Dont dirty the Scottish carpet that Madam specially ordered from europe. Nanny Wu grabbed the slightly absent-minded Ling Mo and yelled at her. In her opinion, the canvas shoes on Ling Mos feet, which had been washed until their original color could not be seen clearly, were not worthy of stepping on the expensive Scottish carpet. Isnt the carpet meant to be stepped on? Ling Mo rubbed against the thick carpet under her feet heavily as she tilted her head and looked coldly at Nanny Wu, who was used to sucking up on her superiors and stepping on the lower ones. In her previous life, she had only tolerated Ling Yunlong because she had a faint longing for the love of her biological father. After her rebirth, if she was still so cowardly, how could she be worthy of the blessings of the god of fate? The maid who was sweeping the living room glanced at Ling Mo, who had her hands in her pockets and appeared to be very righteous, and whispered incessantly in her ears. A lowly wretch from the countryside. Shes really vulgar. I heard that she almost got expelled from school after getting into a fight. Thats right! A wild girl without any upbringing. How can she compare to the Second Miss whos proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting? I didnt expect the eldest young miss to be this kind of trash. She cant even compare to me. Ah, who told her to be so lucky? She got engaged to the young master of the Liang family as soon as she was born. Ling Mo calmly walked past the maid who was whispering to each other. She unintentionally met Sister Zhangs shrewd eyes, and the corners of her lips curled into a mischievous smile. Sister Zhang, if your breath stinks, you should brush your teeth more often. Wh What? Sister Zhang raised her head and looked at Ling Mo in astonishment. Her voice was clearly very soft. How did Ling Mo hear It? Shh, you smell Ling Mo made a gesture of silence, completely unbothered by everyones strange gazes. After all, everyone in the Ling family, apart from Nanny Tian in the kitchen, had already been subdued by Su Yus methods. Sister Zhangs face was red, and she was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to hide in. She wanted to argue with Ling Mo, but due to her identity as the eldest daughter of the Ling family, she had no choice but to give up and swallow her anger silently. Ling Mo wanted to go upstairs to take a nap, but when she saw Ling Tian suddenly sitting in front of the piano and playing Islamey, one of the top ten godly songs, she strode forward and punched the piano keys. The music stopped abruptly, and the strange silence began to ferment. For some reason, everyone held their breaths at this moment, afraid that Ling Mo would do something outrageous to Ling Tian. Ling Tian frowned and raised her head to look at the ruffian-looking Ling Mo. she pretended to greet her. Sister, do you want to play a song too? Nanny Wu noticed that Ling Tian was a little unhappy. Like a lapdog, she came up to her and said sarcastically, How can Miss Mo play the piano? In my opinion, she only knows how to punch the keys. Nanny Wu, dont talk about sister like that. Ling Tian gently stopped Nanny Wu, but a sweet smile appeared on her face. Its my fault. I accidentally told the truth. Nanny Wu looked at the indifferent Ling Mo in embarrassment. It seemed like she was apologizing, but her words were full of pride. Miss Mo, please dont feel inferior. After all, Second Miss is not someone ordinary people can compare to. Ling Mo suddenly found it very funny. When she was playing with the pianist Maxim, she, Ling Tian, could not even pass grade nine. The word Inferiority complex would never appear in her dictionary. The person who should be ashamed of her inferiority was Ling Tian. She had played a tune 17 times wrong, and she had learned from an international piano master. It was really embarrassing. Ling Tian looked at Ling Mo, who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, in confusion. Her sweet voice was tinged with a hint of gloominess. What are you smiling about? Do I have to tell you? For a little white lotus like you, I would take you out. Ling Mo, who punched the piano keys passionately, suddenly met Ling Tians round eyes. Her voice was cold and chilling. Ling Tian instantly became angry. She got up from the seat and whispered in Ling Mos ear, enunciating each word clearly. What? Youre an outsider, and you still dare to behave atrociously in my territory? Why dont you look in the mirror and see how much you weigh? 44 kilograms, five kilograms lighter than you. I cant help it, I cant put on weight. Ling Mo kicked off the canvas shoes on her feet, grabbed the disposable shoes handed over by the maid, and went upstairs without looking back. All that was left was a room full of people with different expressions staring at each other. Ling Tian was prone to gaining weight. Whenever she heard someone talking about her weight, her whole body was like a powder keg, instantly explosive. She glared at Ling Mos slender back and shot back. A b * stard with no mother! Xiao Tian, have you forgotten what mother told you? If a dog bites you, can you bite it back? Su Yu twisted her slender waist and walked towards Ling Tian.. Chapter 3 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Tians face was filled with displeasure, and there was an obvious hint of anger in her voice. Mom, quickly get dad to send this little fox back to the countryside! Every time I see her, I always want to rush forward and tear her ice-cold mouth apart. Su Yus gaze turned cold as she lowered her voice. You think I dont want to? The bad thing is that those unscrupulous media are constantly asking about our familys private matters. If we send her back at this juncture, not only will it damage the Ling familys reputation, but also the interests of the Shi Jian Corporation. Hearing Su Yus analysis, Ling Tian was even more depressed. She turned her head and asked unwillingly, Is there no way to make her completely disappear from our sight? Of course there is. Su Yus eyes flashed, but she did not explain further. As she turned around, she took the little brown teddy from the maid and raised her voice, Xiao Tian, go and send that high-quality gown to your sister in my room. Okay. Ling Tian nodded obediently, and a harmless and pure smile appeared on her beautiful face. Although she did not know what Su Yu was up to, she was able to guess whats going on with the gown just by relying on her many years of experience. Thinking of this, she felt a little better. On the other side, Ling Mo had just entered the bedroom and had not taken off her clothes when she rushed to the shower. She used the shower to pour water on her face. The cold water hit her flawless cheek and it hurt a little. However, compared to the dull pain of being corroded by strong acid, this little bit of force was really nothing. Ling Tian pushed open the half-closed door and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Ling Mos strange behavior in the shower. She was a little puzzled. Isnt it uncomfortable to shower with clothes on? Or perhaps, all the country bumpkins from small places shower like this? Who? Ling Mo suddenly opened her tightly shut eyes and turned off the tap with a bang. She quickly turned around and draped the towel hanging from the shower door over her shoulder. Ling Tians heart raced when she met her sharp eyes. Why did her eyes look like they were about to eat someone? It was said that Ling Mo was used to living in the countryside and did not fall behind in fights. Looking at her, could it be that she wanted to beat her up? ! Ling Tian subconsciously took a step back, and even her words were not as fast as before. Sis Sis, this is the gown that mom specially made for you from Paris. Remember to put it on later. Put down the gown, and you can go out. The young girl standing in the shower retracted her eagle-like sharp eyes. As she pulled off the shower cap on the hook and used her heels to slam the bathroom door shut. She really did not want to waste her energy on a little white lotus like Ling Tian, who had two personalities. At this moment, she was lying obediently on her bed in her out-of-season gown, and her memory was still fresh in her mind. In her previous life, she had happily changed into the gown that Su Yu had meticulously prepared for her and attended Ling Tians birthday party. In the end, the gowns shoulder straps accidentally slipped off, and her upper body was only covered by a pair of chest stickers. Not only was she humiliated by the guests present, she was also trending on the Internet because of it. At that time, when she first returned to the Ling residence, she still did not know how vicious and treacherous people were. She naively thought that all of this was just an accident. Looking at it now, she was really ignorant back then. After she blow dried her hair, Ling Mo collapsed on the bed sleepily and sent a Wechat message. [ Seductive Fox, are you there? ] Ding! The black phone of unknown brand in her hand received a reply very quickly. [ Boss, Im here! ] [ Help me sort out all the relevant information about the wife of Shi Jian Groups chairman, Su Yu. ] [ Boss, please wait for a moment. It will take about half an hour. ] [ Okay. ] Ling Mo knew that the reason why Su Yu was able to tie Ling Yunlong firmly to her belt was not just because of her face. Only absolute benefits could completely subdue a rational and cold-blooded man like Ling Yunlong. The reason why she did not think of checking Su Yus background in her previous life was mainly because of the kindness in the depths of her heart. Although she had long known that Ling Tian did not like her, she did not know that Su Yu, who was once her mothers best friend, also had evil intentions. This time, she wanted to see what Su Yu wanted to do when she returned to the Ling residence. Miss Mo, have you changed? Madam and Second Miss have already gone to Dihuang Hotel. Master is still waiting for you downstairs. A series of urgent knocks came from outside the door. I got it. Ling Mo glanced at the pale pink overpriced gown on the bed and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips. The smile was 30% righteous and 70% cold. Ling Tians 17th birthday party was held in a rather grand manner. Ling Yunlong spent a large sum of money and booked the first-class lounge Dihuang Hotel. Su Yu also used her connections to invite almost all the wealthy ladies and daughters of socialites from all over Linjiang City. They toasted each other on the spot, cheers and laughter continued. As the birthday star today, Ling Tian was surrounded by the daughters of socialites. She looked extremely glamorous. Xiong Chumo looked enviously at Ling Tians sparkling diamond-studded gown and asked, Tian Tian, is this the gown that Ella made for this summers Fashion Week? I saw it in a fashion magazine a few days ago. Yes, this is a birthday present from my mom who specially ordered it for me from Paris. Ling Tian had a sweet smile on her face. Her every move was like a princess. Little Tian, your mom is so good to you. If I could have one of Ellas custom-made gowns, I would be willing to eat dirt for half a month. The socialite daughters surrounding Ling Tian spoke one after another. Praises and compliments were incessantly heard. At this moment, Ling Mo gently held Ling Yunlongs arm. Under everyones astonished gazes, they slowly walked into the banquet hall. The out-of-season high-priced Ella gown she was wearing shone brightly at this moment. The light pink muslin dress accentuated her slender waist and long legs, making her skin whiter than snow. The most important thing was that Ling Mos cold temperament could always bring out the unique look of the top luxury brands. At first glance, she looked pure and lovely, but when one looked at her again, she looked incomparably beautiful. The noisy reception hall suddenly quieted down, and all eyes fell on Ling Mo. Xiong Chumo touched Ling Tians arm in astonishment and muttered, Why is she here? Isnt she in the countryside? My dad saw that she didnt study well in the countryside, so he brought her back. Who knew that she almost got expelled from First High School because she got zero in the trial exam Ling Tian looked at the elegant and noble Ling Mo unhappily, her eyes bursting with jealousy. She had never expected that a dress that was out of season could actually make Ling Mo Yan dominate the entire scene.. Chapter 4 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Xiong Chumo clicked her tongue in surprise. From what she knew, a girl who was forced to drop out of school was definitely not a good person. She was either a tacky simpleton or a fake woman who specialized in seducing men. In addition, she had heard from Ling Tian that Ling Mo had been seducing men everywhere in the countryside. She had a third miscarriage and her reputation was rotten to the core. Thinking of this, Xiong Chumos impression of Ling Mo became even worse. Su Yu, who was greeting the guests, followed everyones gaze and stared viciously at Ling Mo, who had a pure temperament and was as stunning as a superstar. It had to be said that Ling Mos temperament was indeed very outstanding. Even if she didnt do anything, she could easily become the center of attention. This scene reminded Su Yu of the time before Ling Mo was sent to the countryside. Seven years ago, Ling Mo, who was still in primary school, became the number one socialite in Linjiang City because of her outstanding temperament. At that time, almost all the princes of the wealthy families in the city were waiting for her to grow up. And Ling Tian, whom Su Yu had painstakingly nurtured, always looked dusty and unremarkable beside Ling Mos extravagance. Thinking of this, Su Yu subconsciously clenched her fists. It was not easy for her to push Ling Tian up to the position of the number one socialite. She absolutely could not tolerate Ling Mo jumping out again to ruin her work. Yunlong, why are you only here now? Director Li has been waiting for you for a long time. Su Yu came swaying gracefully in a wine-red embroidered cheongsam. Oh? Why is he looking for me? Su Yu lowered her voice and said, He said he wants to inject capital. Ling Yunlongs face lit up when he heard that. In the blink of an eye, he had forgotten about Ling Mo. He only cared to tell Su Yu, Bring me there quickly. Ling Mo was alone, but she did not feel awkward at all. She stood elegantly in the middle of the dance floor, quietly waiting for her childhood sweetheart who was about to enter the banquet hall. The guests present looked at Ling Mo, who had snow-white skin and a cold and indifferent temperament, from the corner of their eyes. They even whispered to each other from time to time. This is the eldest daughter of the Ling family who has been raised in the countryside for seven years? I think so. I didnt expect her to still be so beautiful! The little girl is so charming when she grows up. She has the demeanor of her mother when she was young. If you didnt mention it, I almost forgot. Her mother was really beautiful back then! Hearing the guests recognition of Ling Mo, Ling Tians small face, which was covered in delicate light makeup, turned pale with anger. Xiong Chumo saw through Ling Tians emotions at a glance. She grabbed her arm and urged her with a beaming expression, Tian Tian, shall we go and greet Ling Mo too? The socialites daughters who were surrounding Ling Tian heard Xiong Chumos words, and their interest was piqued, so they chimed in, I remember that when Ling Mo was ten years old, she won the Munich International Music Competition. I wonder if after so many years, shes still a match for Tian Tian? Shes been in the countryside for seven years, and she hasnt even touched the piano keys. In my opinion, theres no way shes a match for Tian Tian. Isnt she just a village girl? Shes even putting on an air of an international model. How ridiculous. Ling Tian kept all these criticisms to herself. Her angry face finally revealed a bright and beautiful smile. She gently held Xiong Chumos hand and said softly, Sister Mo is alone, and her expression is a little uncomfortable. Lets go talk to her? All the young ladies chimed in one after another. At the same time, they lamented that Ling Tian was just like her name. She was sweet and lovely, and she had a kind heart. At this moment, Liang Feifan, who had arrived late, coincidentally saw Ling Mo, who was standing in the middle of the dance floor like the Statue of Liberty. His good-looking brows furrowed slightly. He hesitated for a moment before coming back to his senses. Ling Mo keenly caught the sound of his hurried footsteps. She turned around unhurriedly. As she looked around, there was a hint of hostility in her eyes. Liang Feifan was wearing a well-tailored white suit. He was handsome and warm. At this moment, almost all the socialites on the scene were staring at the new young master of the Liang family who was only 20 years old with infatuation. The braver ones had already rushed forward to strike up a conversation. However, Liang Feifan was very indifferent to the girls interest. He politely and distantly nodded at them and walked towards Ling Mo. Xiong Chumo mistakenly thought that Liang Feifan was here for Ling Tian. She was both envious and jealous as she poked Ling Tians arm. Youre really lucky! The young master of the Liang family actually came personally to celebrate your birthday. Chumo, youre making fun of me again! Ling Tian blushed shyly. At this moment, she had already thrown Ling Mo to the back of her mind. She awkwardly tidied up the wrinkles on her gowns and shyly looked at the Prince Charming that she had long admired. Brother Feifan However, to her surprise, Liang Feifan did not seem to see her. He brushed past her indifferently and walked towards Ling Mo, who was only an arms length away from her. Ling Tian did not receive a response from Liang Feifan. She awkwardly swallowed the words that she had prepared for a long time. Her eyes were bloodshot as she stared at the calm and composed Ling Mo. At this moment, she was even more desperate to see Ling Mo make a fool of herself in that messed up gown. You still have the face to come to Xiao Tians birthday party? After so long, what she had been waiting for was not a simple How have you been?. Just like the last time, Liang Feifan still had an arrogant attitude. He was still cold. He was still aggressive. Ling Mo suppressed the last trace of nostalgia in her eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly. Its my freedom to come or not. It doesnt seem to have anything to do with you, does it? Who gave you the confidence to speak to me like that? Liang Feifan furrowed his brows and his expression became even colder. Ling Mo shrugged and said indifferently, The young master of the Liang family has such an imposing manner. Liang Feifan had never thought that the girl that he had once loved to the bone would treat him so coldly. Could it be that he could not compare to the wild man that she had met in the remote countryside? Thinking about the past few years, Ling Mo had miscarried three times because of those good-for-nothing hooligans, Liang Feifan was even angrier, You want to build a monument after becoming a whore? Dont think that I dont know how many dirty things you have done behind my back all these years. Ling Mos eyes moved slightly. This was the second time she had heard these words. The last time, she only noticed Liang Feifans extremely vile attitude and didnt delve into what he meant by dirty things. Now, she had developed some interest in the dirty things that he said. However, due to the many eyes, Ling Mo didnt want to alert the enemy. She only added without feeling any pain, Its a pity that the young master of the Liang family doesnt become a city security officer. He really has a wide range of control. She would never forget how Liang Feifan had humiliated her at Ling Tians birthday party in her previous life. At that time, he had mocked her for being lowly and at the same time, under the heckling of the crowd, he had poured the red wine in his hand onto her body without hesitation. Recalling the past, Ling Mo suddenly felt that her past self was laughable and pathetic. Even though she knew that Liang Feifan was not a good person, even though she was hurt badly by him, she still could not be heartless enough to completely break away from him. If this were to happen now, she would definitely beat Liang Feifan into a pulp! Liang Feifan put one hand into his pocket while his other hand forcefully grabbed onto Ling Mos slender arm. He gritted his teeth and said, You really went through a lot of trouble just to get my attention. Move your dirty hands away. Ling Mo frowned slightly, trying to break free from Liang Feifans shackles. With a push and a pull, the crisp sound of cloth tearing could be heard from Ling Mos chest. Everyone looked back and saw that the shoulder straps of Ling Mos gown had broken. Two soft pink straps were hanging on her chest.. Chapter 5 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation For a moment, the banquet hall that was filled with laughter suddenly fell silent. Everyone turned their heads at the same time and looked curiously at Ling Mo, who was covering her chest with both hands in the middle of the dance floor. Liang Feifan obviously did not expect such a change to happen. He subconsciously wanted to take off his suit jacket to help her out, but he met her cold eyes, the love buried deep in his heart quietly turned into a faint sneer at the corner of his lips. Ling Tian bit her lower lip and stared at Liang Feifan without looking sideways, deeply afraid that his soul and spirit would be seduced by the naturally charming Ling Mo. It was only when she saw the disgust in his eyes that her heart, which was in her throat, finally calmed down. And after a moment of silence, the socialite heiresses surrounding her exploded. Ling Mo is too shameless, isnt she? To seduce the young master of the Liang family, she actually took off her clothes in public. What an eyesore. Just by looking at her appearance, I thought she was an immortal sister who was as light as a chrysanthemum. I didnt expect How can such a person be called a socialite? Her entire body is full of coquettishness! Su Yu noticed the commotion on Ling Mos side, so she twisted her slender waist and walked over quickly: Mo Mo, whats going on? Ling Mo blinked, her long eyelashes fluttering slightly. Her voice was soft, Aunty, I dont know whats going on either. The shoulder strap of the gown broke without any warning. Su Yu frowned and shook her head firmly. Thats impossible. The gown youre wearing is a high-quality one from Ella. Theres absolutely no problem with the quality. The moment these words were said, everyone looked at Ling Mo with even more contempt. Since there was no problem with the quality of the gown, then the spearhead of the problem must be Ling Mo himself. Thinking about it, she must have created such a huge commotion in order to seduce Liang Feifan, hoping that Liang Feifan would save the damsel in distress. Unfortunately, the young master of the Liang family was unmoved. He looked on coldly with an ashen face and had no intention of helping her out. Liang Feifan put his hands in his pockets. There was a hint of ridicule hidden in his deep eyes, Youre already taking off your clothes in public? Dont tell me youre suspecting that Ive done something to my gown? Ling Mos hands that were covering her chest slid down an inch, revealing a large corner of the tender lotus-colored round collar under her gown. Xiong Chumo crossed her arms across her chest and suddenly added, So youre saying that you didnt intentionally tear off the shoulder straps of the dress? Aunty had meticulously prepared a high-quality dress for me. I liked it too much. Why would I purposely tear off the shoulder straps? The corners of Ling Mos lips curled up. The splendor around her body was not weakened by the broken shoulders strap at all. Su Yus face sank. She had never expected that Ling Mo would still be able to stand calmly in the middle of the dance floor after such a huge embarrassment. Fortunately, she had achieved her goal. The celebrities present treated Ling Mo as a big joke. Under such circumstances, Ling Mo had no way of reversing her reputation. However, at this moment, a sharp-eyed wealthy lady suddenly came forward and pointed at the tender lotus-colored vest on Ling Mos body that was almost one with her skin color. She asked, Whats with the round-necked vest under your gown? When everyone heard this, only then did they notice the lotus-colored vest on Ling Mos body that was not eye-catching under Ying Meis banquet lights. Ling Mo appeared to be very obedient as she answered softly, Im not used to wearing a gown, so I put on a normal outfit under the gown. As soon as she finished speaking, the people present instantly understood. Since the Ling familys Eldest Miss was such a conservative person, why would she tear off the shoulder straps of her gown in public? From this, it seemed that the person who tampered with the gown was most likely Su Yu, who had meticulously customized this high-end gown for her. This time, the focus of public opinion smoothly shifted from Ling Mo to Su Yu, the stepmother. Everyone knew that Su Yu was a mistress. On the surface, everyone would take advantage of her identity as the wife of Shi Jian Groups chairman and give her some face. However, this was not the case in the dark. Most of these rich ladies came from illustrious backgrounds. The one they looked down on the most was the heartless mistress who specialized in seducing other peoples husbands. Su Yu noticed that the rich ladies looked at her with a deeper meaning. Her eyes were burning and she wanted nothing more than to tear off Ling Mos round-necked vest on the spot. She never expected that this little fox Ling Mo would actually dare to play dirty tricks on her. This time, it was all for naught. Ling Mo covered herself up, so the slut theory was naturally not applicable. What was even more hateful was that this fire actually burned her without any warning! The rich ladies looked at the lonely and helpless Ling Mo with pity. They had already regarded Su Yu as the instigator of all these changes. Miss Ling, why are your clothes so tattered? Another rich lady pointed at Ling Mos tattered round collar and looked at her with sympathy. I Ling Mo seemed a little uneasy. She raised her eyes and glanced at Su Yu, who had an ugly expression. Then, she lowered his head and carefully said, Aunty, I didnt do it on purpose. Su Yu did not expect Ling Mo to play dirty tricks on her. She was so angry that her eyes almost rolled back and she fainted on the spot. Liang Feifan had wanted to accuse Ling Mo of being unscrupulous in order to seduce him. But when he caught a glimpse of Ling Mos round collar vest, which was full of small holes, he felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. Ling Tian was keenly aware of the strange emotion in Liang Feifans eyes, and her hands subconsciously clenched into a fist. Not far away, Ling Yunlong, who was chatting with Director Li of Guanghua Industries, took in the whole mess, and his hatred for Ling Mo deepened. A month ago, Shi Jian Group was exposed in a fake sales scandal, and Ling Yunlongs reputation, which he had accumulated for many years, was facing a huge crisis that would collapse overnight. In order to save his reputation and the groups reputation, Ling Yunlong decided to take back Ling Mo, who had been placed in the countryside. For many years, he had been announcing to the public that Ling Mos health was not good and that she was recuperating in the countryside. At this juncture, he was deeply afraid that the media would dig up other dirt, so he had no choice but to take his daughter, whom he had not seen for seven years, back to the Ling residence. He did not expect that the moment Ling Mo returned, she would cause such a scene. What bad luck! He glared at Ling Mo fiercely. Just as he was thinking of reprimanding her after the banquet, he met her clear yet sharp eyes. Dad, Im not feeling well. Ill go back first. Ling Yunlong had yet to come back to his senses when Ling Mo had already walked in front of him. Director Li of Guanghua Industries gently shook the goblet in his hand and sized up the tall and slender Ling Mo with a lecherous gaze. He looked at Ling Yunlong with a knowing look, Who is this? Ling Mo glanced at the lecherous Director Li who was bald on top of his head disinterestedly before she turned around and left without looking back. The reason why she left in such a hurry was not because she was worried about being reprimanded by Ling Yunlong. The most important reason was that in Ling Tians 17th birthday party in her previous life, there was an armed kidnapping that shocked the entire country. And she was the protagonist who was kidnapped by the gangsters and even made the headlines of the social news. On the top floor of the Dihuang Hotel, Qin Beiming leaned lazily on the railing, silently observing everything in the banquet hall. Ling Mo left, and he also extinguished the half-lit cigarette in his hand. Amidst the lingering smoke, his deep eyes seemed to blend into the silent night, lonely and otherworldly.. Chapter 6 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Lu Jinjiu was next to Qin Beiming. He tilted his head and rested his chin on one hand. He looked at Ling Mo, who was walking in the banquet hall, with interest, In terms of ability to cause trouble, if the mistress of the Ling family is second, no one would dare to claim first. The pretty daughter of the Ling family is actually being bullied to the point of making a fool of herself. Huo Yunting, on the other hand, said, The one making a fool of herself is the mistress of the Ling family. It is not a glorious thing to mistreat your stepdaughter. Dont be fooled and think that the daughter of the Ling family is soft and weak. She definitely does not need the sympathy of others. You are right. Lu Jinjiu finished the glass of red wine in one gulp. He turned his head and asked Qin Beiming solemnly, Third brother, the Second Miss Lings birthday party has gathered all the socialites daughters in Linjiang City. Take a closer look and see if there are any girls who are pleasing to the eye. Do you think that our third brother has been single for 24 years for nothing? Huo Yunting sneered. In his impression, Qin Beiming was a female repellant. On one hand, he was constantly exuding powerful hormones, on the other hand, he had an indifferent attitude that made people love and hate him. Lu Jinjiu pursed his lips and said helplessly, Third brother, do you know that aunty is questioning your sexual orientation and wont let me play with you anymore? If this goes on, you might lose me forever. Qin Beiming pursed his sexy thin lips and walked steadily towards the elevator. Lets go and see the girl. The girl? Huo Yunting was intrigued and followed behind Qin Beiming. He wanted to see what a girl who piqued the interest of Qin Beiming would look like. Third brother, are you hiding a girl from us? Lu Jinjius eyes lit up. In a blink of an eye, he had already come up with a name for Qin Beimings future child. Qin Beiming: He only wanted to go and investigate because he felt that the look in Ling Mos eyes were extremely similar to his from many years ago. As for romantic interest, he had never thought about it at all. On the other hand, Ling Mo walked out of the banquet hall in a dashing manner and rushed towards the elevator at the right time. As expected, the group of gunmen arrived within 30 seconds. If they were not armed, the group of gunmen would not be her match. The bad thing was that they were armed with contraband weapons. No matter how skilled she was, she could not be faster than a gun. In her previous life, she was kidnapped to an abandoned factory in the suburbs because she did not have any weapons. Although she managed to kill the group of criminals after a few days, everyone in the country knew that she had been kidnapped. Even though she returned unscathed, no one was willing to believe her innocence anymore. There were even people who spread rumors that in order to save her own life, she had committed herself to being a vicious kidnapper several times, which was why she had escaped death. Thinking of the past, Ling Mos clear eyes were tainted with a layer of hostility. Before this, she had indeed suspected that all of this was a trap set by Su Yu, and she had also ordered people to thoroughly investigate Su Yus background several times. However, the top intelligence agents in the dark net had not been able to find any information about Su Yu. In addition, she had inadvertently caught a glimpse of Su Yu driving to the temple to pray for her mother. Only then did she completely dispel her suspicions. Ling Mo subconsciously looked at her watch. There were only 15 seconds left before the criminals arrived. However, the screen beside the elevator showed that the elevator was still on the 1st floor! 15 seconds was definitely not enough to get from the 1st to the 25th floor. In a moment of desperation, Ling Mo had no choice but to press the button for the CEOs private elevator. She cursed in her heart. There was no way that the mysterious financier behind Dihuang Hotel would sit around and play in the elevator. Therefore, the probability of her succeeding was lower than winning the lottery. To her surprise, the moment the elevator door opened, there were three men standing in the elevator with their hair combed back. They were as tall as international male models! Lu Jinjiu, who was standing on the far left, had long and narrow eyes. He was smiling as he greeted Ling Mo, Miss Ling, are you waiting for the elevator? Huo Yunting, who was leaning on the right side, did not even lift his eyes. He had already fallen in love with someone. Other than Song Xingwan, he had never looked at any other woman. Qin Beiming stood in the middle with one hand in his pocket. His aura was as strong and cold as the dark night. He just looked at Ling Mo. When he saw the torn round collar on her neck, his eyes could not help but freeze. Ling Mo frowned slightly. She could feel that the three men in front of her were not ordinary people. And the one standing in the middle was the most dangerous. But then again, the three of them were so good-looking. Perhaps they were specially recruited by the Dihuang Hotel. They should be easier to deal with than the gunmen. With that thought in mind, Ling Mos tense nerves relaxed slightly. Just as she was about to step into the elevator, Lu Jinjiu pressed the button to close the door first. Goodbye, Miss Ling. Ling Mo lifted her skirt with both hands and was thinking about whether she should force her way into the elevator when she inadvertently met Qin Beimings eagle-like sharp eyes. Just one glance was enough to send chills down her spine. Forget it. The words not to be trifled with were written clearly on this mans face. It was better for her not to provoke him. In the CEOs private elevator, Qin Beiming frowned slightly and asked unhappily, Who told you to close the door? Ah, this Lu Jinjiu did not react in time. He scratched his head in confusion and said, Third brother, dont you hate sharing an elevator with women the most? From what he remembered, Qin Beiming had never shared an elevator with any woman before. He was just doing something nice to save the girl from being mercilessly thrown out of the elevator by Qin Beiming. Huo Yunting pursed his lips and chuckled, You destroyed third brothers good intention just like that. Could it be that the young lady that third brother has taken a fancy to is Miss Ling? Lu Jinjiu only realized after Huo Yunting pointed out that Qin Beiming was acting strangely today. Qin Beiming saw the panic in Ling Mos eyes at first glance. He thought that she must have encountered some difficult problem. Although he had always disdained to help others, seeing that the young ladys looks were to his liking, it was not impossible for him to help her. When the elevator stopped on the 25th floor again, Qin Beiming changed his dignified appearance and strode out of the elevator. Lu Jinjiu was about to follow him, but Huo Yunting grabbed him and said, Jiu, give third brother some space. Ha, third brother doesnt know how to pick up girls. Im just trying to help. Lu Jinjiu said that, but his body did not comply. One of his legs that had just stepped out of the elevator quickly retracted and said, Forget it. Ill help third brother check out Miss Lings background first.. Chapter 7 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation When Qin Beiming walked out of the elevator, Ling Mo was already gone. He glanced at the 23 with the rising arrow on the elevator screen, then turned his head and looked at the dark stairway through the half-open glass door. Logically speaking, no matter how impatient the girl was, she should still be able to wait 10 seconds instead of taking the long and narrow stairs. Not to mention the fact that she was wearing high heels, the time difference between walking down from the 25th floor was definitely more time-consuming than waiting for the elevator. At the same time, the banquet hall was in a mess because of the intrusion of several armed robbers. The socialite daughters present were like frightened birds who fled in all directions. Qin Beiming looked coldly at the messy banquet hall. Due to the continuous screams and smashing sounds in his ears, his originally calm and tranquil emotions became agitated. He subconsciously put his hand into his trouser pocket, but after looking around, other than half a pack of unfinished cigarettes, there was nothing else in his trouser pocket. F * ck.. Why did he forget to bring medicine every time his illness flared up? Qin Beimings face was dark. He wanted to turn back, but he accidentally heard someone in the banquet hall shouting Ling Mos name anxiously. Ling Mo That girl couldnt have been kidnapped by the robbers, right? Qin Beiming retracted his hand that was about to press the elevator button. He turned around and walked briskly towards the banquet hall. Han Shu, get someone to come to the 25th floor to handle the emergency situation. He called the boss of Dihuang Hotel while enduring the bone-eroding pain all over his body. His eagle-like sharp eyes scanned the banquet hall that was in chaos. As his eyes moved, he finally caught sight of Ling Mos beautiful figure. Although she had already changed into a mens casual hoodie, he still recognized her at a glance. As he watched her swiftly enter the mens washroom, Qin Beiming followed closely behind her without any hesitation. Ling Mo knew clearly in her heart that the group of robbers target was her. In order to find her, they would definitely turn the entire floor upside down. And the mens washroom was undoubtedly the safest place at the moment. Even if someone broke in, they would not suspect a person who was dressed like a man in a short period of time. But even so, she still felt a little nervous in her heart. It was not that she was afraid of death, but that she was afraid of being famous. If she revealed her extraordinary skills in front of everyone, she might become famous overnight. At that time, her every move would be infinitely magnified. She loved freedom by nature. She would never allow her life to be in the spotlight of the media. Thud, thud, thud A series of low footsteps disturbed Ling Mos thoughts, causing her to quickly enter the not-so-spacious cubicle in the mens washroom. Qin Beiming looked around under the dim yellow lights. His cold and low voice echoed, Have you seen enough? Ling Mo, who was peeking at Qin Beiming through the gap of the cubicle door, took an awkward step back. She suppressed her voice and said in a low and muffled voice, Are you talking to me? Qin Beiming put his hands in his pockets and stood in front of the cubicle. His thin lips subconsciously curled into an attractive arc, Miss Ling, if you dont come out soon, the robbers will arrive. You wont be able to leave even if you want to. Are you following me? Thinking about how it was this pretentious man in front of her that prevented her from taking the CEOs private elevator to escape in time, Ling Mo felt the anger rising in her heart. Hearing the hostility in Ling Mos words, Qin Beiming lowered his head and smiled faintly, You have quite a temper. Tell me, what do you want from me? Even though there was still a wooden door between them, Ling Mo could still sense the dangerous aura on his body. This aura was much stronger than those armed robbers. It was also because of this that she firmly blocked the wooden door of the cubicle, afraid that he would suddenly barge in. Qin Beiming was slightly stunned. After thinking for a moment, he mumbled in confusion, I dont know. At first, he was just a little confused. How could a girl who had yet to experience the world have such sharp eyes. But when he approached, he suddenly forgot the reason why he was looking for her. In addition, his senses were stimulated by the screams in the banquet hall. Qin Beiming, who was on the verge of having a seizure, couldnt even concentrate. Since you dont know what to do, then go somewhere else. Ling Mo was so angry that she kicked the door, causing Qin Beiming, who was standing in front of the door, to be hit by it. Did you swallow a bomb? Qin Beiming frowned. With lightning speed, he took a step forward and grabbed Ling Mos wrist. Who asked you to block the way? Ling Mo didnt really want to hit him. After all, she couldnt do it to a handsome man. However, the situation was urgent, so she had to get rid of this annoying tail quickly to protect herself. She took a deep breath and wanted to use brute force to get rid of his shackles, but she found that his strength was amazing. Hey If you dont let go, Ill do it for real. After sensing the huge disparity in strength between the two of them, Ling Mo felt a sense of defeat. All these years, she had never lost in terms of strength alone. She did not expect that she would actually be crushed by a troublemaker today. Theres someone outside. Qin Beiming suddenly pursed his thin lips and abruptly pushed Ling Mo into a nearby cubicle. He then turned his hand around and locked the door. Their eyes met, and the viciousness in Ling Mos eyes intensified. She had already realized that she was no match for this man in front of her. If he wanted to do something in this narrow cubicle, she could say that she had no room to resist. As she thought about it, the space between her eyebrows twitched violently. Even her words were not as sharp as before. The mens washroom is not a lawless place. I advise you to have some self-respect. Didnt you offend me first? Perhaps the air in the cubicle was too stuffy, or perhaps the symptoms of Qin Beimings illness were even more obvious. He began to pull on his tie in a frenzy, and the way he looked at Ling Mo became even more terrifying. Ling Mo cursed under her breath. She had never expected the plot of the first day of her rebirth to deviate so much. She tentatively reached out her hand and carefully went around his waist, trying to break open the cubicles latch. From Qin Beimings perspective, the proud and cold girl in front of him was trying to lean on him. Normally, he would definitely push her away. But at this moment, because of the faint and strange fragrance on her body that was different from perfume, he subconsciously stretched out his arm and wrapped it around her waist. What brand of perfume are you using? Stinky Hooligan. Ling Mo turned her body sideways, raised her long legs, stretched them out, and fiercely pushed them upwards, aiming straight for Qin Beimings crotch. She was already used to this kind of lousy pick-up tactic on the streets. In the past few years, there were quite a number of young people who had tried to pick her up like this. However, those hooligans who tried to touch her did not end up well. They either lost their arms or legs. Or worse, they had their third leg broken. Chapter 8 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation You! Qin Beiming frowned and suddenly let go of the girl who was baring her fangs and claws in front of him. He subconsciously protected his vital parts. What? Dont let me see you again. Otherwise, Ill beat you up every time I see you. Ling Mo curled her lips and pushed him to the side. She broke the door that seemed like it would fall apart anytime with her big foot. At the same time, the kidnappers who had been running around the banquet hall suddenly realized and swarmed into the mens washroom that was not spacious. Boss, do you think that little fox is really hiding in the mens washroom? What nonsense are you spouting? Hurry up and find her! We must deal with her before the hotel security arrives. Alright! As soon as he said that, the kidnappers mustered all their strength and charged into the cubicles one by one. Ling Mo knew that she could not avoid them. Just as she was about to face them head-on, Qin Beiming suddenly pulled her into his embrace. Trust me for once, huh? I can trust you, but theres no need. Ling Mo realized that Qin Beiming wanted to cover for her. After hesitating for a moment, she finally broke free of his hand and with a clean sweep, knocked down the two unsuspecting kidnappers outside the cubicles. Where did this brat come from? Brothers, charge! The kidnappers who had fallen to the ground stared fiercely at Ling Mo who had appeared out of thin air. For a moment, they did not recognize that she was the Miss Ling who the financier had specifically asked them to kidnap. Just a few of you brats dare to behave atrociously in front of your me? Ling Mos long and narrow eyes revealed a hint of indifference. The corners of her lips curled up into a sneer that was full of ridicule. As she spoke, she had already snatched the pistol from the hands of the fallen kidnapper, pulled the trigger in one breath, and heavily pressed it against the head of the kidnapper. Speak, who sent you here? Big brother, please spare my life. I am stupid enough to offend you. Please forgive me. The leader of the kidnappers, who was paralyzed on the ground, was so scared that his entire body turned stiff, and he repeatedly begged for mercy. The rest of the kidnappers did not dare to act rashly when they saw that their boss was being held at gunpoint. They could only stare at Ling Mo, who was emitting waves of cold air under the dim light. Who the f * ck asked you to say such useless nonsense? Ling Mos elbow, which was propped on the chest of the kidnappers, pushed down fiercely, causing the man under her to howl in pain. Qin Beiming put his hands in his pockets and stood in the cubicle in a dignified manner. He looked down at Ling Mo, who was squatting on the ground and was full of wildness. His good-looking eyebrows could not help but furrow. From the moment he saw her, he had noticed the wild and uninhibited wildness in her eyes. But the problem was that she still looked so young. It was fine if her behavior was a little rough, but when she was fierce, how could she say such dirty words? Qin Beiming shook his head disapprovingly. For the first time, he wanted to be a good person. He wanted to lead this arrogant little wild cat back to the right path. The kidnapper, who was completely immobilized by Ling Mos single handedly, had a sad expression on his face. In order to gain sympathy, he even blinked his eyes innocently, Big brother, I know Im wrong. Who instructed you to come? Whats the purpose? Were only following orders. We really dont know whos behind this. All we know is that the person has a feud with the eldest daughter of the Ling family in Linjiang City. He spent a lot of money to have us kidnap her and defile her before uploading the video online. Ha He was indeed vicious. Ling Mo was confident that she had never stood in the way of others, and she had never taken the initiative to cause trouble. However, she did not expect that there would be some clowns who overestimated themselves and came looking for a beating. Qin Beiming pursed his thin lips and stared at Ling Mo, whose eyes were emitting a fierce light. All of a sudden, he seemed to understand why there were so many things that he could not understand in Ling Mos eyes. Perhaps, it was because she had experienced too many hardships that she wrapped herself in an indestructible armour. In this aspect, they were strangely similar. The kidnappers in the bathroom were all intimidated by Ling Mos cold laughter. They asked in a trembling voice, What What are you laughing at? Im in a good mood today. Ill leave you guys a way out for now. If you know whats good for you, get the hell out of here. Ling Mo slowly got up and kicked the terrified kidnapper in front of her. After the kidnapper fled, she took off her mens hoodie swiftly and straightened the knitted cardigan underneath as if nothing had happened. Qin Beiming quietly turned his head away. Even though she was not naked, he still politely avoided looking at her. After she took off her black casual pants and was left with a knee-length skirt, he fixed his gaze on her again. Miss Ling, where did you learn how to fight? Ling Mo walked out of the mens washroom without turning her head back. Her voice was cold but carried a sense of arrogance that ordinary people could not match, Do you think that someone can be my master? As soon as she finished speaking, she took out another lollipop from her trouser pocket. With a whoosh, she shattered the camera lens on the corridor outside the washroom. Qin Beimings deep eyes darkened. Unlike ordinary people, he did not think that she was talking big. On the contrary, he felt that she was already quite low-key. The magnificent brilliance that occasionally leaked out might only be the tip of the iceberg. After a while, Qin Beiming shook off Ling Mos cool image in his mind. He slowly knelt down and stretched out his two well-proportioned fingers to pick up the mens vest that she had thrown aside. In the reception hall on the first floor of the Dihuang Hotel, a continuous stream of flustered socialites daughters and rich ladies swarmed out. Meanwhile, the media and entertainment reporters who were waiting for them squeezed into the reception hall one after another. In the blink of an eye, Ling Yunlong and Su Yu were surrounded by the crowd of entertainment reporters. Mr. Ling, are the armed robbers who caused a large-scale panic at your daughters birthday party assigned by their enemies? Ling Yunlongs face was livid. He had originally planned to use Ling Tians birthday party to win over the hearts of the people, but he did not expect such a big mistake to happen. However, facing the microphone that was about to hit his mouth, he could only try his best to hold back the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice, Thank you for the concern of the media. Tonights incident was sudden, and it did cause some chaos. Fortunately, none of the invited guests were hurt. At present, this matter has been handed over to the police. After the criminal is caught, the police will announce it to the public as soon as possible. Thinking that they could not get any information out of Ling Yunlong, the reporters passed the microphone to Su Yu, the madam of the Ling family who was once a movie queen and was now in the limelight. According to the feedback from the invited guests, Miss Ling, who had just been brought back to the Ling residence, mysteriously disappeared during the banquet. She is suspected to have been kidnapped by the kidnappers. What do you think? Su Yu maintained her usual calmness in the face of the media. She gently held the nearest microphone with one hand and said in a gentle voice, Mo Mo was a little unwell and left early. There was no such thing as being kidnapped by the kidnappers. These tabloid reporters had yet to dig out any gossip that was worth publishing on the internet, so they continued to ask Su Yu, unwilling to give up, The outside world is saying that you and Miss Ling are on bad terms.. Is that true? Chapter 9 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Yunlongs face became even gloomier. He suddenly interrupted the reporters question and coldly spat out the words, Empty words without any evidence. The reason why he took Ling Mo back to the Ling residence was mainly to clear his name on the incident of the Shi Jian Group selling fake products, and to re-establish a good and trustworthy image in front of the public. At this juncture, he desperately wanted to create a harmonious family atmosphere to consolidate his social image. Naturally, he did not want to be the topic of entertainment news. I heard that Miss Ling was expelled from many schools. Have you discussed this matter with Miss Ling in private? The entertainment reporter wanted to confirm the fact that Su Yu and Ling Mo had a bad relationship. They tried to go past the bodyguards who blocked their way and once again put the microphone in front of Su Yu. Su Yu patiently listened to the questions from the entertainment reporter and explained methodically, As a good mother, there must not be a moment of neglect in the education of her children. Based on the current situation, I very much hope to nurture another outstanding talent for the Ling family who would become a pillar of the country. Hearing her words, the entertainment reporter who was keen on digging up the grudges between the rich and powerful could not find the slightest mistake for a moment. Although she did not directly deny the fact that she and Ling Mo had fallen out, this explanation had already shown how much she valued Ling Mo. After ten to twenty minutes, the entertainment reporters still could not find anything out. Just as they were about to finish their work and return, a female attendant with a flustered expression suddenly appeared in the hotel lobby. She was wearing high heels as she jogged all the way to Ling Yunlong. She panted and said, Mr. Ling, according to the surveillance footage on the 25th floor, the hotel staff discovered that a guest dressed like your daughter had entered the mens washroom alone half an hour ago. After she entered the washroom, a number of kidnappers also broke into the mens washroom. What did you say? Ling Yunlongs eyes widened in surprise. He had thought that Ling Mo had already left first and had never considered the fact that the Dihuang Hotel had a huge number of customers and that there was no way to call a taxi at the entrance. The female attendant quickly added, According to the surveillance footage, after the kidnapper left the mens washroom, the guest who looks like your daughter has yet to leave the washroom. Our staff has already rushed to the 25th floor. Mr. Ling, please be patient. Su Yu, who was next to Ling Yunlong, was no longer as calm and composed as before. Her eyebrows were knitted together, Yunlong, I remember that after Mo Mo left, she changed into a casual sweater and went to the washroom. Do you think Mo Mo was really Why did she go to the mens washroom? Ling Yunlong held his forehead with one hand. He was really annoyed by Ling Mo. Why did she go to the mens washroom all of a sudden? This was great. Even if she could return unscathed, this group of media could still make up news about the Ling familys eldest miss having an affair with someone in the mens washroom. Liang Feifan, who was standing beside Ling Tian, felt very upset when he heard that Ling Mo had most likely been killed by the kidnappers. He had originally planned to go to the twenty-fifth floor to investigate the matter, but when he thought about how Ling Mo had already gotten together with some gangsters three years ago, his anxious heart felt as if it had been splashed by ice water. He felt a chill down his spine. Ling Tian silently observed Liang Feifans gloomy expression. Suddenly, her eyes were filled with tears. Brother Feifan, what should we do now? Sister is no match for the kidnappers. Could she have been Defiled? Her body has been dirty for a long time. It makes no difference. Liang Feifans tone was cold, and there was a hint of coldness in his words. But Im still very worried about her. Ling Tian lowered her head slightly, allowing the pearl-like tears to fall visibly. Liang Feifan looked at the innocent and kind girl in front of him, and his heart moved. He gently pulled her into his arms and comforted her in a deep voice, Relax. Nothing will happen. I hope so. Ling Tian leaned gently against Liang Feifans chest. Her voice was still a little choked up, but her eyes narrowed in delight like a crescent moon. In the hotel lobby, almost everyone was still anxiously waiting for the final result, but Su Yu had already gotten someone to distribute snacks and mineral water to the entertainment reporters. She had a worried expression on her face as she greeted the reporters again and again, Mo Mo is still young and has a long way to go in the future. I hope that everyone can show mercy and not publish the news of her being humiliated by the kidnappers tonight. Sure. The entertainment reporters agreed kindly on the surface, but in reality, their index fingers had already pressed the shutter button on their cameras. They were waiting to see Ling Mos disheveled appearance when she was carried down. Su Yu saw these small actions and was secretly pleased. This time, she did not believe that Ling Mo could be resurrected. Even if she was alive, her reputation would be ruined. Dad, Aunty, why didnt you tell me that you were leaving? Just when everyone thought that Ling Mo was doomed, she walked gracefully towards them from the elevator. When the media saw the main character appear, they all grabbed their cameras and microphones and rushed towards Ling Mo, who acted as if nothing had happened. Miss Ling, it is said that you encountered armed robbers in the mens washroom. Is this true? Why did Miss Ling suddenly rush into the mens washroom? Ling Mo glanced at Ling Yunlong, who was not far away. His face was livid and his eyes were filled with anger, but there was not the slightest bit of heartache. He calmly retracted his gaze and asked with slight puzzlement, Why cant I understand what you are saying? At this moment, Su Yu had already squeezed into the vast crowd. She held Ling Mos hand with concern and allowed two streams of tears to pour out from her eyes. Mo Mo, this is all my fault. Its my negligence that made you suffer. Ling Mo shook her head sensibly and said softly, Aunty, what happened? I accidentally fell asleep in the pantry just now. Hearing Ling Mos explanation, Su Yu immediately felt that something was very strange. She had clearly seen Ling Mo rush into the mens washroom, which was why she had let the group of kidnappers go to the washroom to capture her. Logically speaking, Ling Mo should not have been standing in front of her safe and sound. But just looking at her current appearance, she was so quiet and calm. There was no trace of being humiliated at all. Miss Ling, didnt you go to the mens washroom on the 25th floor just now? A reporter could not hold back his impatience and took the lead to break the strange silence in the hotel lobby. Ling Mo raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, Who told you that I went to the mens washroom? Just now, I was a little dizzy and took a break in the pantry alone. Hearing that, another reporter excitedly asked Ling Mo, Miss Ling, you really didnt go to the mens washroom? Mrs. Ling said she saw you enter the washroom with her own eyes.. Chapter 10 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Mo curled her lips and slowly looked at Su Yu, whose smile gradually froze. She asked softly, Aunty, did you see wrongly? Even if I wanted to go to the washroom, I should have entered the ladies washroom. Why did aunty tell them that I entered the mens washroom? Su Yu was rendered speechless by Ling Mos question. She stammered for a long time but could not come up with a reason. When everyone saw that the eloquent Su Yu could not answer for a long time, public opinion once again favoured Ling Mo. Looks like Movie Queen Su has quite a prejudice against her step-daughter. Isnt that so? She was just spreading lies. Even if a normal person saw their own daughter break into the mens washroom, they wouldnt say it out loud, right? Thats right, even if its true, they shouldnt be so unreasonable. Moreover, this Miss Ling is standing here perfectly fine. She doesnt look like shes been harmed at all. Indeed, there are many grudges between wealthy families. Poor Miss Ling. She lost her mother at a young age, and now shes being oppressed by such a vicious stepmother. Itll be difficult for her to succeed. Ling Yunlong watched as his capable wife was ridiculed by a group of people. He quickly weighed the pros and cons and made up his mind to sacrifice one for the other. To know the truth, why dont we just watch the surveillance footage? Yes, father is right. Ling Mo agreed and nodded. Her eyes were clear and her eyelashes trembled slightly. She had the image of an innocent and obedient girl. She was especially lovable. Now, lets just check surveillance cameras. Su Yu couldnt wait to release the surveillance cameras to confirm that Ling Mo had indeed entered and exited the mens washroom. However, when she met Ling Mos clear and flawless eyes, she felt an inexplicable fear in her heart. Strange Why was this little foxs gaze so terrifying? At first glance, she looked innocent and harmless. However, after a few more glances, she discovered that there was a terrifying dark vortex hidden under her bright black pupils. It was mysterious and unfathomable. Ling Yunlong saw that Su Yus face was gradually turning pale and asked with concern, Yuer, are you feeling unwell? Yuer, are you not feeling well? Su Yu shook her head, her voice was ever so gentle, Just now, because I was worried about Mo Mos safety, I broke out in a cold sweat, causing my limbs to be a little weak. When Ling Mo heard Su Yus words, her stomach suddenly churned. She did not expect that after so many years, Su Yus disgusting acting skills had actually improved by a lot. Now, she finally understood why Su Yu was able to beat Jin Zhi and Bai Hua, the two best actresses, by starring in the movie Red Lantern 20 years ago. To put it bluntly, Su Yu had been acting in real life from the beginning to the end. After the hotel manager inserted the USB flash drive that stored the surveillance footage into the wide-screen computer at the front desk of the hotel, dozens of people below the stage held their breaths and fought to squeeze to the front. Even Liang Feifan, who was as cold as ice, could not suppress the anxiety in his heart at this moment. He quietly put down Ling Tians hand and strode to the computer screen. Ling Tian bit her lower lip. It was not easy for her to restrain the jealousy that was about to burst out. She glared at the calm Ling Mo through the crowd. She wanted to see how long Ling Mo could pretend. According to the original plan, the indecent video of Ling Mo being humiliated by the kidnappers the next morning would be widely circulated on the internet. At that time, even if Liang Feifans heart still had Ling Mo, he would never accept such a dirty woman. Su Yu, who was in Ling Yunlongs embrace, also glanced at Ling Mo from time to time. Until now, Su Yu still couldnt understand where Ling Mos confidence came from. Was it because she was too ignorant, or was it because she had a backup plan? If she said she was ignorant, it was still valid. After all, Ling Mo had wasted seven years in the countryside. Even if she was once famous in Beijing, the radiance around her had long been overshadowed by the rustic air around her. The most crucial point was that since she saw Ling Mo walk into the mens washroom with her own eyes, she would definitely be captured by the surveillance cameras outside the washroom. Thinking of this, Su Yu finally calmed down. She pretended to be calm and asked Ling Yunlong, who was staring at the computer screen, How is it? Is there Mo Mos figure in the video? Ling Yunlong shook his head and said in a deep voice, I can only see someones back, but from the way the person walks, he should be a man. The surveillance cameras did not capture her walking out of the washroom? Su Yu frowned and quickly pushed aside the media reporters who were crowding in front. She focused on the surveillance footage on the blue screen. Ling Mo, who was standing outside the crowd, looked at the stunned Su Yu and said indifferently, I told you, I really havent been to the mens washroom. If you dont believe me, you can go and check the surveillance cameras in the lounge. I was in the lounge the whole time. The receptionist explained apologetically, In order to protect the privacy of our guests, we dont have any security cameras installed in all the lounge rooms in the hotel. Im really sorry for the inconvenience. Is that so? The smile on Ling Mos lips deepened and she blinked innocently. I just came back from the countryside. I didnt know that there were no security cameras installed in the hotel lounge. Hearing her explanation, apart from Su Yu and Ling Tian, everyone in the audience believed Ling Mos story. The eyes of the reporters lit up, and they appeared to be very excited. Once this surveillance video was released, not only did it prove Ling Mos innocence, it also pointed the blame at the former Movie Queen Su Yu. As expected, Movie Queen Su Yu Mistreats Stepdaughter, The History of the Famous Movie Queen Su Yu As A Mistress, Su Yu Lies About Stepdaughter And Kidnappers Fooling Around and other headlines would be on all the major tabloid websites tomorrow. Su Yu did not expect that she would fall for Ling Mos trap again. At this moment, other than disbelief, there was more anger on her face. Ling Mos indifferent gaze paused on Su Yus face for a moment, and the corner of her lips curled up into a wanton smile. Aunty, why do you look so awful? Your aunty hasnt been feeling well these few days. Ling Yunlong glared at Ling Mo and turned around to support the pale Su Yu as they quickly walked out of Dihuang Hotel. Faced with the medias relentless pursuit, Su Yu did not give any other explanation. She only silently placed her delicate hand on her lower abdomen. She had maintained her figure very well. Even though she was over 40 years old, there was still not the slightest bit of fat on her waist and abdomen. However, the action of using one hand to cover her stomach had indeed caused more gossip. The sharp-eyed entertainment reporter had already captured the shot. They planned to use the headline At 40 Years Old, Former Movie Queen Got Pregnant To Solidify Her Position As The Matriarch Of A Wealthy Family to stir up more drama. Ling Mo saw Su Yus subtle action, but she did not disrupt her dangerous public relations tactic. Compared to defeating the enemy in one move, she was more inclined to play Su Yu, Ling Tian, and the others in her hands, making these people who had once trampled on her lose their reputation and everything they had. Second Miss, Miss Mo, its time to go back. The driver, Liu Zhong, jogged over and greeted Ling Mo and Ling Tian, who was leaning against Liang Feifan. Ling Mo nodded slightly and yawned lazily. Just as she was about to follow Liu Zhong to the expensive black business car parked at the entrance of the hotel, her slender wrist was pulled by Liang Feifan.. Chapter 11 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Mo raised his chin slightly and looked straight into Liang Feifans deep eyes. There was a hint of obvious mockery in her words, What, is the young master of the Liang family rekindling old feelings? Ling Tian saw Liang Feifan grab Ling Mos hand in front of everyone and was secretly alarmed. She held his arm and asked aggrievedly, Brother Feifan, didnt you say that you were going to give me a surprise at the birthday party? Xiao Tian, get in the car first. Liang Feifan frowned and only then did he remember that there was a proposal ring lying quietly in his trouser pocket. As early as a week ago, when he found out that Ling Mo had been brought back to the Ling residence, he had already made up his mind and was prepared to put the proposal ring on Ling Tians hand in front of her. The reason why he was in such a hurry to propose to Ling Tian was because he wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge on Ling Mo, who had tortured him to the point where he was left with nothing. Since Ling Mo was so despicable that she had miscarried three times for a wild man, he definitely wanted to give her a taste of being abandoned. However, to his surprise, not only did this cold and beautiful girl in front of him completely disregard him, when she looked into his eyes, there seemed to be a trace of disdain in her eyes. Liang Feifan had originally planned to use the dirtiest words to humiliate Ling Mo, but when the words were in his mouth, he suddenly did not know how to open his mouth. Ling Tian saw that his gaze had been fixed on Ling Mo, and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Brother Feifan, Im going to get in the car first. Okay. Liang Feifan replied indifferently, and his gloomy voice revealed his impatience at that moment. After Ling Tian got into the car unwillingly, Ling Mo couldnt be bothered to pretend that she detested Liang Feifan anymore. She glared at him coldly, Liang Feifan, spit it out. What kind of attitude is that? Liang Feifan was frustrated and felt even more uncomfortable. Ling Mo pulled back her hand that was red from his grip and asked coldly, Dont you understand human language? Liang Feifans straight eyebrows knitted together subconsciously, and a hint of doubt suddenly appeared on his face. The current Ling Mo was very different from the soft and kind-hearted Ling Mo from seven years ago. It made him feel an unprecedented sense of unfamiliarity. Ling Mo looked at Liang Feifan, who remained silent. She wanted to shrug his hands away and leave, but in order to find out where Liang Feifans hatred for her originated from, she patiently repeated it again: If I tell you to speak, spit it out. Dont waste my time. You should understand that, right? What have you been through all these years? Why have you become so vulgar and despicable? Liang Feifans words were filled with pain and hatred. Ling Mo caught the flash of pity in his eyes and suddenly laughed out loud. Liang Feifan, put away your hypocrisy. If you really cared about me, why would you ignore me for seven years? Whats the point of digging up old scores? She seemed to have touched on Liang Feifans sore spot, and he became more and more irritable. In the next moment, he pushed Ling Mo to the outer wall of the hotel and impatiently stuffed the diamond ring in his trouser pocket into her hand. Keep the diamond ring. Consider it half a year of allowance. As soon as he finished speaking, he bent down impatiently, wanting to kiss her delicate red lips that were constantly teasing him. Shouldnt this ring be placed on Ling Tians hand? Liang Feifan, your greed is really disgusting. Ling Mo looked coldly at the handsome face in front of her that was magnified. Suddenly, she raised her hand and gave him a tight slap. The slap caused his legs to stagger and he knelt beside her feet in a daze. Liang Feifan did not expect Ling Mo to be so unappreciative. He angrily shouted at her, B * cth, you slept with a strange man in the countryside. Why are you pretending to be noble in front of me? Shouldnt you be glad that I didnt abandon you because of your dirty body? You think youre so great. Ling Mo crossed her arms and looked at Liang Feifan, who was like an angry lion with blue veins bulging on his neck, calmly. She pretended to ask casually, Did Ling Tian tell you what I did in the countryside? Liang Feifan wiped away the blood on the corner of his mouth that had been slapped by her. He asked her indignantly, Dont tell me that in your heart, Im not as good as the man you met in the countryside? Ling Mo looked at him up and down with a mocking gaze. Then, she nodded slightly. Indeed, youre not as good as him. The man I met in the countryside was wild enough. He lived a good life and wasnt clingy. Im very satisfied. After saying that, she threw the diamond ring in her hand beside his feet and entered the black business car without looking back. Ling Mo, just you wait. Liang Feifan stomped on the sparkling diamond ring on the ground and punched the outer wall of the hotel in anger. One day, he would let Ling Mo know how bad the consequences of betraying him were. On the top floor of Dihuang Hotel, Qin Beiming stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his eagle-like sharp eyes following Ling Mo. It was not until she got into the Ling familys business car that he reluctantly withdrew his gaze. Lu Jinjiu looked at the distracted Qin Beiming and suddenly came forward. He said mysteriously, Third brother, Ive already gathered all the information about Miss Ling from the past 17 years. Do you want to take a look? No need. Qin Beiming disdained prying into other peoples privacy. He was more inclined to spend more effort to understand the people or things that interested him, rather than using technical means to dig up the past of others. You really dont want to look? Lu Jinjiu sat down on the edge of the sofa and flipped through the photos of Ling Mo on his phone with great interest. He clicked his tongue and said, Miss Ling has been beautiful since she was a child. Her beauty without makeup can even surpass a celebritys. Shallow. Qin Beiming said that, but his body defiantly leaned toward Lu Jinjiu. Third brother, arent you not interested? Lu Jinjiu hid his phone behind his back. His eyes were shining and his face was full of ridicule. Say that again? Qin Beiming ignored the teasing tone in Lu Jinjius voice. He suddenly pressed his knees on the edge of the sofa and his chest was extremely close to Lu Jinjius slightly hunched body. Lu Jinjiu was dumbfounded. He stared uneasily at Qin Beiming, who seemed like he could pounce on him at any moment. His muscular body began to tremble slightly. He subconsciously leaned back and asked in a trembling voice, Third brother, have you been coveting me since a long time ago? Hand over the phone. Qin Beiming was speechless. He felt that Lu Jinjiu was delusional. Huh? Lu Jinjiu stared at Qin Beiming, who was like a ferocious beast a second ago, but was now standing elegantly in front of him. He felt as if he was utterly trashed by him. He felt so weak and helpless that he could only curl up on the soft sofa and hug himself tightly. Qin Beiming could not be bothered to explain. He bent over again and snatched the phone that Lu Jinjiu had kept in his hands. Ah! Third brother, dont! Im afraid of pain Lu Jinjiu had misunderstood. He used braced himself nervously, looking like a pitiful little girl who was unwilling to surrender to a bully.. Chapter 12 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Qin Beiming raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled at Lu Jinjiu. If youre afraid of pain, then behave yourself. If there was a next time, he wouldnt mind beating up Lu Jinjiu, who was always letting his imagination run wild. Once again, Lu Jinjiu misinterpreted the meaning behind Qin Beimings words. He shrunk his neck in fear and sank his large body into the soft leather sofa. Qin Beiming was in a much better mood after receiving the phone. He turned around and crossed his legs again. He sat beside Lu Jinjiu like a statue and quickly browsed through Ling Mos information. When she was born, her biological mother died from an amniotic fluid embolism. Seven years ago, she pushed her stepsister down the stairs, causing her stepmother to miscarry unexpectedly and was sent to the countryside. After that, her personality changed drastically. Fighting became a common occurrence, and she was expelled from many schools. She was even Qin Beimings eyes were deep as he stared at the blue ID photo on his phone screen. The young lady in the photo had a simple ponytail. Her eyes were clear and her smile was bright. There was a faint dimple on the right side of her face, making her look extremely pure and beautiful. Lu Jinjiu turned his head and glanced at the dejected Qin Beiming. He stuttered and asked, Third brother, what do you think of Miss Ling? Qin Beiming put Lu Jinjius phone into his trouser pocket. After a while, he answered softly, The dimple is quite charming. Ah? You really dont mind her past? I heard that shes very wild and has several exes. Lu Jinjiu instantly perked up. He had never expected that Qin Beiming, who had always kept to himself, would actually like her. Qin Beiming frowned and said in a low voice, Dont talk about her like that. Upon hearing what he said, Lu Jinjiu acted as if he had bumped into a ghost. He pounced forward and stretched out his hand to touch his forehead while mumbling, Third brother, are you possessed? Xiao Jiu, I dont know much about girls. Help me order a box of underwear suitable for girls and send it to her. At that moment, the shabby round-necked vest on Ling Mos body flashed across Qin Beimings mind. Although he could not see any embarrassment from her appearance, he somehow felt that the ragged shirt was an eyesore. In the black business car, Ling Mo, who was sitting in the front row, was playing a game with her head lowered. A message suddenly popped up on the screen, causing Ling Mo, who was slaughtering everyone in the game, to be distracted and accidentally lose half her health. She took a deep breath and resisted the urge to curse. She opened the message impatiently. [ Boss, the relevant information about Su Yu has been sent to your email. In addition, half an hour ago, I detected that someone was looking at your information, but I have yet to find out the background of the other party. ] [ After you find out who it is, remember to tell me immediately. ] After Ling Mo sent the message, she immediately turned on the do-not-disturb mode and entered the game once again. Ling Tian, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, glanced directly at Ling Mo. When she saw that she was only focused on playing the game, she became even more annoyed. After feeling awkward for a long time, she finally took the lead to break the strange silence, Sis, what did Brother Feifan say to you just now? Unexpectedly, Ling Mo suddenly threw her phone away in anger and cursed, F * ck, I kept dying! When she said this, Ling Yunlongs face, who was resting with his eyes closed, darkened even more. Even though Ling Mo was not to blame for what happened tonight, he was already used to blaming her for everything. When he saw that Ling Mo was so uncultured, he could not help but scold her sternly. What kind of foul language is that? If you dare to bully Xiao Tian again, you better go back to the countryside. Su Yu was caught in Ling Mos words twice, and she still had anger in her heart. At this moment, she wished that Ling Yunlong could show some courage and slap Ling Mo a few times. However, she still put in enough effort on the surface and grabbed Ling Yunlongs arm gently. Yunlong, forget it. How can we just forget it? Ling Yunlong pushed Su Yus hand away and sat up straight. He glared at Ling Mo, who didnt put him in her eyes at all. You! Apologize to Xiao Tian immediately. Ling Mo glanced at the GAME OVER words on the screen before coming back to her senses. She turned her head to look at Ling Yunlong, who was panting heavily. Is your asthma acting up? You Ling Yunlong was so angry that his face was ashen. He bared his teeth and said, Apologize to Xiao Tian. Apologize? Ling Mos expression suddenly turned cold. Her sharp eyes carried a hint of arrogance that was difficult to ignore. Just one glance was enough to make Ling Yunlongs skin go numb. Su Yu looked at the two of them who were at each others throats. After a while, she tried to smooth things over. Mo Mo is still young, so its understandable that shes not sensible. As an adult, we just need to discipline her more. Aunty, do you know what dad is angry about? Im sitting quietly in the front row playing games. Why did dad ask me to apologize to Xiao Tian? Could it be that when I was dozing off just now, I dreamt that I beat Xiao Tian Up? Ling Mos face was filled with slight mockery as her eyes swept across the faces of the three people in the back seat. Indeed, birds of a feather flock together. The three of them sat in a row, looking rather harmonious. Ling Yunlong, who was sitting in the middle, looked like a big pig head used for sacrifices. He was fat and greasy. Su Yu, who was next to him, looked like a naked chicken. As for Ling Tian, who was dressed in light green, she looked like a snake. Thinking of this, the smile on Ling Mos lips deepened, but she did not say anything. She only looked at the three people in front of her with a strange expression. Ling Yunlong looked at Ling Mo, who was still laughing, and almost spat out a mouthful of blood, If you dare to insult Xiao Tian again in the future, just wait and see! Also, stay away from Liang Feifan. If you mess up Xiao Tians good marriage, see how Ill deal with you. When have I ever insulted your precious thing? As for Liang Feifan, Im also very annoyed. He just grabbed me and refused to let me go, insisting that I take the diamond ring Before she could finish her sentence, Ling Tian could no longer suppress the anxiety in her heart. She asked repeatedly, Youre saying that brother Feifan gave you a diamond ring? Yes, but I rejected it. Ling Mo turned her head and couldnt be bothered to waste her breath on Ling Tian. Mo Mo, could it be that youve made a mistake? Feifans diamond ring should be a birthday present for Xiao Tian. Why would he give it to you for no reason? Su Yu said with a faint smile, although she was asking, her tone was very confident. Liang Feifan was born into an upper-class family and had been a well-known figure in the celebrity circle since he was young. A young master from an aristocratic family like him definitely had high standards. No matter what, he would never take a fancy to a girl from the countryside. Upon hearing Su Yus words, Ling Tian, whose face was filled with hatred, also became alert. Her eyes were fixated on Ling Mo as she asked urgently, Could it be that brother Feifan entrusted you to pass that diamond ring to me? Chapter 13 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Mo crossed her arms and leaned comfortably against the seat. Her eyes were slightly closed as she replied indifferently, Think whatever you want. As soon as she finished speaking, the car fell into a strange silence again. Ling Tian was so angry that tears kept falling. However, she was unwilling to lose face in front of Ling Mo. She only dared to bite her delicate lips and sob silently. Ling Yunlongs anger slightly diminished. To him, profit was the most important thing. Whether it was Ling Mo or Ling Tian, if anyone could take down Liang Feifan, this big financier, he would definitely make a profit. Su Yu did not say anything more. She stared out of the car window at the busy stree. Her face was filled with worry as she thought about how to deal with the public pressure. Tonight, in order to divert the medias attention, she deliberately created the illusion that she was pregnant. But in the end, she still could not control how the media would guide public opinion. After careful consideration, she finally opened Wechat to contact her former manager, Zhao Jingchun. [Brother Zhao, I have a small matter here. I hope you can lend a hand and help me. ] [ Tonights problem is not small. Many media outlets have contacted me. What they write depends on the money youre willing to spend on pr. ] [ How much do you need? ] [ It starts with the number one. ] [100,000? ] [ One million. ] Su Yu stared at the Wechat screen. After deliberating for a while, she replied with a Yes. She did not intend to ask Ling Yunlong for this amount of money. Although Ling Yunlong had never restricted her from using money, this did not mean that he could accept such high public relations fees. Those who had never been in the entertainment industry did not know how deep the waters in this industry were. The thought of having to pay for the aftermath made Su Yu feel even more upset. She stared coldly at Ling Mo from the front mirror, who was resting with her eyes closed and gnashed her teeth in hatred. Back then, it was precisely because of Shi Ying that Ling Yunlong would not even look at her. It was not easy for her to snatch the position of the Ling familys madam from Shi Ying, but because of that, she was also branded as a mistress. Now, the little fox that Shi Ying gave birth to had just returned from the countryside, and she could easily make her lose a million dollars. How could she not feel resentment? But even if so, she had no way to deal with her for the time being. The kidnappers had failed, and she still did not know if the police would find any clues. The only thing she could do was to give up and try her best to create a good image of a loving mother. She had to completely shut the media up first. After a long silence, Su Yu suddenly turned to Ling Yunlong and said, Tomorrow morning, Ill send Xiao Tian and Mo Mo to school. Mo Mos grades arent good, so we have to pay more attention to her. Otherwise, Im really afraid that shell be bullied in school. Alright. Ling Yunlong replied casually, his face still as cold and indifferent as before. Half an hour later, they had just returned to the Ling residence when Nanny Wu ran towards Ling Yunlong with a box in her hands. Master, take a look. What is it? Ling Yunlong changed into his slippers and glanced impatiently at the colorful womens underwear in the box. In his heart, he cursed Madam Wu for being more and more unreliable. She actually held a box of underwear for him to look at. He wasnt a pervert. Why was he looking at these things? Su Yu followed Ling Yunlongs line of sight and looked at it. Her expression changed slightly as she shouted at Madam Wu, How is this appropriate? Hurry up and throw this thing out. Mother Wu did not expect Su Yu to suddenly lose her temper. She panicked and shakily explained, This box of underwear was sent to Miss Mo. I didnt pay attention for a moment and thought that it was a cleaning appliance that had just been sent. Thats why I opened it. Hearing this, Su Yus interest was suddenly piqued. She took the opportunity to approach Nanny Wu. Take a look at the senders message. Its not written on it. Thats weird Su Yu picked out a piece of transparent lace underwear from the box, she called out to Ling Mo, who was about to go upstairs with a hint of disdain, Mo Mo, do you know who sent this to you, or did you buy it yourself? Ling Yunlong glanced coldly at the lace underwear in Su Yus hand, his face livid. He had heard about Ling Mos dirty deeds in the countryside. However, he had thought that Ling Mo would restrain herself after returning to the Ling residence. He did not expect her to be so shameless! Who sent it? Ling Yunlong glared at her and questioned her sternly. Hmm? Ling Mo looked at the lace underwear in Su Yus hand in confusion, and then calmly met Ling Yunlongs gaze. Didnt Nanny Wu say that there was no message from the sender on the mail? Since it wasnt written, how would I know? After saying that, she went upstairs without looking back. Ling Yunlong glared at Ling Mos slender back and cursed angrily, I worked so hard to raise her for seventeen years, and she actually became an ingrate! Sigh, Mo Mo is indeed a little too willful. Su Yu shook her head and pretended to be mentally and physically exhausted. Ling Mo couldnt be bothered to watch their antics and pretended not to hear their whispers. She was somewhat absent-minded as she wondered who would send her a box of underwear. Although this was just a trivial matter, it also made her realize that everything after her rebirth seemed to have deviated from the original trajectory of things. The anonymous delivery had never happened before her rebirth. From the looks of it, she still had to put in some effort to guard against all sorts of evil people. Annoying. Ling Mo threw off the slippers on her feet and took out an unknown laptop from her washed-out shoulder bag. She carefully browsed through the relevant information about Su Yu. It was the same as last time. There were a total of thirty slides of the powerpoint presentation, but there was not a single useful clue. Impossible. If she didnt have someone behind her back, how did she manage to hold on to the position as the madam of the Ling family? Ling Mo rested her chin on one hand and repeatedly browsed through Su Yus relevant information. Logically speaking, Ling Yunlong was so eager to have a son, but Su Yu was never pregnant. He should have had other thoughts long ago. But in reality, Su Yu had always had a lot of say in the Ling family, so she didnt suffer any losses. What exactly was the problem? Ling Mo threw her computer aside and then sent a Wechat message to the famous manager in the country, Ryan. [ Brother, Su Yu caused such a big commotion today, why hasnt she made it onto the hot searches yet? ] [ Her former manager, Zhao Jingchun, used a lot of connections. In addition, she spent a large sum of money on public relations fees. She has already settled the matter. ] [ She settled the matter with seven figures? Leak this news to her old nemesis, Bai Jie, and help her appear in the headlines again. ] [ Done, leave it to me. ] After receiving the reply, Ling Mo was satisfied. She opened the game on her phone and continued playing.. Chapter 14 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Miss Mo, Ive placed your package on the table. When the sharp-faced Nanny Wu pushed the door open and entered, Ling Mo was still immersed in the game. She didnt even lift her eyelids. She was determined to win tonights Champions League. In her previous life, when she was in the Super God Arena City, she had formed a deep friendship with Gu Tingbai and Qiao Feng because of this game. Now, there was still half a year before Super God Arena City opened up the 20th tournament to the public and recruited talents from all walks of life. She could use the game to get to know them half a year in advance. Half a year was enough to change a lot of things. It was enough to defy the heavens and change fate. It was enough to protect the people she wanted to protect. Nanny Wu stayed in Ling Mos room for a short while. Seeing that she was immersed in playing games, the disdain in her eyes could not even be hidden. She thought to herself, a wild girl from the countryside, even as the Ling familys eldest daughter, was still a pheasant that could not be shown in public. While Ling Tian was studying hard, Ling Mo was playing games. If this continued, the gap between the two of them would definitely grow bigger and bigger. She believed that after a few years, she, who had achieved nothing, would not even be worthy of carrying Ling Tians shoes. Madam Wu shook her head in disdain and rolled her eyes indecently. She wiped her hands on her apron, and in the blink of an eye, she went to deliver birds nest soup to Ling Tian After Ling Mo led her four teammates to successfully win the Champions League, Gu Tingbai, who was on the other end of the screen, jumped up from the sofa excitedly. He forcefully pulled Gu Nanfeng, who had just returned from a business trip, to show off, Brother, look! Ive won the championship. Gu Nanfeng glanced at him perfunctorily. He obviously didnt believe that Gu Tingbai had such skills. You cheated? With your skills, even top-tier players cant carry you. Who are you looking down on? Gu Tingbai tilted his nose and proudly extended his hand to Gu Nanfeng, Give me the car keys and admit your loss. You said yourself last time that if I could win the championship, you would lend me the newly acquired Phantom for a month. Take it. Gu Nanfeng casually took out a bunch of keys from his trouser pocket and threw them into his hands. After changing into casual clothes, he dragged him to the garage. I heard that third brother has taken a fancy to a girl. Come with me to Only. You bunch of old bachelors. You dont even go to bars to pick up girls. You only know how to play cards. Its boring. Not only that, in the end, Im the one who loses money every time. Im not going. Ive been drinking. Drive me. Gu Nanfeng confiscated his phone and dragged him into the car. Third brother Qin has been a bachelor for so many years. Are you sure theres really a girl who is worthy of his attention? Gu Tingbai muttered softly. If it were any other time, he would be happy to make this trip. The problem was that he had just added Ling Mos Wechat. Before he could say hello, Gu Nanfeng had confiscated his phone. His heart was really itchy. Brother, quickly return my phone to me. The god is still waiting for me to reply! Focus on driving. Ill reply on your behalf. Gu Nanfeng was somewhat interested in the god that Gu Tingbai mentioned. Gu Tingbai was obviously a five-time loser. He had once been reported by his teammates for being too weak and had his account blocked. He really couldnt imagine that there was someone in this world who could lead Gu Tingbai to the professional league. Coincidentally, just as he opened wechat, Ling Mo just happened to send him a message. [ Its been hard on you tonight. Shall we meet someday? ] [ Why not now. VIP room at Only on the second floor, waiting for you. ] [ I have a class tomorrow, I cant go. ] After replying on Wechat, Ling Mo put down her phone and started to study the box of colorful underwear on her desk. Gu Nanfeng received the reply and asked Gu Tingbai in puzzlement, This god you mentioned, is he still studying? Ive never asked about that. I only know that the god is ghetto. When he was playing the game, he kept swearing. The gods is so wild? Or is it because of you? When Gu Nanfeng thought of how Gu Tingbai, this pig, was scolded by his teammates, he deviated from his usual elegant and proud manner and laughed loudly. Bullsh*t! Its not because of me. The god only scolded me because she was in a bad mood. As a girl, there are always a few days every month when she gets a little emotional. How can I take it personally? A girl? Gu Nanfeng did not expect that the almighty who could elevate his pig teammate was actually a girl. Out of curiosity, he opened Ling Mos Wechat profile picture again. He opened his eyes wide and looked at it carefully for a full minute. Only then did he realized that it was just a black screen. This profile picture is quite unique. It matches third brothers profile picture very well. Gu Nanfeng suddenly realized that not only did their profile pictures match well, the photos were so dark that he could not even see the face with a magnifying glass. Even their Wechat nicknames matched well. Qin Beimings Wechat name was Random, while Ling Mos Wechat name happened to be Its Random. Was it fate, or was it just a coincidence? Or was someone planning to use this opportunity to get close to Qin Bg? Thinking of this, Gu Nanfengs expression instantly turned cold. One day, he would definitely invite her to meet him. If this girl had the intention to plot against his brother, he would definitely not let her off even if she was as beautiful as a flower. On the other side, after Ling Mos investigations were fruitless, she video called her best friend Song Xingwan. Xingwan, did you send this box of underwear? How is that possible? Why would I send you underwear for no reason? You dont even have a boyfriend, who are you going to show it to? On the other side of the video, Song Xingwan crossed her legs and laid on the sofa leisurely, chatting with Ling Mo. Speaking of which, they had known each other for 13 years. They werent biological sisters, but they were even closer than biological sisters. If its not you, who else could it be? Ling Mo threw the box in the corner gloomily and lay back down on the bed. There must be something wrong with the senders taste. How could they gift a lace bra like this to a young and beautiful girl? Not only does it look old, its also rustic. In my opinion, the sender is most likely a bald, sleazy, and big-bellied middle-aged man. Song Xingwan chewed on the apple in her hand, she analyzed it as if it was a matter of fact. Sleazy uncle? Ling Mo automatically thought of the sleazy face of Director Li of Guanghua Industries at the banquet. Her impression of the sender became a little worse. Want to see her wearing transparent lace underwear? Maybe in the next life. Mo, how many days do you plan to stay with the Ling family this time? A hint of worry appeared on Song Xingwans bright and beautiful face, Youre good at everything, but youre too soft-hearted. The acting skills of the best actress Su have long been perfected. Im always afraid that youll be wronged in the Ling family. Not this time. Ling Mo mumbled. Once again, the scene of her miserable death after being splashed with acid flashed past her eyes. Compared to resentment, it was more the chill of being betrayed by the people around her. After turning off the video call, she closed her eyes tightly. A deep and magnetic male voice suddenly sounded in her ears, This girls clothes are unbuttoned. Let me put them on. She kept feeling that this voice sounded familiar, but when she thought about it carefully, her mind went blank again. Who that person was was actually not important. However, if she was fated to meet him, she still wanted to properly thank that stranger whom she had never met before for taking care of her last bit of dignity before she died. Chapter 15 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation The next morning, before dawn, Ling Mo was already jogging along the riverside, which was only a few hundred meters away from the Ling residence. After duelling with Qin Beiming last night, she felt a little uncomfortable. In the past, she was the only one who hit others. If others were to find out that she was so weak now that she couldnt even defeat a man with a perky butt, how embarrassing would that be? In order to avoid getting into the same predicament as last night, she had to spend more time training her physical strength. Outside the green area, a limited-edition Phantom was speeding past in the cool breeze. In the car, other than Qin Beiming, who was in the drivers seat, and Huo Yunting, who was sleeping with his eyes closed in the passenger seat, the three people in the backseat were huddled together, with their hands and legs intertwined. It was not a brotherly relationship, but a gay one at most. Brother, look! Theres a slender-legged red-crowned crane flying by the river. Gu Tingbai could not hold his liquor. Everything he looked at was blurry, and he thought the girl he saw was a red-crowned crane. Gu Nanfeng, who was also hungover, shook his head and put on the same shocked face as Gu Tingbai. The red-crowned cranes legs are so fair. Lu Jinjiu, who was lying on Gu Nanfengs chest, also stretched his neck and waved at Ling Mo with great interest. His clear voice turned into a deep, smoky voice due to the alcohol, Hey! That crane, youre going too fast! Qin Beiming: He really could not understand what was going on with this group of crazy people. He was just a little curious about that rebellious young lady from the Ling family. Why were the three people in the backseat so excited? Drinking wine like water? Did they really think that they wouldnt get drunk after drinking a thousand cups? Ling Mo stopped in her tracks and turned her head to look at the car full of drunkards outside the area. They were a little far away, so she didnt get a clear look at the people in the car. All she could hear was the mad chatter of the drunkard. Qin Beiming, on the other hand, recognized Ling Mo with just a casual glance. Yunting, I have something urgent to attend to. Send them back. He braked immediately and took off his suit which reeked of alcohol and tobacco. Qin Beiming leaped across the greenery and ran in Ling Mos direction. Ling Mo rubbed her eyes. It took her a few seconds to see who was running towards her. She subconsciously wanted to turn around and run. After all, she was not his opponent yet. However, before she could turn around, Qin Beiming had already blocked her way. What a coincidence! What do you want? Ling Mos voice was filled with wariness. There was a hint of sharpness hidden in her beautiful peach blossom eyes, which made people feel tingly. Qin Beiming pondered for a moment and suddenly did not know how to answer. Before this, he had never taken the initiative to talk to any woman other than his mother. Therefore, even though he still looked arrogant and noble on the surface, he was already panicking in his heart. Ling Mo saw that his hands were in his pockets and he definitely did not look like he wanted to fight her. Only then did she let out a long sigh of relief. If theres nothing else, Ill be leaving. Okay. Qin Beimings sexy thin lips pursed into a line as he watched with a cold expression at Ling Mos back as she ran back. This girl, why was she running so fast? Could it be that shes shy Thinking of this, Qin Beimings heart swayed along with Ling Mos slender waist. He was inexplicably excited and happy! Tsk, he didnt know where to place his emotions! After Ling Mo ran far away, Qin Beiming completely gave up on managing his expression. He smiled with a flirtatious look on his face. In the back seat of the car, three pairs of intoxicated eyes simultaneously looked at the smug Qin Beiming. The three of them, who had only been quiet for a short while, began to chatter again. Third brother is smiling! It seems that he is not constipated today! Say, did third brother go missing just now? He obviously went to pick up a crane. I dont know if he likes a male crane or a female crane. Huo Yunting shook his head helplessly and said lightly, Third brother is just beginning to fall in love. He is thin-skinned. Dont scare him. Qin Beiming noticed the four gossipy faces and his lips returned to normal in an instant. He opened the car door elegantly and did not mention anything about what had just happened. Ling Mo ran into the Ling residence, panting. Before she could catch her breath, Ling Yunlong, who was sitting at the dining table, threw the newspaper in his hand onto the ground. Nanny Tian, who was standing beside him, quickly squatted down to pick up the crumpled newspaper on the ground. She was so scared that she did not even dare to breathe. Ling Tian, who was sitting opposite Ling Yunlong, was drinking the milk in her glass seriously. She was extremely silent. When Ling Mo saw this, she subconsciously took out her phone from her pocket and opened Weibo. As expected, Su Yu successfully made the top trending news on Weibo. Not only that, she even managed to monopolize three trending topics. She could be said to be at the peak of her popularity. [ Explosive News! Su Yu Is Suspected Of Abusing Her Stepdaughter ] [ Movie Queen Su Yus History As A Mistress Has Been Exposed! ] [ Soul-stirring Night At Dihuang Hotel! Best Actress Su Yu Is Spreading Rumors That Her Stepdaughter Is Having An Affair With The Kidnappers! ] Ling Mo glanced at the comments on the trending topics and realized that the manager that Su Yu hired was also criticized by the majority of the netizens because of his negative image. Only then did she slowly put her phone back into her pocket and sat down next to Ling Tian with a calm expression. When Nanny Tian saw this, she quickly brought Ling Mo breakfast that had been kept warm. Thank you. Ling Mo thanked her gently and turned around to ask Ling Yunlong with a puzzled expression, Dad, is aunty still not up? Didnt she say that she would personally send me and Xiao Tian to school last night? Your aunty isnt feeling well. Lets do it another day. Ling Yunlongs expression was unfriendly and his voice was filled with anger. From his point of view, the reason why Su Yu was in the eye of the storm was purely due to Ling Mo, this jinx. Aunty hasnt eaten breakfast yet, right? Ill send it over to her. Ling Mo smiled faintly and in the blink of an eye, she carried the leftover breakfast she had eaten, wearing the disposable slippers that didnt fit her and went upstairs. She wanted to see if Su Yu could still smile at this moment. She had spent a million dollars on public relations, but nothing had been resolved. Anyone would be furious. Just the thought of Su Yus disheveled appearance made the smile on Ling Mos lips deepen. She pushed open the door to the master bedroom and quickly walked to Su Yus bedside. She asked with concern, Aunty, are you alright? What are you doing here? Get out. Su Yu raised her eyes and glared at Ling Mo, who was smiling like a flower. She could not help but feel angry. Despite her superb acting skills, she finally tore off her hypocritical mask under extreme anger and shouted at Ling Mo. Ling Mo placed the breakfast on the bedside table steadily and met Su Yus ruthless gaze without fear. Remember to eat breakfast. The body is the capital of the revolution. Were you the one who instigated the storm of public opinion on the Internet? Su Yus eyes were bloodshot. The moment she thought about how her taboo history was once again exposed, the hatred in her heart grew. Ling Mo did not reply. She only whispered into her ear, I heard that aunty spent a million in fees for public relations.. Does dad know about this? Chapter 16 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Su Yu stared blankly at Ling Mo, who had suddenly moved closer to her. Her pupils trembled slightly, and a trace of fear appeared in her heart for no reason. Logically speaking, other than Zhao Jingchun and the few mainstream media outlets that had received hush money, no one else should know about this matter. Ling Mo was just a wild girl from the countryside. It was obviously impossible for her to have any interaction with people in the circle. Since that was the case, how did she find out about this news? Su Yu was flustered, but she could only pretend to be calm and ask in a low voice, Who told you about this? When Nanny Wu and Nanny Zhang were chatting, she mentioned it. I thought she was just simply saying it, but I didnt expect it to be true. Impossible. Su Yu shook her head, not believing what Ling Mo said. Ling Mo shrugged and asked with a smile, Then, where do you think I found out about this matter? Su Yu looked at Ling Mos dark eyes and her eyelids twitched. She suddenly realized that she had almost fallen for this little foxs words again. What nonsense are you talking about in broad daylight? She temporarily put aside the doubts in her heart and tried her best to deny that shed paid a large sum of hush money. What do you mean by public relations fees? If I really spent this money, there wouldnt be negative headlines, would there? Ling Mo was noncommittal. A faint smile hung on her face the entire time. However, that smile did not reach her eyes at all. Su Yu, who was already feeling a little guilty, felt a chill down her spine when she saw Ling Mos strange expression for the first time. What are you laughing at? Su Yus voice was slightly trembling because of her overly tense nerves. Im laughing at auntys small guts. What are you afraid of? This is a society ruled by law. Do you think I will eat you alive? Ling Mo strolled to the bedside table and looked at the pale Su Yu as if she was superior. She enunciated each word clearly, I heard that experienced actors could suppress other actors with their strong aura, causing them to make mistakes frequently. I originally thought that you aunty, who is a movie queen, should have a strong aura. I didnt expect you to be suppressed so easily by me. Su Yu was slow to realize. When she realized that she had been suppressed by a little girl, she was so angry that she picked up the pillow behind her and threw it in the direction of the bedroom door. Ling Mo pretended not to see. She straightened her back and walked out of the master bedroom calmly. Before she left, she did not say mockingly, The so-called movie queen is just so-so. B * stard daughter of a b * tch, watch how I deal with you! Su Yu did not expect Ling Mo to be so bold. She had only returned to the Ling residence for a week, and she dared to openly declare war on her, the madam of the Ling family, who held real power in her hands. If this continued, wouldnt she be rebelling against the heavens? In order to show her power to Ling Mo, Su Yu no longer cared about the rumors on Weibo. She turned around and changed into a rose-red suit. With a deep hatred in her heart, she rushed downstairs. At the foot of the staircase, Ling Mo, who had just changed into her school uniform, broke out of her usual indifference. She smiled and stuffed a red packet into Nanny Wus hands. Nanny Wu, happy birthday. How did Miss Mo know my birthday? Nanny Wu weighed the red packet in her hand and roughly estimated that there should be two thousand in it. She instantly beamed with joy. Su Yu saw her trusted aide being coaxed so easily by Ling Mo. She was burning with anger and yelled at Nanny Wu, Nanny Wu! What have you been doing for half a day? I havent seen you at all! Madam, I was cleaning up with Nanny Zhang and the others just now. Nanny Wus expression was solemn as she hurriedly put the red packet into her trouser pocket. In the blink of an eye, she pointed at Nanny Zhang, who was mopping the floor, to prove that she was not slacking off. Ungrateful wretch. Su Yu snorted coldly and her trust in Nanny Wu was reduced by more than half in an instant. Ling Mo indifferently glanced at Su Yu, whose expression was getting uglier and uglier, and the corners of her lips curled into a strange arc. She knew clearly in her heart that since Su Yu was able to turn a bad hand into a winning one. Her strength was definitely not to be underestimated. Since even the top-tier intelligence system was unable to find any evidence against Su Yu, she could only settle for the second best option and started investigating the people around Su Yu. Although Su Yu had always trusted Nanny Wu, this did not mean that their relationship was as strong as it appeared. If she wanted to break the trust between them, she had to choose the method that was equivalent to slowly boiling a frog in warm water. She had to be subtle with her words and erode their psychological defenses bit by bit. Ling Yunlong was just about to leave when he saw that Su Yu was still unhappy. He coaxed her gently, Yuer, are you still angry? You dont have to care about the rumors on the internet. Ill find someone to negotiate with in a while. Why should I care? I know Im innocent. Im just afraid that someone will not let go of such a small matter in our family and affect the companys reputation. Su Yu sighed faintly and muttered softly, The things that have gone wrong in the past two days have happened all at once. Why dont I ask my cousin to tell our fortune soon? Ling Mo raised her brows slightly and only then did she remember that Su Yu had a cousin who was a scammer. Seven years ago, Su Yus scammer cousin had firmly asserted that she was cursed by fate. If she was raised at home for a long period of time, not only would it affect their luck, it would also affect their descendants. Ling Yunlong, who was eager to have a child, firmly believed in this nonsense. He forcefully blamed the miscarriage of Su Yu, Ling Tian falling down the stairs, and other disasters on Ling Mo. Without hesitating, he sent her to the countryside. At that time, he said that he was sending her to the countryside for foster care, but in reality, he was abandoning her. In the past seven years, he had not paid a single cent for her foster care. As he recalled the past, Ling Mos gaze turned colder. Your cousin has been training in Mount Han for the past few years? Ling Yunlong was thinking of letting Su Yus cousin tell his career fortune, but just as he was about to open his mouth to speak, his thoughts were interrupted by a call from the police. After he pressed the answer button, he habitually turned on the speakerphone. Then, a clear voice came from the other end of the phone, Mr. Ling, the kidnappers who caused a ruckus at your daughters birthday party yesterday have been captured and brought to justice. According to the leader of the kidnappers, they were only paid to do their job. As for who the main culprit is, they are not very clear. Ling Mo observed Su Yus expression. Seeing that her expression changed, she was even more certain of her guess. Based on the current situation, Su Yu was most likely the employer behind the group of armed kidnappers. Even if she did not personally handle this matter, she definitely could not escape responsibility. Thinking of this, Ling Mo suddenly leaned towards Ling Yunlongs phone that was pressed to his ear and asked softly, Can you check their bank accounts? Since they were paid to do things, the person behind them has most likely already transferred part of the remuneration to their accounts. Perhaps, if we start from the bank accounts, we could find information about the person behind them. Hearing Ling Mos words, Su Yus heart thumped and a trace of panic flashed across her eyes. Although this matter was not personally handled by her, if they continued investigating, it would definitely implicate her.. Chapter 17 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Mo glanced at Su Yu, whose face was overly tense, and her smile became even more prominent. She said in a clear voice, Officer, is my suggestion feasible? Its difficult. These kidnappers are all from Country Z, and they have never opened bank accounts in our country. As for the information of overseas bank accounts, under normal circumstances, it is impossible to find out. Hearing the polices explanation, Ling Yunlong quickly covered the earpiece and scolded Ling Mo coldly, If you dont understand, dont interrupt. In his opinion, Ling Mo was purely acting out, always wanting to show off in front of others. If she really had some ability, then so be it. The problem was that Ling Mo was a useless good-for-nothing. If she were to continue speaking, it would inevitably expose her intelligence and make a fool of herself. What did you say? Ling Mos eyes were filled with an unfathomable fierceness. Ling Yunlong felt a gust of wind at the back of his neck when she glanced at him. The blood in his body seemed to have frozen in an instant as he was in a daze. How could Ling Mos aura be so similar to that persons?! Su Yu saw that Ling Yunlongs expression was not quite right and asked with concern, Yunlong, are you feeling unwell? Im fine. Ling Yunlong shook his head, turned off the speakerphone, and chatted with the police for a while. Ling Mo noticed the fear that flashed past Ling Yunlongs eyes, and she felt even more confused. She only glared at him and didnt do anything out of the ordinary. Why was he so nervous? Could it be that he accidentally saw wrongly and mistook her for her mother? No, that didnt make sense either. She and her mothers looks were not similar at all. Ling Yunlong was neither short-sighted nor far-sighted, so how could he have mistaken her for her mother? Just as she was racking her brains, Ling Yunlong had already hung up the phone and rushed to the press conference that was scheduled at 9 am this morning with the senior affairs secretary of Shi Jian Group. Although the riot at Ling Tians birthday party did not cause any casualties, as the organizer of the party, Ling Yunlong had to stand up at the first opportunity to clarify the truth of the matter. Only by clarifying the relationship between Shi Jian Group and the armed kidnappers could the losses of the group be minimized. The moment Ling Yunlong left, Su Yus expression instantly turned cold. She looked at Ling Mos bare face with a faint smile. Other than disgust, there was also a hint of pride. The police had already made it clear that for the time being, they would not be able to find any information about the overseas bank accounts of the kidnappers. Therefore, even if Ling Mo wanted to investigate, she would definitely not be able to discover anything. After calming down her nerves, Su Yu was like a proud peacock as she arrogantly took the new Ella handbag from the summer collection that Nanny Wu handed to her and swayed gracefully in front of Ling Mo. She walked towards the black business car that was already parked in the front yard. Liu Zhong, drive. Yes, Madam. Liu Zhong, who was waiting at the side, smiled shyly and quickly walked forward to open the car door for Su Yu. Ling Tian followed closely behind Su Yu. She had planned to sit next to her, but was pushed out of the backseat by Su Yu. Xiao Tian, you sit in the passenger seat. Okay. Ling Tian immediately understood. She glanced at the indifferent Ling Mo from the corner of her eye and curled the corners of her lips, smiling meaningfully. Ling Mo did not care about these small details at all. With light in her eyes, she bent her long legs and lazily sat next to Su Yu in the backseat. Su Yu did not say anything. As she touched up her makeup in front of the palm-sized vanity mirror, she would occasionally glance at Ling Mo, who was sitting beside her with her legs crossed. As expected, those from the countryside had no manners. They did not have a proper sitting posture and were vulgar and shabby. It was embarrassing! On the other hand, looking at Ling Tian, who was sitting on the passenger seat obediently like a pure virgin, Su Yu was secretly pleased. Back then, she was always overshadowed by Shi Ying. Now, her precious daughter was showing off her potential. She had already completely outclassed those cheap bastards who had always been lingering around her. Noticing Su Yus gaze from time to time, Ling Mo frowned impatiently and sent a Wechat message to Seductive Fox. [ Help me check the overseas bank account information of the group of kidnappers who messed up Ling Tians birthday party. ] [ Boss, did the Ling Family offend you? Do you want to use your connections to wipe them out? ] [ Wheres the satisfaction in that? Besides, I dont just want to destroy them. ] Ling Mo put away her phone, and a wicked smile appeared on her lips. She was not prepared to let go of anyone who had humiliated her. Not only that, she wanted to use the most outrageous method to completely destroy their desire to live. Mo Mo, when you see your class teacher later, you cant mess around anymore. Su Yu glanced at Ling Mo with a cold gaze, her words were filled with disgust, If theres a mock exam again, even if you dont know how to answer a single question, you should at least guess. If theres another zero in all subjects, you can scram back to the countryside. The Ling family cant afford to lose face like this. Ling Mo revealed a mocking expression and asked in return, How many points does aunty want me to get? Naturally, the higher the better. Su Yu was even more baffled by her question. Everyone knew that Ling Mo was not born to study, but her tone was always so arrogant. What did she mean by how many marks did she want her to get? She said it as if she could control her marks. How ridiculous! Since thats the case, I will do my best to fulfill auntys wish. After Ling Mo said that, she looked at Ling Tian who was reading an English textbook. How many marks did you get in the mock exam last time? Ling Tian raised her eyebrows and felt a little disdainful. How could someone like Ling Mo, who was a terrible student, compete with her? 677 points. After a moment of silence, Ling Tian proudly reported her score in the mock exam. As soon as she finished her sentence, she didnt forget to turn her head and give an encouraging smile to Ling Mo who was sitting in the back seat. Sister is talented and intelligent. As long as you are willing to learn, you will definitely improve by leaps and bounds. You actually lost 73 points? Ling Mo crossed her arms and looked provocatively at the proud and complacent Ling Tian. Ling Tian sneered and replied arrogantly, Could it be that you can get a score higher than 677 points? It depends on my mood. Ling Mo replied casually and took the lead to open the car door. Just as she was about to get out of the car, she coincidentally bumped into Liang Feifan. Their eyes met, and the atmosphere instantly became tense. Liang Feifan lowered his gaze and stared at the cold and elegant girl who had fallen into his chest. His deep voice was tinged with a hint of playfulness. Are you that thirsty? Ling Mo: She looked up at the sky speechlessly and avoided Liang Feifan, who was standing motionlessly in front of her like a statue. Stop. Liang Feifan saw disgust and impatience in her eyes, and he felt even more upset. He turned around quickly and grabbed Ling Mos slender wrist. Youre playing hard to get.. How long do you want to keep this up? Chapter 18 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Mo: ? ? ? Since when did she play hard to get? Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that she really hated him. Ling Mo, Im asking you a question. Liang Feifan tugged at his tie, his thin lips tightly pursed into a line. Ling Mo dug her ears and said with a faint smile, Liang Feifan, why are you jumping around in front of me instead of burying yourself in The Classic of Mountains and Seas? What do you mean? Liang Feifan was confused. Why was she talking about The Classic of Mountains and Seas all of a sudden? Ling Mo shrugged away his hand and threw a cold glance at Su Yu, who was sitting in the backseat of the car with a livid face. A bright smile instantly spread across her face. I mean it literally. Liang Feifans expression turned even uglier as he continued to ask, Whats the literal meaning? Not far away, Xiong Chumo, who was yawning, unexpectedly caught a glimpse of the handsome and extraordinary Liang Feifan. She instantly perked up and rushed over. When she saw that Liang Feifans gaze was following Ling Mos retreating figure, she repeatedly interrupted his thoughts. Brother Feifan, The Classic of Mountains and Sea is filled with strange beasts. Ling Mo is taking a roundabout route to mock you. How can sister be like this! Ling Tians brows were tightly knitted together. Her voice was gentle, and her slender body was soft and delicate. It made ones heart tingle. Liang Feifan was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He couldnt even breathe. If Ling Tian wasnt present, he might have rushed forward and taught Ling Mo a lesson. Brother Feifan, youre not angry with sister, right? Ling Tian raised her bright eyes and looked at Liang Feifan. No. Liang Feifan suppressed the anger in his heart and handed the jewelry box in his trouser pocket to Ling Tian. Here, its your birthday present. Something happened yesterday and I forgot to give it to you. Thank you. Ling Tian opened the jewelry box that Liang Feifan handed to her with joy. However, when she realized that there was a diamond ring in the jewelry box, the smile on her face disappeared in an instant. As expected, this should be the diamond ring that Liang Feifan used to please Ling Mo last night. Ling Tian never expected that Liang Feifan would actually give her a second-hand diamond ring. What made her even more disgusted was that Ling Mo didnt want this diamond ring! Liang Feifan noticed that Ling Tians mood was a little off. He asked in a deep voice, Why? Dont you like it? No, I like it very much. Ling Tian lowered her bloodshot eyes that were filled with jealousy and replied softly. Liang Feifan seemed a little absent-minded and forced a smile. Its good that you like it. I still have something to do, so Ill be leaving first. Su Yu, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, had originally planned to stage a family drama at the school gate. She didnt expect Liang Feifan to appear halfway through, so she could only give up. For the time being, she suppressed her superb acting skills as a movie queen and got off the car resentfully. As soon as she stepped into the school gate, Ling Mo attracted a lot of attention because of her incredible curves and the eye-catching fair skin. Who is this girl? Her skin is so fair, she looks like a big star. I think her name is Ling Mo. She just transferred to Grade 12 Class F less than a week ago. She does look good, but her results are too bad. It is said that she got zero in all subjects in the mock exam, which almost made the class teacher have a stroke. Shes really something! She dares to get a zero, shes definitely a badass. Oh my God, why do I feel like this girl is even prettier than the school belle of Class A, Ling Tian? Right? Beside her Ling Tian does not look like a goddess anymore. Everyones gaze seemed to be on Ling Mo, and they couldnt take their eyes off her for a long time. Not only that, someone even secretly took out his phone and sent Ling Mos photo to the school forum of First High School. Xiong Chumo heard everyones discussion and rolled her eyes. She complained to Ling Tian, Are they blind? Ling Mo is just a little gangster from the countryside. How can she be compared to you, the real princess of the Ling Family? She has always had some tricks up her sleeve. I heard her cousin say that when she was in the countryside, there were often boys fighting over her. Ling Tians tone was rather sour, but there was still a decent smile on her face. How old is she, and shes already so flirtatious? Xiong Chumo scoffed. From the bottom of her heart, she looked down on a someone like Ling Mo who looked cold and aloof, but in reality, she was even more shameless than a vixen. Dont bother about her. This Friday is the monthly exam. Lets prepare for the exam first. Ling Tian clenched the jewelry box that still had the residual warmth of Liang Feifan. She gathered her thoughts and quickly walked into the classroom. On the other side, Ling Mo and Su Yu entered the principals office. The moment they entered, a dazzling light reflected off the door handle, causing Ling Mo to squint her eyes. So it turned out that Su Yu already had something planned. Ling Mo shook her head and smiled helplessly. She lazily leaned against the sofa by the door without saying a word. Principal Zhu Siliang saw Su Yu and quickly got up to pour her a glass of water. Madam Ling, please take a seat. Su Yu nodded slightly and gently tucked her skirt as she sat elegantly across Zhu Siliang. She took the paper cup from Zhu Siliang with one hand and took a small sip. She said unhurriedly, Principal Zhu, I believe you know why Im here, right? Madam Ling, according to the rules, our school cannot accept students who are below the passing mark, Zhu Siliang said awkwardly. Principal Zhu, could you be more flexible? Mo Mo lacked a bit of foundation, and we didnt expect her to enter Class A. Just arrange for her to study in Class F for half a semester. If its really difficult, she can also be held back. Zhu Siliangs brows were tightly furrowed. He didnt want to offend the wealthy Ling family, and he also didnt want to drag down the university enrolment rate from First High School because of Ling Mo. After thinking for a long while, he slowly opened his mouth, If Student Ling could get 30-40 marks, it would be fine. The problem is that she didnt even get a single question right. Why dont you let Student Ling enrol in a vocational school? Since she doesnt have the talent to study, its better to learn other skills than to get a zero in all subjects. Hearing this, Su Yu felt even more delighted. She had already said that Ling Mo was a pile of dirt that couldnt be helped. It was hard for her to achieve anything. If Ling Yunlong were to find out that the principal of First High School refused to accept Ling Mo no matter what, he would definitely feel humiliated. He might even become angry out of humiliation and blame everything on Ling Mo. At that time, once the reputation crisis of Shi Jian Group was resolved, Ling Yunlong would definitely kick Ling Mo, this useless burden, out. With that thought, the gloominess on Su Yus face disappeared, and her happiness could not be concealed. Ling Mo, who was leaning on the sofa and dozing off, had already seen through Su Yus thoughts. After yawning lazily, she finally stood up and walked to the principals desk. Pa! The crisp sound of someone slapping the table suddenly rang out. Zhu Siliang and Su Yu looked at each other and looked at her in confusion. They saw that she had both her hands on the table. As if she had put in a lot of effort to speak, she asked in a low voice, Principal, do you mean that if I could get 40 marks, I could stay? You could say that, yes. Zhu Siliang pushed up his glasses, thinking that Ling Mo probably wanted to try her luck and take the exam again. Without saying anything else, he handed the mock exam paper on the table to her.. Chapter 19 Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Su Yus eyes were slanted, and her two curved eyebrows subconsciously raised up, looking at Ling Mo with a hint of contempt in her eyes. In this day and age, even a gray sparrow wanted to lay eggs like a goose. She really overestimated her own abilities. Ling Mo, this trash who scored zero in all subjects, actually had the courage to challenge the mock exam that had a difficulty score of 0.45?! Generally speaking, the difficulty score of the university entrance exam was between 0.6 and 0.7. The average score of most students in each subject was just slightly above the passing mark. A difficulty score of 0.45 had lowered the average score by at least two grades. This was already considered a higher-than-average difficulty level for most students, let alone Ling Mo, who couldnt even read. Ling Mo ignored Su Yus disdainful gaze and glanced indifferently at the sample answer sheet on the left of Zhu Siliang. With just a glance, she recognized Ling Tians handwriting. Zhu Siliang mistakenly thought that Ling Mo wanted to peek at the answer sheet and silently stacked the other documents on top of Ling Tians answer sheet. But to his surprise, Ling Mo didnt have any intention of retracting her gaze. Instead, in front of him, she openly pulled out Ling Tians answer sheet and browsed through it. Student Ling, what are you doing? You cant answer it, so you are going to copy the sample answer of this mock exam? Zhu Siliang had never seen such a thick-skinned student. There was a hint of suppressed anger in his voice. Su Yu, who had her arms crossed, also did not expect Ling Mo to be so shameless. However, when she saw the name Ling Tian written on the sample answer sheet, the smug look on her face could not even be concealed. Mo Mo, in terms of learning, you should indeed learn more from Xiao Tian. But learning from her does not mean that you should copy her answer sheet. Put down Xiao Tians answer sheet first and make a fool of yourself in front of the principal. Who said I want to copy? Ling Mo asked coldly in return. She casually picked up a pen from the pen holder and started writing on Ling Tians answer sheet. Zhu Siliang only felt a buzzing pain in his head, and his voice and expression were stern, Student Ling, what are you doing? How can you scribble on a sample answer sheet? Give me five minutes. Ling Mo replied without hesitation. Perhaps it was because the tone of her voice was strong, Zhu Siliang swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Instead, his gaze fell on the lines of majestic and extremely beautiful handwriting that appeared on Ling Tians answer sheet. Su Yu could not tell what was going on. She only thought that Ling Mo was messing around. Five minutes later, Ling Mo put down the pen in her hand and handed the answer sheet to Zhu Siliang, Most of the questions are relatively simple, so I only picked one or two difficult questions for each subject. Physics 11 points, Chemistry 13 points, Biology 18 points, Chinese 17 points, Mathematics 12 points, English 2 points, with a total of 73 points. Mo Mo, are you sure you didnt copy Xiao Tians answers? Su Yu couldnt help but laugh out loud. Ling Mo supported herself with one hand on the back of Su Yus chair. She bent down slightly and a smile appeared on her face. Aunty, are you treating me as your enemy? Otherwise, why do you always think Im so bad? This child, what nonsense is she saying! What I mean is that its fine if you cant read well, but at the very least, you have to be a decent person. Just now, you were clearly the one who copied Xiao Tians answer sheet in front of Principal Zhu and me. Why did you deny it in the blink of an eye? Su Yu thought that she had the upper hand, and her aura became even more imposing. She completely ignored Zhu Siliang, who had wanted to say something a few times but hesitated. All she wanted to do was complain to Ling Yunlong about how Ling Mo had copied Ling Tians answer sheet. However, just as she pressed the voice call button, Zhu Siliang suddenly spoke up and spoke up on Ling Mos behalf, Madam Ling, you must have misunderstood Student Ling. The questions that Student Ling wrote were all the missing points from this sample answer sheet. What? Missing points? Su Yu clearly did not expect such an outcome. Her already high-pitched voice became even sharper in an instant. Thats right. Zhu Siliang seemed to be reluctant to put down the answer sheet in his hand. His gaze was fixed on the strong and powerful handwriting on the answer sheet. Su Yu was stunned for a moment. After a long while, she opened her mouth and asked in a low voice, Principal Zhu, did Mo Mo get one or two questions right? Student Ling got all the questions right, especially the last question on the math paper. The solution is even more concise than the standard answer. At this moment, Zhu Siliang had completely changed his opinion about Ling Mo. He even showed her a friendly smile, I cant believe that Student Ling has improved so much in just a few days. Ill arrange for you to study in Grade 12 Class A for a month. Principal, with my current score, its not enough for me to enter class A. If I were to be favoured, Im afraid it would damage your reputation. If its better for you, you could arrange for me to study in Class F. Ling Mo decisively rejected Zhu Siliangs suggestion. Compared to Class A, which was strict and had flies everywhere, she preferred Class F, which had fewer restrictions. Moreover, the class teacher of Class F, Xiao Yingying, had once mocked her both openly and secretly. The current person she was, was not some saint with noble sentiments. As long as someone had offended her, she would definitely make up for it bit by bit. In her previous life, it was precisely because she was worried that her special identity would implicate the safety of her family that she decided to restrain herself and obediently become a pile of dirt that could not be helped. But now, after being completely hurt by her so-called family, she was no longer willing to make the slightest sacrifice for these insignificant people. Su Yu was so stunned that she almost lost her words. She stared at Ling Mo in a daze for a long while, still unwilling to believe that Ling Mo could actually answer the question that Ling Tian could not answer. Ling Tian had always been self-disciplined. She would study until midnight every night before she was willing to go to sleep. On the other hand, Ling Mo was either fighting or playing games online. How could someone like her who didnt even want to do her homework with a zero in all her subjects suddenly have an epiphany? Could it be that in order to stay in First High School, Ling Mo had already prepared everything beforehand? She was still unable to regain her senses when Ling Yunlongs deep voice suddenly came from the phone in her hand, Yuer, Mo Mo has just returned from the countryside. Its already a blessing that she has made some progress in her studies. Dont be too harsh on her. If she wants to go to Class F, then let her go. Mm, Ill listen to you. Su Yu hung up the call. A hint of gloom appeared on her exquisite face. For so many years, Ling Yunlong had never said anything harsh to her. In front of him, she had always been gentle and sensible. She did not expect that she would be provoked by this little fox Ling Mo until she almost lost her senses. How annoying! Aunty, are you not feeling well? Ling Mos clear glass eyes were sparkling with light. Although there was no smile on her lips, there was a faint mocking expression between her brows. Su Yu looked at the eye-catching Ling Mo and felt even more unhappy. She stood up angrily and was about to leave with a straight face when she was suddenly blinded by the reflection of the mirror outside the window. Only then did she remember that there was a large group of reporters waiting outside the teaching building. The reason why she had called this group of reporters was mainly to let the media expose Ling Mos rebellious, disobedient, and selfish nature. Only in this way would she be able to completely wash away the stigma of abusing her stepdaughter. When she got out of the car, she had originally planned to act out a scene of a wicked daughter pushing her stepmother. Unexpectedly, Liang Feifan, who had appeared out of nowhere, had messed things up. This time, without Liang Feifans interference, Ling Mo would definitely not be able to escape the trap she had meticulously set up. Su Yus eyes dimmed slightly. She changed her dark expression from before and stretched out her delicate hand towards Ling Mo, Mo Mo, help me out to get some fresh air. Maybe its because Ive been on an empty stomach for too long, and my low blood sugar is acting up again, causing me to feel very dizzy. Chapter 20 - What a Fake Fall Really Is Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Okay. Ling Mo readily agreed and grabbed Su Yus wrist tightly. She practically dragged her along as she strode towards the door. Su Yu frowned and said bluntly, Mo Mo, youre hurting me. After pushing open the principals office door with one hand, Ling Mo suddenly turned her head and said with a faint smile, Aunty is going to stage another fake fall this time? The best actress is indeed the best actress. She is always thinking of improving her acting skills. You Ling Mo had seen through Su Yus thoughts, and the colours of her face changed. Even though she had a glib tongue, she seemed to have lost the ability to speak. After a long time, she was still unable to utter a word. She subconsciously glanced at Zhu Siliang, who was sitting on the office chair and studying the answer sheet intently. When she saw that he did not notice anything, she relaxed and asked Ling Mo in an unfriendly tone, What do you mean? The corner of Ling Mos lips curled up. She pulled out a mischievous smile that was difficult to decipher. The smile could dazzle all living beings. She enunciated each word clearly, Open your eyes and look carefully. Today, Ill show what a fake fall really is. As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly pulled Su Yus hand straight and leaned back. She pretended to be frightened and muttered in a low voice, Aunty, you I Su Yu secretly panicked in her heart and hurriedly shook off Ling Mos hand. Her tone was slightly raised due to her overly excited emotions. Dont slander me! When the students passing by the principals office saw Su Yu aggressively charging at Ling Mo who had fallen to the side, they felt sorry for Ling Mo who was in a disadvantaged position. When Gu Bai, who was passing by the principals office, heard the situation, he instinctively dodged to the side, afraid that he would be burnt by the flames of war between the two women. However, when he saw Ling Mos appearance clearly, he swore a few times in succession. He staggered and almost fell to the ground. In order not to embarrass himself in front of this beauty, he hurriedly steadied himself and only dared to peek at her from the corner of his eyes. Oh my god! Even the fairy sister in Jin Yongs novel was only so-so compared to her?! She had big eyes and long lashes, and her gaze was extremely seductive. It was pure, yet lustful, and carried the vibe of a badass. She had a high nose and thin lips, and her every frown and smile exuded a charm that was incomparable. Coupled with her clean and fair skin, she was simply even more charming than Lu Jinjiu. Gu Tingbai sucked the saliva that was about to spill out of his mouth and muttered to himself, Why does it feel like Ive seen this girl before in my dreams? He scratched his head in confusion and pondered for a long while before he finally remembered where he had seen her before. Last night, Lu Jinjiu had shown him a photo of Ling Mo in a daze, saying that this girl was very likely to take down Qin Beiming. Not only that, Lu Jinjiu had also said that Qin Beiming fell in love with her at first sight and she was extremely precious to him Damn! Wasnt this too much of a coincidence? Gu Tingbai shook his head forcefully. After realizing that this was not a dream, his attitude changed drastically, Classmate, are you alright? He bent down and reached out his hand to Ling Mo in a friendly manner. He had to protect the girl that third brother Qin had taken a fancy to. Im fine. Ling Mo raised her dark eyes and looked at Gu Tingbai, who was also wearing a high school uniform, in slight surprise. In her previous life, he only knew that Gu Tingbai was born into a wealthy family in Linjiang City, but she did not know that they had been schoolmates before. Now that she thought about it, all of this should be fate. Ling Mo, tell me clearly, when did I push you? Su Yus tone was unfriendly as she looked coldly at Ling Mo who was used to acting. Suddenly, she realized that she seemed to have underestimated her. When she thought about how she had been played by a little girl time and time again, Su Yu wished she could slap her pretty little face. If you say you didnt, then so be it. Ling Mo replied indifferently, stood up, and walked towards the direction of the third-year teaching building without looking back. Classmate, are you really alright? Do you need me to carry you? Gu Tingbai followed behind Ling Mo like a little follower. As soon as he said this, he suddenly realized that Qin Beiming is a germaphobe, so he quickly added, Third brother is so stingy. If he knew that I carried you, he would definitely chop off my head. Why dont I go to the infirmary to get a stretcher and carry you away? Noob! Every time someone is on the stretcher, it seems to be you, right? Ling Mo could not help but laugh out loud when she recalled Gu Tingbai who kept dying in games. Sister-in-laws smile is very sweet. Gu Tingbai scratched his head. Although he did not understand Ling Mos words, he still laughed along with her. Sister-in-law? Ling Mo was confused. How did she become his sister-in-law? She remembered that Gu Tingbai had an entrepreneur brother. But the problem was that she and his brother seemed to have never met before, right? Calling her sister-in-law really came out of nowhere. After hearing that, Gu Tingbai realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he stammered to explain, Classmate, dont misunderstand. I just suddenly thought of a famous saying, and in a moment of excitement, I accidentally called you sister-in-law. Ling Mo raised her eyebrows and asked casually, Which one? As far as she knew, Gu Tingbai was good at science and bad at liberal arts. Until now, she still remembered that Gu Tingbai once said that Pan Jinlian was a character in the Analects of Confucius. She laughed so hard that she almost died on the spot. With the previous experience, she was really curious about what other famous words could come out of Gu Tingbais mouth. Gu Tingbai had no idea what Ling Mo was thinking. He replied casually, Dumplings are best when youre hungry, sister-in-law is best when youre After saying this, he could no longer continue. He slapped his forehead. Without waiting for Ling Mo to speak, he disappeared without a trace. F * ck! What was wrong with him today? If Qin Beiming found out that he had almost flirted with Ling Mo, wouldnt he be finished! Ling Mo looked at Gu Tingbais retreating figure and cursed in a low voice, I treat you as my little brother, but you want to flirt with me? Su Yu, who was frozen in the principals office, stared straight at Ling Mo, who was messing around with Gu Tingbai. She was so angry that she was about to go crazy. She hurriedly walked out of the teaching building and called her former manager, Zhao Jingchun, Brother Zhao, something has happened to me. Dont worry, you can tell me what it is. The entertainment reporters stationed at First High School seem to have taken pictures of me pushing Ling Mo. Do you think you can use your connections to get the negative back? Zhao Jingchun put out the cigarette in his hand and his tone became even more serious, Why are you so careless? After the commotion last night, how many netizens are waiting to see you make a fool of yourself? Even if youre holding back your anger, you shouldnt have pushed her in public. Su Yu was extremely depressed. If she had known that Ling Mo was so capable, she would have been more careful. But now, even if she had eight mouths, she couldnt win against a captured photo. After pondering for a moment, she took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, Tell me, how much do you need? Two million. What? Isnt it obvious that youre scamming me! Su Yu widened her eyes and kicked the stone steps in anger. She lost ten centimeters of her stilettos and even accidentally twisted her ankle.. Chapter 21 - 10 Against 1, Trash! Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Hiss Su Yu sucked in a breath of cold air, the pain causing her to furrow her brows. At this moment, she could no longer care about being elegant and dignified. She bit her red lips and kicked off the high heels on her feet. Damn it, why does it hurt so much! She bent down with difficulty and held onto her swollen ankle. In her heart, she had already cursed all 18 generations of Ling Mos ancestors. If it was just a sprained ankle, she would not be so angry. The problem was that in order to change public opinion, she had already spent a million dollars last night. Who would have thought that she would stumble again today and fall into the trap that she herself had set up? What bad luck! Su Yu, are you alright? Zhao Jingchun listened quietly to the movements coming from the other end of the phone and said coldly, Dont be anxious. Let me analyze this first. Actually, the incident last night had already been settled. However, someone leaked the news later on and let Bai Jie know about it. Its not like you dont know her well. She would step on you at every opportunity. Its exactly because she spent double the price to buy the first-hand draft from the media that the situation developed uncontrollably. So its her! Su Yu gnashed her teeth in hatred. She knew that Ling Mo was just a little girl from the countryside. How could she have the money to influence whats trending on Weibo. Thinking about this, all of this should have been instigated by that b * tch Bai Jie. She narrowed her long and narrow eyes and lowered her high-pitched voice, Back then, I was able to crush Bai Jie with my feet, and Im sure I can do it now. As long as Im around, she is just a side character. It wont be that easy to bring me down! Bai Jie wanting to bring you down is like an ant trying to shake a tree. Theres no way she can do it. However, if we dont raise the price, the media will definitely sell the photo of you pushing your stepdaughter to Bai Jie. By then, itll be even harder to control public opinion. Isnt it just two million? Ill transfer it to your account in a while. When Su Yu said this, her back teeth were grinding so hard that they were chattering. Although Ling Yunlong had always been very willing to spend money on her, apart from food and clothing, he would give her at most 100,000 yuan of pocket money per month. In addition, she had been retired from acting for many years and did not have any other income. It was not easy for her to save money. What was worse was that she had to coax her insatiable cousin every month. He only took and never gave anything back in return. It was like a bottomless pit, very annoying. Su Yu sighed gloomily and felt even more annoyed. After deducting the two million that was about to be transferred to Zhao Jingchuns account, she only had 170,000 left in her hand. What could 100,000+ do? When she was unlucky, she could lose all her money in a few rounds of Mahjong! Ling Mo had cost her three million yuan. If she didnt find a chance to make up for it, her surname wouldnt be Su! On the other side, Ling Mo had just stepped into the female toilet of the teaching building when she was blocked by a group of female high school students whose uniform that had been modified into miniskirts. Class F, Ling Mo? A sharp voice rang in Ling Mos ears, followed by a strong scent of perfume. Thats me. Ling Mo raised her hand and brushed Wu Xinyi, who was standing in front of her, to the side. She turned on the tap and washed her hands seriously and attentively. Slut, why are you still pretending? You were laughing so hard in front of Gu Tingbai, why arent you laughing now? Thats right! What kind of person is she? How dare she seduce the campus belle Tell me, what do you think will happen if you strip her clothes and skirt and throw her onto the basketball court? Wu Xinyi crossed her arms, and a malicious smile appeared on her already mean face. God knows how much effort she had put in to get into Class A in order to catch up with Gu Tingbai. Unfortunately, Gu Tingbai had a wooden head. No matter how much she tried to seduce him, he wouldnt fall for it. If she hadnt seen Xiong Chumos photo of Gu Tingbai and Ling Mo in the school forum, she probably wouldnt have known that someone was trying to seduce her dream man! The girls standing beside Wu Xinyi constantly ridiculed Ling Mo. There were even some who tried to tear off her dress. Let go. Ling Mo said coldly and kicked the girl closest to her on her lower abdomen. At the same time, she grabbed another girl who was mocking her and pushed her to the ground. Wu Xinyi did not expect Ling Mo to fight back. She subconsciously took two small steps back, but her momentum did not decrease at all. She glared at Ling Mo and gritted her teeth, F * ck! You dare to fight back? Everyone, attack together. If you get hurt, its on me. As soon as she said that, the girls who were standing at the entrance of the womens restroom to watch the show all took a few steps back. They were deeply afraid that they would be involved in this fight. 10 to 1, the winner and loser were obvious at a glance! Even the boys who majored in sports would not be able to withstand the attacks of more than 10 girls. Moreover, these girls were holding mops, brooms, dustpans, plungers, buckets, and all kinds of weapons. After Ling Mo washed her hands, she turned off the tap with a clatter. She turned her head and raised the ends of her eyes slightly, looking coldly at the girls who were eyeing her like a tiger watching its prey. As the swords were drawn, she smiled lightly and asked indifferently, You think you can hurt me? Wu Xinyi snorted coldly and rolled her eyes. If you have the energy to fight back, you might as well save some of your strength! When we strip you naked and throw you onto the basketball court, you can scream as much as you want. Ling Mo couldnt be bothered to waste her breath on her. She suddenly leaped into the air and jumped over two girls who were holding the mops. She kicked Wu Xinyis head sideways. With a kacha sound, Wu Xinyis jaw was kicked off its socket. Wah you go to hell! Wu Xinyi was in so much pain that her tears were falling. She grabbed the plunger with one hand from the hands of the girls in the same row. She wanted to stab Ling Mo who caused her jaw to dislocate. Ling Mo looked at Wu Xinyi whose jaw was tilted to one side and reminded her in a half-joking manner, Stop drooling. If your Prince Charming finds out that youve been beaten into a drooling doll, lets see if hell still pay attention to you. Ah! I Ill fight it out with you! Wu Xinyi was so agitated that she roared crazily. She raised the toilet plunger that was still stained with dirty water with both of her hands and smashed it straight at Ling Mos calm face. Dodge, move back, kick, trip her! After Ling Mo made a series of moves, the scene was completely silent. When everyone saw that Wu Xinyis head was about to hit the door of the toilet cubicle, Ling Mo slowly stepped forward and opened the door for her. In the next moment, with a plop sound, Wu Xinyis sharp little head plunged into the toilet bowl. Unfortunately, the previous person who used the toilet seat was not civic-minded and left without cleaning the toilet seat. This caused Wu Xinyis small mouth to be filled with a pale yellow liquid.. Chapter 22 - Ling Tian Apologized Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Xinyi, are you alright? The girl who was holding the mop in her hand saw the tragic scene and quickly threw the mop away. She supported Wu Xinyi, who couldnt even stand properly. Wu Xinyi felt extremely wronged. She pursed her lips and pulled at her neck whose muscles were twisted. She stared at Ling Mo with her red eyes, Todays matter is not over! Can you rinse your mouth before you speak? The smell is very strong. Ling Mo grabbed her wrist and grabbed the toilet plunger in her hand. Her voice was gentle, but her gaze was so terrifying that the girls around her could not help but tremble. Her gaze seemed to be looking down on all living things. Just one glance was enough to make people feel terrified. Who else wants to be beaten up? Bring it on. Ling Mo swept her gaze across the dozens of timid faces in front of her and unintentionally met Ling Tians poisoned eyes. In her memory, Ling Tian and Wu Xinyi were good friends. It seemed that Ling Tian must be involved in todays incident. Since Ling Tian wanted to give up her life to her, she would reluctantly accept it. She was just about to drag Ling Tian into this chaotic battle when Xiong Chumo beside Ling Tian actually snatched the bucket from another girls hand and threw it at her head. Ling Mo looked at the water droplets splashing in the air and her pupils contracted violently. With her skills, it was not difficult for her to avoid Xiong Chumos sneak attack. However, this scene reminded her of the strong acid that Ling Tian had thrown at her face before she died in her previous life. The pain spread to her limbs and bones in an instant. Hatred was reflected in her sharp eyes onto Ling Tians face. Anger erupted like a volcano and was about to burst out in an instant! Theres no door to hell, how dare you barge in. Ling Mo did not avoid the bucket of ice-cold bone-piercing water. She unruly wiped the crystal-clear water droplets away from her face. She grabbed Ling Tians collar with one hand and kicked Xiong Chumo into the toilet with the sole of her foot pressing down on her back, Drink it for me! Dont get up until youve drunk it all. Xiong Chumo struggled, but due to Ling Mos foot pressing down on her back, no matter how hard she tried, she was still unable to pull her face out of the toilet. Ling Mo, youre crazy! Those who started it are scums. Ling Mo unhurriedly loosened her leg and casually threw the toilet plunger onto Xiong Chumos body. Only then did she look at Ling Tian, who had been held in front of her and was so scared that her face had turned green. Ling Tian swallowed her saliva uneasily and was so nervous that she almost cried on the spot. She helplessly turned her head to look at the girls who were watching the show. There was an obvious sobbing tone in her voice. Help me. Are you afraid? The corners of Ling Mos lips curled up as she breathed into Ling Tians ear. Her black pupils shone with a bright and dazzling light that was both good and evil. Sister, dont go too far. If dad finds out that you bullied me like this, he will definitely fly into a rage and throw you into the countryside again. If you dare to say it, I will f * ck you to death. The dim yellow lights in the ladies room coated Ling Mos flawless white skin with a layer of hazy filters, greatly blurring her outstanding facial features. However, it magnified her cold voice infinitely. F * ck f * ck her to death? Ling Mos threatening demonic voice kept echoing in her ears, and Ling Tian was so scared that she did not dare to make another sound. She bit her lower lip, and large teardrops burst out of her eyes. If it were not for the fact that there were too many girls watching, she would have even thought of kneeling down to beg for forgiveness. After thinking about it for a long time, Ling Tian finally gave in. She explained in a low and timid voice, Sister, Im not the one who splashed the water. You must be mistaken, right? Ling Mo shrugged, appearing even more nonchalant. If Im mistaken, then so be it. Ill continue with my mistake. As soon as she said this, almost all the girls in the female toilet, including Ling Tian, were so scared that their legs went soft. They had originally thought that Ling Mo was just an idiot from the countryside. Who would have thought that her martial arts skills were so powerful! At this moment, many of the girls were already thinking of running away. But the problem was that they were too afraid of the feeling of being stared at by Ling Mos cold eyes. In order to avoid attracting attention, the girls who were initially noisy could only stand quietly on the spot, not even daring to breathe. After preparing herself psychologically, Ling Tian once again mustered up her courage and met Ling Mos sharp gaze. You dare to fight in school, arent you afraid of being expelled? Ling Mo sneered and smiled gently. Do you think Im afraid? Ling Tian: Im just joking with you. Why are you so nervous? Ling Mo tilted her nose and felt that Ling Tians weak personality was disappointing. In the next moment, Ling Mo suddenly let go of Ling Tians wrinkled collar and even helped her tuck in the corner of her skirt, As the saying goes, when sisters are united, their strength could cut through metal. Seeing that we are sisters, I will give you a chance to make up for your mistakes. What? Ling Tian tightly gripped the corner of her skirt. She wanted to tear Ling Mos face apart, but she did not dare to rashly go forward. Ling Mo crossed her arms across her chest and calmly looked at Ling Tian, who was trying her best to suppress her anger. Her lips raised into a joyful arc, Just now, someone said that they wanted to strip me naked and throw me on the basketball court. Do you know what to do? Ling Tian pursed her lips. Even though she was extremely unwilling, due to Ling Mos strong aura, she still chose to give in. She took a deep breath and slowly walked towards Wu Xinyi who was lying on the sink washing her hair. Xinyi, Im sorry. What do you mean? Wu Xinyi wiped the water off her face. Her scarlet eyes had long been blurred by tears. Slap Ling Tian no longer hesitated. She suddenly attacked and gave Wu Xinyi a hard slap. Im sorry. I was forced to do it. After hitting her, Ling Tian immediately retracted her hand. When she looked up, the tears on her face looked even more pitiful. Even you dare to hit me? Wu Xinyis voice suddenly became louder, and she completely vented her anger on Ling Tian. After all, compared to the headstrong and violent Ling Mo, Ling Tian, this little white flower, seemed to be easier to deal with. Humans were like that, always picking on the weakest. After a moment, Wu Xinyi held her dislocated chin with one hand and grabbed Ling Tians ponytail with the other, as if she was possessed and desperately pressed Ling Tian onto the sink. Ah! Help! Ling Tian choked on a few mouthfuls of dirty water and struggled with both her hands. Wu Xinyi, who was in a fit of anger, obviously did not intend to let her off so easily. Although the two of them had always addressed each other as best friends, they were both pampered daughters of rich families. How would she be willing to take the blow? Wu Xinyi was already jealous of Ling Tians superior family background. At this moment, she could no longer control the jealousy in her heart. She took the opportunity to rub her nails against Ling Tians delicate cheeks. Ling Tian, who had been hoping that the boys passing by would lend her a helping hand, knew that no one would come out to help her immediately after the bell rang. That was why she went all out and started to wrestle with Wu Xinyi.. Chapter 23 - News for Third Master Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Mo crossed her arms and looked at the two of them with great interest. It had to be said that the girls were quite crazy when they fought. In just a few minutes, Ling Tians image as the daughter of a wealthy family that she had worked so hard for many years was about to collapse. Wu Xinyi was naturally not any better. Her hair was messy and dirty. At this moment, she had completely thrown caution to the wind. She shook her head crazily like a small motor just to splash the dirty water on Ling Tians clothes. Ling Mo, who was leaning against the sink and leisurely watching the show, yawned lazily. Perhaps she was tired of watching this unskilled fight, she turned around and walked out of the ladies room calmly. Even though the school uniform was drenched, she did not look messy at all. At first glance, it was as if the legendary Luoshen was still alive. She looked around, her eyes sparkling. Xiong Chumo, who had originally planned to go to the teachers office to complain, saw that Ling Tian and Wu Xinyi had started fighting, so she didnt dare to act rashly anymore. After dealing with the dirt on her face, Xiong Chumo hurriedly called the girls beside her to stop the fight. Tian Tian, Xinyi, were all on the same side. Stop fighting. Whos on the same side as her? Ive never been slapped by anyone in my entire life. Ive already apologized to you. Youre the one who insisted on pulling my hair. If apologizing is useful, why do we need the police? Xiong Chumo looked at the two of them, who were getting more and more tense as they fought. She suddenly realized that the girl who was trying to stop the fight had also joined in the scuffle after being accidentally injured several times. Seeing that the situation was not looking good, she quickly picked up the half bucket of water under the sink and poured it onto the noisy girls. Calm down! Are you waiting to be punished for fighting in school? Are you crazy? Why are you pouring water on me for no reason! The fierce girl who was drenched by Xiong Chumo did not calm down because of the stimulation of the cold water. She pushed away the girl who was tugging at her dress and slapped Xiong Chumo on the cheek. Xiong Chumo did not want to be outdone. After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, she also started to wrestle with the fierce girl in front of her Half an hour later, when the head teacher and others arrived in a hurry, the chaos was finally settled. All the girls present were also wounded. Among them, the one with the most serious injury was Ling Tian. Not only were there a few scratches on her face, but there were also a few bruises on her body. The head teacher of Year 3 was so angry that his face was ashened. He coldly reprimanded the girls who were lying on the ground outside the female toilet. How dare you gather here to fight?! The university entrance exam is coming soon, so all of your attention should be on your studies! Ling Tian, who was curled up in the corner with disheveled hair and a face swollen like a pigs head, had tears in her eyes as she whispered like a kitten, Head Teaccher, its not what it looks like. In fact, we are all victims. After Wu Xinyi calmed down, she no longer argued with Ling Tian. She quickly took over and tearfully complained to the head teacher about Ling Mos atrocity, Ling Tian is right. All of this was caused by Ling Mo from Class F. She was the one who hit my chin! Hearing the two of them say this, the head teachers eyes turned cold and stern. Whos Ling Mo? Stand out for me. The girls looked at each other. Only now did they realize that Ling Mo had long disappeared. Seeing that everyone was silent, the head teacher casually pointed at a girl with a palm print on her face and asked, Where is Ling Mo? Where is Ling Mo? The girl who was pointed out answered timidly, Ling Mo isnt here. Then, did she start todays incident? Um Considering Ling Mos explosive combat strength, the girl was stunned and didnt dare to say a single word. After careful consideration, she finally shook her head with certainty. The head teachers brows knitted together, and then he turned his gaze to the good student he thought was the most trustworthy, Student Ling Tian, tell me what exactly happened. I I dont know what happened either. She just just suddenly started fighting. Ling Tian really wanted to expose Ling Mos atrocity to the head teacher but she was extremely afraid of Ling Mo, who didnt act normally. In order to protect herself, she could only swallow this cowardly breath and keep quiet about it. The head teacher originally thought that Ling Tian could give him a reasonable explanation, but after holding it in for a long time, she didnt even manage to reveal anything. At this moment, he could no longer control the anger that was about to spew out, and a burst of explosive roar erupted from his chest, All of you, go to the infirmary to bandage your wounds! Tomorrow morning, I wantto see your written self-reflection. If you dont write more than 3,000 words, you will be punished. Yes. The girls who were reprimanded were obviously intimidated by the head teachers imposing manner. They all shrunk their shoulders and ran towards the infirmary in groups of three or five. In Grade 12 Class As classroom, when the boys heard that Ling Tian had been beaten black and blue, they rushed towards the infirmary as soon as class was over. One had to know that Ling Tian was a treasure in their hearts. Not only was she good-looking, her figure was amazing, and she was talented. Even her academic results were top-notch. Most importantly, she was obedient. She would not skip class to fight, and she would never date casually. In short, in the boys hearts, Ling Tian was a goddess. When Class As class monitor Ji Yan heard that Ling Tian had been beaten, he put down the book in his hand for the first time and ran to the infirmary. Gu Tingbai glanced at Ji Yan, who was in a hurry, and shook his head helplessly. He lamented the famous saying of the Gu family, Confucius said that a womans skirt can not be torn. Once it is torn, it will blind all men. The student in front heard Gu Tingbais muttering, and a question mark appeared instantly on his face. When did Confucius say such a thing? He told me in a dream last night. Gu Tingbai mumbled to himself and habitually opened the campus app while relishing a melon as usual. Just as he opened the forums front page, Ling Mos photo came into view. The girl in the photo had a high ponytail, and the strands of hair that fell on her forehead were condensed into wisps by the water droplets. Under the sunlight, her jet-black hair shone with a rich satin luster, making her cold white skin even more eye-catching. The most eye-catching part was her pair of long and narrow peach blossom eyes. The photo was beautiful. She looked wild and badass. What the f * ck! Such beautiful dumplings, no! Sister-in-law! I have to quickly send them to third brother to take a look. Gu Tingbai glanced at the comments under the forum, and scrolling for a while, he impatiently sent a Wechat message to Qin Beiming. [ Third brother, shocking news! Do you want to know what happened? ] Qin Beiming, who was in the middle of a video conference, glanced at the phone on his right hand and politely replied with two words, [ Im not buying it. ] [ You really dont want to know? I forgot to tell you. I saw sister-in-law in First High School today. Shes so pretty! *Heart emoji* ] [ ? ? ? ] When Gu Tingbai received Qin Beimings reply, he was instantly energized. With a flip of his hand, he sent Ling Mos photo in the forum to him. Qin Beiming quickly opened the photo that Gu Tingbai sent. He stared at it for three minutes, but he still felt that he didnt have enough of it. This girl was completely his type. However, why were her hair and clothes wet? Chapter 24 - Third Master’s Actions Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Qin Beiming raised his sharp eyebrows and emotions surged in his deep eyes. Lets not talk about anything else. Based on the love he had for her since they met in Dihuang Hotel last night, he would not allow a girl who was on par with him in terms of martial prowess to be bullied by others. Lowering his eyebrows and narrowing his eyes, he quickly sent Gu Tingbai a Wechat message. [ What happened? ] [ Speaking of which, this is all my fault. This morning, I greeted sister-in-law, and the same photo was posted on the forum. Then, our classs crazy she-devil seemed to have brought a group of people and trapped her in the toilet, dousing her with water. ] When Gu Tingbai replied, the corners of his lips subconsciously curled up into a bright smile. Ling Mo was indeed very innocent, but this matter also highlighted how popular he was! [ You seem to be very pleased with yourself? ] Qin Beiming slammed his phone on the table. People like him who had a chivalrous spirit couldnt stand bullying in school. His personal assistant standing next to him was frightened and subconsciously took a few steps back. What was wrong with this man today? He was so angry early in the morning. Could it be that he was acting up again? Thinking of this, he quickly dug into his pocket and handed a bottle of backup chlorpromazine to Qin Beiming. Ill get a glass of water. Qin Beimings eyelids twitched slightly. He used his eagle-like sharp eyes to glance at Personal Assistant Chen. He pursed his thin lips in displeasure. Whats wrong with this stupid assistant? He was clearly not sick. Why was he giving him medicine? Personal Assistant Chen felt as if his body was under a spell when Qin Beiming stared at him. He did not dare to move. In his eyes, Qin Beiming was acting like a drunk. The whole world could see that he was sick, but he didnt think so. The temperature in the room dropped to a freezing point in an instant. Even the people who participated in the video conference kept quiet. They only stared at Qin Beiming, who was leaning back in his chair and seemed to be in a bad mood. Qin Beimings mind was no longer on the video conference. He tapped on the spotless table with one finger until he received Gu Tingbais reply. [ Third brother, actually, you dont have to worry about sister-in-law at all. Shes very valiant. She single-handedly defeated over ten girls. ] [ Why am I worried about her? ] Qin Beiming casually asked back. At this moment, he had completely forgotten the thought of killing his way to First High School to stand up for the girl. [ Um ] Gu Tingbai scratched his head. He could not understand Qin Beimings thoughts. Based on his urgency just now, he definitely had some feelings for Ling Mo. But in the blink of an eye, he didnt care anymore? He didnt expect his third brother to be a scumbag. He was really cold! After knowing that Ling Mo had already retaliated, Qin Beiming felt much better. He raised his hand and moved the notebook on the table to his lap. He didnt even maintain this position for a minute before he opened the photo album and clicked on Ling Mos wet body. Zoom in, zoom in again, zoom in infinitely Personal Assistant Chen narrowed his eyes and secretly glanced at Qin Beimings phone screen. With just one glance, the usually seriously Personal Assistant Chen could not hold back the surprise in his heart. He cried out, My God, what the hell is this!! As soon as he finished speaking, the video fell into silence again. Personal Assistant Chen had a shocked face. He innocently covered his wide-opened mouth and looked at Qin Beiming who was staring at him with a grievance. His gaze seemed to imply that he was looking at a fool, and there was a hint of speechlessness in it. Personal Assistant Chen was so scared that he did not even dare to breathe loudly. He was deeply afraid that if he made any more noise, he would be gone. Last night, when the astrologer said that he would be going through a bad period, he did not believe it. He did not expect it to come true so quickly. But then again, why was there a picture of a girl in Qin Beimings phone? Could it be that the ten-thousand-year-old tree had finally bloomed and was about to usher in a beautiful spring? Chen Guo, Im going out for a while. You will be presiding over the meeting. Qin Beiming casually threw the laptop in his hand into Personal Assistant Chens arms. With both hands on the table, he suddenly stood up and walked out with vigorous steps. He had just taken two steps when he suddenly turned his head and asked, Can I borrow your car to drive? Ah? Oh. Personal Assistant Chen did not expect Qin Beiming to borrow his car. Although he did not know his intention, he still obediently took out his car keys and presented them to him respectfully. Qin Beiming took the keys with satisfaction and took the neatly folded mens hoodie on the sofa with him. Personal Assistant Chens eyes widened. Only then did he notice the mens casual hoodie on the sofa that should not be there. This wasnt right! Qin Beiming never wore a hoodie. Could it be that there was really something different about his sexual orientation? Did he take a fancy to a boy? No. In his mobile photo album, it was clearly a girl. Or perhaps, the guy in his mobile photo album was cross-dressing In just a few dozen seconds, Personal Assistant Chen had spontaneously started a few rounds of brainstorming. Qin Beiming completely ignored Personal Assistant Chens eyes that were suddenly magnified and drove straight to the First High School in Linjiang City. Since there was nothing important today, he went to First High School for a spin to return the sweater to her. Qin Beiming held the steering wheel with one hand and skillfully unbuttoned two buttons with the other. It was said that the buttons of a shirt could not all be buttoned up. Otherwise, it would look too rigid. But in fact, for so many years, he had always buttoned all the buttons on his shirt. Moreover, todays intercontinental video conference was not an ordinary meeting. It concerned the formulation of the groups general marketing plan for next year, and all the shareholders of the group had participated. More importantly, Qin Beiming had never been a helpful person. That chivalrous spirit came to him on a whim. Ling Mo sat in the shade of the playground for the cool breeze for a while, but she still couldnt dry her wet hair. It was almost noon, and the sun was getting hotter. Only then did she return to Class F. As soon as she stepped into the classroom, the noisy boys suddenly quieted down and looked at the girl who had just transferred here last week. Ling Mo had long gotten used to this kind of gaze. With her original memory, she walked to her seat as if there was no one else around and gently tucked the corner of her skirt into her seat. She sighed lightly and felt even more disgusted with the school uniform skirt she was wearing. Who was the one who invented the short skirt? But at least it was cooling. Unfortunately, she couldnt sit with her legs crossed. Wasnt it funny to see her sit upright with her legs together like a lady? From the moment Ling Mo walked into the classroom, Li Wanwans eyes were glued to her, never leaving her. When she realized that Ling Mo was walking towards her seat, her heart almost stopped beating. After Ling Mo sat down for a while, Li Wanwan gathered her courage and timidly handed her a tissue. Deskmate, your hair is wet.. Do you want to wipe it? Chapter 25 - 025, the new campus belle Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Thank you. Ling Mo took the tissue, tilted her head, and gently dried the moisture on her hair. Li Wanwan didnt expect Ling Mo to thank her. Her face flushed red, and her hands bashfully twisted together. She thought for a long time, but still couldnt think of an answer. Looking up at Li Wanwan, who was as nervous as a young wife, the corner of Ling Mos lips lifted slightly, and she smiled faintly. Before this, she rarely took the initiative to speak to Li Wanwan, because in her inherent understanding, talking to an idiot was equivalent to wasting time. However, since her rebirth and return, her mentality had undergone a huge change. Li Wanwan caught the fleeting faint smile on Ling Mos face and could not help but stare blankly. Oh my god Someone save her! She was about to be overwhelmed by such a good-looking deskmate. Li Wanwan couldnt help but swallow her saliva as her heart pounded. She was completely immersed in the charming little dimple on Ling Mos right cheek. Even though she didnt make any movements at the moment, her heart was already thumping. Inside, she screamed crazily, Save me! Save Me! Shes killing me! In fact, it wasnt just Li Wanwan. The entire class was using the corner of their eyes to size up Ling Mo, this transfer student with a cold and unique temperament. The braver ones had already secretly taken out their phones and started to snap a photo of Ling Mo. After taking the photos, they didnt even bother to edit the pictures. They directly uploaded her pictures onto the high school forum. At the same time, they wrote a sentence that they thought was particularly arrogant, Who said that our Class F is the worst? In terms of looks, Student Ling of our class is the best. Soon, it received more than a hundred replies, and her popularity was also hyped to the top of the first page of the forum. After Gu Tingbai scrolled to the post, he was in a commenting frenzy. [ Sisters legs are not legs, its spring water by the Seine River. ] [ Sisters waist is not a waist, its the scimitar of the deadly sabre. ] The boy at the back table saw Gu Tingbai burying his head in the desk drawer, his shoulders shrugging as if he was having epilepsy. He patted his back with concern, Gu Tingbai, what are you looking at? Share it with your brothers? Go away, Im boosting Student Lings ranking! Gu Tingbai turned his head, his eyes sparkling with excitement. When he thought about how such a beautiful girl was about to become his third sister-in-law, he felt an inexplicable sense of pride in his heart. Student Ling? Are you talking about your deskmate, the school belle, or the transfer student from Class F? Dont you know that someone else has taken the title of school belle? Besides, Ling Tian and my table were just next to each other, we cant be considered deskmates. Watch what you say. Gu Tingbai retorted fiercely, eager to draw a clear line between them. He wasnt willing to take a second look at a pretentious girl like Ling Tian. The student from the back table asked with a puzzled face, Is Ling Mo from Class F really that good-looking? In his opinion, Ling Tian could already be considered as a beauty without a match. An ordinary girl couldnt even compare to Ling Tians little toe. Of course! Lets go, Ill bring you to Class F to witness it yourself. Gu Tingbai jumped up from his seat and dragged the boys at the back table towards Class F. The two of them had just walked out of Class A when they were stepped on several times by a large group of boys who were rushing towards Class F. F * ck! My shoes are they in a hurry to be reincarnated? The bell is about to ring, and theyre still gathered outside Class F. Arent they afraid of being caught by the class teacher?! Gu Tingbai watched as the perfect peeping point outside Class Fs glass window was about to be snatched away by someone. He couldnt care less about his shoes that had been stepped on until they were gray. He sprinted forward like he was in a 100 meter sprint. In an inconspicuous corner of Class F, Ling Mo sat quietly in front of her desk. She took out a brand-new physics textbook from the drawer and began to read it page by page seriously. She automatically shielded herself from the surrounding gazes of admiration, appreciation, and jealousy. She was as focused as a figure in a portrait. She was calm and aloof, and there was not a hint of discomfort on her clear and bright face. This Friday, there was a provincial joint exam for the third year of high school. She vaguely remembered that it was this joint exam that allowed Ling Tian to score a high score of 704 points and she was accepted into Intercontinental University ahead of schedule. Last time, she was stupid enough to give up the only spot in Intercontinental University to Ling Tian. No matter what happened this time, she would never repeat the same mistake. Ling Mo recalled the smug look on Ling Tians face when she held the acceptance letter from Intercontinental University. Her eyes flashed slightly, and she flipped through the book even quicker. To her, the difficulty of the joint exam was nothing at all. The reason why she was flipping through the textbook seriously was because she wanted to use high school-level knowledge to prepare for the exam. Otherwise, if she was allowed to do as she pleased, even the examiners might not be able to understand her argument. After the class bell rang, Li Wanwan was still thinking about Ling Mos thank you. Her thin lips were almost stretched to the back of her ears, even her eyes hidden under the thick lenses seemed to be filled with red hearts. Oh my god.. Her beautiful deskmate actually said thank you to her. If this were to be revealed, the boys in her class would definitely be jealous to death. Li Wanwan was secretly delighted. She held her heart like a fool and stared at Ling Mos exceptionally attractive side profile. The perfect head shape, the moderate height of the skull, the straight but elegant nose bridge, the well-defined and moist lips She really couldnt get enough of it no matter how much she looked at it. After Ling Mo finished flipping through a book, she finally noticed Li Wanwans gaze. She turned her head and her voice was as cold as ever, Have you seen enough? Ah Li Wanwan retracted her gaze guiltily and buried her head under the desk like a little quail that couldnt cover its eggs. Ling Mo looked at the exceptionally cute Li Wanwan and suddenly had the urge to pet a cat. In the next moment, she actually stretched out her demonic claws and stroked Li Wanwans soft hair. She smiled and asked, Listen to the lesson carefully. What is there to see? Its good! Youre so good-looking. Li Wanwan raised her head. Her bright eyes were sparkling with starlight, Deskmate, when you read seriously, youre really charming. You dont know, in just ten minutes, Ive been killed several times by your beauty. Is it as exaggerated as you say? Ling Mo asked indifferently and began to flip through the brand-new chemistry textbook. At this moment, Xiao Yingying, the class teacher of Class F, who had just squeezed through the crowd of figures outside the classroom, slammed the classroom door with a bang. Xiao Yingying was covered in sweat from being squeezed by the boys from the other classes. She was worried that she had nowhere to vent her anger, but when she happened to catch a glimpse of the two people whispering in the corner, she instantly exploded. She picked up half of the chalk on the desk and threw it at Ling Mos head with a whoosh. Youre quite brave. You actually dare to chat in my class? Especially you, Ling Mo! You still dont want to study hard after getting a zero in all subjects? The class average is going to be dragged down by you. Youre a useless burden.. Chapter 26 - Challenged the Class Teacher Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Who is a burden? Ling Mo nimbly avoided the chalk that was thrown fiercely at her and slowly put down the chemistry textbook in her hand. She stared blankly at Xiao Yingyings furious gaze. Xiao Yingying shook off the chalk dust in her hand and walked down from the podium in her high heels. The one whos speaking is a burden! Hahaha She must be furious. She actually admitted that she is the one who is a burden. This transfer student is so cool! As soon as Xiao Yingying said this, the class suddenly burst into thunderous laughter. In this day and age, there were not many people who could make her suffer. Ling Mos action made her a true warrior of Class F. Xiao Yingying was so angry that her face turned red. Her lower abdomen contracted, and her chest swelled. In an instant, a deafening roar erupted from her throat, Ling Mo! Get out of the classroom immediately. Why? Ling Mo Juns beautiful brows furrowed slightly, and her voice turned colder. The boys in the class saw that Xiao Yingying was so angry that her entire body was trembling. They frantically winked at Ling Mo, hinting for her to quickly apologize to Xiao Yingying. One had to know that Xiao Yingying was famous for her fierceness. Her fierceness had nothing to do with her name at all. They heard that during a teachers team-building activity, the head teacher once joked that Xiao Yingying should be more like her sweet-sounding name and smile more. Unexpectedly, Xiao Yingying couldnt bear to hear anyone say anything bad about her. She flew into a rage and she almost cracked the head teachers head open with a bottle of wine. From then on, no one dared to joke around with Xiao Yingying anymore. Even the most mischievous student would take a detour when they saw her. Li Wanwan, who was scared out of her wits by Xiao Yingying, pursed her lips and wanted to cry. However, when she thought about how her beautiful deskmate was still in dire straits, she finally mustered her courage and whispered shakily to Ling Mo, Deskmate, dont be afraid. I will protect you. If the fat-faced Yaksha reprimands you, I will say that I am the one who is pestering you. You must not clash head-on with her. Li Wanwan was worried that Ling Mo would be scared silly by Xiao Yingyings actions. She carefully held her hand tightly. Sensing the warmth coming from her palm, Ling Mos furrowed brows gradually relaxed. She turned her head and her gaze landed squarely on her and Li Wanwans intertwined hands. She suddenly felt warm. Li Wanwans hands were fleshy. She did not feel warm when she held them in her palm, but her heart felt like it was shone on by the setting sun. Suddenly, a warm current surged out of her body. Ling Mo had never known that it felt so good to be protected by someone. Her heart was suddenly touched. She had intended to return a friendly smile to Li Wanwan, but Xiao Yingying had already rushed to her desk. With two muffled bangs, Xiao Yingying slammed one hand on the desk and spat at Ling Mo, Ling Mo, do you know that its all because of you that the average score of the class has reached a new record low? Its fine if you dont do well in the exam, but you still dont listen to the lecture seriously. If you dont want to study, then go back home and be a farmer! Teacher, its all my fault. Dont blame Li Wanwan took a deep breath and steeled her heart to take the blame. Unexpectedly, Ling Mo was the first to let go of her hand. She stood up from her seat and said clearly, word by word, Teacher, I dont agree with your point of view.. Chapter 27 - I Want to Have Your Baby, Sister Mo! Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Ling Mo was nearly 1.7 meters tall. When she stood up, she was half a head taller than Xiao Yingying, who was wearing high heels. Xiao Yingying no longer seemed as imposing as she did. At first glance, everyone could not tell who was lecturing whom. Xiao Yingying, who was used to an authoritarian teaching, could not bear the disobedience of others. She angrily asked, What do you mean? If you dont want to study, just say it. Ling Mos expression was calm as she retorted unhurriedly, There are a total of six classes in the third year of high school. Class F is ranked at the end of the exam. Am I really dragging you down? Isnt it because theres something wrong with your teaching method? You still have the nerve to say that my teaching isnt good with a zero in all subjects? If you cant do well in languages alone, Ill accept it. The key is that you dont have any subjects that youre good at. Ling Mo seemed to have touched Xiao Yingyings sore spot, and her voice became increasingly shrill and ear-piercing. As soon as she finished speaking, she began to count with her fingers the students in the class whose academic results were passable. She wanted to rely on the top students of the class to defend her. To her great disappointment, the students in the class actually leaned towards Ling Mo. No matter how many names she called out, they pretended not to hear it. After the tense atmosphere lasted for a few seconds, a naughty boy broke the silence. He clapped his hands and shouted excitedly, Student Ling is right! Then, the entire class began to applaud Ling Mo, this true warrior. In fact, they had wanted to say Ling Mos words for a long time. However, based on the head teachers experience, they didnt dare to say what they were thinking to Xiao Yingying. Xiao Yingying didnt expect that this group of bastards would dare to rebel. Her expression changed, and her blood pressure, which was already unstable, rose rapidly. She clutched her chest, which was rising and falling, as if she had just participated in a 100-meter sprint. She panted as she returned to the podium, her face full of exhaustion and defeat. The class monitor, Cheng Cheng, saw that there was something wrong with her expression, so he kindly asked, Teacher, are you alright? Xiao Yingying was obviously unwilling to accept his kindness. She just threw a stack of test papers onto the first row students desks and said sternly, You dont want to study anymore, right? Fine, if you dont want to learn, then do the test papers. Those who fail, either call their parents, or go to the playground and run ten laps by themselves. Ling Mo glanced at the test papers that were on the desk in front of her and casually threw them into the paper basket at the back of the classroom. She really didnt want to do the test paper that Xiao Yingying had given out. Li Wanwan was deeply afraid that Xiao Yingying would catch a glimpse of Ling Mos actions, so she hurriedly picked up the test paper for her. Deskmate, bear with it for a while. Everything will be fine. Ling Mo could see the obvious worry on Li Wanwans face. Her heart softened, and she took the test paper that she handed over. Just as she was about to pick up her pen, Li Wanwan eagerly came up to her again. Deskmate, why dont you copy mine? No need. Ling Mo shook her head and roughly browsed through the test paper before she started writing rapidly. Li Wanwan stared blankly at Ling Mos test paper and sighed with heartfelt emotion, Deskmate, your handwriting is really good. If you want to learn, Ill bring you a calligraphy paper another day. Ling Mo finished the test paper at an extremely fast speed. Only then did she turn her head to look at Li Wanwan, who was holding her heart and staring at her in a daze. My name is Ling Mo. Ah my my name is Li Wanwan. Wan is the same character as the word curve. Li Wanwan accidentally let out a groundhog-like scream. Her bright eyes were misty under the thick lenses. Was she really not dreaming? ! Not only did her beautiful deskmate offer to bring her a calligraphy paper, but she also gave her a formal self-introduction. Oh my god, happiness came too suddenly. Li Wanwan looked like she had successfully confessed her love to her idol. She was so excited that she almost jumped up and down. You are very cute. Ling Mo complimented her sincerely. Perhaps it was because her mood had changed, she really liked girls like Li Wanwan who were simple, kind, and warm. Deskmate, I want to have your baby! Li Wanwan got excited and blurted out a phrase that was used by fans to chase after celebrities. Ling Mo raised her eyebrows slightly and pursed her thin lips. She fell into silence once again. She was a straight woman. How could she have a baby with a girl? In fact, she wouldnt be able to give birth to any other creature with her. Xiao Yingying glared at Li Wanwan, who was chattering non-stop. Instead, she blamed her anger on Ling Mo. After drinking more than half a bottle of goji berry water, she walked toward Ling Mos desk with her heels thumping loudly. You didnt listen well in class and didnt work hard on the exam papers. What exactly do you want to do? Li Wanwan saw Xiao Yingying approaching again, and her body trembled. She didnt have time to be afraid, so she swapped hers and Ling Mos exam papers with lightning speed. Although Ling Mos handwriting was very good, her academic results were publicly known to be poor. Theres no doubt that Ling Mo definitely wouldnt pass the exam this time. In order to protect Ling Mo, Li Wanwan made up her mind and quickly signed her name on Ling Mos exam paper. She even thought that it was foolproof and gave her a knowing smile, Deskmate, take my test paper and hand it in. Passing shouldnt be a problem. Although Im not very good at sports, I should be able to run ten laps. Ling Mo originally wanted to take back her test paper, but seeing Li Wanwans firm attitude, she had no choice but to give up. She thought in her heart that it was just a casual exam, its fine as long as she could pass it. No matter how fierce Xiao Yingying was, it was impossible for her to be unreasonable in front of so many students. However, when she roughly browsed through Li Wanwans answer sheet, she realized that she seemed to have overestimated Li Wanwans ability. She didnt fill in fifteen questions, so she only managed to get 60 points. In addition, there were a lot of typos. After some deducted points, she barely managed to get 40 points in the end. So Ling Mos lips twitched as she stroked Li Wanwans soft hair. Wanwan, is your language subject taught by a sports teacher? No. The language teacher in our class has always been Xiao Yingying. There has never been a change. Li Wanwan was confused and pointed at Xiao Yingying who was getting closer and closer. Ling Mo sighed helplessly. She had intended to fill in some answers on the answer sheet, but Xiao Yingying did not intend to give her the chance to pick up the pen. With a whoosh, the answer sheets on her and Li Wanwans table were removed at the same time. Two answer sheets, one with brilliant strokes and one with a series of typos. Xiao Yingying stared at the answer sheet for a long time and suddenly felt a little confused. Which one was Ling Mos? She was very clear about Li Wanwans knowledge. But the problem was that the other answer sheet was too perfect. Xiao Yingying really could not believe that Ling Mo was of that standard. It wasnt until she noticed the name Li Wanwan at the top of Ling Mos answer sheet that her doubts were dispelled. She stared at Li Wanwan for a few seconds seriously and said in a gentle voice, Youve improved a lot recently. Your handwriting is majestic. Your answer is concise and clear, full marks. Ah? Li Wanwans eyes widened in disbelief. She really didnt expect that her beautiful deskmate would be so capable! Zero in all subjects? But the actual clown was herself?? Chapter 28 - Third Master: I’ll be there soon.” Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Before Li Wanwan could regain her senses, Xiao Yingying frowned and aimed her fire at Ling Mo, You didnt even get 40 points, and youre still so arrogant? Go to the playground and run ten laps, and ask your parents to come over when they have time. Teacher, youre mistaken. The person who didnt get 40 points is Li Wanwans face was sprayed by Xiao Yingyings saliva, and she immediately regained her senses. However, before she could finish her sentence, Ling Mo had already dragged her out of Class F. Deskmate, why didnt you let me finish my sentence? The person who got a perfect score was obviously you. Li Wanwans eyes were red, and she was so guilty that she didnt know what to do. As soon as she opened her mouth, bean-sized tears slid down her bright red cheeks. Why are you crying? Its not a big deal. Ling Mo looked at Li Wanwan, who was sobbing non-stop, in confusion. Her tone was gentle, and it was completely different from her usual cold and indifferent self. Li Wanwan was so sad that she couldnt help herself. She squatted on the ground and mumbled, I feel so guilty. Its all my fault. If it werent for me, the class teacher would definitely change her opinion of you. Do I need her to change her opinion of me? Ling Mo didnt care about Xiao Yingyings attitude at all. Instead, she stuffed her phone into Li Wanwans arms and said softly, Record the video of me being punished. Deskmate, are you really planning run? If I dont, wheres the evidence? Li Wanwan blinked and asked in confusion, Can the video of you being punished to run really become evidence? I feel that even if we hand the video over to the principal, the principal wouldnt dare to question the Yaksha. Hand it over to the principal for what? I just want to ask the citys education bureau how to deal with this kind of corporal punishment. We are forced to run after failing our language exam. Dont tell me that by running a few more laps, your language will improve by leaps and bounds? Ling Mo felt that Xiao Yingying was definitely not targeting her because she had a zero in all subjects. Class F was the worst class. Although no one had ever gotten a zero in all subjects other than her, there were plenty of people who had gotten only ten to twenty points. If there were no other reasons, Xiao Yingying would not have targeted her. After thinking about it, there was only one possibility, Su Yu had interfered. Ling Mo curled the corners of her lips. When she looked up, there was already a plan. Deskmate, what you said seems to make a lot of sense. Why dont you record me running! Li Wanwan took off her thick glasses and wiped the tears on the lenses as she gave a sincere suggestion. Youre too slow. Let me do it. Ling Mo decided without any room for discussion. In the blink of an eye, she spread her legs and ran wildly on the track at an extremely fast speed. Her outstanding figure quickly attracted a large group of students who were in physical education class. Gu Tingbai, who was playing basketball, saw his teammates abandon him and rush towards the track. He turned his nose and grumbled impatiently, How boring. Isnt she just a long-legged girl? Look at how excited you are. He turned around and glanced at the slender figure on the track. The words that were about to come out of his mouth were forcefully swallowed back. After he found out that Ling Mo was running as punishment, the first thing he did was send a photo of Ling Mo running to Qin Beiming. [ Third brother, sister-in-law is being targeted by her class teacher. She is being punished to run on the field! ] [ Ill be there soon. ] Qin Beiming frowned, and his hand that was holding the steering wheel subconsciously tightened. Wasnt that girl quite capable when she was insulting him? The blow that she gave him almost sent him flying. Even now, he was still feeling the pain slightly. Why was she so cowardly in front of others? Chapter 29 - Third Master: I’m Her Uncle Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation On the other side, Ling Mo had successfully gotten rid of the boys who were trying to hit on her. She had completed the last lap smoothly. The strands of hair on her forehead were drenched in sweat. They stuck to the end of her eyes firmly. They were like sparkling rhinestones, adding to her charm. Holy sh * t, shes a superwoman! She only took 75 seconds to run a 400-meter lap. Awesome! 75 seconds? In other words, she ran 4,000 meters in less than 13 minutes? The students on the inner side of the track either worshipped or looked enviously at Ling Mo, who had excellent athletic talent, and spontaneously applauded for her. Outside the track, the third-year high school PE teacher, who was holding a timer in her hand, was too excited. Her tendons and muscles were trembling all over her body. She roared like she was going crazy, Student, you broke the record! Li Wanwan heard the deafening roar of the physical education teacher and ran towards Ling Mo who was slowly returning like a king. She eagerly handed her a bottle of water. Other than concern in her sparkling eyes, there was also a hint of admiration, Deskmate, you are really amazing! I heard that your speed is enough to break the highest record of the domestic youth tournament. Is that so? Ill remember to be slower next time. Ling Mo took the mineral water and mechanically poured it into her mouth. In just a few seconds, she finished a 380ml bottle of mineral water. Ling Tian and Xiong Chumo, who had just walked out of the school infirmary together, heard waves of cheers and applause on the field. They stretched their necks out of curiosity and looked at Ling Mo, who was in the center of the field as if she was being worshipped. Seeing that Ling Mo was in such a good mood, Xiong Chumos bruised face looked even more ferocious. She lowered hrt voice and complained to Ling Tian indignantly, Whats going on? Didnt they say that Ling Mo failed the examination and was physically punished by the Yaksha? Who knows! In order to cover the swelling and bruises on her face, Ling Tian lowered the brim of her cap and said with a sour tone, Even drinking water can bring out a myriad of emotions. Shes really something. Who knows, maybe the PE teacher in our class has already become her subordinate? Youre right! B * tch Ling must be seducing the PE teacher and asked the PE teacher to plead with Yaksha on her behalf. Xiong Chumo placed her hands on her hips and echoed with indignation. Just looking at her posture, people who did not know would think that Ling Mo had stolen her boyfriend. Ji Yan, who was following behind Ling Tian, followed Xiong Chumos gaze and looked indifferently at Ling Mo, who was glowing in the crowd. It had to be said that Ling Mo was indeed very good-looking. Even though they were tens of meters away, she still looked outstanding. Class monitor, could it be that you are as shallow as Gu Tingbai and the others and have been captivated by Ling Mo? Xiong Chumo suddenly turned around and saw that Ji Yans gaze was also on Ling Mo, so she asked accusatorily. How is that possible? I dont like bad students. As Ji Yan spoke, he kept sneaking glances at Ling Tian. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to reveal his true feelings to her, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he didnt know where to begin. To him, Ling Tian was the mysterious moon, the pearl of the deep sea, beautiful and precious. Before he had the ability to give her the happiness she deserved, he only dared to hide this love in the bottom of his heart Sensing Ji Yans gaze, Ling Tian quickly turned her head away, afraid that he would see her swollen face. Su Yu had told her that no matter when or where, the perfect goddesss persona must not be broken Once the persona was broken, those men who had once regarded her as the dream lover would not be as crazy for her without asking for anything in return. It was also because of this that she had put on a thick mask for as long as she remembered. Even her every frown and smile had to be practised carefully. She had to be elegant, charming and flirtatious at the same time. At this moment, without the support of her beauty, her confidence was greatly reduced. She drooped her head listlessly, and her mood continued to drop. Ji Yan had never seen Ling Tian look so lonely, and his heart ached endlessly. After hesitating for a while, he finally mustered up the courage to follow her. I heard that Ling Mo from Class F is your sister? Yes. Did she bully you like this when she was at home? Ling Tian nodded lightly and even shed two tears in response. When my sister is in a bad mood, she would take it out on me. Seeing Ling Tian shed tears, Ji Yan couldnt care less about anything else and asked repeatedly, Do you need me to find someone to teach her a lesson? Of course! Xiong Chumo was instantly energized when he heard Ji Yans words and started to spout nonsense, Class monitor, Xiao Tian has been bullied so miserably by Ling Mo. You will definitely stand up for Xiao Tian, right? What right does the b * tch of Class F have to bully our class precious student? Just thinking about it makes me angry. Chumo, dont say anymore. I will admit defeat in this matter. You must not drag Classmate Ji down with you. When that time comes, if sister holds a grudge against Classmate Ji, what should we do? Ji Yan saw that Ling Tian was so concerned about him and secretly rejoiced. In order to show off his ability, he patted his chest and promised Ling Tian, Dont worry, I will definitely do it without leaving a trace. But Dont be afraid, just pretend that you dont know anything. After hearing Ji Yans words, Ling Tian didnt say anything else. Just as she turned around, she cast a meaningful glance in Ling Mos direction. A long time ago, she had heard that Ji Yans family background was not ordinary. Everyone in his family was not to be trifled with. Even the people in the underworld had to give them some face. This time, Ji Yan was willing to personally go up against Ling Mo. Ling Mo definitely would not have a good ending On the sports field, a large group of sports students gathered around Ling Mo and patiently chatted with her. Classmate, are you interested in joining the schools sports team? I heard that your academic results are not very good. Why dont you consider joining the schools sports team? When that time comes, if you can win a great award, you can gain a lot of points in the university entrance examination. Ling Mo was annoyed beyond words. She had planned to knock down all the bullheads and horses around her with one sweep, but she saw Qin Beiming in a suit walking toward her with vigorous steps. Can I talk to you for a moment? Qin Beimings aura was very strong. As soon as he opened his mouth, the sports students surrounding Ling Mo automatically made a path for him. Li Wanwan, who was next to Ling Mo, subconsciously went in front of her and asked in a low voice, Deskmate, do you know this person? Just as Ling Mo was about to say that she didnt know him, Qin Beiming had already answered for her, Im her uncle. Ling Mo looked at Qin Beiming who didnt change his expression and felt that he was speaking nonsense in a serious manner. He sounded like a human trafficker. Generally speaking, wasnt this what a human trafficker would say? First, he would pretend to be a relative and then use some random excuse to drag the person away. There were usually only two outcomes after being dragged away. First, the victim would be sold off to be someones wife. Second, the victim would be unconscious and thrown into a dark alley. Then, one of her kidneys would be stolen. Chapter 30 - Third Master Qin Wearing A Fake Brand?? Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Thinking about it, Ling Mos impression of Qin Beiming became even worse. She glared at Qin Beiming, who was only an arm away from her, and a hundred killer moves suddenly flashed through her mind. The shoulder throw was feasible. With a little bit of effort, she could ignore Qin Beimings advantage in body size. It was also possible to do a cross-arm slash and a flipping kick. First, she would suppress his muscular upper arm, and then she would hit his lower body where it hurt. She would definitely be able to catch him off guard. He would not consider strangling her for the time being. Their height difference of about 20 cm would make the strangling process extremely comical When Qin Beiming saw her staring straight at him, a dark light flashed across his deep eyes. Was this girl infatuated with him? This morning, he was just being polite and casually greeted her. She then ran away shyly. Now, she had actually overcome her extreme shyness and stared at him brazenly in front of so many people. Did she make up her mind to confess her love to him? Thinking about how he was about to hear a love confession from a girl whos so beautiful, Qin Beiming had an inexplicable sense of anticipation in his heart. Are you in P.E. class? In order to conceal his nervousness at this moment, Qin Beiming was the first to break the strange silence. His voice was mellow and extremely magnetic. Coupled with his casual smile, it was simply enough to seduce a person. There were already quite a number of girls on the field who had fallen in love with Qin Beimings magnificent beauty. Their screams rose and fell like a wave. After learning that he was Ling Mos uncle, even their impression of Ling Mo improved a little. Ling Mo ignored the envious or jealous gazes that were thrown at her. She looked steadily at Qin Beiming and said coldly, Are you very free? Qin Beiming had appeared way too often in the past two days. First, he followed her into the mens washroom. Then, he stopped the car and pretended to meet her by the river. Now, he even brazenly came to the school and shamelessly pretended to be her uncle The more she thought about it, the more confused she felt, Gigolos nowadays would go this far in order to get clients? But the problem was that even if he wanted to get potential customers, he should have chosen a rich lady like Su Yu. She was just a poor student, what did he want from her? For the school meal card in her pocket? Or perhaps, his discerning eyes saw her potential and was prepared to convince her to follow him into the sex industry? Tsk What a pity. At such a young age, he had hands and legs. He could have done anything, yet he insisted on selling his body. Ling Mo shook her head. Other than vigilance, there was also an inexplicable sense of regret in her long and narrow eyes. Qin Beiming was full of confidence and thought that Ling Mo had already planned to confess her love to him. However, he was awakened by her extremely cold question. The dreamy thought in his mind instantly dissolved. It turned out that the girl had never thought of confessing to him. However, this was also normal. High school students still had to focus on their studies. This was not the time to date. Qin Beiming frowned and replied indifferently, Just passing by. He turned around and strode towards the school gate. After he walked for a while, Ling Mo realized that the mens sweater hanging on his arm was the one that she had left in the mens washroom at Dihuang Hotel. Could it be that his purpose of coming here was related to this mens sweater? In order to figure out his intention and to avoid any unnecessary complications, Ling Mo quickly followed up and asked tentatively, Uncle, is there anything else? Hearing Ling Mos cold voice that had a hint of softness, Qin Beimings back slightly stiffened, and a trace of regret suddenly appeared in his heart. At first, he was just worried that it would not be good for a man like him to look for her in school, so he specially made up the identity of an uncle. If he had known that she would call him so sweetly, he would have shamelessly pretended to be her brother. After daydreaming for a while, Qin Beiming sighed in resignation, turned sideways, and said slowly, Come with me. Where are we going? Qin Beiming glanced at Ling Mos clothes, which were still wet, he answered concisely, To my car. Ling Mo was speechless. She really wasnt willing to sit in a strangers car. But in order to get back the hoodie, she had to force herself to follow. Gu Tingbai, who was in the middle of the crowd, saw Qin Beiming easily convinced Ling Mo to get into his car. He was so excited that he quickly took out his phone and took nine consecutive shots of their backs. He vaguely remembered that Lu Xun once said that the more serious a man looked, the more flirtatious he would be. Indeed, he was right! After secretly taking pictures of Qin Beiming, Gu Tingbai quickly sent a Wechat message that only Gu Nanfeng, Huo Yunting, and Lu Jinjiu could see, [ Xue Lai once said that when a man unbuttoned the second button of his shirt, spring is not far away. ] Just as Gu Tingbai was completely immersed in his brilliant writing, a series of photos that were posted anonymously on the schools forum had already caused a small stir. Within five minutes, the number of comments had exceeded 100, and the number of views had exceeded 1,000. Just as he scrolled to the new post on the forum, Xiong Chumo rushed over to Ling Tian, who was busy scrolling through the topics. She pointed at Qin Beimings handsome face on the screen and asked, Xiaotian, is this your uncle? No. Strange. The poster said that this man called himself Ling Mos uncle had brought her out of school. How is that possible? My father is an only child and has no siblings. Ling Tian raised her head. Her eyes dimmed and her gaze lingered on Qin Beimings well-tailored suit. This man could actually afford an Emperors suit? ! As the worlds top luxury brand, the price of Emperors suit would not be lower than 800,000 yuan. Moreover, Emperors mens suit series was very high-end. They were only willing to accept orders from some influential members in Europe. Ordinary people would not be able to buy it even if they had the money. She still remembered that at the end of last year, in order to get Ling Yunlong an Emperors suit, Su Yu had used more than half of her connections in the entertainment circle. In the end, it was all for naught. Xiao Tian, what are you looking at? Xiong Chumo stretched out a hand and waved it in front of Ling Tians eyes. Im wondering what kind of background this man has, to actually be able to wear an Emperors mens suit. Ling Tians round eyes stared at Qin Beimings almost perfect profile on the screen without moving, and her mind quickly thought about the young nouveau riche in the rich circle of Linjiang City. After confirming that the man in the photo had never appeared at a gathering of the upper class in Linjiang City, her heart that was hanging high in her throat finally calmed down, I must have seen wrongly just now. This man should be a second-generation pseudo-rich, and the clothes hes wearing are also fake. Pfft hes so handsome, but hes wearing fake clothes? Xiong Chumo burst out laughing. She had thought that Ling Mo was really that capable. She had only returned for less than a week but had already managed to hook up with a rich and handsome man. She did not expect that the truth would be so satisfying! Xiong Chumo was extremely excited. She switched to an unknown alternate account and immediately replied in the forum post, [ Refute the rumours! This man was not Ling Mos uncle. He was the fake rich man that she had just hooked up with. He was wearing a fake brand and had probably undergone plastic surgery. Cheap man and dirty b*tch, it is quite a match.. ] Chapter 31 - Love Was An Imagination of Third Master Qin Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Gu Tingbai scrolled to the point where Qin Beiming was accused of being a philanderer and laughed so hard that he couldnt even stand up straight. He quickly started a Wechat group and sent out a few screenshots from the forum. Qin Beiming frowned slightly and took out his phone that was vibrating non-stop. He glanced at the title of the group Pick Up Girls Group and immediately left the group chat. Ling Mo was still with him. He did not want her to think that he was a playboy. Besides, he was not interested in picking up girls. Instead of wasting his time on women, he might as well start a business and earn a few billion. Then, Huo Yunting and Gu Nanfeng also left the group chat. One of them was interested in someone else and the other was obsessed with money. They hated this kind of vulgar group chat. Among them, only Lu Jinjiu, who likes flirting with girls, was interested in this kind of gossip group chat. [ Xiao Bai, what the hell are you doing? Dont you know that these old men are not interested in picking up girls? ] [ Oh I was too excited and forgot about that. *dog emoji* ] Gu Tingbai slapped his forehead and quickly changed the group name to Third Brother Wife-chasing Support Group. The group name was changed and they were invited back into the group. They were much more well-behaved now. Qin Beiming glanced at the words Third Brother Wife-chasing Support Group on his phone screen and quietly put his phone back into his pocket. It was really troublesome to leave the group, so he decided to keep it for now. Out of curiosity, Huo Yunting also clicked on the various screenshots sent by Gu Tingbai, as well as the photo of Qin Beiming and Ling Mo. In the photo, he saw an iconic eagle sculpture. He immediately tagged Qin Beiming in the group: [ First High School is owned by Huo Corporation. Do you need a role in First High School? ] Gu Tingbai, who was busy taking photos secretly, took the time to reply for Qin beiming, [ Third brother went to coax the girl into the car. He has no time to reply now. ] The group suddenly fell into a strange silence. Other than Qin Beiming, everyone else turned on the timer on their phones. At the entrance of the high school, in an inconspicuous black business car. Ling Mo stared at Qin Beiming with a fierce gaze. Her tone was somewhat guarded, You came to First High School to look for me just to return the clothes? Yes. Qin Beiming nodded, his long legs curled up. Thank you. Ling Mo thanked him politely and distantly. Seeing that he was not in a hurry to return it, she reached out and grabbed the sweater on his lap. Qin Beiming thought that Ling Mo wanted to use the opportunity to touch him, so he quickly changed to a more reserved sitting position and subconsciously moved his body toward the car door. Before this, he had never had a member of the opposite sex on the passenger seat. It was his first time bringing a girl into the car, so he couldnt help but feel a little nervous. In addition, Ling Mo was very proactive. Even though he didnt show it on the surface, he was already panicking in his heart What should he do next? He couldnt make a move on a woman, nor could he be under a woman. If Ling Mo were to push her luck and approach him slowly, how could he defend himself? At that moment, the words that Lu Jinjiu kept repeating in his ears all of a sudden rang in his mind, A man had to protect himself when he was outside. Damn it Was his innocence really going to be taken by this girl? If He really could not escape this calamity, he might as well take the initiative instead of being passive The more Qin Beiming thought about it, the hotter he felt. He tugged at his collar and slowly turned his head to look at Ling Mo, who had already retracted her hand and was staring at him warily. In the cramped space, other than the sound of their breathing, there was also the scent of male hormones that made ones face blush and heart race. With sexual tension in the air, it was indeed easy for something inappropriate to happen. However, Ling Mo, who only wanted to take back her hoodie, did not notice Qin Beimings electrifying gaze. She saw that a corner of the hoodie was trapped under his thigh. She lost her patience and asked through gritted teeth, What exactly do you want to do? With her question, Qin Beiming suddenly came back to his senses. The image in his mind also disappeared at this moment. Im sorry. I didnt have a good rest last night. Its easy to get distracted. He pursed his lips and lit a cigarette. In the misty smoke, his nerves finally relaxed. Ling Mo cast a sidelong glance at Qin Beiming, who was shrouded in the thin smoke and appeared particularly mysterious. She casually pulled out a cigarette from his cigarette case, Lend me a light. The thin smoke silently floated in the air, gathering and dispersing, inadvertently reminding her of that unbearable memory. She still remembered that when she had just moved to the countryside, every few days, a group of gangster girls would chase after her for protection money. Their behavior was crude and their taste was vulgar. The smoke rings that came out of their mouths always made her cough uncontrollably. Later, in order to beat violence with violence, not only did she learn how to fight, she was also used to smoking and drinking. Qin Beiming glanced at her and put out the cigarette in his hand without any warning. He said calmly, I dont like the smell of smoke. Ling Mo: Was there really nothing wrong with this mans brain? He started pretending before the smoke had even dispersed, saying that he didnt like the smell of smoke. If he really didnt like it, then why was he smoking? After a few exchanges, Ling Mos impression of this pretentious flashy-looking man who was very likely to be in the sex industry or the human trafficking industry, became even worse. Qin Beiming did not know what Ling Mo was thinking. Noticing that the clothes on Ling Mos body were not completely dry, he turned on the heater in the car and asked in a deep voice, Why are your clothes wet? Its cooling. Qin Beiming could see the annoyance on her face. He only knew that the girl was still in her rebellious phase, so he had to give her some space. Put on the hoodie. Dont catch a cold. After he handed the hoodie over, he opened the car door on his own accord, wanting to give her some space to change. Im not cold. Ling Mo was one step ahead of him and got out of the car with the hoodie. Qin Beiming saw her running away quickly and a faint smile suddenly appeared on his handsome face. This girl seemed cold and aloof, but he didnt expect her to be so shy. She hadnt even said a few words before she became too shy that she ran away. Chapter 32 - Qin San Tried to Cover Up His Shortcomings Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Gu Tingbai, who was hiding in the dark, saw Ling Mo got out of the car and quickly stopped the timer. He narrowed his eyes and took a look. It had only been three minutes! F * ck.. He had thought that Qin Beiming would be able to do it effortlessly seven times in one night. He did not expect that he could not even last three minutes Could this be the legendary saying that beneath the gold is rusted steel? Gu Tingbai shook his head repeatedly. He heaved a long sigh as he typed furiously in the Wechat group. [ Why is it only three minutes, third brother! ! ] [ Is it because of lack of experience or lack of Yang energy? Do you want to get it checked? ] [ Could it be that third brother is really like what Brother Lu said, hes only interested in men *shocked emoji* ] Qin Beiming glanced at the groups messages and suddenly felt a dull pain in his head. Gu Tingbai and Lu Jinjiu had only been quiet for a few days, but now they had started a new round of rumors. It seemed like there was no end to the rumors. On the other hand, Lu Jinjiu did not expect Gu Tingbai to expose him so blatantly. He was so angry that he cursed on the spot. Damn it! Gu Xiaobai is such a pig. He cant do anything except betray his own teammates! In order to divert Qin Beimings attention, he had no choice but to try his best to change the topic, [ Third brother, do you really not care about Miss Lings chaotic love history? Having a third abortion is no joke. You might end up infertile for life. ] Qin Beiming frowned slightly and said seriously, [ Xiao Jiu, if you didnt see it with your own eyes, dont spout nonsense. ] [ Ah, this third brother, dont tell me youve really fallen in love? ] [ Do I look like such a casual person? ] Qin Beiming sneered. He did not believe that he would be defeated by a girl. As soon as he said that, Lu Jinjiu began to test his luck again, [ You do seem like one. *dog emoji* ] Gu Nanfeng: [ What Xiao Jiu said makes sense.] Gu Tingbai: [ I agree with the comments above. ] [ Yunting, say something fair. ] Qin Beiming pursed his lips and mentioned the quiet Huo Yunting. Huo Yunting was a decent man. In order to save Qin Beimings face, he did not choose to defect at the last minute. Instead, he forcefully changed the topic, [ I just checked the vacancy in First High School. So far, the school doctors assistant, the physics substitute teacher, and the counselor have not been recruited. Do you want to consider it? ] [ Alright, Ill earn some extra money. ] Qin Beimings words shocked everyone. As the third young master of the Qin family, did he still need to work part-time in a university to earn extra money? Truly unexpected! Lu Jinjiu pinched his thigh and asked in disbelief, [ Third brother, are you really not joking? ] [ When have I ever been joking? ] Qin Beiming put down his phone, his dark eyes fixed on the empty passenger seat as his thoughts drifted further and further away. At this time, the smell of tobacco in the car had not gone away. But he could still smell unique scent that was different from tobacco on the passenger seat. The scent was very faint, but it had a unique calming effect. Last night, when he met Ling Mo at the elevator entrance, Qin Beiming had already noticed this. In order to find out the source of this strange scent, he became a person different from his usual cold self and followed her into the mens room like a complete pervert. Unfortunately, after all that, he still found nothing. Qin Beiming frowned and lit another cigarette for himself. His attending doctor had said that if he could not find the source of the illness, his condition would become more and more serious. At the beginning of the illness, it was only some slight mania. A shot of Valium would fix it. Now, the dosage of the drug had increased, but his condition showed no signs of improvement. If this continued, even if he did not die young, he would be completely reduced to a seriously mentally-ill patient. And the strange scent that had a calming effect coming from Ling Mos body was undoubtedly a huge turning point for him. Perhaps as long as he found out the source of the strange scent on her body, he would be able to successfully synthesize a drug that could alleviate or eradicate the strange illness on his body After figuring out the main reason why he was obsessed with Ling Mo, Qin Beimings tightly knitted brows suddenly relaxed. He knew that a ridiculous thing such as love at first sight would never happen to him. If there really was love at first sight, it could only happen to an inexperienced girl like Ling Mo. After extinguishing the cigarette butt, Qin Beiming skillfully fastened the button on his shirt collar. He did not stay any longer and drove away in Personal Assistant Chens car.. Chapter 33 - Ling Tians Complaint Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation In the afternoon when school ended, Liu Zhong was waiting outside the school gate of First High School on time. Seeing Ling Tians delicate face swollen like a pigs head, Liu Zhong was shocked and asked with concern, Second Miss, what happened? Nothing. Ling Tian sniffed and sat in the front passenger seat sullenly. Seeing that Liu Zhong hadnt gotten into the car yet, she suddenly raised her head and said impatiently, What are you doing by the car door? Why arent you driving? This Miss Mo hasnt come out yet. Why dont we wait a little longer? Liu Zhong looked at the direction of the school with a troubled expression. Although he had always disliked Ling Mo, who acted like a gangster, she was still the Ling familys eldest daughter. As a full-time driver, his most important role was to escort the two daughters of the Ling family to and from school. If Ling Yunlong didnt say anything, how would he dare to abandon Ling Mo on his own? After waiting for two to three minutes, Ling Mo was still nowhere to be seen. Ling Tian became increasingly impatient and scolded Liu Zhong, If you dont want to do it, just say it. Ill get my dad to replace you right now! As soon as she finished speaking, Ling Tian immediately gave Ling Yunlong a call. Just as she called out dad, tears began to fall. On the other end of the phone, Ling Yunlong heard Ling Tian crying her eyes out. He was so anxious that he kept asking, What happened? Are you bullied? This morning, when I went to the bathroom, I saw sister arguing with someone, so I went up and tried to persuade her. Sister was probably still angry, so she raised her hand and slapped me a few times. Outrageous! How dare she bully you? Ling Yunlong rolled up his sleeves when he heard Ling Tians words, waiting for Ling Mo to come home and beat her up. Ling Tians voice was choked with sobs, and she was out of breath from crying. Sister also threatened me that if I dared to tell you about this, she would kill me. Nonsense! Ling Yunlong was so angry that he stood up from the sofa. Put her on the phone. Uncle Zhong and I have been waiting for her at the school gate for a long time. I havent seen her come out yet. But I heard from my classmates that sister seems to have gone out with a few boys. Ling Tian sobbed softly. Her poisonous eyes were staring straight at Ling Mo who was surrounded by a group of boys in the rearview mirror. One had to admit that Ji Yans efficiency was really high. In just half a day, he actually found a group of local hooligans to follow his orders B*tch, she still dares to go out and fool around? Ling Yunlong flew into a rage, frantically sweeping away all the tea leaves that Su Yu had brought for him. Su Yu frowned slightly and tilted her head to ask softly, Whats going on? Could it be that Mo Mo has caused trouble again? This damn thing! Other than causing trouble, what else can she do? Ling Yunlongs face was flushed red, and his blood pressure, which was already unstable, rose rapidly. Seeing this, Su Yu quickly went forward and gently caressed his undulating chest. She gently advised him, Dont be so angry that you affect your body. Its not worth it. Little brat, shes too insensible! Ling Yunlong was so angry that his head was dizzy. It was only when he heard Ling Tians intermittent sobbing on the other end of the phone that he softened his tone, Xiao Tian, let Liu Zhong send you back first. Theres no need to wait for her. Okay. After hanging up the phone, Ling Tian gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks and changed her expression in the blink of an eye. She crossed her arms and rolled her eyes indecently. She urged Liu Zhong in a cold voice, What are you waiting for? Hurry up and drive. Okay, Second Miss. Liu Zhong wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He did not dare to delay any longer and quickly started the car. At the back of the car, Ling Mo and Li Wanwan had just walked out of the school gate when they were blocked by a group of yellow-haired hooligans. You are the new campus belle of First High School? The leader of the hooligans raised his eyebrows and looked at Ling Mo with an obvious wretched look in his eyes. At the back of the car, Ling Mo and Li Wanwan had just walked out of the school gate when they were blocked by a group of yellow-haired hooligans. You are the new campus belle of No. 1 High School? The leader of the Hooligans raised his eyebrows and looked at Ling Mo with an obvious wretched look in his eyes.. Chapter 34 - Danger Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation No, youve got the wrong person. Li Wanwan stood in front of Ling Mo and glared at the group of yellow-haired youths with unknown intentions. Where did this four-eyed frog come from? Go away. Youve ruined my plans, Ill take care of you as well. The thug with a tattoo sleeve spat out the toothpick in his mouth and swaggered towards Ling Mo with dozens of underlings. Li Wanwan had never seen such a scene before. She shrunk her neck and quickly hid behind Ling Mo. She said with a sad face, Deskmate, what should we do now? Ling Mo put her phone into the breast pocket of her school uniform and said indifferently, You might bleed and break your bones. You must not be cowardly in a fight. Deskmate, you cant beat them. Lets escape quickly, shall we? Li Wanwan was so anxious that her eyes were full of tears. She held Ling Mos arms tightly with both hands, intending to drag her in the opposite direction. Wanwan, stand further away. Ling Mo pushed away Li Wanwans sweaty hands and walked towards the leader with her head held high and chest puffed out. You guys are looking for me? Youre really pretty! Want to play with us? The leader threw a flirtatious glance at Ling Mo while stretching out his thick arms and reaching for her shoulder. Here? Ling Mo dodged the salacious hand that was coming for her. She raised her eyebrows slightly and asked him in a teasing manner, Then to the alley by the side? The thugs obviously did not expect Ling Mo to be so playful. He rubbed his hands excitedly and smiled lecherously. Deskmate, dont! Li Wanwan held onto the corner of Ling Mos shirt nervously. She was so scared that her whole body trembled and she almost cried on the spot. Dont worry, nothing will happen. Ling Mo made a silent gesture and turned around to walk towards the alley without turning back. Behind her, the group of yellow-haired hooligans had all sorts of expressions on their faces, and they instantly became cautious. Do you think that the newly-promoted campus belle from First High School has something wrong with her? I dont think if this girl isnt an idiot, shes definitely a slut. Think about it. If a normal girl were to see so many men, her legs would have gone soft from fear. How could she be like her, rushing to get close to us? Thats true. Who cares if shes normal or not, we wont be the ones at a disadvantage. But Young Master Ji said that just breaking one of her hands is enough. He didnt ask us to violate her? She invited us. She would be the one violating us. Li Wanwan listened to their foul language. Her legs were so weak that she could barely walk. In order to protect her beautiful deskmate, she risked being discovered by others and secretly took out her cell phone and called the police. However, before she could make the call, her wrist was grabbed by a shifty-eyed hooligan. Youre bold! How dare you call the police? You cant do this! If anything happens to us, youll all go to jail! Tsk Whats there to be afraid of in jail? Its not like weve never been to jail before. When the hooligan saw that Li Wanwan was pretty, he suddenly had evil intentions. He used his other hand to remove the thick glasses on her face. Motherf * cker, how dare a scumbag like you touch my people? Ling Mo looked back and saw that the yellow-haired hooligan was trying to flirt with Li Wanwan. She kicked the bridge of the hooligans nose. In the next moment, there was a kacha sound. The hooligans hand that was holding Li Wanwans wrist was also broken by Ling Mo. It hung limply on his body. F * ck! B * tch, you actually dare to fight me? When the leader of the hooligans saw that his brother was beaten to the ground by a girl, he instantly became ruthless. He gritted his teeth and before he could even stand properly, he pounced at Ling Mo. Ling Mo did not dodge. She grabbed the neck of the thug with one hand and threw him onto the ground with a swift shoulder throw. She did not forget to kick his vital parts. The thugs saw that Ling Mos skills were extraordinary and looked at each other. For a moment, no one dared to take a step forward. The thug was badly injured by Ling Mos kick. He grimaced in pain and curled up on the ground, howling in pain, What are you all standing around for? Attack together and kill her! Dont tell me you cant beat a B * tch with so many people? Ling Mo turned a deaf ear and looked down at the thug with the sleeve who was lying on the ground. She stomped on his cheek with a cold voice. One could not tell whether she was happy or angry, Speak, who instructed you to come? Bullsh * t! Do you think someone can order me around? The thug with the tattoo sleeve was stubborn. He turned his head and took a cold breath. He was still unwilling to reveal the person behind them. Youre not going to say anything, are you? Ling Mo bent down and grabbed the yellow hair on his head. She pressed his head and smashed it onto the ground. Li Wanwan, who was curled up in the corner, saw that Ling Mo had the upper hand. She jumped behind her like a rabbit and sang a rap while trembling. She provoked the thug who had already lost his ability to fight, As long as youre obedient, Ill buy you a street. If youre not obedient, Ill give you shit! Hearing this, Ling Mos body stiffened slightly. Puzzled, she turned her head to look at Li Wanwan, who had suddenly started rapping behind her. Li Wanwan had never done such a crazy thing. Being stared at by Ling Mo like this, she blushed shyly and said softly, Deskmate, I dont have any other intentions. I just want to cheer you on. You sang well Ling Mo gave a doting smile and conveniently pet Li Wanwans soft hair. Li Wanwans eyes lit up. She was bursting with joy when she saw the rest of the gangsters rushing towards the two of them. She screamed in fear, Deskmate, watch your back! Ling Mo quickly pushed her to the side and swept her cold gaze across the gangsters who were coming from all directions. The aura around her was very cold. It was so cold that it made peoples hearts tremble. The yellow-haired gangsters sensed a strong killing intent coming towards them and stopped in their tracks. They raised their heads to look at Ling Mos slender figure in the alley. Seeing that she was unarmed, they cursed and charged forward. Damn it! This B * tch really knows how to pretend. Her eyes are cold and she almost scared me. Coward, isnt she just a little slut? I can beat her alone. Youre right. The wilder she is, the better. Brothers, today is your lucky day. Ling Mo couldnt be bothered to waste her breath on them. When she turned around, a gust of wind blew past her ears, and a violent murderous aura filled the sky. She raised her head abruptly, and her gaze was fierce and wild. She lifted the umbrella in front of the cafe by the roadside and rotated the umbrella with one arm. Her other hand took out a handful of silver needles from her pocket, and in the direction that the umbrella leaf was rotating, all the silver needles in her hand flew out. With a few swooshing sounds, a few silver needles pierced through the thick umbrella and nailed onto the crotch of the gangsters.. Chapter 35 - Magnificent Blow! Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation F * ck! It hurts so much! What the hell? How can there still be hidden weapons in this day and age? ! B * tch, you dont fight fair. Wu Im going to be incontinent The gangsters who were shouting and fighting just a second ago were defeated at this moment. They covered their bloody crotches, called out to their parents, and howled in grief. Deskmate! Your crotch-piercing needle is so impressive! Li Wanwan, who was watching the show from the side, was full of admiration. She spoke from the bottom of her heart. Such a superwoman was actually her deskmate. It was really unbelievable! Ling Mo put the umbrella in her hand back to its original position and made a silent gesture to Li Wanwan. Then, she stepped on the face of the hooligan and said impatiently, Tell me, who asked you to come? B-Boss, if I tell you, can you be merciful and let me go? The thug with the tattoo sleeve saw Ling Mos abnormally valiant strength and was so scared that his whole body was convulsing. He wished that he could be like his brothers, close his eyes and lie on the ground pretending to be unconscious. You still dare to bargain in front of me? Ill give you three seconds. If you dont tell me who the mastermind is, you know what will happen. Dont hit me, Ill tell you! The mastermind is Before the thug could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Ji Yan who was striding over. He looked coldly at the domineering Ling Mo and said calmly, Im the mastermind. Standing up for Ling Tian? Ling Mo turned her head slowly. When she saw the face of the person clearly, the corners of her lips curled up. There was a hint of mockery in her words. Yes. You almost disfigured Ling Tian. I had someone break one of your arms. Is that a problem? Ji Yan pursed his lips. When he thought of Ling Tians pitiful face that had been beaten black and blue, his impression of Ling Mo dropped. Ling Mo pursed her lips. She couldnt be bothered to talk to the idiot. She raised her fist and punched him in the face. He was even capable of hiring a murderer. Was there anything that he couldnt do? What a scum! Today, she was going to beat him until his teeth were all over the ground. Ji Yan saw that Ling Mo suddenly extended her hand and mistakenly thought that she was trying to seduce him. He quickly turned around and said in an unfriendly tone, Man and woman shouldnt be intimate. Stay away from me. Ling Mos clenched fist froze in the air, and she looked at him as if she was looking at a fool. When they were fighting, was this still important? This was ridiculous as trying to be ladylike when one is taking a shit. When Li Wanwan learned that this group of hooligans was sent by Ji Yan, she was so angry that her cheeks were completely red. She furiously rebuked him, Top students of Class A can do whatever they want? They can openly bully girls? Go away. Ji Yan ignored Li Wanwan, whose cheeks were flushed red, and questioned Ling Mo sternly, Ling Tian is your sister, not your enemy. You always try to bully her. Where is your conscience? Just as Ling Mo was about to speak, she was once again interrupted by the agitated Li Wanwan, Which eye of yours saw my deskmate bullying someone? Or did you see with the bottom of your feet? Ji Yan, Ji Yan, as the name suggests, you have corn in your eyes! Ji Yan almost couldnt catch his breath after being rebuked by Li Wanwan. After thinking for a long time, he still couldnt think of anything to say, so he said to Ling Mo again, Do decent girls know how to fight? Dont fight and wait to be beaten up? My deskmate is different from your favorite former school belle, Ling Tian. If she doesnt rely on herself, who should she rely on? Li Wanwan became even angrier. She tugged at Ling Mos arm and said indignantly, Deskmate, beat him up! Beat him up! Why use a butchers knife to kill a chicken? Ling Mos thin lips parted slightly. She stared at Ji Yan with a half-smile and enunciated each word clearly, I, Ling Mo, have always taken revenge for the smallest grievance. Logically speaking, I would have crippled your hands and feet to vent my anger. Since this is your first offense, Ill give you a discount for now. You have two choices, break one of your arms, or break one of Ling Tians arms. A crafty look flashed across Ji Yans uncertain face. Without waiting for Ling Mo to finish, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and said somewhat proudly, I turned on the recording. If anything happens to Student Ling Tian again, I can totally use this recording to call the police and arrest you. Ling Mo, from now on, you are not allowed to bully Ling Tian anymore. Otherwise, I will make the recording public and tear off your hypocritical face in front of everyone. Who doesnt know how to record? Ling Mo sneered and unhurriedly took out her phone that was in her chest pocket. I just started the live broadcast after school. I didnt expect it to come in handy so quickly. Thirty thousand people watched it in twenty minutes. The effect seems to be pretty good. Ji Yan didnt expect Ling Mo to have a backup plan. His eyes were wide open, and he was shocked beyond words. Despicable! He subconsciously stretched his arm, trying to snatch the phone that was broadcasting live from Ling Mos hand. Ling Mo nimbly dodged and asked in a deep voice, Youre allowed to record, but Im not allowed to live stream? You! Ji Yan pointed at the tip of Ling Mos nose and clenched his fist. Ling Mo turned off the live broadcast interface with a pa sound. She looked at the exasperated Ji Yan with a half-mocking expression and said with a bright smile, All the netizens on the internet can clearly see that it was you, Ji Yan, who hired someone to harm me first. Today, if you dont give me an explanation, I will drag your precious love into the whirlpool of public discussion. You better be careful of retribution! As Ji Yan said those harsh words, he looked at Ling Mo anxiously, hoping that she would let him off the hook. If there really is retribution, it wont be on me. Ling Mo shrugged and asked impatiently, Do you still want to break your arm? If not, I will go back and look for Ling Tian to collect the debt. When Ji Yan heard what Ling Mo said, he was completely anxious. He had originally hoped that the thugs he had hired with a lot of money would help him, but to his great disappointment, this group of thugs could only pretend to be dead on the ground. Helpless, he could only harden his heart and slam into the wall. Once, twice, three times Until his arms were completely exhausted. You havent eaten? Cant you use more strength? Seeing that he hadnt broken his arm after a long time, Ling Mo yawned lazily and grumbled disinterestedly. Ji Yans eyes were bloodshot from being provoked by her, and he mustered all his strength to ram into the wall. In the next moment, there was a crisp kacha sound. Ji Yan was in so much pain that he couldnt straighten his back, and his back slowly slid down against the outer wall. There was a hint of grievance in his eyes, but more than that, there was anger. Are you satisfied with this? I just collected some interest. Im not satisfied. Ive already paid you with my arm. What else do you want to do?Ji Yan leaned weakly against the wall, his face flushed with anger. Li Wanwan raised her glasses and rolled her eyes at Ji Yan, Are you really innocent or are you pretending to be innocent? You found a group of gangsters to deal with my deskmate. Although you only asked them to break her arm, do you really think that they will let my deskmate go? You know how bad it would be if they got hold of her, dont you? Thats why one of your arms isnt enough.. Chapter 36 - Using the Whip Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation After being exposed by Li Wanwan, Ji Yan appeared to be somewhat guilty. His face was filled with 70% awkwardness and 30% defeat, but there was no trace of regret. In the beginning, he really did not want this group of gangsters to harm Ling Mo beyond a certain extent. But when he sensed Ling Tians hatred for Ling Mo, he made up his mind and was prepared to irreparably damage her. Benevolence and morality were important. However, if he could win Ling Tians heart, he would obediently do whatever he was asked to do. What exactly do you want? After calming his breathing, Ji Yan dragged his half-crippled arm and struggled to stand up along the wall. Ling Mo crossed her arms and looked down at the half-disabled Ji Yan from above. She smiled and sneered, You have to ask yourself that. Im just going with the flow. I dont have a strong motive. Deskmate, stab his crotch with a needle! Paralyse his lower body and make him sterile! Li Wanwan had never seen such a shameless person like Ji Yan. She was so angry that her eyes were red and her head was dizzy. Ji Yan looked at the two people in front of him, who were going back and forth with each other, and his molars were grinding. He had originally planned to use his familys influence to deal with Ling Mo. However, the tricky thing was that Ling Mo had started a live stream beforehand to record the whole process of him paying for the murder. This meant that once something happened to Ling Mo, regardless of whether it was his doing or not, the police would treat him as the first suspect. After careful consideration, he could only temporarily give up on the idea of dealing with Ling Mo. He put down his attitude and asked her nicely, This whole thing started because of me. Please be magnanimous and let Ling Tian off. You cant even protect yourself, and youre still thinking about your precious love? Ji Yan frowned slightly and asked in a slightly confused manner, What do you mean? Are you blind to the law? Ling Mo looked speechlessly at the confused Ji Yan and patiently explained, The whole process of you hiring a murderer to hurt someone has already been spread through the live stream. Now, if you think you could bury this with your connections, youre a fool. I believe that the police will soon come for you. At that time, youll be locked up for two to three years. Who are you fooling? Ji Yan thought to himself. He was not yet eighteen years old. At most, he would be locked up in the juvenile detention center for a few days. Ling Mo guessed Ji Yans thoughts and said calmly, By the way, Ill remind you that you have to bear criminal responsibility for hiring a murderer to hurt someone. Even if youre not an adult, you can still be sentenced to probation according to the law. Hearing what Ling Mo said, Ji Yan was completely dumbfounded. Thinking that his future was likely to be ruined because of this, he could no longer control his emotions. He collapsed on the ground and howled hysterically. Criminal celebrity, you deserve it! Li Wanwan rolled her eyes at Ji Yan. Then, she held onto Ling Mos arm and walked out of the alley with light steps. It was night. When Ling Mo returned to the Ling residence, the sky had completely darkened. She looked at the brightly lit living room from afar and knew that there was still a tough battle waiting for her in the huge Ling residence. Just as she changed into her shoes, Ling Yunlong rushed out of the living room angrily and scolded her, B * tch, youre getting more and more outrageous! How many times have I told you? If you want to stay in the Ling family, you better behave yourself. Yet, youve turned a deaf ear to everything Ive said. Have you said enough? Ling Mo straightened her back and looked coldly at the furious Ling Yunlong. In her memory, he had always been like this. He never asked how much she had suffered and only scolded her. Seeing that Ling Mo was still indifferent, Ling Yunlong raised his arm and was about to hit her. Seeing this, Ling Mo took a step back and her sharp lips curled into a mocking smile, Youre already an adult, cant you be more serious in your work? The scandal regarding Shi Jian Group hasnt subsided yet. If theres another scandal about the chairmans domestic violence, do you think Shi Jian Group still has a chance to turn things around? Dont talk nonsense with me! Let me ask you, why did you bully Xiao Tian? When did I bully her? Ling Mo asked back coldly. Her sharp eyes went past Ling Yunlongs broad shoulders and looked at Ling Tian, who was lying in Su Yus arms with tears in her eyes. Ling Tian felt a chill down her spine when Ling Mo stared at her. She suddenly shivered. She pursed her lips and hid behind Ling Yunlong while crying. She sobbed, Dad, Im scared. Ling Yunlong saw that Ling Tian was so scared that her face turned pale and her whole body was trembling. He glared at Ling Mo and said in an unfriendly tone, If you dare to touch Xiao Tian again, Ill break both of your legs today. Ling Mo curled the corners of her lips and said teasingly, This little one wants to break my arms by borrowing someone elses knife, and this old one wants to break both of my legs. It really is a nest of snakes and rats. What a loving family. After saying this, she originally wanted to use her extraordinary martial prowess to deal with this house of ghosts and monsters, but she suddenly remembered that she had started a live broadcast before entering the house. So she held back and watched their performance. You still dont know how to repent after doing something wrong. Today, I will beat you until you kneel and beg for mercy. Ling Yunlongs patience was exhausted. He turned around and shouted at Nanny Wu, Go and get the whip. Yes, Master. Nanny Wu replied obediently. In the blink of an eye, she brought a thick whip to Ling Yunlong. Ling Mo glanced at the old-fashioned leather whip on the tray and once again recalled that stormy evening with dark clouds looming. Seven years ago, after Ling Tian accidentally fell down the stairs, Ling Yunlong had used this whip on her. Whip after whip He mercilessly whipped her until the mottled blood stained her clothes red. Only then did he stop. Yunlong, Mo Mo is still young, dont bother with her. In the future, I will ask Xiao Tian to be more careful and try to avoid Mo Mo as much as possible. Su Yu pretended to persuade Ling Yunlong, and the way she looked at Ling Mo was filled with pride. With her understanding of Ling Yunlong, he wouldnt stop until he beat Ling Mo to a pulp. Ling Tian, who had received Su Yus teachings, also tugged on Ling Yunlongs arm weakly and said to him in a low voice, Big sister only slapped me a few times, and itll be fine after the swelling goes down. Dad, please stop, I dont want you and big sister to have a fight because of me. Ling Mo watched the mother-daughter duos performance quietly. Unknowingly, she had goosebumps all over her body. It was not just acting. There was a hint of exaggeration in the pretense. However, they were convincing. They played the role of the kind and weak little white flower day after day for ten years without getting tired of it. Seeing Ling Tian shed a few tears again, Ling Yunlong could no longer control his emotions. He raised his whip and whipped Ling Mo. Master, you cant! At the critical moment, Nanny Tian rushed over and hugged Ling Yunlongs raised arm tightly. The miss skin is soft and tender, she cant take a beating. If youre angry, hit me. Ling Yunlong pushed away Nanny Tian who smelled like oil and smoke in disgust and said angrily, Get out of the way. Nanny Tian, be careful! Ling Mo saw Nanny Tian fall heavily to the ground and quickly reached out to help her up.. Chapter 37 - Turning the Tables Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Miss Tian, Im fine. Nanny Tian held her forehead, which bumped on a corner of the shoe cabinet. With Ling Mos help, she stood up with great difficulty. However, before she could stand still, the exasperated Ling Yunlong pushed her to the side again and said angrily, No one can stop me today. Those who beg for mercy on her behalf will be punished as well! As soon as he finished speaking, he waved the whip in his hand and lashed it toward Ling Mos head. Hold on. Ling Mos eyes were sharp and her hands were quick. She firmly grabbed the other end of the whip and enunciated each word clearly, Say it clearly first. What rules have I violated again? If you cant give me a reason, Ill sue you for domestic violence. Su Yu didnt mind watching the show and acted like a good wife and mother. She lectured Ling Mo earnestly, You cant accuse your father of domestic violence. Your father is doing this all for your own good. Yuer, whats the use of talking so much to this little brat? She has already beaten Xiao Tian up to this state, what else is there to say? Ling Yunlong pointed at Ling Tians swollen face, snorting. All along, he had placed great importance on nurturing Ling Tian. He was counting on her to fight for the Ling family and marry into the wealthy Liang family as soon as possible. After learning that Ling Tians face was almost disfigured because of Ling Mo, Ling Yunlong felt a lingering fear in his heart. He didnt want to delve into the right and wrong, so he just scolded Ling Mo. Ling Mo curled her lips. After figuring out the Ling Yunlongs outburst, her cold eyes suddenly fell on Ling Tian who was pretending to be weak, Ling Tian, look into my eyes and answer me. Did Wu Xinyi or I cause the wound on your face? I. . . Ling Tians eyes fluttered as she lowered her head guiltily. Seeing this, Su Yu went forward and pulled Ling Tian into her arms. She said in an unfriendly tone, Mo Mo, what kind of nonsense are you talking about? Xinyi, that child, was born into a scholarly family and has a very good relationship with Xiao Tian. How could she have attacked her? What? Didnt Ling Tian tell you in detail that she was punished by the head teacher to write 3,000 words of remorse for being involved in a fight? The corners of Ling Mos lips curled up, and her long and narrow peach blossom eyes were filled with ridicule. Su Yu was confused when she heard this. She tilted her head to look at Ling Tian, who was cowering in silence, and asked softly, Do you understand what Mo Mo is saying? I dont. Ling Tian bit her lower lip lightly and shook her head, refusing to mention her punishment. Have you forgotten what happened this morning so quickly? I still have pictures of you and Wu Xinyi slapping each other. Do you want to take a look? Ling Mo adjusted the slightly tilted phone on her chest pocket and pointed the phone at Ling Tians swollen face, showing a few close-up photos of her. Ling Tian did not expect Ling Mo to still have photos of her beating someone up. She quickly changed the topic and explained pitifully to Ling Yunlong, Dad, I didnt do it on purpose. Sister forced me to do all of this. Ling Mo snorted coldly, You used Xiong Chumos hand to instigate Wu Xinyi to surround me in the female toilet, so I cant fight back? Sister, you cant slander me. Ling Tian wiped away the mottled tears on her face. Her words sounded broken. Fine. If you insist that the wound on your face was caused by me, I dont mind giving you a few more punches. Theres no way I will take the blame for nothing. After saying that, Ling Mo let go of the thick leather whip and walked towards Ling Tian. Ling Yunlong realized that he had probably wronged Ling Mo. The whip in his hand was like a hot potato that he couldnt shake off even if he wanted to. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly turned his head and questioned Ling Tian coldly, Xiao Tian, was the wound on your face caused by Mo Mo? At that time, many people were pulling my clothes. I cant remember who hit me. Ling Tian shrunk her neck and mumbled timidly.. Chapter 38 - Sister Mo was Victorious Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Nonsense! How can you not remember such a thing? Ling Yunlongs blood pressure suddenly soared, and he almost vomited blood on the spot. Before this, he had never thought that the obedient and quiet Ling Tian would actually lie. It was also because he trusted her too much that he scolded Ling Mo in front of so many people indiscriminately, and even brought out the whip that had been sealed for many years. Dad, is my face not going to recover? It really hurts Ling Tian sensed the air that was lingering around Ling Yunlongs body. Her shoulders could not help but tremble as she wiped away her tears as she spoke. Ling Yunlong snorted coldly and threw the leather whip heavily onto the tray that Nanny Wu was holding. Her face hurt? Was his face not hurting? ! He had lashed out on the younger generation in front of the entire family. In the end, he realized that he had reprimanded the wrong person. What bad luck! The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt. He originally wanted Ling Tian to apologize to Ling Mo, but seeing that Ling Tian was crying so hard that she was out of breath, he had no choice but to give up. Seeing that Ling Yunlong was angry, Su Yu did not dare to say anything more. She quickly turned to the side and called out to Nanny Zhang in a low voice, Bring second miss down to wash her face. After she is done washing her face, help her apply the medicine again. Yes, Madam. Nanny Zhang responded quickly and supported Ling Tian as they walked towards the stairs. Wait. Ling Mo shouted sternly at Ling Tian, who was about to run away from the battle. She picked up the thick leather whip on the tray with one hand and slowly walked in front of Ling Yunlong. Her voice was cold to the bone, Dad, can you tell me what will make you use this whip? I havent even questioned who youre fooling around with yet, and youre questioning me? Ling Yunlong knew that he was in the wrong, so he only muttered a few words, and his tone was not as aggressive as before. Fooling around? Ling Mo curled her lips and smiled coldly. In your eyes, being surrounded by a group of gangsters in the alley, almost losing an arm, and almost being raped, is this still considered fooling around? What do you mean? Ling Yunlongs eyes dimmed slightly, and he vaguely sensed that there was something else going on. After school this afternoon, Ling Tians classmate, Ji Yan, paid someone to kill me. He hired a group of hooligans to block me in the alley, saying that he wanted to stand up for Ling Tian. That group of hooligans looked like they were not to be trifled with. They had tattoos on their arms and their behavior was crude. I was able to successfully escape. I must have been lucky, Ling Mo replied calmly. Is that true? Ling Yunlong looked suspiciously at Ling Mo, who was fully clothed, and did not believe her words. If Ling Mo was really surrounded by the hooligans in the alley, how could she be standing in front of him unscathed? Ive already sent the video link to your Wechat. Its up to you whether you believe it or not, Ling Mo guessed Ling Yunlongs thoughts and added indifferently. Ling Yunlong saw that Ling Mo had evidence, so he put on a hypocritical mask in the blink of an eye and said, Its good that youve returned home safely. Dont worry, Ill investigate this matter to the end. If they dare to touch my, Ling Yunlongs, daughter, Ill make them suffer. If it was before, Ling Mo would definitely be moved by his words. After seeing the true face of this family, she felt that Ling Yunlongs concern was filled with hypocrisy, making her feel extremely disgusted. Seeing that Ling Mo didnt say anything, Ling Yunlong pretended that this matter was over and said amiably, Quickly go upstairs and take a hot bath. Youll be fine after a nap. Ling Mo completely ignored Ling Yunlongs goodwill and asked him with a serious expression, Dad, can you tell me now, what will make you use the whip? The 16th rule of the Ling familys ancestral teachings is that no infighting is allowed, and no one is allowed to persecute their own brothers and sisters. Once you violate the ancestral teachings, you shall be punished according to the family law. Ling Yunlong could not dissuade Ling Mo and narrowed his eyes as he recited a short paragraph. You child, its just a misunderstanding. Why are you being so serious? Su Yu saw that Ling Mo had changed the topic again and twisted her slender waist as she moved closer to her, she pretended to be concerned and asked, By the way, you didnt suffer any losses after being surrounded by the hooligans in the alley, right? Ling Mo couldnt be bothered to be polite with Su Yu. Her sharp gaze fixed on Ling Tians frightened face and enunciated each word clearly, Answer me. Did you tell Ji Yan that I often bullied you? I didnt, Ling Tian flatly denied. If you didnt, why would he take the risk of going to jail to stand up for you? Sis, why do you always target me? Ling Tian pouted and her voice was as soft as a mosquito. I should be the one asking the questions. Ling Mo raised her eyebrows and looked at Ling Yunlong, whose eyes were darkening, Ling Tian first lied and accused me of beating her up. Then, she instigated others to hire assassins and almost harmed me. This has already violated the Ling familys ancestral teachings. Dad, what do you think we should do about this? Su Yus expression changed abruptly as she tried to mediate the situation, Sisters playing around, why involve the ancestral teachings? Moreover, Xiao Tian knew nothing about that boy hiring assassins to hurt others. Xiao Tian is kind, how could she just watch as her own sister is bullied? Ling Yunlong was tired of Ling Mo who would not let go of even the slightest mistake. He defended Ling Tian without any reservation, Yuer is right. Its perfectly normal for sisters to play around. Theres no need to go overboard. Dad, isnt that double standard? Ling Tian got into trouble, and you just described it as sisters playing around. I didnt do anything wrong, yet youre in a hurry to use the whip. What kind of logic is this? Ling Mo had long expected Ling Yunlongs reaction. When she was on the verge of losing her temper, she unhurriedly took out her phone from her breast pocket and waved it in front of Ling Yunlongs eyes, Dad, the entire country is watching. You should know what to do, right? What is this? Ling Yunlong looked at his oily face on the screen of the phone. His eyelids were twitching wildly, and he suddenly had an ominous feeling in his heart. Ling Mo smiled and explained unhurriedly, The netizens in the live stream witnessed the thrilling process of me being surrounded by gangsters after school. After I returned home, I started another live stream to report to everyone that I was safe. In the end, I was reprimanded by you and forgot about it. You! Ling Yunlong was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He wished that he could hang Ling Mo up and give her a good beating. However, because there were so many people watching the live stream, he had no choice but to temporarily suppress and swallow his anger. He glanced at the top left corner of the screen where the number of viewers had just exceeded 100,000. His gaze finally locked onto the chatbox at the bottom left corner of the screen. [ Wooo~ Scum dad has finally shown his face! ] [ Double standard dog! Why arent you mentioning the whip now? ] [ The middle-aged woman behind scumbag dad, is she the movie queen Su Yu? ] [ Its her! Its said that Su Yu is a mistress. She used a lot of underhanded methods to secure her position as the matriarch of a wealthy family. ] [ Hot searches are really not deceiving me! Su Yu is really a seductress. In order to abuse her stepdaughter, she would do anything immoral. ] [ The streamer is so pitiful! She was bullied by her pretentious sister, her movie queen stepmother, and her cheap father. ] [ Pretentious sister is so hateful. She actually instigated her male classmate to hire people to assault the streamer. ] [ Streamer, dont be afraid! The entire countrys netizens support you.. ] Chapter 39 - Liang Tian Took a Beating Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Yun Long, what did these netizens say in the live stream? Half an hour ago, Su Yu had just touched up her makeup. Now, even if there was a camera, she wasnt afraid. After saying that, she looked at the camera and posed. She had originally planned to use this opportunity to gain some fans with her beauty. Unexpectedly, among the chat messages that kept flashing on the phone screen, nine out of ten were criticizing her. How could this be? Su Yus smile stiffened slightly. She stared at the messages with her triangular eyes and muttered softly. In order to eliminate the negative public opinion, she had spent a total of two million public relations fees to remove all the dirt on the Internet. In addition, she also entrusted her former manager, Zhao Jingchun, to bribe a dozen or so influential Weibo users to upload the photos that she had captured during her charity activities over the years. Logically speaking, she had already done everything to clean up the dirt, and the abuse on the Internet should have disappeared. However, what puzzled her was that the netizens in the live stream were still chasing after her and firing shots at her. Although these comments could not cause her any real harm, it was enough for her to be depressed for a while. At this moment, Ling Yunlong also realized the seriousness of the matter and was no longer as aggressive as before. He sat back on the sofa with a frown on his face. He did not have the time to argue with Ling Mo anymore. He was only thinking about how to restore his image in the eyes of the public. Ling Tian, who was also anxious to salvage her image as a lady and socialite, saw that Ling Mo hadnt turned off her live stream. A thought flashed through her mind and she started to act on her own. Sister, are you always targeting me because I said something wrong? When that man who lied about being our uncle came to look for you in school, I was purely worried that you would be deceived by him and was in a hurry to expose him in front of everyone. If I had known that he had a close relationship with you, I wouldnt have dared to expose his fake identity even if I was beaten to death. Ling Tians eyes were full of tears, she said with a choked voice. You really have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. You accused me of slapping you, incited others to hire assassins to hurt me, and now you want to ruin my reputation? Ling Mo had long expected that Ling Tian would use Qin Beiming as an excuse. She replied unhurriedly, That gentleman came to the school in a hurry to look for me for a reason. He said that he happened to be present when the kidnappers broke into the mens washroom of Dihuang Hotel. Not only that, he also heard the kidnappers discussing the reason why the mastermind insisted on spending a large sum of money to kidnap me. If you dont believe me, you can access the surveillance cameras of Dihuang Hotel at any time to verify that the gentleman actually appeared on the day of the incident. Su Yus face turned ashen when she heard Ling Mos words. She did not even dare to breathe loudly. She had originally thought that she could move on from this matter. She did not expect Ling Mo to bring up this matter at this juncture! If this matter was exposed, she would not be able to clear her name even if she used all her assets If the matter is really as you say, then why did that man lie about being our uncle? Cant he just state his intentions openly? Ling Tian was focused on completely destroying Ling Mos reputation, she completely did not notice Su Yu looking at her. The reason why that gentleman did this should be because he was worried that a busybody like you would create trouble by making wild guesses. Ling Mos expression was calm. She maintained a calm and righteous look. Ling Tian originally thought that once she had something on Ling Mo, she would be able to crush her. She did not expect Ling Mos reaction to be so quick. She had responded with a few simple sentences and successfully resolved an almost unsolvable reputation crisis. This made her extremely annoyed. She added sarcastically, Big sister is really eloquent. You can even turn black into white. Enough! Ling Yunlong sternly stopped Ling Tian. He suddenly rushed forward and gave her a hard slap. Ah Ling Tians face was full of shock. She was so shocked by Ling Yunlongs firm slap that she could not even scream. She was half-lying on the ground and could not get up for a long time. She bent down and covered her burning cheeks. Her voice was filled with tears. Dad you actually hit me? Ling Yunlongs brows were knitted together. He looked at Ling Tians tears that flowed down like a broken thread and felt extremely uncomfortable. However, in order to restore his good social image and minimize the impact of public opinion on Ling Tian, he had no choice but to do this. A moment later, he was the first to break the strange silence in the living room. He avoided the main point and said a bunch of nonsense, Xiao Tian, I know that you are kind-hearted and would never encourage others to hurt Mo Mo. I am also willing to believe that you are only asking that strange man who pretended to be your uncle because you care about your sister. The crux of the problem is that Mo Mo was indeed surrounded by hooligans because of you. Based on this, you should apologize to her. When Su Yu heard Ling Yunlongs words, she immediately chimed in, Little Tian, quickly apologize to your sister. Ling Tian choked on her words and was extremely unwilling. However, when she saw Su Yu give her a look, she could only swallow the grievance in her stomach. She walked unwillingly to Ling Mo and said unwillingly, Im sorry. Yes, you should. After recording Ling Tians embarrassed look, Ling Mo finally turned off the live stream and walked upstairs without looking back. She knew very well that Ling Yunlong and Su Yu forced Ling Tian to apologize to her mainly to appease the anger of the netizens. They were punishing her on the surface, but they were secretly protecting her. However, Ling Mo was too lazy to care about these small details. After all, this was only the beginning.. Chapter 40 - Mysterious Medical Book Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation When Nanny Tian saw Ling Mo go upstairs, she quickly brought her the food that had been kept warm. Miss, Im sorry for what happened today. Its my fault for being useless. I cant say anything, and I cant protect you. Nanny Tian picked up the corner of her apron and wiped her red eyes. Thank you. Ling Mo didnt want to brush off her good intentions. Even though she didnt have much appetite, she still took the chopsticks from Nanny Tian and started to eat slowly. Miss, do you have anything you like to eat? Tell me and Ill cook it for you tomorrow. I vaguely remember that you were picky when you were young. You didnt eat anything that wasnt cooked by me. Ling Mos expression was calm as she replied, I dont have anything that I particularly like to eat. After I turned ten, I lost the right to be picky. Hearing this, Nanny Tian felt her heart ache. She turned around quietly and wiped away the tears and snot that were gushing out. Whats wrong? Ling Mo put down her chopsticks and looked at Nanny Tian with confusion. Nanny Tian shook her head and forced out a smile, Nothing, I just feel sorry for miss. Its true that children without a mother are like grass. If Madam was still alive, she would never allow Master to leave you alone in the countryside. Its all in the past. Noticing the wound on Nanny Tians forehead, Ling Mo took out a small white porcelain bottle from the bedside table and said slowly, Apply the ointment on the wound. Dont let it touch water for two hours. It will completely heal after a nights sleep. NannyTian took the porcelain bottle and sniffed the transparent ointment in it. She asked in surprise, Why does this ointment look so much like Madams self-made anti-scar ointment? When Madam was still alive, she saw that I was often scalded by the oil in the pot and gave me several bottles of anti-scar ointment. I still remember this smell. This is the anti-scar ointment. Ling Mo nodded gently and added, I followed the steps in the Divine Book of Ancient Medicine that you gave me. Dont worry and use it. Shh! Hearing Ling Mo mention the Divine Book of Ancient Medicine, Nanny Tian instantly became alert. She tiptoed to the door of the bedroom. After confirming that there were no eavesdroppers outside the door, she let down her guard. Ling Mo looked at the cautious Nanny Tian in confusion and asked softly, Whats wrong? After Nanny Tian closed the bedroom door tightly, she lowered her voice and explained patiently, Young miss, to be honest, the Divine Book of Ancient Medicine was actually left behind by Madam for you. That year, after Madam passed away, I was afraid that this divine book would fall into the hands of others, so I had no choice but to lie and claim that this book was my husbands familys ancestral medical book. Are you saying that my mother knows medicine? Ling Mo raised her eyebrows slightly and immediately realized that something was wrong. Logically speaking, a person who knew how to make medicine, who knew medical knowledge, and who held the Divine Book of Medicine, would definitely have a lower chance of dystocia than an ordinary person. Moreover, the Divine Book of ancient medicine clearly described in detail how to save oneself when there were all kinds of emergency situations during childbirth. If Shi Ying had studied the medical book seriously, how could such an accident happen? Could it be that there was something else going on back then? Ling Mo was speechless, but she had other thoughts in her heart. If Shi Ying did not die from an accident but from a man-made accident, even if she had to give up everything, she would crush the person who caused the accident into ashes. In the living room on the first floor. Ling Tian stared blankly at herself in the makeup mirror with a bruised and swollen face. She let Nanny Wu and Nanny Zhang take turns to apply the medicine for her. Her expression was cold and solemn. She was not as fragile as before. She did not cry or make a scene. In fact, how could a person with a heart of stone like her shed so many tears? The reason why she always pretended to be so weak was that tears could help her earn more love and care. Once tears lost their value, she was too lazy to waste her energy to do that meaningless thing. Su Yu looked at Ling Tian, who was sitting at the side with a puppet-like expression, with concern. She slowly coaxed her, Xiao Tian, mom will never let you suffer such grievances for nothing. You always say that, but you cant win against Ling Mo, Ling Tian mumbled in a low voice, her tone full of dissatisfaction. Sigh some things are not as simple as you think. Su Yu sighed in frustration, worrying about how to deal with the endless troubles. In just these two days, in order to quell negative public opinion on the internet, she had already spent a total of three million in public relations fees. It was fine as long as it had some effect. What was infuriating was that the group of unscrupulous media received money but did not do anything for her. Not only did they fail to remove negative public opinion on the internet about her, they also inexplicably dug up her old dirt, making her unable to even raise her head in the circle of noblewomen. Furthermore, Ling Tians inappropriate words and actions had already been spread through the live stream. If this matter was not settled properly, the number one socialite in Linjiang City would probably be a different person after tonight. Apart from that, the money that was drying up was also a rather thorny problem. With only a hundred thousand dollars left, what could she do? Su Yu had a headache. In order to quickly get the money, she could only cast her gaze on Ling Yunlong. At this moment, Ling Yunlong had already watched the two live stream videos that Ling Mo had forwarded to him. After thoroughly understanding the whole story, compared to Ling Tians incoherent words, he was more willing to believe Ling Mos words. However, believing was one thing, but being biased was another. Realizing that the live stream tonight would very likely damage the gentle image that Ling Tian had created in the past, he did not say anything and directly handed the matter over to the senior secretary to handle. Su Yu saw that Ling Yunlong had finished what he was doing and eagerly served the tea that she had just brewed. She asked tentatively, Yunlong, do you feel that everything you do these few days is not going well? Indeed. I dont know what is happening, but all the bad things have come together. As Ling Yunlong said this, he suddenly remembered Su Yus cousin, Lin Bao, who had been cultivating in the Han Mountain all year round. He asked, Oh right, is your cousin still in the Han Mountain recently? If he doesnt have anything urgent on hand, tell him to come over quickly and tell our familys fortune. This Su Yu seemed to be in a dilemma. She stammered for a long time before getting to the main topic, I heard that the cost of inviting a true expert who has made a name for himself is a million. Im afraid that I wont be able to invite cousin to come out. If I can really change my luck, its worth it to spend an extra million or so. Ling Yunlong answered absent-mindedly and clicked on the video of Ling Mo beating up the gangsters. Her moves seemed to be a little sophisticated, fierce and ruthless, as if she had undergone systematic training. However, for the past seven years, Ling Mo had been fooling around in the remote and desolate countryside. Most of the people she met were illiterate villagers who had no chance to interact with the outside world, so how did she learn real martial arts? Could it be that she had learned these strange moves from the bad youths in the countryside? Ling Yunlong pondered for a long time but could not come up with anything, so he gave up. When Ling Tian heard that her fraud uncle was coming, she could not help but furrow her brows. She showed obvious resistance to the idea through her body language. She vaguely remembered that when Lin Bao came to the Ling residence every now and then, there were always some blind people who insisted that they looked alike. It would have been fine if Lin Bao had a dignified appearance. But he had a shrewd face. Not only was he unsophisticated, there was also a hint of vulgarity in his eyes. Because of this, for so many years, Ling Tian had always been unwilling to be in the same room as her uncle. She would stay as far away from him as possible. It would be best if she could get rid of him completely..
