Chapter 943 The Terminator and Initiator 3

Jiang Qianqian was in a terrible mood, which was why she had invited a few friends over to the bar. Running into Xiao Qin was just a coincidence, and there was no reason beyond that for why she had treated her as a punching bag.

She really had no intention of doing anything to Xiao Qin, but Xu Wennuan’s appearance left her helpless and unable to swallow her anger. As such, when she saw Xu Wennuan trying to take Xiao Qin away with her, Jiang Qianqian spoke without any hesitation. “Stay where you are!”

As she said that, she cast a look at her friends who were sitting at the adjacent table. They had hung around Jiang Qianqian for a long time and, because she had always been generous, they complied with whatever she wanted. Jiang Qianqian didn’t even need to vocalize what she wanted; she just had to give them a look, and the entire group stood up and surrounded Xu Wennuan and Xiao Qin.

Xiao Qin leaned nervously against Xu Wennuan, who tightened her grip around Xiao Qin and stood her ground with a tranquil face. She showed no intention of speaking. When Jiang Qianqian saw that neither of them could leave now, she walked up to the two of them in her high heels, making it evident that she had been drinking.

She c.o.c.ked her jaw slightly and swept her eyes over Xiao Qin before directing her bloodthirsty gaze to Xu Wennuan. Their eyes met, but her words were meant for Xiao Qin. She said, “I’ll count to three and, if you don’t remove your dress, you can’t blame me for not playing nice!”

With that, Jiang Qianqian raised three fingers. After a small hiccup, she spat, “Three.”

There was a deliberate pause as she retracted one finger and then continued. “Two.”

When she saw how Xiao Qin remained unmoved, she looked at the girls beside her, who all looked like they were in their early 20s. Without a word spoken, two of the girls inched closer to Xiao Qin, and then Jiang Qianqian recited the final digit. “One!” she said. The moment her voice settled, the two girls reached toward Xiao Qin’s collar.

Xu Wennuan lifted her hand instinctively and swatted at the two girls. Then, she gazed sternly at Jiang Qianqian. “What exactly do you want?”

Jiang Qianqian laughed coldly. “What does that have to do with you?” Following that, she said to the group of people at her side, “Hurry up and rip her clothes off!”

Because they were all intoxicated, they were clumsy but much bolder than usual. The moment they heard Jiang Qianqian’s words, they surrounded Xiao Qin. Xu Wennuan was not stupid, though; she knew that Jiang Qianqian’s target was her, not Xiao Qin.

She suppressed the anger blooming in her chest and said to Jiang Qianqian, “If you have any grievances, I should be the person you’re attacking. Don’t drag innocent people into this!”

“Heh…” Jiang Qianqian snorted coldly, but her words were laced with an obvious intention to battle Xu Wennuan to the end. “I should attack you? Do you think you’re worthy enough for that? I want to attack her today, and what can you do about that? I’m not only intending to attack her, I’m going to rip her clothes personally!”

Jiang Qianqian grew increasingly angry as she spoke. She took two steps forward and grabbed Xiao Jin’s collar and gave it a forceful tug. When she heard the sound of ripping fabric, Xu Wennuan reached out and grabbed Jiang Qianqian’s hair with no mercy and gave it a hard yank. Jiang Qianqian suddenly released a pitiful cry, prompting Xu Wennuan to raise her hand and give Jiang Qianqian two slaps across the face.

“Jiang Qianqian, I’m warning you—Don’t go overboard!” said Xu Wennuan.

Chapter 110: Traitor

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although Lin Yan had a bad reputation and an image with no credibility, her argument was backed up by reason and facts. There wasn’t any problem with it.

Jiang Sifei’s achievements and recognition were attributed to her roles.

Furthermore, Zhao Hongling’s capability and foresight were acknowledged by people in the industry.

Jiang Sifei had denied all of Zhao Hongling’s efforts the minute she had jumped ship. She had even denied all her previous personal successes and scorned her roles for not being commercialized.

She had gone overboard.

As Jiang Sifei listened to Lin Yan, her throat became constricted and she turned pale.

Zhu Manqian had gotten too carried away by her arrogance and hadn’t thought before speaking earlier. After Lin Yan’s speech, her face fell, as she knew that things had gone awry.

Zhao Hongling had chosen all those independent films, which were too artistic. Some of these films had incurred losses and invited public denouncement. Weren’t they considered lousy productions by society standards these days?

However, it had never crossed Zhu Manqian’s mind that Lin Yan would use awards and critical acclamation to prove her point. She had even brought up the audience and the judge panel.

Lin Yan had presented an excellent argument, making the reporters start to change sides. Even Jiang Yiming nodded in agreement.

A reporter who had accepted Zhu Manqian’s red packet couldn’t help but remark, “Actually, given Jiang Sifei’s qualities, Zhu Manqian has planned her path wisely. Artists with her looks can only dream of getting minor soles for the rest of their lives. She has made it to the top in just three years. She is considered lucky!”

“Exactly! She met a far-sighted, wise manager!”

“But alas, she doesn’t appreciate her manager’s effort. Now that she is popular, she joined a major company and began to despise all her previous work!”

“Plus, she even brought her new manager to ridicule her ex-manager. Isn’t she a traitor?”

…

Duoduo, who had initially been afraid that Lin Yan would cause trouble, was thoroughly surprised that Lin Yan could speak so well.

She stood in a daze as she watched Lin Yan with mixed emotions.

On the other hand, Zhao Hongling shut her eyes and sighed deeply.

At first, she had thought that she could accept, understand and let everything go. She had never once forced anyone to stay with her.

However, after hearing Lin Yan carefully describe the roles and funding she had gotten for Jiang Sifei, she remembered how much effort and thought she had invested in her all these years and felt stinging pain in her heart.

Zhu Manqian sensed that the reporters had begun to change sides and spluttered anxiously, “Lin Yan! It was just a slip of the tongue. What I meant was that Sifei deserves more investment and a bigger platform to showcase her talent!”

“Oh… So all her previous films should be categorized as lousy films?” said Lin Yan sharply.

Zhu Manqian glared at her with a murderous gleam and said coldly, “Lin Yan, why are you trying to be righteous here? I reckon that you are the person who has been involved in the biggest number of lousy productions in this industry! For the sake of money and fame, you have shamelessly used underhanded tricks! A greedy celebrity like you must have a greedy manager! How different can Zhao Hongling be?”

Lin Yan raised her eyebrows, as she had already guessed that Zhu Manqian would attack her by using her past against her. “Manager Zhu, you did a good job trying to divert attention. However, everyone knows that I, Lin Yan, don’t listen to anyone. I do whatever I want, and my relationship with Zhao Hongling has always been hostile. Sister Ling emphasizes heavily on her principles and she wanted to uphold the terms of the contract. Hence, she has been tolerating me instead of kicking me out.

No matter how horrible I am, this doesn’t involve anyone else. Zhao Hongling is just unlucky enough to be a flower on a heap of cow dung!”

Chapter 1026: Wei Ran Return Wind (4)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

White Lemon: Wei Ran Ran Ran, have you decided to take on the manga adaptation that I mentioned to you the last time?

Just as Ming Shu made to turn off her phone, a message popped out.

W: Why are you asking me this in the middle of the night.

This was not working hours. Are editors all so dedicated?

White Lemon: … It is not easy for me to catch you online!

W: …

White Lemon: Hurry up and make a decision. The manga industry is not bad now.

W: I will consider it.

White Lemon: I will wait for your news. Don’t disappear for another half a month again. Sob.

White Lemon: Oh right, your novel End of the Road might sell its film copyright. The price that the other party gave is not high so we are still negotiating.

W: Okay. I know.

End of the Road was one of the first novels that the Host wrote. It was a detective novel.

The film copyrights that she sold most of the time were of her recent works. End of the Road might be sold because detective films were popular among the viewers recently.

Ming Shu threw her cellphone away and changed into her sleepwear.

When she lay on her bed, she had the feeling that she missed something… she ate her snacks, bathed, gained some Hatred Points. Nothing seemed to be amiss.

Let’s just sleep!

The readers that were waiting on a certain website wondered, Why didn’t the writer upload a new chapter today?

When Ming Shu woke up the next morning, she remembered that she was an author and had to publish a new chapter each day.

She ate the breakfast sent by the hotel and opened her laptop.

Her mind was blank. What should she write?

By the time Ming Shu finished her breakfast, her doc.u.ment was still blank.

I should go into the financial industry.

If not, I can go into the entertainment industry. With the Host’s face, she could earn money by being a flower vase.

Ming Shu looked at the mirror.

Perfect!

As Ming Shu was being narcissistic, Zhang Mu came over and asked her what she was doing.

Ming Shu pointed at her laptop wearily.

Zhang Mu said, “The gathering is in the afternoon. I will take my laptop over. We can work together.

Ming Shu: “…”

I was planning to change my career.

Zhang Mu took his laptop over and managed to get into the mood quickly. Ming Shu looked at his progress. She slowly looked back at her own screen.

Ming Shu pulled out the summary of the novel the Host wrote. It was very detailed. There was nothing for her to think about. She just needed to write based on the summary.

The Host’s writing style was beautiful and calm. Her readers felt very comfortable reading her novels.

Ming Shu learned the Host’s writing style. She was a little slow at the start but after she got used to it, her pace started to pick up.

Zhang Mu glanced at the lady opposite him while he was taking a break.

The lady’s fingers were slender. They flew over the keyboard without pause.

Zhang Mu remembered what happened yesterday night. He went into a daze.

She didn’t seem bothered by it…

Ding—

A message woke Zhang Mu up from his stupor. He took out his cellphone.

“Wei Lan, I have to go and pick up a friend.”

“Okay.” Ming Shu raised her head and smiled gently. “Bring back some snacks. Good people will be blessed.”

Zhang Mu: “…”

Are you not afraid of getting fat?

…

Zhang Mu hurried down the building and found the person in the main hall.

“I thought that you were not coming.” Zhang Mu gave the person a bear hug. “Have you straightened out your thoughts?”

The teenager scratched his head. He pointed to the person next to him. “Ice Lake Snow wanted to come so he dragged me along.”

Zhang Mu followed his finger. The man beside them was dressed casually. He sat properly on the sofa. One look and you knew that he was a well-mannered person.

“Guru Ice Lake Snow…” Zhang Mu greeted the man. Ice Lake Snow nodded slightly. Zhang Mu dragged the teenager to the side. “When did you become close with him?”

“I knew him all along,” the teenager said. “Didn’t I tell you before?”

“You never told me anything!”

The teenager was puzzled. “… I might have forgotten.”

Zhang Mu: “…”

How can you forget such an important thing!

Ice Lake Snow!

If they went by the terms of the entertainment industry, they were considered B-list actors while Wei Lan was an A-list actress. Ice Lake Snow was the movie king of the entertainment industry.

“h.e.l.lo, are you Ice Lake Snow?”

Two ladies appeared suddenly. Zhang Mu and the young man looked over. Zhang Mu frowned. It was Lin Yuxin again.

He didn’t know who was in the wrong yesterday, but he felt that Wei Lan was not an unreasonable person.

“Yes.” Ice Lake Snow nodded.

Meteor Rain winked at Lin Yuxin. Lin Yuxin appeared helpless. “Guru, my friend loves your books. Can you sign for my friend?”

“Today is not a signing session.”

He meant that he would not sign for her.

Meteor Rain was disappointed. However, the man’s aura was dominating so she didn’t dare to pester him.

Lin Yuxin shrugged at Meteor Rain. She had no way out, either. Meteor Rain whispered something to Lin Yuxin. Lin Yuxin seemed hesitant.

Meteor Rain pleaded with her.

Lin Yuxin had no choice but to ask, “Guru, will you partic.i.p.ate in the event today?”

Ice Lake Snow suddenly stood up and looked behind Zhang Mu and the young man.

“Everyone is here. Let’s go.”

The teenager looked back.

A young man dragged a silver luggage case over. His hairstyle was the most popular grandma-gry color and he had a pair of earphones on. His style was sort of hip-hop.

The young man was extremely pretty. He was like the rare and exquisite product of an artist. He was charming and enchanted people.

“Is that a celebrity?”

“I don’t think so. I’ve never seen him before.”

“He is so handsome.”

People in the main hall all looked at the young man. The young man smiled slightly. He glanced arrogantly at the people that were looking at him.

The young man pushed his luggage in front of himself. Ice Lake Snow caught the luggage and asked Zhang Mu, “Which floor?”

Zhang Mu replied instinctively, “21st floor.”

The young man had his hands in his pockets. When he pa.s.sed Zhang Mu, he even winked at him.

Zhang Mu: “…”

Zhang Mu grabbed the teenager. “Who is this?”

“I don’t know. I was just told to wait for someone. I have never seen this person before.” The teenager was puzzled too.

Zhang Mu lowered his voice. “Weren’t there rumors that Ice Lake Snow is gay? Could this young man be…”

The teenager looked frightened.

“Let’s hurry up and follow them.” The teenager ignored his feelings and dragged Zhang Mu into the elevator.

“Yuxin, who was that young man just now?” Meteor Rain asked Lin Yuxin.

Lin Yuxin retracted the surprise in her eyes. She shook her head. “I don’t recognize him.”

“He is so handsome…” Meteor Rain suddenly got excited. “Did you see how well Ice Lake Snow treated the young man? There are rumors that the guru is gay. Do you think that it’s true?”

Lin Yuxin frowned. “Don’t talk about things that have no basis.”

Meteor Rain said, “Ice Lake Snow is very handsome. The young man is pretty too. They look compatible with each other.”

Lin Yuxin stopped her. “Let’s go.”

Meteor Rain chased after Lin Yuxin. “Yuxin, don’t you think that guru is very handsome? He is the face of the industry…”

Chapter 775: The Prince Is Well (24)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the middle of the night…

A sneaky figure ran into the old temple. Someonce was already waiting at the dome. The other party saw someone coming in and immediately went forward.

Before the other party could say anything, the person that came exploded first. “I asked you all to a.s.sa.s.sinate Prince Six, I didn’t ask you to poison him. Are you trying to kill me?”

Song Yunjiao only heard that there was poison on the a.s.sa.s.sins’ swords after she left.

The a.s.sa.s.sin that came to meet her frowned. “We followed your orders. We didn’t put any poison on anything.”

“If you didn’t put the poison, why was that lady poisoned?” Song Yunjiao wore a shawl over her face and she lowered her voice. Her voice sounded a little deep.

The a.s.sa.s.sin said, “Are you trying to repudiate your debt?”

Song Yunjiao sneered. “Repudiate my debt? Why don’t you go and find out for yourself if I am talking nonsense or speaking the truth!”

She suddenly rejoiced a little that she didn’t go and block that attack.

If she did, the one that was dying now would be her.

The a.s.sa.s.sin saw how certain Song Yunjiao was and started to doubt himself.

The a.s.sa.s.sination today was a loss to them. A lot of his men didn’t make it back.

The a.s.sa.s.sin sent a letter and asked someone to inquire about it. This issue just happened so news about it was everywhere.

The a.s.sa.s.sin got his reply very quickly.

The a.s.sa.s.sin that caused all this was dead so they didn’t know why this happened, either.

“No matter what, you still need to pay the remaining sum to us. After all, so many of my brothers died.”

Song Yunjiao: “You still have the face to ask me for money?”

The a.s.sa.s.sin said coldly, “The information that you gave us was wrong too. You didn’t tell us that there would be so many covert guards around.”

Song Yunjiao choked.

Her understanding of Prince Six was still too little.

Prince Six just showed his crippled body to the public. He didn’t portray himself as a stupid person. Thus, it was reasonable for him to have covert guards.

The a.s.sa.s.sin said again, “Miss, we made a mistake in this order so you only need to pay half of the remaining sum to us.”

Song Yunjiao felt stifled in her heart. “You almost killed me and you still have the face to ask me for money!”

The a.s.sa.s.sin looked at her coldly.

Song Yunjiao looked at the sword in his hand and suddenly felt anxious.

These people were outlaws.

–

Song Yunjiao didn’t want to pay the money, but from the stance of the a.s.sa.s.sin, they might kill her if she didn’t pay them. She had no choice.

But…

Who wanted to harm her?

Or rather, harm Prince Six?

If no one blocked that sword for him, the one that was hurt now would be him.

Qin Wu…

Qin Wu?

She grabbed her and prevented her from going over.

It must be her!!

“The second lady is here.”

Song Yunjiao heard the voice and her heart started pounding furiously. She looked around her and tried to find a place to hide.

However, there was no one on the streets now. Before she could find a hiding spot, the people from the Song Mansion appeared in front of her.

They grabbed her and took her without saying anything.

Song Yunjiao couldn’t resist at all. She was dragged back to the Song Mansion.

Pa!

Mother Song slapped her on the face and pulled a long face as she scolded, “How dare you still run away, you b.i.t.c.h. Why don’t you look at what you are now?”

Song Yunjiao’s face stung from the pain. An iron taste spread in her mouth.

She glared fiercely at Mother Song.

“How dare you still stare at me. Lock her up in the woodshed. If she runs away again, you will all be punished.” Mother Song pointed at the servants. “Don’t give her any food. Let me see if she will still have the energy to run away.”

The servants didn’t dare to disobey Mother Song so they hurriedly dragged Song Yunjiao to the woodshed.

“I’m so angry.” Mother Song said with a sarcastic face. “Everyone is giving me trouble. Have you found the first young lady?”

“Not… yet.”

“It is already late, but she is still outside.” There was no concern on Mother Song’s face. “Go and look for her again. If not, the master will say that I am not showing her enough love.”

Mother Song only had one daughter. That was the youngest daughter of the Song family.

The oldest daughter was given birth to by Father Song’s first wife. However, she pa.s.sed away soon after giving birth.

Hence, Mother Song only symbolically asked people to look for Song Yunyan. She was not worried at all.

–

“Prince Six, this way please…”

Song Yunjiao had not eaten for an entire day. Her stomach was hurting from hunger when she suddenly heard the voice outside.

Prince Six?

Prince Six is here?

Song Yunjiao tidied her appearance instinctively.

The door of the woodshed opened and Prince Six was pushed in by someone.

“Your Highness…” Song Yunjiao’s tears fell immediately. She ran toward Prince Six but someone stopped her. “Your Highness, I…”

“Song Yunjiao, the antidote.” Prince Six interrupted her. His tone was cold and distant, just like the first time they met.

Song Yunjiao parted her dry lips. “Your Highness… what antidote?”

“You know what I mean.”

Song Yunjiao shook her head. “I don’t.”

Prince Six waved his hand at the bodyguard and brought someone inside. He threw the person in front of Song Yunjiao.

This was the a.s.sa.s.sin she hired…

Song Yunjiao’s body started shaking.

She must not admit it.

She must not admit it…

“Your Highness, who is this?” Song Yunjiao just managed to control her emotions.

There was only one last breath left in the a.s.sa.s.sin. He was forced to look up by the bodyguard.

His eyes landed on Song Yunjiao’s body and he identified her weakly. “It… it is her.”

Song Yunjiao looked at the a.s.sa.s.sin in disbelief. She was wearing a shawl and changed her voice. How could he still recognize her?

“She… she was wearing these clothes just now.”

Song Yunjiao felt as though she was struck by lightning.

She was caught by the people from the Song Mansion so she didn’t have the time to change her attire.

“Song Yunjiao, antidote.” Prince Six’s patience was almost gone.

“I… it wasn’t me. I don’t know any antidote. It wasn’t me…”

Song Yunjiao started spouting nonsense.

“a.s.sa.s.sinating a prince means a death penalty.” The bodyguard threatened her at the side. “Miss Song should hurry up and give us the antidote. His Highness will spare you on behalf of your relationship with him in the past.”

Death penalty…

She couldn’t die.

She didn’t want to kill him, either.

She just…

“It was Qin Wu…” Song Yunjiao suddenly raised her head. Her eyes were filled with hatred. “It was Qin Wu, she did it, it must be her… that day…”

Song Yunjiao admitted that she hired the a.s.sa.s.sins, but her motive was not to kill him.

It was Ming Shu who stopped her.

She must have done something.

Prince Six frowned deeply. Song Yunjiao didn’t apply the poison.

Who else could it be?

The a.s.sa.s.sins that came to kill him were all dead. This one that he caught was useless. Hence, there was nowhere they could start to investigate who placed the poison.

Is it really that woman?

“Go to Yi’an Mansion,” Prince Six said.

“Your Highness… Your Highness, I know my mistake…” Song Yunjiao looked really pitiful. “Your Highness, I just didn’t want to lose you. I don’t want to hurt you.”

Prince Six face was really cold. “Persecute her according to the crime she committed.”

“Yes…”

“Your Highness…” Song Yunjiao widened her eyes. She screamed even louder, “No, Your Highness…!”

Prince Six was shortly pushed out by someone. Song Yunjiao was left inside.

She watched as Prince Six’s wheelchair disappeared in the sunlight.

Song Yunjiao fell onto the floor without any energy left in her. Her face looked hideous as hatred and hopelessness appeared on it.

a.s.sa.s.sinating a prince…

Death penalty.

Chapter 647: Your Mum…

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Sure, I’ll fetch him from school.” Huo Yunting replied after hearing her request. It was a good opportunity to get something from her in return. “What’s my reward?”

Their relations.h.i.+p had improved recently, a fact that made him more audacious.

There was no way he would help her without getting something back.

Lu Zhaoyang noticed the cunning smile on his face and knew exactly what he meant.

She went to his side and pecked on his lips.

“There’s your reward. Thank you for your help. Xuxu likes you, I’m sure that he will be very happy to see you. I’m going back to work now.”

She took a step back and added, “When you’re back with him, I might just reward you again, depending on my mood.”

“Wonderful. I hope it’s not just a light peck like what you did. I want something deeper.”

“Mm.” She would endure this for now so that he would help her out.

Huo Yunting took a look at the time. When she was gone from his office, he stood up and got ready to leave.

This was his first time picking up a child, it made him feel strangely nervous.

Instead of asking Huo Li to drive, he drove to the school himself.

At the school, he parked his car and entered through the school gate like all the other parents.

Huo Yunting was a famous personality who frequented the headlines of economic news.

The other parents quickly realized who he was and started to gossip.

Did the president of Thunderbolt Corp have a son?

Huo Yunting ignored the judgmental, curious and scandalous glances directed at him while he studied the school grounds.

The walls were painted with murals, and they looked like they were drawn by the students.

He made his way to little Huo Xu’s cla.s.sroom and saw the boy sitting obediently at his seat.

The boy noticed him and smiled warmly. His eyes sparkled in a moment of focus and Huo Yunting found the boy to look very much like himself.

The DNA test was the only thing that convinced him that he was not the boy’s father.

“Uncle Yunting!”

The boy raised his tiny fat arm and waved at him joyfully.

The teacher in the cla.s.sroom was shocked to see that it was Huo Yunting who came to pick up the child.

Huo Xu looked very similar to the President Huo, and they shared the same family name!

The boy called him “uncle”, though.

Could he be… born out of wedlock? A nephew, perhaps?

Huo Yunting watched as the little bundle of joy skipped toward him. He bent down and took his school bag, and then scooped him up with his other hand.

“I’m fetching you today.”

“Okay, is Yangyang busy?” Huo Xu was not afraid of the change in plan. After all, Uncle Yunting was family.

“Yeah, she’s busy, but you will see her very soon.”

Huo Yunting carried him and left the school under the inquisitive eyes of the parents and teachers.

Fortunately for him, he never minded what other people thought of him.

Huo Xu did not mind, either. He stepped into the backseat of the car obediently.

“Do you feel like having anything, boy? I can get them for you.” He started the car engine and added, “We can buy something for Yangyang too.”

“Wow, alright!”

Huo Xu was thinking about what Yangyang liked to eat when something occurred to him. He looked up at Huo Yunting and asked, “What do you like to eat, uncle?”

They had spent so much time together, but Huo Xu thought he did not know his uncle well yet.

“Your mum…” He paused, knowing that the boy was too young to understand him anyway. “… has a very similar taste to mine.”

1313 Bargaining Chip.

Once the chattering subsided, the host of the conference opened his mouth. “Let’s invite the three candidates to explain their future plans for the 23rd division.”

Lan Luofeng took a deep breath and stood up. She walked up the stage slowly.

This was the first time Lan Luofeng went up on stage as the main speaker. She wasn’t following Ling Xiao up as she did in the past. However, her footsteps were firm just like in the past. She didn’t seem nervous at all.

He Xuyang finally felt at ease when he saw Lan Luofeng’s confident posture.

No one noticed that when Lan Luofeng got up, Ren Feiyu (Ling Xiao), who was wearing an indifferent expression all these while, suddenly straightened his body and glanced quickly at Lan Luofeng.

Lan Luofeng was Ling Xiao’s widow so Qiao Zhenyu and Yang Tie naturally took a step back to let Lan Luofeng speak first.

Lan Luofeng politely rejected their offer but the other two people remained firm. Thus, she nodded and went up to the center of the stage.

Lan Luofeng stood on the stage and looked at the huge number of people below her. She felt that her heart was going to jump out of her throat. She had already mentally prepared herself beforehand but when she actually faced the situation, she was still nervous.

She wouldn’t be worried if it was only for herself since she didn’t mind losing. However, she was fighting for Ling Lan. Hence, she was afraid that her mistake would affect Ling Lan’s succession of the 23rd division.

For a moment, Lan Luofeng didn’t know what to say. She remained silent.

Ling Xiao clasped his hands together tightly. This was the first time Lan Luofeng left his protection and faced the public to speak. He knew that Lan Luofeng had a strong personality. At first, he started liking Lan Luofeng because of her voice. However, as he got to know her better and understood her personality more, he fell in love with her. From then onwards, he couldn’t leave her anymore.

That year, he left his wife a little more than a month after she got pregnant. Although he had to leave because it was a command from the military, he knew Lan Luofeng would be able to pull through it with her personality. She would find a suitable way to survive without him.

Because of trust, he left her and went to the battlefield. Because of trust, he kept his vows to her for 16 years. Because of trust, he fought desperately to find a way home. Because of trust, he chose to hide his ident.i.ty and protect her secretly.

Ling Xiao released his right hand slowly and his gaze turned indifferent again. He believed his Luofeng. She would definitely pa.s.s this test with flying colors.

Lan Luofeng started speaking. Her voice was clear and stable. She wasn’t nervous even though there were so many people present.

“First, I would like to thank all the members of the 23rd division for their love for Ling Xiao. They were willing to give all their trust to his judgement that Ling Lan would be the best candidate for the position as the general of the 23rd division. They applied internally to allow Ling Lan to have this precious opportunity to become a candidate for the general’s position.”

“The war with Twilight caused me to lose Ling Xiao. At the same time, I also lost contact with Ling Lan. Hence, when he was pushed into this position, I was initially opposed to the idea. The 23rd division was built by Ling Xiao and he had gained the respect and trust of all his soldiers. It couldn’t be denied that many people labeled the 23rd division as Ling Xiao’s division. However, I would like to say that the 23rd division is the same as the other 22 divisions of the Federation. There’s nothing special or unique about it. It doesn’t belong to Ling Xiao. I, Lan Luofeng, don’t mind who becomes the general of the 23rd division. I’m sure that if Ling Xiao was still alive, he would feel the same way.”

Lan Luofeng’s speech was magnanimous. The representatives below started applauding loudly. At first, they just respected her because she was Ling Xiao’s wife. Now, they realised that she was a reasonable and selfless person. Their impression of her got better and they admired her even more.

The First Marshal frowned slightly when he heard Lan Luofeng’s speech. Lan Luofeng’s words had put him at a disadvantage. If the representatives below felt that Ling Lan and Lan Luofeng didn’t want the position of 23rd division’s general, the faction of the Second Marshal and the Third Marshal would benefit. After hearing Lan Luofeng’s speech, the Second Marshal and Third Marshal’s expressions got gentler.

The representatives from the 23rd division all had stunned expressions. This speech was entirely different from the materials they had prepared. They didn’t know what to do.

He Xuyang tapped his thighs silently. He decided to watch quietly. He believed that the lady his general loved wasn’t a stupid person. Major General Lan must have something up her sleeve.

Only Ling Xiao closed his eyes after listening to Lan Luofeng. He looked as though he didn’t care about this matter anymore but if you look closely, you would realise that there was a tiny smile on his face. He completely understood what Lan Luofeng was doing.

“However, the representatives from the 23rd division convinced me. They respected Ling Xiao. If the 23rd division was taken over by someone else right after Ling Xiao pa.s.sed away, they won’t be able to accept it. They actually feel strongly against it too. They recommended Ling Lan because he’s Ling Xiao’s son. They hoped that he could inherit Ling Xiao’s unfulfilled wish and lead the 23rd division to glory. Since Ling Lan is missing, they requested me to be his representative to solve the problem.” Lan Luofeng’s eyes were filled with tears as she continued speaking. Her voice was full of emotions. “I can’t reject their earnest request. I have my own selfish thoughts too. I want to see the 23rd division, which Ling Xiao regarded as his pride, becoming the 23rd division wished it will become.”

He Xuyang clenched his fist tightly. Without a doubt, Lan Luofeng was starting to give more bargaining chips to Ling Lan. She pointed out the att.i.tude of the soldiers in the 23rd division so that the representatives below knew how much they would reject the arrival of a new general. If they didn’t do it right, the new general might be just a mindless puppet. The only way the military could change the general to whoever they wanted was to sweep away all the main officers of the 23rd division.

But, this would shake the hearts of all the soldiers in the 23rd division. If the anger of the soldiers was ignited, it might affect the other divisions too. Thus, unless there was no other way, the military wouldn’t touch the 23rd division so soon after Ling Xiao’s death.

But, Lan Luofeng’s actions pushed the higher authorities of the 23rd division out. These people would be blacklisted by the military and their path in the future would be heavily affected. They might have a hard time rising in rank.

Many representatives from the 23rd division had an unhappy look on their faces.

‘Since they wanted to use Young Master Lan and mistress, they must be prepared to pay the price.’ He Xuyang smiled lightly. Not everyone wanted to protect the 23rd division sincerely like him. Some people respected Ling Xiao but as the saying goes, the tea cools down when the person is gone. Without a powerful person suppressing the majority of the people, some of them would turn greedy. However, everyone had the same thing. In that case, he would make use of them too. Once everything had settled down, he would slowly count the debt.

Chapter 1198: Morning Sickness

Jun Xiqing looked at him with a smile. Then she lowered her voice and spoke to him soft enough that only the two of them could hear, “West Duke, do you know your true ident.i.ty?”

Lu Yeming laughed softly. “I’m intrigued. Go on.”

“Twenty years ago, when Madam Xuanji was pregnant, she was forced to take an abortion pill. In the end, she even had a caesarean to remove her child. After that, her child wasn’t able to speak at all and was on the verge of death. He died the moment he left Madam Xuanji’s arms.

“The bonds between the two of them really run deep. He held out for ten months before finally dying in his mother’s arms just after he was born.

“Lu Jinwen was always a cold person who didn’t know how to love and has only loved one person with all his heart in his entire life, Madam Xuanji. As of when he made his move, how he did it and how you exist, I don’t know, but what I know is that the two of you make a better father-son pair than fathers and sons actually connected by blood. You two fakes have already played this act to perfection, deceiving everyone and lessening any hurt you bring to others. The two of you also managed to keep protecting the women you treasure in your heart.

“Even up till this day, I tremble when I see your father’s signature. Monk Xuanyi once said that your father has killed too many in this lifetime and as a result his life was not going to end well. Those words eventually came true. He killed his own son, and didn’t even have a last look at Madam Xuanji before she died. In the end, he could only shed tears of blood, dying red the icy-cold bed she was on as he took his last breath. But now I finally understand… his pain.

“As for you West Duke, that’s the mystery Lu Jinwen left behind. When did you discover your heritage? It’s been a few years since then. With your abilities, there’s no way you haven’t discovered at least a hint of where you’re from… Whose blood are you, who is your father, where is your family? How is it possible you know nothing about it?

“But you haven’t made a move at all. You changed your name to Lu Yeming. It seems like you have the intention to pa.s.s it on to the future generations. I’ve never once thought that you were someone with emotions. All these years, you haven’t basked in the glory that came with the Lu name at all, so what’s making you so attached to it? Or…”

Jun Xiqing pulled her hands back harshly. Her slim fingers pointed to his heart and jabbed him hard. “Or are you telling me, the thing you’re attached to is the person who has been beside you, growing up with you for the past twenty years, the only person who has shown you warmth? The reason you want to keep this surname Lu forever, so you can be as close to her as possible and keep basking in the love and adoration she has for her little brother.

“So what I’m saying is, Old Master Lu and Lu Jinwen weren’t enough to move your heart. You could bear with the loneliness and deal with the wealth. I’m sure even the current glorious road to being the emperor that you’re on is nothing compared to the person in your heart.”

It has been said that men in love were always the most charismatic, so Lu Yeming was emanating a sort of indescribable charm right now. Lu Yeming’s deep eyes were like two whirlpools, capable of devouring a person’s soul whole.

In the end he raised his hands and pinched her chin. “Jun Xiqing, I really… am starting to like you more and more.”

“I’m honored.” Jun Xiqing raised one graceful eyebrow and said, “Since you’ve imprisoned me in the West Palace, I have all the time in the world to unravel..all the mysteries surrounding you.”

Lu Yeming walked forward, his tall and graceful body pressing on her. “If you’re going to unravel all the mysteries surrounding me, why not just… undress me here?” He spoke in a low voice, seductive and flirtatious.

“West Duke, I’ve been gone for a long time. Elder Sister Mo’er will worry if she can’t find me!”

She emphasized the words ‘Elder Sister Mo’er’.

Lu Yeming was expressionless, but he released her silently and put one hand in his pocket. He said elegantly, “You’ll do well to watch what you say. G.o.d forbid you say the wrong thing.”

“Don’t worry. I see Elder Sister Mo’er as my biological sister. I will never do anything to harm her.”

Hearing this, Lu Yeming laughed apathetically.

Jun Xiqing looked at him. She knew he didn’t trust her and looked down on her. He would protect his sister his whole life. He didn’t need anyone else.

“I’ll watch my words, but make sure you watch your lower half. Afterall, love and l.u.s.t can lower one’s defenses.”

With that, Jun Xiqing left.

…

Jun Xiqing had left and the study was quiet once again. Lu Yeming strode over to the study table and lowered his eyes to look at the DNA test report.

He raised his hands and stroked the words ‘Lu Jinwen’…

…

Jun Xiqing went back to the room. Tang Mo’er was lying on the bed, fast asleep.

It was already nighttime. Tang Mo’er had been sleeping since the afternoon.

“Elder Sister Mo’er, you should wake up.” Jun Xiqing walked forward and woke Tang Mo’er gently.

Tang Mo’er’s luscious lashes quivered as she slowly opened her eyes.

“It’s you, Qingqing.”

Tang Mo’er sat up. Her beautiful eyes were still sleepy as she stretched.

She was so sleepy lately.

Was it due to the AR weakening her body, making her feel as though she had no energy at all?

“Elder Sister Mo’er, you’re about to become a lazy kitty. I’ve already calculated. For the past two days, you’ve been sleeping 20 out of 24 hours.”

Really?

How ridiculous! Wasn’t she practically disabled then?

At this moment, someone knocked on the door. A maid’s voice floated in from the outside. “Elder Miss, Miss Jun, dinner is served.”

“Alright,” Tang Mo’er replied and pulled the blankets off herself. “Qingqing, I’m going to wash up first. Let’s go down to dinner after that. I’m hungry.”

“Alright.”

Tang Mo’er stood at the sink brus.h.i.+ng her teeth. As she squeezed the toothpaste out, she suddenly felt nauseous.

She wanted to throw up.

She quickly bent down and pressed her hands over her chest, forcefully swallowing the rising wave of nausea.

What was happening to her?

Was this the effect of AR?

Her body was deteriorating day by day.

Tang Mo’er stood up straight and looked at herself in the mirror. Her red lips curved upwards as she smiled lightly at herself.

It was precisely because she didn’t have much time left that she treasured time she had left even more. She was grateful for every day that she was still alive.

…

Tang Mo’er held Jun Xiqing’s hand as they went downstairs. Lu Yeming was already in the dining room.

He sat in the master seat. Fan Men was bent over and reporting to him in a low voice. He was listening to him with his eyes lowered. The yellow light in the dining room illuminated him, making him seem even more handsome and magnificent.

Seeing them approach, Fan Men stood back.

Tang Mo’er and Jun Xiqing sat on both sides of Lu Yeming.

Chapter 415: What If I Told Fu Qinglun That His Wife Had Her Hymen Filled Before

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Grandpa had a plan?

Lin Ruoxi turned suspicious. What plan did Grandpa have to make Fu Qinglun let the Lin family off?

…

Madam Lin held a thermal flask and walked into the hospital. At this moment, her phone cell phone rang.

Her facial expression changed upon seeing the caller ID. Picking up the phone, she greeted, “h.e.l.lo Old Master Lin.”

“Look what your daughter has done, she almost wrecked the entire Lin family. Ask Lin s.h.i.+yu to tell Fu Qinglun to let the Lin family off!” Old Master Lin said in a very unfriendly tone.

“Old Master Lin, I can’t promise you this. It was Lin Ruoxi who caused my daughter to miscarriage…”

“Enough!” Old Master Lin reprimanded. “Isn’t it just a child that is lost? What’s the big deal? If you don’t listen to what I say then I’ll tell Fu Qinglun that secret. I’ll tell him that his wife underwent surgery to fill her hymen, that she was raped a long time ago. Do you think Fu Qinglun will want your daughter then?”

Madam Lin tensed up and started trembling. She thought of what had happened a long time ago.

Lin s.h.i.+yu was only six when the Lin family had driven out both mother and daughter. As she was sick and weak, she had neglected s.h.i.+yu.

One day, s.h.i.+yu had ran out. Upon realizing she went missing, Madam Lin went to search for her in a frenzy. When her daughter had finally come home, it broke her heart to see that her daughter with blood on her skirt and thighs.

She knew s.h.i.+yu had been raped. How could someone do such a nasty thing to her?

That incident changed s.h.i.+yu completely. From a cheerful, happy child, she turned into one that was quiet and autistic. She had nightmares every night and always held her mother.

Mommy, it hurts. It hurts so much I want to die.

The death-like pain made her go crazy.

At this moment, Old Master Lin came to find them and provided them with a lot of help. Firstly, he arranged for s.h.i.+yu to see a psychiatrist to help her forget the painful incident. Thereafter, he arranged for a doctor to fill her hymen to return her back to normal.

However, her mother knew that she suffered a lot of trauma after the incident. Even after receiving treatment, s.h.i.+yu’s personality became colder and colder each day. She looked down on the opposite s.e.x and did not dare to mix with males.

Each time she saw s.h.i.+yu, she felt like crying.

However, it made her happy when s.h.i.+yu was married. Although s.h.i.+yu was reluctant, she was still able to lead a relatively good life. Putting aside Fu Qinglun’s good characteristics, at the very least they had a baby. However, s.h.i.+yu had suffered a miscarriage.

The doctor even said that she would experience habitual miscarriage thereafter.

She was the only person who knew about what had happened in the past because the extent of damage the rapist exerted on her daughter was too extreme.

Now s.h.i.+yu was crying in her arms again.

Mommy, it hurts so much. It’s so painful…

Everything seemed to have returned to that dark time once again. Days were so dark it seemed the end of the world for both mother and daughter.

She hated herself so much. She was a failure as a mother, failing to take care of her beloved daughter. She hated the rapist so much. If she knew who it was, she would definitely kill that person!

She succ.u.mbed to the threat as she did not want Fu Qinglun or the Fu family to know about this. If they knew, she could not imagine what the consequences would be.

As it concerned her daughter’s reputation, she needed to hide it from the world.

She would protect her daughter.

“Alright Old Master, I promise you that I will talk to s.h.i.+yu. However, this be the last time. I don’t wish for Lin Ruoxi or any other person from the Lin family to harm my daughter anymore. If not, Mark my words, I’ll drag you all down to h.e.l.l with me!”

…

In the ward.

Madam Lin opened the thermal flask and took out the soup to cool.

“s.h.i.+’s.h.i.+, did Qinglun take actions against the Lin family? Tell Qinglun later to let off the Lin family.”

Lin s.h.i.+yu glanced up at her mother, confused. “Mom, tell me why you’re telling me to forgive Lin Ruoxi and let the Lin family off?”

Madam Lim avoided her gaze and said persistently, “s.h.i.+’s.h.i.+, no matter what, you still belong to the Lins. That is your grandpa, your father, your loved ones, please don’t let Qinglun ruin them.”

“Mom, those are not our loved ones, I was chased out a long time ago. When you were sick in the hospital, no one took care of you. When I had no money to attend school, where were they? They never had the slightest intention to look after us. Now that Lu Qi’er and Lin Ruoxi are fighting, it’s their problem they triggered Fu Qinglun. Let’s not bother about this and let them die.”

It was obvious that Lin s.h.i.+yu lacked the slightest affection for the Lin family.

She wanted to get back at those who had harmed her!

Seeing her firm att.i.tude, Madam Lin panicked. “s.h.i.+’s.h.i.+, now that you’re older and more mature, are my words falling on deaf ears?”

Seeing her mother’s eyes turn red, Lin s.h.i.+yu’s pupils contracted. She immediately stretched out her hands and hugged her mother’s waist.

“Mom, don’t be angry, I’ll listen to you. I’ll tell Fu Qinglun to let the Lin family off later.”

Now that her mother had heart disease and was in poor health, she could not take any setbacks. Her mother was her only loved one in the world. She loved her mother a lot.

Seeing that her daughter had compromised, Madam Lin cried. She looked down and raked her fingers through her daughter’s hair. “s.h.i.+’s.h.i.+, isn’t mom especially useless? I can’t protect you. For all these years, you’ve suffered so much with me.”

Back then, when Lin s.h.i.+yu’s father was involved in extramarital affairs outside and Lin Ruoxi was the eldest daughter of the family at that time. As such, under grandpa’s approval to the divorce, Lin s.h.i.+yu’s father had divorced her really quickly.

The Lin family had chased her out. Back then, Lin s.h.i.+yu was still very young. The Lin family wanted to keep Lin s.h.i.+yu as she was after all, a little beauty. The more beautiful their daughter was, the more worthy their family would seem as they could marry her off to another wealthy family for greater business benefits and glory.

However, Lin s.h.i.+yu did not stay in the Lin family. She left with her mother, and the two of them only had each other to depend on.

However, her mother did not protect her well.

Each time s.h.i.+yu had to go to the Lin family to ask for money, she would be humiliated by Lin Ruoxi’s mother.

When she grew older and made her own money, she never went back to the Lin family to ask for money anymore. s.h.i.+yu worked hard to earn money to feed herself and pay for her mother’s medical expenses. It has been extremely hard on her.

Since she was a child, s.h.i.+yu never had the chance to receive any form of fatherly love or family warmth. She owed s.h.i.+yu too much.

Lin s.h.i.+yu’s eyes turned red too. However, she quirked the corner of her lips and smiled blissfully. She sniffed the fragrance of her mother’s body and hugged her mom, feeling as if she was the happiest person on this earth.

Chapter 135: Han Xiaowan, You’re Done for (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Tang Mo’er didn’t avoid Han Xiaowan’s attack, she allowed Han Xiaowan to strangle her and took the chance to whisper softly in her ear, “Han Xiaowan, you’re right, I asked Gu Mohan to get rid of you and I know Su Zhe has abandoned you. In the end, you’ve lost, you are defeated by me!”

Han Xiaowan’s beautiful face twisted into a wild expression of rage. She was about to go crazy from jealousy, especially when she was reminded that the two perfect men, Gu Mohan and Su Zhe, were mesmerized and hooked in by that evil b*tch, Tang Mo’er.

“Tang Mo’er, if I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have chosen to jump in the pool and accuse you of pus.h.i.+ng me down when we were young. I should have just pushed you into the water and let you drown instead. What are you anyway? You’re only an unwanted child, no one would have cared even if you died that day!”

She finally exposed the truth about what she thought.

Tang Mo’er shoved Han Xiaowan away forcefully, “Han Xiaowan, say what you want. Deep down, even you know that you were born to be a clown with me as the princess. No matter how hard you try, no matter how much you covet everything that belongs to me, you are nothing, and will end up with nothing. Su Zhe was my fiancé and you always had your eyes set on his wealth and status. That explains why you drugged me three years ago and flew over to Las Vegas to seduce him. What are you going to do now, Su Zhe has chosen to abandon you!”

“Shut up, Tang Mo’er, shut your mouth!” Han Xiaowan was completely triggered and she broke out ferociously, “What did you do to deserve all the attention? Why would I be destined to remain as your pathetic sidekick? You are right. I was, and will always s.n.a.t.c.h everything away from you. I drugged you three years ago, I wanted to separate you and Su Zhe. Su Zhe is the young master of the Su family and I am determined to become the young madam of the Su family. So what? You actually think that you’ve won? The answer is still no. I am pregnant with his baby and he will never abandon us!”

Han Xiaowan looked at Han Xiaowan’s stomach in sympathy, “It seems like this innocent baby will be used as your bargaining chip.”

“Ha,” Han Xiaowan let out an eerie laugh, “Tang Mo’er, how do you think Su Zhe and the netizens will react when they find out that you tried to make me miscarriage?”

“What are you talking about?”

Han Xiaowan then hit herself with two loud slaps, then staggered and collapsed onto the floor as she hugged her own stomach while wailing pitifully, “Is anyone there? Please… is anyone there? Help! Someone is trying to kill a pregnant woman!”

Seeing Han Xiaowan performing with such pa.s.sion and excellence, Tang Mo’er couldn’t help but smirk, she almost wanted to give her a round of applause. “You’re trying to set me up again, just like the other time when you fell down the stairs on your own?”

Han Xiaowan had already forced out some pitiful tears as she gave Tang Mo’er a creepy smile. “Since the strategy works so well, why not?”

Tang Mo’er nodded her head out of pity, “The public won’t be fooled by you forever, they will eventually discover your true colors, Han Xiaowan, you’re done for!”

Han Xiaowan was stunned, what was Tang Mo’er was implying?

Before she had time to think, a group of people walked out from where they were hidden. Qi Xi was holding on to a laptop as they had been streaming the entire scene live. Qi Xi zoomed in to the scene to focus on Han Xiaowan’s face. “Han Xiaowan, look carefully, your ugly side has been exposed!”

Han Xiaowan gasped, her tiny face went pale and her eyes were wide in shock and sudden realization. Tang Mo’er had set her up! Her disgusting and ferocious behavior had been exposed in the live-stream. Not only that, she had admitted to all her wrong-doings in the past. She was done for, truly done for!

“No, this isn’t real, it’s Tang Mo’er’s evil plans. She planned it all. It was all her! Tang Mo’er, you are truly wicked, I’m going to fight it out with you!” Han Xiaowan got up from the ground and ran towards Tang Mo’er with her arms out and expression wild.

Tang Mo’er avoided her and stood safely out of the way. Han Xiaowan was pregnant, she didn’t want to hurt Han Xiaowan and taint her own hands with fresh blood, especially one that was completely innocent.

The bodyguards had stepped in and held back Han Xiaowan, ready to detain her, but someone rushed in and gave Han Xiaowan two tight slaps on the face

On the contrary, the way Murong Qingyan looked was… to put it mildly, inferior. Her blue clothes were worn out; long, pitch-black hair was simply tied with a lace, her originally pretty facial features were ruined due to the huge purple birthmark, all in all giving off a particularly strange vibe.

The contrast between the two was remarkably sharp: one was like floating on air immortal fairy, the other was as ugly as only a demon could be.

However, people couldn’t help but be surprised. Compared to Murong Qingxue, Murong Qingyan’s imposing manner was even more forceful. Although spectators’ eyes first fell onto Murong Qingxue, then they were inescapably attracted to Murong Qingyan.

Obviously, she didn’t have any strength, undoubtedly ugly, but people just couldn’t ignore her existence.

“Elder sister, you still have a chance to turn back,” Murong Qingxue opened her mouth looking at Murong Qingyan with superficial concern. “In the ring, a fist has no eyes. If the time comes when elder sister gets hurt, I won’t feel good.”

“Murong Qingxue, are you pretending even here? How annoying, ah,” Murong Qingyan knitted her eyebrows, looking at the hypocritical act of Murong Qingxue. “If you don’t want to fight, then go, get lost.”

Hearing this remark, Murong Qingxue’s complexion immediately became very unsightly. People on the stands, because of those words, also flared up.

“Heavens, I’ve never seen such a shameless person before! Miss Murong Qingxue is obviously worried about her elder sister, but even then she unexpectedly goes so far as to speak in such a conceited manner.”

“Hahaha! This Murong Qingyan is actually too ignorant. She is nothing more than a waste who cannot even condense Xuan Li, but surprisingly tells Miss Murong Qingxue to admit defeat.”

“Miss Qingxue, fighting! You must give a good lesson to Murong Qingyan, this ugly freak! Such a person only stains people’s eyes!”

More and more of nasty words rained down, but they didn’t affect the person in question.

Murong Qingxue’s lips naturally rose into an appropriate smile, she involuntarily looked at Murong Qingyan, seizing her up, as if she had never met such Murong Qingyan before, but no matter what, she would be the one to win this match. Murong Qingyan could only become her stepping stone.

The corners of her mouth curved slightly higher, with a smile never leaving her face she extended her hand, saying: “Since elder sister is unwilling to appreciate to my painstaking efforts, then don’t blame me, this younger sister of yours. But, elder sister, feel at ease, later I surely will be going easy on you.”

Right. Indeed she would show Murong Qingyan mercy: she would not take her life. Yet, she wanted Murong Qingyan to become a complete waste, she wanted her to lead a life worse than death.

While Murong Qingxue was speaking, ruthlessness flashed within her eyes.

“You don’t have to show me mercy,” Murong Qingyan’s mouth hooked in a touch of a sneer. “Because I will not show you mercy either. Since we are already standing on this ring, there’s no need for an insincere courtesy here.”

“I also advise you not to speak too much nonsense, lest you put yourself even in uglier position later.”

Murong Qingxue’s face stiffened, but quickly returned to her usual elegance: “This being the case, asking elder sister to give me some pointers.”

On the stands, Murong Xiong’s complexion turned utterly hideous as he watched happenings in the arena. At this moment he so wished he could directly cut off relations with Murong Qingyan. But, unfortunately, now he couldn’t act rashly. However, he decided that once Murong Qingyan lost, he would punish this unfilial child who couldn’t tell good from bad harshly.

Chapter 347: Chapter 347: A Little Struggle 6

Author: Joe Mai MACHINE TRANSLATION

Mu Ru continued to wear that sincere smile on her face, but it did not reach her eyes.

Just as the man’s hand touched the edge of her pants, when the man’s body was close to her lower abdomen, her hand was already in the pocket of her clothes.

She found the b.u.t.ton in the darkness and pressed it without hesitation. The Swiss army knife came out with a ‘Chi’ sound and went straight to the man’s lower abdomen that was tightly pressed, and then stabbed deeply into it… …

The smug smile on the man’s face changed almost instantly. The hand that was originally going to take off Mu Ru’s pants also stopped abruptly. He looked at Mu ru with an incredulous gaze, and then… …

He stood there motionless …

After half a minute, the man began to slowly step back and lower his head. With the help of the weak light here, he saw that his abdomen was continuously gus.h.i.+ng out a black-colored liquid… …

Sticky, with a fishy smell… … This is… … His blood ? ?

The man’s dark red eyes, which were filled with some kind of filthy excitement, were instantly filled with fear and disbelief.

He looked at the clothes that were slowly stained with blood, as well as the blood that was slowly dripping down the hilt of the knife… …

Xi Muru took her hand out of her pocket and forcefully pushed the man in front of her. Then, she swiftly pulled out the Swiss army knife that was praised by the peddler as very sharp from the man’s abdomen.

Their bodies were finally completely separated, but blood continued to drip from the blade… …

Xi Muru’s fingers moved slightly. She wiped the blood-stained blade on the man’s clothes before lowering the blade to put it away. She looked at the man who was already sweating from the pain and squatting on the ground She frowned and asked plainly,

“Do you have a cell phone? Do you want me to call 110 or 120? ”

Mu Ru had no intention of escaping. Moreover, there was no need to escape in this situation. Moreover, she was very rational and calm, giving the man two choices.

Of course, her intention was very obvious. When 110 arrived, she would explain the situation to the police clearly. She believed that her actions were self-defense.

However, if the man did not want to alert the police and chose to call 120, then there was nothing for her to do. She could just leave.

When the man heard Mu Ru’s words, he stared at Mu Ru’s calm face with a pair of shocked eyes.

He could not believe that he would lose to such a seemingly weak little girl in one move.

Mu Ru’s cold gaze swept across the disgusting middle-aged man in front of her. She was very sorry. Although she was a little gray rabbit that was often bullied, even a little rabbit would bite people when it was provoked But today, she had bitten someone.

In the past, she was indeed forced by her family to go to school. In order to have a place to shelter herself from the wind and rain, she had been living the life of a little rabbit that was at the mercy of others.

However, as long as she was given a chance, she could prove to the world that she had never been a real little rabbit. She could also become a cat with sharp claws.

She could not help but think of Dongfang Mo, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

In front of that man, she could only be a gentle little gray rabbit because she did not want to put Zheng Yifan in a disadvantageous position. Zheng Yifan was the only man in the world who loved her.

Chapter 534 Different Schemes in the Teahouse

The carriage stopped in front of the Literature Recourse Inst.i.tution. Most people who wanted to see the Imperial Examination Ranking would wait here as this place offered amazing tea and liquor. It was still early when they arrived. Since it didn’t make sense to wait inside the carriage, they exited the carriage with their maids and entered a nearby teahouse. They wanted to go upstairs and request a private room directly opposite where the ranking would be announced.

They had just entered the teahouse when they heard a voice from behind. “Fifth Sister.”

Ning Xueyan stopped walking and turned around. She saw a surprised-looking Ning Qingshan standing beside a carriage with Caifen. She was surprised that Ning Qingshan would come so early. She noticed that there weren’t many carriages on their way here, and Ning Qingshan’s carriage had been stopped before they got here. It seemed that Ning Qingshan had been waiting here a long time ago.

“You’re here too, Third Sister. What a coincidence.” Ning Xueyan smiled, stopping in place to wait for Ning Qingshan to approach. Since Ning Qingshan had deliberately waited for her here, she would naturally walk with her.

When Ning Qingshan came close, she introduced her to Commandery Princess Xianyun. She didn’t know if they already knew each other, but Ning Qingshan hadn’t had a chance to meet the Princess after returning to the capital. The Princess didn’t show up at the palace banquet the last time; so she must have other business to attend to and didn’t come. The two of them exchanged greetings gently, looking like perfectly well-mannered young ladies. Then, they went upstairs together.

A maid went ahead to request a private room. When they entered the room, they saw that they could see the list from their window, as expected. It was fortunate that they came early, for they were able to book such a nice place.

“What an amazing coincidence. I was still wondering if I should exit the carriage when your carriage arrived at just the right time,” Ning Qingshan said, smiling. Her words easily concealed the fact that the carriage from the Lord Protector’s Manor had arrived ahead of the carriage from Prince Yi’s Manor.

A cold glint flashed in Ning Xueyan’s eyes. Ning Qingshan had always been the cautious sort, who left nothing up to chance. Her words suggested that she had arrived early, but didn’t get off the carriage. Ning Qingshan easily hid the slipup that she only left the carriage because Ning Xueyan had arrived.

“It’s indeed a coincidence to meet Miss Qingshan here. We met briefly in the palace three years ago, didn’t we? You stayed in Honored Consort Ya’s palace then and received much of her favor. I thought that you were fated with the Third Prince, and I was indeed proven right three years later. Your fate with the Third Prince is still the same after three years.”

Commandery Princess Xianyun’s compliment made Ning Qingshan blush. She lowered her head, looking abashed.

“It’s not as wonderful as you suggest, Princess.”

“You must be kidding. It’s rare for anyone to rival the Third Prince’s feelings for you. Three years later, you were nearly made the Third Princess. It’s evident that he has never changed his feelings for you.” The Princess looked envious.

It was indeed enviable to receive such affection from a man, especially from a prince. No matter how she looked at it, Ning Qingshan was still quite pleased with such an arrangement. Of course, this was putting aside the fact that she had lost her original position of the princess.

Commandery Princess Xianyun had long found out that Honored Consort Ya and the Third Prince initially wanted Ning Qingshan as the Third Princess, but an accident happened during the selection process and Ning Qingshan ended up embarra.s.sing herself in front of everyone. And Ning Xueyan was involved in this accident. Although they couldn’t find out anything concerning her, there was no doubt that Ning Xueyan was part of the reason.

This was enough for her!

The change of status from a princess to a consort wasn’t just a matter of t.i.tle difference.

The Princess’ words were a stab in Ning Qingshan’s heart. She had indeed fallen for Ning Xueyan’s trap at that time. Otherwise, Ning Xueyan wouldn’t have escaped the trap meant for her while the mastermind got into trouble instead. She would even say that she had not only humiliated and hurt herself, but also lost the position of princess destined for her. How could she not feel resentful?

A trace of jealousy flitted across her pupils, but she maintained a shy smile on her face. She wouldn’t count this against her for now. Attempting to settle things with a despicable person like her would just make her look bad.

“You’re too polite, Princess. Whose name are you hoping to see in the ranking today?” Ning Qingshan smiled, feigning bashfulness as she changed the topic.

“A younger cousin of mine has taken the examination as well. I’m worried, so I came here to check the ranking with Sister Ning.” The Princess smiled with an easygoing expression. She even deliberately looked out of the window as if she was really anxious for her family member.

Of course, she had to put on a flawless act, for she had used this excuse to request a leave of absence from the prince. She didn’t know if he would let her leave otherwise. After all, other than the time when he walked around her courtyard on the second day after their wedding, he never visited her again.

Yet, he had visited Ning Xueyan at the Pear Flower Garden several times. Although he didn’t like his consort all that much either, Ning Xueyan still received a much better treatment compared to the rightful princess.

Naturally, she had to be prepared for certain matters. She was confident that it was only a matter of time before her means and talents would slowly win Ao Chenyi over. The only reason why Ao Chenyi disliked her was that she had proclaimed her love for him in front of the Empress, forcing him to marry her. He felt so disrespected and humiliated that he chose to ignore her.

She had already been ignored on his wedding night. And later, she was foiled in her attempt to manage his harem.

That only happened because she was new to the manor and didn’t understand the situation inside. She would slowly change the prince’s opinion of her. She would let him know that she was the one who suits him the most and that whether from a talent or appearance aspect, she was far better than the sickly Ning Xueyan.

“I’m very anxious myself, Princess. I have no idea how my elder brother did in the examination. Our family has already prepared an ancestral ceremony for him. We’ll continue with the ceremony whether or not he makes it, but I hope he’ll make the ranking this time. At least, he’ll be able to bring glory to our ancestors.” Ning Qingshan sighed. Her expression made it difficult for others to distinguish whether it was lamentation or sadness.

Ning Huaiyuan could have skipped the examination if he were the heir to the Lord Protector’s Manor, but he never officially bore the t.i.tle despite being recognized as such. After such a fiasco in the Lord Protector’s Manor, it was all the more important for him to take the examination. Although Ning Qingshan said little, her sad expression was enough to express her meaning.

Madam Ling’s incident forced Ning Huaiyuan to start with the preliminary imperial examination. Once again, Ning Xueyan had an unmistakable responsibility for this.

The Princess was pleased that Ning Qingshan understood this. The enemy of an enemy was a friend, after all. She hadn’t forgotten that Ning Qingshan was fostered under Madam Ling. With a mother like her, Ning Qingshan would be hard-pressed to be the Third Princess even if she was given such an opportunity.

The Princess had been observing Ning Qingshan for three years. She couldn’t help but be curious as to how an adopted daughter from the Lord Protector’s Manor won the favor of Honored Consort Ya, so much so that the consort intended to have the Third Prince marry her. How could an adopted daughter be more favored than a biological daughter, and be more famous as well?

Ning Qingshan’s move to enter the nunnery at the height of her fame was a masterful one that successfully pushed her reputation to the peak. Even Commandery Princess Xianyun’s reputation fell short of hers at that time. Someone like her wouldn’t be a pushover, so the Princess was more than happy to join hands with her.

The two of them could work together to suppress Ning Xueyan at a time of her need.

Ning Xueyan had been sitting in silence all this while, listening to them getting on with each other. Her expression was gentle and una.s.suming. Suddenly, her well-shaped brows knitted into a frown and she bent her body ever so slightly.

“Master, what’s wrong?” Xinmei, who had been watching her all along, immediately reached out to support her arm. She was so panicked that she accidentally knocked over Ning Xueyan’s cup on the table. Fortunately, the tea spilled on the other side and didn’t wet her clothes.

The commotion alarmed the Princess and Ning Qingshan as well.

“Sister Ning, what’s wrong?”

“Fifth Sister, are you feeling unwell?” The two of them immediately expressed their concern.

“I’m… I’m feeling dizzy… I’ll be fine in a while.” Ning Xueyan leaned against Xinmei’s embrace. It was obvious from her expression that she was unwell. Her eyes were partially closed and the corners of her mouth were pale.

“Master, this won’t do. You’re about to faint. I won’t be able to explain to His Highness if you faint. Let’s go back to the manor and have the physician examine you,” Xinmei said, panicked. She got ready to help Ning Xueyan stand up.

Everyone had learned about Ning Xueyan’s illness since the day of her wedding. Ning Qingshan was somewhat skeptical, but the Princess already believed her. She knew that if Ning Xueyan were to return to the manor because of her illness, she would be forced to return as well. She had only just met Ning Qingshan and started a friendly conversation with her. If she were to leave now, she would be giving up on a rare opportunity.

“Take a break here before you go, Sister Ning. The ranking will be released soon.” She tried to persuade Ning Xueyan in a soft voice.

“Fifth Sister, it won’t take long. We’ll be returning to the manor soon as well. Let’s have the physician there examine you. Grandmother has been missing you. You have no idea how sad she’ll get if you don’t go back.” Ning Qingshan appeared worried, but she was secretly panicking. She couldn’t afford to let Ning Xueyan return at this time or her plan would be for nothing.

“Princess, Third Sister, I… I really can’t hold on anymore. Why don’t I return to the Lord Protector’s Manor for some rest first? I’ll leave you to check our brother’s results.” Ning Xueyan forced a smile on her pale face. Everyone could tell that she wasn’t in a good state.

Her suggestion pleased them both. The Princess was happy that she would have time to get close to Ning Qingshan and develop a stronger relationship, while Ning Qingshan was glad that Ning Xueyan wouldn’t be getting away this time. Ning Yuling was still waiting in the manor anyway. All she had to do was watch the fire from a safe spot. She had evidence that Ning Yuling was having an affair and this matter was indeed beneficial to Ning Yuling. With Ning Yuling doing her dirty work, she didn’t have to do anything at all.

She threatened Ning Yuling with evidence of her affair because she thought that Ning Yuling would be reluctant to act. Little did she expect that Ning Yuling wouldn’t hesitate at all.

Since Ning Xueyan’s suggestion had satisfied them both, they easily agreed and even watched her enter the carriage. When the carriage had driven away, they returned to the teahouse and continued their “happy conversation”.

Ning Xueyan wiped away her pained expression inside the carriage. She took the handkerchief from Xinmei’s hand and wiped her face leisurely.

“Master, should we keep an eye on them?” Xinmei looked out of the carriage window uneasily. From here, she could see the Princess and Ning Qingshan walking into the teahouse.

“It’s all right. They won’t do anything now.” Ning Xueyan smiled. Both the Princess and Ning Qingshan were careful and secretive people, who preferred to take advantage when their enemies were fighting against one another. They wouldn’t trust each other and conspire wholeheartedly during their first meeting.

Right now, the person she had to watch out for was Ning Yuling. She would likely catch Ning Yuling off guard by returning to the Lord Protector’s Manor in advance.

Chapter 550: Chapter 554 ran away

Author: Gu Rong Rong MACHINE TRANSLATION

Gu Ruochu was almost driven mad by his torture. She had never thought that Huo Nanchen would have such a side to him. When she finally could not take it anymore, she begged him but he did not show her any compa.s.sion. He did not respond to her resistance at all.

He still wanted her to give birth, but he really did not stop His low and hoa.r.s.e voice was mixed with a burning aura, “I feel that you always act as if you don’t care. Do you really think that I will always allow you to do whatever you want? If you touch my bottom line, you will have to pay the price. ”

In the end, she lay on the bed like a salted fish.

His kiss was still on her back. She was so shocked that she quickly used her last bit of strength to push him away. “Huo Nanchen, don’t bully me anymore. ”

She really couldn’t stand it anymore. She suddenly had an inexplicable fear of him.

He actually… … Didn’t care about her feelings at all …

In a daze, he didn’t seem to move her anymore. Instead, he gently carried her into the bathroom.

His body actually still hurt a little. Perhaps the wound had just been torn, but seeing her rare obedient appearance, the stuffy feeling in his chest finally dissipated.

“Why can’t you be a little more obedient? ”

However, when he thought about it, if she was really obedient, it really would not be her.

He carried her to the bathroom and washed her clean. Then, he wrapped her in a circle around him before she slowly fell asleep.

When she woke up the next day, Gu Ruochu’s entire body was in pain.

It seemed that she had just showered and was lying on the bed in clean clothes.

Her eyes were sore and swollen. She slowly got up from the bed. She did not know where Huo Nanchen had gone, but from the soft voice coming from the apartment, she could tell that he was still there.

She got down from the bed, put on her shoes, opened the door, and ran downstairs.

Huo Nanchen had already realized that she might have woken up. He slowly brushed his teeth in the bathroom, wiped his face with her towel, and then slowly walked out, wanting to give her a chance to recover.

However, when he came out and saw that the door was ajar, he looked over and saw that the person who had been in the bedroom had disappeared.

His expression instantly darkened as he followed her downstairs.

“Ruo Chu! ”

Gu Ruochu had just run down from the apartment and wanted to hail a taxi. She looked around and was surprised to see Yi Eryang’s car parked in a semi-hidden area. Without a word, she slammed the car door.

Yi Eryang was shocked by the sound of the car window being slammed. When he saw that it was Gu Ruochu, he quickly opened the car window and asked, “what’s wrong? ”

Huo Nanchen’s expression had been terrible yesterday, so today, he had secretly peeked at the two to see how they were doing today. Who would have thought that in just a few minutes, the car window would be knocked open so rudely.

Gu Ruochu’s expression did not look too good. She only said, “take me to… my father’s place. ”

“Why? ”

Yi Eryang was not sure what had happened between the two of them. When he saw Gu Ruochu enter the car and close the car door, he saw the man chasing after her from the rear-view Mirror. He immediately understood.

An evil smile appeared on his lips. When Huo Nanchen looked at him, he started the engine and reversed the car. He then turned the car around and sped away.

The Moment Huo Nanchen saw Gu Ruochu’s side profile through the winds.h.i.+eld, his exquisite eyes were filled with coldness. A thousand-year-old chill lingered in his eyes as he stared unblinkingly at her.

At that moment, Gu Ruochu did not look at him.

In the next moment, the phone in the car suddenly rang. It seemed to have p.r.i.c.ked Gu Ruochu’s tensed nerves and she did not pick it up.

The phone only rang once before it quietly lay there.

A mocking smile appeared on Gu Ruochu’s lips. However, just as the car was about to leave, Yi Eryang saw from the rear-view mirror that a car seemed to be following closely behind.

He raised his brows. It must be Huo Nanchen.

“Ruo Chu, he seems to be chasing after us. ”

Chapter 1072: This Is the First Time I’ve Seen Such a Tall Child

Moreover, now that Fu Qingquan and Fu Huai’an were no longer vying over the Kaide Corporation, they were blood-related grandfather and grandson. Becoming old, a person tended to think of their children and grandchildren, and they would also look forward to having them in their lives. Fu Tianci was too young and unreliable, which was why Fu Qingquan thought of Fu Huai’an’s son Tuan Tuan and the newly born Yuan Yuan.

Fu Qingquan had also come intending to ease the tension between them.

When the door guards received the instructions, they allowed Fu Qingquan’s car to enter.

The instant Fu Tianci got out of the car and saw Fu Huai’an standing at the door, he asked, “Where’s Yuan Yuan?”.

“She’s upstairs sleeping!” Fu Huai’an’s att.i.tude towards Fu Tianci was more gentle than in the past. Perhaps now that he had a daughter, his heart had softened.

Fu Tianci nodded, then started complaining to Fu Huai’an, “When Yuan Yuan was born, I was forced by Sister Yan to stay in Korea to learn. I pleaded very hard with her and finally obtained permission to come back to attend Yuan Yuan’s one-month birthday celebration. Who knew there’d be this airline restriction thing in Korea. I was so mad! You’re the big boss behind the agency, so you should chide Sister Yan, tell her not to be so strict with me! Never mind that I’m the boss’s relative, I’m also still a child!”

Secretary Song got out of the driver’s seat and greeted Fu Huai’an with a smile. He didn’t hear what Fu Tianci was complaining to Fu Huai’an about again and walked to the back seats to pull open the car door.

Fu Huai’an remained standing with his hands in his pockets, staring at Fu Tianci with a hint of a smile. “This is the first time I’ve seen such a tall child.”

Fu Tianci was at a loss for words.

Could they still play together merrily?

Secretary Song supported Fu Qingquan as the latter stepped out of the car.

Fu Qingquan’s health was far worse than before. Despite holding a walking stick, he still needed Secretary Song to help support him, so one could just imagine how bad his health had become.

Originally, Fu Qingquan was even thinking of admitting defeat to Fu Huai’an, hoping that Fu Huai’an wouldn’t take his anger out on Fu Tianci after he pa.s.sed on.

But now, seeing the way Fu Tianci and Fu Huai’an got along, Fu Qingquan felt that he had over-thought things.

Fu Qingquan actually didn’t understand Fu Huai’an as a person. Fu Qingquan always judged others by his own standards, but how to put it… although Fu Huai’an was his maternal grandson, the latter had a very different personality from him.

Else, why were Lu Jinnan, Tang Zheng, Gu Qingcheng, and Bai Jinyu willing to risk their lives for Fu Huai’an, but when Fu Qingquan got to his age, he didn’t have a single true friend by his side?

If Fu Qingquan had friends he could trust by his side, he likely wouldn’t be thinking of coming here with the thought of admitting defeat to Fu Huai’an and pleading with him to take care of Fu Tianci after he pa.s.sed away.

Looking at the way they were speaking with each other, Fu Qingquan decided he didn’t have to do so. His brows unfurrowed, and he revealed a genuine smile. “Originally, I had wanted to come and see the child, but who knew I would come at a bad time, and the child would be asleep! Secretary Song!”

Secretary Song nodded, then took out a tiffany blue box from the trunk…

“This is for the child!” Fu Qingquan said with a smile. “It’s a little something. I hope the child will like it!”

Fu Huai’an nodded. Knowing that Fu Qingquan had come with kind intentions, he turned to one side and invited Fu Qingquan inside.

When Fu Qingquan entered the door, Uncle Blessing had come out of his room, looking like he had something to say to Fu Huai’an. But upon seeing that they had guests, he simply said h.e.l.lo and returned to his room.

Actually, Uncle Blessing only wanted to tell Fu Huai’an that his biological father, Jiang Chengyuan, had found out that Lin Nuan had given birth early on, and as the baby’s grandpa, he wanted to come and take a look at her!

But Jiang Chengyuan didn’t dare call Fu Huai’an himself, so he asked Uncle Blessing.

Uncle Blessing was an honest person. Ever since he had promised Jiang Chengyuan, he had been looking for an opportunity to raise this with Fu Huai’an.

But when Uncle Blessing and Aunt Blessing came, they saw that Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan were busy with the baby’s matters. They did almost everything they could handle by themselves and didn’t get the servants to help. Hence, Uncle Blessing didn’t get the chance to mention it to Fu Huai’an. Lin Nuan had also just finished her postpartum confinement… and Uncle Blessing felt bad adding to her trouble because of this matter!

Uncle Blessing had planned on discussing it with Fu Huai’an when he left. If Fu Huai’an didn’t wish to see Jiang Chengyuan, he could just give him a photo of the baby.

However, Uncle Blessing received a call from Jiang Chengyuan just now. The latter called and pressed about whether Uncle Blessing had spoken to Fu Huai’an. He had already arrived in Haicheng in order to see his granddaughter.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Blessing panicked and hurriedly stepped out to speak to Fu Huai’an about this. Though, he didn’t promise Jiang Chengyuan that he would definitely convince Fu Huai’an to let him see the baby!

But, seeing that they had guests, Uncle Blessing could only return to the guest room and talk later, when the guests had left.

Shortly after, Lin Nuan came downstairs. She arranged for snacks and tea to be brought to them, said h.e.l.lo, then went up with Fu Tianci because the latter asked to see the baby.

Lin Nuan was considered to have displayed a good upbringing. Back then, when she was in Fu Qingquan’s territory, Fu Qingquan had treated her like that. In the end, if Old Master Lin hadn’t stood out, he might have hurled all sorts of insults at Lin Nuan. To have come out personally and asked the servants to bring him tea was already a show of great respect to him. Fu Qingquan was clear of that.

…

Gu Qingcheng had drunk some alcohol today, but he wasn’t drunk, just a little tipsy.

He removed his suit jacket and tossed it aside, then unb.u.t.toned his sleeve b.u.t.tons. He leaned back in the backseat and closed his eyes to rest for a bit. The neon lights from the streets kept swiping over the car windows, illuminating the man’s mature and steady side profile one moment and making it indistinct the next.

The driver thought that Gu Qingcheng had fallen asleep and deliberately slowed down and stopped at the hotel’s entrance. He peered at Gu Qingcheng through the rearview mirror but saw that Gu Qingcheng had opened his eyes.

“Make a trip to the Cloud Top Condominium!” Gu Qingcheng said.

Fu Huai’an bought the top floor at the Cloud Top Condominium, whereas Gu Qingcheng bought the penultimate floor unit. The Cloud Top Condominium had top-notch security, so from the time Gu Qingcheng started planning for Yun Liuli’s future, he already had plans to give the condo unit to Yun Liuli…

Since it was for Yun Liuli, after the renovations were done, Gu Qingcheng didn’t really move in to stay.

Later, he made things clear with Yun Liuli. Although he had given the Cloud Top Condominium unit to Yun Liuli, he had been busy and hadn’t had the time to remove his fingerprints from the place. He planned to go there and get it done today.

The driver parked the car in front of the Cloud Top Condominium, then asked Gu Qingcheng if he needed him to go upstairs with him.

“No need…”

Gu Qingcheng said without any emotion, then closed the door. He put on his suit jacket and began walking towards the condo.

The men Gu Qingcheng sent to protect Yun Liuli said that Yun Liuli had never stayed overnight at the Cloud Top Condominium. She only placed her old belongings and things that she couldn’t bring to her hostel there. Since school started, she had been staying at the hostel, and they heard she got along quite well there.

The security guard at the entrance didn’t recognize Gu Qingcheng, so he stopped him. But seeing Gu Qingcheng’s low-profile and steady aura, his att.i.tude was rather respectful. “Sir, may I know which tenant you’re looking for?”

Chapter 660: You’re Already So Old, Yet You Still Get Food All Over Your Mouth Like When You Were Young!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Nuan drew a few pieces of tissue paper to dry her hands before reaching out to take the phone that Su Manman handed to her.

She didn’t move away, picking up the call before Su Manman, Fang Yan, and You Nainai. “Huai’an..”

“Li Muyang went to watch your show again today?” Fu Huai’an’s low and powerful voice rang out, making Lin Nuan feel a lot more at ease.

“En. Ah Zhan wanted me to repay the debt that I owe him for saving my life. He said that I just had to bring Nainai along with me to meet Li Muyang and have a chat with him, but I rejected him.”

Lin Nuan was honest, and the hand that tucked her stray hair behind her ear… was flush red.

Fu Huai’an had seen Li Muyang on the live broadcast earlier. The reason he had only called now was because he received a call from Li Muyang and then made new arrangements to ensure Lin Nuan’s safety.

In Fu Huai’an’s opinion, Lin Nuan’s safety was the most important. This wasn’t the time for him to be feeling jealous.

However, hearing his wife tell him everything so honestly, Fu Huai’an felt pleased. He smiled and said in a praising tone, his mature voice hiding a hint of a smile, “En, sweetie…”

Lin Nuan’s ears turned red. She recalled how she had called Tuan Tuan sweetie and dearest when she was coaxing him in the hospital today.

Although Lin Nuan’s ears had turned red, with how Fu Huai’an could still tease her like he usually did, she felt that there was probably no need for her to take the matters concerning Li Muyang to heart.

“How’s Tuan Tuan?” Lin Nuan quickly diverted the conversation.

“His fever has gone down. Bai Jinyu said that if we wish to bring him back, we can do so in a while. However, he’s worried that Tuan Tuan’s temperature might fluctuate, then we’d have to go through the trouble of bringing him back to the hospital. Therefore, he suggests that Tuan Tuan stays in the hospital for a night.”

The moment Fu Huai’an spoke, his alluring voice calmed all of the uneasiness in Lin Nuan’s heart.

“Does Tuan Tuan want to head home or stay in the hospital?” Lin Nuan asked.

“I don’t know yet. Tuan Tuan kept wanting to go to the bathroom earlier, but he was afraid that he’d miss out on your broadcast. Therefore, he held it in until the broadcast was over and then went to the bathroom immediately. He hasn’t come out yet…”

Lin Nuan tucked her stray hair behind her ears. “Then I’ll head to the hospital later and ask Tuan Tuan what he thinks about this. We’ll see if he wants to head home or stay in the hospital for a night.”

“Okay!”

“Bye-bye…” Lin Nuan bit her lip and said in a soft voice, “Dearest!”

On the other end of the call, Fu Huai’an’s hand tightened around the phone, and his deep gaze seethed.

Not giving Fu Huai’an a chance to speak, Lin Nuan hung up the phone. Her chaotic emotions calmed down, and her dimples showed as she smiled sweetly.

Fang Yan and You Nainai had thought that the “dearest” that Lin Nuan had said at the very end was directed towards Tuan Tuan and didn’t pay it much heed.

However, Su Manman, who was hugging her arms and leaning against the vanity mirror, noticed that something was amiss. She couldn’t help but smile and look toward Lin Nuan. “Dearest… To think that the nickname you gave Fu Huai’an is so coquettis.h.!.+”

Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.

How was that coquettish?

“I was speaking to Tuan Tuan. Don’t be spouting rubbis.h.!.+” Lin Nuan reb.u.t.ted.

“Since that man is a fake fan, then you must be more careful in the future. Bring along more people with you when you head out in the future!” Su Manman instructed Lin Nuan.

The phone in Su Manman’s pocket vibrated. She took it out and glanced at it. “I still have things to attend to and shall make a move first. You be careful!”

Lin Nuan nodded. “I know, don’t worry!”

After Su Manman left, Lin Nuan sat down before the vanity mirror to remove her makeup.

“Thud thud thud—”

Someone knocked on the door, and You Nainai was the first to tense up.

Fang Yan hadn’t swallowed the water in her mouth and also frowned. She was afraid that it’d be that Ah Zhan from earlier who came to pester Lin Nuan.

“Thud thud thud—”

The door-knocking sounds rang out again, and You Nainai clenched her fist and opened the door…

A dignified-looking lady wearing a light brown fur coat stood there. Her hair was done up, she wore impeccable makeup, and she was holding an expensive Hermès bag with one hand and a four-layer thermal lunch box with the other.

You Nainai was stunned. She vaguely felt that this dignified-looking lady’s disposition was a little familiar. However, before You Nainai could ask who this lady was, Lin Nuan called out, “Mom? Why are you here?”

It was only then that You Nainai understood. It was no wonder she found this lady’s disposition so familiar. Although her features didn’t bear any resemblance to Lin Nuan’s, there was a hint of similarity in the feeling they gave off. You Nainai quickly turned her body to let Liang Mulan in.

Liang Mulan smiled and thanked You Nainai before saying, “I knew that you were attending a show, so I told your brother to bring me here!”

Liang Mulan smiled and nodded when she saw Fang Yan. She walked up to Lin Nuan, put her bag on the vanity table, and then opened up the thermal lunch box. “I was afraid that you’d forget to eat when you got busy and thus prepared some food so you won’t be hungry.”

Lin Chen was now in charge of the Lin Corporation, and they were a sponsor for this program. Therefore, with Lin Chen here, it was easy for Liang Mulan to gain entry to the backstage.

The four-layer lunch box wasn’t big. One layer was some soup that Liang Mulan had brought for Lin Nuan. The other three were all snacks.

Lin Nuan felt warm inside. “You shouldn’t have come such a long way. You just need to give me a call to remind me!”

“It’s been a long time since you ate the snacks that Mom made, right? Quick, give them a taste…”

Liang Mulan got Fang Yan and You Nainai to come over and have some of the food as well. The two of them couldn’t refuse and gave the snacks a try. These snacks had all been handmade by Liang Mulan herself, and Fang Yan was all praises for them.

When Fang Yan introduced herself, Liang Mulan immediately realized who she was. She politely asked Fang Yan to take more care of Lin Nuan in the future.

This wasn’t the first time that Fang Yan had come into contact with dignified ladies from upper society. It was very rare to meet one with Liang Mulan’s outstanding disposition, one who gave people the feeling of the trickling water in spring and the warm sun when she spoke to others.

Ever since Lin Ran said that Liang Mulan could go and meet Lin Nuan, Liang Mulan couldn’t wait to make up for the motherly love she wasn’t able to give Lin Nuan during this period of time.

Liang Mulan had wanted to watch Lin Nuan’s show live, but she was afraid that her appearance might affect Lin Nuan. Therefore, she remained in the car until the program was over before she told Lin Chen to give the production team a call to bring her in.

“Where’s Brother? Is he outside?” Lin Nuan asked Liang Mulan.

Liang Mulan smiled and sat down next to Lin Nuan. She sorted out her coat slowly and sighed, saying, “En, he’s making a call outside regarding work matters. Ever since your brother took over the Lin Corporation, your dad has become more free, playing golf when he has nothing to do. But your brother has gotten busier. Last night, I told him to make time to have dinner with a girl, but he kept on making work calls the entire time, not saying a single word to her…”

In the past, Liang Mulan had enjoyed arranging for Lin Chen to attend such blind dates. Lin Chen would go every time, but when he came back each time, he would always tell Liang Mulan that they weren’t compatible.

Lin Nuan had heard a lot from Liang Mulan about Lin Chen’s blind dates in her small rental apartment.

“I’ve thought it through as well. There’s no forcing these things. I’ll leave things to fate…” Liang Mulan sighed, and her gaze landed on some crumbs at the corners of Lin Nuan’s lips. She let out a soft laugh, drew out a piece of tissue paper, and cleaned Lin Nuan’s mouth. “You’re already so old, yet you still get food all over your mouth like when you were young!”
