《First Marriage Love: The Reborn Wife is a Little Sweet》 CH 1 Inside a worn out warehouse located in the suburbs of the city, a woman with messy hair was lying weakly on the ground. It was obvious that life was slowly leaving her body bit by bit. Upon observing carefully, the woman¡¯s body was coated with whiplash scars. Two slender legs were twisted in an irregular way, and she lay on the ground lifelessly. A creaking sound sounded from the direction of the rusty gate. Luo Xi struggled to open her eyes, her hands still clenching on the sharp stone in her hand. She used the sharp to grind day and night. Crimson blood flowed from her tender palms, but she never stopped her movements. The hatred in her eyes was similar to a torrent of water, engulfing her sanity. The door was pushed open, revealing a woman dressed in a beige dress with crystal high heels on. She walked with elegant steps towards her direction. ¡°Dead?¡± The woman kicked Luo Xi with a disgusted face. The sharp high-heeled shoes scratched her bare skin, creating a bloodstain wound in the process. Two bodyguards wearing an emotionless expression moved forward and lifted Luo Xi who was lying on the ground roughly. ¡°Hey, not dead yet? What are you pretending for? Tired of living?¡± The newcomer was Luo Xi¡¯s sister, Luo Yuyi. Luo Yuyi looked at the once proud daughter of heaven, now in a pitiful state, and a trace of joy fleeted across her eyes. She opened her mouth with a smile, ¡°Sister, I came here to send you good news today. Why are you pretending to be displeased? Am I not welcome?¡± Luo Xi continued to lower her head, resembling a doll devoid of life, and stayed motionlessly. At the beginning, she also resisted. She fumed, scolded, and resisted like crazy, but all she got in return was Luo Yuyi¡¯s perverted whipping and torture. The more intense her reaction, the happier Luo Yuyi is. Seeing her acting like this, a hint of anger flashed in Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes. She reached out her hand and pulled her hair hard, and said with her lips curled viciously, ¡°Sister, your expressionless appearance is really chilling. Leng Minhang, who used to spoil you like a baby, has been sentenced to death now. You¡¯re not sad at all. If he got to know it, say, would he die in regret?¡± Luo Xi¡¯s pupils shrunk suddenly! ¡°Say it again!¡± ¡°I said, just today, your man was sentenced to death!¡± Feeling victorious, Luo Yuyi opened her mouth again. In the first place, she should have been the one who married Leng Minhang, but Luo Xi took away her man, took away the love that originally belonged to her! As such, she was reduced to the only option of working hand in hand with an illegitimate child! Luckily, this woman was so stupid that she spilled everything she knew, otherwise she wouldn¡¯t have the chance to take advantage of it. Leng Minhang was already in prison, and the only heir left in the Leng family was Leng Yuan. Now, she was married to Leng Yuan and would be the Madam of the Leng family in the future. If Leng Minhang had half of her in his eyes, things wouldn¡¯t have come to this point. All of this happened because of them! ¡°Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Minhang would never do those things. You framed him. How could he be sentenced to death!¡± Luo Xi shouted with a hoarse voice. Because of crying for so long, resentment and the depression hidden in her heart for a long time, her vocal cords seemed to have been sawed by a saw. Really unpleasant to the ear! ¡°Hahaha, you are still stupid as always. Since we had a way to get him to prison, we naturally also had a way to end his life! Look at how good I am. I got your son killed first, I was afraid that he would be lonely in the underworld, so I let your husband accompany him down! Of course, you don¡¯t have to be worried. After all, we are biological sisters. I will let you reunite with your family soon.¡± Luo Yuyi couldn¡¯t stop the victorious laughter that spilled out of her mouth. CH 2 ¡°Luo Yuyi, you¡¯re asking for death!¡± Luo Xiao gripped the sharp stone with so force in her hand. She didn¡¯t care about the blood the was flowing from her hand, and continued to scream woefully with a pair of bloodshot eyes. No one knew where she got the strength from, but she suddenly pushed away the two bodyguards and moved rapidly towards Luo Yuyi¡¯s body. The sharp stone in her hand was aimed straight at Luo Yuyi¡¯s face. Yet, she could react and before she could touch Luo Yuyi, her whole body felt light and she was thrown away by a huge force. With her head facing down, she directly smashed against the rocks and steel bars beside her. Dark-red liquid flowed from her forehead without stopping, staining her eyes that were full of intense hatred in the process. Even at her deathbed, her eyes were still staring at Luo Yuyi¡¯s direction with unwillingness. Die with piece! At night, the smell of disinfectant floated to the tip of her nose, and she abruptly sat up from the bed. Beads of sweet could be seen on her forehead. She looked at the unfamiliar scene around her and remained rooted on her position. The severe pain before her life ended was still clear in her memory. How could she appeared in a hospital now? She subconsciously touched her forehead. It was smooth, with no scars and wounds at all. Luo Xi became alarmed. What¡¯s going on? While she still absent-minded, she didn¡¯t see how her originally scarred hands were intact at this moment. It was not until two familiar voices sounded outside that Luo Xi came back to her senses. ¡°This child, why can¡¯t she forgive Yiyi? Yiyi hasn¡¯t been eating and drinking for several days now. What should I do if something bad happens to Yiyi? Really letting me worry about them!¡± A complaining female voice entered her ears through door. Along with the female voice was a man¡¯s sigh. The the door was pushed open. Seeing her daughter sitting rigidly on the bed, the woman who opened the door was frightened. When she saw her listless look, she wondered if the eldest daughter heard what she said just now. ¡°Xiao Xi! You¡¯re awake!¡± The man, who was about forty years old, shouted. It was Luo Xi¡¯s father, Luo Yang, together with Luo Xi¡¯s mother, Mu Qing, who entered the door. Luo Xi looked at this familiar scene with shock. The memories that were hidden deep inside her head flowed out like a water. She remembered this. This is the year at the end of her freshman year, and she just turned twenty. At the same time, it was also the second year her younger sister Luo Yuyi had just entered the house! She and Luo Yuyi are a pair of twin sisters, but when they were just born, Luo Yuyi was taken away by a person on duty in the hospital and was sold to a poor family. Since then, she started her miserable life growing up in a poor family. Despite the fact that they are sisters, their appearance didn¡¯t held any resemblance at all. It was only because Luo Yuyi had the object on her body left behind by Mu Qing when she had just born, adding to the paternity test confirming her blood relationship with the Luo family, that she became the young miss of the Luo family and also her sister. Luo Yuyi was initially called Mo Yiyi, but later changed her name to Luo Yuyi after entering the house. She was also so very attentive and doting to this younger sister who lived a miserable life since she was a little. She will even give her whatever she wants. If the other party does something wrong, she will take the initiative to stand up and take the blame. But much to her surprise, the sister that she loved deeply started to calculate and pushed her into the abyss step by step at this moment on. She couldn¡¯t wrap her mind about why her parents who originally love her turned their love to her younger sister. Every time she was wronged, her parents would say, she is your younger sister, you should let her have her way, and just bear with it. Luo Yuyi likes to take away her things, anything from clothes to jewelries, as long as she take a fancy to it, it will eventually fall into her hands. CH 3 This time, it was also the first official fight between them! And it was due to the marriage that appeared out of the blue. The relationship between the Leng family and the older generations of the Luo family could be considered great. This time, the Young Master of the Leng family had an accident. Rumor has it that his life won¡¯t last long. The Old Madam of the Leng family heard from somewhere that the accident happened because Leng Minhang¡¯s yang1 was flourishing and his yin2 was declining. They must find a person who was born in the year, month, and day of yin to suppress his evil spirit, so that he can be rescued. It just so happens that there are two sisters! The two were young, with similar ages, how could they be willing to be tied to such a dying person? Both of them were unreconciled. Even the younger sister cried to her parents, saying, ¡°I¡¯ve spent the ten years of my life living in the countryside. I initially thought that I could live a happy life with my family upon returning home, but I didn¡¯t expect that good days wouldn¡¯t last long. In just a few days, you actually want me to marry a dying person! I know that my sister grew up loved by you, and your relationship with her is not shallow. Even if I come back, I will be an outsider. If that¡¯s the case, then I¡¯ll go!¡± After that, she tried to take her own life by taking sleeping pills that night, frightening her parents to the point that they agreed to let her go on the spot! Although Luo Xi felt sorry for her younger sister, when she received the news, it was as if a bolt struck her out of the blue! She and Luo Yuyi were in the same class. By chance, she heard her sister tell their classmates that she was going to marry a dying man and will become a widow. Extreme emotions engulfed her mind and she went to argue with her. While they were arguing, they started to shove and push each other. She was young and immature at that time, so she could only chose such a stupid way to vent her anger. Then she was pushed into the river by Luo Yuyi but she didn¡¯t know how to swim, and when she opened her eyes again, she was already in the hospital. At first, she also hated Luo Yuyi because of what she did to her. Later, she heard from her mother that because of this incident, Luo Yuyi stayed in her room without going out because of guilt. She would not eat or drink for several days, saying that she would not go out until her sister forgave her. So she became worried about what would happen to her and forgave her. But it didn¡¯t diminish the fact that Luo Xi was strongly against the matter of marriage. However, it was the Leng family who made such a request. How can their little Luo family disagree? Although they feel sorry for their daughter, the two adults had their own intentions in mind. The benefits given by the Leng family are not small, enough to make their hearts moved in greed. At that time, she still had this crush on the senior in her heart, Leng Yuan. The school grass young master3 who is also called the iceberg boy! At that time, she was not aware that Leng Yuan was the illegitimate child of the Leng family, and the one who would fight against Leng Minhang for the right of property in the family. She was like those little sisters who yearn for love, and was bewitched by his great talent and handsome appearance. After being tied up by her family and sent to Leng¡¯s house, she gets to know Leng Yuan¡¯s identity. She was so worried at that time, knowing that the person she had a crush on was her brother-in-law, as she knew that she couldn¡¯t say her love to him in this life. As for Leng Minhang, something happened at that time, but when they got married, his health really turned for the better. The two saw each other on the wedding night, and the other person could be said to be the coldest and most charming man she had ever seen in her life! But at the same time, scary. After all, she was only twenty years old and was a girl who had never experienced the cruelty of society. On the other hand, the man was already a ruthless president of a big company, so being scared is inevitable. It¡¯s just that she would never imagine that such a seemingly cold man treated her surprisingly tenderly despite her fights and resisting actions against him. He was almost responsive to her every request, causing her to be the target of envy and jealousy of all the women in the upper class in an instant! CH 4 Luo Xi was not the type of person who was indecisive. After learning that things couldn¡¯t be changed back, she decided to let go and start a new life. It¡¯s just that she didn¡¯t expect that she would fall in love with this rigid man with a gentle heart! In the third year of their marriage, she got pregnant. This was also the year the darkest moment in her life started. Because she had too much trust in her sister, she spilled almost everything that she knew about Leng Minhang. She never imagined that Luo Yuyi, who seemed to be envious of her relationship with Leng Minhang, had already hooked up with Leng Yuan secretly. Luo Yuyi purposely approached her, trying to get her trust, and getting useful information about Leng Minhang from her. It was a pity that Leng Minhang didn¡¯t hide anything from her, and so, in a project, Leng Minhang was accused of obtaining a large amount of funds by illegal means and was arrested. At that time, she was not aware of what was happening. Luo Yuyi comforted her and said that Leng Minhang¡¯s enemies must have intentionally plotted against him. After that, Luo Yuyi escorted her home under the pretext of protecting her. Trusting Luo Yuyi, she was dragged to that worn out warehouse and watched her three-month-old unborn child become a puddle of blood and flow with her own eyes. She begged her sister but was rejected by her mercilessly. Then someone broke her legs, and Luo Yuyi finally revealed victoriously that she was the one behind all of it! Thinking of those days and nights where living was worse than death, Luo Xi fell into a daze. ¡°Xiao Xi, what are you thinking? Let me tell you, you really did something wrong this time. How could you bully Yiyi at school? She didn¡¯t mean to push you into the river. Now, because of this, she locked herself in her room and won¡¯t eat or drink for few days now! Say, why are you so not sensible when you are the elder sister?¡± When she saw that her eldest daughter had a dazed look on her face, Mu Qing couldn¡¯t stop herself from opening her mouth to blame her. After all, the younger daughter suffered so much since she was still a little, and Luo Xi grew up happily with them, so she naturally intended to side with the younger daughter. Sure enough, everything was exactly the same as in her previous life. In her previous life, as a little princess who was loved and pampered starting from when she was still a child, her initial reaction was to complain, but before she could open her mouth, her mother would start scolding her. Then the initial grievance turned into guilt after hearing that Luo Yuyi didn¡¯t eat or drink for several days. Besides, she also love this sister of hers, and Luo Yuyi didn¡¯t mean what she did to her at school. So after begging her and exhausting all kinds of good words, Luo Yuyi was finally willing to get out of the room. Starting from that moment onwards, the family loved this hard-earned sister even more. But now, just hearing the name of this woman Luo Yuyi made her blood boil. She had the urge to stab her fiercely with a knife, rip open her chest, and pull her heart out and see how black it was! It looks like there is a thick, insoluble darkness in her pupil, overflowing and surging. In this life, Luo Yuyi, I will not be polite on the account that you are my blood-related sister. The things that you took from me, I will take it back one by one! And you, go to hell! A trace of madness flashed in her eyes, and then she kept silent. Her eyes turned red as tears of sadness flowed down from her eyes. Seeing her daughter crying with a sad appearance, Mu Qing panicked. After all, the eldest daughter has always been obedient and seldom cried. Her action of crying all of sudden startled her, causing her to be a little confused. ¡°Look at you, Xiao Xi just woke up and you talked to her harshly. My daughter was scared to the point of crying by you!¡± Luo Yang also loved this eldest daughter very much. Seeing Luo Xi crying, he immediately blamed his wife beside him. CH 5 ¡°Right, yes, yes, it¡¯s all my fault. Xixi, don¡¯t cry, mom didn¡¯t mean to do it. You see, your sister is still young and you should tolerate her, right?¡± Mu Qing quickly comforted her, but the three sentences she said were all about Luo Yuyi. In her previous life, she wholeheartedly believed in her mother, thinking that she was the one at fault. Her younger sister was still young, and she had to give in to her. However, the thought that there was only a few minutes difference between them never crossed her mind. Is it justifiable to do whatever you want just because you are young? Is Mu Qing aware that the baby girl she¡¯s talking about was already a twenty-year-old girl like her? Although the love from the parents existed, in the matter of marriage, only benefits were left. Perhaps her parents also had feelings for each other, but these feelings were supported by benefits! She wondered if they ever felt a little sad when she passed away. After all, for them, feelings were the least important. But in this life, she won¡¯t let those things happen! She wants to change and turn her life around! No matter what the expense is! ¡°Mom, I didn¡¯t mean to do it. It¡¯s because my sister told our classmates that I was going to marry a dying man and become a widow, then I became angry and went to argue with her. I didn¡¯t expect she would push me into the river after she got angry. You know, I can¡¯t swim. If someone hadn¡¯t come to save me, I, I¡¯m afraid I wouldn¡¯t see you all again!¡± Luo Xi cried sadly. Luo Xi was a famous school belle1 in the school, so her appearance was undoubtedly great. It was only because she didn¡¯t dress up well that no one sets their eyes on her. But now, her current weak appearance makes the people around her feel pity for her. Upon learning that the youngest daughter dared to say such disgraceful words, Luo Yang turned furious in an instant, ¡°What? Yiyi, how dare she say those words!¡± ¡°Xixi, is what you said true?¡± Mu Qing had her eyes widened with shock. ¡°Yes, mom, I¡¯m not lying. Many people witness her saying those words to others. I heard that there are some people from the Leng family in school. I¡¯m afraid that people in the school will spread it to the ears of the Leng family¡¯s people. If that happened, what would they think of our family? A family like the Leng family¡­¡± Luo Xi¡¯s body trembled at the end of her sentence, looking extremely scared to continue to speak any more. Come to think of it, offending this kind of strong family, can they still have a good end? Initially, the two adults were only angry about the words their youngest daughter had said. But now, after hearing Luo Xi¡¯s next words, the anger changed into fear. The couple¡¯s expression turned into fear, particularly Luo Yang. If this kind of gossip reached the ears of the Leng family, their Luo family will be finished! ¡°That child is really a disgraceful thing!¡± Luo Yang stood up with a fuming look, ¡°She still has the face to give me a little temper!¡± Luo Yang was suspicious by nature, so when he heard what his eldest daughter said, he almost believed it. Speaking of Luo Yuyi, he was also very sorry for her. She was very well-behaved when she first entered the house, then later she became a little tempered, but he didn¡¯t take it to heart. He didn¡¯t expect that she would have the nerve to say such scandalous words! ¡°Husband, don¡¯t be angry. You also know that Yuyi¡¯s temper is very straightforward, so she accidentally said those words to other people in school. But the people in school don¡¯t know our connection with the Leng family, so it should be alright.¡± When she saw his seething expression, Mu Qing quickly found an excuse for her youngest daughter. Sitting on the hospital bed, the corner of Luo Xi¡¯s mouth lifted with a touch of irony. Luo Yuyi didn¡¯t even bother to hide her gloating look about her sister¡¯s misfortune, and she even pushed her into the river. Is this also because of Luo Yuyi¡¯s straightforward temper? CH 6 Her mother never failed to find an excuse for Luo Yuyi. ¡°You¡¯re right, mom. Sister¡¯s temper is really straightforward, or else why would she tell our classmates that I am a widow? Mom, am I really a widow? Didn¡¯t you say that the man in the Leng family is just ill?¡± Luo Xi pretended to be puzzled. A trace of guilt fleeted across Mu Qing¡¯s eyes. She looked at the appearance of her eldest daughter looking at her pitifully and trustingly, and a wave of guilt washed over her heart. Inside, she couldn¡¯t help but open her mouth to blame the youngest daughter. How can she say such excessive words? ¡°Of course not. Your sister just doesn¡¯t know what she¡¯s talking about. When we decided to marry Xixi, we hoped that you could be a young lady and not a widow!¡± She said in a scolding manner. ¡°Then I understand now, Mom. I am willing to marry. I know your situation is not easy. I was ignorant and not obedient in the past, causing you many troubles. I will listen to you from now on.¡± Luo Xi bowed her head and looked at her with guiltiness in her eyes. No one noticed the coldness coming from the depths of her eyes! Hearing her words of agreement, both Mu Qing and Luo Yang were surprised. When she was her obedient appearance, Mu Qing became even more guilty. They didn¡¯t know when, but they gradually paid less attention to this eldest daughter. Now that they started to look at her seriously, they found the former daughter before who made immensely proud was now lifeless. The attentiveness of their eldest daughter caused them to shut their mouths. After all, with the willfulness of the youngest daughter as a comparison, the eldest daughter didn¡¯t do anything to make them lose face, despite being against the matter of marriage with the Leng family. With such a comparison, Luo Xi¡¯s weight in their hearts suddenly climbed to a higher level. Luo Yang spoke with relief written on his face, ¡°Xixi is still the most obedient. You don¡¯t have to be anxious, even if you go to the Leng family as their daughter-in-law, mom and dad will always love you.¡± Luo Xi nodded in a well-behaved manner. She hopes that they won¡¯t feel sore in the face when they use her again and again in the future to gain benefits from the Leng family! Estimating the time, half a month of time was still left before she would be sent there. Leng Minhang, when she thought that she would be able to see him again in this life, her nose turned sour. She was so excited that she had the urge to cry! In her previous life, she never placed importance on the time she spent with Leng Minhang. For the first two years of their marriage, she would always have a cold face in front of him no matter how well he treated her. It was not until the third year that the situation slowly turned better. When she got pregnant, their relationship became even sweeter. But who would have thought that while this man was occupied doing everything for her, she would inadvertently become an accomplice to his death? Even though she didn¡¯t know the credibility of Luo Yuyi¡¯s words before she died, she was not reconciled that a powerful man like him would fall to such a point, but if it wasn¡¯t for her, none of this would have happened. The guilt was similar to a mountain, pressing on her heart with so much force, almost making her breathless. After the two left the hospital room, she remained rooted on the bed, then she stretched out her hand to look for her phone at the side. Looking at the time, the date happened to be exactly three years ago! She clicked on the address section, and a few numbers were revealed. Some were from family members, a few friends, and the one she particularly held importance before. She got this number through the other girls after a hard work. At that time, she was head over heals to Leng Yuan, resembling a fan to her idol. But who would have thought that the man whom she made a promise with would personally join hands with her younger sister, resulting in their family¡¯s downfall! The long fingers clenched the phone with so much force, and the knuckles turned white. CH 7 With a face as white as a sheet, her fingers moved on the dial pad. She typed a familiar phone number that she couldn¡¯t be more familiar with, and called it without any hesitation. In her previous life, the news of Leng Minhang¡¯s recovery after the two families had the marriage entered her ears. The old lady from the Leng family assumed that she was the one reason behind it, so the way she treated her was very kind. It was a pity that she played tricks and caused this kindness to be ruined. A sigh escaped from her lips. She discovered these things too late, and now, she had no idea about Leng Minhang¡¯s condition. Although the two of them would inevitably meet each other in half a month, the disorganized thoughts inside her heart caused her to be unable to wait any longer. A beeping sound came from the phone, and after ringing for a while, a man¡¯s deep voice came through. This was his private phone number, and the people who knew it were normally his family members. So he didn¡¯t even bother to check the name of the caller and just answered it directly, otherwise he would have hung up when seeing the unfamiliar number. That man¡¯s voice she wished to hear day and night floated in her ears. Luo Xi¡¯s body shook with eagerness, with tears pouring down on her face. Not receiving any reply, the man on the other side of the phone became a little impatient. Scared that he would end the call, Luo Xu quickly composed herself and opened her mouth, ¡°Hus¡ªMr. Leng, It¡¯s Luo Xi.¡± When she almost blurted out the word husband, Luo Xi was so startled that she quickly changed her word. She couldn¡¯t allow him to have any suspicions. After all, the present Leng Minhang doesn¡¯t know her at all. As she thought of the relationship that was finally established after much work was ruined just like that, Luo Xi¡¯s heart was pulled hard. ¡°Luo Xi?¡± The other party¡¯s tone was stained with a hint of surprise, but he soon restored to his former coldness, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± When they were young, the two had seen each other, but that was when the Luo family was still flourishing and was not declining like as of now. The older generation of the two families had a great relationship, and she was often taken by her grandfather when visiting the Leng family. The problem is, she was just a child at that time, and the memory left in her mind now is unclear. In her previous life, she was ignorant of Leng Minhang¡¯s appearance until they got married. After her grandfather¡¯s death, the two families gradually lost contact with each other. Luo Xi became a little awkward and said with a soft voice, ¡°It¡¯s just that, I, I just wanted to ask about your health.¡± On the highest floor of a certain building, a tall man clad in a black suit stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his deep eyes were looking down at the scenery below. Upon hearing what she said, his hand that was shaking the wine glass paused slightly, and his mouth curled up, forming a cold smile. ¡°Do you think you don¡¯t need to marry me if my health became good?¡± ¡°No ¡± Luo Xi was misunderstood. She called him because she was concerned about him, but she couldn¡¯t say it now because they don¡¯t know each other in this life, lest he became suspicious. Her teeth pressed against her lip. She started to regret her action of calling him impulsively. What if he asked her where she got the phone number from? The more her mind thought in that direction, the more she became annoyed with herself. Luo Xi didn¡¯t get any answer from the man on the other side of the phone, and replied in panic, ¡°I¡¯ll hang up now!¡± Listening to the beeping sound on the phone, the stern man faintly lifted his eyebrows, and a look of interest flashed in his eyes. The scene of her being forced to go home to coax Luo Yuyi out of the room didn¡¯t happen in this life. Instead, it was Luo Yuyi who took the initiative to visit her to the hospital room with an ugly face. Just by seeing her expression, her father must have taught her a lesson. Otherwise, according to her character, how could she take the initiative to bow down her head? A hint of sarcasm flashed across Luo Xi¡¯s eyes. Both of them only turned twenty this year, and they were still young and studying, carrying an immature air around their faces. And Luo Yuyi resembled a well-behaved girl. She knows how to say good words and has a sweet-looking face, so everyone likes her very much. CH 8 On the other hand, Luo Xi, without her knowledge, became an arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable eldest daughter outside! As she watched Luo Yuyi tailed behind her parents¡¯ back, her mind involuntarily played back the scene of this woman¡¯s hideous expression after killing her unborn child in her previous life. Just thinking about it caused her body to shake with hatred! ¡°Sister, I know it¡¯s my fault. You won¡¯t be angry with me, right?¡± Luo Yuyi noticed that she remained seated on the hospital bed unconcerned, a trace of hostility flashed in her eyes. She then proceeded to walk in her direction and held her hand, and said in a spoiled tone. Luo Xi had a strong urge to slap her hand away, but she was aware that their parents¡¯ eyes were on them. She can¡¯t let her emotions take over herself, especially after she fooled them by pretending to be pitiful. If she really slapped Luo Yuyi¡¯s hand away, Luo Yuyi might use this chance to throw herself in her mother¡¯s arms again to cry! She inhaled deeply. I¡¯m her previous life, Luo Yuyi resorted to the trick of the white lotus act to snatch everything from her. In this life, she would do the same to make Luo Yuyi repay what she owned to her a hundredfold! ¡°Xiao Xi, you see, your sister also admits her wrongdoing. You know, there is no overnight feud between sisters.¡± Mu Qing smiled and advised on the side. In the beginning, she mistakenly assumed that it was the eldest daughter¡¯s fault, but after listening to her explanation, it turned out to be the youngest daughter¡¯s fault. But the youngest daughter readily admitted her mistake. As an elder sister, Luo Xi must forgive her little sister. From Mo Qing¡¯s perspective, this is a matter of course. ¡°Of course, I will forgive Yiyi. Who let her be my good sister?¡± Luo Xi curled her lips weakly. The corner of Luo Yuyi¡¯s mouth lifted into a victorious smile. Hmph! At least you know what you¡¯re doing! The couple smiled in relief after seeing this. But Luo Xi¡¯s next words made the smile on their faces stiffen. ¡°It¡¯s alright if Yiyi hits me whenever she wants, but next time, can you not push me into the river? Yiyi, you were also aware that sister didn¡¯t know how to swim. If no one comes to save me, and if something bad really happens to me, not only our parents will be sad, but also the Leng family will be sad. When the time comes, it¡¯ll be hard to give them an explanation. After all, this kind of thing is very unlucky¡­¡± After letting out these words, her body shook with fear. Blood left her face and a frightened expression appeared on her palm-sized face. The victorious smile on Luo Yuyi¡¯s face froze. If something bad really happens to Luo Xi one day, they definitely have to give the Leng family an explanation. After all, the two families had already reached an agreement to marry Luo Xi to the Leng family! The couple broke out in cold sweat! They couldn¡¯t imagine what would happen if an accident happened to Luo Xi. It also caused their hearts, which had just calmed just now, to begin to hang again. Luo Yuyi immediately came back to her senses and saw her parents¡¯ ugly expressions, and opened her mouth angrily, ¡°Sister, it¡¯s not as bad as you said. Even if someone doesn¡¯t come to save you, I will save you. That kind of thing won¡¯t happen again. Don¡¯t think too much about it, you¡¯re just making mom and dad worry.¡± ¡°Is that so? But I almost drowned in the river. I¡¯ve been flipping helplessly in the water long enough, but why didn¡¯t you go down to save me? You almost let me drown in the river, don¡¯t you know how scared sister is?¡± Luo Xiao asked with an aggrieved expression. When Luo Yang and My Qing heard what she said, their faces turned even uglier. Luo Yuyi couldn¡¯t refute it. At that time, it was true that she really had the intention of letting Luo Xi die, so that her parents would only focus all their love on her. How can someone expect her to rescue Luo Xi? ¡°Luo Yuyi, Xixi is your older sister! Why is your heart so dark? You pushed your own sister into the river, and didn¡¯t even have the thought of rescuing her!¡± Veins protruded on Luo Yang¡¯s temple. It was obvious that he was furious! CH 9 This time, aside from Luo Yang, Mu Qing was also angered and disappointed. She looked at Luo Yuyi and blamed her, ¡°Yiyi, Xixi is your own sister. How can you not save her when she¡¯s almost drowned? She usually lets you have your way in everything and treats you very kindly!¡± ¡°Dad, mom, don¡¯t be angry with Yiyi. It¡¯s all my fault, I shouldn¡¯t let my emotions get over me when sister said I was a widow. I was wrong.¡± Luo Xi said sadly. Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes became big, and a flash of disbelief fleeted across her eyes. How come it became like this? Shouldn¡¯t the person who should be blamed be Luo Xi? In the past, just by acting spoiled to her parents would force Luo Xi to bow down her head. How come the scene this time became different? Something unspeakable feeling briefly appeared inside her heart. She turned her head towards Luo Xi, and had a feeling that something had changed, but she couldn¡¯t pinpoint it out exactly. When Luo Xi¡¯s words entered her ears, the couple felt that the youngest daughter was too evil, and scolded, ¡°Yiyi, did you hear that? Your sister is very kind, you can¡¯t bully her in the future, do you understand?¡± Luo Yuyi balled up her hand subconsciously. Inside her heart, she gnashed her teeth with so much hate. However, she was aware that she couldn¡¯t afford to be angry at this time. The more she would go against her parents, the more they would feel that she was not sensible. She deeply understands how to make these two adults soften their attitudes. It was also because of that reason that even after she only entered the house for one year, she was able to crush Luo Xi until she was only left with a bone. But today, Luo Xi has changed! She knitted her eyebrows and turned to look at Luo Xi. She was still the same as before. Forget it, it must be because she was lucky this time. After staying at the hospital for several days this time, it was natural that her parents would take Luo Xi¡¯s side, but it didn¡¯t matter. One day, she will let Luo Xi see clearly who is the most beloved daughter of her parents. She bowed her head with dissatisfaction and acknowledged her wrongdoing, ¡°Mom, dad, I know I was wrong. It¡¯s all because I¡¯m so angry that I did such an imprudent action. I will definitely compensate my sister properly in the future.¡± The couple¡¯s expression eased slightly when they heard her words. ¡°That¡¯s right, your sister is going to get married soon. You two sisters won¡¯t have that much time to spend together in the future, so you should place importance on it.¡± Luo Yang nodded with a relieved expression. Luo Yuyi said yes obediently. Luo Xi hung her head and pretended to be well-behaved. Despite the fact that she agreed to get married this time, her parents were still worried that she would regret her decision, so they used the excuse of preparing for the wedding to keep her at home and not allow her to go to school. To have the chance to marry their daughter to a big family like the Leng family, studying has long been unimportant to them. After the marriage is done, a family like them certainly do not want their daughter-in-law to go out and show their faces. Although the word ¡®married¡¯ is used, in fact, it was all about just getting a certificate. After all, for a big family like them, if rumors about rushing a marriage spread, how unpleasant would it be? Besides, Luo Xi was just too young and still a student, so the two families came to the decision to have the marriage in secret. Just obtain the certificate first, and hold a wedding when Luo Xi is old enough. So in her previous life, Luo Xi became like this, forced to wear a dress, and was driven away. Even the matter of getting the marriage certificate was all handled by the other party, and her presence was not needed at all. For a big family like them, they can naturally handle everything. Forget it, she just needs to stay at home and wait to get married. Because she will be married off, her parents gave her everything that was hard to come by, be it food, clothing, or jewelry. Luo Yang even gifted her with a card that she can swipe whenever she wants. Luo Xi accepted it without hesitation. As she knew very well, what the Leng family gave to the Luo family was definitely a hundred times more than this card! CH 10 Luo Yuyi, who was at the side, noticed his series of actions and her eyes turned red with jealousy. She begged, ¡°Dad, I also want it!¡± ¡°You¡¯re still a student. What do you want so much money for? Can¡¯t your mother buy it for you?¡± Luo Yang creased his forehead and rebuked her. Luo Xi¡¯s well-behaved actions these days caused him to feel more and more sorry for this eldest daughter. After all, she was the daughter he doted on and watched grow up since she was a child. In terms of affection, his affection for the eldest daughter was deeper than for the youngest daughter. It was only because of the youngest daughter that he gradually ignored it and became alienated from his eldest daughter. He also knows that she doesn¡¯t want to marry into the Leng family, but in order not to implicate their family, she agrees. Stark contrast to the youngest daughter who used her own life as a way not to marry, the eldest daughter was simply too sensible! He also owed her something, so he intended to give everything just to make her delighted and compensate her before she gets married. When she saw that her husband favored the eldest daughter over the youngest daughter, Mu Qing couldn¡¯t stop the frown on her face and spoke, ¡°Husband, both of them are your daughters, and it¡¯s not good for you to do this. Xixi is going to marry into the Leng family. When the time comes, is there still any need for her to spend her own money? The answer is no. However, Yiyi had lived a hard life since she was young. She didn¡¯t even have the chance to even wear a single good dress. I think she hasn¡¯t bought clothes for a long time. How about you ask Xixi to give the card to Yiyi? Yiyi also needs some money to buy a beautiful dress to look beautiful. If she looked beautiful, there would be many families there who are willing to marry her, right?¡± In Mu Qing¡¯s eyes, Luo Xi will live in the Leng family in the future. She would become a daughter-in-law of another family soon, so she was not different from a splashed water1. Besides, just like what she said, the Leng family would definitely not wrong her, so there was no need to give her money. But it was different from the youngest daughter. Every time she looked at her pitiful appearance, she became remorseful and had the urge to give her the best. Mu Qing was also selfish. When her eldest daughter was young, she only kissed her father, and always treated her in a lukewarm way. She also couldn¡¯t get herself to like her eldest daughter¡¯s character. She was not at all like those clingy and spoiled little daughters of other families. And the return of her youngest daughter finally let her have this feeling. She sometimes even thought, if it was the eldest daughter who was taken away back then, how great would it be? Mu Qing¡¯s words also have a point. Luo Yang listened and frowned after hearing this. He turned his head to Luo Xi, ¡°Xixi, look, your sister¡­¡± ¡°Dad!¡± Luo Xi opened her mouth before he could finish his sentence, ¡°Could it be because your daughter is going to get married that I can¡¯t even take away the last thing my father gave me?¡± ¡°This, dad does not mean this. It¡¯s dad¡¯s fault, I¡¯m just saying nonsense. Even if Xixi is married out, she is still our good daughter. Nothing less should be given, how can I wrong my daughter!¡± After hearing his daughter¡¯s words, Luo Yang felt that what he did was wrong. The eldest daughter was about to get married. If he let his youngest daughter take the things that should be given to her sister, wasn¡¯t it equivalent to giving nothing to the eldest daughter? He couldn¡¯t help but spoke blaming words towards his wife at the side, saying, ¡°Yiyi is still young, and she should focus on studying and having good grades. Wearing fancy dress, what do you mean by that? Girls should learn how to be frugal. Spending money mindlessly, wouldn¡¯t it make outsiders think that our family is intentionally flaunting our wealth?¡± When she heard what he said, Mu Qing knitted her eyebrows, but she felt that what her man said was reasonable. However, she always felt that something was wrong, and there was a feeling that things should not develop in this direction. Luo Yuyi at the side was originally smug. Seeing that the card was almost in her reach, she didn¡¯t expect to encounter such a big turn of events. She became so angry that she almost vomited blood. Putting the bowl on the table with so much force, she spoke with anger, ¡°Dad, you are too biased. I knew it, you only had sister as your daughter in your heart! Poor me, I worked so hard just to be with you all, but you don¡¯t me at all! We might as well not stay as a family! I¡¯ll pack up and go back tomorrow!¡± With tears on her face, she said. Then she moved her legs and ran upstairs. CH 11 Luo Xi¡¯s hands never get tired of controlling things behind the scenes. She looked at her father¡¯s remorseful appearance from the corner of her eye and placed the chopsticks down from her hand. She spoke helplessly, ¡°Since my sister said so, then dad, I don¡¯t want the card anymore. You can just give it to sister. Anyway, after going to the Leng family, they will give me money once they see that I have no money to use. After all, big families like them can¡¯t afford to let their daughter-in-law be left without money, right?¡± ¡°Alas, I just wanted to keep the card. It¡¯s not that I don¡¯t want to give it to sister, but I need to buy some decent clothes and jewelry. I don¡¯t want our family to lose face after getting there. But dad, I don¡¯t want to let sister misunderstand and think that you¡¯re favoring me over her.¡± Luo Yang¡¯s expression of remorse quickly changed. Saving a face is the thing he placed great importance on. If a person told him that he let his daughter marry without even preparing some decent clothes and jewelry for her, then wouldn¡¯t that make him lose face! It was really wicked for the youngest daughter to fight with her sister just for this small matter! Mu Qing scolded her, ¡°What are you talking about! People don¡¯t care about those things now. So what if you give Yiyi such a small thing? Yiyi has a willful temper. What if she really leave the house and something happened!¡± Luo Xi lowered her head and said with a hint of fear, ¡°Mom, I know it¡¯s my fault. I¡¯ll give the card to sister right now.¡± ¡°That child who used to be obedient before now wants to get everything from Xixi! She can get out of the house if she wants to, just don¡¯t come back if she has the guts!¡± Luo Yang did not expect his wife to favor the youngest daughter. She even said such words to the eldest daughter. His dislike for Luo Yuyi deepened, and he said angrily. Luo Yuyi, who was lying on her bed upstairs and secretly listening to them, almost vomited blood when she heard this! She just said those words intentionally to remind her parents to coax her. Who knew that it would backfire on her! It was completely out of line from what she expected! Damn Luo Xi, how can she speak so well! Usually at times like this, she will keep her mouth shut and only knows how to give things to her right? When she saw that her husband lost his temper, Mu Qing didn¡¯t have the courage to open her mouth again. After all, Luo Yang was the one in charge of the family and he especially disliked it when people contradicted his decisions. Although he also loves their youngest daughter, this time his mood was not calm. Just compensate the youngest daughter later. Luo Xi walked back to her room. When she walked past Luo Yuyi¡¯s room, she heard the sound of Luo Yuyi¡¯s crying inside together with Mu Qing¡¯s comforting words. She looked down at the card held in her hand, and her eyes flashed with a touch of coldness. Luo Yuyi, this is just the beginning. The next day, Luo Yang and Mu Qing were planning to go out when they heard their eldest daughter¡¯s shout from upstairs. The two quickly climbed upstairs and saw Luo Xi having a panicky look while looking for something. They frowned and asked, ¡°Xixi, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡± ¡°Dad, the card you gave me disappeared. I placed it inside my wallet yesterday, but I can¡¯t find it now!¡± Luo Xi looked at them, with an expression of crying at any second, and said worriedly. ¡°What?¡± Luo Yang¡¯s expression turned solemn upon listening to her words. The card must have at least one million inside. And she was saying that it had disappeared. The eldest daughter was too careless! He was about to scold her when he heard Luo Xi continue to say anxiously, ¡°You gave me the card last night, and I have not been out of the house. The card was placed inside my room all along. How could it disappear all of a sudden?¡± Stolen? ¡°Has any aunt entered your room today!¡± Mu Qing¡¯s expression turned stern when she heard that there might be a thief inside the house. Although the Luo family could not be considered a big family, they still owned a huge company, so they still held a considerable position in the business industry. The house was filled with servants, and she was worried that someone from the cleaning maids became jealous and decided steal things! CH 12 ¡°No, but my sister told me that she wanted to borrow my book¡­¡± Luo Xiao bowed her head and thought for a while. Upon hearing what she said, the couple quickly changed their expression. Recalling Luo Yuyi¡¯s actions last night, it was not impossible. But there was no way that she would do something so obvious! In her previous life, the thought that Luo Yuyi would be so bold never crossed her mind. At that time, she was also reluctant to hand over the card to Luo Yuyi, and her parents became dissatisfied because of this. Her father thought that since she would get married soon, forcing her to do it was not necessary. In the end, he just gave Luo Yuyi another card out of helplessness. She just never imagined that despite already having her own card, Luo Yuyi still secretly took her card to use. So even after the incident passed, she never suspected her at all! Luo Yuyi swiped more than half the money inside the card and returned it to her sneakily. Later, when her father saw the payment information, he thought she had spent a large amount of money on buying things and came back to reprimand her severely. At that time, her mind was confused. She never got out of the house. She was not aware that someone had unknowingly touched her wallet. If she hadn¡¯t heard Luo Yuyi reveal it to her later, she would have been ignorant of the identity of the person who plotted against her. She was really pitiful like a fool. Aside from being mistakenly blamed, she was also reprimanded. It¡¯s really laughable! This time, she will absolutely not be a fool and let her frame her again. Since Luo Yuyi had the nerve to do it, then let her wait and bear the anger of their father! Today is Saturday. At noon, Luo Yuyi went to her room to borrow books from her and she agreed. After that, Luo Yuyi told her parents that she would go out to shop with friends and left. Luo Yuyi was aware that their parents had something to do outside today, so after making sure of this, she completely let herself go and swiped the card wantonly! Luo Xi will not give her this chance this time. ¡°Could it be that Yuyi stole the card?¡± Father Luo spoke with a livid face. ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense, how could Yiyi be such a petty thief!¡± Mu Qing frowned and voiced in disagreement. ¡°She was the only one who entered Xixi¡¯s room. If it¡¯s not her, then who else? Could it be that the card disappeared without any reason?¡± Father Luo opened his mouth with his brows lifted. After all, the youngest daughter had been bothering him for a card last night. Now, the eldest daughter¡¯s card disappeared inexplicable and it really caused people to be suspicious. Although Mu Qing had some suspicions in her heart, she was still reluctant to believe that her youngest daughter would be such a person! ¡°Anyway, I don¡¯t believe Yiyi would do a thing like that. How can you, a father, suspect his own daughter like this?¡± Mu Qing disapprovingly looked at him. ¡°Then where did Xixi¡¯s card go!¡± Father Luo said sternly. What he disliked the most was this kind of sneaky thing. Let alone his own daughter, if it turned out to be true, it would simply make him lose face! ¡°Father, stop being angry. If Yiyi really intends to use it, let her use it. I¡¯m alright, as long as she returns the card to me when the time comes!¡± Luo Xi persuaded him. Upon hearing the eldest daughter¡¯s surrendering words, Luo Yang turned even more angry. Mu Qing was also afraid that he would lose his temper with his youngest daughter, and also persuaded, ¡°Xixi had already said it. Don¡¯t be angry anymore. The two of them were sisters, it¡¯s just right to use each other¡¯s things, right? If we don¡¯t leave now, we will be late for the banquet!¡± Luo Yang listened to her words, and felt that the youngest daughter was merely angry, and resorted to taking her own sister¡¯s card as revenge. Despite the fact that his heart was full of anger, he knew that some business matters were waiting for him to be tended to. He said, ¡°When I come back, I will help you clean her up!¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay, as long as she doesn¡¯t use it indiscriminately, I will not be angry.¡± Luo Xi smiled and said. ¡°She still has the guts to use it. See if I don¡¯t break her leg!¡± Luo Yang said angrily. CH 13 A ridiculing expression emerged in Luo Xi¡¯s eyes for a second, and she silently said in her heart¡ªIt looked like aside from having the guts to use her card, Luo Yuyi even dared to swipe it until no money was left! She couldn¡¯t wait to see how wonderful her father¡¯s expression would be the moment he laid his eyes on the payment information! ¡°Oh, don¡¯t talk for now, let¡¯s leave!¡± When she saw that Luo Yang¡¯s anger was getting more and more intense, Mu Qing hastily shifted his attention. ¡°Fine, we¡¯ll take our leave first. Xixi, stay at home and don¡¯t be rebellious!¡± Luo Yang commanded. ¡°I know.¡± Luo Xi nodded in a well-behaved manner. When the time ticked off at six o¡¯clock in the afternoon, Luo Yuyi strutted back home. ¡°Sister, I¡¯m done reading your book. Let me return it to your room!¡± She said, and without waiting for Luo Xi¡¯s reply, she walked upstairs. ¡°Wait!¡± Luo Xi put down her phone. Displayed on the screen of her phone was the photo of Luo Yuyi having a big meal with her friends. Carrying her comic book while shopping? A mocking smile briefly appeared on the corner of Luo Xi¡¯s mouth. ¡°What!¡± Luo Yuyi said with some impatience. When her parents were not at home, she never bothered to be polite to Luo Xi. Every time she thinks that the two of them were born by the same mother, and she lived a miserable life for more than ten years, while Luo Xi grew up happily into a wealthy family, Luo Yuyi couldn¡¯t stop the intense hatred in her heart. Why did she become the one who was taken away back then? Why can¡¯t it be Luo Xi! ¡°Pass the book to me. I want to read it!¡± Luo Xi faintly said. ¡°What?¡± Luo Yuyi was taken aback for a while, ¡°Didn¡¯t you finish reading it a long time ago?¡± ¡°I want to read it again.¡± Luo Yuyi pursed her lips, ¡°What¡¯s so good about this book!¡± Luo Xi didn¡¯t open her mouth. She just stared at her faintly. Luo Yuyi was a little uncomfortable because of her stare, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes. Could it be that Luo Xi discovered that her card was missing? To cover up her panicked emotions, she disdainfully flung away the book, and then proceeded to walk upstairs. Luo Xi looked at the scene with a sneer plastered on the corner of her mouth. The present Luo Yuyi really didn¡¯t have the ability to control her emotions. She didn¡¯t know why she had fallen for a little trick like that back then. Just how foolish she was before? Luo Yuyi went upstairs with a brisk step. When she noticed that Luo Xi had her attention on other things, she secretly went to the door of Luo Xi¡¯s room. She stretched out her hand to open the door, but the doorknob in her hand couldn¡¯t just move! It¡¯s actually locked! Luo Xi, what does she mean by this? Luo Yuyi had a bad feeling and was secretly annoyed. Suddenly, sounds of footsteps rang out from below. She was shocked and hastily turned around to see the situation. Over there, she could see Luo Xi approaching her with a book held in her arms. She quickly acted to walk by unintentionally and said with a spoiled tone, ¡°Sister, me and my friends decided to watch movie tomorrow. Can you lend me your newly bought dress for one day?¡± Luo Xi replied with some reluctance, ¡°I plan to wear that dress after getting to the Leng¡¯s house. I haven¡¯t worn it yet¡­¡± ¡°I¡¯ll only wear it for one day, it¡¯s not a big deal. Besides, I wouldn¡¯t let the dress get dirty. I really want that dress, let me borrow it okay?¡± Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes glinted, and quickly opened her mouth to say those words. ¡°Didn¡¯t you say last time that the dress looks rustic?¡± Luo Xi fixed her eyes on her with a doubtful expression. ¡°No way, I was just joking with you at that time.¡± Luo Yuyi gnashed her teeth. At this moment, the sound of a car entering the gate sounded outside the door. Luo Yuyi was shocked. Did her parents return so quickly? What should she do now! ¡°Eldest Miss, Second Miss, someone from the Leng¡¯s family arrived!¡± At this time, a maid hurriedly ran in and informed them. Luo Xi¡¯s pupils shrank slightly. Why did the Leng family come here without any notice? This thing never happened in her previous life. At most, two days before the marriage day, someone arrived to send her clothes. CH 14 However, there are still ten days left before the wedding. How come they arrive so early? She remembers it clearly. ¡°Hey, the in-laws have visited. They probably can¡¯t come without seeing my sister!¡± Luo Yuyi finally let out a sigh of relief when she heard the maid¡¯s words. She couldn¡¯t help but gloat at the turn of events and continued to urge her, ¡°Sister, immediately open the door. Just leave the matter of getting the dress to me, I¡¯ll go inside and get it for you!¡± Whenever she thought that Luo Xi was going to get married and would become a widow soon, she couldn¡¯t stop her delighted mood. ¡°No, I¡¯ll give you the dress once I get back.¡± Luo Xi disagreed, and without taking another glance at her, turned around to leave. She didn¡¯t care about the gloomy expression that appeared on her face after she turned around. Luo Yuyi gnashed her teeth with resentment. But she soon thought of her performance and felt that it was too obvious and she couldn¡¯t allow Luo Xi to have any doubt, so after stomping her feet hatefully, she went after her. She wanted to see the person from the Leng family! Several luxury black cars with the Leng¡¯s family unique logo pasted on them stopped at the entrance of the villa. The people inside exited the car one after another carrying many gifts ranging from small to big in their hands. The moment Luo Xi stepped downstairs, she was startled by the grand scene in front of her. Those men dressed in black suits and leather shoes, coupled with white gloves on their hands, they especially gave off a gentlemanly feeling. The man in charge looked to be in his thirties. He moved his legs until he was two steps away from Luo Xi and opened his mouth with a polite smile. Saying, ¡°Miss Luo Xi, the news of your accident in the river and catching a cold just a few days ago reached our president¡¯s ear. The president couldn¡¯t come to take care of you because of his health, so he specifically chose some gifts and sent them to you. I hope we didn¡¯t disturb you.¡± Then he lifted up his hand and motioned for the people behind him. Those men who carried bags with them entered the living room. Luo Xi was a bit surprised. Gifts from Leng Minhang? How come she didn¡¯t remember that this thing had happened in her previous life? ¡°Your president¡­¡± She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say. ¡°What does Miss Luo Xi want to ask?¡± The man said in a gentlemanly way. ¡°Nothing, please tell him my thanks.¡± Luo Xi was not polite. These things had been sent to her doorstep, and now that she was Leng Minhang¡¯s fianc¨¦e, there was nothing wrong with Leng Minhang sending her some gifts or something. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll say it to the president on your behalf. We¡¯ll take our leave first.¡± Luo Xi nodded her head. Luo Yuyi, who was standing by the side, noticed that the gifts all came from big brands and her eyes turned red in jealousy! When she saw that the person from the Leng family had left, she quickly moved to unpack the gifts without caring about Luo Xi¡¯s consent. ¡°Yunxuan¡¯s limited edition bracelet, my god!¡± Upon opening the first gift, her mouth agape in shock. She picked up the bracelet and compared it with her own hand. After that, she wore the bracelet and grumbled, ¡°Sister, this bracelet looks good on me. Give it to me, you have so many gifts anyway.¡± While she was saying that, her hands were not idle. She continued to unpackaged the other gifts, and when she saw Lk¡¯s crown, she was so jealous that her mind almost turned crazy. Any one of these gifts costs at least several million dollars! This young master of the Leng family is simply too rich! If she was the one who married him, wouldn¡¯t these all belong to her? Luo Yuyi regretted her action for a while, but when she thought that the other party would soon be in a coffin, she felt more balanced in her heart. When she unpackaged a gift and saw an off-white dress similar to a wedding dress, her face twisted due to extreme jealousy. It was already good that the jewelry all came from the limited editions, but even this dress was something that even famous ladies could only wish for but can¡¯t possess. The Parisian designers personally made this dress. It was just so priceless. Just how many people were shocked by its high price, not to mention that it was the only one in the whole world! She never imagined that she would be able to see this dress for real one day! CH 15 Goodness! Luo Yuyi lifted up the dress and compared it to herself, unwilling to let go of it. At this time, Luo Yang and Mu Qing heard the news that someone from the Leng family had come to their house, and the two hastily went home. When they arrived, they saw that there were no other people except for their eldest daughter who was standing at the side wearing a complicated expression, and their youngest daughter who was holding a dress with an excited look. The couple exchanged glances, not knowing what was going on. ¡°These are?¡± Mu Qing asked in surprise. ¡°Mom, quickly look, does this dress look good on me?¡± When she heard her asking, Luo Yuyi immediately pointed to the dress in front of her and asked eagerly. ¡°It looks good, my daughter looks best in anything.¡± Mu Qing¡¯s mouth lifted into an arc when she saw her youngest having a delighted expression on her face. ¡°Then can you ask sister to give it to me? Anyway, the Leng family gifted her plenty of gifts. Giving one or two didn¡¯t make any difference.¡± Luo Yuyi spoke using a spoiled tone. ¡°What to give or not to give, the two of you are sisters. If you want to wear it, you can take it!¡± Mu Qing smiled and rubbed her head. ¡°Wait! Repeat what you said.¡± Luo Yang¡¯s focus was entirely on the Leng family. ¡°Dad, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Luo Yuyi looked at him with doubt. ¡°Who did you say these gifts come from and who is the receiver?¡± Luo Yang asked with serious expression. ¡°It¡¯s the Leng family. They told us that they heard my sister caught a cold a few days ago, and their master couldn¡¯t make it to come and take care of her, so they compensated sister with gifts!¡± ¡°You have the guts to take the Leng family¡¯s gifts to your sister!¡± Luo Yang slammed his hand on the table loudly. ¡°Husband, your words are too unpleasant to hear. Yiyi and Xixi are twin sisters, and it didn¡¯t make any difference of who uses the other, right? Why do you need to say that!¡± Mu Qing said disapprovingly. ¡°Twin sisters!¡± Luo Yang coldly snorted and proceeded to reply angrily, ¡°Who¡¯s sister will take away her own sister¡¯s card! Luo Yuyi, I didn¡¯t expect you to be like this. Not to mention the fact that you took away your sister¡¯s card, you actually swiped it wantonly! Are you thinking that your father is dead? Huh!¡± As he thought of the scene at the banquet just now, he turned furious the moment his eyes landed on the payment information sent to his phone! He called the maids at home and found that the eldest daughter was staying inside the house obediently. If the eldest daughter is at home, then who is swiping the card! Initially, he only had some doubts about Luo Yuyi taking the card away, but when he saw the payment information, he became sure. Speaking of which, he really didn¡¯t expect that his youngest daughter would turn out to be such a disgraceful and shameful thing. A child who grew up in the countryside could actually max out a card with a million in it in just one afternoon! What the hell did she do! Forget it, the card was still the family¡¯s stuff and she can still use it. Who knew that he would witness the scene of her being shameless that she even had the thoughts of laying her hands on the things the Leng family gifted to her sister. ¡°What? What do you mean?¡± Mu Qing looked at him doubtfully. ¡°Ask your good daughter what she has done!¡± Luo Yang spat out coldly. Upon hearing the word ¡®card¡¯ from her father¡¯s mouth, Luo Yuyi¡¯s expression changed quickly. When she saw her mother turning her head in her direction, she hastily shook her head sideways and defended herself, ¡°Dad, what are you saying? I don¡¯t have my sister¡¯s card on me!¡± ¡°You still have the nerve to talk back!¡± If Luo Yuyi was a son, Luo Yang would have beaten him long ago. However, not only this child was a girl, but she was also the daughter he owed for more than ten years. He couldn¡¯t possibly lift his hand to her, and became extremely disappointed in her. He assumed that the children who grew up in the countryside would be more obedient and frugal, but now it looks like he just thought too much. Luo Yuyi burst into tears, ¡°I really didn¡¯t take away my sister¡¯s card. Dad, it must be because you got it wrong. How could I possibly do such a thing? You have to believe me, dad.¡± CH 16 ¡°Believe you? Then say, where did your sister¡¯s card go? You are the only one who has entered her room today!¡± Luo Yang questioned. ¡°I¡­¡± Luo Yuyi¡¯s mind was in turmoil for real this time. She didn¡¯t stay outside for a long time and knew that her parents would go out in a while, so she purposely estimated the time. Luo Xi shouldn¡¯t have found out so quickly. But now, everything has been getting out of line from what she was expecting. Now what to do? She subconsciously put her hand on her bag. As she didn¡¯t have the time to put the card back in Luo Xi¡¯s room because of the sudden arrival of the Leng family, the card was still on her body. Her mind was in disarray. Unbeknownst to her, Luo Xi had already calculated the time and was only waiting for her to take the bait. It was a pity that she wouldn¡¯t have the chance to find out about it. ¡°Yiyi, you¡­¡± Mu Qing¡¯s expression changed upon hearing what Luo Yang had said. She thought that even if the youngest daughter took away her sister¡¯s card impulsively, it must be because she just wanted to give her a scare. However, she didn¡¯t expect that she would dare use all the money inside the card! ¡°Mom, I really didn¡¯t do it. How can you believe that I¡¯m the one who took away my sister¡¯s things just because I entered her room once? What if someone else had taken the card away? Also, maybe sister used it herself!¡± She cried and spoke in injustice. ¡°You have a point! How can your sister swipe the card at home all day today!¡± Luo Yang said sarcastically while still having a disbelieving expression. Luo Yuyi took the card away but still refused to tell the truth, but she even blamed others. ¡°Okay, okay, you¡¯re scaring the child. It¡¯s normal for a child to use some money.¡± When she saw her daughter crying with large droplets of tears flowing down on her face, Mu Qing felt sorry for her even though she knew that what she did was wrong. However, it was normal to have some misunderstandings, ¡°Besides, you earn so much money, isn¡¯t it for your children to spend? Yiyi has lived a miserable life since she was young, and now she can live without worrying about anything. Even if she indeed used a large sum of money, it¡¯s fine. It¡¯s our compensation to her!¡± Luo Yang turned flushed with anger, but he couldn¡¯t talk back after hearing Mu Qing¡¯s words. Luo Xi, who was keeping her mouth shut at the side, also said, ¡°Mom is right. After all, Yiyi had never seen so much money. It¡¯s normal for her to lose her mind for a while. I don¡¯t blame her.¡± When Mu Qing heard this, she quickly echoed, ¡°Have you heard that? Even Xixi said that she doesn¡¯t blame Yiyi.¡± ¡°She will not ask us for money. Why did she resort to taking away her sister¡¯s card? If this kind of disgraceful thing spreads out, where will I put my face! As a mother, you didn¡¯t punish her after she did such a bad thing. You even spoiled her instead!¡± Luo Yang¡¯s face turned livid. ¡°Yiyi, give the card back to me quickly. Let me see how much money is used. If it¡¯s not much, it¡¯s fine. Dad, stop being angry. It¡¯s bad for your body to be too angry.¡± Luo Xi spoke, and then moved to his side to pat him. The violent heaving of Luo Yang¡¯s chest calmed down. Luo Yuyi, who was pretending to have suffered injustice and being pitiful in her mother¡¯s arms, gnashed her teeth with hatred. She didn¡¯t know what went wrong. She initially believed that her father wouldn¡¯t be suspicious of her because he loves her very much. How come he lost his temper with her just after hearing Luo Xi¡¯s few words? She was unreconciled. Her plan of framing Luo Xi was unsuccessful, and she hurt herself instead. Now the trust she built so hard is destroyed! In the future, her parents will definitely not take her side again. On one hand, Luo Yang was furious with his youngest daughter, and on the other hand he felt guilty towards his eldest daughter. More so after the eldest daughter stood up to speak for her younger sister in this situation. She even naively assumed that Luo Yuyi just took the card to buy something. CH 17 Thinking of the card that had all of its money inside used up, Luo Yang couldn¡¯t be any more angry. He pointed at Luo Yuyi¡¯s nose and spoke, ¡°Return the card back to your sister, get the hell out of here and reflect on what you did wrong in your room, and don¡¯t eat at night! Just stay obediently in the house and wait until school begins!¡± ¡°Dad!¡± Luo Yuyi quickly became flustered upon hearing his words, ¡°I still have a party with my classmates in a few days!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t make me repeat myself!¡± Luo Yang said with a firm tone that didn¡¯t take any rebuttal. ¡°You! It¡¯s alright to punish the child, but why did you stop her from going out? If Yiyi couldn¡¯t attend the party, what would her classmates think of her? Wouldn¡¯t they think of her as a joke?¡± Mu Qing quickly stood up to speak for her daughter. Luo Yang furrowed his brows as high as a mountain. Even though he was furious, he still retained his mind, so he hesitated after hearing her words. ¡°How about we let Xixi follow her and keep an eye on her?¡± Mu Qing saw his hesitation, and she quickly proposed. ¡°Fine.¡± Luo Yang finally nodded his head after hearing what she said. His youngest daughter was spending money wantonly outside, and he was also worried about whether she was fooling around. If the well-behaved eldest daughter was at her side to keep an eye on her, he would feel less worried. ¡°Still not moving!¡± Seeing Luo Yuyi¡¯s look of dissatisfaction, he roared. Luo Yuyi stomped her feet and was about to leave, but unexpectedly, she was stopped by Luo Xi¡¯s voice. ¡°Wait.¡± ¡°What? You¡¯re still not satisfied that I¡¯m being punished!¡± Luo Yuyi really hated her to death. The party was a friends gathering one, and a lot of young masters from other rich families were there. If Luo Xi went there with her, wouldn¡¯t everyone be fascinated by her vixen face? Right! The dress! She moved her eyes around, and then turned to look at Mu Qing with a pair of pitiful eyes before saying, ¡°Mom, the party I¡¯m going to this time is very important. I heard that many wealthy children would go there, and I don¡¯t have any good clothes to wear. Can you ask sister to lend me this dress for a day?¡± She took Mu Qing¡¯s hand and shook it from side to side. The thing that Mu Qing couldn¡¯t bear the most was her little daughter acting like a baby, so when she heard her asking about it, she couldn¡¯t wait to give her all the best things. She listened to Luo Yuyi¡¯s request then turned to Luo Xi, and said in a demanding tone, ¡°Xixi, this dress, just give it to your sister. Didn¡¯t you buy a new dress some time ago? Your sister doesn¡¯t even have one, so give this to her!¡± ¡°Mom, there¡¯s also the crown and crystal high-heeled shoes. The two look like a set. If I wore both of them at the party, I will certainly stun everyone there. I want to wear the dress, let me wear it for a day. I promise to give it back to my sister.¡± Luo Yuyi opened her mouth eagerly. Luo Xi sneered. Really always thinking of how she looks! The gifts were given to her by her husband. Does she want to use them too? ¡°Xixi¡­¡± Mu Qing wanted to say something but was cut off by Luo Xi, who replied lightly, ¡°Since Yiyi has taken a fancy to the gifts my fianc¨¦ had sent, I can give you all of them, but the premise is, if you accept the gifts, you have to marry him instead of me!¡± ¡°What nonsense!¡± Hearing this, Luo Yang quickly turned anxious and shouted angrily. Mu Qing and Luo Yuyi¡¯s expressions also changed instantly. ¡°Dad! I¡¯m not talking nonsense. I see that since sister likes it very much, she must be satisfied with the young master of the Leng family. It just so happens that I¡¯m against the action of marrying as I¡¯m still young, so just let my sister go. She can also have these gifts if she does that, right?¡± Luo Xi bowed her head and spoke. ¡°No! I¡¯m not getting married!¡± Luo Yuyi yelled. ¡°Sister, the young master of the Leng family sent these gifts to his fianc¨¦. It goes without saying that whoever receives it will marry him. Otherwise, if the clothes were given to you, wouldn¡¯t I be able to explain to the people there what happened to the gifts?¡± CH 18 ¡°Should I say to him that the dress was given to my sister because she wanted to wear it? Giving someone else¡¯s gift to others will make the person who sent the gift uncomfortable! I don¡¯t want to go against people just because of this thing!¡± Luo Xi opened her mouth coldly. ¡°You! If you don¡¯t want to give it, it¡¯s because you just don¡¯t want to give it. Why are you making so many excuses? Mom, look at sister, she doesn¡¯t treat me as her own sister at all!¡± Luo Yuyi could only say that Luo Xi was being overly concerned. That man will have his life end soon, so do these little things still matter? What a joke! Mu Qing knitted her eyebrows when she heard her words and spoke, ¡°Young Master Leng is not a petty person who cares about such little things. If your sister has taken a fancy to the clothes, just hand her the clothes. Don¡¯t be ill-mannered!¡± The tone of her voice was so firm, and it was clear that she didn¡¯t take any refusal. Although it was already her second life, Luo Xi still felt cold all over her body by Mu Qing¡¯s attitude. Her eyes were dark and she didn¡¯t open her mouth. She just shrank in the direction of Luo Yang, with her head lowered, she looked very pitiful. Luo Yang¡¯s mood turned unpleasant upon seeing his wife and youngest daughter having such a tough attitude, and it made him feel bad for his eldest daughter, so he said with an unhappy tone, ¡°What to wear! Don¡¯t you know how to buy one for yourself? Have we treated you poorly that you wanted to set your hands on your sister¡¯s things!¡± Looking back now, it seemed that he loved this youngest daughter more starting from the time she returned, and it surpasses his love for the eldest daughter. He would give whatever she wanted, and now it looked like he was really too good to her, too good that it made her greedy and lawless! If it was in the past, he might have thought that these small things didn¡¯t matter because the youngest daughter was a girl after all. But now, it caused him to be disgusted without any reason. Particularly when he saw his eldest daughter being suppressed and not having the courage to talk back at all, only shrinking at his back but didn¡¯t dare to ask him for help, he couldn¡¯t stop his angry emotion. Luo Yuyi obviously noticed the dissatisfaction in her father¡¯s eyes towards her, and it caused her to be alarmed for a second. Now is really not the right opportunity to set her hands on her sister¡¯s things. After all, she had just taken away Luo Xi¡¯s card. This matter was barely resolved, and she intended to take away her things again. His father was concerned that Luo Xi would be tough and go against the idea of marriage, so he took her side like now. But if she became willful about this matter, her father might feel that she was deliberately contradicting him. She was very clear about Luo Yang¡¯s personality. He eats soft but not hard, so he doesn¡¯t like strong women. Today, she was so fascinated by those things that she almost broke her good girl persona. Even though her mother always took her side, she had no ability to affect her father¡¯s decisions. After all, her father was still the one who held the final say at home. Although she was very unreconciled in her heart, she knew that if she contradicted her father again, the future days would certainly not be good. She gnashed her teeth and spoke pitifully, ¡°Dad, I just like it so much, but it¡¯s okay if my sister doesn¡¯t want to give it. I really don¡¯t have the intention of taking away her things. I will listen to you in the future. Stop being angry.¡± Without any surprise, the moment she chose to step down, Luo Yang¡¯s expression improved a lot. He nodded and replied, ¡°It¡¯s good that you know your mistakes, let your mother buy you what you like. You can¡¯t ask for your sister¡¯s things again in the future, understand?¡± Luo Yuyi nodded in a well-behaved manner. When she saw her acting like this, Mu Qing comforted her, ¡°Mom will buy you the dress you liked for a long time tonight. It¡¯s okay, Yiyi.¡± ¡°Thanks a lot, Mom!¡± Luo Yuyi said happily, but inside she was very unwilling. How can that dress be comparable with this limited edition one! CH 19 If it was before, she would certainly have liked the dress her mother had bought for her, but now that she saw the one from the Leng family, she felt that those things were simply unbearable to look at! Even though her heart was filled with extreme unwillingness, she had no choice but to remain silent. Forget it, once Luo Xi gets married, all good things will come into her hands! As she thought of this, her mood improved a bit. Luo Xi put away the gifts, then took them back inside her room and kept them properly. Since these gifts were sent by him, she must wear them when meeting with him. She stretched out her hand and stroked the clothes. The time is ticking off slowly, if it weren¡¯t for the situation now, she really wanted to go and see him immediately. A strong longing appeared in Luo Xi¡¯s eyes for a second, then she put away the clothes and walked out of the room. ¡°You¡¯re going to wear that?¡± Luo Yuyi was dressed in an exquisite long Chanel dress, looking like a nouveau riche girl. When she saw that Luo Xi was only dressed in plain and elegant dress without no makeup, a disdainful look flashed across her eyes. ¡°Is there any problem?¡± Luo Xi lowered her head to look at her dress, which was the usual dress. Honestly, she didn¡¯t have any intention of attending this so-called party at all, but she had no choice since her mother instructed her to do so. If it was in her previous life, she would certainly not have attended this party. But she knew clearly who Luo Yuyi will meet today. It¡¯s Leng Yuan! Luo Yuyi knew very well how she had been secretly in love with this man for over a year in her previous life. So upon returning to the house, Luo Yuyi had been purposely angering her by saying how Leng Yuan had talked to her, gave her his contact information, and so on to stimulate her. At that time, she was so jealous, but on the one hand, she was restricted by the marriage, so she could only keep her mouth shut and not ask her for Leng Yuan¡¯s contact information, and then nothing happened. Due to her liking for Leng Yuan, Luo Yuyi revealed this incident, causing her to be a laughingstock of others. The incident spread so far that it reached the Leng family¡¯s ear, making her not have the courage to lift her head. Later, Luo Yuyi unknowingly hooked up with Leng Yuan. If she was not mistaken, then the two will have their first meeting at the party. Inside the school, Leng Yuan was known as the famous iceberg school grass. He was good at everything, and the object of love of the majority of female students in school. It was a pity no one would be able to guess that behind this excellent man was calculating illegitimate child. Despite the fact this man was once the object of her love, her feelings had long vanished, only leaving behind the hatred. It was his fault, together with Luo Yuyi, that her family fell! Leng Minhang was the official heir of the Leng family, and it was already good enough for Leng Yuan to be accepted as the illegitimate son. Even in her previous life, Leng Minhang never made a move towards this half-brother of his. But those things didn¡¯t matter as Leng Yuan manipulated her to get what he wanted! In this life, she will never give this man an opportunity! Her eyes turned bottomless and dark, but the glamorously dressed Luo Yuyi beside her didn¡¯t notice it. ¡°Oh, no problem. Let¡¯s go.¡± Luo Yuyi opened her mouth and a disgusted look flashed in her eyes. She¡¯ll just wait for Luo Xi to make a fool of herself! Dad loves to save face the most. If he got to know the news that Luo Xi lost face outside, he will probably die of anger! When she thought of that scene, a victorious smile uncontrollably appeared on Luo Yuyi¡¯s mouth. The two arrived at the entrance of the school and got off the car. After that, Luo Yuyi instructed the driver to go back. It didn¡¯t take long for them to wait as a convertible car drove over. The man who was driving had sunglasses on. From his young appearance, his age was about twenty. Luo Xi quickly recognized him. He was the boyfriend of Luo Yuyi¡¯s best friend Ning Mengmeng, named Yang Feng. CH 20 And the cute girl dressed in a pink-colored lolita dress was none other than Ning Mengmeng. Maybe she intended to match her outfit more, so she purposely put the makeup on her face a little thick. When her eyes landed on Luo Xi who was behind Luo Yuyi, her expression changed, and a disgusted expression involuntarily appeared on her face, saying, ¡°Yiyi, why did you take her with you?¡± After letting out those words, her eyes looked at Luo Xi up and down, and she became more even disdainful when she saw how plainly she was dressed. All of them were classmates in the same section. When the school belle selection happened in school, a lot of good-looking female students in the whole school joined it. It¡¯s just that no one expected that Luo Xi would take the first spot just because someone secretly took a picture of her and posted it on the internet. Occupying the top position, it was unknown how many people were unreconciled with it. Ning Mengmeng was also one of the candidates at that time, and it took her a lot of effort just to be included in the top few spots. As a result, Luo Xi occupied the first spot using her pretty face, so it was not surprising that a lot of people were very unwilling to see the results. However, she herself was also good-looking and had an extremely dainty appearance, so even when she was dressed in uniform, she could amaze everyone within a few seconds. So she also won the title of the most beautiful school belle! ¡°I can¡¯t help it, mom made a decision to let her come with me.¡± Luo Yuyi said and a helpless expression appeared on her face. ¡°Isn¡¯t it just because she wanted to come that she asked your mother to take her with you? So thick-skinned?¡± Ning Mengmeng opened her mouth and spoke with a touch of irony. ¡°Don¡¯t say that. She was, after all, my sister, and also the one who would get married soon. It¡¯s just right for mom to let her come with me to see the outside world. She couldn¡¯t just marry in the future, and embarrass our family, right?¡± Luo Yuyi replied, looking like she was very concerned about Luo Xi¡¯s well-being. ¡°Brother Feng, look, this is the school belle Luo Xi was about to get married. Didn¡¯t you tell me before that you wanted to meet her?¡± Ning Mengmeng talked to her boyfriend Yang Feng. Yang Feng removed his sunglasses, and threw a glance at Luo Xi. His glance was frivolous, ¡°Her appearance seemed decent enough, but her figure was especially bad, no curves at all. I had no interest in women like her.¡± ¡°Oh, you¡¯re so bad. How can you comment like that about a woman¡¯s appearance? It¡¯s really shocking. Student Luo Xi, please don¡¯t mind him. His temper is really like that, straightforward, and he didn¡¯t mean what he said. Don¡¯t think too much about it, alright?¡± She chided Yang Feng, then turned to look at Luo Xi and said in an apologetic tone. ¡°Oh? You don¡¯t have to worry about it. I won¡¯t bother with bad-looking people.¡± Luo Xi lifted her eyebrows, her appearance showed her uncaring attitude towards her words. ¡°Repeat what you said!¡± Yang Feng pricked his ears, almost doubting whether his ears played a trick on him. Although he was not the most good-looking man there, he was also considered a first-class handsome man. Just where did this Luo Xi get the courage to call him ugly? ¡°Ah! I¡¯m sorry!¡± Luo Xi seemed to realize how wrong her words were and she hastily apologized to him. ¡°I also have a straightforward temper, I didn¡¯t mean my words. Don¡¯t mind it too much.¡± ¡°You!¡± She said the exact words to him. Don¡¯t mention Yang Feng himself felt, any man wouldn¡¯t be able to endure it if a girl called him ugly! Even Ning Mengmeng¡¯s face turned dark, similar to the bottom of the pot! ¡°Sister! What nonsense are you saying!¡± Luo Yuyi scolded in an angry tone. ¡°I¡¯m really sorry, you two, I¡¯m accustomed to using the tone the others used to talk to me, and I did that all the time. Although it may be a little unpleasant, I never said false words. I accidentally said some honest words, are you alright?¡± Yang Feng¡¯s complexion was now green. This Luo Xi did it purposely, doesn¡¯t she! CH 21 Just looking at her honest face, Yang Feng really wondered if his appearance was really that ugly! This sudden thought caused his face to slowly sink and darken. At this moment, a few more girls arrived at their side. All of them were from the same group who had a good relationship with Luo Yuyi. When they saw Luo Xi, their expressions were exactly the same as Ning Mengmeng¡¯s. Everyone of them were dressed like they were attending a blind date. ¡°Where are the others? There is only one car, how can we leave?¡± A girl voiced out softly. Ning Mengmeng heard this and also asked Yang Feng who was beside her. ¡°Didn¡¯t you tell me before that your good friends and others would come? The party will begin in a while.¡± The party that they were going to attend this time was a party held by the joint efforts of various schools online, with the purpose of socializing and getting in touch with the people from high society. ¡°Let me check it.¡± Yang Feng furrowed his brows and was about to pull his phone out to make a call when a black luxury car suddenly stopped in front of them. ¡°Wow, a Rolls-Royce car!¡± The girls yelled upon seeing the car. ¡°Zhou Yu, Leng Yuan, you two have finally arrived. I thought you were going to let me go alone!¡± When his eyes landed on the familiar car, Yang Feng laughed. The car window slowly opened, revealing the faces of the two people inside. The man who was occupying the driver¡¯s seat also had sunglasses on. He had an immature face, coupled with that naughty smile plastered on his mouth. Sitting in the co-pilot seat was the iceberg school grass dressed in dark clothes, Leng Yuan. He possessed a pair of eyes that were narrow and slightly raised at the end, a high nose bridge, and a side angle with prominent features. Just looking at him makes people feel fascinated. Additionally, he had a tall figure measuring about 1.8 meters, had six-pack abs, and was excellent at basketball, which added to his masculinity and charm. There was almost no girl who didn¡¯t like this kind of ascetic man. Leng Yuan was similar to Leng Minhang by three points. Before, Luo Xi assumed that Leng Yuan was the most good-looking man she had ever seen, but after seeing Leng Minhang, she finally knew that meaning of the word best in the world. An iceberg boy like Leng Yuan was instantly reduced to nothing when placed beside Leng Minhang. It¡¯s just that no matter what, he was still the iceberg school grass, so high and cold. Normal people simply didn¡¯t have a way to get in touch with him at all. Not to mention the fact that he was also the president of the student union. It was also because of this why Yang Feng became his good friend, since Yang Feng is also a member of the student union, and a vice president at that. The relationship between the two could be said as not too bad. As the man who had an immature or baby face, his name was Zhou Yu, also known as the youngest young master of the big Zhou family. Coming from a wealthy family, this Rolls-Royce car is said to cost more than five million yuan. This car was given to him by his family on his eighteenth birthday and was also his previous baby. He rarely used it, and only drove it to special gatherings. As of why Luo Xi knows these things very well, it was because after getting married to Leng Minhang in her previous life, she asked him to allow her to study again. Although coming back to school to study again had become a joke, she still wished to finish her studies. From the moment she got to know of Leng Yuan¡¯s identity and his relationship with the Leng family at the Leng¡¯s house, this man who used to not pay attention to her began to do some ambiguous things to her at school, so much that Feng Yang and Zhou Yu scolded her as a vixen, spouting nonsense like how she went back to school to seduce people after getting married, and so on. So she still had some knowledge about these two people. Anyway, these two are definitely not good people. The three of them are known as one of the first-class men in school, and Zhou Yu even has the title of ¡®Cute Little Prince¡¯ in school. CH 22 As soon as they saw the two, several girls yelled eagerly, ¡°Ah! It is indeed the iceberg school grass and the little prince! We see it right, did we?¡± ¡°Of course, quickly move and enter the car, otherwise we will be late.¡± Ning Mengmeng smugly opened her mouth. After all, it was all because of her that these people had the chance to attend the party! Four girls have come here just now, totalling six people, including Luo Yuyi and Luo Xi. Two cars, one convertible and a Rolls-Royce, were enough for them if they made an effort to stay in a camp space. Everyone has the intention of sitting inside the little prince¡¯s Rolls-Royce car. Who wouldn¡¯t want a car that looked luxurious? However, it was as if Zhou Yu could see through their thoughts with one look, and he said leisurely, ¡°Let me say it first, I dislike overcrowded places. It¡¯s up for you all to decide, but I only allowed two people to get in my car.¡± ¡°Ah, we can only take three at most here.¡± Ning Mengmeng spoke with a troubled expression. ¡°It¡¯s none of my business,¡± Zhou Yu replied with a firm tone that didn¡¯t take any refusal. It was Luo Yuyi who moved first in his direction and asked shyly with a slightly flushed face, ¡°Senior Zhou, Senior Leng, can I go with you in the car?¡± Zhou Yu threw a glance at her and instantly recognized her. After all, she was a good friend of his brother¡¯s girlfriend. He agreed lightly, ¡°Junior Yiyi is too polite, it¡¯s an honor for me that you are willing to get in my car.¡± He said in a gentlemanly way. The few girls other than Luo Yuyi looked at the scene enviously, and immediately followed suit. In the end, Zhou Yu agreed to let another girl who had a good relationship with Luo Yuyi in the car. As for Luo Xi, everyone ignored her the whole time. At this time, Zhou Yu seemed to notice Luo Xi who was dressed uniquely ordinary. As soon as he fixed his eyes on her face, he felt a familiar feeling, but he couldn¡¯t pinpoint it exactly. But with such a beautiful girl, there was no way that he would forget her after laying his eyes on her. So he inquired, ¡°Who is this classmate?¡± ¡°She¡¯s Luo Xi, Yiyi¡¯s sister, and also the school belle of our school who was about to get married. Don¡¯t you know her, little prince?¡± The girl standing outside the car laughed and gloated. ¡°Oh?¡± A touch of surprise appeared for a second in Zhou Yu¡¯s eyes, ¡°She¡¯s going to get married?¡± ¡°You don¡¯t know, but although it looks like a joyous event, I¡¯m afraid that the fate that is only awaiting her is to become a widow.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t it true that she was only wasting her pretty face by marrying a man who will soon die?¡± ¡°Tsk, I heard that he is very wealthy. Ah, after getting married, it is possible that she will become a rich wife in the future.¡± After letting out those words, several girls laughed contemptuously. Upon hearing what they said, Leng Yuan, who had been looking at his phone with an expressionless face the whole time, unexpectedly lifted his head and squinted his eyes at Luo Xi¡¯s direction. Luo Xi sensed his gaze in the same second, and glanced back at him with some disgust before withdrawing her look. Although the disgust only appeared for an extremely short time, Leng Yuan still caught it. That disgusted look, does this woman know him? If not, why could she have that expression just now? Leng Yuan was slightly stunned for a while, then frowned before looking away. ¡°I see that you¡¯re in an unfavorable situation, little beauty. How about you follow this young master? I am also wealthy, and not only can I give lots of money, but I can also give you sexual happiness!¡± Came Zhou Yu again. He specifically said the word sexual in a firm tone, but even though he said this half-jokingly and half-seriously, it made people who listened to it not feel uncomfortable. Everyone gloated at Luo Xi. ¡°Sorry, my taste isn¡¯t that bad.¡± Luo Xi spoke sarcastically, her mouth curled, forming a smile. CH 23 ¡°You!¡± Being looked up and down by her with that sharp gaze full of naked disgust caused Zhou Yu¡¯s face to sink. ¡°Or perhaps you are thinking that with your appearance, it is my honor to be noticed by you?¡± Luo Xi snorted, ¡°It looked after being called a prince for a long time, you really treat yourself as a prince. Don¡¯t you think so? Tsk, tsk.¡± Her last two words were particularly unpleasant to hear and implied a deeper meaning. ¡°Just who do you think you are? You even have the guts to talk to the prince like that!¡± When they saw how Zhou Yu¡¯s face turned dark, the three girls standing beside him quickly felt unreconciled and turned to scold Luo Xi. Luo Xi squinted her eyes, hiding a menacing glint in her eyes, ¡°Then who do you guys think you are?¡± Do they think that she is easily bullied and did not know how to fight back like in her previous life? Luo Xi sneered. She can pretend to be a well-behaved daughter in Luo¡¯s house. After all, that trick works there. But when encountering a group of bullying dogs outside, is there still any need to pretend? ¡°You!¡± The three girls were stunned for a moment before reacting quickly. Their faces turned flushed with anger as they shot her a sharp look. ¡°Interesting!¡± Yang Feng whistled. Obviously, his interest was awakened by Luo Xi¡¯s courageous appearance. Zhou Yu¡¯s expression looked extremely bad. The thing that he dislikes the most is when people talk about his appearance, but the other party is a girl, so he couldn¡¯t do anything about it. Moreover, seeing someone as beautiful as Luo Xi was something that he could encounter every day, and he felt that it was normal to be fascinated by her. However, his mood still remained upset by what she said. ¡°I don¡¯t care about you! Let¡¯s go!¡± Zhou Yu spoke and started the car. The three girls saw this and gloated at Luo Xi for a while before rushing inside Yang Feng¡¯s car. Luo Yuyi said with an apologetic expression, ¡°This, sister, I¡¯m really sorry. You also know that this car is not mine, and hence, cannot make the final decision. Right, you can take the bus. I¡¯ll send you the address in a while.¡± The remaining people looked at her contemptuously. Zhou Yu sneered, ¡°If you were this little master¡¯s lover, I might give it some thought and let you get in the car, what do you think? To tell you the truth, I haven¡¯t played with a school belle yet.¡± His nature has always been arrogant, and after leaving the house, he became even more uncontrollable. In addition Luo Xi¡¯s angered him, so the words from his mouth were becoming more and more unscrupulous. ¡°Senior Zhou, please don¡¯t make fun of my sister. She is pampered by our parents at the house, so the way she speaks was done without thinking. Please don¡¯t mind her.¡± Luo Yuyi said helplessly. After that, she turned her attention to Luo Xi and spoke with a disapproving tone, ¡°Sister, didn¡¯t I warn you before that we are not at the house? You really have the courage to say anything you want, and are not at all scared of offending anyone. Say sorry to Senior Zhou now!¡± ¡°Say sorry for what?¡± Luo Xi tilted her head and asked doubtfully, ¡°Are you trying to say that I should say false words against my conscience? Dad taught us to be honest and kind. Sister, have you forgotten all of this?¡± ¡°Pfft!¡± Yang Feng laughed loudly. He initially assumed that he had greatly lost face to this woman, but after hearing her words now and seeing his brother¡¯s face that looked like the bottom of the pot, it looked like this woman was still polite to him. His eyes landed on his brother¡¯s expression, and he finally felt more balanced in his heart. ¡°Say, what is the point of fighting with the other family¡¯s daughter? We are all classmates at the same school. It¡¯s nothing big to give her a ride, right?¡± He coughed and advised. Zhou Yu snorted coldly. Although his mood was still upset, leaving a girl here was not something a person like him would do, so he rudely said to Luo Xi, ¡°Hear that? Give my brother some face and quickly get in the car.¡± CH 24 Luo Xi was too lazy to care about him, rolled her eyes and turned around to leave. ¡°You, what the hell do you mean by that?¡± When Zhou Yu has ever been treated like this? His face turned green and he yelled furiously. The other people looked at this scene in blank dismay. The girl sitting next to Luo Yuyi said disapprovingly, ¡°Senior Zhou, just leave her alone. She¡¯s just so shameless, who does she think she is!¡± ¡°Senior Zhou, I¡¯m really sorry. My sister¡¯s character is not very good, and she likes to offend people, so I apologize to you on her behalf.¡± Luo Yuyi opened her mouth and said apologetically. ¡°Yiyi, why are you saying sorry on her behalf? If I have a sister like her who only knows how to attract troubles, I won¡¯t be good to her. It just makes me ashamed to death. Besides, didn¡¯t Senior Zhou already tell her to get in the car? It was she herself who didn¡¯t want to do it. Let¡¯s go, just leave her to squeeze on the bus. Cut, let¡¯s see if she doesn¡¯t regret it to death!¡± The girl said smugly. ¡°Stop saying that. She was after all my big sister.¡± Luo Yuyi said, as a struggling expression appeared on her face. ¡°You¡¯re so kind-hearted.¡± The girl sighed. ¡°Luo Xi, I¡¯ll give you one last chance!¡± Zhou Yu squinted his eyes and spoke menacingly. Everyone looked at Luo Xi with dissatisfaction. ¡°She still let Senior Zhou invite her again and again. Who does she think she is?¡± ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Seeing that her footsteps didn¡¯t even pause for a moment, Zhou Yu was so angry that he slapped the steering wheel, causing the car to let out an ear-piercing beep sound. Just then, a black limousine stopped in front of Luo Xi without any notice. Then a man dressed in a black suit who looked elegant and noble stepped down from the driver¡¯s seat. ¡°Eh? Who is that?¡± The crowd stared at the scene with surprised expressions. As soon as Luo Yuyi saw that person, her brows furrowed. Wasn¡¯t he the man who delivered the gifts sent by the young master of the Leng family to Luo Xi that day? ¡°Miss Luo Xi, our president heard that you are going to a party, so he specially instructed me to pick you up.¡± The man put one arm on top of his chest and bowed slightly before removing his arm to gesture to her as an invitation. ¡°Oh my god, he¡¯s so handsome!¡± One of the girls couldn¡¯t help but scream excitedly. The noble aura of an aristocrat butler on this man who had just arrived was too attractive. They were far away, so they couldn¡¯t hear the contents of their conversation clearly, but judging from that man¡¯s posture, it was as if he was inviting Luo Xi to get in the car, and he was respectful to her. They couldn¡¯t help but get startled. The Luo family is not by any means a true wealthy family. At most, they could be considered to own a company and don¡¯t lack any money. But it was obvious with one look that this man was not simple, and there was no way that a small family like the Luo family could afford him. The girls were all fascinated by his handsome temperament, but Zhou Yu and the other boys stared at the car with blank expressions. A limited edition Maybach, a luxury car that costs more than fifty million yuan. After looking at it once, Zhou Yu, who had a deep love for luxury cars, quickly determined the brand and price of the car. A luxury car that cost more than fifty million yuan just picked up this woman Luo Xi? Just what exactly is her identity in the end? There was only a single person present who reacted differently. He looked in the direction of the car with unfathomable eyes. If he was just doubtful before, now Leng Yuan was certain that this woman Luo Xi was the one who was going to marry his brother! A glint appeared in his eyes for a brief moment, and he quickly withdrew his eyes. ¡°Yiyi, what¡¯s going on? Is that man your housekeeper? He looks gentlemanly! I recalled that this person was not the one who usually came to pick you up before. And that car, it¡¯s obvious that it¡¯s expensive with just one look. Your dad really treats you well!¡± The girl on the side asked with some jealousy. CH 25 Pressing her teeth against her lip, Luo Yuyi replied with some unwillingness in her heart ¡°The car is from the man my sister is going to marry. It¡¯s not from our family.¡± ¡°What! Then this man, is he¡­¡± The girl fixed her eyes on the man who resembled a vampire butler in novels and said with some jealousy. ¡°No, how could that be? This person is the housekeeper of that man¡¯s family, okay? I heard that he is extremely angry, so why would he come personally to pick up my sister? Besides, I also heard that the other party has a terrible character and even killed someone. It¡¯s really frightening, my sister is really pitiful to marry such a man.¡± ¡°If what you said is right, then your sister is very miserable. Is it because the man¡¯s family is rich, so she doesn¡¯t mind marrying him and becoming a widow? She¡¯s willing to do that kind of thing. Just what happened to the head of girls nowadays?¡± The girl still felt jealous and spoke in a disgusted tone. ¡°Who knows? My parents also tried to persuade my sister, but she¡¯s very firm in her decision to marry. What can I do? Perhaps she thinks that studying is too boring?¡± Luo Yuyi replied helplessly. ¡°It¡¯s the first time I¡¯ve seen a person like her.¡± ¡°In that case, then let¡¯s go!¡± Yang Feng said with some regret. Just now, he thought that this girl was pretty interesting, but now he was told off that she was getting married. He shook his head and started the car. Meanwhile, Luo Xi was shocked that Leng Minhang knew her itinerary this time, but she didn¡¯t refuse and got in the car. She also recognized this man although she didn¡¯t see him very often. He was not Leng Minhang¡¯s housekeeper, but instead Leng Minhang¡¯s assistant called Xu Guan. Although she had never been to Leng Minhang¡¯s company, and hence, didn¡¯t meet him often in her previous life, she still knew him since he would sometimes deliver some things to her. Additionally, this person was very loyal to Leng Minhang. When Leng Minhang got into an accident, he was the only one who remained at his side and did not leave him. He also comforted her several times and advised her not to worry too much as everything would be alright. It was a pity that she didn¡¯t appreciate it at that time. She hopelessly believed in Luo Yuyi just because of her few words, otherwise her fate shouldn¡¯t be being tortured until she died. When she met Leng Minhang in her previous life, it was a long time after the marriage was done, but she didn¡¯t expect that she would be able to see him soon in this life. It looked like a lot of things had changed with her coming back to the past. After all, before getting married, Leng Minhang didn¡¯t pay any heed to her at all. Luo Xi looked at the ground, a glint constantly flashed at the bottom of her eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking. Sure enough, Luo Yuyi never intended to give her the address from the very start. But it seemed that Assistant Xu knew that location beforehand and directly drove to a high-end club. Luo Xi got out of the car, and threw a look at the place called ¡®Night Charm Club¡¯, and frowned. She recognized this place. This was a famous meeting place, and an unwritten rule was known there, that is, everyone who will attend the party must wear a mask and cannot reveal their faces. And those who will attend the party must have an invitation letter in hand. Luo Yuyi and the others must have it with them, but she, Luo Xiao, didn¡¯t. She couldn¡¯t get in at all if she didn¡¯t have an invitation letter. Her eyebrows knitted. Even though she didn¡¯t have a tiny bit of interest in entering this kind of place, she still wanted to see who Luo Yuyi would meet inside. In her previous life, after Luo Yuyi went back to the house from the party, a lot of wealthy men reached out to her. Her parents assumed that she might marry into a wealthy family in the future, which is very beneficial to the family¡¯s business, so they started to train her seriously. As such, before Luo Yuyi could even graduate, their father took her to various business gatherings and made a name for herself, which became the reason for her prosperous life later on. CH 26 On the other hand, although she became a rich wife, she was always silent, staying at the house obediently, and doing nothing. Over time, people almost forgot that she, Luo Xi, existed. It was as if he noticed her concern, Assistant Xu stretched out his hand and passed an invitation letter to her, saying with a slight smile, ¡°Miss Luo Xi, this is the invitation letter for you prepared by our president in advance.¡± Surprise flickered in Luo Xi¡¯s eyes, and she received the invitation letter from his hand, ¡°He, why did he¡­¡± Why did Leng Minhang arrange everything in advance? Did he know that she was going to come here beforehand? But the trip this time to the party was only known to the family members. Just how did he know it? When he saw her frowning appearance, Assistant Xu guessed what she was thinking and explained, ¡°Miss Luo Xi, don¡¯t dwell too much about it. Our president didn¡¯t have the intention of secretly keeping an eye on you, he just did this to get to know you.¡± Assistant Xu had heard before that this woman would choose to die rather than to marry his boss. Just by this thing alone showed how she didn¡¯t like his boss. If she got to know that his boss was investigating her in secret, he was afraid that she will get angry and will become even more dissatisfied with the boss, in which he couldn¡¯t let happen. After all, his boss treats this little wife kindly. On the other side, Luo Xi simply didn¡¯t think in that way. Leng Minhang cared about her, and she was so happy that she couldn¡¯t be careless about being angry. But there¡¯s nothing wrong with Assistant Xu¡¯s thinking since the image of her in everyone¡¯s mind was still the Luo Xi who swore not to get married. ¡°I see, please say thanks on my behalf to your president.¡± Luo Xi said. Assistant Xu nodded and turned to leave. On the twelfth floor of Night Charm Club, a grand event was currently happening. It wasn¡¯t surprising though since all the representative students of all the schools in Yun City came here. A large percent of the people who attended the party had certain backgrounds behind them, and they were relatively famous figures from various schools. Of course, there¡¯s also the dance partners, or escort or muse that they take with them. Without their school uniforms on and after wearing suits and leather shoes, there was simply no way that a person could guess that they were all just a group of college students. Everyone had a certain animal mask on their faces. Some of the masks were lions, white tigers, black eagles, jackals, and the rest are other common animals. The staff inside are assigned with the task of distributing the masks to the guests. Rabbit masks are the masks the waiters normally wear, and black cars for the ordinary guests. Those who had a little superior identity were given the white tiger masks, while black Panthers and jackals to those who even had a more superior identity. The animal on the mask differs according to the influence of the person. It was circulated outside that beast masks cost a lot, and some people even bought them with the purpose of collecting them. Night Charm Club used this way to let everyone aware of the identity a person had in the party, a chance to let those people who want to cling on to wealthy families, and also to let them know the guests who can¡¯t be offended and can. Outside people heard that the highest level of mask a person saw was the lion mask, but no one could catch a glimpse of the truly superior one. After Luo Xi got inside, she unexpectedly met Luo Yuyi and others who were waiting in line to enter the door. Stepping a foot in this place with deep background, even the arrogant young master of the Zhou family, Zhou Yu, had no choice but to curb his temper. A lot of people could be seen here, with two entrances available and lots of people waiting in lines. The atmosphere around was very solemn and only the sounds of people talking softly with each other in an orderly way could be heard. The words ¡°Ye Mei Club¡± were flickering against the golden gate, causing people¡¯s hearts to skip a beat. ¡°Hey, I saw your sister!¡± Ning Mengmeng was currently taking pictures of herself one after another on her phone. After noticing Luo Xi who was behind Luo Yuyi, she talked to Luo Yuyi, and then purposely bumped her shoulders with Luo Xi who was walking over. CH 27 Her voice was not particularly loud, but the people around approached and clustered in groups. It was obvious that they heard her voice, and had their attention on them. ¡°Sister, you have finally arrived. You made us wait for so long. Come here quickly, I already reserve a place for you.¡± As soon as Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes landed on Luo Xi, her eyes darkened. She did not send her the address of this place, so how could she come here? Did she get it from a man? Perhaps she planned it long ago! But in the next second, her mouth lifted into a smile and she called out enthusiastically. ¡°What are you people trying to do by not following the rules on waiting in line? The people at the front are already enough! Are you deliberately offending us?¡± The people standing behind the line became dissatisfied. The people in the present scene were all young masters and young misses of wealthy families. In normal times, they are given priority treatment wherever they go. It¡¯s already enough that they had to wait in line, but some people even wanted to go to the front. It¡¯s no wonder that they quickly voiced out various complaints. ¡°They¡¯re right. Yiyi, she had just arrived and many people were waiting in line. How is she deserving of getting a place in line!¡± Ning Mengmeng said with dissatisfaction. A struggling expression appeared on Luo Yuyi¡¯s face, ¡°Yes but she didn¡¯t have an invitation letter in hand. Without us by her side, she wouldn¡¯t be allowed to enter. My mom instructed me to take her with me. If I leave her alone outside, mom and dad will surely get angry with me.¡± ¡°God! What¡¯s wrong with your parents? They¡¯re so biased towards your sister. Isn¡¯t she your own sister? Can she still go as far as to go back and complain? That¡¯s too vicious considering your relationship as sisters!¡± The other girls spoke. Luo Yuyi but her lips, and showed a helpless expression saying, ¡°It¡¯s not hidden from you guys that I was taken away when I was a baby, and it¡¯s only two years since I returned. My sister grew up with my parents and there¡¯s nothing wrong with them preferring her a little more over me. After all, they had a deep relationship.¡± The people in the surroundings heard this and a feeling of pity involuntarily sprouted in their hearts. Goodness! This girl, who should be living the wealthy and careless life of a rich daughter, has to live poorly for more than ten years just because of the accident that happened many years ago. It was inevitable that a bitter feeling would appear in her heart. She was expecting that she would be given a lot of attention and compensated once she returned home, but instead, she met such a vicious sister. Now the image of Luo Xi in everyone¡¯s mind has turned even more bad. ¡°You¡¯re too kind to her. Look, she doesn¡¯t feel grateful for you at all.¡± When Ning Mengmeng noticed that Luo Xi walked silently to the end of the line, she inwardly muttered ¡®at least you know what you¡¯re doing¡¯, but she still said to Luo Yuyi that she was too kind outside. Luo Yuyi looked at Luo Xi with a disappointed face. The expression of the two sisters could be described as the former being worried, while the latter being indifferent and unmoved. When placed together, Luo Xi has become the vicious sister. Everyone¡¯s bad feelings about Luo Xi increased. Ning Mengmeng mocked, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, your sister is likely not aware of the rules here. If she can¡¯t enter later, she will naturally come to you.¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± The other girls also looked like they were waiting to see a joke. The boys remained silent. The situation right now made it hard for them to say anything. The surrounding people fixed their eyes on Luo Xi. Although she looked out of place with her ordinary dress in stark contrast to the girls who were all dressed beautifully, this led her to become a little green among the thousands of flowers, eye-catching and making the eyes around follow her figure subconsciously. Another reason is because she looked comfortable and not pretentious. Despite the fact that she is dressed in a bland way, her looks were top-notch. Even though not dressed beautifully, it was sufficient to make those girls who had thick makeup pale in comparison. ¡°Beautiful lady, you didn¡¯t have someone with you?¡± At this time, another group of people wearing extraordinary clothes arrived. Their group consisted of three men and two women. The man who was in the lead had his hair combed meticulously. He was dressed in knight attire and British shoes. His features were handsome, looking like he had some foreign blood. CH 28 He was followed by two men about twenty years old and they both dressed in a handsome way. One is elegant, and the other is cute. The two girls also looked young, dressed in pink-colored dresses, looking exquisite and delicate. They were looking at Luo Xi with curiosity, looking a bit surprised with their eyes glued on Luo Xi¡¯s attire. Furthermore, it was clear that Luo Xi didn¡¯t have anyone with her, and the people around were gossiping and laughing, that¡¯s why the young man took the initiative to ask her curiously. Luo Xi shook her head, ¡°No, I came with them.¡± She pointed her finger to Luo Yuyi and others who were talking and laughing in front of her. ¡°Then how come you¡¯re not standing with them?¡± Inquired by the leading man. ¡°I arrived late, and it¡¯s not good to jump in line,¡± Luo Xi replied lightly. Surprise appeared in the eyes of several people when they heard her words. For them, even if a friend came late, they would not let her stand behind alone. Then they proceeded to fix their eyes on the few people who were joking and laughing and didn¡¯t look at Luo Xi at all. A disdainful look appeared in their eyes for a moment. Such friends are not worthy of friendship. However, it¡¯s not a good idea to say it in front of Luo Xi in case she became sad, so the leading man who was dressed in gentlemanly clothes changed the topic and said, ¡°So that¡¯s the case. By the way, you should be a college student, right? We are the student representatives of the school Su Ying University.¡± ¡°I¡¯m a junior and also the deputy president of the student council. You can call me Su Xun. Then this is the president of our student council, Long Mofang, and student council assistant, Yu Jia.¡± His finger pointed to the other two men and introduced them: ¡°We are juniors except the president, who is a senior.¡± Saying so, he blinked at Luo Xi. Luo Xi observed the movements of his hands and turned to look at the people he pointed to. The young man called Ling Mofeng, who was the president of the student council of Su Ying University, was dressed in a soft and elegant suit, very tall and seemingly having the atmosphere of a noble man with a somewhat calm air. The other one named Yu Jia looked lovely, with big doe eyes and white canine teeth every time she smiles. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She didn¡¯t expect that she would meet these students of the No. 1 noble university in Yun City, which was also included in the top ten universities in the whole world. Furthermore, all of them even had the identities of high-ranking members of the student council. The school she was attending could only be ranked fifth in Yun City. Her father loves to save face the most. Although the tuition fees were high, he still held onto his decision and spent hefty money to enroll her and Luo Yuyi there. It¡¯s already hard to be able to ranked fifth, not to mention Su Ying, who is ranked first. ¡°These two girls are our junior female students and members of the student council. It just so happens that very few people are in the student council, and only a small percentage of members are female. There are three men here, but only two have partners.¡± The leading man named Su Xun looked at her with a helpless expression. ¡°Right, young lady, what is your name?¡± He questioned curiously. ¡°My name is Luo Xi, an ordinary student from Yun Meng University¡­¡± Luo Xi looked at the surprised reaction of the surrounding people and replied. A girl who had a cute appearance was surprised, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that only students from the student council were invited?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense, other people can also attend as partners.¡± Sun Xun glared at the girl and said. The girl bowed her head in embarrassment. She was afraid that Luo Xi would think that she was deliberately targeting her by saying that she did not come from the student council and shouldn¡¯t attend. ¡°She has no malicious intent.¡± Su Xun smiled and opened his mouth. ¡°It¡¯s alright.¡± Luo Xi shook her head, looking unconcerned. Soon, Luo Yuyi¡¯s group finally arrived at the front. After registering their identity information, the staff assigned them their masks. CH 29 Luo Yuyi frowned when her eyes landed on the sinister snake-shaped mask assigned to her, ¡°This, this is too ugly!¡± ¡°What are you saying? If they hear what you said, you will definitely be driven out.¡± Ning Mengmeng hastily blocked her mouth and spoke. The boss behind this Night Charm Club was said to be very mysterious and powerful. Although no one knows what his identity is, they know that they must not go against him! It is circulated outside that one of the young masters of the four major families used to create trouble here and threatened to ruin this club. As a consequence, that young master¡¯s company was blown up to pieces the next day, and it was completely destroyed overnight. The loss was huge and it was so tragic. The only clue left at the scene was the white jade fox mask. No one can stop their thoughts from running wild. A guess that this unfortunate event happened because of the young master¡¯s harsh words in Night Charm Club, and ended up offending the boss behind it was made. Furthermore, despite the fact that gossips pointed to the Night Charm as the one who did it, Night Charm Club was not the least affected until now. Even a person from the four major families was unable to shake that place, which is sufficient to show how powerful the forces behind the boss are. From then on, no one had the courage to be arrogant in this place anymore. That¡¯s why every person who would come here must know the rules first. Luo Yuyi¡¯s face turned black. She was dressed similar to Snow White, looking very beautiful like a white swan, but she was given a sinister and ugly snake mask! How could she tolerate it? She looked at Ning Mengmeng¡¯s cute cat mask, and felt even worse. The other girls also got masks that were either cats or cute bears. Why was she the only one who was given a snake mask? What a bad luck! ¡°It is said that beast masks are very valuable. Although it looks slightly unpleasant, it¡¯s still considered a beast mask!¡± Ning Mengmeng saw her bad expression, and comforted her. Upon hearing her words, Luo Yuyi instantly wanted to curse. What¡¯s the use of being valuable? If she really wore it in front of so many people, no one would be willing to come into contact with such a disgusting masked person! She plans to make friends with wealthy children, so how can she do it like this? ¡°How about you wait for your sister to arrive and exchange masks with her?¡± Ning Mengmeng thought of an idea. A word woke up the dreamer. Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes brightened instantly after hearing her suggestion. Right, how come she didn¡¯t think of that? And Luo Xi, that fool, would definitely agree! As she thought of this, she felt extremely thankful that her mother instructed her to bring Luo Xi here. If Luo Xi hadn¡¯t come here, she would have been in an unfavorable situation. She turned her body around and saw there was only one person left before Luo Xi could get to the front. She hastily said to Zhou Yu and the others, ¡°Let¡¯s wait for my sister, she can¡¯t enter without an invitation letter.¡± The boys looked at each other and didn¡¯t speak. Anyway, it¡¯s really not good to leave a girl there, although Zhou Yu was still upset with Luo Xi¡¯s chilling attitude towards him before. Before long, it was now Luo Xi¡¯s turn. Before the staff could even speak, Luo Yuyi suddenly shouted and approached them, ¡°Wait a minute, she is with us. She doesn¡¯t have an invitation letter.¡± She explained as she pointed to the staff and pointed to the line behind her. ¡°This lady, if you are together, you must go in together. Now that you have already entered, you can¡¯t take anyone with you.¡± The staff replied with an expressionless face. ¡°Ah! Are you saying that my sister can¡¯t come in?¡± Luo Yuyi asked in a dramatic way. CH 30 ¡°Yes, but she can still come in if people in the line are willing to take her.¡± Still donning an expressionless face, the staff answered. Upon hearing this, Luo Yuyi quickly looked at Su Xun and others who were standing behind Luo Xi with an awkward expression. She discovered that there were some handsome guys in them, and a tinge of red appeared on her face and she said with a slightly embarrassed tone, ¡°That, that, young brothers, can you let my sister come with you? My sister lost her temper before, and is not willing to stand with me. I didn¡¯t know beforehand that taking a person in after already entering was not allowed, so this thing happened. I hope you can take my sister with you. I will be thankful to you on my sister¡¯s behalf.¡± Su Xun and the others exchanged looks, and were a bit surprised inside. Luo Xi told them the reason why she was behind the line is because it¡¯s not good to cut in line, so how come she turned into a person who was throwing temper? Even though they were not familiar with Luo Xi, the feeling that she gave them was that she was very cold, completely unlike a person who would throw her temper around. But giving her a helping hand is the must thing to do, so Su Xun replied, ¡°No problem, Luo Xi is after all our friend.¡± He patted his chest and answered. ¡°Friend, friend?¡± Luo Yuyi furrowed her eyebrows as soon as she heard the young man say that. How come she didn¡¯t know that Luo Xi was friends with this group of people? ¡°Since you guys are friends with my sister, I¡¯ll trouble you. Let¡¯s exchange contact information, so when the time comes, my sister and I will definitely treat you guys to dinner sometime.¡± Luo Yuyi immediately came back to her senses and composed herself before saying with a proper expression. It¡¯s a beauty who asked them, how could he still refuse? Su Xun naturally agreed without thinking deeply. But Luo Xi wasn¡¯t planning on giving him this opportunity, and stretched out her hand to take out a gold-plated invitation letter before speaking indifferently, ¡°No need to bother, I have an invitation letter.¡± She failed to notice that when she took out the invitation letter, the surrounding staff who were busy had their expression changed into a panicked one. ¡°You, how come you have it?¡± Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes became big, and she questioned her disbelievingly. It must be known that inside their Yun Meng University, only those students who are part of the student council could get an invitation letter. How could Luo Xi have one! ¡°I¡¯ll tell you about it later. Sister, don¡¯t block the way, a lot of people are still entering.¡± Luo Xi spoke lightly. Luo Yuyi gnashed her teeth, lifted her head, and found that a lot of people were already complaining and looking at her with dissatisfaction. She couldn¡¯t talk back and could only walk away with a sullen face. ¡°Amazing, your invitation letter looks more expensive. Why is it different from ours?¡± Su Xun curiously pulled out his invitation letter and compared it to hers with doubts. The silver color instantly paled in comparison when placed beside the gold color. Furthermore, he also discovered that printed on his invitation letter was a gray fox, while on Luo Xi, it was a silver fox. This is the Night Charm Club¡¯s exclusive logo, and from the looks of it, Luo Xi¡¯s invitation letter was rather unusual. ¡°This is an invitation letter made by our boss himself, and it¡¯s not surprising that a lot of differences could be noticed when comparing it to yours.¡± The staff spoke with a rather proud tone, and the way he looked at Luo Xi was similar to seeing gold, with a shine hiding in his eyes. Luo Xi paused for a few seconds. The Night Charm Club¡¯s boss made it himself? The surrounding people cast shocked glances at Luo Xi upon hearing the words of the staff. What is the identity of this girl to be personally invited by the boss of Night Charm Club! ¡°Miss, this is the mask we prepared for you.¡± A waiter placed a very delicate and exquisite silver fox mask in front of her. Whether it was the texture or the workmanship of this mask, it was much finer compared to other people¡¯s! A person could easily tell that it costs a lot of money. In addition, they never seen a person wearing a silver fox mask in Night Charm. CH 31 It was known to everyone that the Night Charm Club¡¯s logo was a fox. Thinking of the white jade fox mask left behind at the scene, no one has actually ever seen it. But after seeing Luo Xi¡¯s silver fox, they felt that they finally knew what it looked like. The surrounding people cast their eyes on this seemingly ordinary girl with a dainty face in surprise. Perhaps this girl has a powerful background? Or else, how come the Night Charm¡¯s staff are so respectful to her, and even gave her a silver fox mask that they had never seen before? Luo Xi received the mask and rubbed her fingers on it. It felt cold and very comfortable to touch. At first glance, it¡¯s obvious it¡¯s made from white jade or else the touch would not have been like this. As expected of the Night Charm, even a mask costs a lot. Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes turned red in jealousy as she looked at the mask in her hand, and almost vomited blood in her heart. Initially, she took Luo Xi here with the purpose of making her lose face, but in the end she stole the limelight! The hands on either side of her body were balled up with so much force. She really wanted to ask Luo Xi why she was given a fox mask, but no words came out of her mouth. She was just too mad at her! When she saw Luo Xi approaching, she gnashed her teeth and also approached her with a stiff smile. She spoke sweetly, ¡°Sister, your mask looks very good. Can I try it?¡± A glint appeared in Luo Xi¡¯s eyes for a second. Really laughable, they were outside and there was no need to pretend with this green tea bitch younger sister anymore, so she said ruthlessly, ¡°Why should I let you try it?¡± ¡°Let me try it. Don¡¯t you notice how this mask looks good together with my dress? You didn¡¯t dressed up well this time, and it¡¯s a waste of you to wear this mask. Besides, I look good wearing it and it gives me a lot of face. Isn¡¯t that right, sister? You usually love me the most, so how come you are unwilling to give me anything now?¡± Luo Yuyi questioned with a brokenhearted expression. If it was in her previous life, Luo Xi might feel soft-hearted upon seeing her like this. But now, she only felt like stabbing her chest mercilessly with a knife in her hand, and let her feel the taste of life worse than death. Still coveting her things? Luo Xi¡¯s eyes flashed a little, and she passed the mask to her. Luo Yuyi noticed her action and instantly turned happy. She immediately lifted her hand to receive it, but just when she was about to touch it, Luo Xi¡¯s hands lost force and with a thudding sound, the white jade mask fell on the floor. Luo Yuyi stood frozen in shock, and before she could come back to her senses, Luo Xi¡¯s voice full of blame floated to her ears, ¡°Yiyi, what are you doing? Just because I don¡¯t want to exchange mask with you, you threw my mask on the floor. Do you still treat me as your sister!¡± ¡°What, what?¡± Luo Yuyi looked at her with a disbelieving expression. She couldn¡¯t believe that Luo Xi would do such a thing and say those words! This scene is too familiar. The only difference is, her and Luo Xi¡¯s roles have been reversed! ¡°You disappoint me so much!¡± The words coming out of Luo Xi¡¯s mouth were full of blame, but her mouth hooked up to form a mocking smile. Her expression was a look of disappointment, paired with that sad look written in her eyes, she looked like she couldn¡¯t accept that Luo Yuyi would turn out to be such a person. These are all things she made her endure in the past, and now, she will return them to her without missing one! When Luo Xi saw Luo Yuyi¡¯s flustered appearance, she let out a sneer in her heart. The two looked at each other and no one saw what really happened, but this was enough to shock everyone. Those staff members who saw the mask falling on the ground had their expressions turned ugly in the next second, and they turned to look at Luo Yuyi whose current complexion was very bad. CH 32 ¡°What¡¯s wrong with this girl? Why is she taking the other girl¡¯s mask if she has one?¡± ¡°Look at the silver fox mask, just who wouldn¡¯t want it? It¡¯s worth a lot of money!¡± ¡°If she wants it, it¡¯s still wrong to forcibly take it away from others. Now she doesn¡¯t want to return it, so she throws it on the ground. This eldest lady from a certain family has such a big temper.¡± Someone said disdainfully. ¡°No, from the words of the other girl, it looks like this girl was her sister. This sister is too much. If I have a sister like her, see if I don¡¯t teach her a lesson when she has the courage to take away my things.¡± ¡°See the mask she was holding. It turned out to be a snake, really laughable. Perhaps that mask pointed to her snake heart? Haha!¡± ¡°No, look at her glamorous dress. Maybe she is trying to seduce people. With one look, we can see that she is not simple. It¡¯s better for us not to be associated with her. The crowd pointed their fingers at Luo Yuyi and talked to each other in soft voices. Luo Yuyi was known in school for being pure and innocent, excellent at studying, and very friendly with others. Everyone would sing praises upon hearing her name, so when she was humiliated like this, her face quickly flushed in anger. However, she was not without a brain. She grew up in the countryside and has been running around for a living starting when she was still a child. She was very clever and has learned a lot of tricks that she would never learned in school. It was also because of this that she was able to severely trample Luo Xi under her feet. But now, everything has changed. Starting from the time Luo Xi fell into the river and woke up, she stopped being a fool, and also caused her to fall into her designs many times. The first few times could be considered Luo Xi having luck on her side, but now! Her own eyes saw how Luo Xi let go of the mask in her hand. It was clear that she was plotting against her! But the situation right now will not do her any good. It might backfire on her if she still insisted on defending herself, so she simply cooperated with Luo Xi¡¯s acting. She lifted her head with tears brimming in her eyes and opened her mouth apologetically, ¡°Sister, I didn¡¯t mean to do it. I just want to borrow and see what it feels like to touch it. When you passed the mask to me, I only touched it for a brief moment, but the jade texture was too slippery and I didn¡¯t hold it firmly, so it fell to the ground. Even though I really like the fox mask, I wouldn¡¯t take it from you without your consent. Stop being angry, I know it¡¯s my fault.¡± She said in a sincere tone. The surrounding people felt a little ashamed after hearing her words, and proceeded to shut their mouths. After all, they have said some bad things already. ¡°I just said, how can a person throw someone else¡¯s mask on the ground? It turned out it was all accident.¡± ¡°Looking at her anxious appearance that is on the verge of crying, what she said should be true. But she¡¯s quite pitiful, she¡¯s so pretty but she was assigned to such an ugly-looking mask. It¡¯s normal that she wants to take a look at the other people¡¯s masks.¡± The people¡¯s initial dissatisfaction with Luo Yuyi slowly changed due to her sincere apology, and they started to change their views. ¡°I naturally do not blame you, but are you sure you really didn¡¯t want my mask? Just now, you said this mask doesn¡¯t look good on me, and it¡¯s just a waste for me to wear it. I see that you like it so much, so I am thinking of giving it to you. But how come you don¡¯t want it anymore? If you don¡¯t want it, please don¡¯t forget to say it to me beforehand, so I will not be in a difficult situation.¡± Her words floated to everyone¡¯s ears, and the way people looked at Luo Yuyi turned even weirder. This is too bitch, right? What is she trying to say by saying that it¡¯s a waste for her sister to wear it? Does she think that the mask suits her more? Those people who had a slightly better opinion of her changed to their former dislike. After a careful examination, aside from wearing a more luxurious dress compared to her sister, there is really nothing comparable to her. Luo Yuyi was furious to the point of vomiting blood. Luo Xi definitely did it on purpose! CH 33 Ning Mengmeng and the others over there had their expression changed into dissatisfaction when they saw Luo Yuyi losing face. What¡¯s wrong with Luo Yuyi? She was usually careful of her actions and the words she says, so how come she made so many mistakes today? Furthermore, there are a lot of people around. If they knew that she was a student of Yun Meng University, wouldn¡¯t they also be laughed at by them? ¡°Yiyi, if you don¡¯t come back here now, we¡¯re going to enter!¡± As soon as she thought of this, Ning Mengmeng called Luo Yuyi with a heavier voice. Luo Yuyi was sensitive to the emotions of the people around her, so she clearly sensed the dissatisfaction in her tone. When she turned her head, she saw the people around frowning and looking at her. Her heart was pulled hard, and despite the extreme reluctance in her heart, she did not have an option but to hold back! Luo Xi, she will not let her go! She glared at Luo Xi with ferocious eyes, squeezed the ugly snake mask tightly, and went back. Luo Xi watched as her expression turned livid due to anger, and the corner of her mouth faintly hooked, and she wore the mask. After they were done with the registration, Su Xun and others saw that Luo Yuyi did not pay attention to Luo Xi and left to go back with the others. They were slightly surprised, ¡°Did the two of you have a quarrel again? How come we have a feeling that your sister¡¯s expression is bad because you didn¡¯t give her the mask?¡± Luo Xi shrugged and did not speak. The two girls stood on either side of her, one on the left and one on the right. They said, ¡°Xixi, can we call you Xixi? As outsiders, we really don¡¯t have the right to meddle with you and your sister¡¯s matters, but we always feel that your sister doesn¡¯t treat you kindly at all.¡± One of the two girls was also dressed in a pink-colored dress, the same as the other girl, but she had her hair draped softly over her shoulders and a cute witch hat on her head. The two looked like little witches. The only difference is, the other one was tall and the other was short. Wang Yueyue was the name of the tall girl, while Li Xin for the short girl. Both of them are members of the dance department. Luo Xi was also very fond of dancing back then, so she knew that the two were dancers with just one look. Their temperament was unlike normal people. ¡°I know.¡± Luo Xi said indifferently. ¡°So, don¡¯t spoil her too much. My sister had a thin figure when she was young, and she became well-behaved after I beat her twice.¡± Wang Yueyue smiled smugly. ¡°She¡¯s right. A lot of overnight feuds between sisters happen a lot, and it also happens in our family. When I¡¯m angry, I¡¯m really angry, but after I while I can¡¯t help talking to her and then the two of us are talking and laughing again.¡± Luo Xi smiled after hearing what she said. Before, she also foolishly assumed that if she had a younger sister, she could also experience that warm scene. But no one knew that the return of her younger sister would bring her never-ending darkness and hatred! Those people simply aren¡¯t aware that there is a sea of blood between Luo Yuyi and her! How could she still talk and laugh with an enemy, and be a good sister to her? A despising smile appeared on Luo Xi¡¯s face, but since she had her mask on like the others, no one can see it. Stepping inside the club, lights were flickering around, and it felt more like a bar. But different from bars, a mysterious atmosphere permeated inside. Many people could be seen inside, and the club was also spacious. With one look, there was simply no way to see the end. Clusters of people gathered around, chatting and smiling, playing games, drinking, and dancing. By the time Luo Yuyi and the others entered, some people had already taken a seat. Luo Xi noticed that there were quite a few men and women, but probably weren¡¯t from their school, and they must have made appointments with other schools in advance. Luo Yuyi exchanged masks with someone and got a white cat mask. Now, she resembled a pure lady, sitting in a well-behaved manner beside Leng Yuan. CH 34 When Luo Yuyi noticed her entering, she quickly called out, ¡°Sister, we are here, come here.¡± The other people inside were attracted by her yelling and looked over at Luo Xi¡¯s direction. ¡°A lot of students from the other schools have gathered with your classmates. Come on, let¡¯s go and get acquainted with them.¡± Su Xun swept a glance and saw more than ten people sitting there, and said with a slightly surprised tone. Luo Xi didn¡¯t reply, but simply followed after them. ¡°This is your older sister? The real sister? This mask of hers really looks pretty.¡± The man at the front sitting opposite Luo Yuyi looked at the mask on Luo Xi¡¯s face with curiosity. It was true that the mask looked unusual, and it was the first time he had seen it. ¡°That¡¯s right, my sister¡¯s mask looks special.¡± Luo Yuyi couldn¡¯t stop but spoke with a hint of jealousy. After saying that, the people around her had their interest piqued. The young man who was sitting opposite to Luo Yuyi and who was talking to her just now opened his mouth, ¡°Little beauty, what¡¯s your name, and how did you get this mask?¡± A crease quickly appeared on Luo Xi¡¯s eyebrows upon hearing that voice. Something appeared briefly in her mind, and she looked at the young man¡¯s exposed face, and finally recalled who he was! Liu Xuan! Her eyes darkened a bit. In her previous life, she was almost delivered to this man¡¯s bed by her own sister! That thing will happen a few months prior to now. At that time, she was already the wife of Leng Minhang. Even though their marriage was done in secret, everyone gradually got news of it because of Luo Yuyi¡¯s mouth. Despite the fact that this Liu Xuan didn¡¯t come from a powerful family, he was a famous son of a rich family. His family didn¡¯t lack money, and he was known by everyone as a nouveau riche kid. He is a student of Cai Jiang University, located next door to their Yun Meng University. He has lots of money and a gentle and handsome appearance that can fool everyone, so he is a very excellent figure in school. But how scumbag this person is, Luo Xi couldn¡¯t be any clearer. After he got acquainted with Luo Yuyi and the others, he would always propose to go out and have dinner together, and also have some fun every now and then. At that time, he happened to see her talking to Luo Yuyi when he came to look for Luo Yuyi and the others, and he asked Luo Yuyi to let her go with them. At first, she didn¡¯t have any intention to go with them at all, but she couldn¡¯t withstand Luo Yuyi¡¯s stubborn attitude, and she went with them in the end. Luo Xi was incapable of drinking alcohol, and she couldn¡¯t last long even if she only drank a small amount. This matter was only known by family members. That day, Luo Yuyi passed her a drink and she did not doubt it at all. After drinking a little, her mind spun and she felt something off. After making an excuse to escort her back to rest, Luo Yuyi instead took her to a hotel room. She was so dizzy at that time that she didn¡¯t think too much about it. By the time Liu Xuan came inside the room and tried to touch her, everything sinks in and she finally realized that something was wrong. Even though her mind was a little dizzy, she still retained a bit of her mind, so she tried to take her own life as a last resort. Liu Xuan was deeply scared that she would really take her own life, so he freed her. Later, she woke up and questioned Luo Yuyi about the situation, but Luo Yuyi replied that she had no idea. She stopped thinking about it, and simply thought that it was due to Liu Xuan¡¯s evil intention that this thing happened. She did not suspect at all the possibility that it was her sister¡¯s hand behind the scenes that caused all this to happen. As such, no one knew where the news came from, but the rumors that she slept with Liu Xuan circulated outside. A lot of people were aware that she was married, but still fooled around with other students at school. For a while, her reputation fell to the bottom, and even the Leng family got news of it. If it wasn¡¯t for Leng Minhang¡¯s protection, the Leng family would have filed a divorce letter without hesitation at that time. As she thought of these unfortunate events in the past, a piercing coldness flashed at the bottom of Luo Xi¡¯s eyes. In her previous life, she was a fool. Despite having a powerful figure like Leng Minhang to support from behind, she was still as cowardly as a mouse, and did not have the courage to speak even when she was suppressed by others! CH 35 But not in this life! She will make those people who have suppressed her get what they deserve! ¡°Sorry, I¡¯m not fond of saying my name to people I don¡¯t know. As for where I got the mask from? Do you even need to ask such a stupid question? How you come here, I also do the same way to get here.¡± Upon hearing her words, the surrounding people coughed awkwardly a few times. Sitting on the opposite side, Liu Xuan, who was dressed similar to a dog1 and had a jackal mask on his face, stiffened. He had no idea what was going on, but he had a feeling that this girl was staring at him very coldly, as if she was looking at a dead person? There was a slight chill down his back, but after hearing what she said, he immediately threw this feeling into the back of his mind. A trace of annoyance appeared in his eyes, and he opened his mouth disdainfully, ¡°Isn¡¯t this a place for making friends? Why are you acting mighty?¡± ¡°It¡¯s true that the purpose of this place is to get acquainted with others, but people can also choose not to, right?¡± Luo Xi curled her lips slightly. Despite the fact that most of her face was covered with a mask, the faint light reveals the slightly upturned nose tip as well as the red vermillion lips, and the pair of extremely seductive eyes hidden in the fox mask. Just by these things alone, Liu Xuan can guess how stunning the face is under this mask! If it were the other girls who he had taken the initiative to start a conversation with, they would most likely be overjoyed, and there was no way that they would have the same expression as this woman. The reason must be because this woman was unaware of his identity. If she knows it, Liu Xuan didn¡¯t believe that she would still have this kind of expression. So, he was not annoyed by what Luo Xi just said, and laughingly said, ¡°You are quite a personality, but I was wrong too just now. I should have taken the initiative to say my name first. Now I will introduce myself formally. My name is Liu Xuan, the vice president of the student council of Cai Jiang University. My family is doing a real estate business. Although not large, it¡¯s spread throughout the Yun City. If this classmate intends to buy a house in the future, come to me and I will give you a discounted price as a friend?¡± ¡°Oh.¡± Much to their surprise, Luo Xi was completely unaffected by his enthusiasm and gave a perfunctory reply. Everyone witnessed her actions and broke into a cold sweat for Luo Xi. It must be known that Liu Xuan has never been a good-tempered person. The word strange could describe the current emotions of Su Xun and his group. Luo Xi did not have this kind of attitude towards them before. Even though she was a little cold, at least she didn¡¯t show this kind of expression that she didn¡¯t want to be friends with them. Perhaps this guy named Liu Xuan really annoys her? Meanwhile, Zhou Yu and Yang Feng who had lost face to Luo Xi before felt a lot more balanced in their hearts. If they really saw Luo Xi giving a good attitude to Liu Xuan, they felt that they might become upset. ¡°You!¡± Regarding this attitude of hers, Liu Xuan also felt annoyed. When had Liu Xuan been so neglected by a woman? When she saw this, Luo Yuyi quickly stood up to speak, ¡°I¡¯m really sorry, senior. My sister¡¯s character is really just like this, and she is not fond of making friends with other people. If it wasn¡¯t for Senior Leng¡¯s presence here this time, she would most likely not have attended this party. Right, Senior Leng, my sister is your loyal admirer.¡± She winked mischievously at Leng Yuan, who had been cold from the moment he stepped foot into this party until now. The hand of Leng Yuan who was holding the wine glass stopped for a bit and he turned to look at Luo Xi¡¯s direction. ¡°She¡¯s right. It¡¯s not a day or two since the school belle had a crush on senior. In her freshman year, she even sent senior a love letter.¡± Ning Mengmeng also echoed and laughed. That being said, this incident also became one of the hot topics in school. During the freshman year, at the opening ceremony, Luo Xi became head over heels to Leng Yuan, who was the president of the student council assigned to welcome the freshmen. Since then, she began her crazy pursuit mode. But a lot of people were also pursuing Leng Yuan, so no one thought too much about it. After all, who wouldn¡¯t like an excellent person like him? CH 36 At that time, in addition to secretly gifting him different kinds of sweet food every day, she even made a love letter and professed her admiration for Leng Yuan personally in the playground. The result was that Leng Yuan did not even look at her, and directly threw two words, ¡°I refuse¡±, and proceeded to leave. Luo Xi ran away crying on the spot. The school belle¡¯s failed confession was captured and posted on the school¡¯s forum, causing the incident to be known by everyone and become a hot topic for gossip after dinner. Leng Yuan furrowed his brows, ¡°Sent a love letter?¡± A lot of students had given him love letters to profess their love for him during his university period, but it turned out that his future sister-in-law was one of them? Really, it¡¯s interesting. ¡°Yes, my sister liked you so much at that time.¡± Luo Yuyi spoke with a hint of ridicule in her tone. It¡¯s a fact that Leng Yuan is such a talented and good-looking person, and no one can compare with him in school. This Luo Xi is really a toad who wants to eat swan meat, thinking that Leng Yuan would even look at her. A pity for her that she didn¡¯t know that all the things she gave to Leng Yuan at that time were all sent by Luo Yuyi using her own name! Later, Leng Yuan approached her. Currently, although the two have no relationship, Leng Yuan treats her in a special way. He allows her to sit by his side and eat with him. But it¡¯s a different case for Luo Xi. She didn¡¯t even have the chance to see Leng Yuan personally. Every time she thought of this, Luo Yuyi¡¯s heart was full of smugness. This time, Leng Yuan didn¡¯t even say a single word to Luo Xi, and just withdrew his eyes after looking at her for a while. There are a lot of people who like him and Luo Xi is just one of them, and there was nothing to feel good about. If his cold-hearted brother got to know that the woman who he married and also the one he was fond of, had taken a liking to him once, would he snap that woman¡¯s neck? Luo Xi noticed the despising expression on his face and a sour feeling spread from the bottom of her heart. This feeling was the same feeling her former self had for Leng Yuan. She didn¡¯t expect that in this life, even after being reborn and coming back here, that feeling still did not disappear from the depths of her body. It¡¯s still the same feeling that caused her heart to throb. But this feeling no longer has the slightest effect on the reborn Luo Xi. From the moment she decided to accept Leng Minhang, the obsession she had for Leng Yuan before disappeared completely. It¡¯s just that this body was still what it was like in the past. ¡°Who didn¡¯t like a few idiots when they were young?¡± Luo Xi sneered, ¡°I don¡¯t think there¡¯s anything to explain about this.¡± Idiot, idiot? The surrounding people stiffened upon hearing what she said. ¡°Sister, sister, stop talking nonsense¡­¡± Is this still the cowardly Luo Xi who didn¡¯t even have the guts to speak loudly to others? Now, she even has the guts to say such things to other people. Isn¡¯t she not the least bit scared to go against others? An unbelievable expression flashed in Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes. ¡°I¡¯m just stating the fact.¡± Luo Xi said indifferently. If everyone¡¯s initial thought about Luo Xi is just that she is straightforward and outspoken, then the only thought left in their minds now is that she is too bold! How dare she go against the president of the student council? It looked like she didn¡¯t want to be in school anymore! Is Luo Xi blind? Of course not. She intended to let these people know that even if she said this, Leng Yuan would not have the courage to lay a hand on her at all. The reason was because he wouldn¡¯t dare, and couldn¡¯t! Having the courage to lay his hand on his brother¡¯s fianc¨¦e? He wouldn¡¯t do it as long as he still wished to remain inside the Leng¡¯s house. In her previous life, she was ignorant of the benefits her status could bring to her, so she let other people suppress her for a long time. In this life, she, Luo Xi, will not be stupid again. Sometimes, opting for the use of a hard approach to control another hard approach was the best method to suppress the enemy. And Leng Minhang, a powerful man that no one dares to go against in City A, is her backer! CH 37 Gloom and coldness filled Leng Yuan¡¯s face, but to the surprise of everyone, he didn¡¯t say anything. Su Xun and the others coughed. If they didn¡¯t know Luo Xi before, they might not have felt that her words had deep meanings behind them, but now that they knew her, they felt that Luo Xi seemed to dislike this group of people who came with her. After all, when it came to them, Luo Xi was still very polite. They also had no idea about what these people did that caused to be extremely disgusted with them. Watching these people blow each other up1, Luo Xi¡¯s mood turned bad. After sitting for a while, she made an excuse to go to the bathroom. She intended to slip away first before going back. Anyway, it is sufficient that she knows Luo Yuyi came here to know some specific people. Stepping her feet outside the bathroom, a series of surprise voices from the crowd entered her ears. She lifted up her head, her pupils widening. Is that Leng Minhang? The man was dressed in a high-fashioned black suit, and the whole person looked very tall and imposing against the crowd. Although the other party¡¯s back was facing her, Luo Xi was certain that this man was Leng Minhang, and who she had slept with for three years. There¡¯s not that she would remember it wrong! Her eyes became hot, and she ran after him quickly. It was a pity that the man¡¯s steps were very broad and he soon disappeared into the dense crowd. ¡°Did you notice the man who walked by just now? He¡¯s so good-looking, and he even had a silver fox mask on his face. Although his face was hidden, this man must be of the best quality.¡± ¡°No! Unfortunately, the aura around him is too overwhelming, causing people around to be completely afraid of going near him.¡± The crowd were talking to each other in soft voices, their tone lamenting. Luo Xi remained rooted on the spot where the man was standing just now, and her eyes were flushed. She looked helpless with tears brushing down on her face under the mask, but she no longer saw the familiar back of the man. Did she see it wrong? How could a person like Leng Minhang appear in this kind of place? At this time, someone tapped her from behind, ¡°Hey, Luo Xi, what are you standing there for? We are going to eat. Do you want to go?¡± Zhou Yu furrowed his brows and questioned. From afar, he saw the figure of this woman standing there stupidly. After all, she was really eye-catching wearing that plain dress on her body. He couldn¡¯t stop himself from scoffing in his heart. This is a girl who doesn¡¯t even know how to dress up properly for a party, so how can she please others? But when Luo Xi turned around for a moment, Zhou Yu froze. The girl who was still cold and angry before now had her eyes turned red. With tears brimming in her eyes, watery lights were constantly flashing, and she looked extremely pitiful with helplessness and sadness coming from the depths of her body. For a while, Zhou Yu had his heartbeat quickened. ¡°Hey, you, what happened to you?¡± The sudden contrast caused Zhou Yu to be at a loss for words and opened his mouth to ask. Upon seeing it was him, a touch of disappointment appeared in Luo Xi¡¯s eyes for a brief moment. She immediately snapped out of her grief, wiped away her tears, and restored her former cold expression. ¡°You woman, you really don¡¯t know what to do.¡± Seeing that she walked past him, Zhou Yu scolded a bit furiously. For a moment, he really thought that she was quite pitiful! Just how blind is he? ¡°Alright, what have you been looking at downstairs?¡± Ouyang Xuan came over and saw Leng Minhang looking downstairs. He also looked over, and then spoke with some surprise¡¯ ¡°Ah, a small flower ran out of the thousands of flowers. Green leaf, so cute. Eh? Why is her mask a white jade fox mask? Didn¡¯t you say that the silver fox is your own signature mask?¡± CH 38 The man next to him did pay attention to what he said and continued to look at the petite girl walking away downstairs. Was she crying just now? When the young man¡¯s hand got into contact with the little girl¡¯s shoulder just now, a cold air permeated from his side. ¡°Hey, the little girl has already disappeared, yet you¡¯re still looking over. Say, what is the identity of that girl that causes you to look at her so deeply?¡± Ouyang Xuan inquired with some curiosity. Luo Xi¡¯s figure blended with the dense crowd in a short time, and it wasn¡¯t until she disappeared completely that Leng Minhang causally took his eyes back and moved his legs to enter one of the rooms. Ouyang Xuan didn¡¯t get an answer from him and felt an uncomfortable feeling similar to scratching his heart. He quickly followed after him and asked again, ¡°Hey, I have something I want to ask you. Do you like that little girl?¡± The man sat languidly on the sofa, he then proceeded to pour a glass of red wine for himself. While sipping the red wine unhurriedly, his eyes squinted a bit, and no one knew what was going on in his mind. ¡°Fine, brother, I¡¯ll call you brother. Now, if you still don¡¯t answer me, I¡¯ll chase after her?¡± He naughtily said. He didn¡¯t expect that the moment he said those words, the temperature around him dropped several degrees in an instant. Ouyang Xuan silently tried to fight the cold air around him, and heard the man¡¯s threatening voice that was so cold that he almost froze to death, ¡°Don¡¯t mess with her!¡± He drew a breath of cold air, ¡°You¡¯re not serious, aren¡¯t you? Didn¡¯t you already have a fianc¨¦e? You¡¯re still thinking of fooling around outside, and it¡¯s not good. If your old man gets news of what you are doing, he will definitely be furious. Moreover, from what I remember you had no interest in women before. Are you finally enlightened now?¡± Leng Minhang¡¯s hand that was shaking the glass of red wine stopped for a bit, and he lifted his eyes to look at him before saying faintly, ¡°She¡¯s my fianc¨¦e.¡± ¡°What? What!¡± Ouyang Xuan involuntarily moved several steps back in fright, ¡°Are you saying that the underage girl you were looking at downstairs just now is my sister-in-law?¡± The man slightly squinted his eyes, looking like he was impatient, ¡°What? Do you have an opinion?¡± ¡°No, no, no.¡± Ouyang Xuan quickly turned scared after seeing the look in his eyes, but the extremely shocked expression remained on his face, ¡°It¡¯s not like your fianc¨¦e is a scheming woman with an extreme character. Rumors have it that she would rather die than to marry you, is that real? Just now, she didn¡¯t resemble those rumors at all. She¡¯s a cute girl. Is she already at the right age? How dare you do it?¡± The man¡¯s eyes turned gloomy: ¡°It¡¯s none of your business.¡± ¡°But it¡¯s really a pity. I heard that this girl is not the ideal candidate as a daughter-in-law for your old man. If it wasn¡¯t for the fact that you are sick, he would never have given that girl a chance from such a family to enter the Leng¡¯s house. It is estimated that once your health becomes good, he will find a reason to send the girl back. If that¡¯s really the case, this is too poor.¡± Originally, when he heard that this girl would rather die than to marry Leng Minhang, he was also very upset in his heart and had a bad impression of the girl, but after seeing her today, his impression of her has slightly changed. When he saw Leng Minhang¡¯s gloomy eyes, his mind couldn¡¯t help but think of the tragic car accident Leng Minhang suffered some time ago. At that time, Leng Minhang¡¯s life was hanging only by a thin thread. The Leng family spent a lot of effort to rescue him, but his consciousness remained in a coma. The doctor even made a statement about the high possibility that he would become vegetable and would lie in bed for the rest of his life. Despite the fact that the Leng family¡¯s members were spread in every place, only Leng Minhang has the purest blood. In addition, he was also the recognized heir of the Leng family. As such, the blow this time to Leng¡¯s family can be described as a world-shattering blow. CH 39 Originally, Leng Minhang had a fianc¨¦e who had the same status as him, but when the other party got news that he would become a vegetable and that she will be a widow after marrying him, the girl unsurprisingly cancelled the engagement. The old lady of the Leng family was anxiously finding ways to suppress Leng Minhang¡¯s evil spirit. So the moment she got news that a person who was born at a special time and date can rescue him, she began to tirelessly search around, and finally settled on the twin sisters of the Luo family, one of whom was chosen to perform the wedding. It is just that they did not expect that a miraculous thing would really occur. After being engaged with the daughter of the Luo family, Leng Minhang got out of his coma and opened his eyes, and his health was restored in just a short span of time. It goes without saying that the Leng family was more than happy. Since Leng Minhang¡¯s health got well, they even had the plan to set aside the daughter of the Luo family, but to be on the safe side, they still waited for the two to get married first and see what would be the result. Anyway, it doesn¡¯t matter if it was marriage or divorce, for the Leng family, it can be done with just one sentence and it will not have an impact at all. Even though this kind of action could be considered disgraceful, it was simply impossible for people from a big family to have a high opinion about such a small family as the Luo family, right? So just listening to Leng Minhang say that the girl in the white jade fox mask was actually the eldest girl from the Luo family, his feeling was full of pity. Leng Minhang didn¡¯t even throw a glance at him, but focused his eyes on the swaying lines of the red wine in his glass, and spoke using a deep voice, ¡°I will only marry her.¡± These short words look simple, but people are able to hear the certainty hidden in them. Ouyang Xuan¡¯s eyes became big involuntarily, and he opened his mouth in surprise, ¡°From what I remembered so far, you two haven¡¯t seen each other yet, am I right? Why do I have a feeling that you care too much about that girl from the Luo family? Maybe it¡¯s only my imagination?¡± An unbelievable expression appeared on his face. ¡°Who said I haven¡¯t met her?¡± Leng Minhang recalled something and the corner of his mouth curled up in an evil arc. He once met this little girl when he was still a child. At that time, Luo Xi¡¯s grandfather often took her with him when visiting Leng¡¯s house as a guest. One time, he discovered someone eating the egg yolk cake the chef especially made for him, and had a childish fight with Luo Xi, to the extent of scaring the little girl until she cried. For this reason, he was punished by his old man later. He should be resenting the little girl for what happened to him, but much to his surprise, the little girl who stole the egg yolk cake before entered his room secretly and gifted him his favorite egg yolk cake. After that, she admitted her wrongdoing and cried before asking him if it hurt. His mind at that moment was blank, leaving only behind the tearful face of the little girl and his sorry feelings for her as he saw her shedding tears. But his decision remained the same and he refused the little girl¡¯s egg yolk cake, since it was her fault that he was punished by his old man. Later, perhaps the reason was his uncaring attitude but the little girl didn¡¯t approach him again. She only watched him secretly but didn¡¯t have the courage to get near him, and if she had something delicious, she would silently give him a portion. Such a situation lasted until Luo Xi¡¯s grandfather died due to a sudden heart attack. After that, she never visited again. Luo Xi was still a child at that time, so she might have forgotten it long ago, but Leng Minhang will never forget that time in his life. Of course Ouyang Xuan was not aware of these things. He was still trying to ask Leng Minhang, but when he saw the other party¡¯s impatient expression, he finally shut his mouth. It doesn¡¯t matter, the future is long. But Ouyang Xuan was really curious about what was special about the girl from the Luo family that could make Leng Minhang, a bachelor who has lived for thousands of years, care for her so much. ¡°Xixi, we have an appointment to go out for dinner together!¡± The moment Luo Xi passed by, Su Xun and the others walked over. It was clear that they had been mingling with the others just now. CH 40 Luo Xi agreed, and a group of people went to the floor above to get inside a box1 in a dignified way. After getting inside the box, it was normal for the people inside to stop wearing their masks. Everyone removed their masks, and those people who had not seen Luo Xi behind the mask were all looking at her stunning face. Liu Xuan¡¯s eyes were completely focused on her and the dissatisfaction from before disappeared without any trace. Despite the fact that Luo Xi was dressed very ordinarily when she entered the party, it caused the people around her to feel comfortable. In addition, the mask she wore was something he had never seen before, causing him to throw a few more glimpses at her than normal. It was just that he later became annoyed with her after she ignored his presence. He just did not expect that the other party would turn out to be a beauty. It¡¯s no wonder these people say that she was the school belle. They asked a waiter for a menu, and the men in the group let the girls pick first. So the menu naturally fell into the hands of Ning Mengmeng and Luo Yuyi first. After looking at the price, the two of them had their eyes widened without them knowing. A single dish is worth more than five digits, which is really ridiculously expensive. Although they don¡¯t lack money, after eating here, it would cost them one month¡¯s worth of living expenses. They had no idea of who would be paying for this meal, but they were certain that it wouldn¡¯t be girls. As soon as they thought of this, the two girls ordered with a piece of mind and handed the menu to the other girls after holding it for a while. Luo Xi¡¯s seat was right beside Luo Yuyi, but Luo Yuyi directly passed the menu to Wang Yueyue and Li Xin who were seated on either side of Luo Xi. When everyone introduced themselves downstairs, she knew that this group of people were from the No. 1 Noble University in Yun City. To have the ability to be part of such a top prestigious university, their status would be either wealthy or aristocrat. Furthermore, Luo Yuyi is good at observing other people and had some knowledge regarding the brands and tiers of different kinds of clothing and jewelry. So when she saw the two girls dressed in clothes that were worth a lot of money, she made up her mind to make friends with the two. But to her surprise, the two girls creased their eyebrows and questioned, ¡°Your sister hasn¡¯t ordered yet. Why are you giving us the menu?¡± The smile on Luo Yuyi¡¯s mouth stiffened slightly and she replied, ¡°My sister eats the same food I like to eat. I already ordered a portion for her when I¡¯d ordered just now.¡± The two girls fixed their eyes on her with some doubt. After all, when Luo Yuyi was ordering just now, she didn¡¯t even ask for Luo Xi¡¯s opinion at all and was instead talking with Ning Mengmeng for the whole time. They felt that what she did was a little extreme. At the very least, the two were sisters, so how come she treated her sister like this? However, it was other people¡¯s affairs and they couldn¡¯t meddle too much, so they just frowned and placed the menu on the space between them and said, ¡°Xixi, let¡¯s look at the menu together.¡± Luo Xi did not expect Wang Yueyue to do this and felt a warm current flowing in her heart in the next second. But when her eyes landed on the prices of those dishes, she became stupefied. What kind of profiteer is this? A single dish charges a lot of digits, and a plate of fruits is worth tens of thousands? Even though their family had lots of money, her parents would not allow them to squander money wantonly. The pocket money they give in normal times is just sufficient for living expenses, and her one week¡¯s worth of living expenses is not sufficient to even buy a plate of fruit here. She likes to eat fruit, so she thought about it and ordered one just like how the others also ordered the food they liked. It didn¡¯t take long before the ordered dishes were placed on the table slowly. Liu Xuan snapped his fingers, and the waiter quickly stepped forward to pour everyone a glass of wine. ¡°We are all meeting for the first time, so to celebrate this acquaintance, I¡¯ll start with a toast for everyone.¡± He straightened his feet and lifted the corner of his mouth. The rest of the people stood up as well and lifted their glasses. CH 41 One from the group saw that her glass was already filled with tea and immediately spoke, ¡°Luo Xi, what are you trying to say by this? It¡¯s too impolite to drink tea when someone toasts you.¡± ¡°Sorry, I can¡¯t drink.¡± Luo Xi replied lightly. ¡°Oh, sister, you¡¯re really too spoiled even in this kind of situation. I¡¯m aware too that you disliked drinking, but how can you not drink on this kind of occasion? A small amount will do. Besides, I¡¯m here by your side. What are you afraid of?¡± Luo Yuyi laughed. ¡°What she said is correct. What are you acting so hypocritical for? All the people here are adults.¡± Ning Mengmeng spoke with a disdainful expression. Luo Xi¡¯s hand holding the glass stopped for a bit. She lifted her eyes and turned to her, saying indifferently, ¡°There is no rule saying that adults must know how to drink alcohol, right?¡± ¡°You!¡± Ning Mengmeng glared with a pair of furious eyes. She has been enduring for a long time with Luo Xi now, if it wasn¡¯t for the unsuitable place now, she would have taught her a lesson. Where did she get the guts to talk to her like this, and even disregarded her status! ¡°Okay, okay, it¡¯s fine not to drink.¡± Liu Xuan seemed easy-going, then lifted his hand to motion to the waiter, saying, ¡°Come here, I heard that your Night Charm has a new Yulu wine. Give this lady a glass.¡± The waiter complied with his instructions and went downstairs. Luo Xi furrowed her eyebrows, what is this thing again? What is Liu Xuan thinking? ¡°You don¡¯t have to be anxious, Qiongye Yulu1 is just a drink.¡± Liu Xuan looked like he knew what was going on her mind and explained with a smile. Wang Yueyue sitting at the side also echoed, ¡°That¡¯s correct, I also drank and it¡¯s super good. I also want one.¡± ¡°Want any, today is this young master¡¯s treat. Everyone feels free to eat and drink anything they want.¡± Liu Xuan raised and waved his hand, looking very open-minded. At this moment, the waiter came back holding the so-called Qiongye Yulu and placed it in front of Luo Xi. A faint fruity smell wafted to the tip of her nose, which smelled very good. Since Wang Yueyue had already confirmed it, it should be safe to drink it. It just so happened that she also wanted to see what would be the taste of the so-called Qiongye Yulu. After taking the first sip, Luo Xi¡¯s eyes brightened up. It¡¯s true that it tastes good! She couldn¡¯t stop herself from taking another sip. Liu Xuan looked at her appearance, gulped and inquired, ¡°What do you think about it? It¡¯s good, right?¡± Luo Xi did not have the intention of replying to him and only nodded slightly as a response. But the more she drank, the more she felt something was off. Heated sweats appeared on her forehead, and her cheeks started to turn red. She moved her head sideways, and a suspecting look flashed in her eyes. What¡¯s going on? ¡°Wow, your face looks so red. Is it very hot?¡± Sitting at the side, Wang Yueyue also observed the movements of her wiping her sweats every now and then, and couldn¡¯t help but ask. ¡°Nothing, I¡¯ll head to the bathroom first and wash my face.¡± Luo Xi got up from the chair and said. When people around saw her walking unsteadily, they felt a little unbelievable, ¡°No way, drinking this kind of fruit wine caused her to be drunk?¡± Luo Xi listened and almost vomited blood after listening to this sentence. No wonder it smelled like fruit juice just now, but she still got drunk only after taking a few sips! She staggered to the direction of the bathroom and splashed water on her face two times, but the dizzy feeling still remained inside her head. At the same time, the atmosphere around her became chaotic. She cursed inwardly. After taking a few steps, the whole person collapsed against the wall without any energy. But the expected pain did not come, she instead fell into a wide and familiar embrace full of security. Feeling safe, she finally closed her heavy eyelids with a peace of mind. Leng Minhang gloomily picked up the drunk little woman. He did not expect that in this kind of place, she, who can¡¯t even touch a drop of alcohol, would drink! CH 42 Just how stubborn was she? If he had not been keeping an eye on her for the whole time, how dangerous it would have been! He fixed his eyes on the little woman who was lying in his embrace, the movements of his hands tightened, and a touch of softness fleeted across his eyes. ¡°Woo1, husband.¡± When he was just about to place the little woman onto the bed after entering the room, the person in his arms suddenly clenched the clothes on his torso, furrowed her eyebrows, and called out. Leng Minhang¡¯s hands movement slowed down for a beat, and his eyes chilled, ¡°What did you just call me?¡± The red-faced little woman in his embrace seemed to hear a familiar voice, and opened her eyes with difficulty, then looked at him with eyes glittering with tears. Pitiful whimpers and sobs escaped from her lips. ¡°Why are you crying for?¡± Leng Minhang laughed angrily after seeing her look. He hadn¡¯t even blamed her for drinking, but she already felt wronged? Who would expect that the moment he let out those words, the tears that were brimming in the other party¡¯s eyes flowed down from the corner of her eyes. Leng Minhang was finally a little dumbfounded this time. He had done nothing, so why is this little woman crying? His hands which were loosened before, tightened for the second time, pulling the person against his arms. Then he rubbed her slender back with stiff movements, ¡°It¡¯s okay, don¡¯t be afraid.¡± The crying of the little woman in his embrace slowly ceased under his consoling voice. It didn¡¯t take long before she returned to her peaceful condition, but because she cried hard just now, her body was still trembling from time to time, causing people to feel pity for her after looking at her. What is it that caused you to cry? Leng Minhang had an assumption that someone might have bullied her, and a hint of anger appeared in his eyes for a second. He then proceeded to put her down on the bed and make a call to find out if something bad had happened, but after moving for a bit, the other party started to softly cry again. This time, she regained a little consciousness and called out the word husband again from time to time. Is she calling him, or another person? He felt that she was not calling him, but it was also true that he was her future husband. But if she was calling someone else, he would make sure to trample that other man until he became ashes and made him regret that he was born in this world. No matter what the right answer was, he couldn¡¯t afford to leave now. He stretched out his hand and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. Leng Minhang¡¯s eyes landed on Luo Xi¡¯s sleeping face that was leaning on his chest and the corner of his lips curled up faintly, forming a smile filled with tenderness. What a clingy little woman. The next morning, Luo Xi suddenly opened her eyes with her back still against the bed. After scanning her eyes around, her whole body froze. Then her eyes landed on the brand new set of pajamas she was wearing, and blood left her face in the next second. She still had some faint recollection of the events last night. She walked inside the bathroom with an aching head and almost collapsed on the floor when someone caught her just in time before she fell. She knew very well the scent of the man who caught her, and she was certain that it was Leng Minhang, so she let herself go at that time. From the faint memory in her head, she recalled that she kept holding onto him and crying, saying to him not to leave her, and then fell asleep with her hand still gripping his clothes. But she is now in her right mind. At that time, her mind was still blank, submerged with the eagerness of finding the person she had been wishing for in her previous life. She had completely forgotten that she was now reborn! So who the hell was the man last night? A flustered expression flashed across Luo Xi¡¯s face. At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside with gentle force, and a woman wearing a waiter¡¯s uniform stepped inside. When the woman saw that she was awake, she spoke to her using a respectful tone, ¡°Miss, breakfast has been prepared for you.¡± ¡°Where is this place?¡± Luo Xi stared at her with vigilant eyes. ¡°You¡¯re still inside the Night Charm. Miss Luo was found by our master in a drunken state last night. He was worrying that something might happen to you, so he brought you back here.¡± The other party explained. ¡°Your master!¡± Luo Xi¡¯s mind flashed white, and she was now sure that the man last night was Leng Minhang, or else the man¡¯s scent and breath last night wouldn¡¯t be exactly similar to Leng Minhang¡¯s! CH 43 However, this is the Night Charm Club. There was no way that a man such as Leng Minhang would enter this kind of place filled with smoke and wine, right? Luo Xi was slightly baffled. Luckily for her, she found no uncomfortable feeling in her body, which meant that nothing should have happened. ¡°Who changed my clothes?¡± She questioned, her teeth pressing against her lips forcefully. ¡°I changed it for you.¡± The other party replied. Luo Xi breathed a sigh of relief. At the next, her expression changed slightly as if recalling something and asked, ¡°How about my clothes before?¡± ¡°It has been cleaned for you, I¡¯ll bring it to you right away.¡± When she saw her bad expression, the waiter quickly said. Luo Xi wore her clothes and left without wasting any time. She felt slightly at ease when she saw that the other party did not have the intention to block her way. Now it was already morning of the next day, and she did not come back all night. It goes without saying that Luo Yuyi must be making trouble at the house now. This kind of thing can only be explained by herself. Stroking her dull and aching head, Luo Xi¡¯s eyes flashed with a trace of remorse. She was really too careless! She hailed a taxi back home, arrived on the first floor, and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar villa. She drew a long breath and took a step forward. But to her surprise, the moment her foot stepped inside the house, her parents who were seated on the sofa welcomed her with a smile, ¡°Oh, Xixi is back?¡± A hint of surprise appeared in Luo Xi¡¯s eyes, and then Luo Yuyi¡¯s blaming voice sounded beside her ear. ¡°Sister, what¡¯s wrong with you? You left halfway while we were having dinner, causing everyone to search for you for a long time. Then later, Young Master Leng¡¯s assistant called, saying that their young master had met you by chance and noticed that you were not feeling well, and brought you back. Say, how could you leave without telling everyone?¡± It turned out that after Luo Xi excused herself to go to the bathroom last night, she did not return to the box. Everyone was anxious about her situation. Then Luo Yuyi made up a lie that Luo Xi had gone home first, making everyone feel dissatisfied with her impolite departure. Upon returning to the house, Luo Yuyi expressed her dissatisfaction with Luo Yang and Mu Qing, speaking ill about Luo Xi being shameless at the party and left without saying a word. After hearing what she said, the couple quickly became angry and felt that what Luo Xi did was disgracing the family¡¯s reputation. When they were about to call her, someone from the Leng family called. The couple, who were initially angry, heard that the young master of the Leng family was with Luo Xi, and quickly became happy. If the Leng family really placed great importance on the eldest daughter, then their Luo family would certainly benefit from it. So what¡¯s the use of being angry with the eldest daughter now? They just hoped that she could permanently stay at Leng¡¯s house and never return again. Luo Xi became startled. Perhaps the man last night was really Leng Minhang? Or else how come someone from the Leng family called to assure her parents that she was safe? She was stunned for a while. If it turned out to be true, then it was indeed Leng Minhang who she encountered last night. Furthermore, she actually encountered him in such an embarrassing situation. Is he thinking that she is an ill-mannered girl who went to that kind of place just to get drunk? Luo Xi¡¯s eyes flashed a look of annoyance. It was a pity that she had no way of confirming any of this. She turned her attention towards her parents who had overjoyed expressions plastered on their faces, and heaved a sigh of relief before saying, ¡°The marriage is not yet done, and I don¡¯t want to let the other party think that I¡¯m pestering him. Moreover, I¡¯m afraid that mom and dad would worry about me.¡± The two listened and commented that she was really a filial child. Then they asked, ¡°Xixi, did you get a glimpse of what the Leng family¡¯s eldest son looks like? How about his health?¡± Although Mu Qing did not like this eldest daughter at all, she was still her child after all, so she certainly did not want to see her marry into another family and become a widow. If Leng Minhang got well, then as the only heir of the Leng family and the president of the Shengjia Group, with Luo Xi being his wife in the future, the Luo family would definitely bask in his light and glory too. CH 44 A glint flashed across Luo Xi¡¯s eyes, then she shook her head before replying, ¡°I didn¡¯t see him.¡± Upon hearing her what she said, a look of disappointment appeared in the couple¡¯s eyes for a second. Luo Xi looked down and spoke, ¡°Mom and dad, I¡¯m a little exhausted. I¡¯ll return to my room first to rest.¡± It goes without saying that the two were spoiling Luo Xi during this time, so they agreed without asking anything and let her go back to her room. When Luo Xi passed by Luo Yuyi who was sending daggers at her with her eyes, her footsteps paused, and a sarcastic smile appeared on her face before she resumed walking upstairs. Luo Yuyi became furious after being looked at with such an infuriating look, but now that Luo Xi¡¯s weight was getting bigger and bigger in her parents¡¯ hearts, she did not dare to retaliate at all. Forget it, even if Luo Xi was unwilling, she would be soon married. When that time comes, there will be only one daughter left in the family, so her parents will only favor her and care about her. And Luo Xi, not only will she be alone, but also become the laughingstock of the whole school. As soon as she thought of this, Luo Yuyi felt her mood improved a lot. ¡­ Time passed quickly, and the scheduled day of the marriage finally arrived. It was now the time for Luo Xi to leave the Luo family and marry into the Leng family. Luo Yang and Mu Qing were both afraid that outsiders would think that they were selling their daughter, so they didn¡¯t dare to flaunt at all and did not invite relatives and friends. Early in the morning, My Qing had already gotten up. She intended to be a caring mother this time and personally help Luo Xi dress up even though the marriage is really not pleasing to the eye. When everything is considered, she was a piece of meat that fell from her stomach. Even though she was biased towards the youngest daughter, she also knew that Luo Xi was also her own daughter and, for this matter, she was not without any guilt. She knocked on the eldest daughter¡¯s room and heard her daughter¡¯s cold voice inside. A sigh of relief escaped from her lips, she then proceeded to enter the door, only to be greeted by the sight of Luo Xi already dressed in the white dress that Luo Yuyi demanded to wear before. Mu Qing¡¯s gaze flashed with a hint of awe. She knew from the very start that her eldest daughter was extremely beautiful, but she didn¡¯t pay much attention to it, since she had seen it too much before. She just did not expect her to look so attractive when dressed up seriously. Possessing this kind of fairy-like appearance, is there still any need to worry about not being able to marry into a wealthy family in the future? Yet, she had to marry a man who had his one foot placed in a coffin. She had asked around before and found that the young master of the Leng family was paralyzed in bed. Although his life was rescued, he might become a vegetable. What is the difference between this and a dead person? The eldest daughter will still be a widow after she marries. And for such a big family like them, she won¡¯t be treated kindly since she has no children from Leng Minhang. The more she thought about it, the more she felt saddened, but things had come to the point that everything couldn¡¯t be changed now. Even if she feels remorseful about it, it¡¯s all useless. Luo Xi noticed the remorse in her eyes. Even at the last moment, her mother still never thought of stopping the marriage, even though she knew the possible situations that she might encounter after getting there. In her previous life, despite the fact that her parents treated her coldly, she still missed them. But what remained inside Luo Xi now was her feelings of sarcasm towards the two. She withdrew her eyes and spoke with a slight smile, ¡°Mom, do I look good?¡± Mu Qing nodded her head, ¡°You look good! My daughter is the most beautiful! You¡¯re going to get married now. After arriving at Leng¡¯s house, don¡¯t be capricious. Be good and obedient, you know?¡± ¡°Mom and dad will go to see you if we have time.¡± Mu Qing opened her mouth, ¡°Come and sit down, mom will arrange your hair to a bridal head, and marry you beautifully.¡± Luo Xi nodded her head in a well-behaved manner. In a blink of an eye, it was now ten o¡¯clock. Dozens of black luxury cars drove on the road and gradually stopped under the Luo family¡¯s villa. Finishing wearing the Lk¡¯s crown and putting on a delicate makeup, Luo Xi heard the sound of the car and stood up. In her previous life, she was shedding tears about God¡¯s injustice at this time, wishing that her mom and dad could stop forcing her to get married. CH 45 But they left her alone shedding tears. Although her parents felt embarrassed for what they did, their decision remained firm and they insisted on sending her to the Leng family¡¯s car. The scene of lots of luxury cars arriving one after another at that time caught the attention of the people inside the neighborhood. Despite the fact that the Luo family made their utmost effort not let others know about this matter, everyone gradually became aware of it due to Luo Yuyi¡¯s big mouth that liked to say nonsense in every place. The people learned what happened, but they just don¡¯t mention it. When they saw her crying woefully, they pointed at her and whispered to each other. Her parents felt their dignity was being trampled on by those people, so they lost patience with her attitude. They warned that if she didn¡¯t agree to get married, they would disown her as their daughter. At the age of twenty, she was taken aback by this ruthless sentence. Tears poured down from her face, but she didn¡¯t dare to make a sound, for fear of further triggering their anger. After that, she left this place filled with helplessness. If not for that fact that Leng Minhang was not as scary as the rumor says and treated her with love and compassion, maybe she would have been reduced to the only option of taking her own life. But not anymore in this life. For today¡¯s event, Luo Xi has been looking forward to it for a long time! On the other side of the door came Luo Yuyi¡¯s impatient urging voice. ¡°Sister, why are you still staying inside the room? The cars from the Leng family have come to fetch you. Time is running late. Are you thinking of backing out from your marriage? Get out of the door quickly!¡± Luo Xi withdrew her gaze and inhaled deeply. She then turned around and stared at her reflection in the mirror. When she saw that everything was fine, she lifted her skirt and walked over. Upon opening the door, the unconcerned and even somewhat smug Luo Yuyi suddenly froze. She looked at her unrealistic fairy-like appearance wearing that beautiful dress and did not turn around for quite some time. She came back to her senses and her eyes turned red, ¡°I say sister, Mr. Leng is still bedridden. Who are you trying to look good for?¡± She opened her mouth sarcastically. The corner of Luo Xi¡¯s mouth curved faintly. How much Luo Yuyi was feeling disdain now was also how much she would feel regret after seeing Leng Minhang. This woman thought that all the good things in the world were hers. After setting her eyes on Leng Minhang, she even used all her efforts to get him! It was a pity for her that Leng Minhang disliked her to the core. Don¡¯t mention liking her, he didn¡¯t even give her a glance. Perhaps this was the reason why Luo Yuyi was so envious of her. After all, in stark contrast to how he was treating Luo Yuyi, Leng Minhang treated her with softness. Completely different from the rumors outside of how merciless and violent he was. Later on, Luo Yuyi felt that she took away the man who should belong to her, totally ignoring the fact that she was the who says no to this marriage before. ¡°Xixi, move quickly, people are waiting downstairs. What are you dawdling there for?¡± Luo Yang and Mu Qing both felt anxious and said loudly. Luo Yuyi saw this and sneered, ¡°Sister, I bless you a wonderful wedding!¡± Luo Xi was unconcerned, lifted her chin, and spoke with a slight smile, ¡°Thank you for your blessing.¡± Then, under the strange eyes of Luo Yuyi, she walked downstairs. After stepping outside the villa, the residence from the surrounding villa in the area stood on the balcony and looked over. Some young ones who didn¡¯t know what was happening loudly exclaimed, ¡°The bride came out! The bride came out!¡± Then came the sound of adults¡¯ scolding voices. ¡°This child is really beautiful. How come a beautiful child like her has to marry early?¡± ¡°Yeah, no one knows what this family was thinking, but they actually agreed on this.¡± ¡°It is said outside that the other party is very rich. Just look at these luxury cars, each one of them costs a lot of money. The other party must have come from a wealthy family.¡± ¡°What¡¯s the use of being rich? Living as a widow with money, if that is my daughter, I would absolutely not agree with this.¡± CH 46 ¡°This family does not lack money, so how come this happened¡­¡± The surrounding people talked with gossipy voices. At this moment, a person got out of the leading luxury car. Dressed in a white tuxedo suit, the person stepped forward and smiled at Luo Yang and Mu Qing, who were forced to smile as a response. When his eyes landed on Luo Xi, surprise appeared on his face, and then he spoke, ¡°Miss Luo Xi, that¡¯s not right, it should be Young Madam. Today is a very special day, Mr. President has been preparing to fetch you since early in the morning. We give out apologies since we did not inform you about it beforehand.¡± After that, he reached out his hand from behind, revealing a bouquet of flowers before passing it to Luo Xi. Luo received the bouquet of flowers with a pleasantly surprised expression and turned to look at him incredulously, ¡°You, are you trying to say that he¡­¡± She couldn¡¯t stop herself and looked at the luxury car behind him. Luo Yang, Mu Qing, and Luo Yuyi were astonished. Didn¡¯t they say that the Leng family¡¯s young master is still paralyzed in bed? How is this possible? ¡°This, Assistant Xu, has your president¡¯s body recovered?¡± Luo Yang asked incredulously. ¡°That¡¯s right, all because of Young Madam, the president was able to get well in a short time.¡± Xu Guan smiled lightly. Once he heard his words, a look of surprise flashed across Luo Yang¡¯s eyes. If what he said was true, then his daughter wouldn¡¯t need to be a widow after getting married! Different from his pleasantly surprised reaction, Luo Yuyi¡¯s face was like a bottom of a pot, and she even felt flustered for a moment. If the Leng family¡¯s young master really got well from his illness, does that mean that not only will Luo Xi not be a widow after getting married, but she will also become the legitimate young madam of a wealthy family? The hands that were hanging on either side of her body balled up. She initially thought that she could see Luo Xi become a joke for a whole day, but now she found that the person who became a joke is herself! The Leng family, that is the Leng family! Anyone with a tiny bit of relationship with this surname can almost walk across the Yun City! Don¡¯t mention the wife of the heir of the Leng family. Before when the Leng family¡¯s young master still hadn¡¯t encountered an accident, how many people were lining up to climb the door! And now Luo Xi got it so easily? Luo Yuyi took a deep breath. But it doesn¡¯t matter, it was rumored outside that the Leng family¡¯s young master had a ruthless character, not to mention outsiders, even his family members were staying away from him, so they basically didn¡¯t have that much contact with him. The most terrible thing is that he has disposed of many people, and his hands are covered with blood. This kind of man, even if you are married to him, you can only spend the rest of the days living in fear. As she thought of this, Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes flashed a hint of mockery, and she spoke, ¡°Since Mr. Leng is here, why not get off to pick up my sister?¡± Xu Guan replied indifferently, ¡°Although the young master¡¯s body is no longer seriously injured, the doctor has instructed him not to blow the wind, so I can only wrong Young Madam to get in the car with me.¡± He looked apologetically at Luo Xi. ¡°It¡¯s alright.¡± For this matter, Luo Xi is also very clear. In her previous life, Leng Minhang¡¯s health had indeed gotten better after they got married, but he still needed to sit in a wheelchair. She heard that it was because his legs and feet had not fully recovered as before. It¡¯s just a pity that at that time she turned a blind eye to that person and didn¡¯t take this matter to heart. But in this life, it will not be the same. But what Luo Xi did not expect was that he would personally come to pick her up. Her heartbeat accelerated slightly. After all, this is a treatment she never experienced in her previous life. Luo Yuyi heard this and turned even more disdainful. She felt that the other party simply did not put Luo Xi on his mind at all, or else why did he come here but still use this excuse not to get off the car? ¡°In that case, then don¡¯t let him wait. Xixi, hurry up and enter the car.¡± Luo Yang and Mu Qing listened to this, and looked at each other. Afraid that the other party would get impatient, Luo Yang immediately opened his mouth to urge her. CH 47 Luo Xi did not reply and followed Xi Guan in front of the door of the leading luxury car. Luo Yang and Mu Qing started to shed tears at the suitable time, but Luo Xi already had no time to worry about them. She looked at the car window in front of her, her heart thumping crazily. Xu Guan pulled open the car door, and seeing the scene inside, Luo Xi froze. It was obvious that no one was inside¡­ ¡°Young Madam, get in the car.¡± Xu Guan spoke with a slight smile. Luo Yang and Mu Qing, as well as Luo Yuyi, were standing in front and looking at them with inquiring eyes. It¡¯s just that the car window blocked them from seeing the scene inside the car, and they did not have the guts to go forward, so they could only look curiously. Luo Xi, on the other hand, was feeling as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her head. And her heart turned chilled thoroughly in the next second. If Xu Guan said he did not come, she might not think about it deeply. After all, he did not fetch her personally in her previous life. But after saying that he came, but did not see anyone inside the car, she felt that she became excited for nothing. When has the pampered little woman ever been treated like this? It didn¡¯t take long before her eyes became red. Seeing her entering the car, Xu Guan also entered and sat on the driver¡¯s seat. The car slowly drove. He looked at her somewhat unhappy expression and spoke of the reason, ¡°Young Madam, please don¡¯t be sad. The president didn¡¯t make it today to fetch you because of some health reasons. However, I don¡¯t want to let your family assume that the president didn¡¯t place great importance on you, so I answered like that.¡± Luo Xi who had her eyes on the ground and was thinking of something else, paused for a beat, her eyes lit up and she lifted them up to look at him, ¡°I know.¡± Looking from the rearview mirror, Xu Guan felt faintly surprised as he looked at the obviously down Luo Xi to the now bright Luo Xi in a short time. He initially assumed that there would be a lot of dramas upon fetching this young madam. After all, he had long known that the party was unwilling to get married to the president, so he didn¡¯t expect to fetch the person smoothly. Moreover, when she heard that the president had come personally to fetch her, the eagerness and expectation in her eyes didn¡¯t seem to be fake. It was as if she was really happy that he had come, so when she saw that no one was inside the car, she suddenly felt aggrieved. For a moment, he had a feeling that this girl really cared about his president a lot. He took his eyes back silently, no matter what, these things were his master¡¯s own affairs. There¡¯s no need for him to mind them. The car drove across streets filled with people, and passed through the high-rise buildings. Looking at the speedily retreating scene outside the window, a glow began to shine at the bottom of Luo Xi¡¯s eyes. For the time after being reborn, she felt sober. The thought that she really came back to the past finally sinks in. She can change things that haven¡¯t happened yet, and the sad endings years later will never happen again. She will no longer make the same mistakes, will no longer make him angry in different ways, and will no longer fight with him because of small things. In this life, she only wished to be with him in the right way and repay him for the wrongdoings she did in her previous life. Although she may not be able to make up for the troubles she has brought him for the rest of her life. If it wasn¡¯t for her foolishness back then, none of this would have happened. Her eyes became red without her knowing. Her child, who was only three months old, was deprived of the right to live before it could even be born. For a while, she even felt ashamed to face that man. The mistakes she made, even if she died thousands of times, were hard to make up for. She stealthily wiped her tears. Every time she thought of the time when living is worse than dying, she wanted to slap herself badly several times. The car slowly drove into a high-end luxury villa and came to a halt. This villain is located halfway up the mountain, and there is not a single building for hundreds of miles around. The villa occupied a large patch of ground. In her previous life, she had lived in this place for countless days and nights. Coming back here again, that familiar and nostalgic feeling instantly rushed into her chest. CH 48 At this moment, inside the study room located on the second floor of the villa, a man dressed in a black suit with a cold face was standing in front of the window and looking over at the scene downstairs. The car door was pushed open from the inside, revealing his soon-to-be wife, and just like he had expected, she was dressed in a white wedding dress and a crown and was moving step by step to his location. The bottomless eyes glinted with an unknown light for a second, and by the time the girl lifted her head, the man was already nowhere to be seen at the window. The only thing left on the scene was the slightly swaying curtains amidst the wind, as if to remind the people downstairs that someone had just been there. Luo Xi felt a familiar gaze, causing her to look up involuntarily. It was a pity that she didn¡¯t see anyone, so she just assumed that it was her being too sensitive and didn¡¯t think deeply about it. The villa didn¡¯t have a festive atmosphere at all, and the maids around had an expression of indifference on their faces, looking like they had no idea that the owner of the villa was getting married today. Luo Xi was not ignorant of how the Leng family despised her background. If not for the reason that she could rescue Leng Minhang by marrying him, a girl like him might not have the chance to be part of a powerful family like them even after working hard for a whole life. As such, not only did they not hold a ceremony, but they also instructed the people around to keep their mouths shut about this matter. So it was not surprising that no one from the Leng family came to see her. In her previous life, after stepping inside this place, she was so scared looking at the unfamiliar place and people around her. However, Luo Xi knows that these maids are people from the old mansion arranged by the old lady. The people on Leng Minhang¡¯s side still treat her with great respect. The old lady also treated her very kindly when she saw that Leng Minhang¡¯s health really got better after she entered the Leng family. Coming back to the present, she was escorted to the so-called wedding room. It wasn¡¯t Leng Minhang¡¯s room, but a guest room. Luo Xi was very clear about it, but the expression on her face didn¡¯t change in the slightest way. Not a moment later, a knocking sound was heard on the other side of the door. Her face stiffened all of a sudden, and she quickly straightened her feet to open the door. Sure enough, sitting in a wheelchair outside the door was the man she had been wishing to see for countless days and nights, Leng Minhang. Even though he was seated in a wheelchair and was still not fully healed, it didn¡¯t diminish the man¡¯s frightening innate aura. For the first year of their marriage in her previous life, she always stayed away from this man. Then she later discovered that the other party can tolerate many of her petty tempers, and she slowly became close to him. At this moment, Luo Xi would like to directly jump on him, cling herself into his arms, and weep without any care. However, she could not. The present Leng Minhang still didn¡¯t know her. It would aroused doubts if she were to do so. She sniffed, but not a hint of fear could be seen in her eyes, and she even said with a hint of complaint, ¡°Why did you just come here now!¡± Leng Minhang¡¯s rigid and cold face changed slightly, and a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes for a split second. But he soon returned to his former expressionless face and said indifferently, ¡°My bad that I made you wait for so long.¡± Luo Xi listened to his cold words and her heart was flooded with a sour feeling. ¡°Do you like the room?¡± The man asked again indifferently. ¡°No.¡± Luo Xi shook her head without even thinking about it. ¡°Oh?¡± It didn¡¯t come to him that she would be so straightforward, Leng Minhang raised an eyebrow. ¡°Can I pick a new room?¡± Luo Xi rubbed her fingers and asked in a small voice. ¡°Of course you can,¡± Leng Minhang didn¡¯t refuse and lifted his hand, and the smiling butler behind him stepped forward, ¡°Young Madam, I¡¯ll escort you to pick a new room.¡± Luo Xi couldn¡¯t help but look at Leng Minhang. It was as if he understood what she was trying to say, but Leng Minhang refused mercilessly, ¡°If you like it, move in. I have some things to do. I will see you again sometime.¡± Done saying that, someone stepped forward and pushed the wheelchair away. The same as in her previous life, he was still so polite to her. But although polite, it is full of detachment. Luo Xi lowered her eyes sadly and looked at her well-dressed appearance, but the other party¡¯s gaze didn¡¯t even linger on her body. In her previous life, she was indifferent to all these things. But now, she only felt a dull pain in her heart. CH 49 At night, underneath the brightly lit villa, a luxury car slowly pulled up. The butler went forward to open the car door, and two bodyguards moved Leng Minhang, who was in a wheelchair, out of the car. His solemn face looked more and more cold under the bleak night. His careless gaze looked over to the direction of the second floor, faintly swept a glance at it and then took his eyes back. ¡°Speak.¡± ¡°Young Madam, she¡¯s done picking a room, it¡¯s just that¡­¡± The butler opened his mouth with a strange expression. Leng Minhang looked at him. ¡°It¡¯s just that she picked your room, Young Master.¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Leng Minhang lifted an eyebrow. ¡°This, should we prepare another room for Young Madam?¡± The butler asked as he attentively observed Leng Minhang¡¯s expression. It was the first time for the eldest lady of the Luo family to enter the Leng family, and even though the young master ignores her most of the time, he still lets her do whatever she wants. So for a while, everyone had no idea how to treat this young girl. However, they were aware of the young master¡¯s serious obsession with cleanliness and that he never allowed any person to step inside his room except for the cleaning maids. So the butler wanted to let him know about the young girl picking his own room. And it¡¯s certain that it is not going to work. Who expected that the man would curl his lips, ¡°No need, if she wants to move in, let her be.¡± A trace of surprise flickered in the butler¡¯s eyes, ¡°Then how about you, Young Master?¡± Leng Minhang threw a faint look at him, ¡°That¡¯s my wife.¡± Then he proceeded to walk inside the villa, leaving behind the still dazed butler in his position. Although his words were few and short, this already said a lot by declaring his stance and giving warning to them. The young master did not ignore this young girl sent to be his wife intentionally, and instead protected her under his wings. Thinking in this way, it seemed that they had to start looking seriously at this young girl who had just entered the house. Upon entering door, the scene of Luo Xi, who was now dressed in an elegant flower-patterned dress and was carefully standing on the stairway and looking at him, entered his view. ¡°Well, you¡¯re back!¡± Luo Xi spoke with some discomfort. Leng Minhang looked at the untouched fool placed on the dining table and furrowed his brows, ¡°Didn¡¯t eat?¡± ¡°Waiting for you to eat together.¡± Luo Xi subconsciously balled up her hands hidden in her sleeves and whispered. She had almost forgotten how the two of them got along at the beginning, but now that her mindset had changed, she only felt that such a scene was so awkward. Leng Minhang didn¡¯t speak any more and simply lifted his hand. Seeing that, the people behind him pushed him to the dining table. Luo Xi saw this and her eyes brightened up. She quickly rushed as well and sat next to his seat. The surrounding people look at the nose using the eyes, and watch the heart with the nose.1 Such an atmosphere is really weird. The two started to eat without letting a sound. All of a sudden, Luo Xi picked up some vegetables and carefully put them into his bowl. The surrounding people drew a cold breath of air, only to feel that this girl was really seeking death. The young master is known for his extreme obsession with cleanliness. Didn¡¯t she know it beforehand? Even his family didn¡¯t have the courage to do it, and this girl is purely looking for death by having the guts to do it. Everyone didn¡¯t dare to make a sound. They just felt it was a little difficult to breathe. Much to their surprise, the man just stopped for a beat, then expressionlessly picked up the vegetables he disliked the most and ate them. Luo Xi felt slightly relieved, and the tense expression on her face finally disappeared. She poured him another bowl of soup, saying, ¡°Your body has not yet fully healed, drink more soup to quickly heal.¡± Under the crowd¡¯s shocked gaze, the man actually stretched out his hand to receive the bowl. Luo Xi saw this and the smile on the corner of her mouth turned even more sweet, and the action of giving him became more and more brazen. Everyone watched this scene and only felt their hearts jumping in fear. Their mouths opened in an ¡®O¡¯ shape for a long time, but when they noticed that their young master¡¯s face did not get angry, they breathed a sigh of relief. CH 50 The dinner passed with Luo Xi giving him all kinds of food, and after it ended, he went to the study room. Even though Luo Xi intentionally picked Leng Minhang¡¯s room, she didn¡¯t have the courage to move in at all. After all, the two of them were not yet close to each other now, and the butler also told her that he would first seek Leng Minhang¡¯s permission. So when she saw Leng Minhang enter the study room, she returned to her own room. The time ticked off at eleven o¡¯clock. Seeing that it was not early, she pondered about going out and finally wandered outside Leng Minhang¡¯s study room for quite some time. She intended to enter and have a conversation with him, but she was also afraid that she would disturb him. Moreover, school will resume in a few days, and she intended to go back to school by then. In her previous life, she still had to put her life at stake before he agreed to let her go back. Luo Xi can¡¯t do that now. She knows that as long as she shows a little weakness, the man would definitely say yes to her every request. As she continued to wander outside the door worriedly, the old butler noticed her and asked with a smile, ¡°Is the Young Madam looking for the Young Master for something?¡± ¡°I, I want to talk about something with your Young Master.¡± Luo Xi replied hesitantly. This butler was arranged by the old lady, but overall he treated her nicely. It¡¯s just that in her previous life, Leng Minhang had warned her that she must not put too much trust in the people inside this villa aside from him. Even if it was his subordinates. Luo Xi was very clear about how dangerous it was to be the heir of a large family, and all the things around him might be a hidden danger. She couldn¡¯t wrap her mind around it, how could a person like him who was suspicious and vigilant in nature trust her so much? The old butler opened his mouth and reminded her, ¡°The Young Master does not like to be disturbed when he is working, so if there is anything you want to talk with him Young Madam, please wait for him to come out. If you now want to rest, you can tell me you message and I will say it to him on your behalf.¡± Luo Xi furrowed her eyebrows. She wanted to speak with Leng Minhang personally. Although it was true that Leng Minhang disliked people disturbing him while he was working, those people didn¡¯t include her. In her previous life, entering his study room was as easy as entering her own room. He never got angry with her and even liked that she was taking the initiative to go to him. At that time, she took it for granted and didn¡¯t worry about those little things at all. But now as a comparison, she found that the way he treated her in her previous life was already so good. At this moment, the door of the study room was pulled open from the inside without any warning. Leng Minhang¡¯s cold face came into Luo Xi¡¯s view. ¡°Something¡¯s wrong?¡± His voice was clear and unfeeling. ¡°Yes.¡± Luo Xi quickly nodded her head, and then faintly looked at the butler at the side. The butler walked away at the appropriate time. ¡°Come in.¡± The man said indifferently. Luo Xi immediately went after him. Other than the big sandalwood table in the middle and the shelves around that filled with different kinds of books, the overall furnishings of the study room was gloomy. She quickly scanned her eyes around the room and then withdrew her eyes. Leng Minhang halted his movements and gestured for her to take a seat. Luo Xi glanced at the seat and sat down. Sitting opposite her was Leng Minhang, who had a handsome face, but it looked like his face was covered with a layer of ice, causing people to not directly look at him. This strange Leng Minhang, Luo Xi felt some fear. The two of them face each other like this, similar to how prisoners are questioned. Clearly, she is the vulnerable party. ¡°What do you want to tell me?¡± The man questioned carelessly. Luo Xi bit her lips and spoke, ¡°School will start in a few days.¡± ¡°So?¡± What? Luo Xi wanted to glare at him. Wasn¡¯t it obvious that since school will start in a few days, she had to go to school! Her fingers involuntarily stirred together, and her tone turned coquettish without her knowing, ¡°So I want to go back to school. Will you let me go? I will be good.¡± CH 51 In her previous life, she couldn¡¯t stand it after a few days of marrying and secretly ran away. As a consequence, she lost direction in the mountains, and when the sky turned dark, she was so scared that the whole person almost turned crazy. Then Leng Minhang personally led his subordinates to search for her, not minding the fact that his body was still not well, and discovered her in a cave. That was the first time he got angry with her, and instructed her to be locked up and not allowed to go out. Later, the first day of school arrived. She panicked and cried desperately, saying that she wanted to go to school and vowed that she would not secretly run away again, and only then did he let go. The atmosphere in the study room was very quiet. He didn¡¯t say anything, and just looked at her lightly, looking like he was contemplating whether her words were true or not. The atmosphere was so depressing to the point that Luo Xi couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. She said in a soft voice, ¡°You speak.¡± ¡°Really want to go to school?¡± He thought of her messy grades when he checked her information before, and Leng Minhang finally opened his mouth, ¡°You like attending school so much?¡± ¡°Of course!¡± Luo Xi didn¡¯t even think about it and titled her chin before replying. ¡°Heh¡­¡± He laughed lightly, his smile was full of mocking implications. ¡°Don¡¯t laugh, I¡¯m serious!¡± Luo Xi glared at him fiercely and puffed out her cheeks in anger. ¡°It is said that starting from your sophomore year in high school, you haven¡¯t passed a single subject, and you have scored countless single-digit marks. A good-for-nothing student told me that she wanted to attend school, hmm?¡± The last sound carried a few dangerous air. Luo Xi trembled, but then she retorted arrogantly, ¡°What¡¯s the matter with me being a good-for-nothing student? Does it mean that a good-for-nothing student like me can¡¯t attend school? Let me tell you, I¡¯m very smart. I used to be the top one in the class!¡± ¡°Kindergarten?¡± ¡°What?¡± Luo Xi was unable to react for a moment, and then her face went red and she said furiously, ¡°No, it¡¯s the first grade!¡± ¡°Heh¡­¡± Leng Minhang was successfully amused by her. Luo Xi was nearly shaken by his smile she hadn¡¯t seen in a long time, then her tone choked up, and she spoke with some tears, ¡°Husband, allow me to go, okay?¡± Leng Minhang tapped his fingers on the table with a slight beat, and there seemed to be turbulent waves in his gaze, ¡°What did you just call me?¡± ¡°Husband ah¡­¡± Luo Xi was suddenly shocked by his animalistic eyes, and she spoke with some guilt, ¡°Now that we are married, isn¡¯t it natural to call you husband¡­¡± There was nothing about her words, but he always felt that this little girl was hiding something from him. ¡°If not, what else could I call you?¡± Luo Xi observed his expression attentively. ¡°Whatever you want.¡± Leng Minhang took back his eyes, and a flash of unnaturalness fleeted across his face. ¡°Then the matter of going to school¡­¡± She asked with anticipation. ¡°It¡¯s okay, but¡­¡± His slender fingers started to dishonestly tap on the table again, seemingly hitting the hearts of the people around him with every beat. ¡°But what?¡± ¡°But you have to promise that you must pass the next grade, or else you¡¯d better stay honestly at home for me. My wife, Leng Minhang¡¯s wife, is actually a good-for-nothing student? If these words spread outside, where should I put my face?¡± He said with two points of mockery and three points of disgust. Luo Xi curved her lips. She thought, how come you don¡¯t feel embarrassed when this thing happened in her previous life? This small action fell into the eyes of the man, and he unconsciously twitched the corner of his mouth, ¡°Right?¡± Luo Xi nodded, then felt wrong, and shook her head quickly, then assured, ¡°I will certainly do it.¡± ¡°Go back and rest.¡± Leng Minhang heard this and took his gaze back. Then he spoke indifferently. ¡°Does it mean you¡¯re saying yes?¡± Luo Xi¡¯s eyes glowed and she looked at him with sparkling eyes. CH 52 ¡°You can also pretend that I didn¡¯t say yes.¡± He said casually. Too dark-hearted! Luo Xi couldn¡¯t stop herself and shot him a fierce look. Then she proceeded to leave indignantly, but after moving two steps forward, she turned back and asked with a fawning smile, ¡°I picked a large room today, just the color inside is too depressing for my liking. Can I change it?¡± Leng Minhang furrowed his brows, ¡°No.¡± ¡°So you are saying I can move in, but can¡¯t change the color inside?¡± Luo Xi inquired with a thoughtful expression. ¡°As long as you don¡¯t regret it, you can move in anytime.¡± The smile on the corner of the man¡¯s mouth suddenly changed. Luo Xi shrank her neck, and then said desperately, ¡°I will never regret it!¡± After speaking, she rushed out, leaving behind the man who had a slightly shocked expression on his face. Luo Xi hummed a little song, and moved her things little by little to someone¡¯s room. Everyone saw her bold action and they all sucked a breath of cold air. But they didn¡¯t have the courage to speak any more. They only glanced at her for a short time, and quickly left with their heads bowed down. The things that Luo Xi brought over are not much, just a few of her favorite clothes. Leng Minhang¡¯s room has a large cloakroom filled with different kinds of suits and leather shoes he owns. They are all brand new and spotless, similar to a clothing store. It was a pity that it won¡¯t be long before she will occupy a place here. Looking at the several dresses she owned hanging inside the cloakroom, which looked indescribably strange but also added a sense of softness to this cold and tense atmosphere, Luo Xi let out a satisfied smile. Finishing tidying up, she picked up her pajamas and headed to the bathroom, anticipating more and more what the man would look like when he saw her lying on his bed. Did he always assume that she didn¡¯t know it was his room? Just thinking about it, the corners of Luo Xi¡¯s mouth couldn¡¯t help but curl. She was taking a shower when she heard the sound of someone entering the door. She quickly dressed herself in pajamas and got out of the bathroom. Leng Minhang was pushing his wheelchair into the room by himself. Luo Xi saw this, and she quickly walked in his direction with the intention of giving him a helping hand, but was stopped by the other party raising his hand. ¡°Why are you here¡­¡± Luo Xi pretended to ask unintentionally. Leng Minhang swept a faint look at her and became more and more certain that this little one was doing it on purpose. But he didn¡¯t tear her facade, and spoke indifferently: ¡°Since you picked this room, this is our wedding room, why can¡¯t I come?¡± Luo Xi listened to him saying the words wedding room, and her face became slightly flushed. She thought of how the two of them were still not close to each other, so it was not good to scare people by being too active. So, she coughed and pretended to be reserved, saying, ¡°I, I¡¯m not ready yet.¡± As expected, the man spoke coldly: ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I have no interest in children.¡± He even looked up and down at Luo Xi, his tone full of disgust. Luo Xi: ? ? ? ? How come she had a feeling that Leng Minhang¡¯s mouth was so poisonous in this life? Is it her own illusion? A little depressed in her heart, she retorted, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m not interested in Uncle either.¡± Leng Minhang: ¡­¡­ A silence descended upon the room. Leng Minhang went inside the bathroom. Luo Xi was slightly anxious about the condition of his legs and feet, so she quickly went after him and said, ¡°I¡¯ll put hot water for you.¡± He didn¡¯t refuse, but looked silently at the busy Luo Xi, and suddenly opened his mouth, ¡°I¡¯m twenty-seven this year.¡± ¡°What?¡± Luo Xi was adjusting the temperature of the water and didn¡¯t get what he meant for a while. Leng Minhang, however, changed the topic straight away: ¡°Go out.¡± Luo Xi couldn¡¯t wrap her mind about how she offended him, but the tone of his voice, it was a bit cold just now. A frown appeared on her face, and seeing that the water was almost ready, she instructed: ¡°You be careful.¡± Then she got out. CH 53 By the time Leng Minhang got out of the bathroom, a person was already lying and sleeping on his bed. His quilt, which was usually tidy and arranged, was folded into several folds by her, and her long black hair was scattered everywhere. A disgusted expression appeared on Leng Minhang¡¯s face for a split second. He fixed his eyes on this girl who was not aware of her surroundings and felt a little helpless. He moved in her direction and pulled the quilt to cover her exposed little feet. Then he looked at her sleeping face for a long time before he got out of the wheelchair. He stood up, turned and went outside of the room. Inside the study room, looking at the tall man who was standing in front of the window, the man standing in the middle and dressed in a strong suit with a serious expression reported, ¡°Master, the young miss of the Luo family is indeed different from what we checked before, but these changes seem to start after she got out of the hospital. Before, her parents were very biased towards the youngest daughter, causing Miss Luo to suffer a lot of grievances. After she fell into the river and was saved, her personality changed greatly. Her younger sister ate a lot of loss in her hands, and we also discovered that starting from the time she woke up, she didn¡¯t resist the matter of marrying like before.¡± ¡°Oh? Fell into the river, how did she fall into the river?¡± A crease appeared on the man¡¯s forehead, and a touch of coldness flashed in his eyes. ¡°It is said that it was because of a fight with her sister at school. She was pushed down by her sister, and her sister didn¡¯t intend to rescue her. Perhaps this is the reason why the two became hostile to each other.¡± Leng Minhang remained silent. He just lifted his hand, indicating for him to leave. ¡­ In the blink of an eye, it had been three days since she arrived at Leng¡¯s house. Leng Minhang hadn¡¯t returned since the first day he showed up. Luo Xi sat alone downstairs, feeling bored after eating a hearty breakfast, and finally knew why she was so eager to leave this place in her previous life. This is too boring! Feeling a little depressed, she couldn¡¯t help but ask again, ¡°Is your Young Master coming back today?¡± The butler listened to the words he had heard many times for the past three days, but still shook his head with a smile, ¡°Young Madam, the Young Master¡¯s whereabouts are uncertain, and he might return at any time. Don¡¯t worry, if you miss the Young Master, you can give him a call, and I think Young Master will return by then.¡± He said comfortingly. Luo Xi hooked her lips. She thought, if she dared to call Leng Minhang and say that she misses him, he might mistake her as a demon and burn her. Who doesn¡¯t know that she was so desperate not to marry him before? Now they had only been married for a few days and she says she misses him. Don¡¯t talk about others, even Luo Xi herself doesn¡¯t believe it. After eating breakfast, she went back to her room and opened her phone to scroll on Weibo. All of a sudden, Luo Xi¡¯s face changed after seeing a popular post. The person who sent the tweet was none other than Luo Yuyi. In her previous life, it was not wrong to claim that Luo Yuyi was a famous inspirational internet celebrity since she had a poor life history. In college, she is already an established internet celebrity who has millions of fans, changing from a sparrow into a phoenix. As such, when posting something online, there will be millions of views with countless likes and reposts. And her Weibo post this time is: ¡°My sister got married today. Although parting is very sad, I am really happy for her and hope that she is also happy.¡± Happy for her? Luo Xi felt that Luo Yuyi was indeed very happy. She always thought she had married a dying man, and that it wouldn¡¯t take long before she became a widow, so how could she not be happy? Because she was following Luo Yuyi on Weibo, she quickly saw her post the moment she opened Weibo. What followed next were the puzzled comments of her young fans. CH 54 Piggy Girl: ¡°Didn¡¯t my baby Yiyi say before that she and her sister are twin sisters? Baby Yiyi you¡¯re only twenty years old this year. Gosh, your sister got married so early. Is she planning to stop going to school?¡± Cat Girl: ¡°That¡¯s right, how come she gets married all of a sudden?¡± My Goddess is Baby Yiyi: ¡°Whisper bb: Usually in a situation like this where the girl gets married early, it¡¯s most likely because the girl got pregnant first. No need to guess it any more.¡± President Ba1 and His Little Wife replied to the upstairs2: ¡°I also think upstairs is right.¡± Eldest Brother: ¡°+1.¡± This comment has the most likes, and all the people online were tagging and mentioning Luo Yuyi about the truthfulness of the matter, but Luo Yuyi remained silent. When the fans saw this, they even felt more that their guess was right, and scolded Luo Xi with contempt. They also ran to her Weibo account to make malicious comments, and even messaged her privately, saying not to drag down their goddess, how could Baby Yiyi have a shameless sister like you, and other unpleasant words. Luo Xi was not in the mood to scroll in Weibo in her previous life, so it was natural that she had no idea about the content of Luo Yuyi¡¯s post, let alone the fact that this woman had completely destroyed her reputation without her knowledge before! Setting her eyes on the dozens of fans on her Weibo, most of whom were black fans, a glint appeared in Luo Xi¡¯s eyes. She reposted Luo Yuyi¡¯s Weibo post, with a caption of: ¡°Thank you, Mr. Leng¡¯s house is very beautiful. I like it very much here. Sister, thank you for your blessings.¡± The following content is a full body photo of herself in the mirror. Luo Xi especially looked for a close-fitting dress, so her figure on the phone looked very perfect, with no ounce of fat at all. Having a figure like that, how could she be pregnant? On the contrary, a lot of people followed Luo Yuyi¡¯s Weibo account just to see her. Before long, there were dozens of comments below. ¡°This figure looks very good. Not at all like a pregnant woman, so there¡¯s no way she¡¯s pregnant.¡± ¡°I also have the same thought that a pregnant woman shouldn¡¯t have this kind of figure.¡± ¡°Perhaps she has already given birth?¡± ¡°Impossible, gave birth after being married? At the very least, a process is needed. A couple who are only married for two months already has a baby, it doesn¡¯t make sense.¡± ¡°That¡¯s true.¡± ¡°Am I the only one who thinks this sister has a great figure?¡± ¡°So beautiful, but it¡¯s a pity she didn¡¯t reveal her face.¡± ¡°A girl who doesn¡¯t reveal her face should be treated like Qiao Biluo3.¡± ¡°Just how come she was so young when she got married? Sister, don¡¯t you want to go to school anymore? You must be at your college looking at your age.¡± ¡­ Most of the following comments on the screen were discussing the reason why she got married early, and whether she was pregnant or not. Luo Xi didn¡¯t come out to say the reason behind the false pregnancy, because it wouldn¡¯t take long before the truth about this matter would be revealed. However, regarding the matter of marriage, she especially posted another Weibo post, ¡°Regarding the questions about me getting married early, it must be because Mr. Leng is so handsome that even God felt jealous about it. I can¡¯t wait to hide him inside my pocket so that no one can snatch him in the future. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity delivered itself into my hands by fate, how could I possibly allowed it to escape?¡± At the end of the sentence, a picture of a handsome man crying is inserted. Upon seeing this reply, the people online found it hard to say anything. After all, when encountering someone you like, it¡¯s not wrong to make the first move. It¡¯s just that Luo Xi¡¯s speed is too fast. Some people also felt that her words were too unrealistic, saying that there¡¯s a man who¡¯s so handsome that even God felt jealous. They can¡¯t simply imagine it. Does a person like that really exist in this world? As a response to the crowd¡¯s doubts, and to those who asked Luo Xi to show a photo as evidence, Luo Xi only replied: ¡°I will show it to you when I have the chance.¡± And so, this attracted a lot of people¡¯s attention. CH 55 It didn¡¯t come to Luo Xi that she would gain hundreds of followers just by scrolling on Weibo in her room for the whole morning, and felt an indescribable mood. For those people who commented malicious words excessively, she directly blocked them, without exerting too much effort. As for the others who only said some bad words, she did not pay attention to them. Not all of them ade bad, at least there are still plenty of people who are reasonable. This caused Luo Xi to feel slightly relieved. Just when she finished replying to a comment, the phone rang. The caller number showed that it was her mother¡¯s phone number. This was the first call she got from her family after getting married for a few days. In her previous life, it seems that this phone call also happened during this time. The difference is, at that time, she was shedding tears similar to a crazy, and her family ended the call after saying a few comforting words to her. A glint appeared in Luo Xi¡¯s eyes, and she answered the call. ¡°Hey, Xixi, how are you doing over there? Yiyi told me that you¡¯re in good condition there. Have you seen the young master of the Leng family?¡± With a loving tone, Mu Qing asked. ¡°Yes,¡± Luo Xi replied indifferently. ¡°Really? How¡¯s Mr. Leng? What about his treatment of you? Mu Qing asked eagerly. ¡°He¡¯s very good, and he treats me very kindly.¡± ¡°Then I am relieved. Good daughter, you must listen well and don¡¯t make Mr. Leng angry. In the future, if you can make Mr. Leng like you, it will be a big help to our family. You are also aware that your father¡¯s company has not been able to operate in the past few years and needs external help. Mom and dad can only depend on you in the future. You must do everything Mr. Leng wants and let him support your dad, you know?¡± Mu Qing spoke in a low voice. Luo Xi sneered, sure enough. It was exactly the same as the previous life. Upon hearing these words at that time, she felt completely cold. Before she can have the time to process all of this, she was asked to start getting benefits for her family. They didn¡¯t even consider her feelings by asking her if she liked it or not. The moment she disagreed, they began complaining that she didn¡¯t see them as her parents at all, saying that she can¡¯t even help them with such a small thing. A touch of irony appeared on the corner of Luo Xi¡¯s mouth, but the tone of her voice was very well-behaved, ¡°I know.¡± ¡°It¡¯s really my good daughter.¡± When she heard her agreeing, Mu Qing was so happy, and she added, ¡°Today is the third day of your marriage, and it¡¯s also the right day to visit your family¡¯s house. How about you ask Mr. Lee and see if he is willing to accompany you go back, so that mon and dad can prepare in advance?¡± ¡°Mr. Leng has something to do, so he may not be able to accompany me. But my books are still there at the house, so I¡¯ll go back there for a visit.¡± As she thought of going back to school in a few days, Luo Xi¡¯s mood inexplicably improved. The lessons she has left behind over the years must also be reviewed again, she added silently. Who expected that the moment these words came through Mu Qing¡¯s ear, she quickly scolded, ¡°Books? What do you want to do with books? Are you still thinking of going to school? I¡¯m telling you, be a good girl and stay at home. Don¡¯t think about all those nonsense. You¡¯re married, yet you¡¯re still having thoughts of studying? Listen to your mother, don¡¯t go there! Do you get it?¡± The tone of her voice carried a force that didn¡¯t accept any refusal. Luo Xi inhaled deeply, controlled the rising anger in her chest, and replied, ¡°It was Young Master Leng who asked me to go.¡± The other party seemed to fall silent for a few seconds, then smiled again: ¡°So it¡¯s like that, then you can go if you want. However, you¡¯re not allowed to fool around in school, okay?¡± Luo Xi¡¯s eyes were cold to the core, ¡°Got it mom, I still have things to do, I¡¯ll hang up first.¡± After disconnecting the phone call, Luo Xi threw the phone to the side. CH 56 Just how come she was so adamant in thinking that Mu Qing and Luo Yang would one day save her from this place in her previous life? She felt pity for herself just thinking about it. Go back home? In her previous life, she did not go back to the Luo¡¯s house, and Leng Minhang provided her with new books to cover up the books she left in the Luo¡¯s house. This time, she will go back and bring all her things back with her. Then she will never set foot on that place again in the future. But if she plans to go back, she must first seek Leng Minhang¡¯s permission. Thinking of this, she put her hands on the phone she had thrown aside, clicked on the phone number she had placed at the top of the address book, and paused for a few seconds before calling it. After ringing twice, the person on the other side of the phone answered the call. A cold voice sounded: ¡°Hello?¡± Not hearing the impatience in his tone, Lip Xi breathed a sigh of relief. She opened her mouth, ¡°This, I, I want to go home and bring my books back¡­¡± She initially assumed that the man would either disagree decisively or order his subordinate to get it, so she was very surprised when he did not reply for two seconds and said, ¡°Okay.¡± After saying that, he threw a question back, ¡°Are you coming back tonight?¡± Naturally, Luo Xi didn¡¯t have the intention of staying for long at Luo¡¯s house. At the very least, she only wanted to stay there for a meal then go back, so she replied, ¡°Yeah.¡± He probably had no idea that today was the day she would go back to Luo¡¯s house. That¡¯s right, it was simply impossible for a highly person like him to care for little things like this. Besides, she never told it to him in her previous life. Even though he treated her very kindly at the start, Luo Xi was well aware it was all just him being polite. Her eyes became downcast and she looked extremely pitiful, but in the next second she heard him speak: ¡°Want me to accompany you back?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you have something to do? If you¡¯re not free, you don¡¯t have to do it. I¡¯ll be back soon anyway.¡± Luo Xi was unable to react for a moment, then she rushed to say. The other side didn¡¯t speak anymore, just told her to find the butler if she needed anything. Disconnecting the call, Luo Xi flops weakly on the bed. A hint of unbelieving look flashed in her eyes. After an unknown amount of time, she sat up again, removed her clothes and changed into casual wear. She then fixed her eyes on her ruddy appearance in the mirror and the corner of her mouth hooked up slightly. In her previous life, she spent her days living in this place as if life was worse than death, resembling a ghost. But now that her mind had changed, even her face looked rosier. Sure enough, the state of mind determines everything. The butler has already readied the car and is waiting downstairs. Luo Xi originally thought that she would need to hail a taxi to go back, but she didn¡¯t expect Leng Minhang to have already prepared everything. Inside the car trunk, she also noticed a bunch of gifts. She didn¡¯t know when they were prepared. But then her mood also improved inexplicably when she saw this. Not because Leng Minhang did this so she can go back with face, but also because it means that he put her into his heart when he did this. ¡°Young Madam, this is Xiao Hei. He will be your personal driver from now on.¡± The butler stepped forward and said. Behind him was a young man who had a serious face and wearing black suit. He stood up and bowed slightly, saying, ¡°Greetings, Young Madam. I¡¯m Hei Ze, just call me Xiao Hei in the future.¡± A tinge of surprise appeared in Luo Xi¡¯s for a split second. Xiao Hei! This person is one of Leng Minhang¡¯s subordinates. Not only is he very skilled, but he is also very protective of his master. As Leng Minhang¡¯s wife, it¡¯s not strange to say that she is surrounded by a lot of malicious people, and it is Xiao Hei who saved her countless times from dangers. The last time she saw him in her previous life was when she was about to follow Luo Yuyi out of the villa. He once asked Luo Yuyi to let him go with them, but Luo Yuyi didn¡¯t agree, saying that it was not necessary since he would only drive by then. Luo Xi also thought about it and felt that what she said was right, so she stopped Xiao Hei. CH 57 If she hadn¡¯t stopped Xiao Hei back then, perhaps all the tragedies that followed wouldn¡¯t have happened. Unfortunately, it is useless to talk about it now. Her past self can¡¯t be saved, and she can only use the future time to change and make up for it. A sigh escaped from her lips and she said, ¡°Hello, Xiao Hei.¡± ¡°Hello, Young Madam.¡± The other party greeted her back in a respectful manner. ¡°Let¡¯s get going then.¡± ¡­ Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the Luo family¡¯s villa. Inside the villa, Mu Qing and the rest who heard the noise outside rushed out to welcome them with smiles, but after seeing that it was only the eldest daughter who got off of the car, the smiles on their faces faded away. ¡°How come you come back alone?¡± Only the eldest came back. For them, this was tantamount to the Leng family¡¯s young master not valuing their daughter. It goes without saying that their hearts weren¡¯t too happy. ¡°Haven¡¯t I told you before that I would come here to bring back my books?¡± Luo Xi naturally noticed the disappointment that appeared in their eyes for a split second and smiled coldly in her heart. ¡°For this matter, you still have to come back personally? Can¡¯t we just have someone send it over to you? Really, don¡¯t run to your natal family¡¯s house when there¡¯s something wrong, otherwise how will people outside think about it?¡± Mu Qing said with dissatisfaction. Luo Xi didn¡¯t say anything. At this moment, Luo Yuyi, who was holding an apple and dressed in fancy clothes, walked out. ¡°Oh, sister, why did you come back? It must be because you angered Mr. Leng and were sent back, right?¡± She pretended to say unintentionally. Upon hearing Luo Yuyi¡¯s words, both Luo Yang¡¯s and Mu Qing¡¯s faces changed. They questioned her with a gloomy face, ¡°Xixi, you honestly explain it, did you provoke Mr. Leng?¡± If she was really sent back by Mr. Leng, where would their Luo family put their face in the future? The couple¡¯s faces became ugly to the extreme. At this time, Xiao Hei, who was standing behind Luo Xi, spoke up, ¡°Young Master didn¡¯t accompany Young Madam to go back because he was busy with something, so don¡¯t think too much about it.¡± Only then did the people from the Luo family see that there was a cold-faced young man that looked like a bodyguard behind her. ¡°This one is?¡± Luo Yang and Mu Qing exchanged looks with each other. They initially assumed that he was just an ordinary driver. ¡°I¡¯m the bodyguard personally assigned by Young Master to protect Young Madam.¡± Xiao Hei faintly introduced himself. The two became a little surprised after hearing this. Just the two words of ¡®personally assigned¡¯ alone could make one feel that Mr. Leng was placing great importance on Luo Xi. It looks like they are only overthinking things? The two instantly put on a smile again. ¡°Che, it¡¯s just a driver and bodyguard.¡± Luo Yuyi felt a little jealous in her heart. The two of them were the same, but Luo Xi still took a bodyguard with her when coming out. She sure is delusional by thinking that she is some kind of big shot. She muttered disdainfully. Luo Xiao faintly swept a glance at her and withdrew her eyes again. Then she turned back to gesture to Xiao Hei to bring out the gifts. Xiao Hei opened the trunk door of the car and threw a look at the gifts loaded inside. Luo Yang and Mu Qing had their mouths opened in the shape of ¡®O¡¯, their joy overflowing. ¡°Aiyo, why did you bring so many gifts? We are all family, no need to be polite!¡± A look of anger appeared on her face, but her eyes couldn¡¯t help but darting in the direction of the beautifully wrapped gifts. A trace of irony fleeted across Luo Xi¡¯s eyes. ¡°Quickly let the child enter the house. Xixi, it¡¯s been hard on you for this period of time. Mom and dad had the kitchen prepare your favorite dishes, hurry up and enter the house.¡± Although Leng Minhang not coming back with Luo Xi made Luo Yang feel a bit disappointed, he could understand that it was already good enough for a person of his status to do this despite meeting his daughter for a short time. CH 58 ¡°Right, right, look at me, I got carried away by happiness.¡± Mu Qing lifted the corner of her lips, and quickly instructed the maid to bring the gifts inside the villa. The words that came from her mouth were very polite, but the action of receiving the gifts was very informal. Luo Xi remained silent and stepped inside the villa. Sitting at the dining table, Luo Yang and Mu Qing kept asking her about the things inside Leng¡¯s house. Luo Xi had only seen Leng Minhang once in total for the past few days, so she didn¡¯t have much to say. She just casually replied two perfunctory sentences as a response and stopped talking after that. Luo Yuyi was opening the gifts, and it was somewhat strange that she didn¡¯t come over to pick a fight. But after opening all the gifts, her mood became unsatisfied. Even though the gifts were worth a lot of money, they were nothing more than some bracelets and well-known paintings, nothing at all that someone her age could use. Slightly disgruntled in her heart, she joined them at the dining table, complaining as she did, ¡°Brother-in-law is really not attentive enough. He didn¡¯t even prepare a gift for me, his sister-in-law. Sister, why didn¡¯t you remind brother-in-law? Is he even aware that you have a sister?¡± The chopsticks held in Luo Xi¡¯s hand stopped for a second, ¡°Maybe he really has no idea about it. How many gifts should be given and what gifts should be given are something that I, the new daughter-in-law, can¡¯t control. Big families dislike people who are too strong. Eldest sister wouldn¡¯t dare to take this risk just because of a gift. Dad, don¡¯t you think so?¡± Her clear gaze fell on her father, seemingly asking him if what she said was true or not. ¡°What Xixi did is correct. Now that you just married over, with Mr. Leng not having an affection for you yet, and you being sent there to be his wife, the best thing to do is to not contradict his decisions, lest you provoke him. Yiyi, you don¡¯t lack anything and a gift is just a gift. If you want to buy something, dad will give you money so you can buy it yourself.¡± Luo Yang creased his forehead and lectured. Luo Yuyi involuntarily gritted her teeth, ¡°I know! I¡¯m just asking. Right, sister, school will begin in two days. I heard mom say that you¡¯re going to school, is that true?¡± She inquired carefully. Luo Xi nodded faintly. ¡°But will Mr. Leng agree to let you go out and show your face? After all, your reputation in school is very bad, so I¡¯m worried about¡­¡± While speaking, she carefully took a peek at Luo Yang. Without any surprise, after hearing what she said, Luo Yang¡¯s face became black like the bottom of a pot. ¡°What bad reputation? Are you talking nonsense?¡± ¡°Dad, I¡¯m not talking nonsense. You have no idea, but every student in the school knows that sister likes the school grass. I¡¯m worried that my sister wants to go back to school because of this and rekindle her old feelings. If that happens, or if rumors about my sister being a promiscuous woman who still fooled around outside despite having been married, the Leng family will definitely be furious once they get news of it. It is said outside that big families like to save face the most. If they sent back sister in a fit of anger, then won¡¯t our family be humiliated to death?¡± Luo Yuyi spoke with a concern look on her face. ¡°Xixi, is what Yiyi said true? You really like that what-grass at school!¡± Luo Yang opened his mouth angrily. ¡°Of course not. There is such a thing? How come I didn¡¯t know it.¡± Luo Xi looked up at Luo Yang with an extremely surprised face, her expression clueless and no one could discern if was lying or not. Doubts appeared in Luo Yang¡¯s eyes, and when he was about to speak, he heard her say, ¡°Dad, you are also aware that your daughter is the school belle in school, so it was inevitable to be associated with that man who they called the school grass and create a gossip between us.¡± ¡°Most of the people who spread these false words are probably jealous of your daughter¡¯s beauty, since they have ugly faces and can¡¯t get in touch with people like the school grass, so they did this thing to vent their dissatisfaction.¡± CH 59 ¡°I¡¯ve encountered a lot of people like this, and all they have is their mouth. If we really choose to believe their words, isn¡¯t this tantamount to giving them what they want? There is a saying that rumors stop in front of a wise man. I have faith in dad that he won¡¯t be fooled by these false words, since he is very smart. Besides, that school grass isn¡¯t even good-looking, so I don¡¯t like him.¡± She said with a disdainful look. Luo Yuyi quickly opened her mouth with the intention of refuting her, but it was as if Luo Xi had guessed what was on her mind and cut her off first, saying in dissatisfaction, ¡°And you, Yiyi, no matter how you don¡¯t want it, I¡¯m still your sister. After hearing these rumors, you not only defended me, but also have the courage to bring this topic up and ruin your sister¡¯s reputation. You doing this, what good does it bring to you? I initially thought that since you grew up in the countryside you would be more mature and well-behaved, but it looks like I was only overthinking.¡± Upon hearing this, Luo Yuyi¡¯s face turned green with anger, and she said furiously, ¡°There are no waves without wind1. Sister, if you¡¯re really innocent, why do people talk about you instead of others? Besides, I also got this news from others. Who knows if it¡¯s true or not!¡± ¡°Haha,¡± Luo Xi let out a light laugh, ¡°You believe whatever others say, are you a dog raised by others, so obedient?¡± ¡°You!¡± Luo Yuyi shrieked with a sharp voice, then turned to look at Mu Qing pitifully, ¡°Mom, you heard it, she even said I¡¯m a dog! Is there anyone who says that to their sister?¡± Mu Qing also frowned in dissatisfaction, ¡°Xixi, how can you say that to your own sister!¡± ¡°Mom, I¡¯m educating my sister not to listen to rumors and gossip indiscriminately. What the others say is what they say, but for my sister, it¡¯s like she heard something bad, not knowing the fact that others are only using her as a tool to spread gossip!¡± Luo Xi swept a meaningful look at Luo Yuyi whose expression was distorted, and spoke faintly while looking at the other party¡¯s eyes that wanted to spit fire, ¡°With a character like that, sooner or later, she will meet a bad ending. I know that is the flesh of your heart and that I should keep quiet, but she has to understand the truth. It¡¯s fine for me if she spread rumors about me now, since we are sisters after all. I won¡¯t get angry with her about this small thing. However, the same can¡¯t be said to another person. If she spread rumors about a young miss of some big family, then wouldn¡¯t she face a bad ending?¡± ¡°Xixi has a point. Yiyi, you should also reflect on this. You¡¯re not allowed to spread rumors like what you did just now, got it?¡± Luo Yang instructed strictly. Mu Qing was also dumbfounded by these words from Luo Xi. When did the eldest daughter become so eloquent that even she couldn¡¯t refute it? Her husband had also said it, and it would truly be unreasonable if she chose to side with the younger daughter again. But in her heart, she still held some dissatisfaction with the eldest daughter, and she couldn¡¯t say the reason. Anyway, she disliked the current eldest daughter who is strong and eloquent. Looking at her youngest daughter begging for her help, her resentful feelings grew. Luo Xi didn¡¯t care about the changing expressions of the people around her, and after eating, she got ready to go upstairs. ¡°Mom, sister is not taking this opportunity to stay here and not go back, right?¡± Luo Yuyi who ate a loss at Luo Xi¡¯s hands inhaled deeply in her heart. Seeing Luo Xi climb upstairs, she whispered to the somewhat dissatisfied Mu Qing. ¡°She dares!¡± Mu Qing heard this and turned furious in an instant. They are still depending on Luo Xi to obtain the trust of the young master of the Leng family, so that he could promote the Luo family¡¯s company in the future. If Luo Xi dared to be disobedient, then not only the benefits that they could get from the Leng family would be gone, but they might also annoy the Leng family and become unlucky as a result. CH 60 So, not long after Luo Xi stepped inside her room and started to pack her books, Mu Qing came to her door and said with a somewhat arrogant tone, ¡°Xixi, what are you doing here in your room? I¡¯m telling you, hurry up and return to Leng¡¯s house. Staying here for a long time, aren¡¯t you afraid that the people over there will be dissatisfied?¡± Luo Xi stopped for a bit when she heard this. Usually when a person goes back home once, shouldn¡¯t it be that their parents are unwilling to part ways with them and would try their best to encourage them to stay? How come after coming here, her mother was afraid that she wouldn¡¯t leave? Placing the schoolbag on the bed, she opened the door and lazily said, ¡°Mom, it¡¯s now late today. I will go back tomorrow.¡± Luo Yuyi, who was standing behind Mu Qing, added fuel to the fire, ¡°I see that sister didn¡¯t want to leave? Is it because Leng¡¯s house is not fun?¡± ¡°No, you are married and still staying at your natal family¡¯s house. Hurry up and return to Leng¡¯s house, don¡¯t dawdle.¡± Mu Qing was also dissatisfied. Luo Xi faintly said, ¡°If I¡¯m not mistaken, then today is the day I got back home. It¡¯s normal for me to come and stay at home for one day after going back, isn¡¯t it? Mom, how come your driving your daughter out instead? Could it be that as people say, a married daughter is like a splashed water and that¡¯s why mom doesn¡¯t intend to recognize me as a daughter anymore?¡± A hint of guilt flashed in Mu Qing¡¯s eyes. Annoyed, she said, ¡°What are you talking about? Mom is doing this for your own good. Your situation is different from others. If you can¡¯t get the attention of Mr. Leng, it¡¯s the same as marrying in vain, you know! How can you be so stupid? How many times does mom have to tell you that you can¡¯t be capricious!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, if I¡¯m the one in your place, even if I don¡¯t like Mr. Leng, I wouldn¡¯t do such a thing as staying at my natal family¡¯s house without the intention of leaving. Sister, I¡¯m not lecturing you as a younger sister, but you¡¯re really wrong in this matter. Hurry up and return there. I will go with mom to visit you if there is time.¡± Luo Yuyi¡¯s mouth said words of concern, but the expression on her face couldn¡¯t be more smug. Luo Xi lifted her eyes and swept them to the faces of the two, one frowning in dissatisfaction, the other gloating. ¡°I know.¡± She stopped talking after this, and instead only nodded obediently as a response. Hearing this, Mu Qing¡¯s expression finally improved for a bit. Different from Mu Qing¡¯s expression, Luo Yuyi¡¯s mood was a bit bad. After all, the situation didn¡¯t develop in the direction she was expecting. Shouldn¡¯t it be Luo Xi making a big fuss and insisting on not wanting to go back, causing mom to be angry with her? How come she agreed so easily? It gave her a feeling of punching hard only to feel like hitting a cotton, and it was not a very pleasant feeling. Luo Xi had just got downstairs with her schoolbag when the sound of cars driving from the outside entered her ears. Luo Yang, who was watching TV and sitting on the sofa, stood up with doubts, ¡°Who¡¯s coming so late at night?¡± Just after this sentence was said, a servant outside rushed inside with a terrified look on his face, ¡°Master Luo, there are several cars coming from outside. You should go out and take a look.¡± Upon hearing this, Luo Yang¡¯s face changed slightly, and he rushed out to receive the guests. Mu Qing and Luo Yuyi also exchanged glances and went after him. This scene greeted Luo Xi, who had just arrived downstairs. A flash of doubt appeared in her eyes. Putting the schoolbag on her back, she also followed. Outside the door, three black luxury cars with snowflake logos pasted on them stopped at the entrance of the Luo family¡¯s villa. As soon as Luo Yang saw this logo, his entire body froze. Wasn¡¯t this the Leng family¡¯s logo? Could it be that Mr. Leng came here to look for his daughter? Or perhaps his daughter ran away secretly today and was found out by him, so he came here to look for trouble? The moment he thought of this possibility, his face instantly became ugly. CH 61 ¡°Who is it that comes late at night?¡± Mu Qing went after Luo Yang. When she saw that he was standing frozen at the door, she looked over with doubts, and also froze in her spot upon seeing the three luxury cars blocking the entrance of the villa. Two expressionless men walked down from the driver and front passenger seat respectively, they opened the door of the back seat and helped the man in the wheelchair get off of the car. Even though the man was sitting in a wheelchair, when he got out of the car, the air around him seemed to freeze in the next second. His indifferent and profound face did not have the slightest expression, and the cold and heavy atmosphere in his body seemed to combine with the darkness of the night, permeating a mysterious and dangerous air. The crowd subconsciously held their breath. Just who is this man? The face is exquisite and the three-dimensional features look like they have been carved by God. Below his sharp sword-like eyebrows are a pair of eyes that are deep as ink, causing people to not directly look at him. The two tall and powerful bodyguards behind instantly became a backdrop. Clearly, the man was sitting in a wheelchair, but he gave the crowd a feeling of looking down on all sentient beings. Luo Yuyi¡¯s entire body went numb. Is this the legendary cold-blooded devil who takes the lives of people without blinking an eye, the new husband of her sister who was the rightful heir of the Leng family, and also the president of a multinational group of companies? The Leng family¡¯s eldest young master, Leng Minhang? How, how could this be! A trace of madness appeared in her eyes for a split second. This kind of man, who can make all the women fascinated with him in an instant, should be hers! Her hands which were hidden in her sleeves balled up involuntarily, her nails sinking into the skin. At this moment, Luo Yuyi could only feel a strong wave of remorse surging in her heart. Aside from Luo Yuyi, Luo Xi¡¯s entire body also froze. It never came to her that Leng Minhang would personally come over. But different from others who were frozen on their spots, she came back to her senses quickly. ¡°Young Madam, Young Master has come to fetch you back.¡± At this time, Xu Guan stepped forward and spoke. Like a switch, this sound woke up the people from the Luo family, and they turned to look at Luo Xi in shock. Luo Yang also came back to his senses. He had once seen Leng Minhang, but only from afar. This was the first time he had seen him so close up, and it caused his legs in tremble in fear. When he heard Xu Guan say that Leng Minhang had come here to fetch his eldest daughter, he was stunned for a while, and then a surge of surprise welled up in his heart. Could it be that this young man truly put his own daughter in his heart, or else why did he ignore his health and personally come here to fetch her? He initially thought that the eldest daughter had provoked the other person and that Leng Minhang was annoyed and came here to look for trouble. Luo Yang¡¯s mouth couldn¡¯t be close at all from smiling and he rushed to welcome them, saying, ¡°Son-in-law has come. We didn¡¯t know that you would come here, so we didn¡¯t make any preparations, it¡¯s really embarrassing. Good son-in-law, quickly enter the house to sit in.¡± Leng Minhang lifted his hand and lightly refused, ¡°There¡¯s no need for that. It¡¯s already late, I will come back here again when I have time. I¡¯ll take Xi¡¯er home first.¡± Xi¡¯er, he called her Xi¡¯er? Luo Xi¡¯s eyes suddenly widened, feeling slightly incredulous. It must be known that this name was only used by him after their relationship got better in her previous life. Later, when the two of them became more and more intimate with each other, he called her by the names Little Xi, baby, and wifey. She just didn¡¯t expect that the progress in this life would be so fast. A hint of eagerness appeared in her heart, and she quickly carried her schoolbag on her back, saying innocently as she walked over, ¡°Husband, mom and sister are urging me to go back, and you came here!¡± CH 62 The way she called her husband this time seemed a slip of mouth, but it was as if she had been using that word thousands of times already, and surprisingly there was not the slightest sense of incongruity. The corners of Leng Minhang¡¯s lips lifted faintly, and he smoothly took over the schoolbag in her hand. His eyes faintly glanced at the mother and sister she was talking about, and he said in a low voice, ¡°Auntie and uncle are not happy that Xi¡¯er is back? So anxious to drive people away in the middle of the night, and not caring if she would encounter danger?¡± In these words, there were a few hints of coldness. Luo Yang and Mu Qing quickly shuddered. Luo Yang had no idea about what happened, so he directed an inquiring look at his wife. Mu Qing also didn¡¯t expect this Mr. Leng to be this nice to her eldest daughter, and she immediately stepped forward to give an explanation, ¡°We don¡¯t mean this, we are just afraid that son-in-law would worry about Xixi, that¡¯s why we asked her to go back earlier.¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Leng Minhang threw a look at her carelessly. His expression didn¡¯t change at all despite seeing the fawning look on her face. ¡°How come you¡¯re so insensible! Xixi, your mom didn¡¯t mean it so stop being angry with her. It¡¯s already so late, since Mr. Leng has also come over, why don¡¯t you both rest here for tonight?¡± Luo Yang was afraid that Leng Minhang would be dissatisfied with them because of this, and quickly motioned for Luo Xi to speak some good words. Luo Xi lifted her eyes and swept a glance at her parents who had different expressions on their faces, as well as Luo Yuyi who was still immersed in the shock after seeing Leng Minhang, and the corner of her mouth hooked up, ¡°Of course I¡¯m not blaming mom, I just feel that I happily went back to mu home but was driven away by my mom and mu sister, so it¡¯s natural that I will be hurt. However, I¡¯m aware that mom is only doing this for my own good, so I won¡¯t be angry. As for the matter about dad letting us stay overnight, forget it. My husband¡¯s body hasn¡¯t recovered yet, and the environment here is not good. I¡¯m afraid that he won¡¯t get used to this place. Later when his body finally recovered, we will come back.¡± Leng Minhang passed Luo Xi¡¯s cute little beat schoolbag to the bodyguard behind him, and faintly said to Luo Yang who was still intending to speak again, ¡°Uncle, then I will take Xi¡¯er and leave first.¡± Luo Yang didn¡¯t dare to open his mouth again, and only spoke to Luo Xi with a look of reluctance, ¡°Xixi, remember to come home often, okay?¡± Luo Xi nodded and entered the car. It wasn¡¯t until several luxury cars left the Luo family villa one by one that the crowd came back to their senses. Luo Yuyi was going crazy with jealousy, and when she saw that the people had left, she furiously accused her parents, ¡°Mom and dad, how could this happen! You guys lied to me, didn¡¯t you?¡± Luo Yang and Mu Qing were taken aback and turned to look at her in confusion after glancing at each other, ¡°Yiyi, what¡¯s the matter with you?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you say before that Mr. Leng will soon die, so how come he is still alright now! Are you two only thinking of letting my sister enter the Leng¡¯s house so you lied to me. Is that right?¡± Luo Yuyi was unreconciled and screamed with a loud voice. As soon as she thought about the fact that such an excellent man should have been hers, but she is forced to push him to the person she hated the most, her heart felt like swallowing a large mouthful of black blood, almost corroding her heart! Upon hearing her words, Luo Yang turned furious, ¡°You¡¯re talking nonsense! We are not clear about the specifics of Mr. Leng before, and the information we got was only that. Who knows that he actually has been cured? Moreover, this is a good thing. Before you were blaming us for forcing you to marry and would rather die than to marry Mr. Leng. You can only blame yourself for what happened now!¡± He was also aware that the youngest daughter was feeling envy, but who knew that there would be big changes in the future? The two of them were both his daughters, and either one of them would live well after marrying into the Leng family. Besides, they were also allowed to make their own choices before, so it is useless to say anything now! CH 63 ¡°Yiyi, what are you doing¡­¡± A frown also appeared on Mu Qing¡¯s face as she stared at her youngest daughter who was looking at her and grumbling about this matter. She didn¡¯t know why, but perhaps she was regretting it after knowing that Mr. Leng¡¯s health was fine? Luo Yuyi indeed regretted it until her intestines turned green. Particularly after seeing how that man looks at Luo Xi with a pampering expression. How much she wanted to replace Luo Xi at that time! Luo Yuyi turned to look at her parents who were looking at her with dissatisfaction, stomped her feet hatefully, and turned around to run upstairs. In a blink of an eye, it was now the first day of school. Luo Xi woke up early in the morning, changed into her school uniform, and tied her hair in a casual way. She looked at her young and soft figure in the mirror, and the corner of her mouth curled faintly. Then she carried her schoolbag downstairs. Sitting already at the dining table was Leng Minhang who was dressed in a high-fashioned suit, but the food on the table was left untouched, as if he was waiting for her to eat together. After he took her home last time, he disappeared again for some unknown reasons. It is clear that his feet and legs still haven¡¯t recovered yet, but she always loses sight of his tail and only sees the dragon¡¯s head1, causing her to have no opportunity to spend more time with him as much as she wanted. Late at night yesterday, she heard the sound of the car, but at that time she was too sleepy, so she didn¡¯t get up to see the situation. Now it looks like it should be him who has gone home at that time. He hadn¡¯t gone back to sleep after she occupied his room. Is it because he didn¡¯t want to be in the same room as her? When she thought of this, the good mood she had this morning after knowing that school was about to start suddenly vanished. She pursed her lips and sat on the seat far away from him. This action caused Leng Minhang to freeze slightly. The surrounding people turned to look at this scene with unbelievable expressions. Thinking inwardly about whether the two had a fight. In normal times, they would see this young madam pestering the eldest young master to sit next to her, but today she sat on a seat far away from him. Lifting his eyes, the girl¡¯s obvious look of dismay came into his view. Leng Minhang had no idea what things he did that caused her to be angry, but he was not good at talking, not to mention coaxing a little girl to be happy. After eating breakfast, Luo Xi stood up with a pout and threw out a sentence, ¡°I¡¯m going to school first.¡± Then she proceeded to head out while carrying her small schoolbag. Their school uniform was the same as Jk¡¯s2, and it was only now that Leng Minhang noticed her exposed thighs. Luo Xi has been dancing starting from when she was still a little, so her body proportion is very good. At the age of twenty, her height measured about 166 centimeters with a weight of about ninety pounds. Her figure could be considered perfect with two long and slender white legs. The length of the skirt is only up to the thighs, and looking further below, you can see stockings and shoes. The one pair of white thighs is exceptionally blinding. He frowned and opened his mouth, ¡°Wait.¡± Luo Xi looked back at him with doubts and didn¡¯t say anything. ¡°I¡¯ll send you over.¡± He withdrew his gaze silently, then faintly said. ¡°No need, Xiao Hei can just send me over. Don¡¯t you still have to go to work?¡± As soon as Luo Xi, who was still a little angry, heard this, the gloom on her face quickly disappeared and was replaced by a bright smile. ¡°It¡¯s on the way3.¡± The man didn¡¯t give her an opportunity to say no. After dropping this sentence, he pushed the wheelchair himself and left without saying a sound. So it was on the way? Luo Xi was happy for nothing, and her heart became even more depressed. Even though she had been together with Leng Minhang for three years in her previous life, she had never stepped inside his company, let alone know its exact location. Looking at the man¡¯s back, she hurriedly chased after him. The person driving the car was still Xiao Hei together with another bodyguard. Luo Xi swept a faint look at it. It was Leng Minhang¡¯s personal bodyguard. He looked quite handsome, but a heavy and dark aura was flowing out of his body. He was called Anan, and she heard that he was an orphan picked up by Leng Minhang to be trained since childhood. However, she was not too familiar with these people who were Leng Minhang¡¯s subordinates. CH 64 In her previous life, she was afraid of getting into contact with them, so every time she encountered them, she would stay away and dare not to go near them. So she was only slightly familiar with Xiao Hei. Anan could only feel a chilling air that was getting colder and colder on his back. Sensing his own young master¡¯s death stare as well as the young madam¡¯s curious gawking, his expressionless face twitched a little. Young madam, this subordinate begs you to quickly withdraw your gaze, okay? The school¡¯s distance from Leng¡¯s house is not far, just more than ten minutes away. Arriving at the school¡¯s entrance, Luo Xi got off of the car and waved her hand at Leng Minhang, ¡°Then I¡¯ll go in first.¡± Leng Minhang felt the gazes frantically moving towards her after she got off of the car, and his face went cold. With a faint sound, he responded to her lightly, ¡°Hmm.¡± When she saw that his expression looked bad, Luo Xi furrowed her eyebrows and wanted to say something, but saw that he had already indifferently closed the car window. She was taken aback for a while, then the smile on her face suddenly vanished into thin air. After stopping for two seconds, she turned around and stepped inside the school. It was only after her figure disappeared behind the school gate did Leng Minhang withdraw his gaze. When one stood outside the car, the scene inside could not be seen, but from the perspective inside the car, everything outside could be seen clearly. He saw with his own eyes how the smile on her face vanished when she didn¡¯t get his response. There was a moment of regret. ¡°Master, there¡¯s an important meeting at eight thirty.¡± Anan said a few words of reminder. To tell the truth, the young madam¡¯s school was on the opposite route from the company, and although they couldn¡¯t guess their young master¡¯s intention of hiding it from young madam, they could feel that the young master valued this young wife of his. Leng Minhang nodded, and the car turned a corner and drove back in the direction it came from. Luo Xi was in the third class of sophomore year. Because she studied relatively early when she was still a little, she was now only eighteen years old despite being in her sophomore year. Her grades from childhood to high school are quite good, but when she became more and more fond of dancing, her studies became less important to her. Slowly, she fell behind in school, and her father could only send her to college using money. Even though a lot of students were wasted, she had a solid foundation and was clever when she was a child, and her memory had always been strong. As such, Luo Xi believed that as long as she focused again on studying, she could still have good grades and go back to what she used to be. In this life, she won¡¯t be a person who achieves nothing and has nothing. The morning sunlight shone on her eyes, causing her to squint her eyes. Her eyes swept to the rows of school buildings before stopping at a certain place. The corner of her lips curled faintly, and with a lift of her foot she walked over. This time, no one would bully her anymore. Luo Yuyi and Luo Xi are in the same class, but then, the class is arranged accordingly to the grading ranking, so since Luo Xi is at the bottom of the class in terms of grade, her seat is at the back. On the other hand, Luo Yuyi¡¯s seat is in the front because of her good grades, not to mention that she is also the class monitor. Ning Mengmeng was holding a makeup mirror and brushing her face with makeup. She opened her mouth to ask, ¡°Yiyi, is it true that Luo Xi was married?¡± Luo Yuyi, who was reading a book like a good student, pinched her hand that was holding the book and tightened it violently. This matter have completely become a torn in her heart, so when she mentioned it, a fire surged in her heart. She inhaled deeply and said, ¡°It¡¯s been a long time since she was married. I talked about it on my Weibo post, didn¡¯t you see it?¡± Hearing the unwillingness in her tone, Ning Mengmeng was somewhat surprised. After all, Luo Xi had married someone. Shouldn¡¯t Luo Yuyi be the one who¡¯s the happiest? She had been hanging out with Luo Yuyi for a long time, and it was also clear for her that this woman was not as innocent as she appeared to be. She was so jealous of her own sister¡¯s beauty, so she took the opportunity to establish a good relationship with her. ¡°What¡¯s wrong, how come I feel like you are not happy?¡± CH 65 The girl on the other side was also surprised and asked, ¡°So, is your sister not going to school anymore?¡± Hearing this, Luo Yuyi¡¯s expression improved slightly, but she still shook her head and replied, ¡°My sister said she would still go to school to study.¡± Upon hearing that they were talking about the sensitive topic regarding Luo Xi, the surrounding people gathered around them. ¡°No way, a person still have the nerve to go back to school after marrying someone? Is she not afraid of being a laughing stock?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. I¡¯m not trying to be bad, but when it comes to the topic of being a school flower1, she¡¯s really the one with the worst reputation I¡¯ve ever seen. You know, the people from outside schools are despising our school.¡± ¡°I say, I really agree with this. The previous school flower was not only skilled at piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, she was also skilled in everything. How come when it comes to Luo Xi, everything gets crumbled? Her grades are at the bottom of the class, not to mention that she also can¡¯t do anything.¡± As soon as everyone talked about this, they all laughed out loud. As soon as Luo Xi became the school flower, all kinds of black materials were brought to light, such as entering the school through money, being vicious to her younger sister who was the same age as her, stalking and confessing to the school grass but was rejected, and so on. These are nothing. The matter of marrying is the reason why Luo Xi has become a famous laughing stock. ¡°Stop saying that, no matter what she is also my sister. It¡¯s just that she has been spoiled by our parents since she was young, causing her character to become like this. I believe that there will be a day when she will realize her wrongdoings. These words, it¡¯s really not good to say this as a younger sister.¡± Luo Xi said with a struggling face. The surrounding people let out a sigh. Luo Yuyi gave them the feeling that she was sorry for saying too much about her sister. It is clear that she is a daughter of a rich family, but because of an unexpected event, she lived more than ten years of her life in a bitter way. It¡¯s so bad that even after going back, she still has to protect her sister¡¯s reputation who has just gotten married. When the two were put side by side, Luo Yuyi instantly became the well-behaved and understanding sister. As for Luo Xi, everyone is full of disgust just thinking about her. At this time, someone in the classroom suddenly cried out in alarm. ¡°Oh my god, there¡¯s a beautiful woman. Look! There¡¯s a big beauty who just passed by our classroom door!¡± Someone with a pen in his mouth and sitting in boredom jolted without any warning when he saw a tall girl with an exquisite side profile walking past the window. He closed and opened his eyes again, and after seeing that he saw it right, he jumped up with a startled cry. ¡°Where is it, where is it?¡± The students who were on the same table as him heard the commotion, and they quickly looked over. ¡°Hey! It looks like she¡¯s coming into our classroom!¡± Several boys excitedly looked over, and sure enough, a fairy-like figure halted at the classroom¡¯s entrance. These boys were fascinated at the sight of a beautiful woman, but now that they saw it was Luo Xi, their eyes went wide. The reputation of the school flower is not for nothing. Luo Xi held a lollipop in her mouth and swept her eyes at the people around her, and after her eyes fell on Luo Yuyi who was surrounded by everyone, she faintly withdrew her eyes and walked directly to the classroom. ¡°She, is she Luo Xi?¡± The boy who exclaimed loudly just now felt weird and asked in confusion. As soon as everyone laid their eyes on Luo Xi¡¯s face, they also froze. Speaking of which, don¡¯t know who told Luo Xi before that the school grass likes mature girls who can paint their faces with makeup and dress up fancily, but she followed all of them. So, the young Luo Xi brought a lot of mature clothes, one set everyday, and painted her face with heavy makeup and dressed up like a literal flower. The originally beautiful face turned ugly by seven to eight points. Every time the people around her looked at her pink face full of powder, they couldn¡¯t help but feel disdainful. Thinking that an ugly girl like her was the school flower, they gradually ignored the beautiful face under the thick covering of makeup. This is also the reason why the boy didn¡¯t recognize her at first glance. Luo Xi didn¡¯t pay attention to them and walked straight towards her seat at the corner. CH 66 It was only then did everyone came back to their senses after being shocked. Only that their faces still wore a look of surprise. What is happening here? How is it possible that after getting married, Luo Xi became a good girl? She even stopped wearing thick makeup and obediently put on the school uniform. Even though the crowd were extremely baffled, they had to admit that the Luo Xi now deserves the title of school flower. But when they thought of her messy past, they couldn¡¯t but feel disdainful again. What¡¯s the use of looking pretty? Inside, isn¡¯t she just an extremely notorious woman? But even so, the gazes that were frantically moving towards Luo Xi¡¯s body were still a lot. The morning¡¯s class soon ended. Luo Xi really overestimated herself, because after only one class, her eyelids began to fight up and down. If it was before, she wouldn¡¯t have hesitated to sleep straight away on the table, but now that she had reached an agreement with Leng Minhang to raise her grades, she needed to listen to the lesson. Luckily, she can still understand the lesson despite feeling extremely uncomfortable. This made Luo Xi feel a lot more at ease. As soon as the class ended, she rushed to the restroom to wash her face. Just after she stepped inside the cubicle, several voices that were slightly familiar with her entered her ears. ¡°What do you guys say about how Luo Xi¡¯s face is so thick? She actually has the guts to go back to school again. Could it be that she¡¯s still hoping to capture the school grass¡¯s attention?¡± ¡°It¡¯s quite obvious, but you really have a point. Isn¡¯t it circulated outside that the person she married to was a dying man? After the man dies, the money as well as his assets will fall into her hands. When that happens, who will care about who she will be with in the future?¡± ¡°She sure does have high confidence in herself. With that kind of behavior, is she still expecting that she would be able to grab the school grass¡¯s attention with her worn-shoes1 self?¡± ¡°I heard that she was the one who was married to the man¡¯s family. If the man really died after the marriage, do you think people will see her as a scourge and kick her out?¡± ¡°Haha, what you said is correct. But look at how advanced the world is now, yet you still believe in things like that? I bet that he will die before a month can even pass!¡± ¡°A month is too long. So, I bet he won¡¯t live more than ten days.¡± ¡°That¡¯s too ruthless, haha!¡± At this moment, the cubicle was violently pushed open from the inside. Luo Xi walked out with a half smile. She looked at her several female classmates, and spoke with a low voice, ¡°Bet?¡± ¡°You¡­¡± None of them expected her to be in the restroom as well, so they were extremely surprised. After being surprised, a wave of embarrassment couldn¡¯t help showing on their faces. They carefully surveyed Luo Xi¡¯s face, in the hope that they would see an embarrassed expression on her face. A pity is, things didn¡¯t go after their wish. Luo Xi¡¯s face was still the same bland expression she had from the start. ¡°There is a price to pay for betting. What is your price?¡± ¡°What?¡± The three girls looked at each other and froze slightly. ¡°I said, you have to pay a price for using my man as an object of your betting. Or how about this, since you bet that he will die in ten days, then I will bet one month. In a month, not only will he not die, but his body will also go back to its former healthy state. When that time comes, you have to kneel down for me and call me dad. What do you think?¡± The corner of Luo Xi¡¯s mouth rose slightly, and she walked to the sink and said with indifference. ¡°Who is afraid of whom!¡± The three girls were instantly annoyed upon hearing her provocative words. Who in the school doesn¡¯t know that Luo Xi married someone who was going to die? Besides, this piece of news came from her own sister, so how could it be false? The few girls just took it as her last effort to save face. Luo Xi shook off the water from her hands and curled her lips at them, ¡°Then let¡¯s wait and see.¡± Afterwards, she turned around and left the restroom. The girls were exasperated by her attitude, but a trace of uncertainty and hesitation flashed on their faces. CH 67 What does Luo Xi mean by this? Will that man really recover? ¡°What are you afraid of? Even if it turns out to be true, so what? Want us to kneel down for her? She¡¯s dreaming! To think that she already sees herself as a marvelous person after getting married to a wealthy man. Heh, she¡¯s just a bitch!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, look at her arrogant countenance. Just where did she get the guts to say such words? It¡¯s really seeking death.¡± ¡°Sister Meng, we have to find a way to deal with this stinking woman!¡± The girls continued to discuss in the restroom while Luo Xi went back to the classroom. Just after she stepped inside the classroom, Luo Yi came over and invited her: ¡°Sister, we¡¯re going to the cafeteria to eat. You come with us to eat together.¡± Luo Xi initially wanted to say no, but when her eyes swept over to one of the girls following behind Luo Xi, who was looking at her in a disgruntled manner, she paused for a moment and then agreed. Luo Yuyi¡¯s popularity in the class was very high, but the ones who were really the deal were Ning Mengmeng and Jiang Yanyan. At the last party, Jiang Yanyan didn¡¯t go. The Jiang family, although not ranked in the four major families, the background behind them is very powerful. Whether it is business or politics, the Jiang family has a right to speak. And Jiang Yanyan¡¯s identity is that of the only young lady of the Jiang family. She is loved by thousands of people and is very good in every aspect. The only downside to her is her bad character, so no one has the courage to go against her. In addition, she will only make friends with people who are equally good as hers. Luo Yuyi was naturally the first candidate. But Jiang Yan Yan might never know how badly this so-called good friend of hers would harm her in the future. Jiang Yanyan has a fianc¨¦ she is very fond of who is a senior in school. It is a pity that this senior greatly admired Luo Yuyi, and what she doesn¡¯t know is that the two began to get ambiguous after she introduced them to each other. Luo Yuyi maintained an ambiguous relationship with the man, while she continued to be a good friend to Jiang Yanyan on the surface, so Jiang Yanyan didn¡¯t suspect her a bit. Later, the Jiang family experienced an unfortunate event. Not only did this fianc¨¦ of hers not help her, he even invested a lot of money just to withdraw it again and harvest a lot of benefits in the process. In her most hopeless time, he ruthlessly pushed her. Her parents passed away, and her brother got into prison. The girl couldn¡¯t withstand the huge changes in the family, as well as the betrayal of her fianc¨¦, and took her own life. The news has it that she took her own life by slitting her wrists while lying in a bathtub, so when her body was found, it was already stinking. At the time, this piece of news had been on fire on the internet for several days. Luo Xi was not clear about the specifics at that time and only felt it was a pity. It was only later that she discovered that Luo Yuyi had already hooked up with Jiang Yanyan¡¯s fianc¨¦ long ago, and he also later became Luo Yuyi¡¯s right-hand man, which brought a lot of help to Luo Yuyi. Even with that change in the Jiang family, Luo Yuyi had a hand in it. Jiang Yanyan may never know that she has been a chess piece since the start. Luo Yuyi was especially fond of hanging out with people who came from good families because she knew that the benefits it would bring her were enormous. But at the same time, these people would only be stepping stones for her to climb up the ladder. She, Luo Xi, was one of those stepping stones, and so was Jiang Yanyan. Luo Yuyi was a woman who would do anything for her benefits. Jiang Yanyan¡¯s character is actually not that unpleasant. The problem is that she is too simple and only looks at the surface of everything. If it hadn¡¯t been for Jiang Yanyan¡¯s fiance¡¯s withdrawal of money as well as the suppression that caused the Jiang family to fall down, she might still be the worry-free young lady of a wealthy family. Maybe it¡¯s because the two of them died in the hands of Luo Yuyi, but an idea suddenly appeared in her mind, and this idea is to let Jiang Yanyan see clearly Luo Yuyi¡¯s true face. CH 68 But if she remained willful in liking that cheating guy and still very trusting of Luo Yuyi¡¯s words, then there was nothing Luo Xi could do. Ning Mengmeng and Jiang Yanyan both furrowed their brows upon seeing that she would go eat dinner with them. The former was disdainful, and the latter was dissatisfied. For someone like Luo Xi, who was a bad and good-for-nothing student and had a bad reputation, Jiang Yanyan hated it the most. But she wouldn¡¯t have thought that in the years to come, her life would greatly change because of this hated person. There were four girls in the group, with each one being prettier than the other. But after looking once, their eyes all landed on Luo Xi. A lot of people have only heard Luo Xi¡¯s name but have never met her in person. Even if they had, she was just a ¡®school flower¡¯ who had an ugly appearance before, and they had long forgotten about her. As such, they couldn¡¯t help but be startled when they saw Luo Xi, who was a beauty that suddenly appeared in the group. ¡°Yanyan, Yiyi, are you going to eat?¡± Just after they went downstairs and passed by the basketball court, two boys dressed in uniform came to them. The one who asked them was the very sunny and handsome boy at the front. What a coincidence! Speaking of the devil, and he comes. This person is Zhu Zhao, who is Jiang Yanyan¡¯s fianc¨¦. He gave people the feeling of being sunny in an illusory way. Behind him is a person Luo Xi felt slightly familiar with, but she just couldn¡¯t pinpoint who he was. He has dark skin, a tall and powerful figure, and it looks like he is a person who exercises a lot. Looking at him for the first time, people will think that he is too plain and even somewhat scary, but after a long time, they will discover that he is actually attractive the more they look at him. Just as she expected, the moment Jiang Yanyan saw her fianc¨¦ coming, her aloof and icy expression turned into a flushed look, and she opened her mouth to ask, ¡°Brother Zhao, you¡¯re back after playing basketball?¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t it obvious?¡± Zhu Zhao seemed a bit impatient with her and said nonchalantly. Then he spoke softly to Luo Yuyi, ¡°Yiyi, it¡¯s been a while since we last saw each other! You¡¯re still beautiful as always.¡± The corner of Luo Xi¡¯s mouth twitched. They are clearly being blatant to each other, so how come Jiang Yanyan still couldn¡¯t see it? Is she blind? She fixed her eyes on Jiang Yanyan but noticed that she was standing there with a vexed look on her face, seemingly affected by Zhu Zhao¡¯s harsh words just now and completely unaware of Luo Yuyi¡¯s ambiguous expression while talking to Zhu Zhao. On the other hand¡­ Luo Xi¡¯s gaze landed on the boy behind Zhu Zhao, and the corner of her mouth hooked up. This is really intriguing. ¡°Huh? This beauty is?¡± After chatting with Luo Yuyi, Zhu Zhao quickly noticed Luo Xi, and a flash of awe fleeted across his eyes. With his eyes pinned on her, he asked. ¡°This is my sister Luo Xi, did you forget? You¡¯re a member of the basketball club, ah?¡± Luo Xi asked with a feigned surprise. ¡°Luo, Luo Xi?¡± Zhu Zhao froze. He looked through his memory to see if he knew her, then his face changed for a few seconds, as if he didn¡¯t expect it to be her at all. Luo Xi initially became a member of the basketball club in order to chase after the school grass, and this incident became a big deal at the time. Everyone in the school has heard about it, but when they saw Luo Xi¡¯s crude way of dressing as well as the thick makeup on her face, they felt sick to their stomachs. So how could Zhu Zhao think that this fresh little beauty now is her? Luo Yuyi and the others are also not bad. Dressed up beautifully, they became little beauties, but with Luo Xi as a comparison, they all seem to be lacking. ¡°That¡¯s right, senior, you have a bad memory. My sister has been in your basketball club for more than a year now.¡± Luo Yuyi scolded. ¡°This, it¡¯s my fault. Her appearance at that time was just too different from now.¡± Zhu Zhao scratched his head and said in a somewhat apologetic tone. ¡°Sister, you won¡¯t blame the senior, right?¡± Luo Yuyi covered her mouth and smiled as she asked Luo Xi. Luo Xi looked up at them, ¡°Do I know him?¡± Everyone: ¡°¡­¡± CH 69 Zhu Zhao¡¯s face showed a hint of embarrassment, then he smiled and introduced himself: ¡°That¡¯s also true. Previously, you were only focused on the school grass, and you barely noticed the rest of us, so naturally we didn¡¯t get to know each other.¡± He laughed lightly. Luo Xi didn¡¯t want to have much to do with this scumbag, so she tugged at the corner of her mouth in response. When he saw that she didn¡¯t seem interested in talking to him, Zhu Zhao withdrew his gaze with an uninterested expression. What¡¯s the use of looking pretty? It¡¯s not like she was his type anyway. His gaze couldn¡¯t help but fall on Luo Yuyi, whose eyes contained autumn waves and were as gentle as water, and he opened his mouth to say, ¡°Let¡¯s go and have a meal.¡± A group of people came to the cafeteria together. The Noble University¡¯s cafeteria was still relatively luxurious, with a wide variety of dishes. While the taste might not be perfect, there were still plenty of people dining in groups. Luo Xi used to like cooking because of Leng Yuan, and after that, she never came to the cafeteria again. In normal times, she would either go back to the dormitory or bring her lunch in the morning. She knew she was so obsessed with Leng Yuan back then, knowing that he didn¡¯t like her, yet she still made a couple¡¯s lunch to give him while keeping one for herself, thinking it would make her slightly satisfied. As for whether he ate the lunch or not, Luo Xi had no idea. Now, she was no longer that stupid girl she used to be, so naturally she wouldn¡¯t spend her effort trying to please a man who didn¡¯t like her and could even be said to dislike her. The six of them managed to fill a table. Zhu Zhao walked over carrying two bowls of soup and sat beside Luo Yuyi, passing the soup to her and Jiang Yanyan, saying, ¡°I brought your favorite soup.¡± ¡°Thank you, Brother Zhao.¡± ¡°Thanks, senior.¡± Jiang Yanyan blushed as she accepted the soup, but Luo Yuyi acted normal. Ning Mengmeng said with a hint of sourness, ¡°Senior, how come there¡¯s no portion for me and Luo Xi? You are being biased, ah.¡± She rarely comes to the cafeteria to eat and usually eats with her boyfriend outside, but they had a fight recently, so she followed Zhu Zhao¡¯s cafeteria. Noticing Zhu Zhao¡¯s actions, she jokingly complained. ¡°Of course there is, I¡¯ll go get it for you now.¡± Zhu Zhao smiled and stood up. Initially, he couldn¡¯t carry so much, so he intended to come back and ask if they wanted any, but he didn¡¯t expect Ning Mengmeng to take the initiative to open her mouth. However, when he went over, he quickly returned after a while, empty-handed. He helplessly said, ¡°It¡¯s all gone. I¡¯m really sorry.¡± ¡°What? No way, the people here also want to drink soup!¡± Hearing this, Ning Mengmeng couldn¡¯t help but grumble. At this time, Luo Yuyi spoke up, ¡°Mengmeng, you have mine.¡± When Ning Mengmeng heard this, her eyes immediately lit up. ¡°Really?¡± ¡°Of course, who made us good sisters?¡± Luo Yuyi smiled softly. Good sisters? Sitting beside them, Luo Xi raised an eyebrow. How come she never saw her being so filial to me, her own sister? A strange thought suddenly appeared in her mind, but it was quickly ignored. ¡°Yiyi, I see that your face doesn¡¯t look so good, and it looks like you¡¯ve lost weight again. Eat more to replenish your body. As for you Yanyan, why don¡¯t you take the initiative a little? Isn¡¯t Mengmeng your good friend?¡± Zhu Zhao on the side looked ata Jiang Yanyan with some dissatisfaction. Clearly, they were all girls, so how come there is such a big difference when it comes to her? ¡°I¡­¡± Jiang Yanyan¡¯s face turned somewhat unsightly. No matter who was told such words by the boy they liked, that wouldn¡¯t feel comfortable. She didn¡¯t take the initiative to give it to Luo Yuyi because it came from him. How could she bear to give it to others? CH 70 Unexpectedly, in his eyes, it became evidence of her own selfishness. ¡°You¡¯re right, then I¡¯ll give it to you, Mengmeng.¡± She smiled awkwardly and pushed the bowl of soup towards her. Ning Mengmeng was carefree as well. When she saw her action, she moved over without hesitation, saying good words to her as she did. ¡°Yanyan, you¡¯re so nice. I won¡¯t stand on ceremony then.¡± At the side, Luo Yuyi scolded Zhu Zhao playfully, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter who gets it. We¡¯re all good friends.¡± Zhu Zhao smiled and took a seat. At this moment, another boy came over with a bowl of soup in his hand. His eyes swept across the group, and he opened his mouth to ask, ¡°Who wants it? I¡¯ve got an extra one.¡± Jiang Yanyan was in no mood to say anything at the moment. Luo Xi took the initiative and said, ¡°I don¡¯t like soup. You can give it to Jiang Yanyan.¡± The boy nodded, and without waiting for Jiang Yanyan to refuse, he had already put it in front of her. Then he sat down and started eating without caring for his image. Her expression became somewhat indescribable. After looking quickly at Luo Xi, she took her eyes back. ¡°Yiyi, we have a basketball game coming up. Why don¡¯t you and your friends be our cheerleaders? You and your friends are beautiful with excellent figures. It will definitely boost the morale of our basketball team!¡± Zhu Zhao talked to Luo Yuyi while eating. ¡°Ah, isn¡¯t that embarrassing? I¡¯ve never done it before.¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright, it¡¯s not that complicated. Someone will guide you when the time comes.¡± ¡°Okay then.¡± Luo Yuyi¡¯s face became flushed, and she agreed. Luo Xi looked at the two of them, who were almost leaning against each other. She shook her hands holding the chopsticks without any trace, causing the chopsticks to fall on the flour with a clatter. No one noticed her little action. She bent down to get the chopsticks and then looked at them as a trace of irony flashed in her eyes. Sure enough, just as she suspected She placed the chopsticks with a heavy force on the table, making the people around her turned their eyes on her. They furrowed their brows and questioned, ¡°What are you doing?¡± Luo Xi had a solemn expression on her face as she looked at Luo Yuyi disapprovingly. ¡°Yiyi, why didn¡¯t you tell your sister that this senior is your boyfriend?¡± Then amidst the crowd¡¯s stunned gazes, she said sorry to Zhu Zhao: ¡°Ah, I¡¯m really sorry, senior. If I had known that you were dating my sister, I wouldn¡¯t have been so cold to you before.¡± Luo Yuyi¡¯s expression immediately changed, and she reprimanded, ¡°Sister, why are you talking nonsense? Senior and I are just friends!¡± ¡°You still want to deny it to your sister? I¡¯m your real sister. What¡¯s wrong with telling me? You don¡¯t have to worry, I won¡¯t say a word to mom and dad.¡± Luo Xi spoke with some dissatisfaction. Feeling Jiang Yanyan¡¯s incredulous gaze as well as the weird looks from the surrounding people, Zhu Zhao coughed and explained, ¡°Luo Xi, there really isn¡¯t anything between your sister and me. It¡¯s just that we get along very well because of Jiang Yanyan. Please don¡¯t misunderstand.¡± Upon hearing his explanation, Jiang Yanyan¡¯s face eased slightly. To their surprise, Luo Xi¡¯s emotions suddenly intensified. ¡°How come you are holding my sister¡¯s hand just now? I saw it when I got the chopsticks on the floor. Even if you are good friends, you should know the boundaries between men and women. You¡¯re trying to shrink responsibility for my sister, don¡¯t you!¡± She stood up indignantly, speaking in a tone that suggested he was nothing more than a scumbag. The surrounding people started to watch them with curious eyes. Those farther away did not know what happened, while those nearby were already whispering among themselves. ¡°Wasn¡¯t it said that Jiang Yanyan from Class Three was pursuing Zhu Zhao? How did it turn out into Luo Xi accusing him of being her sister¡¯s boyfriend?¡± CH 71 ¡°Who knows? I usually see Zhu Zhao and Luo Yuyi on good terms. Perhaps it¡¯s really true that they¡¯re already dating?¡± ¡°How is it possible? I heard that Luo Yuyi is dating the school grass.¡± ¡°Tsk, tsk, this relationship is really messy.¡± The surrounding people were discussing, but Jiang Yanyan¡¯s expression had completely shattered. Luo Yuyi¡¯s expression turned disorganized. Just a moment ago, Zhu Zhao reached for her hand under the table, and she didn¡¯t refuse. She didn¡¯t expect Luo Xi to notice it. Her eyes became flushed. ¡°It¡¯s not like that! We accidentally touched each other because we were close. Sister, don¡¯t spread rumors!¡± ¡°You think I¡¯m a fool, little sister? Do you think I can¡¯t distinguish between accidentally touching and holding hands? If you¡¯re dating, just admit it. Is there a need to deny it vehemently?¡± Luo Xi spoke with a feigned smile. Jiang Yanyan¡¯s chopsticks fell on the table with a clatter, and she looked at the two with an unbelieving look. Then she abruptly stood up and ran out. ¡°Yanyan, let me explain!¡± Zhu Zhao¡¯s expression changed, and he quickly chased after her. Everyone looked at this dog-blooded scene, sighing as they did. At this moment, Luo Xi stared at the direction where the two left and asked with a puzzled look, ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± When the surrounding people saw her like this, they thought that she was unaware of Jiang Yanyan¡¯s feelings for Zhu Zhao, so they shook their heads and replied, ¡°Didn¡¯t your sister tell you? Jiang Yanyan has feelings for Zhu Zhao. I heard that she even confessed to him recently, but we don¡¯t know if he rejected her or not.¡± ¡°What? Then why did he hold my sister¡¯s hand? He¡¯s such a scumbag!¡± When Luo Xi heard this, she stomped her foot angrily. The surrounding people looked at Luo Yuyi with meaningful expressions, only feeling that Luo Xi was too naive. Couldn¡¯t she see what was really going on? Clearly, Luo Yuyi and Zhu Zhao had something going on behind everyone¡¯s back. She knew he was that guy her good friend likes, yet she still said such a thing in broad daylight. Now she had been caught red-handed by her own sister for good. Initially, Luo Yuyi gave everyone the impression of being a very gentle and well-behaved girl, but after this incident, her impression on everyone became a peculiar one. Luo Yuyi was stunned on the spot. Ning Mengmeng glanced around, obviously unaware of Luo Yuyi¡¯s involvement with Zhu Zhao. A hint of contempt flashed in her eyes. After Luo Xi finished venting her anger, her eyes landed on Luo Yuyi, who was sitting there with a gloomy expression. A sneer crossed her eyes, but she consoled her with righteous indignation: ¡°Yiyi, we don¡¯t need this kind of man!¡± The surrounding people laughed at her words. Luo Yuyi couldn¡¯t wait to dig a hole and bury herself in it. Why did it turn out like this? She stared at Luo Xi as intense resentment showed in her eyes. Damn this Luo Xi bitch. She wished Luo Xi would just die! The good reputation she had carefully built was destroyed because of a few words from Luo Xi! What would Jiang Yanyan think of her in the future, and how could her classmates see her? Luo Yuyi¡¯s body shook with intense hatred. Meanwhile, Luo Xi walked away happily, unaware that this scene was being observed by a few people on the second floor. Zhou Yu couldn¡¯t help but express his disgust: ¡°I never experienced the seemingly innocent and lively junior Yiyi to be such a person. I thought she liked Brother Leng. Also, is Luo Xi an idiot? She didn¡¯t even know how to keep quiet after discovering it. Now she¡¯s made an enemy of her own sister, thinking she did something good. It¡¯s truly laughable.¡± CH 72 Don¡¯t look at Jiang Yanyan¡¯s seemingly weak and easy-to-bully look in front of Zhu Zhao. In fact, anyone who liked Zhu Zhao at school has been warned and disciplined by her. This monopolization of peach blossoms1 caused Zhu Zhao to detest her. If the misunderstanding this time couldn¡¯t be resolved, Luo Yuyi feared that it wouldn¡¯t do her any good. Yang Feng lifted an eyebrow and spoke, ¡°Don¡¯t you think that Luo Xi was so different from before? If I had known that she was so beautiful, I would have pursued her too.¡± Zhuo Yu sneered, ¡°Give it up. She has her heart set on Brother Leng. How could she be interested in you?¡± Although he said this, there was a hint of bitterness in his heart. This woman is getting married but still attracting bees and butterflies. She really has no shame. ¡°So what? Brother Leng is not interested in her anyway.¡± Yang Feng said with a nonchalant face. Leng Yuan stared in the direction Luo Xi had left, squinted his eyes, and didn¡¯t say anything. Luo Xi was not clear about what happened afterward. She only heard rumors from others that Jiang Yanyan seemed to have argued with Zhu Zhao on the playground, and then Jiang Yanyan left. She didn¡¯t attend the afternoon class either. Luo Yuyi¡¯s expression remained resentful and tense. Luo Xi, on the other hand, had someone sitting next to her just after the class began. With dyed yellow hair, hands in his pockets, holding a skateboard, wearing branded clothes, and exuding a cool-boy vibe, everyone around him looked at him with hearts in their eyes. The teenager is called Mu Han, and his identity is unknown, but Luo Xi knew that the other party was definitely not a normal person. Because no matter which piece of clothing he wore, each one cost more than seven figures. Luo Xi is not clear about how much he disliked her, but she knows that this person disliked her a lot. In her freshman year, due to her poor grades, they were assigned to sit together as deskmates. She disliked these flashy-looking boys, and Mu Han disliked her, who seemed like a silly girl, so the two of them detested each other and often argued over little things. In her previous life, not long after she got married, he transferred to another school. Before he left, he warned her to be careful of Luo Yuyi. At that time, she found it baffling and didn¡¯t take it to heart. But now Luo Xi knows what he meant. Mu Han must have noticed that during the time she was absent from school, Luo Yuyi spread rumors about her everywhere, and that¡¯s why he warned her to be careful of Luo Yuyi. But at that time, she still saw Luo Yuyi as her own younger sister, so how could she possibly believe the words of an outsider? Not to mention that this person was still the one she disliked to the core. When his eyes landed on her, My Yan surprisingly also froze for a moment, then snorted disdainfully, throwing his skateboard aside and sitting down casually. If it had been before, Luo Xi would have already mocked him for the way he took his seat, but what surprised Mu Han was that she just glanced at him and then turned her head to read the book seriously. Wait? Reading a book? This girl who was at the bottom of the class actually reads books? Shouldn¡¯t she be lying on the table reading romance novels and learning how to pursue the person she likes at a time like this? He squinted his pair of beautiful eyes, and after seeing that she was indeed holding an English book in her hand, a flash of surprise appeared in his eyes for a split second. Despite the fact that she didn¡¯t take to heart the warning words he said to her in her previous life, Luo Xi¡¯s opinion of this body had changed for a bit, so she didn¡¯t bother with him about anything. In the afternoon, there was only one music class and then self-study. Luo Xi read books for a while and couldn¡¯t help taking out her phone to play games. Mu Han, on the other hand, had long fallen asleep on the table, and the teacher didn¡¯t care and didn¡¯t bother to disturb him either. CH 73 Her gaze fell on the skateboard he placed under his feet, and a hint of interest flashed across her eyes. In her previous life, after getting married, she lacked enthusiasm for everything that she was doing, leading to her accomplishing nothing in the end. But in this life, she wouldn¡¯t be like that. She wants to try everything she likes once. Withdrawing her gaze, she opened her phone and noticed that she had downloaded thousands of romance novels but hadn¡¯t read any yet. It goes without saying that there was no way for her to continue wasting time reading novels. The thing she should do is follow Leng Minhang¡¯s advice, study hard, and improve every day. Thinking of that man, she couldn¡¯t help but recall his legs. In her previous life, he had fully recovered after a month, but at that time she was indifferent about Leng Minhang¡¯s life and death condition. But things were different now. Such a man has no choice but to sit in a wheelchair now, unable to move freely. He must be very uncomfortable. Although she has no idea about the events that caused Leng Minhang to become like this, she heard about his near paralysis and almost becoming a vegetable. Now, his upper body had recovered, but the same couldn¡¯t be said for his lower body. What can she do to help him recover more quickly? With this thought in mind, Luo Xi quietly opened Baidu on her phone. In the afternoon, Xiao Hei came to pick her up. Luo Yuyi was probably busy dealing with Jiang Yanyan¡¯s affair, so she didn¡¯t have time to spare for her. Luo Xiao was quite relaxed about it. She intended to let Luo Yuyi know what it felt like to lose everything, to be detested and rejected by everyone, and to be trampled under her foot. In her previous life, she played the role of a pure and innocent girl perfectly. In this life, Luo Xi planned to use the same approach and make Luo Yuyi experience the feeling of life being worse than death. When passing by a bookstore, Luo Xi¡¯s sharp eyes landed on it and she called for a stop. Then she asked Xiao Hei to wait for her as she entered the bookstore. After buying several books, she came back to the car. Back at Leng¡¯s house, as expected, Leng Minhang was nowhere to be seen. Luo Xi was just about to go upstairs with the books in her arms when she saw the butler walking over. Her footsteps stopped, her moved her eyes around, and she pretended to ask unintentionally, ¡°Uncle Butler, where did your young master sleep every time he came back?¡± The butler smiled similar to the Maitreya Buddha and answered her question in a good mood, ¡°Young Madam, the Young Master always rests in the room next to yours every time he returns.¡± Regarding this, the butler still found it hard to believe that Leng Minhang was acting like this. He actually willingly gave up his room for the young madam and slept in the guest room. If the people from the old mansion got news about it, wouldn¡¯t they be very shaken? However, the butler naturally wouldn¡¯t mention anything about the young master¡¯s affairs to the people in the old mansion. Even though he was considered part of the old mansion¡¯s people, he knew very well what he could and couldn¡¯t say. Luo Xi didn¡¯t notice the thoughts that were swirling inside his head. After knowing that Leng Minhang slept in the room next to hers, she felt as if chicken blood had been injected into her, and she opened her mouth to say excitedly. ¡°Okay, I got it.¡± After letting out those words, she ran upstairs and locked herself in her room. The butler has no idea what she is doing inside. The butler smiled and shook his head with a helpless expression. The young madam had quite an adorable personality, no wonder even the cold and ruthless young master treated her gently. It wasn¡¯t only until later when dinner time arrived that Luo Xi came out of her room. No one knew what she was doing inside, but her face was flushed, and her expression seemed to carry a hint of eagerness. When he saw that Leng Minhang hadn¡¯t come back yet and that she was the only person on the dining table, her smile became faint. After hesitating for a moment, she stood at the stairs and pulled out her phone to give Leng Minhang a call. CH 74 At the Night Charm Headquarters. At this moment, in the meeting room, everyone was sitting and having a meeting. Night Charm was a very mysterious organization, code-named ¡°Fox.¡± The people here engaged in some shady activities but nothing too heinous. Their influence extended throughout China, and they had territories everywhere. However, no one knew who was behind the scenes. Everyone only knows that there are three leaders here. The first leader with the codename ¡°Silver Fox,¡± the second leader with the codename ¡°Black Hawk,¡± and the third leader with the codename ¡°Jackal¡±. Their identities were unknown, and they always wore masks when meeting people, so no one has ever seen their true faces. The jackal operated in the open, while the black hawk operated in the dark. As for the first leader code-named Fox, people had never seen him and only heard his name. Many even believed that it was just a rumor and that this person didn¡¯t actually exist in reality. At this moment, in the meeting room, the man sitting in the main seat was casually listening to the information from his cellphone when all of a sudden, a pleasant cellphone ringtone echoed. The high-ranking members sitting in their respective seats exchanged glances, each expressing that it wasn¡¯t their phone. Back to the man sitting in the main seat, his eyebrows were knitted at this moment, and his hand moved to pull out his phone. Everyone was quite surprised after seeing this. They didn¡¯t expect it to be his phone. Who didn¡¯t know that their boss disliked being disturbed the most during meetings? Nobody knew who it was, but that person had definitely hit the bullseye. They wiped their cold sweat away for the person on the other side of the call. Much to their surprise, the dark expression on the man¡¯s face disappeared in an instant when he saw the caller¡¯s name. Everyone bowed their heads and dared not look at his expression, but they could also clearly feel that the temperature around him had risen by several degrees. The two men sitting beside him, one indifferent and the other with a carefree attitude, were the only ones who dared to look at him at this moment. On the other side of the call, Luo Xi heard the sound of the phone connecting after a couple of rings. Her heart thumped wildly with joy, and she quickly threw a question: ¡°This, are you coming back today?¡± ¡°Something¡¯s wrong?¡± Leng Minhang¡¯s voice was cold and indifferent. For Luo Xiao, it was indeed the case, but little did she know that the others sitting there felt like they had never heard their boss¡¯s voice sound so pleasant before. Normally, his voice was enough to freeze someone to death. But now it suddenly turned into a gentle breeze in March, which made them feel somewhat uncomfortable. They all speculated about who could be on the other side of the phone to elicit such a gentle response from the boss, and they were even starting to wonder if they still had their jaws. Luo Xi¡¯s mouth lifted and she replied in a complaining voice, ¡°The butler asked me to call you to come back for dinner.¡± The butler downstairs: ? ? Leng Minhang¡¯s lips curled slightly, but he then heard her continue speak with a tone that didn¡¯t take any refusal, ¡°Come back quickly, or I¡¯ll eat everything, and I won¡¯t leave any food for you!¡± ¡°I¡¯ll be right back.¡± After saying this sentence, he stood up in the next second. His face was restored to its former coldness, but strangely enough, everyone felt that he seemed to be in good mood at this time. ¡°Meeting adjourned.¡± These words drifted with the wind, and when everyone lifted their heads again, the man on the main was nowhere to be seen. The others exchanged glances with astonished looks on their faces. Inwardly, they let out a sigh. Who on earth is powerful enough to make their boss leave with just a single phone call? ¡°Tsk, interesting.¡± Ouyang Xuan, the man who has a carefree attitude, stood up with a mischievous smile playing on his lips. The man sitting opposite him squinted his shard eyes and turned to look at him. ¡°Second Brother, I¡¯ll leave the rest to you. Big Bother is starting a family and not in the mood for work, and as for me, I¡¯m not getting any younger. I should find a partner, so I won¡¯t participate in this mission.¡± CH 75 ¡°Third Young Master, Second Master should be older than you.¡± The little assistant at the side reminded him in a low voice. Then the man raised his attractive peach blossom eyes and joked, ¡°My second brother is the type of person who can endure for a lifetime. Love affairs aren¡¯t suitable for him.¡± The little assistant listened and broke out in a cold sweat. Isn¡¯t this just like forgetting the pain after the wound heals? Don¡¯t you remember the last time the Second Young Master beat you up and you ended up lying in the hospital for a month? Forget it, he should save his own life. As for the Third Young Master, he should pray for heaven to save his own little life as well. Meanwhile, at Luo Xi¡¯s side, a joyful expression appeared on her face. She hopped downstairs and casually went into the kitchen to wash an apple before sitting at the dining table, then she started to nibble on it. When the people around her saw that she hadn¡¯t started eating yet, they became slightly confused. An old maid asked with hesitation, ¡°Young Madam, is today¡¯s meal not to your liking?¡± Everyone was a bit apprehensive about this girl who had just entered the Leng family. They were afraid that they might offend her or make her unhappy, which would lead to them being dismissed. After all, not everyone has the chance to come and work in such a large villa. ¡°Huh?¡± Luo Xi was taken aback for a few seconds, but then saw the anxious look on everyone¡¯s faces and suddenly understood what was going on. She smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯ll wait for your young master to come back to eat together.¡± Upon hearing her words, everyone exchanged astonished glances. At this time, would the young master really come back? As soon as they thought of this, the sound of cars entering from the outside entered their ears. Luo Xi quickly sprang from her seat and rushed outside. She stood at the doorway and waited eagerly for his arrival. The car soon came to a halt, and Leng Minhang noticed her gaze moving towards him from a distance. ¡°Why did you come out?¡± The weather today was a bit cold, and the blowing wind outside caused her elegant long hair to become messy. His eyes landed on the long white T-shirt on her body, then on her exposed two slender legs. Leng Minhang furrowed his brows. ¡°I¡¯m waiting for you to have dinner!¡± Luo Xi hid the apple she was holding behind her back. Leng Minhang squinted his eyes. ¡°Hiding something?¡± Luo Xi¡¯s movements just now were done in a subconscious manner. In her previous life, she had suffered from cold palace1, so Leng Minhang never let her eat anything cold. If she tried to eat anything cold, he would get angry. It was an instinctive reaction that made her realize that things were different now; she was no longer in her previous life. ¡°It¡¯s just an apple.¡± She weakly revealed the half-eaten apple in her hand. The people around them twitched the corners of their mouths. Seeing her behaving as if she had done something wrong, Leng Minhang was puzzled. He had only asked a question, so how come she is showing a frightened expression like that? As if she had done something she shouldn¡¯t have? ¡°Before eating, don¡¯t eat these random things.¡± He reminded her, and then went straight into the house. Luo Xi rolled her eyes and quickly went after him. The two sat at the dining table. Both of them were people of few words, so it was very quiet. ¡°I¡¯m full.¡± Today, she didn¡¯t wait for him to finish eating like she used to do and instead put down her chopsticks and looked straight at him. Leng Minhang¡¯s movements stopped for a beat. ¡°Then I¡¯ll go upstairs.¡± Seeing that he didn¡¯t show any reaction, Luo Xi stood up. He always feels that she is acting strangely today, but he couldn¡¯t put his finger on why. Leng Minhang knitted his brows. After she left, he coldly said, ¡°Ask Xiao Hei to come to the study room.¡± The butler responded and left. Luo Xi returned to her room and spent some time reading a book and playing with her phone for a while. Noticing that it was getting late, she went to the bathroom to wash up. CH 76 The weather in Yun City had extreme temperature differences. It was scorching hot during the day but bitterly cold at night. When she saw that it was already late, she secretly slipped out of her room and arrived at the room next door. After scanning her eyes around with a guilty face, she then turned the doorknob to open it. Just as she expected, the door is unlocked. This man never locks the door when he sleeps. Luo Xi¡¯s heart jumped wildly. Pushing open the door, she found that the inside was pitch dark and she couldn¡¯t see anything. She opened her phone, closed the door behind her, and carefully walked over to the direction of the bed on tiptoes. Placing the incense in her hand on the bedside, this incense could quickly put a person into a deep sleep, making them oblivious even if there was thunder. She uses it often every time she has insomnia. Her eyes landed on the unconscious man on the bed. When she saw his perfectly chiseled profile, she involuntarily gulped and held her breath. Her gaze shifted from his face to under the blanket. Today, she specially research online about methods to accelerate Leng Minhang¡¯s recovery. For him to recover faster, she needed to do a specialized massage therapist on him every day to speed up the blood circulation on his legs and allow the leg muscles to recover faster. However, Luo Xi couldn¡¯t tell him this directly because she knew that the other party would definitely reject the idea without any hesitation and even doubt if she had any bad intentions by doing this. Luo Xi wanted to do something for him but didn¡¯t want him to know about it, so she decided to come secretly late at night when he was finally asleep. She was also very scared of waking him up, but she wished to help recovery faster, so she chose this bad plan. Although she had a general idea in mind, Luo Xi was still slightly nervous. After getting on the bed, she discreetly pulled back the blanket. She really has the feeling that she is a thief. She chuckled self-deprecatingly. She looked at her husband¡¯s strong and muscular legs covered with dark leg hair, and Luo Xi felt a bit puzzled. He seemed fine, so how come he couldn¡¯t stand up? Could it be because of the injury to his waist? Frowning, she remembered that during his recovery period in her previous life, he rarely appeared in her sight. At that time, was Leng Minhang afraid that she would look down on him seeing that he couldn¡¯t stand up, so he felt inferior and dared not show himself to her? After all, he appeared more often later on. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she guessed it right. She understood this man¡¯s nature of wanting face1 and being self-sacrificing as a result to some extent. When she saw the man¡¯s dark-haired legs and strong muscles, Luo Xi¡¯s face turned flushed. She used to find leg hair on men disgusting, but when it came to Leng Minhang, she couldn¡¯t help but feel that it exuded a wild charm. Is this so-called ¡°love is blind¡±? Just the thought of it embarrassed Luo Xi. She quickly shook her head, trying to get rid of the chaotic thoughts in her mind. She focused on the professional techniques she had read about in the books and started massaging his lower leg with care. It¡¯s just that¡­ She can¡¯t press it. Feeling the hardness of his leg, it felt like touching a stone. She widened her eyes. How come it was different from what she had imagined? Where was she supposed to press acupuncture points now! At this moment, the person under her hand suddenly moved, startling her. She hurriedly retracted her hand and accidentally pulled something in the process. Spreading her hands, she looked at the two leg hairs in her hand. Luo Xi fell into contemplation. She glanced at the motionless Leng Minhang and felt like crying. On the first day, it was already so difficult. How could she continue in the future? It seemed she had to do more research. After all, this man¡¯s muscles were too hard, and she couldn¡¯t apply any pressure at all. CH 77 With that thought, she quickly got up from the bed and took the incense with her before stealthily leaving the door. Back in her own room, after disposing the two leg hairs, Luo Xi suddenly felt powerless. She lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep. What she didn¡¯t know was that the moment she stepped foot outside Leng Minhang¡¯s room, the supposedly unconscious man on the bed opened his eyes. The expression on Leng Minhang¡¯s face was probably the most complicated one he had ever shown in his life. Meanwhile, Anan, who had been stealthily keeping an eye on Luo Xi¡¯s every move, furrowed his brows. He couldn¡¯t understand what this little wife was up to. His initial thought was that she sneaked into the master¡¯s room to climb onto the bed and play the role of ¡®cooking the rice raw¡¯1.After all, having a child in this noble circle would secure a woman¡¯s status. But unexpectedly, after entering stealthily half an hour ago, she left and ran away with a flushed and discontented face. What¡¯s going on? Could it be that Master is too quick? It only took half a house to finish the ¡®deed¡¯. According to common sense, a virile man like his master could have done it at least eight times in a night! How could it be so quick? Perhaps his master looks decent but is not useful? Anan felt like he had discovered something extraordinary. He quickly took out his phone and quietly shared his findings with his brothers. The next morning. When Luo Xi came down from upstairs, Leng Minhang was already seated at the dining table, waiting for her. Hmm, expressionless as usual, it seemed that he hadn¡¯t noticed anything. Luo Xi quietly heaved a sigh of relief and then smiled sweetly as she walked down, ¡°Good morning, husband!¡± Although she had called him ¡°husband¡± many times already, Leng Minhang still seemed somewhat unaccustomed to it. A hint of awkwardness flashed across his face before he replied with a cold hmm. He still couldn¡¯t figure out why this little girl came to his room last night. He initially thought she had a purpose and wanted to do something to him, so he pretended to be asleep. After all, there were rumors that this girl didn¡¯t like him. How could a vigilant person like him not be suspicious when she suddenly started being nice? However, her subsequent actions left Leng Minhang a bit confused. She stretched out her hands and pressed his lower leg several times. Perhaps she is doubting whether he was acting as a crippled man? Then who sent her to investigate all this? In reality, Leng Minhang¡¯s body had already recovered to some extent. Sitting in a wheelchair was just to confuse those people outside, making them believe he hadn¡¯t recovered. There are too many spies secretly hiding in this villa, but only Luo Xi can really get close to him. So, who is behind her? The more he thought about it, the heavier his heart felt. Undeniably, Leng Minhang has deep feelings for this little woman, and he doesn¡¯t want her to become someone else¡¯s pawn who is used by others! His deep eyes surged with emotion. Luo Xi finished eating and waited obediently for him. It seemed like she still wanted him to take her to school. But Leng Minhang, who was pondering deeply, didn¡¯t notice the expectation in her eyes. When he saw her staring at him after finishing her meal, he furrowed his brows and asked, ¡°Is there something?¡± Luo Xi blinked. ¡°Nothing, have you finished eating?¡± She glanced at the time and realized it was getting late. She hesitated and asked. Leng Minhang, who hadn¡¯t finished eating, put down the utensils in his hands. ¡°Let¡¯s get going, I¡¯m going to be late for class.¡± When she saw his actions, Luo Xi opened her mouth to speak. Leng Minhang frowned, and then he replied, ¡°I won¡¯t send you off today.¡± CH 78 Looking at the smile that instantly disappeared from her face, he inexplicably explained again. ¡°I have to go somewhere else later.¡± When she heard his words, Luo Xi nodded in understanding. Although she felt a bit disappointed that he couldn¡¯t go with her, she knew that she couldn¡¯t afford to delay Leng Minhang¡¯s work either, so she said, ¡°Then I¡¯ll leave first.¡± Leng Minhang nodded. As he watched move her legs to leave and glancing back with every few steps, he inexplicably felt that he held a very important position in her heart. When the delicate silhouette disappeared from the sight, his expression returned to its former coldness in a split second. He spoke to Anan, who was behind him, ¡°Find someone to check on who Young Madam has been in contact with after she fell into the river. I want detailed information!¡± Anan was slightly surprised. After all, such an incident only happened last night, and his master was already doubting the young madam. He truly had no mercy! Leng Minhang squinted his eyes and saw his subordinate lost in thought. He furrowed his brows and asked, ¡°What are you thinking?¡± Ah Nan snapped back to reality with a jolt and hurriedly shook his head, ¡°Nothing, I¡¯ll ask someone to investigate right away.¡± ¡­ The moment she stopped inside the classroom, Luo Xi was greeted with the sight of Luo Yuyi chatting and laughing with Jiang Yanyan. She lifted an eyebrow but didn¡¯t say anything. Then she walked straight to her own seat. She doesn¡¯t want to interact with Luo Yuyi, but that doesn¡¯t mean that the other party will also have the same thought as her. Luo Yuyi came in her direction and invited her gently, ¡°Sister, there¡¯s a basketball game in the basketball club on Saturday. Senior invited us to be the cheerleaders, but we don¡¯t have enough people. You¡¯re also a member of the basketball club, would you like to join us?¡± ¡°Not interested.¡± She wouldn¡¯t cheer for that scum, not even in their dreams. ¡°Why not? The school grass is also participating in this competition. Don¡¯t you like him? You never had a chance to interact with him before, but this is a rare opportunity!¡± Her voice became louder with the last sentence. As soon as they heard that the school grass would also participate in this competition, the girls in the class quickly erupted into discussion, but when they heard Luo Yuyi¡¯s last sentence, they cast their displeased glares at Luo Xi. Who didn¡¯t know that Luo Xi had used all her means to chase the school grass before? At that time, she dressed up in such a way that even the boys in the class looked down on her, let alone the school grass. But things were different now. They couldn¡¯t help but worry when looking at Luo Xi¡¯s current appearance. ¡°What a joke! Aren¡¯t you already married? You still have the nerve to chase after the school grass. You really have no shame!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, it¡¯s disgusting. I hope the school¡¯s grass won¡¯t be deceived by her vixen face.¡± ¡°Yes, we must let the school grass know that she¡¯s not a good woman. The school grass belongs to everyone!¡± The girls around them criticized and scolded Luo Xi. Luo Xi raised her mouth sarcastically. Although the insulting and malicious words of the girls around her kept going to her ears, she had developed some resistance after her experiences in her previous life. She stared at Luo Yuyi with a half-smile and spoke, ¡°Yiyi, your thinking is wrong. You¡¯re clearly aware that I¡¯m already married, yet you still want me to pursue the school grass. Your three views are a bit scary. Even I wouldn¡¯t dare think like that, sister. I didn¡¯t expect you to be so bold. Besides, I heard people say that you get along very well with the school grass, and no other girls can simply compare. I definitely have no chance, but you still have. You can do it, sister believes in you!¡± Hearing this, everyone immediately turned their surprised and doubtful gazes towards Luo Yuyi. ¡°Is it true? The class monitor also likes the school grass?¡± CH 79 ¡°If you hadn¡¯t said it to me, I would have forgotten this. I saw the class monitor walking with the school grass the other day, but I just disregarded it at that time. After all, both of them are members of the student union, so it¡¯s nothing unusual to see them close and spend so much time together. Who knows, they might have been together for a while now. Otherwise, Luo Xi wouldn¡¯t have given up so easily!¡± ¡°That¡¯s not true, I really can¡¯t tell at all.¡± ¡°But I heard yesterday that Zhu Zhao and the class monitor are having an affair behind everyone¡¯s back ah? They were caught holding hands in the cafeteria. Haven¡¯t you heard about it?¡± ¡°The class monitor had already explained that it was a misunderstanding long ago. Because they were sitting together and it was crowded, they accidentally touched each other. I don¡¯t think the class monitor is that kind of person.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t think it¡¯s that simple. The rumors are pretty widespread. And I¡¯ve noticed that Zhu Zhao treats the class monitor exceptionally well. He often buys her bubble tea and snacks.¡± ¡°I thought it was because he¡¯s dating Jiang Yanyan, so he bought an extra portion for her.¡± ¡°You can¡¯t just judge people by their looks. The class monitor wouldn¡¯t really get involved with someone else¡¯s relationship, would she?¡± When she heard the skeptical voices of the classmates around her, Luo Yuyi¡¯s face briefly showed annoyance. Then, she changed her expression as if on cue and explained in a pitiful voice, ¡°Sister, why do you always misunderstand me with others? It was because of what you said that Yanyan and the senior had a misunderstanding and fought yesterday. They¡¯re already together, but since I¡¯m so close to Yanyan, the senior thought of me. He always gives me extra whenever he brings something. As for the school grass, we only talked about business matters. I know you¡¯re angry hearing about me walking with the school grass, but I¡¯m really innocent. What kind of nature I have, aren¡¯t you the most clear? Upon hearing this, everyone felt it made sense. After all, it was true that Jiang Yanyan had confessed to Zhu Zhao before, it¡¯s just that they didn¡¯t know if they actually got together. But now that Luo Yuyi has said so, they must be a couple. As for the school grass¡¯s situation, since nothing actually happened, it was indeed hard to say. It seemed like all of this was Luo Xi¡¯s own problem. They looked at Luo Xi with contempt. After all, in their hearts, Luo Yuyi¡¯s words carried more weight. Luo Xi¡¯s reputation had always been bad, so naturally she lacked credibility. ¡°I think she¡¯s definitely jealous that the class monitor could join the student union and talk with the school grass. And her jealousy led her to deliberately frame the class monitor.¡± ¡°I think so too. Last time, didn¡¯t she also start scolding the class monitor in school? The class monitor cried from being scolded. Later, she fell on the river herself and said that it was the class monitor who pushed her down. Seriously, she¡¯s so evil.¡± ¡°The class monitor has such a sister; what bad luck!¡± ¡°Absolutely!¡± Everyone looked at Luo Xi with disdain and contempt in their eyes. Luo Xi touched her chin, seemingly unaffected by the voices around her, and the expression on her face remained the same. Instead, her eyes shifted to the window, the corner of her mouth hooked up faintly, and then she questioned, ¡°In that case, you really have no interest in the school grass at all?¡± ¡°What¡­ what?¡± Luo Yuyi was momentarily stunned, not understanding why she suddenly reversed the conversation by saying such words. However, under the gaze of everyone, she definitely had to explain clearly. Filled with righteous indignation, she said at this moment, ¡°Of course, just like everyone else, I only have admiration for the school grass, and there¡¯s no other meaning at all. I don¡¯t have any feelings for him!¡± ¡°What are you guys talking about?¡± Just as she finished speaking, Ning Mengmeng walked in looking puzzled. Yang Feng was standing by the classroom door. Obviously, the two of them had reconciled. Luo Yuyi turned back and was about to greet her with a smile when her eyes landed on Yang Feng, who was standing at the door of the classroom and sneering at her. The smile on her face instantly stiffened. CH 80 Luo Xi smiled as she looked at Luo Yuyi, then got up and applauded. ¡°Worthy of being my sister, daring to say that! Admirable! In this school, I¡¯m afraid my sister is the only one who isn¡¯t interested in someone as good as the school grass. Everyone should learn from my sister.¡± The others looked at her with black lines on their heads. She claimed not to be interested in the school grass, but she smiled happier than anyone else once she heard her younger sister say that she didn¡¯t like school grass. If Luo Xi knew what they were thinking, she would probably burst into laughter. Yang Feng also hadn¡¯t expected to witness such a good show so early in the morning. If yesterday¡¯s events were just a misunderstanding, he could understand. After all, he hadn¡¯t seen anything. But witnessing this scene today was truly ironic. In his eyes, Luo Yuyi was no different from other girls, except that she was good at pretending. She was overly attentive to Brother Leng most of the time, and now she was in a hurry to distance herself from him. Tsk tsk, she is really a hypocritical woman. Compared to the scheming Luo Yuyi, he suddenly felt that Luo Xi, this seemingly foolish girl, was more pleasing to the eye. Which guy would want his girl to be scheming? Luo Yuyi often presented herself as innocent and pure, like a white lotus flower. If he hadn¡¯t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn¡¯t have realized it. Luo Yuyi¡¯s entire body fell into an embarrassed state. She hadn¡¯t expected Yang Feng to come here at this moment. Looking at the expression on the other party¡¯s face, she knew that he must have heard her words just now. Panic flashed in her eyes. Yang Feng and the school grass were good friends. If he told the school grass about this, what would he think? Previously, she intentionally and unintentionally showed her liking for Leng Yuan. He didn¡¯t reject her, but he also didn¡¯t give a reply. However, Luo Yuyi was aware that she had a special place in Leng Yuan¡¯s heart. She inhaled deeply. No matter what, she could explain later, though it might be a bit troublesome. This damn Luo Xi, always causing trouble for her! She even suspected that the other party was doing it deliberately! Her eyes landed on Ning Mengmeng, who was standing nearby, and a glint appeared in her eyes. She said, ¡°Mengmeng, you¡¯re here. I was just inviting my sister to join us as cheerleaders for the basketball club.¡± ¡°What? Why are you inviting her? Does she know how to dance?¡± Hearing this, Ning Mengmeng¡¯s displeasure was evident as she looked at Luo Xi with a hint of disdain. ¡°She knows. My mom said my sister was very fond of dancing when she was little.¡± Luo Yuyi replied with some hesitation. ¡°When she was a little? When was that¡ªkindergarten?¡± Ning Mengmeng laughed upon hearing this. Others chuckled softly. Luo Xi, whose initial plan was to decline, changed her mind upon hearing this. Dancing? She hadn¡¯t encountered anyone better at dancing than herself from childhood until now! ¡°If she slows us down, it¡¯s fine. But if she loses face for the basketball club, we won¡¯t be able to bear that responsibility.¡± Ning Mengmeng flicked her flashy nails and looked at Luo Xi with a gloating expression. ¡°Mengmeng, don¡¯t say that, my sister won¡¯t do it.¡± Luo Yuyi quickly stood up to speak for Luo Xi. ¡°Tsk, whatever you say. Just remember, if anything goes wrong, don¡¯t blame me for not warning you.¡± Ning Mengmeng shrugged. Luo Yuyi shot an apologetic look at Luo Xi. Her expression seemed to genuinely reflect her sisterly affection. If it had been in her previous life and someone had defended her like this, Luo Xi would have been deeply moved. CH 81 But now, all she wanted to do was sneer. ¡°Sister, Mengmeng didn¡¯t mean to say it that way. She¡¯s just straightforward. Don¡¯t be angry.¡± She explained. ¡°Alright, seeing that my sister is speaking up for me earnestly, even if I don¡¯t know how to dance, I¡¯ll definitely give you a face and attend. Is that alright?¡± Upon hearing this, everyone had black lines on their heads once again. At a time like this, shouldn¡¯t she be saying that, to avoid causing trouble for her sister, she will not attend? Luo Xi¡¯s mind was really strange. She seemed unafraid of losing her face in front of her sister. The smile on the corner of Luo Yuyi¡¯s mouth stiffened. She initially assumed that since Ning Mengmeng had said those gloating words, Luo Xi wouldn¡¯t have the face to attend. But unexpectedly, she agreed. For a moment, Luo Yuyi found it hard to understand what Luo Xi was thinking. When she entered the Luo family, she was already in high school. At that time, she wasn¡¯t attending the same school as Luo Xi. She had only heard her mother say that Luo Xi had been a prodigy in dance since childhood, winning championships in every competition and excelling in various forms of dance. However, she had never witnessed Luo Xi practice and didn¡¯t know if she was as skilled as her mother had claimed. But it didn¡¯t matter. No matter how skilled Luo Xi was, not having danced for many years, she¡¯s afraid that Luo Xi probably forgot most of it now. Since she came to the Luo family, she has been learning various skills in order to surpass Luo Xi and become the most favored daughter in the family. Not to mention being proficient in everything, she excelled in all aspects compared to Luo Xi. These would be her assets, which would help her completely crush Luo Xi. As soon as she thought of this, Luo Yuyi¡¯s mood improved a bit. She opened her mouth to remind, ¡°Then this afternoon, let¡¯s go together to choose the dance. Time is running short and we need to move quickly and practice.¡± The corner of Luo Xi¡¯s lips curled slightly. ¡°No need, just call me when you¡¯ve chosen.¡± She lazily yawned and sat back in her seat. At this time in her previous life, Luo Yuyi had also invited her to join. However, due to Ning Mengmeng¡¯s gloating remarks, she was too embarrassed to join and declined the invitation on the spot. At that time, due to time constraints, Luo Yuyi and the others had chosen a rather ordinary dance, so they were easily crushed by the cheerleading team from the opposing school. Luckily, the basketball team¡¯s victory reclaimed some dignity. Otherwise, they would have lost face. That dance was something Luo Xiao had learned in junior high school, but she was now entirely uninterested in it. She still vividly remembered the scene of Luo Yuyi crying on the field after being ridiculed by the leading girl of the cheerleading team from the opposing school. Later, someone posted this video on the internet, and Luo Yuyi¡¯s fans got to know about it. The leading girl received severe blacklash, and eventually she had to apologize to Lup Yuyi on Weibo. Only then did the matter subside. People always sympathized with the weaker side, regardless of the truth. Luo Xi also wanted to know what the two parties talked about on the field at that time. She remembered that even though the leading girl apologized, she only did it out of helplessness, and she had always harbored resentment toward Lup Yuyi. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. As she was lost in thought, her foot was suddenly bumped, causing her to let out a slight ¡°ouch.¡± Looking down, she saw a cool ice-blue skateboard bump into her foot and come to a stop. Raising her head, the teenager had his chin tilted and was looking down at her from a higher vantage point with a look of ¡®I just did it on purpose¡¯. Tsk, if this were in her previous life, Luo Xi would have already teared him. Back then, her temper was quite fiery. But things were now different. Time had smoothed down her temper, and she had also learned to vent in a different way. CH 82 The corner of her mouth curled up coldly. She then reached out her hand to pick up the skateboard, which was undoubtedly valuable at first glance, and tossed it towards the trash can amidst the crowd¡¯s astonished gazes. That was Mu Han¡¯s favorite skateboard! The people around her drew a breath of cold air, not understanding what had gotten into her head. ¡°Luo! Xi!¡± Mu Han¡¯s previously complacent expression suddenly turned grim, and then he walked over and spoke in a cold tone. The surrounding people looked at her with glee, waiting to see a good show. Who didn¡¯t know that Mu Han is very fond of skateboarding and cherishes his skateboard like a treasure? He took it with him every day. This Luo Xi was really seeking death to do this! Mu Han¡¯s temper in class is infamously bad, and no one has the courage to go against him! Even if the other party is a girl, he won¡¯t be polite. ¡°I¡¯m not deaf, so why are you yelling so loudly?¡± Luo Xi pulled out her ears and said impatiently. ¡°You have the guts to throw away my stuff!¡± Mu Han inhaled deeply and shot a ferocious look at her as if he wanted to devour her. ¡°Your stuff? What stuff of yours?¡± Luo Xi pretended to look at him blankly. ¡°You¡¯re playing dumb!¡± Mu Han¡¯s temple twitched wildly twice. How come he didn¡¯t realize that this woman was so daring before? ¡°I really don¡¯t know. Ah, you just lost something a moment ago, but it¡¯s the thing that bumped into me. Since it dared to bump into me, it should pay the price. Isn¡¯t that what you taught me?¡± Luo Xi sneered. Previously, when her book bumped into him by accident, he threw it directly into the trash can. He then warned her not to touch him again. ¡°You!¡± ¡°Me what? Is what I said wrong? Do you want to take a look at the surveillance footage?¡± Luo Xi was too lazy to care about him. This teenager acted as if she owed him, and he would feel uncomfortable if he didn¡¯t provoke her for a day. Now, he even personally came to her to get a scolding. Since this is the case, what¡¯s the use of being polite? Mu Han opened his mouth, and for a moment, he was actually dumbfounded by her scolding words! He indignantly glanced at the skateboard that was tossed in the trash can, feeling somewhat unreconciled about parting with it. However, he also felt that it was shameful for someone like him to go to the trash can to pick up things. In the end, he could only sit back with a dark expression, fuming silently. Everyone did not expect Luo Xi to be so courageous. Their surprise only deepened when they saw Mu Han, who had always been bad-tempered, let her go easily. There is something wrong with the development of this plot! At this moment, a female student suddenly ran over and picked up the skateboard. She then shyly walked to Mu Han¡¯s side and attentively said, ¡°Classmate Mu Han, don¡¯t be angry. I picked it back up for you.¡± She then looked at Luo Xi disapprovingly and rebuked in a cold voice, ¡°Luo Xi, do you still have any discipline? How can you just casually throw other people¡¯s things? You¡¯re still not apologizing to classmate Mu Han!¡± She spoke filled with righteous indignation. Luo Xi recognized her and was quite familiar with her. She was the same girl who had made a bet in the restroom that day, saying that her husband would soon die. Her name is Lin Lifei. She is the class¡¯s sports committee member, who has won several awards in sports games and is quite well-known. It seemed that she had been secretly in love with Mu Han, as people said. It was a pity that in her previous life, Mu Han died not long after, and this person¡¯s secret love ended in no time. Luo Xi lifted an eyebrow and looked at the other party, crossing her arms on her chest as she did. ¡°Apologize? What qualifications do you have to make me apologize?¡± ¡°You!¡± Lin Lifei glared at her and said angrily, ¡°You unreasonably threw student Mu Han¡¯s things into the trash can. Shouldn¡¯t you apologize? You¡¯ve gone too far!¡± ¡°I¡¯ve gone too far. But what can you do about it?¡± Luo Xi looked at her with irony in her eyes. ¡°Besides, this is a matter between the two of us and it¡¯s none of your business. What does it have to do with you, a mere outsider?¡± CH 83 ¡°Student Mu Han, look at her attitude!¡± Lin Lifei¡¯s face turned red with anger as she quickly complained to Mu Han. Mu Han looked at her with a dark expression, ¡°She¡¯s right. What¡¯s it to you?¡± ¡°What, what?¡± Lin Lifei couldn¡¯t help but took two steps back and looked at him in disbelief, momentarily thinking that she misheard what he said. Clearly she was helping him, so how come he is blaming her instead? ¡°Get lost!¡± Mu Han impatiently said. Lin Lifei was stunned, and the surrounding people looked at this scene with blank expressions. Just now, when they saw his attitude towards Luo Xi, they thought that his personality had improved for the better, but now that he was talking to Lin Lifei, he reverted to his former self. Seeing Lin Lifei running away in tears, the people around felt slightly awkward. Luo Xi watched this scene with an expressionless face, recalling that she hadn¡¯t settled the score with Lin Lifei for calling her husband a dead person last time. This time, she came knocking on her door, so don¡¯t expect her to be polite. It¡¯s just that she didn¡¯t expect Mu Han¡¯s attitude to be so bad. With a click of her tongue, she realized he was a man who lacked compassion and could potentially be abusive. Anyone who married him would likely be in trouble. Comparing him to her own husband, she suddenly felt her husband was incredibly gentle with girls. At this moment, inside a dimly lit room reeking with strong smell of blood, a man in a wheelchair suddenly sneezed. Facing him, a man dressed in ragged clothes was bound with all his limbs tied. His body was covered with scars, with red blood still flowing from his broken skin. Anan, who was holding a blood-stained long whip in his hand and was about to strike, was taken aback when his master sneezed in such a scene. He looked back at his master sitting in a wheelchair in confusion. ¡°Continue.¡± the man coldly uttered. ¨C When he saw her glaring at him with contempt, Mu Han¡¯s expression was almost dripping with ink. ¡°What are you looking at? Look at me again, and I¡¯ll gouge your eyes out.¡± ¡°Pah!¡± Luo Xi rolled her eyes and took her eyes back. Even though she used to argue with this young man in her previous life, she was actually slightly afraid of him and didn¡¯t dare to pushed too far. She will bear it as long as she could. But she didn¡¯t know why, ever since she remembered the words he said to her before leaving in her previous life, she felt that this young man was definitely not a bad person. In the end, the skateboard was still thrown away by him with a look of disgust. During physical education class, Luo Xi had an eerie feeling of that someone was watching her, but when she turned to look, there was nothing there. The PE teacher was a man with muscular body. He ordered everyone to run ten laps around the field. When they heard what he said, the expressions of the students changed. But they didn¡¯t dare to disobey and started running. Luo Xi¡¯s stamina is also not very good. While she used to enjoy sports as a child, she gradually lost interest and became a salted fish, reading novels and eating snacks all day long inside the house. Her physical fitness deteriorated slowly over time. This was the last class in the morning, and the sun was blazingly hot. After just two laps, everyone was out of breath and couldn¡¯t go on anymore. Taking advantage of the teacher¡¯s inattention, Luo Xi stopped to walk for a bit. She walked and paused, appearing quite leisurely. Seeing this, the people around couldn¡¯t help but twitch the corner of their mouths, lamenting that Luo Xi seems to be getting more and more bold. Yet at this time, she felt a cold gaze on her. Having experienced the the unfortunate events in her previous life, Luo Xi was highly sensitive to danger. She turned her head almost immediately, and as expected, Lin Lifei who had a cold expression on her face, was charging straight towards her. CH 84 As the champion of the sprinting competition, Lin Lifei¡¯s speed was extraordinary. The moment Luo Xi turned around, Lin Lifei had already reached out her hand toward her. Luo Xi¡¯s expression slightly changed. This collision might send her flying. A glint flashed across her eyes, and the moment the other party came into contact with her, she stretched out her hand and grabbed onto Lin Lifei¡¯s sports uniform. Lin Lifei, who was expecting to send Luo Xi flying, was startled when Luo Xi suddenly turned around. Now being pulled by her, she stumbled and fell directly to the ground. ¡°Ah!¡± A miserable cry sounded. When everyone turned to look at the source of the sound, they saw Lin Lifei sprawled on the ground like the Chinese character ´ó. ¡°What¡¯s wrong, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Everyone stopped and ran over. The physical education teacher also heard the commotion and hurried over. ¡°Lin Lifei, what happened to you?¡± The students quickly reached out their hands to support her up, and their faces were full of confusion as they asked. Lin Lifei fell quite hard, with her hands and feet scraped. When her classmates helped her up, her face twisted in pain. One can imagine how miserable they would have been if it were them who fell. Luo Xi looked at the scene coldly. The PE teacher asked sternly, ¡°Student Lin, what happened to you?¡± Lin Lifei finally came back to her senses at this point. She looked angrily at Luo Xi and then pointed her finger at her before complaining, ¡°Teacher, Luo Xi pushed me!¡± ¡°What?!¡± The PE teacher furrowed his eyes and looked at Luo Xi. Everyone¡¯s gaze also shifted to Luo Xi. ¡°Student Luo Xi, why did you push Lin Lifen?¡± the PE teacher scolded. Before Luo Xi could have the time to say anything, Luo Yuyi, who was standing by the side, quickly stepped forward and explained: ¡°Teacher, don¡¯t blame my sister. It may be because she had a quarrel with Lin Lifei earlier and acted impulsively. She didn¡¯t mean it. Please don¡¯t be angry!¡± It¡¯s fine if she didn¡¯t say this, but when the PE teacher heard her words, his expression on his face quickly turned dark in the next second. At first, it seemed like she was defending Luo Xi, but upon closer examination, it indirectly informed everyone that Luo Xi pushed Lin Lifei because of their previous argument. It implied that she was holding a grudge, so that¡¯s why she did it. Lin Lifei is an outstanding athlete, and the physical education teacher has always had high expectations for her. Seeing her fall like this and knowing it was deliberately caused by someone, he was naturally furious. ¡°Student Luo Xi, you¡¯ve gone too far! Quickly apologize to Lin Lifei!¡± The PE teacher¡¯s face was stern and his words carried a threatening tone. He didn¡¯t expect someone who appeared to be well-behaved and polite to have such a vicious nature inside! Upon hearing this, Lin Lifei¡¯s face showed a trace of satisfaction. In an instant, the pain in her body seemed to have vanished. She didn¡¯t want this matter to end with just an apology. ¡°Teacher, I can¡¯t just forget it like this. I have to attend a competition in a few days. Now that my leg is injured, if I can¡¯t recover in time, it will definitely affect my performance. If I lose, it will all be her fault. She can¡¯t just let her go like this!¡± The PE teacher¡¯s eyebrows furrowed. He also felt that this matter was serious. After all, Lin Lifei¡¯s leg had been injured, and it would certainly affect her performance. Their class had always been ranked first. If they lost their top position this time due to this accident, it would be a major blow. As soon as he thought of this, he asked: ¡°So, what do you want teacher to do?¡± ¡°Punish her by making her clean the restroom for a week!¡± Lin Lifei said without hesitation. It must be known that in this kind of noble university, even the classrooms had designated cleaning staff to clean them, not to mention the restrooms. CH 85 After all, these children from prestigious families had never done such menial tasks before, let alone cleaning the restroom. What a disgrace! Some students would receive punishment for their mistakes, like cleaning duties, but the teachers wouldn¡¯t be too harsh. After all, the children in this school could not be offended. However, the PE teacher was different. He is very young and has also graduated from this school. He is not even thirty yet, and his father is the principal. No one has the courage to offend him unless they want trouble at the school. Everyone knew his identity, so no one dared to skip his classes. Now, he was going to punish Luo Xi by making her clean the restroom. Luo Xi probably wouldn¡¯t have the courage to refuse! The school bell being punished for cleaning the restroom was a big piece of melon1, enough to keep people eating for several days! Everyone looked at Luo Xi with a sense of schadenfreude. ¡°Lifei, don¡¯t do this. If Xixi really did it intentionally, let me apologize on her behalf.¡± Luo Yuyi quickly stepped forward to defend Luo Xi. ¡°Class monitor, why apologize? The person involved didn¡¯t even care about what happened. She¡¯s taking advantage of your kindness. Don¡¯t bother with her, it¡¯s not worth it!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. What Luo Xi did this time was really over the line. How could she push someone to the ground? Look at what she did to Lifei. Forcing her to clean the restroom is already letting her off easy!¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Luo Yuyi looked at everyone with a struggling expression. Then she quickly grabbed the indifferent Luo Xi beside her and said, ¡°Sister, what are you waiting for? Apologize to Lifei. This time you were really wrong, and I can¡¯t help you. Apologize to Lifei and ask for her forgiveness. Maybe you won¡¯t be punished.¡± She said anxiously. ¡°That¡¯s right, beg for my forgiveness. Maybe I¡¯ll let it go for the sake of the class monitor!¡± Lin Lifei said arrogantly. Although she didn¡¯t like Luo Xi, she didn¡¯t want to offend Luo Yuyi because of this either. After all, they were sisters. But she definitely wouldn¡¯t let Luo Xi get away easily. ¡°Apologize? You¡¯re quite amusing.¡± Unexpectedly, at this moment, Luo Xi suddenly sneered. Everyone exchanged glances with each other with confusion written on their faces: ¡°What does she mean?¡± Lin Lifei¡¯s face turned gloomy in the second. ¡°Luo Xi, you¡¯re going too far. I¡¯m trying to let this slide for the sake of being classmates, and all I want is your sincere apology. Don¡¯t toast and refuse to drink fine wine2!¡± She then looked at the PE teacher with an expression full of grievances. ¡°Teacher, just look at Luo Xi¡¯s attitude!¡± The PE teacher didn¡¯t expect Luo Xi to be so willful, and he also turned solemn. ¡°Student Luo Xi, I¡¯ll give you one more chance. Apologize to Lin Lifen sincerely, or it won¡¯t be as simple as cleaning the restroom!¡± ¡°Sister, please apologize quickly. What¡¯s wrong with you? Do you want to bring our parents in? If they got news that you¡¯re causing trouble like this at school, they will definitely die of anger!¡± Luo Yuyi tried to persuade her. ¡°And you think you have any dignity left? You pushed someone and still have this attitude. If I were in your place, I wouldn¡¯t let you off easily either.¡± ¡°Exactly! Teacher, just for this attitude towards her, she should definitely be punished for cleaning the restroom for at least one month. One week is too cheap for her!¡± ¡°We agree! Punish her!¡± The people around them chimed in one after another. ¡°Luo Xi, do you hear that? I¡¯m being lenient with you!¡± Seeing the people around them siding with her, Lin Lifei said smugly. ¡°I¡¯ll say just this once, I didn¡¯t push her. Whether you believe it or not is not of my concern. Apologize? I haven¡¯t even asked you to apologize, yet you dare to speak up. Who gave you the courage?¡± Luo Xi crossed her arms and spoke without any warmth. CH 86 ¡°What do you mean!¡± Lin Lifei¡¯s expression changed slightly. ¡°What do I mean? You know better than I do!¡± Luo Xi¡¯s gaze silently swept over the puzzled faces of the people around her. Then she withdrew her gaze and looked at the PE teacher before saying calmly, ¡°And by the way, teacher, I don¡¯t accept your punishment either!¡± Upon hearing this, the people around them erupted! ¡°What does she mean? Not apologizing is one thing, but refusing the teacher¡¯s punishment too?¡± ¡°Exactly, it¡¯s too shameless. Who does she think she is, daring to challenge the PE teacher? Does she not want to stay in this school anymore?¡± ¡°Reason?¡± The PE teacher is not a fool. Hearing her words and seeing the instant change in Lin Lifei¡¯s face, he realized that things might not be as simple as they appeared, so he furrowed his brows and questioned. ¡°Reason? I¡¯ve already explained it clearly, and I didn¡¯t push her. As for how she fell on the ground, that¡¯s something you should ask the person involved. She came running behind me. Do you think I could have turned around and pushed her?¡± She sneered. Everyone exchanged confused glances. If Lin Lifei was behind Luo Xi, even if she was pushed, she shouldn¡¯t have fallen forward. ¡°That¡¯s right. I seem to remember that Lin Lifei was the fastest runner, even overtaking everyone from behind. Luo Xi didn¡¯t even complete one lap.¡± So, what exactly happened? The PE teacher¡¯s brows furrowed slightly when he heard this, and he looked at Lin Lifei. ¡°What do you have to say?¡± Lin Lifei¡¯s eyes briefly flickered with panic, but she quickly regained her composure and explained, ¡°Teacher, she¡¯s trying to argue her way out of it. It¡¯s true that I ran a few laps and got behind everyone, but later on, I overtook her. I didn¡¯t expect that she would suddenly push me from behind. Otherwise, why would I have fallen? Don¡¯t let her deceive you!¡± ¡°Is that so? Are you sure you were running ahead of me?¡± Luo Xi looked at her with a smile that didn¡¯t look like a smile. ¡°I, I¡¯m definitely sure. There was no one behind me except you at that time. If it wasn¡¯t you who pushed me, then who else could it be? Do you expect me trip myself and frame you?¡± Lin Lifei retorted angrily. ¡°Who knows, maybe that¡¯s exactly what happened?¡± Luo Xi blinked her eyes, not showing any disbelief. The people around them couldn¡¯t help but twitch their mouths. Do people nowadays have self-destructive tendencies? But upon closer inspection, something did seem off. Could Luo Xi really be that daring? ¡°You!¡± Lin Lifei glared at her in anger. ¡°Teacher, I saw it.¡± A female voice suddenly sounded at this moment. Everyone turned their heads in unison, and when they saw that it was her, they were all surprised. The PE teacher also looked over and asked with doubt. ¡°Student Jiang, what did you see?¡± Jiang Yanyan stood up with a complicated expression and said, ¡°I witnessed what happened between them. I happened to be standing behind them, so I saw it.¡± ¡°Sister, Yanyan has seen it, so don¡¯t try to argue anymore. Just apologize quickly. Your actions are really making things difficult for me!¡± When she heard her words, Luo Yuyi¡¯s eyes lit up, and she hurriedly tried to persuade Luo Xi. Luo Xi cast a cold glance at her, then turned to look at Jiang Yanyan. She narrowed her eyes slightly. Could it be that she really misjudged someone? Jiang Yanyan furrowed her brows and spoke, ¡°What I meant is, it wasn¡¯t Luo Xi who pushed her.¡± Luo Yuyi stiffened suddenly, and then she looked back at Jiang Yanyan with disbelief in her eyes. ¡°What?¡± The PE teacher¡¯s expression quickly changed upon hearing this. ¡°What the hell is going on!¡± CH 87 Jiang Yanyan lightly said, ¡°At that time, what I saw was clearly Lin Lifei charging straight towards Luo Xi. I intended to warn her, but Luo Xi reacted quickly and moved out of the way. That¡¯s why Lin Lifei ended up falling on the ground on her own. It wasn¡¯t Luo Xi who pushed her at all, and I don¡¯t understand why she would say that.¡± As soon as the words came out, the surroundings fell silent instantly. Lin Lifei¡¯s face turned pale in an instant. The PE teacher¡¯s expression turned dark, feeling like he was being toyed with by his own students. He said coldly, ¡°Lin Lifei, is what she said true? You fell on your own, and yet you tried to frame others!¡± ¡°I, I¡­ it¡¯s not¡­¡± Surrounded by whispers and accusing glares, Lin Lifei¡¯s mind buzzed, feeling like she would be in trouble if she couldn¡¯t explain herself. She didn¡¯t expect to be seen by someone, let alone that it would be Jiang Yanyan. If it had been anyone else, she might have been able to argue her way out of it, but Jiang Yanyan? She was defenseless against her. Because she couldn¡¯t afford to offend her! What to do, what to do! Lin Lifei panicked even more. Seeing her reaction, the PE teacher had a rough idea of the situation. He was extremely irritated by how his own student was deceiving him. Lin Lifei, a student whom he has always held in high regard, has thoroughly disappointed him now. Luo Xi was surprised that Jiang Yanyan stood up to speak on her behalf. It seems like her bet has paid off! This girl is not as foolish as she initially thought. While she might not fully believe her, once the seed was planted in her heart, it would eventually take root and grow one day. Luo Xi actually thought that Jiang Yanyan would step forward to help Lin Lifei clarify the situation. If she really did that, Luo Xi would no longer care about her. She has never feared Lin Lifei in the slightest. If she wants to play, then she is willing to play along until the end! ¡°Teacher, did you hear that? The matter of her falling had nothing to do with me. Now she¡¯s even trying to frame me and attempting to get you to punish me. Well, if it weren¡¯t for classmate Jiang seeing it, I¡¯m afraid that I would really be punished today. Now that the truth is out and it¡¯s proven that I¡¯m innocent, shouldn¡¯t the one to be punished be changed?¡± Luo Xi stroked her chin and threw a meaningful glance at Lin Lifei, who had a bad expression on her face. ¡°You!¡± Lin Lifei¡¯s face turned red upon hearing this. If she admits it, not only would she be punished, but she would also face public criticism. Even the PE teacher would look down on her. How could she hold her head high in class in the future? She balled up her fists tightly and quickly explained to the PE teacher, ¡°Teacher, let me explain. I was running too fast at the time and didn¡¯t notice her in front of me. Suddenly, I fell back, and when I turned around, I saw only Luo Xi behind me. That¡¯s why I thought she pushed me. At that time, it all happened so fast that I don¡¯t remember it very clearly, but I absolutely didn¡¯t mean to lie to you.¡± When he heard this, the PE teacher¡¯s expression improved slightly. He also didn¡¯t believe that Lin Lifei had intentionally run over to push Luo Xi. But it doesn¡¯t make sense that she fell to the ground on her own if Luo Xi didn¡¯t push her, right? Seeing this, Lin Lifei quickly added, ¡°I know I was wrong. I shouldn¡¯t have said that she pushed me. My mind went blank at that moment. I¡¯m truly sorry!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t cry. Since it was a misunderstanding, let¡¯s make it clear now. The teacher never said that he must punish you!¡± The PE teacher¡¯s heart softened a little when he saw her crying so miserably. ¡°Misunderstanding?¡± Luo Xi tilted her head and looked innocently at Lin Lifei. ¡°Are you really sure it¡¯s really just a misunderstanding? I was almost punished by cleaning the restroom just now. When you were so determined to punish me, did you ever think it could be a misunderstanding?¡± CH 88 ¡°I already said it wasn¡¯t intentional. What more do you want?¡± Lin Lifei retorted in frustration and embarrassment. ¡°What more do I want? Listening to your tone, it sounds like it¡¯s justifiable that I was misunderstood, framed, and scolded by everyone.¡± Luo Xi¡¯s tone became cold. ¡°Since you dared to frame someone, you have to pay the price! Do you think that a simple sentence of ¡®it wasn¡¯t intentional¡¯ is enough?¡± ¡°You!¡± Lin Lifei¡¯s face turned red, and her body shook with anger. ¡°Luo Xi, you two are classmates, so you have to forgive others. Besides, Lin Lifei is hurt badly. I know it was unfair for the teacher to blame you before investigating, but now that Lin Lifei has admitted her mistake, you should forgive her.¡± The PE teacher felt that she was being too domineering and couldn¡¯t help but interject. ¡°Heh, when I was misunderstood earlier, why didn¡¯t the teacher say that Lin Lifei should forgive me?¡± Luo Xi sneered. If she let Lin Lifei off the hook this time, she would only become bolder next time! The PE teacher¡¯s complexion changed slightly, feeling a bit awkward. ¡°Then what do you want?¡± ¡°Of course, it¡¯s to use their own methods against them!¡± Luo Xi smiled lightly. ¡°What!¡± Everyone gasped upon hearing this. ¡°Is she suggesting that Lin Lifei should apologize while also cleaning the toilets?¡± ¡°It seems like it. Is she really going this far?¡± The goodwill in everyone¡¯s eyes for Luo Xi diminished slightly. The PE teacher looked at her in embarrassment. ¡°What? You think one week is too short? How about one month then?¡± She cunningly suggested. The PE teacher burst into a fit of coughing. This girl was indeed sharp-witted. Admittedly, they had been too harsh earlier. A group of people had been accusing this girl, and her frustration was understandable. ¡°Sister, don¡¯t be like this. We are all classmates!¡± Luo Yuyi stepped forward and tried to persuade her. ¡°Shut up!¡± Luo Xi¡¯s voice turned icy. Everyone was startled by her tone. To tell the truth, she usually appears gentle and fragile, but now when she loses her temper, she really looks a bit scary. Luo Yuyi had never been yelled at by her before, let alone in front of so many people. She felt extremely aggrieved, but she reacted quickly. Her eyes turned red in an instant, and she opened her mouth to speak pitifully: ¡°Sister, I am only doing it for your own good. That¡¯s all.¡± ¡°For my own good?¡± Luo Xi smiled coldly. ¡°As my own sister, when everyone was falsely accusing me, you stood up to support them and asked me to apologize. You didn¡¯t believe in me at all! Now that you see I was wrongly accused, you¡¯re not blaming her, but you¡¯re persuading me not to be like this? Luo Yuyi, are you my sister or Lin Lifei¡¯s sister? Have you ever seen a sister like you? I¡¯m truly disappointed in you!¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Luo Yuyi was rendered speechless by her words. Hearing this, the people around them suddenly felt that what Luo Xi said made a lot of sense. If it were their own family, no matter what, they would definitely stand by their family member¡¯s side. How could it be like Luo Yuyi, who immediately accused Luo Xi from the very beginning and indirectly admitted that her own sister was the one who had done it? Isn¡¯t this indirectly harming Luo Xi? ¡°Alright, I¡¯ve said what I needed to say. Teacher, you can figure it out yourself. Don¡¯t let your students down!¡± Luo Xi didn¡¯t feel like saying anything more and spike for the last time. Given the situation, if the teacher didn¡¯t punish Lin Lifei, it would be seen as biased! The PE teacher twitched the corner of his mouth. She really blocked his way from the front and back, so he had no choice but to only proceed according to her words. CH 89 In the end, Lin Lifei was punished for cleaning the restroom for a week. She cried in anger on the spot. Unfortunately, no one felt pity for her this time. Instead, it was Luo Xi who bought a piece of ice cream from somewhere and leisurely sat down on the grass to cool off. The PE teacher didn¡¯t care about her either. Xiao Hei saw this from the shadows and pulled out his phone to give his master a call. ¡°Master, it seems that Young Madam has been bullied.¡± His eyes furrowed and he recounted what he had seen to Leng Minhang. On the top floor of a certain office building, in a high-end office that occupied the whole floor, the man sitting in front of his desk heard about Luo Xi being targeted by her classmates. His gaze darkened slightly, and he asked, ¡°What is she doing now?¡± Xiao Hei glanced at Luo Xi who was licking her ice cream leisurely, ¡°Young Madam is eating ice cream.¡± Leng Minhang: ¡°¡­¡± Hearing the beeping sound of the call being disconnected, Xiao Hei is a bit puzzled. On the other side, the phone in Luo Xi¡¯s pocket suddenly rang. She was a bit perplexed and took out her phone to see that it was actually Leng Minhang calling. Her lazy expression suddenly changed, and she hurriedly sat up straight before answering the call. ¡°Hello, old¡ª husband?¡± she hesitantly called out. ¡°Hmm? What are you doing?¡± The man on the other side of the phone asked carelessly. ¡°I¡­¡± Luo Xi stared at the unfinished ice cream in her hand and was a bit dazed. ¡°I¡­ I¡¯m in gym class.¡± ¡°What else?¡± The man¡¯s tone on the other side became slower and slower. When it passed through her ears, it inexplicably made Luo Xi shiver. She unconsciously looked around, and after confirming that he was not here, she was slightly relieved. ¡°Sunbathing.¡± Noticing the other party¡¯s silence, Luo Xi rolled her eyes. ¡°I was bullied just now!¡± Saying that, she stood up filled with righteous indignation and complained, ¡°There was a terrible girl who ran into me and ended up falling on her own. Then she told the teacher I pushed her and let the teacher punish me by cleaning up the restroom. Do you think she is excessive or not!¡± She huffed. Originally, Luo Xi didn¡¯t really care about this incident, but now that she was talking to Leng Minhang, she felt extremely wronged. ¡°And then?¡± the man asked with the same calm tone. I¡¯m your little baby ah. I was bullied, and you have this attitude? Luo Xi was aggrieved in her heart and muttered, ¡°Then a classmate saw it and came forward to clarify for me, so I was not punished by the teacher. But even if there is no classmate to help me, I won¡¯t let her bully me. When the time comes to check the surveillance footage, let¡¯s see what she can do!¡± Luo Xi coldly snorted. The corner of Leng Minhang¡¯s lips curled slightly. Just listening to the sound, he could imagine the appearance of Luo Xi¡¯s nose going up to the sky. ¡°Well, it¡¯s good that you¡¯re fine. Eat less ice cream.¡± He faintly said. Luo Xi was a little upset. She was bullied, so how come he didn¡¯t show anything? It really irritated her! Wait a minute, eat less ice cream? Her eyes landed on the ice cream that was about to melt in her hand. After ending the call, Leng Minhang¡¯s gaze darkened like the bottom of the pot, and he dialed another number. ¡°Retrieve the surveillance footage of the field from when the incident happened today and post it on their school¡¯s online forum.¡± Xiao Hei was taken aback for a few seconds but quickly reacted. At that time, he didn¡¯t pay attention to who exactly pushed Luo Xi. He hesitated and asked, ¡°What if it was really the young madam who pushed her?¡± Leng Minhang: ¡°Then destroy it!¡± Xiao Hei: ¡°¡­¡± After the call ended, Xu Guan walked in. ¡°President, the people you asked Anan to check about having contact with the young madam after she fell into the water have been found out.¡± Xu Guan¡¯s expression was somewhat serious as he said this. CH 90 ¡°Hmm?¡± Leng Minhang furrowed his brows and looked at him. ¡°We previously overlooked a very important piece of information about the young madam and your brother.¡± ¡°Speak.¡± Leng Minhang squinted his eyes. ¡°Before the Young Madam and got married with you, it is said that she was frantically pursuing your younger brother, but it never came to fruition. Then after she fell into the water, she also attended a gathering with your younger brother and some classmates. Although we don¡¯t know if your younger brother is aware of her connection to you, I suspect that the Young Madam might be manipulated by him.¡± Xu Guan expressed his concerns. Despite not having seen the young man several times, Xu Guan was able to notice the ambition in the other party¡¯s eyes. He wasn¡¯t a docile person. And now that he has something to do with Young Madam, and the president suddenly asks them to check the people who had contact with Young Madam before she fell into the water, it really causes people to be doubtful. And Luo Xi seemed to be deeply devoted to him. It¡¯s truly unexpected that coincidences led to this. The president is clearly attached to the Young Madam, but now he learns that he might have been cuckolded1 by his own younger brother. How could he feel comfortable about this? Leng Minhang¡¯s gaze grew heavy. Xu Guan wanted to offer some comfort, but before the words could come out, Leng Minhang lifted his hand to cut him off. ¡°Continue the investigation. The young madam is back at the school now. Assign a few people to secretly protect her.¡± He said with deep and contemplative eyes. It was said to be a protection, but in reality, it was a form of surveillance. Xu Guan nodded and left the room. Once he was gone, a touch of ruthlessness appeared between Leng Minhang¡¯s eyebrows. So the things she did sneakily last night were all for his younger brother? If he was not mistaken at that time, then she seemed to have pulled his Leng Minhang stretched out his hand and rubbed his temple. ¡­ By the time she got back home in the afternoon, Leng Minhang was still nowhere to be seen. Luo Xi returned to her room and began to earnestly study massage techniques. When it was time for dinner, Leng Minhang was still nowhere to be seen. She thought of giving him a call. But then she recalled that she had already called him once yesterday. If she called him again today and asked him to come back, would he find her annoying? It is said that men don¡¯t like girls who take the initiative to come to the door. In her previous life, Luo Yuyi was like a dog licking its master with her desperate act of currying Leng Minhang¡¯s favor. However, not only did she fail to gain favor from him, but she even caused him to be disgusted with her! As for her, every time she said something bad to him, he still treated her patiently. From what she could see, had she been taking the wrong approach in pursuing him in this life? What¡¯s the difference between her overly eager behavior and Luo Yuyi¡¯s action in his previous life? Would he grow tired of her? In her previous life, she never tried to call him. He always returned on his own. Now she has to call him. The more she thought of this, the more panicked she became. Luo Xi¡¯s face slowly turned pale. The butler passing by noticed her troubled expression and furrowed his brows. He asked with concern, ¡°Young Madam, is there something wrong? Are you feeling unwell?¡± Startled by the sound, Luo Xi came back to her senses. She quickly shook her head and replied, ¡°I¡¯m alright.¡± Going downstairs, she was still the only one at the wide dining table. Thinking of this almost caused her to completely lose her appetite. Perhaps due to her bad mood, she ate very little and then went upstairs. Others had also clearly noticed her change. They looked at the nearly untouched dishes with frown on their faces. When Leng Minhang finally returned, it was quite late. His body carried a faint stain of blood. Following closely behind him were Anan and two bodyguards dressed in black. It was unclear what had transpired. CH 91 Several people entered the study room one after another. Two black-clad bodyguards suddenly knelt down on one knee. With a horse voice, they said, ¡°Thank you, Master, for saving our lives!¡± ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± Leng Minhang questioned with a stern face. ¡°It¡¯s Feng Lingye¡¯s people. We¡¯ve been extremely cautious with this batch of goods, but we didn¡¯t expect them to target us! It led to the deaths of two of our brothers!¡± Thinking of the two brothers who lost their lives miserably, their eyes turned red. Feng Lingye? Leng Minhang narrowed his eyes upon hearing this name. The Feng family and the Leng family had a longstanding feud, but they had been coexisting peacefully in recent years. However, they dared to make a move on his territory now? It looks like this young master of the Feng family wants to start a war! A trace of hostility appeared between his eyebrows and he coldly said, ¡°Be more careful during this time. I¡¯ll have my second brother handle this matter. He dared to start a war, so it¡¯s time for him to pay the price!¡± The two black-clad bodyguards made a sound of acknowledgement and retreated. Anan stepped forward and said, ¡°Master, Feng Lingye suddenly returned to the country during this period and the momentum is strong. I¡¯m afraid this matter is not that simple.¡± Leng Minhang nodded. Feng Lingye had been his arch-enemy for many years, and he was the only opponent who could evenly match him in terms of strength. This time, he made such a bold move, and it was probably done by him on purpose. He wanted to see what Feng Lingye was up to. In the city of Yun, there are four major families. Specifically, the Leng family, the Feng family, the Zhou family, and the now-fallen Yun family They collectively controlled the entire economy of China. The mysterious Leng family, the low-key Feng family, the arrogant Zhou family, and the almost extinct Yun family These families held almost all of China¡¯s economic lifelines. At present, the Leng family was in a dominant position, and almost everyone in the business world knew it. After Leng Minhang took over the business, it soared to an unprecedented height, holding considerable influence in both legal and illegal spheres. But the Leng family mainly operated overseas, and they had a massive international presence. They even cooperated with various nobles, making them an entity no one dared provoke. As for the Zhou family, a well-established nouveau riche, they specialized in real estate and highly profitable industries. They are quite powerful. As for the last Yun family, they have almost disappeared from sight now. The Yun family and Yun City had a relatively deep relationship, and even the city was named after their surname. Even the Leng family was incomparable to the former Yun family when they were still in their glory years. It was a pity that the Yun family inexplicably fell in just one night. However, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse, so the Yun family is still very prestigious in this capital. Even if they have fallen, no one dares to take their position as one of the four major families. Any slight movement from any of these big families could shake the entire city of Yun. In recent years, although the four major families lived peacefully alongside each other, numerous small and large incidents still occurred. As the time went on, minor issues grew into major ones. A lot of territory disputes and mutual sabotage were revealed. Those people who stood in high positions, although they looked down on others, placed themselves in the most prominent and dangerous places. Every step they took was extremely cautious. Because one wrong move could lead to a complete defeat! Leng Minhang¡¯s slender fingers lightly tapped on the desk. It seemed that some people couldn¡¯t bear to wait any longer after his incident! It¡¯s fine, he didn¡¯t need to worry about his own safety. The enemies were coming to him on their own will, so why not take advantage of it? ¡°Alright, I understand. You can go and rest first.¡± He nodded faintly. The butler knocked on the door of the study when he saw that the man had left. Leng Minhang thought it was Luo Xi. Why was this little woman still awake at this hour? CH 92 He furrowed his brows, adjusted his emotion, and his icy tone softened a lot. He said lightly, ¡°Come in.¡± The butler pushed the door open and entered. Seeing that it wasn¡¯t the person he wanted to see, Leng Minhang was stunned for a while. Then he frowned and asked, ¡°Butler? Is there something you need?¡± The old butler somehow had a feeling that his young master was somewhat disappointed when he looked at him. Despite not understanding the reason, he cleared his throat and said, ¡°Young Master, I just wanted to say a few words. Young Madam¡¯s mood doesn¡¯t seem to be very good today. I don¡¯t know if something has happened. I thought I should inform you.¡± Leng Minhang¡¯s eyebrows furrowed even deeper upon hearing this. She was fine when he called her at noon. It¡¯s only been a long time. What could have happened? ¡°I see.¡± He nodded. After saying this message, the butler left the room. Meanwhile, on the other side, Luo Xi received news of Leng Minhang¡¯s return, but she refrained from disturbing him. After the previous thoughts passed, she reminded herself that she must be reserved. Only when she is reserved will the man feel that she is not interested in him, and he will become interested in her. Although she was sleepy after waiting until midnight, her determination to help Leng Minhang recover as soon as possible remained unchanged. After lighting the incense and checking the time, she felt that he should be asleep by now. She cautiously approached his room. ¡°Creak.¡± The sound of the door being pushed open rang. She tiptoed inside and saw that his back was facing her. It seemed like he was already asleep. Luo Xi felt relieved, placed the incense at the side, and was about to reach out to adjust his blanket. However, just as she was about to do so, a strong hand shot out even faster than her and grabbed her wrist. Luo Xi was so startled that she let out a surprised scream. ¡°Ah!¡± The sound traveled downstairs, and all the servants heard it. The butler frowned, contemplating whether he should go up and check on the situation. Back to Luo Xi, her expression changed drastically when she was caught. ¡°What are you doing?¡± The man squinted his deep and sharp eyes and looked at her. Luo Xi¡¯s heart sped up, and she stumbled over her words, ¡°I was just looking.¡± ¡°Look at what?¡± Leng Minhang asked her in a deep voice. He didn¡¯t expect her to come again after coming yesterday. What is her motive? How courageous she is! ¡°Just, just take a look.¡± Luo Xi avoided looking at him. She couldn¡¯t say that she came to massage his feet, could she? Does he feel that he is a little too perverted, and he doesn¡¯t sleep at night, so he comes to massage his feet? Luo Xi felt somewhat embarrassed. Seeing her like this, Leng Minhang¡¯s expression grew even darker. Luo Xi could clearly feel that the air around her was getting more and more cold! This was a sign of his anger. She felt a bit panicked, but she didn¡¯t want to fail him and make him angry. ¡°I tell you, but promise me you won¡¯t get angry, okay?¡± she said anxiously. Only then did Leng Minhang look at her. He thought that she was trying to manipulate him again, but his eyes clashed against her bright and sincere gaze. Within those captivating eyes, there was no trace of impurity, only pure sincerity made his heart flutter. For a moment, he couldn¡¯t help but believe her. ¡°Speak.¡± Sensing his own change, Leng Minhang¡¯s expression turned ugly again. Luo Xi summed up her explanation and disclosed the matter of giving him a massage. Then she hurriedly explained, ¡°I really didn¡¯t mean to harm you. It is said online that this method can help with quicker recovery, so I came. I just want you to get better faster.¡± Veins popped on Leng Minhang¡¯s forehead in anger. CH 93 So after thinking about things all day today, in the end, she told him that it had nothing to do with what he had in mind at all! The two of them have not been married for long, and according to the previous information, it was clear that she had no feelings for him. How come she is making this trouble now? And massage? Last night she touched and pulled, and she called that a massage? Even if he has never been to a health care facility, Leng Minhang knows what a massage is like. But he didn¡¯t sense any malice from her, which means that either she was hiding it well or she really just wanted to help him as she said. Leng Minhang leaned towards the latter idea. After all, for a twenty-year-old girl who grew up in a greenhouse, how could she be so scheming? Having said that, it probably had nothing to do with his little brother either. He rubbed his aching temple, released her hand and said, ¡°Alright, go back to sleep!¡± Seeing his expression slightly improved, Luo Xi¡¯s eyes flickered. She suggested, ¡°Since you are awake now and you know what I¡¯m up to, how about¡­¡± She blinked her eyes. The butler had just gone upstairs when he heard Luo Xi¡¯s anxious voice coming from behind the slightly closed door. ¡°Give me a chance, please! I promise I won¡¯t let you down!¡± ¡°Yesterday, I just haven¡¯t learned yet. It¡¯s not my fault that you were so hard. It¡¯s also my first time and I¡¯m inexperienced, that¡¯s why I accidentally pulled some of your hair. I really didn¡¯t mean it. I studied hard today, I¡¯ll definitely make you comfortable!¡± The butler¡¯s old face turned red. He just heard something incredible! No wonder the young madam screamed so loudly just now. He was about to leave in a hurry, but in the next second, the door was suddenly pulled open. Luo Xi, who was dressed in cute bear pajamas and had slightly messy hair, was pulled out by the young master with a grim expression. The three of them were stunned upon seeing each other. Luo Xi came back to her senses first and greeted the butler with a smile, ¡°Uncle Butler, you¡¯re still awake?¡± The old butler coughed, then cast a strange look at his young master and said, ¡°I¡¯ll go to bed right away. Young master and young madam, you should also rest earlier. It¡¯s not good for your health to stay up so late.¡± Luo Xi thought he meant staying up late was bad for health, so she nodded and said, ¡°Okay, we¡¯ll go to bed after we¡¯re done.¡± ¡°Uh¡­¡± The old butler nodded with a helpless expression. ¡°Then I¡¯ll leave first.¡± Luo Xi bid him farewell with a wave of her hand, then stared at Leng Minhang with big innocent eyes, still trying to find a chance. ¡°You¡¯re really not up for another round? I promise you will feel comfortable this time.¡± Downstairs, the butler almost stumbled and fell upon hearing this. These kids nowadays are really full of youthful energy! Leng Minhang¡¯s veins popped out. ¡°Do I look like someone who has nothing to do now?¡± Luo Xi was momentarily surprised, then her gaze fell on his legs standing firmly on the ground. She froze and then looked at him in surprise, ¡°It¡¯s already, already healed.¡± Leng Minhang coldly snorted, ¡°Can you obediently go back to sleep now?¡± Luo Xi was only pleasantly surprised for a short time, and then she lowered her head sadly. ¡°Um¡­¡± She thought she could do something for him, but in the end, she realized he didn¡¯t need it at all. Seeing her instantly deflate, a distressing look flashed in Leng Minhang¡¯s eyes. Thinking about how much this girl had done for him, he couldn¡¯t help feeling a bit helpless. CH 94 ¡°Go back.¡± He stretched out his hand and patted her slightly raised little head. Luo Xi thought about having to go to class tomorrow and nodded. Actually, Leng Minhang had already recovered, which is also a good thing. After all, she didn¡¯t want the other party to remain injured. There must have been a reason for him to remain in a wheelchair before. Thinking of this, a solemn expression appeared in Luo Xi¡¯s face. He is willing to let her know that he has already recovered, which is enough to show that he still trusts her! This realization made her eyes light up instantly. She pointed to her clothes and said, ¡°Then, can you let go of me?¡± Leng Minhang¡¯s hand paused for a moment, then he released her. Luo straightened out her slightly wrinkled pajamas and glanced at him. ¡°Then I¡¯m leaving.¡± Leng Minhang stared at her faintly, his eyes clearly conveyed a message of ¡®hurry up¡¯. Seeing that he had no intention of saying goodnight, Luo Xi pursed her lips and took a few steps. To his surprise, she suddenly turned back and rushed toward him before planting a kiss on his cheek. She then said, ¡°Goodnight,¡± and quickly slipped away. Luo Xi was so fast that Leng Minhang didn¡¯t react in time. After she left, he remained frozen on his spot. It seemed that there was still a warm and soft sensation on his face. He was stunned for a while before mechanically turning around and clumsily returning to his room. ¨C The next day was another sunny and beautiful day. The dining table was still as quiet as usual. It was as if nothing had happened the previous night. After finishing breakfast, Luo Xi intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Leng Minhang. Being looked at like this, Leng Minhang couldn¡¯t eat anymore. He put down his utensils from his hands, elegantly wiped the corners of his mouth, and said coldly, ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Luo Xi¡¯s eyes brightened up. At last, he made the first move to speak. Xiao Hei opened the car door, and Luo Xi quickly jumped on it first. Seeing her joyful expression, a hint of softness appeared between Leng Minhang¡¯s eyebrows. The car drove through the lively neighborhood and quickly stopped at the school gate. ¡°Yanyan, did you really see what happened yesterday?¡± Luo Yuyi just got out of the car and met Jiang Yanyan, who was also heading to school. She hadn¡¯t had a chance to ask about it since yesterday. But the more she thought about it when she was at home, the more she felt that something was off. Jiang Yanyan is not someone who likes to meddle in other people¡¯s business, let alone the fact that she used to dislike Luo Xi so much. When she saw Luo Xi in trouble, she should have been overjoyed. So why did she actively help Luo Xi this time? It¡¯s really confusing. Although she and Zhu Zhao had explained things to her and she hadn¡¯t pressed further, there seemed to be a lot more coldness towards her after that incident. It took her a lot of effort to establish a good relationship with her. She couldn¡¯t just let a few words from Luo Xi ruin it. Jiang Yanyan furrowed her brows. ¡°Would I lie about something like that?¡± Luo Yuyi quickly smiled and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t mean it that way. I just find it a bit strange. Why did you suddenly speak up for my sister? I thought you¡¯d always disliked her.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t she your sister? Are you unhappy that I spoke up for her?¡± Jiang Yanyan¡¯s gaze darkened as she spoke calmly. ¡°Of course I¡¯m happy. It¡¯s just that I¡¯m a bit surprised. But thank you for helping her. Otherwise, I really wouldn¡¯t know what to do in that situation.¡± Luo Yuyi helplessly smiled. At this moment, a black Maybach stopped not far away from them. Luo Yuyi¡¯s gaze froze as she swept her eyes over it. That car, how familiar! Sure enough, the car door opened, and Luo Xi, who was dressed in a school uniform, stepped out with a flushed face. CH 95 She initially thought Luo Xi¡¯s life would be miserable after marrying, but unexpectedly, it was the opposite of what she had imagined! Her gaze darkened, her hands involuntarily clenched tightly, and the unconcealed jealousy all fell into the eyes of Jiang Yanyan who was standing nearby. Following Luo Yuyi¡¯s gaze, she saw Luo Xi. Looking at the car again, she paused. That¡¯s the symbol of the Leng family. Is the person Luo Xi married from the Leng family? From what she knew, the Leng family had only one legitimate young master, but this man was extremely mysterious. Even with a background in a prestigious family like her own, she had never been able to make contact with him. But the symbol of the Leng family is a well-known presence in the upper class. She always heard Luo Yuyi say before that the man Luo Xi married was very wealthy. But now it seems that he is more than just wealthy? However, Luo Xi¡¯s status might not match that of the Leng family¡¯s eldest son. After all, the Leng family is an aristocratic clan and had many offspring, including numerous illegitimate ones, but the legitimate line was said to have only one. She wondered who Luo Xi had married. She was about to ask Luo Yuyi who was nearby, but she saw her eyes light up, and she ran over. ¡°Sister! You¡¯re here.¡± Luo Xi was saying goodbye to Leng Minhang when Luo Yuyi¡¯s voice rang out from behind her all of a sudden. She furrowed her brows and turned to look at her. ¡°Ah, brother-in-law sent you here in person!¡± Luo Yuyi stepped forward. Her gaze was fixed on the man she had seen only once but could never forget. She almost said aloud the words ¡°I really like you¡± written on her face. ¡°Brother-in-law, hello. I¡¯m Luo Xi¡¯s younger sister. My name is Luo Yuyi, you can call me Yuyi.¡± Luo Yuyi extended her hand and greeted sweetly. Leng Minhang threw a quick look at her, but he didn¡¯t extend his hand. He simply made a faint ¡°hmm¡± sound, as if he didn¡¯t want to say more to her. Luo Xi¡¯s lips curled slightly. She folded her hands and watched as Luo Yuyi made a fool of herself. Sure enough, seeing that he didn¡¯t respond, Luo Yuyi felt a bit embarrassed and withdrew her hand. ¡°You are not allowed to eat ice cream. If you have anything, give me a call. Come home early this afternoon, understand?¡± Leng Minhang¡¯s gaze shifted from Luo Yuyi to the little woman who seemed ready to enjoy the show. Luo Xi quickly let go of his hand and nodded obediently. ¡°Okay! You should go to work now. Goodbye.¡± Leng Minhang nodded faintly and never gave Luo Yuyi another glance from the beginning to the end. Xiao Hei stepped forward and said, ¡°Miss, please step aside.¡± Luo Yuyi¡¯s face turned red as she stepped aside. The car slowly started and disappeared from their view. Luo Yuyi took her eyes back with a regretful expression. She didn¡¯t expect this man to be so difficult to approach, yet he was so considerate to Luo Xi, even personally driving her to school. The more she thought about it, the more dissatisfied she became. She turned around and saw Luo Xu looking at her with a smile that didn¡¯t quite reach her eyes. Luo Yuyi was startled, and she quickly hid emotions and said with a coquettish smile, ¡°Sister, brother-in-law is really handsome! He¡¯s so good to you, I¡¯m so envious. Right, I¡¯ve already chosen the dance for the cheerleading team. It¡¯s a very simple dance, but time is limited. I¡¯ll go back with you in the afternoon. We can study together by then.¡± Luo Xi¡¯s eyes flashed with a hint of a cold smile. These words had come earlier than in her previous life. After all, at this time in her previous life, she hadn¡¯t even met Leng Minhang. When she heard that she was living in the luxurious villa halfway up the mountain, she pestered her to go and see it. Unexpectedly, she met Leng Minhang there. From then on, she has used various methods to get close to him, staying at her place almost every day during that period.
