Chapter 36
Mu Ziwan:...
“This guy only knows how to say mushy words!”
Gu Wan’er hugged her phone in her arms. Her face was a little red, and her delicate body was wrapped in the blanket as she turned over.
Then, she took out her phone and wanted to return to the topic of persuading Lin Sen to join her at her school. However, she didn’t know how to start. Her face turned redder and redder.
“Ahhh-”
“I don’t want to think about it anymore. I’ll just take him away during the assessment!”
Gu Wan’er gave up on thinking and typed on her phone.
Mu Ziwan: Alright, there’s nothing else. I still have to wake up early tomorrow to cultivate. I’m going to rest.
She waited for two seconds.
Mu Lin Sen (Alias: Lin Sen): Yes, Little Muzi will take his leave. Palace Master, have a good rest!
“Hmph!”
Gu Wan’er continued to hold the phone. She turned over again before closing her eyes in peace.
...
Mu Lin Sen (Alias: Handsome Master): Fu Tong should be able to save you.
In Me The Tiger: Master, how do you know?
“Is Master giving advice to Butler Fu Tong?”
Wang Yanran was dressed in a set of white casual clothes. She glanced at the message and leisurely appeared at the banquet.
This was the birthday banquet of Han Tianzuo, the only son of the Han Corporation, the rival of the Wang Corporation Who occupied the other half of Canaan.
Initially, Wang Yanran did not want to attend.
Dressed in a fragile gown that would tear at the slightest movement, scheming against others in a so-called gathering of fame and gain was not as enjoyable as cultivation and fighting.
However, after the Dark Jade Wyrm incident, her father had forbidden her from going out.
It was not easy for her to get Butler Fu Tong to think of a way to get her the invitation to this banquet, so her father could not continue to imprison her.
This was merely the lesser of two evils.
“Miss Yanran’s outfit can be considered outstanding among everyone else’s gowns.”
At this moment.
A pleasant and refined male voice came from behind. Wang Yanran knew that the annoying fellow had arrived.
“Han Tianzuo, perhaps you should use the word ‘unconventional’ as a description. After all, no one should be used as a foil.”
Wang Yanran turned around and said unhappily to a young man in a dark blue suit with an outstanding aura.
“It’s the honor of all the fireflies to set off the bright moon.”
Han Tianzuo continued to respond with an elegant smile.
This was why Wang Yanran didn’t like him. Not a single word of truth came out of his mouth. They were all kind remarks one couldn’t distinguish to be true or false.
An innocent person might fall into his trap immediately.
However, in this gathering of fame and fortune, there did not seem to be anyone who was simple-minded. They were all the same as Han Tianzuo.
Instead, with her straightforward personality, she was an anomaly.
However, since she didn’t like this, Wang Yanran wouldn’t force herself.
“I still have something on. I came to your birthday party this time just to get some fresh air. Don’t misunderstand.”
She pulled out her phone and waved at Han Tianzuo and walked away as if she had something else to attend to.
But she didn’t notice a blue light flash past Han Tianzuo’s eyes. He was wearing electronic contact lenses, allowing him to see the details on Wang Yanran’s phone.
“Mu Lin Sen...
“It’s Lin Sen!
“D*mn it!”
“As soon as I looked away from you, you immediately hooked up with Wang Yanran. As expected, your family can’t be left alive!”
He recalled that a few years ago, his father had warned him to pay attention to a classmate named Lin Sen and told him a shocking secret. He silently clenched his fists.
Turning around, Han Tianzuo quickly walked out of the banquet.
...
The next morning.
Lin Sen woke up from his sleep in a relaxed manner. A nest made of gold or silver could not compare to his own nest of peace.
After finishing the breakfast prepared by his sister, Lin Sen went out for a stroll around the school.
Even with five million dollars in savings, Liu Xiangxiang had no intention of stopping work.
In her words, she did not want to sit idle and eat away at the fortune.
No matter how much Lin Sen persuaded her, she refused to take a good rest.
Lin Sen was helpless.
...
He could only wait for the assessment to pass and use the excuse of “being afraid of meeting strangers alone” to get his sister to accompany him to the academy and be a “rich and idle sister”.
“Hmm?”
As soon as he stepped out of the door, Lin Sen felt that all the neighbors on the street were looking at him strangely.
A few of them, who had been whispering just now, stopped talking when they saw him step out.
Lin Sen never had a good impression of these neighbors.
Back then, when their parents passed away, this group of people took a fancy to the house they had left for Lin Sen and Liu Xiangxiang.
Then, using lofty reasonings and “good advice from elders”, they tried to force his sister to marry their sons or descendants in order to legitimately take away the inheritance left behind by Lin Sen’s parents.
If it wasn’t because Lin Sen had been so angry that he bought a long saber, looking as if he wanted to fight to the death with them and scaring these people who cherished their lives, they probably would have succeeded.
However, after that, Lin Sen’s family often got sarcastic remarks and oblique accusations from these neighbors.
Initially, his sister had sent some gifts, wanting to ease the relationship between the neighbors.
However, they regarded her as a coward and threatened her even more. They even attempted to seize the Lin siblings’ house once more.
...
In a fit of anger, Liu Xiangxiang stopped with the gifts and they instead resented her even more for not knowing what was good for her.
All in all.
This was a group of neighbors that Lin Sen disliked very much.
Now that they were acting so strangely, they probably had some bad intentions again.
Lin Sen was cautious and immediately gave up the idea of visiting Gu Wan’er at school.
He returned to the house and closed the door.
A cruel smile appeared on Lin Sen’s face.
After gaining strength, I was just worried that I wouldn’t have the chance to find trouble with you. Now you guys have come knocking on my door.
I hope you can show your ugly faces soon so that I can take the opportunity to beat you up!
“Tch-”
Seemingly thinking that Lin Sen was also frightened, the neighbors sneered in disdain.
However, he did not continue to act.
Lin Sen was not in a hurry. There was still a long time till the end of the day.
Moreover, his sister had not left work yet. The first target of these people who bullied the weak and feared the strong would definitely be his sister.
Thinking of this, Lin Sen’s gaze turned even colder.
Evening.
The setting sun was like blood.
Liu Xiangxiang went home from work and passed by her neighbors. Just as she was about to walk around them and go home, a young man called her from behind.
“Hey, Liu Xiangxiang, I’m still short of a million dollars for my betrothal gift. Can you be generous and lend it to me?”
“One million? Are you crazy? How can I lend you one million?
“Also, are you not going to return the 10,000 Xia dollars I lent you previously?”
A bad feeling rose in Liu Xiangxiang’s heart. She wanted to go around him, but she was stopped by another buck-toothed young man.
“Ha, you’re still pretending. Don’t think we don’t know!”
“Your brother earned five million dollars at the beast material trading shop. I saw it very clearly!”
“He’s just a farmer. How can he have so many precious materials? Did he steal? Or cheat?”
“If you don’t want the people from the Public Order Department to investigate your brother, just behave and ‘lend’ the five million dollars to us!”
