The Chosen One Wants to Send His Daughter Again?!
"What should I do? They'll soon find out I'm just bluffing, and Chen Beiyuan won't care about me anymore!"
"Damn it, those greedy bastards! When the Leng family was in trouble, they ran off with all their belongings. Now that things are settled, they're all coming back to seize the ancestral home, and they even want to use their status as elders to sell me out..."
"They caused my dad to become a vegetable, and now they're trying to sell me for a good price, claiming it's to revive the Leng family. A bunch of bloodsucking, despicable bastards..."
Leng Ruobing's face was grim, her hands clenched tightly, and a murderous intent flashed in her eyes without any attempt to conceal it.
Clearly, she has been quite upset by those "relatives" these past few days.
Those people are nothing but scum who wear human skin and suck human blood.
Those people not only wanted to occupy the Leng family's ancestral home, but also claimed to have found her a good place to live.
A scion of a wealthy and powerful family had long admired her and was willing to take her as his concubine.
What is a mistress/concubine?
In reality, it's a mistress kept outside the home.
"Even if I were to become Chen Beiyuan's mistress, I would never become the mistress of some worthless rich kid."
He was cold and his face was gloomy.
If she weren't lacking in strength, she would have turned against the Leng family in a heartbeat.
However, among those people were several ancient elders who were fourth-rank warriors.
She was only at the peak of the third-grade battle spirit.
"If I were alone, I could easily hide in Donghua Academy. No matter how arrogant those people are, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble there. But Dad is now in a vegetative state and needs someone to take care of him..."
"Chen Beiyuan can't help me anymore. From now on, I can only rely on myself. As long as I break through to the fourth-rank warrior level and apply for early graduation from the academy, everything will get better..."
Through years of arduous training and the support of her family, her cultivation has reached the peak of the third-grade battle spirit, and she is only one step away from condensing her battle soul and achieving the fourth grade.
Once you break through to the fourth rank of warrior, apply for early graduation, pass the graduation test, and obtain a "letter of recommendation," you can then enter a powerful imperial department to take up a position.
With this identity, the Leng family members will have some reservations and won't dare to act so recklessly anymore!
"Mountains crumble, people fall; only self-strengthening is the true path!"
"Once you can get a 'letter of recommendation,' you've already succeeded halfway and entered the system of the Donghua Empire."
"At that time, I, Leng Ruobing, can also rely on my own efforts to gradually become a high-ranking official in the empire and a truly important figure."
"That way, we can find my mother as soon as possible..."
The coldness on Leng Ruobing's face dissipated, and her eyes gradually became excited, as if she had found a way to solve her current predicament.
Just as she was lost in beautiful fantasies about the future.
A phone call abruptly interrupted her.
The caller was none other than Lin Xiao!
Leng Ruobing frowned, her face revealing undisguised disgust, and hung up on him directly.
However, Lin Xiao was extremely persistent, calling repeatedly...
The incessant ringing of the phone instantly turned Leng Ruobing's gradually improving mood into one of irritability.
Finally, on the tenth call, Leng Ruobing couldn't hold back any longer and answered the phone directly, her voice icy as she rebuked:
"Lin Xiao, what exactly do you want...?"
"Ruobing, I've found your aunt."
Lin Xiao's excited voice, barely able to contain itself, came from the other end of the phone.
His words left Leng Ruobing stunned on the spot.
Mother, have you found her?!
...
Kyoto nightclub, the Supreme Emperor Box.
"I found your mother through the Lin family's connections. Her condition isn't good right now; she's still in a coma..."
"Yes, she's with me right now. Please come over as soon as possible..."
Lin Xiao quickly hung up the phone, looked at Lin Jiuxiao beside him, and, forcing back the bitterness in his heart, said:
She said she'd be there in half an hour!
"Haha, it has to be Brother Lin! I really admire your acting skills just now. If you were to go into acting, you would definitely win a Best Actor award!"
Upon hearing this good news, Lin Jiuxiao's face showed undisguised excitement.
Ever since he saw Leng Ruobing at the Imperial Club a few days ago, he has been obsessed with this aloof and beautiful school beauty, and he can't get her out of his mind.
Even while recuperating at the Lin family's house these past few days, he hasn't stopped. On the contrary, he seems obsessed, increasingly wanting to taste the flavors of one of the four beauties of Yanjing...
I heard that Chen Beiyuan pursued this woman for six years, but then he only spent one night with her and then dumped her. What a waste!
Then let Mr. Lin have a go!
Therefore, he specifically asked Lin Xiao to arrange a meeting with her, intending to take care of it for her right there!
"Brother Lin, as your brother, I will never forget you for helping me with this. I have already sent someone to get the 'Thousand-Year Poison Dragon Grass' you needed..."
"Then thank you very much, Jiuxiao!"
Despite obtaining the treasures he needed, Lin Xiao was not happy at the moment; instead, he felt a strange sense of loss.
He actually stooped so low as to trade his favorite goddess for resources?!
Isn't this just pimping?!
How is this any different from those pimps in the Dream of the Red Chamber?
Previously, Chen Beiyuan could convince himself that it was a choice he had to make out of necessity.
But is the current situation truly a last resort?!
He could have refused!
But he still agreed!
At this moment, the excited Lin Jiuxiao naturally noticed the hint of dejection in him, and couldn't help but connect it to something, and then spoke:
"Brother Lin, you wouldn't happen to like this woman too, would you? I heard you were humiliated at Donghua Academy because you were fighting with Chen Beiyuan over her..."
At this point, Lin Jiuxiao's gloomy face seemed hesitant for a moment, then, as if he had made a great decision:
"Alright, as brothers, we should always be loyal. When Leng Ruobing arrives, you come too, and we'll take care of her together!"
Clearly, Lin Jiuxiao truly considered Lin Xiao a brother; otherwise, given his spoiled and dissolute nature, how could he possibly say something like that?
It's impossible to tell him to give up.
Then let's go together, brothers.
Lin Xiao's expression changed slightly, as if he was somewhat tempted. He was even more excited at the thought of what might happen next.
However, the guilt and sense of indebtedness he felt towards Leng Ruobing made him afraid to stay and face her.
In particular, they had to stand by and watch the other party be humiliated...
"Never mind, Jiuxiao, just have fun!"
"I won't stay here and bother you any longer, so I'll take my leave now!"
Ignoring Lin Jiuxiao's attempts to persuade him to stay, Lin Xiao resolutely left the private room and walked outside.
"Being born into poverty means you have to resort to any means necessary. I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong, I didn't want to, I didn't want to..."
"What can I do? What can I do?!"
"Even if I don't agree, do you think Lin Jiuxiao will let Leng Ruobing go? Impossible, impossible. He'll definitely use other methods. In that case, I might as well take some benefits..."
"I simply made the choice that was best for me..."
"That innocent and kind-hearted boy from the mountains is dead, dead. I killed him with my own hands, I killed him with my own hands..."
"This damned world can't retain a single good person..."
He lowered his head, muttering to himself, becoming erratic and seemingly insane.
He didn't even notice when he accidentally bumped into someone at the entrance of the nightclub.
"Which son of a bitch dares to bump into me, grandpa...?"
Bai Yuze, who had just been bumped into, was about to start cursing when he was stunned by Lin Xiao's distraught and self-talking appearance.
"Lin Xiao? What's wrong with him? Did someone in his family die and he had a mental breakdown and went crazy?"
Before he could react, he watched as Lin Xiao disappeared into the night, seemingly lost in thought.
Just then, a hurried figure rushed towards them, his face showing anxiety.
Bai Yuze, who was standing there in a daze, almost got bumped again and quickly dodged.
But just as he dodged, Bai Yuze clearly saw the true appearance of the hurried figure.
"Leng Ruobing? What's she doing here!"
