Hearing what Mo Linyuan said, Leng Qingqing laughed. “Fourth Master, do you have a misunderstanding about your wife? She is my stepsister. Her mother died when she was young and she was abandoned in the countryside. She is not noble at all. Fourth Master, you better face the truth. Leng Rongrong is not a noble person, nor are you! Do you still think you are the Fourth Master who used to be so powerful?”
A cripple, and a wild kid from the countryside. They were still living in the fantasy world…
Instead of saying anything further, Mo Linyuan gazed at Leng Qingqing with the pair of black eyes.
He seemed to egg her on.
Leng Qingqing became fearless in her zeal to show her support towards Li Chenle.
“Fourth Master, do you honestly think that you can ever be cured? If it was possible, you would have been treated ages ago. You used to be the dominator, but now, you are a nobody in the Mo Family. That’s why the Mo Family has driven you out. Do you still think that you will be able to gain back your power? Keep dreaming.”
With that, Leng Qingqing turned to look at Leng Rongrong. “Same for you! You married a cripple and have no support or identity. Do you think that your life is going to be smooth sailing? No way! Release the Master of the Li Family. I am warning you, the Li Family will not let this matter go!”
“Not possible to gain back my power?” Mo Linyuan gave her a terrifying look.
“What? You really are thinking of fighting for your lost glory?” Leng Qingqing laughed. “You are so naive. Have your legs been crippled or your brain?”
Mo Linyuan: “….”
Thud!
Mo Linyuan struck hard on Leng Qingqing’s mouth with the stick.
Leng Qingqing had been talking happily with her arms on the waist. But this hit made her mouth swell up immediately.
“What do you think you are doing?”
Women were always extremely conscious about their looks. When Leng Qingqing felt her mouth swell up, she became furious.
But Leng Rongrong burst into laughter.
Leng Qingqing’s lips looked like sausages right now. It was damn funny.
“What are you laughing at?” Leng Qingqing turned mad. She felt that her lips were burning in pain.
“You can check yourself in the mirror to understand the reason behind my laughter.” Leng Rongrong told her smugly.
Leng Qingqing checked her reflection in the window of the car next to her. Suddenly, her brain went into a frenzy at the sight of her bloated lips.
Covering her lips with her hand, she did not dare utter a word, but gazed at Mo Linyuan in naked hatred.
Mo Linyuan flung the stick away and said, “Get out of here!”
Leng Qingqing walked out with Li Chenle trailing behind her. He had just managed to get up from the floor. As he was dashing off the scene, Li Chenle turned around and threw a fierce look at Leng Rongrong and Mo Linyuan at the same time.
“Just wait and see, you will never get away with this!”
Leng Rongrong: “…..”
She looked at Mo Linyuan and asked him in a serious tone. “Should we be afraid of them? It seems that the Li Family has a strong background. I had been living in the countryside all this while, so I don’t know the situation in the city.”
“No need to fear them.” Mo Linyuan said calmly.
Leng Rongrong nodded. “Alright then, I am scared of nothing, but I am worried that you will be bullied. What if I am not at home and someone comes to make trouble for you… that would not be good.”
Thinking of this matter, Leng Rongrong glanced at Mo Linyuan. “You want to keep a dog? A guard dog?”
Mo Linyuan said, “… whatever you like.”
“I have a huge guard dog in the countryside. He is amazing. I can get him here to help protect our home.”
Leng Rongrong thought that if she was away from home, Storm could keep Mo Linyuan safe. It sounded like a good idea.
Mo Linyuan was quite amazing, but with Storm around, he would be better protected.
Also, Storm would always be able to inform her if anything happened at home. After all, Storm was an amazing and smart animal who understood people. Moreover, she had a speciality – she could converse with animals.
Mo Linyuan did not like animals, but seeing Leng Rongrong’s excited face, he did not turn the proposal down.
After they left the car store, Leng Rongrong took Mo Linyuan along and went shopping for other stuff.
She bought everything that was missing at home, furniture, food etc.
She bought a few outfits for herself and even picked a few sets of clothes for Mo Linyuan.
She bought two sets for Tang Luo as well because he seemed like a nice person, just like her own brother.
Although she had claimed to be poor, Leng Rongrong was behaving like a profligate.
She never checked the price and bought everything that she liked without reining in her impulse.
When they entered a few luxurious stores in their current poor dresses, they were looked down upon by the staff there. But once she started the crazy shopping spree, they were shocked into silence by Leng Rongrong’s actions.
Women tended to become irrational when it came to shopping, and Leng Rongrong was on her way to being one as well.
She almost bought the entire collection at a few stores.
How did this countryside girl learn to shop?
Apart from the sales assistants, even Mo Linyuan and Tang Luo found the whole thing bizarre.
She had booked two luxurious cars and spent so much money upon other things as well, all in a matter of hours.
Where on earth did Madam come from? Where did she get so much money from?
Leng Rongrong did not explain her source of money, and Mo Linyuan did not ask her about it either. But both men were quite confused
They had taken her to be a poor, ignorant girl at the beginning. But now it seemed that neither was she poor, nor did she seem ignorant…
She had knowledge of all kinds of luxurious brands. She knew what stuff was handy and what cars were good.
Moreover, the way she talked showcased her generosity and inner qualities.
She did not seem to be someone who had grown up in the countryside.
After shopping, they came back home. Leng Rongrong claimed that she was extremely tired. So she went back to her room to rest.
Mo Linyuan instructed Tang Luo softly. “Investigate her. I need to know who she is!”
“Okay…”Tang Luo nodded. “Master, I saw the balance in Madam’s card. It is…”
“Of course.” Mo Linyuan threw a look at Tang Luo. He knew how much bare minimum money would be there in that card. He recognized the card well enough.
Even the richest person in this whole city would not have as much money as she did.
