Chapter 178: It’s Him!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xu Youyou felt depressed. She wondered if it was because she looked fickle or if it was because Mo Zhiyun was too naive? Why did Mo Zhiyun think she would get back together with Lin Yin? She wondered if Mo Zhiyun thought Mo Shenbai did not treat her well enough.
Su Lanxu saw the sour expression on Xu Youyou’s face so she finally stopped laughing. She explained to Mo Zhiyun on Xu Youyou’s behalf, “Don’t worry. Your sister-in-law has already stepped back from the precipice, and she has already seen the light.”
Lin Yin was the dark, and Mo Shenbai was the light.
Mo Zhiyun finally sighed in relief after she heard Su Lanxu’s words. However, she still asked, “Then, why did he look for Youyou?”
Su Lanxu sneered. “What else could it be for? He just wanted to plead on behalf of his trashy sister.”
Mo Zhiyun’s expression was one of disdain as she said, “His sister is so wicked, but he still wants to plead for her? Why should Youyou let her go? It’s not like they’re family!”
Xu Youyou wanted to explain to Mo Zhiyun that Lin Yin did not come to plead for Lin Zhihuan. However, when she thought about Mo Zhiyun possibly misunderstanding the matter and spreading it to Mo Shenbai, she dismissed the idea.
‘If he gets jealous again… Forget it. It’s better to let Zhiyun misunderstand…’
…
Lin Zhihuan’s case progressed very quickly. From the time the case was filed to the end of the trial, only half a month had passed.
She was found guilty of slandering Xu Youyou and was thus sentenced to a year in prison. She also had to compensate Xu Youyou for causing Xu Youyou mental distress and apologize publicly.
Lin Huai was probably completely disappointed in his daughter and had completely given up on her. Apart from hiring a lawyer for her, he did not look for the Xu family again nor did he do anything else.
As for Wang Xiaohui, she went to the Xu family house a few times to cry and make a scene. She even smashed things.
Cheng Ying, who usually had a soft heart, did not give into Wang Xiaohui. She remained unmoved even as Wang Xiaohui shamelessly caused a scene. She called the security guards of the residential area to chase Wang Xiaohui away. After that, she even called Xu Youyou and told Xu Youyou not to come home for the time being, afraid that Xu Youyou would run into Wang Xiaohui.
It was useless for Wang Xiaohui to go to the Xu family house, and it was useless for her to go to the hospital to see Old Madam Xu. In the end, she decided to look for Xu Youyou directly at the university. She waited at the entrance of the university, and as soon as she saw Xu Youyou, she stepped forward and blocked Xu Youyou’s path.
In front of all the university students, Wang Xiaohui cursed loudly, “You little b*tch! You ingrate! What did our Lin family ever do to you? How dare you treat our Huanhuan like that? If it weren’t for our Lin family, would your Xu family be where they are today?”
At this time, most of the classes were over, and the students were just leaving. Hence, there was quite a huge crowd at the entrance of the university. Everyone stopped moving and watched the bloody show before them.
Xu Youyou looked at the cursing Wang Xiaohui and said coldly, “Ms. Wang, Lin Zhihuan slandered me and tarnished my reputation. The court found her guilty. If you don’t like it, you can file an appeal. It’s useless for you to make a scene here.”
In fact, Wang Xiaohui wanted to file an appeal as well, but Lin Huai refused. Even her son, Lin Yin, did not care about this matter. However, she really could not sit still and watch her daughter being sent to prison. It did not matter to her that even the lawyer suggested that they low and forgo filing an appeal. The lawyer said that Lin Zhihuan might have her sentence reduced for good behavior if they did not file an appeal. However, how could she let her daughter stay in prison? It did not matter if it was a year, a few months, or even a few days.
Wang Xiaohui pointed at Xu Youyou and scolded in a shrill voice, “The court? Do you think I’m unaware that you bribed the judge? You shameless little b*tch! I still don’t know when you hooked up with that old man and cheated on my son!”
Just as Xu Youyou was about to speak up, a black handbag flew over from the side and accurately hit Wang Xiaohui’s head.
“Watch your mouth! My brother isn’t an old man!” Mo Zhiyun said indignantly.
Who knew what Mo Zhiyun kept in her bag, but when it hit Wang Xiaohui, it made Wang Xiaohui dizzy. When Wang Xiaohui finally regained her senses, she glared at Mo Zhiyun and began screeching again, “So you’re that shameless old man’s sister! Hah! What’s so great about having a little more smelly money than others?”
Mo Zhiyun raised her chin proudly and said confidently, “Having a little more smelly money isn’t great at all. You seem to have a misunderstanding. My brother doesn’t just have a little more money than others; he has a lot more money than others! He’s wealthy beyond your imaginations.”
Wang Xiaohui scoffed. “Ha! How wealthy can he be? Can he be wealthier than the Mo Group in Mo City?!”
Xu Youyou looked at Wang Xiaohui, feeling speechless. ‘That’s him you’re talking about…’
Mo Zhiyun smiled dazzlingly upon hearing these words. She said, “Have you considered the possibility that my brother is Mo Shenbai of the Mo Group?”
The last few words were heavily emphasized by Xu Youyou.
The students in the surroundings began to whisper among themselves upon hearing these words. After all, there had been rumors that Xu Youyou from the art department had some kind of relationship with Mo Shenbai.
As for the students in the computer science department, they recognized the cheerful Mo Zhiyun. They knew her surname was Mo so they thought perhaps, Mo Shenbai was really her brother.
Wang Xiaohui was briefly stunned. However, she quickly recovered and said mockingly, “Hey, where did you come from? You really don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. If Mo Shenbai is your brother, then I’m his ancestor!”
Although Mo Zhiyun did not hold much power in the Mo family, everyone would still address her as Miss Mo and show her respect. She had never met such an unreasonable shrew in her entire life.
At this moment, Xu Youyou grabbed Mo Zhiyun’s hand and said in a soft voice, “Zhiyun, forget it. Don’t waste your time with such a person.”
When Wang Xiaohui saw Xu Youyou pulling Mo Zhiyun, clearly intending on leaving, she hurriedly grabbed Xu Youyou.
Mo Zhiyun was so anxious to protect Xu Youyou that she reacted quickly and pushed Wang Xiaohui’s hand away. “Don’t touch my sister-in-law!”
“Ouch! You actually dare to hit me! Everyone here saw it! You attacked me first! I’m only defending myself,” Wang Xiaohui shouted as she raised her hand to hit Mo Zhiyun.
Mo Zhiyun was energetic and had a fiery spirit. However, faced with such a situation, she still froze, unable to react in time.
However, Xu Youyou reacted quickly. She reached out and pulled Mo Zhiyun back, shielding Mo Zhiyun. She could only watch helplessly as Wang Xiaohui’s hand fall on her.
The students in the surroundings gasped.
When the pain Xu Youyou had been expecting did not come, she turned to the side. She saw a handsome young man grabbing Wang Xiaohui’s hand.
Mo Zhiyun was stunned when she saw the handsome young man.
‘It’s him! The boy with the No.7 jersey!’
The young man let go of Wang Xiaohui’s hand and said calmly, “This is the university. If you continue to make a scene, I’ll call security.”
“Fine! Call the security then! The more people, the merrier. Everyone can help me judge this matter!” Wang Xiaohui said shamelessly and fearlessly. She was determined to embarrass Xu Youyou in Mo City University; she wanted to make sure Xu Youyou would not be able to raise her head at the university ever again.
‘What right does she have to live a carefree life when Huanhuan is in jail? Huanhuan’s life is ruined!’
The young man was about to speak when a puzzled voice rang in the air.
“What is everyone doing here?”
Then, a middle-aged man with a receding hairline walked over. He was dressed in a polo shirt and a pair of trousers. He wore a displeased expression on his face as he said, “Why are all of you loitering here after class? You should go eat or go home. Don’t loiter here and affect…”
The middle-aged man stopped speaking abruptly when his eyes landed on Mo Zhiyun. His expression changed immediately as he called out, “M-miss Mo!”
The middle-aged man’s abrupt change and polite tone shocked everyone. Then, they turned to look at Mo Zhiyun in disbelief. They could not believe how polite the principal of the university was when he addressed Mo Zhiyun as Miss Mo.
The principal asked with a concerned expression, “Miss Mo, did you encounter a problem?”
Mo Zhiyun did not care about the thoughts of the people around her. She pointed at Wang Xiaohui and said unhappily, “This woman caused a scene in our university and even spoke ill of the students. This is really bad for our university’s reputation!”
