"!!!" Yang Qingxi imdiately stiffened.
Then she hurriedly spoke:
"Didn’t he already explain things clearly? There’s no such relationship between us."
"Heh." Yang Qingyun sneered lightly. "Do you think I’d actually believe that nonsense?"
Yang Qingxi froze slightly.
anwhile, Yang Qingyun continued calmly:
"I was simply enjoying myself watching that boy desperately struggle to invent excuses."
"And your little secret signals weren’t exactly subtle either."
Her lips curled upward.
"Do you think I’m blind?"
"...."
Yang Qingxi instantly beca speechless.
So, her mother had already seen through everything from the beginning?
Yang Qingyun lightly sighed.
"I could tell he had no ill intentions toward you."
"Or towards our family."
"That’s why I played along."
Honestly, watching Su Mo continuously improvise his ridiculous, mysterious master story had been extrely entertaining.
Especially his fake profound expressions, the dramatic sighs. His "hidden expert" act.
Yang Qingyun almost laughed several tis.
Still, amusent was amusent.
Now she genuinely wanted answers.
Her expression gradually beca serious again.
"So, enough gas."
"Tell the truth."
"I want to know everything."
"Do you understand?"
Yang Qingxi remained silent for several seconds.
"...Alright."
She softly sighed.
As expected, this was still her mother. Nothing escaped her eyes.
The earlier playfulness had rely been one of her quirks.
In reality, her instincts remained terrifyingly sharp.
Soon, Yang Qingxi rembered sothing Su Mo had told her previously.
’There’s no need to hide certain things from your parents.’
At that ti, Su Mo said it casually based on his understanding of the original story and the Yang Family’s deep familial bonds.
anwhile, Yang Qingxi herself always knew his words were correct.
She had simply felt it was unnecessary to drag them into dangerous matters involving destiny, protagonists, and systems.
However, she can’t escape the fact that the mont her brother beca a villain, she beca the "Villainess".
Her family was already involved in this struggle of destinies.
Staying ignorant might actually beco more dangerous for them now.
Yang Qingxi slowly closed her eyes briefly.
Then, her gaze gradually beca firm.
She had made her decision.
No more excuses. No more hiding.
She would reveal all the ’truth’ to her mother.
***
Su Mo had absolutely no idea that all his dramatic explanations and clumsy excuses were as transparent as distilled water before Mother Yang’s sharp eyes.
At this very mont, he was still secretly feeling proud of himself.
’My acting today was flawless. As expected of .’
Completely unaware that Yang Qingyun had already ntally labeled him as "Suspicious but Harmless."
anwhile, after leaving the Yang Estate together with Li i, Su Mo directly drove toward his company.
Ankang Biotech.
CEO’s Office.
Inside the spacious office, Leng Shuang sat calmly behind her desk.
Wearing a clean white office suit together with silver-frad glasses, her cold and capable aura perfectly matched the professional environnt around her.
However, the woman sitting opposite her completely destroyed the office atmosphere. The contrast was honestly painful to look at.
"I really didn’t expect you to arrive this quickly, Qian Lian."
Leng Shuang adjusted her glasses slightly while looking at the woman sprawled lazily across the sofa.
"How did Miss Hobody suddenly decide to crawl out of her nest?"
"And even travel thousands of miles for it."
The contrast between the two won was honestly ridiculous.
Leng Shuang sat upright behind the office desk in a clean white office suit, her silver-frad glasses giving off a capable elite aura.
anwhile, Qian Lian looked like she had barely survived society.
Her hair was ssy and uncombed. Heavy dark circles surrounded her eyes.
Her pale face clearly showed the consequences of soone who had not seen proper sunlight in months.
Even the faint scent around her carried traces of vitamin tablets and energy drinks.
At this mont, she hugged a milkshake cup while drinking from it weakly, like a dying patient.
After hearing Leng Shuang’s teasing, Qian Lian slowly raised her head.
Then she yawned tiredly.
"You still have the mood to joke..."
Her voice sounded aggrieved.
"Do you even know what I suffered through to get here?"
Leng Shuang raised a brow slightly.
"...What happened? Did you run into trouble?"
"Trouble?" Qian Lian’s expression instantly beca emotional.
"It was hell."
She sat upright imdiately and began counting on her fingers.
"I got lost six tis, was scamd, robbed, and I almost missed my flight."
The more she spoke, the more wronged she looked.
anwhile, Leng Shuang silently listened.
Honestly... that level of bad luck almost sounded impressive.
"So how did you solve it?" she finally asked, "Did you call the police?"
"Police?"
Qian Lian blinked innocently. Then shook her head.
"No."
"I hacked the city surveillance system to find my way."
Leng Shuang: "..."
Qian Lian continued naturally:
"The taxi driver who scamd had three hidden bank accounts, two fake IDs and a mistress in another city."
"So I emptied all his money."
"Let’s see if he dares scam cute girls again in the future."
Leng Shuang silently pressed her forehead.
anwhile, Qian Lian looked completely justified.
"As for the robber..." She sipped her milkshake calmly. "I emptied his account, too."
"Then I traced the location of his gang’s hideout and anonymously sent all the information to the security departnt."
"Oh, right."
"I also emptied the gang’s accounts."
"..."
Leng Shuang’s lips twitched slightly.
There were honestly too many things wrong here.
Especially the "getting lost" part.
Couldn’t this woman simply open a GPS like a normal person?
Then again—
After knowing Qian Lian for years, Leng Shuang understood sothing clearly.
For Qian Lian, hacking a city’s security network was ntally easier than properly using a navigation app.
At this point, common sense no longer applied to her.
anwhile, Qian Lian still looked aggrieved.
"And because I spent too much ti handling those idiots..."
She slowly lowered her milkshake cup.
"I almost missed my flight."
Leng Shuang nodded slightly. "That part sounds normal, at least. Did you buy another ticket?"
Then, Qian Lian calmly added:
"So I hacked the airport command center and delayed the departure by twenty minutes."
