Bab 20: What a Fake Fall Really Is
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
"Okay."
Ling Mo readily agreed and grabbed Su Yu's wrist tightly. She practically dragged her along as she strode towards the door.
Su Yu frowned and said bluntly, "Mo Mo, you're hurting me."
After pushing open the principal's office door with one hand, Ling Mo suddenly turned her head and said with a faint smile, "Aunty is going to stage another fake fall this time? The best actress is indeed the best actress. She is always thinking of improving her acting skills."
"You..."
Ling Mo had seen through Su Yu's thoughts, and the colours of her face changed.
Even though she had a glib tongue, she seemed to have lost the ability to speak. After a long time, she was still unable to utter a word.
She subconsciously glanced at Zhu Siliang, who was sitting on the office chair and studying the answer sheet intently. When she saw that he did not notice anything, she relaxed and asked Ling Mo in an unfriendly tone, "What do you mean?"
The corner of Ling Mo's lips curled up. She pulled out a mischievous smile that was difficult to decipher. The smile could dazzle all living beings. She enunciated each word clearly, "Open your eyes and look carefully. Today, I'll show what a fake fall really is."
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly pulled Su Yu's hand straight and leaned back. She pretended to be frightened and muttered in a low voice, "Aunty, you..."
"I..."
Su Yu secretly panicked in her heart and hurriedly shook off Ling Mo's hand. Her tone was slightly raised due to her overly excited emotions. "Don't slander me!"
When the students passing by the principal's office saw Su Yu aggressively charging at Ling Mo who had fallen to the side, they felt sorry for Ling Mo who was in a disadvantaged position.
When Gu Bai, who was passing by the principal's office, heard the situation, he instinctively dodged to the side, afraid that he would be burnt by the flames of war between the two women.
However, when he saw Ling Mo's appearance clearly, he swore a few times in succession. He staggered and almost fell to the ground.
In order not to embarrass himself in front of this beauty, he hurriedly steadied himself and only dared to peek at her from the corner of his eyes.
Oh my god!
Even the fairy sister in Jin Yong's novel was only so-so compared to her?!
She had big eyes and long lashes, and her gaze was extremely seductive. It was pure, yet lustful, and carried the vibe of a badass.
She had a high nose and thin lips, and her every frown and smile exuded a charm that was incomparable.
Coupled with her clean and fair skin, she was simply even more charming than Lu Jinjiu.
Gu Tingbai sucked the saliva that was about to spill out of his mouth and muttered to himself, "Why does it feel like I've seen this girl before in my dreams?"
He scratched his head in confusion and pondered for a long while before he finally remembered where he had seen her before.
Last night, Lu Jinjiu had shown him a photo of Ling Mo in a daze, saying that this girl was very likely to take down Qin Beiming. Not only that, Lu Jinjiu had also said that Qin Beiming fell in love with her at first sight and she was extremely precious to him...
Damn!
Wasn't this... too much of a coincidence?
Gu Tingbai shook his head forcefully. After realizing that this was not a dream, his attitude changed drastically, "Classmate, are you alright?"
He bent down and reached out his hand to Ling Mo in a friendly manner.
He had to protect the girl that third brother Qin had taken a fancy to.
"I'm fine."
Ling Mo raised her dark eyes and looked at Gu Tingbai, who was also wearing a high school uniform, in slight surprise.
In her previous life, he only knew that Gu Tingbai was born into a wealthy family in Linjiang City, but she did not know that they had been schoolmates before.
Now that she thought about it, all of this should be fate.
"Ling Mo, tell me clearly, when did I push you?"
Su Yu's tone was unfriendly as she looked coldly at Ling Mo who was used to acting. Suddenly, she realized that she seemed to have underestimated her.
When she thought about how she had been played by a little girl time and time again, Su Yu wished she could slap her pretty little face.
"If you say you didn't, then so be it."
Ling Mo replied indifferently, stood up, and walked towards the direction of the third-year teaching building without looking back.
"Classmate, are you really alright? Do you need me to carry you?"
Gu Tingbai followed behind Ling Mo like a little follower. As soon as he said this, he suddenly realized that Qin Beiming is a germaphobe, so he quickly added, "Third brother is so stingy. If he knew that I carried you, he would definitely chop off my head. Why don't I go to the infirmary to get a stretcher and carry you away?"
"Noob! Every time someone is on the stretcher, it seems to be you, right?"
Ling Mo could not help but laugh out loud when she recalled Gu Tingbai who kept dying in games.
"Sister-in-law's smile is very sweet."
Gu Tingbai scratched his head. Although he did not understand Ling Mo's words, he still laughed along with her.
Sister-in-law?
Ling Mo was confused. How did she become his sister-in-law?
She remembered that Gu Tingbai had an entrepreneur brother.
But the problem was that she and his brother seemed to have never met before, right?
Calling her sister-in-law really came out of nowhere.
After hearing that, Gu Tingbai realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he stammered to explain, "Classmate, don't misunderstand. I just suddenly thought of a famous saying, and in a moment of excitement, I accidentally called you sister-in-law."
Ling Mo raised her eyebrows and asked casually, "Which one?"
As far as she knew, Gu Tingbai was good at science and bad at liberal arts.
Until now, she still remembered that Gu Tingbai once said that Pan Jinlian was a character in the Analects of Confucius. She laughed so hard that she almost died on the spot.
With the previous experience, she was really curious about what other famous words could come out of Gu Tingbai's mouth.
Gu Tingbai had no idea what Ling Mo was thinking. He replied casually, "Dumplings are best when you're hungry, sister-in-law is best when you're..."
After saying this, he could no longer continue.
He slapped his forehead. Without waiting for Ling Mo to speak, he disappeared without a trace.
F * ck!
What was wrong with him today?
If Qin Beiming found out that he had almost flirted with Ling Mo, wouldn't he be finished!
Ling Mo looked at Gu Tingbai's retreating figure and cursed in a low voice, "I treat you as my little brother, but you want to flirt with me?"
Su Yu, who was frozen in the principal's office, stared straight at Ling Mo, who was messing around with Gu Tingbai. She was so angry that she was about to go crazy.
She hurriedly walked out of the teaching building and called her former manager, Zhao Jingchun, "Brother Zhao, something has happened to me."
"Don't worry, you can tell me what it is."
"The entertainment reporters stationed at First High School seem to have taken pictures of me pushing Ling Mo. Do you think you can use your connections to get the negative back?"
Zhao Jingchun put out the cigarette in his hand and his tone became even more serious, "Why are you so careless? After the commotion last night, how many netizens are waiting to see you make a fool of yourself? Even if you're holding back your anger, you shouldn't have pushed her in public."
Su Yu was extremely depressed. If she had known that Ling Mo was so capable, she would have been more careful.
But now, even if she had eight mouths, she couldn't win against a captured photo.
After pondering for a moment, she took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "Tell me, how much do you need?"
"Two million."
"What? Isn't it obvious that you're scamming me!" Su Yu widened her eyes and kicked the stone steps in anger. She lost ten centimeters of her stilettos and even accidentally twisted her ankle.
