章 14: They Were A Good Match
編集者: Dragon Boat Translation
"Miss Mo, I've placed your package on the table."
When the sharp-faced Nanny Wu pushed the door open and entered, Ling Mo was still immersed in the game. She didn't even lift her eyelids.
She was determined to win tonight's Champions' League.
In her previous life, when she was in the Super God Arena City, she had formed a deep friendship with Gu Tingbai and Qiao Feng because of this game. Now, there was still half a year before Super God Arena City opened up the 20th tournament to the public and recruited talents from all walks of life. She could use the game to get to know them half a year in advance.
Half a year was enough to change a lot of things. It was enough to defy the heavens and change fate.
It was enough to protect the people she wanted to protect.
Nanny Wu stayed in Ling Mo's room for a short while. Seeing that she was immersed in playing games, the disdain in her eyes could not even be hidden.
She thought to herself, a wild girl from the countryside, even as the Ling family's eldest daughter, was still a pheasant that could not be shown in public.
While Ling Tian was studying hard, Ling Mo was playing games. If this continued, the gap between the two of them would definitely grow bigger and bigger. She believed that after a few years, she, who had achieved nothing, would not even be worthy of carrying Ling Tian's shoes.
Madam Wu shook her head in disdain and rolled her eyes indecently. She wiped her hands on her apron, and in the blink of an eye, she went to deliver bird's nest soup to Ling Tian
After Ling Mo led her four teammates to successfully win the Champion's League, Gu Tingbai, who was on the other end of the screen, jumped up from the sofa excitedly. He forcefully pulled Gu Nanfeng, who had just returned from a business trip, to show off, "Brother, look! I've won the championship."
Gu Nanfeng glanced at him perfunctorily. He obviously didn't believe that Gu Tingbai had such skills. "You cheated? With your skills, even top-tier players can't carry you."
"Who are you looking down on?"
Gu Tingbai tilted his nose and proudly extended his hand to Gu Nanfeng, "Give me the car keys and admit your loss. You said yourself last time that if I could win the championship, you would lend me the newly acquired Phantom for a month."
"Take it."
Gu Nanfeng casually took out a bunch of keys from his trouser pocket and threw them into his hands. After changing into casual clothes, he dragged him to the garage. "I heard that third brother has taken a fancy to a girl. Come with me to Only."
"You bunch of old bachelors. You don't even go to bars to pick up girls. You only know how to play cards. It's boring. Not only that, in the end, I'm the one who loses money every time. I'm not going."
"I've been drinking. Drive me."
Gu Nanfeng confiscated his phone and dragged him into the car.
"Third brother Qin has been a bachelor for so many years. Are you sure there's really a girl who is worthy of his attention?"
Gu Tingbai muttered softly. If it were any other time, he would be happy to make this trip.
The problem was that he had just added Ling Mo's Wechat. Before he could say hello, Gu Nanfeng had confiscated his phone. His heart was really itchy.
"Brother, quickly return my phone to me. The god is still waiting for me to reply!"
"Focus on driving. I'll reply on your behalf."
Gu Nanfeng was somewhat interested in the god that Gu Tingbai mentioned.
Gu Tingbai was obviously a five-time loser. He had once been reported by his teammates for being too weak and had his account blocked.
He really couldn't imagine that there was someone in this world who could lead Gu Tingbai to the professional league.
Coincidentally, just as he opened wechat, Ling Mo just happened to send him a message.
[ It's been hard on you tonight. Shall we meet someday? ]
[ Why not now. VIP room at Only on the second floor, waiting for you. ]
[ I have a class tomorrow, I can't go. ]
After replying on Wechat, Ling Mo put down her phone and started to study the box of colorful underwear on her desk.
Gu Nanfeng received the reply and asked Gu Tingbai in puzzlement, "This god you mentioned, is he still studying?"
"I've never asked about that. I only know that the god is ghetto. When he was playing the game, he kept swearing."
"The god's is so wild? Or is it because of you?"
When Gu Nanfeng thought of how Gu Tingbai, this pig, was scolded by his teammates, he deviated from his usual elegant and proud manner and laughed loudly.
"Bullsh*t! It's not because of me. The god only scolded me because she was in a bad mood. As a girl, there are always a few days every month when she gets a little emotional. How can I take it personally?"
"A girl?"
Gu Nanfeng did not expect that the almighty who could elevate his pig teammate was actually a girl.
Out of curiosity, he opened Ling Mo's Wechat profile picture again. He opened his eyes wide and looked at it carefully for a full minute. Only then did he realized that it was just a black screen.
"This profile picture is quite unique. It matches third brother's profile picture very well."
Gu Nanfeng suddenly realized that not only did their profile pictures match well, the photos were so dark that he could not even see the face with a magnifying glass. Even their Wechat nicknames matched well.
Qin Beiming's Wechat name was "Random", while Ling Mo's Wechat name happened to be "It's Random".
Was it fate, or was it just a coincidence?
Or was someone planning to use this opportunity to get close to Qin Bg?
Thinking of this, Gu Nanfeng's expression instantly turned cold.
One day, he would definitely invite her to meet him. If this girl had the intention to plot against his brother, he would definitely not let her off even if she was as beautiful as a flower.
On the other side, after Ling Mo's investigations were fruitless, she video called her best friend Song Xingwan.
"Xingwan, did you send this box of underwear?"
"How is that possible? Why would I send you underwear for no reason? You don't even have a boyfriend, who are you going to show it to?"
On the other side of the video, Song Xingwan crossed her legs and laid on the sofa leisurely, chatting with Ling Mo.
Speaking of which, they had known each other for 13 years. They weren't biological sisters, but they were even closer than biological sisters.
"If it's not you, who else could it be?"
Ling Mo threw the box in the corner gloomily and lay back down on the bed.
"There must be something wrong with the sender's taste. How could they gift a lace bra like this to a young and beautiful girl? Not only does it look old, it's also rustic. In my opinion, the sender is most likely a bald, sleazy, and big-bellied middle-aged man." Song Xingwan chewed on the apple in her hand, she analyzed it as if it was a matter of fact.
"Sleazy uncle?"
Ling Mo automatically thought of the sleazy face of Director Li of Guanghua Industries at the banquet. Her impression of the sender became a little worse.
Want to see her wearing transparent lace underwear?
Maybe in the next life.
"Mo, how many days do you plan to stay with the Ling family this time?" A hint of worry appeared on Song Xingwan's bright and beautiful face, "You're good at everything, but you're too soft-hearted. The acting skills of the best actress Su have long been perfected. I'm always afraid that you'll be wronged in the Ling family."
"Not this time."
Ling Mo mumbled. Once again, the scene of her miserable death after being splashed with acid flashed past her eyes.
Compared to resentment, it was more the chill of being betrayed by the people around her.
After turning off the video call, she closed her eyes tightly. A deep and magnetic male voice suddenly sounded in her ears, "This girl's clothes are unbuttoned. Let me put them on."
She kept feeling that this voice sounded familiar, but when she thought about it carefully, her mind went blank again.
Who that person was was actually not important.
However, if she was fated to meet him, she still wanted to properly thank that stranger whom she had never met before for taking care of her last bit of dignity before she died...
