Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again!-Chapter 337 She is the Golden Net Charm Fox
Chapter 337: Chapter 337 She is the Golden Net Charm Fox
She handed a handwritten list to Yun Yue.
Yun Yue casually glanced at it, uninterested, and tossed it onto the table. She propped up her legs and leaned back on the sofa, her voice cool and indifferent, "Has the Mo family arrived?"
The invited list didn’t include the Mo family, so they must have come on their own.
Mo Fan, with a cold expression and no particular emotion, hummed in response and said mockingly, "Quite the harmonious family."
Yun Yue’s eyes narrowed slightly, and she tapped her fingers a few times, "Mo Lingwei participated in this Golden Net and Black Alliance assessment, what do you think?"
Mo Fan’s demeanor flickered slightly; with a flirtatious smile, he began, "What can I think? If she can get in, that’s her own ability. If she ends up in my hands, that’s her fate. I wouldn’t ruin Golden Net’s reputation over personal grievances."
That issue had long since passed, and to her, the Mo family was just a bunch of strangers.
Yun Yue’s eyebrows lifted, and she chuckled, "Not bad, you’re someone I took a liking to."
"I’ve already looked at the results of the first round of the assessment; Mo Lingwei is in first place. She shouldn’t have any trouble with the subsequent rounds either. As for who she will be assigned to, we’ll have to wait and see."
Mo Fan crossed his long and slender legs, his physique full and sexy, "No matter how it’s assigned, I’ll be her superior."
She was actually curious to see the look on Mo Lingwei’s face when she found out about her identity.
On Xiao Chen’s side, they entered the room only to discover several people already inside.
Everyone turned to look at them.
All familiar faces.
"Just talking about Young Master Xiao, and here he comes," Gu Cong said in a refined and easygoing manner, eyeing the tall and stern man at the doorway.
The group proceeded to the vacant seats and settled down.
Lin Xuanze saw Gu Yue and paused, "Gu Yue! What are you doing here?"
His gaze shifted between Gu Cong and Gu Yue.
After a few seconds, he pursed his lips, somewhat in disbelief, "...You’re not the second young master of the Gu family, are you?"
Gu Yue nodded lightly, his tone indifferent, "I am, but what brings you here?"
"Oh." Lin Xuanze responded without much expression, his tone fairly neutral, "Yun Yue brought me along."
To broaden my horizons.
Indeed, to broaden his horizons; they were all bigwigs.
Even Gu Yue, who had always competed with him for first place back in high school, turned out to be the second young master of the Gu family; he was the lowest in status in the whole room.
But putting on a show of face was still possible; he couldn’t let Gu Yue look down on him.
"Where is she? I heard she’s become Grandpa Jiang’s apprentice?" Gu Yue was quite curious.
He regretted not attending the last apprenticeship banquet; it was said that half the bigwigs of Beijing were there.
"I’m right here."
A lazy voice came from the entrance. The girl was wearing a duckbill cap, obscuring most of her face, her tender and pale skin just visible under the brim, with a smirk on her lips and a carefree, somewhat cynical gait.
Following her was Mo Fan.
She swept her eyes over everyone present, and her disdainful expression softened a bit, "Elder Ji, Elder He, Young Master Gu."
Ji Xian and He Chong nodded slightly, with He Chong glancing subtly at Ji Xian next to him.
He had the patience to wait.
Gu Cong smiled, "We owe it to Golden Net for bringing together the Four Major Families this time."
The room seemed harmonious, yet undercurrents swirled in the air, permeated with a solemn and strict atmosphere. Lin Xuanze stood trembling, not daring to breathe a word, only relaxing a bit when he edged closer to Yun Yue.
He glanced over, and the young girl was sipping tea with an easy grace, managing to chat casually with these bigwigs.
These were people from the Four Major Families; she was so bold?
"Young Master Gu is really good at gilding the Golden Net," Mo Fan said with a hooked lip as he looked at them. "But since everyone is willing to give Golden Net some face, Charming Fox will first thank everyone on behalf of my boss."
Hearing that she was actually Charming Fox, everyone looked at her in astonishment, their expressions shocked.
Elder He pondered for a few seconds, somewhat surprised, and asked, "Are you Mo Fan, the eldest daughter of the Mo Family?"
Mo Fan’s expression became contained. "Elder He has good eyesight. I didn’t expect you to recognize me after so many years."
"However, I’m not the Mo Family’s eldest daughter now; I am the Golden Net’s Charming Fox."
Elder He nodded slightly. He had heard a bit about the Mo Family’s eldest daughter being expelled from the family. Mo Fan was exceptionally talented back then, a rare talent in Beijing, her reputation even surpassing that of Ji Ling and Song Jia’er. It was a pity that, for some unknown reason, she suddenly disappeared without trace. He had not expected to meet her again as the elder of the Golden Net’s Charming Fox.
Mo Huai Zhang would probably be turning green with regret if he knew.
Feng Ye’s expression stiffened.
She’s a daughter of the Mo Family?
Isn’t she Mo Lingwei’s sister?
He said he had felt some familiarity the first time he saw her, as if he had seen her somewhere before. Back then, his father had even tried to arrange a marriage between him and the Mo Family’s eldest daughter, but before he could object, she had opposed it first, causing a fight with the Mo Family that led to her being driven out.
But the familiarity in his heart wasn’t that kind of familiarity, but an unexplainable one, especially her silhouette from behind just now.
"Congratulations," Gu Cong said indifferently, uttering two words.
The Mo family members were also here today, weren’t they? He wondered what their expressions would be when they met. He really wanted to see that.
...
There were many people who attended the event today. Some left after dropping off their gifts, while others stayed on.
However, they could only move around on the first floor. The second floor was guarded by dedicated people, and anyone who tried to go up would be stopped.
Mo Lingwei was one of those who were stopped.
Her face looked somewhat unpleasant: "Why can’t I go up? I just saw some people go up."
The two men guarding the staircase looked at her, "I’m sorry, miss, but the guests upstairs are all honored ones, personally received by the Charming Fox elder. Without the elder’s permission, you cannot go up."
Mo Lingwei gnashed her teeth with anger: "I came with the group that just went up; I just went to use the restroom for a moment."
The two men looked straight ahead without glancing at her, and one of them said rigidly, "I’m not blind."
Did they think the Golden Net’s people were fools?
She could come up with such a story.
Mo Lingwei’s face turned red with indignation, and she gave the upstairs one last look, glaring at the two of them, "You two just wait."
Once she got into the Golden Net, she would definitely make them regret it.
The two men looked at her with disdain.
They had seen plenty of people make threats, and not one of them ended up well.
Mo Fan was coming down from upstairs, ready to take some refreshments up when she ran into a group of people from the Mo Family.
"Sister?" Mo Lingwei looked at the person in front of her in astonishment, and seeing the plate in her hand, the corners of her lips curved up with triumph, "What are you doing here?"
Mo Huai Zhang, along with the couple Mo Wanchang behind him, had their expressions change.
Mo Huai Zhang frowned unhappily, looking at her outfit, her heavy makeup, and flamboyant dress, where was the semblance of chastity?
Their eyes all fell on the fruit plate in her hand, full of disdain.
"You pledged solemnly to leave the Mo Family, and now you’ve ended up as this thing?" Mo Huai Zhang’s displeasure and disgust were evident on his face.
Mo Wanchang also looked at her with disdain, "Don’t lose face for the Mo Family by flaunting yourself in public."
The gloom that clung to Mo Lingwei moments ago was swept away as the corners of her lips curved triumphantly, "Grandpa, Dad, how can you say such things about sister? After all, she needs to make a living."
"What living to make – leaving behind the comfort and riches willingly for this, serving others, and who knows how she’s serving," Mo Mu interjected, inciting discord and steering their thoughts in that direction.
