The Commander's Useless Wife Is Actually a Hidden Boss!-Chapter 111: Ill-intentioned Visitor
Chapter 111: Chapter 111: Ill-intentioned Visitor
Xia Youyou and her group chased away the other students around Xu Jinglan and her two friends, then sat down directly, immediately enclosing the three in the middle.
The overbearing behavior drew frowns from the surrounding classmates.
Lin Fu was also quite surprised. How had Xia Youyou changed so suddenly? She was revealing her true colors in public without any regard for her identity and face as the Military Goddess.
Was this throwing caution to the wind?
He Shu had been scared to the point of not daring to eat, fearfully looking at the people before her.
Ye Fei was seething with anger, about to lose control, but was stepped on under the table by Xu Jinglan and managed to contain her temper.
Her family was just a minor noble from the local area without even a fief, incomparable to these Great Nobles who easily owned an entire planet as their territory.
She didn’t mind offending others, but she couldn’t disregard the life and death of her family because of her own actions.
Damn it!
Ye Fei clenched her fists tightly.
Xu Jinglan, on the other hand, was the calmest one, continuing to dine methodically without even raising an eyebrow.
"Hmph! You really did come out. When I heard the news, I couldn’t believe it. I really didn’t expect it!" Xia Youyou sat in front of Xu Jinglan and said in a low, mocking voice, "I really didn’t expect that you had such ability to actually find Colonel Fu Tian to vouch for you."
Xu Jinglan suddenly looked up, and the others who heard also turned to look all at once.
The surname Fu was very special, so special that upon hearing it, one would immediately think of one of the most ancient and powerful families in the Empire, which owned the entire Immolus Star System as its territory.
The Fu Family.
Moreover, everyone on Capital Star, especially those in the military, had heard of the great name of Fu Tian.
Not to mention, everyone in Elbert, from top to bottom, had a love-hate relationship with the people of the Fu Family.
"Maybe everyone doesn’t know yet? This Xu Jinglan is no ordinary person, she has quite the backing," Xia Youyou said sarcastically with a mocking tone, "With such support, no wonder she is arrogant and dares to offend the Nobles."
This sentence had different meanings to different listeners.
Those from noble origins would feel upset, looking at Xu Jinglan with somewhat malicious eyes.
Those from a civilian background wouldn’t feel any more favorable either.
Because Xu Jinglan had already clung to the thighs of other Nobles, the nature of the conflict between her and Xia Youyou had changed; it might be a dispute between two Nobles.
Naturally, they did not wish to get involved.
And this was exactly what Xia Youyou wanted.
Xu Jinglan looked sharply at He Shu, "What on earth is going on?" She was very clear about He Shu’s connections; there was no way she could reach Fu Tian.
He Shu shrank back, guiltily not daring to meet Xu Jinglan’s gaze.
"Is it you?"
Xia Youyou immediately looked towards He Shu.
"No, it’s not me," He Shu said hurriedly, waving her hands like a startled bunny.
Ye Fei glared at her furiously, "What do you mean? What’s going on?"
"Don’t be impulsive."
Xu Jinglan shook her head at Ye Fei, her gaze at He Shu filled with a hint of disappointment.
She had already figured out what was really going on.
The person who had truly helped her must be Lin Fu.
This also fit with the impression Lin Fu had given her; she had long noticed that Lin Fu’s background wasn’t as simple as it appeared on the surface. But as roommates, they shouldn’t pry into each other’s affairs without good reason.
"If you have something to say, just say it," Xu Jinglan said coldly.
"You’re very pleased with yourselves, very impressive," Xia Youyou said, her anger turning into a mocking laugh, clearly boding ill intent.
"I originally just wanted you to pay the appropriate price, but who knew you would cling to powerful backers. However, if you think you can avoid paying the price just like that, you are sorely mistaken."
