On the high platform, seeing Ling Mo Xie win a match so effortlessly, Ling Jiu Yin felt a surge of frustration. Even though he had hired an assassin to kill him, he couldn't help but feel suffocated. The veins on the back of his hand bulged, and he wished he could personally go up and chop off Ling Mo Xie's head! But he knew he couldn't do that; otherwise, the entire Ling family in Hongfeng Town would have to pay for it!
No matter how displeased he felt inside, Ling Jiu Yin forced a smile and announced, "Now, the top five of the second group have emerged! They are... Ling Zhi Zhong, Ling Yu Ting, Ling Tian Xing, Ling Kui, and Ling Mo Xie!"
"Haha!" Ling Mo Xie laughed heartily as he stepped forward, picked up a card, and turned it over to find that he had a bye! He waved it in front of Ling Jiu Yin and said, "Hey! Nephew? What's going on? Didn't you arrange something for your uncle? Why do I have a bye? You should have set me up with a strong opponent! Like that Ling Tian Long or someone. Right?"
Ling Jiu Yin was taken aback. How did he know? Could it be that he also knew about the assassination attempt against him?
Seeing Ling Jiu Yin's stunned expression and evasive eyes, Ling Mo Xie's gaze sharpened. No way! Could it be that Ling Jiu Yin is plotting something against me? Hmph! Bring it on! I'm ready!
Holding the card, Ling Mo Xie returned to Zhou Xin Yi's side and chatted casually while watching the matches on stage.
Ling Tian Xing's opponent was Ling Zhi Zhong, and Ling Yu Ting's opponent was Ling Kui! With one arm crossed over his chest and his chin resting on his hand, Ling Mo Xie looked at Ling Yu Ting and said, "This girl isn't bad! She actually made it into the top five at just sixteen years old! Not bad at all! Hehe! And she's quite good-looking too!"
"Hmph! Do you like her?" Zhou Xin Yi snorted coldly, clearly displeased. Ling Mo Xie found Zhou Xin Yi's pouty expression quite adorable. With a playful glint in his eyes, he dramatically placed a hand over his heart and exclaimed, "Oh no! How did you know? I really like her! When I think of her, my heart races! It's about to jump out of my chest! Feel for yourself!"
"Clack clack!" Zhou Xin Yi ground her teeth together angrily and said, "If you like her, then go tell her! Go over there! Don't stand next to me; what if she misunderstands?"
Ling Mo Xie couldn't help but laugh internally. This little girl is just too innocent! Does she really take everything I say at face value? She can't see through such an exaggerated act? So he decided to continue teasing her.
Feigning a sorrowful expression, he said, "I don't know if she likes me or not. I'm too scared to tell her! It's better to just quietly like her!"
"Snap snap!" Zhou Xin Yi pressed down on her knuckles and bit her lip. Just as Ling Mo Xie was enjoying her cute little expressions and wondering what she would do next, Zhou Xin Yi suddenly raised her head and shouted towards the arena, "Hey! Ling Yu Ting! Ling Mo Xie likes you! Ugh!"
Ling Mo Xie quickly covered her mouth. Oh heavens! Little girl, do you have to be so serious? I was just teasing you!
As soon as those words were spoken, Ling Yuting slipped on the Arena and almost fell. She shot a fierce glare at Ling Mo Xie and sarcastically said, "Someone like you, a toad, thinks you can eat swan meat?"
The subordinates attacked even more fiercely, seemingly treating Ling Kui as Ling Mo Xie would.
The other Ling family members watching were in an uproar, their eyes filled with anger as they looked at Ling Mo Xie. How could you, having Zhou Xinyi already, still provoke Ling Yuting? You're eating meat and not even giving us a sip of soup! Is this really okay?
On the high platform, Ling Jiuyin noticed this turn of events and his eyes flickered; he seemed to have come up with some bad idea!
Ling Mo Xie felt bitter inside. I just wanted to tease that little girl Zhou Xinyi! Who knew she would be so serious? And calling me a toad wanting to eat swan meat? You're the damn swan! I'm a human!
Ling Kui, my brother! I'm sorry! I really didn't mean it! Ling Mo Xie watched as Ling Yuting relentlessly attacked in the Arena, each move vicious, while Ling Kui struggled to defend himself. He couldn't help but click his tongue; a shrew like her? Even if you gave her to me, I wouldn't want her! And she dares to say that I'm a toad wanting to eat swan meat?
Let’s take a step back; even if I am a toad, I’m still a prince charming. Who the hell would look at you?
"Ah!" Ling Mo Xie suddenly removed his hand from covering Zhou Xinyi's mouth, shaking it repeatedly while somewhat angrily saying, "Are you a dog?" Damn it! Being called a toad by that shrew made me furious enough, and now you, the troublemaker, dare to bite me?
"Woo woo, what do you want? Don't you like her? I've already told her!" Zhou Xinyi said with some sobs, her sparkling tears welling up in her eyes but she held back from letting them fall.
"Xin, Xinyi!" Ling Mo Xie felt somewhat at a loss. Did he go too far?
"Hmph!" Zhou Xinyi glared at Ling Mo Xie and turned to run away. Ling Mo Xie was stunned for a moment before quickly chasing after her.
When he found Zhou Xinyi, she was in a garden, trampling on the blooming flowers. Ling Mo Xie walked over and hugged her from behind. "Alright! Don't be angry anymore! I was just joking! Who knew you'd take it so seriously?"
"Hmph," warm tears fell onto Ling Mo Xie's hand, startling him. He turned Zhou Xinyi around to face him. Zhou Xinyi lowered her head, continuously sobbing.
"Stop crying! It's making me anxious!" Ling Mo Xie rubbed his temples, realizing he was truly suffering from his own actions. There's a saying that goes, 'If you don't do anything reckless, you won't face dire consequences!' He fully understood the meaning of that now.
"You, go find your beloved Ling Yuting!" Zhou Xinyi pushed Ling Mo Xie away, sobbing as she spoke, her hands clenched tightly with blood dripping down.
Ling Mo Xie felt a headache coming on. Fortunately, he had experienced love in his past life! He stepped forward again and embraced Zhou Xinyi, leaning down to kiss her.
"Mm!" Zhou Xinyi's eyes widened in surprise, momentarily unable to react.
After a long while, Ling Mo Xie released Zhou Xinyi and wiped away the glistening tears on her face. "Alright! Stop crying! It hurts my heart!"
Zhou Xinyi lowered her head and murmured, "Ling Yuting..."
"Damn it!" Ling Mo Xie punched a nearby pillar of a pavilion. "Can you stop mentioning that shrew? Didn't you hear she's a swan? Why would I want to be compared to that?"
"Pfft!" Zhou Xinyi couldn't help but laugh at Ling Mo Xie's words. "What are you saying? How can you talk about others like that?"
Ling Mo Xie shrugged helplessly. "She said it herself! Didn't you hear her?!" After saying that, he pinched Zhou Xinyi's cheek playfully. "I was just joking with you! Who knew you'd actually take it seriously? You little girl! You're so earnest!"
"When I was worthless and called a waste by everyone, when I was bullied at will, who was always by my side? It was you, not her!" Ling Mo Xie looked into Zhou Xinyi's eyes and said earnestly.
