Chapter 567: 128: Bad news!_1

Zhang Xianxian was employing a strategic retreat.

To deal with someone like Lin Wu, one had to progress step by step.

Besides,

after what had happened in the restroom, Zhang Xianxian knew very well the strength of Lin Wu.

Not to mention fighting one-on-one, even if they called for two more helpers, they probably wouldn’t be a match for Lin Wu.

Therefore,

they needed to outsmart her.

To make Lin Wu willingly walk into the trap.

Lin Wu had gone to great lengths to do so much, for only one reason.

That was to return to the Zhang Family and live the life of a wealthy young lady.

As long as she used this as bait,

Lin Wu would surely fall for it.

After all,

men die in pursuit of wealth, as birds die in pursuit of food.

With this thought, Zhang Xianxian narrowed her eyes.

Upon seeing Zhang Xianxian, Lin Wu showed a very surprised expression, "Why is it you?!"

Zhang Xianxian was quite pleased with Lin Wu’s expression, and continued, "Sister, I really realize my mistake now, please forgive me, okay?"

Lin Wu didn’t speak, she just looked at Zhang Xianxian, her clear eyes revealing no particular emotion.

Zhang Xianxian narrowed her eyes.

Though this little wild breed didn’t have a good birth, she did have an exceedingly beautiful face.

Though Zhang Xianxian hated to admit it,

Lin Wu’s face could indeed be described as stunningly beautiful.

Scouring the entire Qing City, it would probably be impossible to find a second face that could rival Lin Wu’s.

Not to mention Qing City,

perhaps the entire Hua Country couldn’t find a second Lin Wu.

Zhang Xianxian suppressed the jealousy in her heart without a trace, raised her head to look at Lin Wu, and continued, "Sister, I’ve thought about it seriously for a long time and decided to speak with Grandma and Dad in person. We should bring you into our family to live, giving you the status of Young Miss Zhang. After all, you are older than me; what I did was wrong, occupying the status of Young Miss Zhang for so many years. From now on, I will give this status back to you."

By the end of her speech, Zhang Xianxian’s eyes were red, and her emotional appeal was touching.

Seeing this, Lin Wu appeared somewhat shaken, "Really, really?"

Upon finishing her sentence, Lin Wu added, "You’re not lying to me? You really will treat me as a true sister?"

Somehow,

the System always felt that something was off with this behavior from Lin Wu.

Lin Wu was not known for this kind of personality.

But now, she seemed to be undergoing a forced reduction in intelligence.

Something is not right!

This is very suspicious.

And more so, given how clever a person Lin Wu was, how could she possibly be so easily deceived by Zhang Xianxian?

Could it be that Lin Wu wouldn’t just call Shen Lijun to verify things?

[Host, I think something’s not right,] the System cautioned: [Lin Wu wouldn’t say or do something like this. Maybe we should halt our plan. It’s still not too late to stop!]

Halt the plan?

How could that be possible!

Zhang Xianxian was already prepared to strike; she had to make a move.

Besides,

she had never considered Lin Wu to be threatening.

Upon hearing the System’s warning, she snorted coldly, "It’s you who’s overestimating Lin Wu. Without the System, she’s nothing!"

Clearly,

Lin Wu’s previous accomplishments must have been due to the System.

Later, when the System realized Lin Wu was just a straw bag, it abandoned her!

A country bumpkin, once deprived of the System, can only be a country bumpkin.

As she finished speaking, Zhang Xianxian’s eyes slightly narrowed. She communicated with the System using her thoughts, "Don’t you think the current Lin Wu is very much like how she was half a year ago?"

That night, she knelt in front of all the guests, begging her to grant her a status. Wasn’t Lin Wu just like she is now?

The System was taken aback, seeming to recall the night when Lin Wu came to acknowledge her kin. It didn’t say anything more.

Zhang Xianxian turned to look at Lin Wu, her face full of sincerity, "Of course it’s true! After all, we are blood sisters, thick as thieves. My dear sister, everything was my fault in the past. Can you forgive me?"

Hearing this, Lin Wu’s face showed a hesitant expression, looking troubled as though she was contemplating whether or not to forgive Zhang Xianxian.

Seeing her like this, Zhang Xianxian immediately picked up a glass of wine from the table, "To show my sincerity, I’ll drink this glass first as self-punishment, hoping that sister can forgive my ignorant actions of the past."

With that, Zhang Xianxian downed the glass of wine in one gulp.

Full of sincerity.

After drinking the wine, Zhang Xianxian took out a gold card from her designer bag, "Oh, sister, this is a greeting gift I specifically brought for you. Inside, there’s a total of thirty million."

Thirty million!

Upon hearing these words, Lin Wu’s eyes lit up, and she immediately took the card, "Really, there’s thirty million in here?"

Looking at Lin Wu’s unsophisticated reaction,

it was obvious,

a village girl is still a village girl.

No matter if she’s covered in luxurious garments, transforming from a village girl to a wealthy young lady, she still doesn’t resemble a prince even in an emperor’s robe.
