Rebirth as the Richest Woman in the World
Chapter 142 Palm! (First Update)

Chapter 142: 142 Palm! (First Update)

The young woman looked at Mo Zhixuan with great embarrassment.

Mr. Mo hardly ever returned to the villa for months, and she hadn’t expected to encounter him this time.

Was this the so-called fate?

The young woman’s heart was pounding with excitement.

Mr. Mo was the most dignified and charming man she had ever seen in her life.

He was different from her peers she’d seen at school and those fresh-faced celebrities on TV.

The aura of nobility about him was something innate, radiating from the inside out, effortlessly graceful.

Irreplaceable and unsurpassable.

Although she didn’t know what Mr. Mo’s real occupation was, residing in such a luxurious villa at his young age meant his background was definitely extraordinary!

And most importantly, from her observations, Mr. Mo appeared to be single.

If he was single, it meant she still had a chance.

After all, she was a star student in the French Department of C University!

Mo Zhixuan completely ignored the girl and looked at Chu Jin, "What happened just now?"

He had heard the commotion from afar.

Just as Chu Jin was about to speak, the young woman interrupted her boldly, saying to Mo Zhixuan, "Mr. Mo, the maid you hired has no manners at all! I just noticed that the floor was dirty and asked her to clean it up, and not only did she ignore me, she even gave me an attitude! Such people should not be allowed to stay..."

Aunt Zhang, who was in the kitchen, heard the noise and came out.

Mo Zhixuan’s expression grew increasingly stern, but softened slightly upon seeing Aunt Zhang emerge.

Aunt Zhang wiped her hands on her apron and, seeing the newcomer, said with surprise, "Lingxiang, when did you get here?"

This young woman was Aunt Zhang’s biological daughter, Zuo Lingxiang.

Since she studied in Capital City, she often visited the villa to see her mother, and sometimes she would stay with Aunt Zhang in the servants’ quarters for a few days.

Aunt Zhang had previously sought Mo Zhixuan’s permission for this.

Seeing the deep bond between mother and daughter, and considering Aunt Zhang had worked there many years, always behaving honestly and dutifully,

he had agreed to her request.

He had allowed Zuo Lingxiang to visit on holidays to spend time with Aunt Zhang,

and had given her a card to enter and exit the villa smoothly.

Zuo Lingxiang felt a sense of superiority about having easy access to the affluent areas of Capital City.

Her roommates and classmates were deeply envious of her.

She enjoyed this feeling immensely.

Of course, she claimed to others that she was just staying with relatives for a few days.

If her classmates knew she had a mother who worked as a maid, how could she save face?

"Mom," Zuo Lingxiang went to Aunt Zhang’s side and hugged her affectionately, voicing her dissatisfaction, "Is the new maid someone you hired? She’s so rude..."

Aunt Zhang was somewhat puzzled, "What new maid...?"

Zuo Lingxiang wanted to say more, but she saw Mo Zhixuan’s face turn suddenly colder, and he said in a deep voice, "Who did you say was a maid?"

Aunt Zhang was also confused, nervously asking Zuo Lingxiang, "Yeah, Lingxiang, who are you talking about?"

In this villa, there were only three helpers; one was off-duty, and another had taken leave for personal reasons.

So, in this villa, there wouldn’t be another servant besides her.

And from the looks of it, Mr. Mo seemed to be angry.

Although Mr. Mo was usually a bit cold, he had never been angry with their servants before.

Seeing Mo Zhixuan like this,

Zuo Lingxiang suddenly felt less confident, swallowed hard, and pointed at Chu Jin saying, "Isn’t it her, that disrespectful thing..."

Aunt Zhang’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly covered Zuo Lingxiang’s mouth, scolding sharply, "What nonsense are you spouting! She’s a guest brought by the master!"

A guest!

Zuo Lingxiang was instantly stunned as Aunt Zhang’s words hit her like a bucket of ice water, causing her breath to catch.

Her whole being felt chilly.

She was filled with regret, embarrassment, and a mix of emotions.

After speaking, Aunt Zhang kept bowing repeatedly, apologizing to Mo Zhixuan, "Mr. Mo, I’m sorry, Lingxiang is young and doesn’t know better, I hope you won’t hold it against her, please don’t stoop to her level..."

Aunt Zhang hadn’t expected that, just while frying food, Zuo Lingxiang could bring such trouble upon herself.

She had been working here for a long time, and the salary and benefits were very good; she didn’t want to lose her job because of Zuo Lingxiang’s actions.

Mo Zhixuan’s face was somber, his already cool features now seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice, daunting to any onlooker.

This was it, she thought. As soon as the master got angry, it would undoubtedly have repercussions on her.

If her daughter had caused the mess, it was up to her to fix it.

’Slap’!

Zuo Lingxiang hadn’t even realized what was happening when she was suddenly struck by a slap that left her dizzy, with ringing in her ears, and a trace of fresh blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.

"Mom... you hit me!?" Zuo Lingxiang clutched her swollen cheek with one hand and pointed at Aunt Zhang with the other, questioning incredulously.

She was already feeling terrible, and now her own mother had hit her!

She had always been clever and outstanding, and her mother had never even spoken harshly to her, and now, she had struck her!

After the slap, Aunt Zhang’s hand trembled too, but she remained clear on priorities and scolded sternly, "Wicked girl! It serves you right to be hit. Who told you to look down on people? How dare you disrespect the guest Mr. Mo brought back! Apologize to the young lady this instant!"
