Chapter 650: 652, Jin, go make tea for Xianxian. (First update)

Mu Xianxian stepped inside, one deliberate step at a time.

Clearly, she was a frequent guest at the Chu Family; all the servants within the courtyard greeted her respectfully with a "Good day, Miss Mu."

Even from outside the courtyard, laughter could be heard emanating from inside the house.

It was a crisp sound, like that of silver bells, refreshing to the soul.

A venomous look flashed across Mu Xianxian’s eyes. The little wretch sure had a knack for seducing men!

Laughing like that, the floozy!

Shameless!

But soon, Mu Xianxian regained her gentle and kind demeanor.

"Aunt Yuan, I’m here," Mu Xianxian said with a beaming smile as she walked into the hall, affectionately holding onto Zhao Yan’s arm—a complete contrast from her ferocious expression just moments before.

Mu Xianxian was no fool; she knew how to play to people’s preferences. To get close to Mo Zhixuan and claim the position of Ninth Madame, it wasn’t enough to merely cozy up to the old madam; Zhao Yan needed to be sweet-talked too.

Compared to the old madam, Zhao Yan, with her mental instability and senile dementia, was much easier to deceive.

Zhao Yan was also more prone to trust others.

Moreover, making Zhao Yan happy would earn Mu Xianxian Mo Zhixuan’s favor, furthering her smooth ascent to the position of Ninth Madame.

"Jin, go make some tea for Xianxian," Zhao Yan said to another young woman standing beside her.

The young woman appeared to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in white with black pants, slender and fair-skinned with delicate features—a rare beauty indeed. Most importantly, she bore a semblance to Chu Jin.

At the very least, she resembled her by a third.

Half a year earlier, Zhao Yan had been mentally unstable due to excessive thoughts of her daughter, sneaking out of the Chu house late at night; coincidentally, it was a night of torrential rain. Not far from home, Zhao Yan fainted in the downpour.

Fortunately, she met a kind-hearted person.

This kind-hearted individual took Zhao Yan home, took great care of her, and in less than two days, Zhao Yan had recovered.

This benevolent person was the one who resembled Chu Jin.

Her name was Luo Yu.

Because she looked somewhat like Chu Jin, Zhao Yan mistook her for Chu Jin and called her "Jin" day and night. She even brought Luo Yu back to the Chu Family, allowing her to become the young miss of the family.

Luo Yu was kind-hearted and didn’t want to see Zhao Yan get hurt again, so she followed Zhao Yan back to the Chu Family, acknowledged her as her mother, and even let Zhao Yan call her Jin.

In her heart, Luo Yu also considered herself the very Chu Jin she’d never met before.

She believed this was an opportunity given by the heavens.

Since Chu Jin was dead, and since she resembled her, Luo Yu could rightfully own everything Chu Jin did.

From now on, she would be the young miss of the Chu Family.

And no one could shake her position.

Of course, her ambitions weren’t simply confined to being the Chu Family’s young miss.

It’s said that Chu Jin was previously engaged to that man after all.

"Alright, Mom, I’ll do it right now. Just a moment, Xianxian," Luo Yu said slowly with a smile, turning to make tea. The word "Mom" sounded utterly natural from her.

As if Zhao Yan was indeed her real mother.

Mu Xianxian watched Luo Yu with a scoff in her eyes.

This Luo Yu was truly shameless; she merely resembled Chu Jin a bit and already thought she could replace her?

She should take a good look at herself! She couldn’t even match a single finger of Chu Jin!

The only person who could be mentioned in the same breath as Chu Jin was herself, the number one beauty of the Superpower World. Luo Yu really was overestimating herself!

Once she became the Ninth Madame,

the first one she would deal with was this Luo Yu!

Although she loathed Luo Yu deep down, Mu Xianxian’s face was still full of smiles.

"Aunt Yuan, I haven’t seen you for some days, and I’ve really missed you. When do you have time to come over to our place for a visit?" Mu Xianxian helped Zhao Yan sit down, smiling tenderly.

Looking like this, Mu Xianxian did resemble the Superpower World’s number one beauty to some extent.

In fact, Mu Xianxian was very attractive, even more so than Luo Yu, with distinctive features—it was no wonder she occupied the position of top beauty.

Zhao Yan affectionately patted Mu Xianxian’s hand, smiling lovingly, "Jin has been busy these days. Once Jin is free, we will definitely come to visit. Hopefully, you won’t find us troublesome then."

Upon hearing this, Luo Yu, who was making tea on the side, couldn’t help but reveal a smug smile.

No matter how nice Mu Xianxian was, in Zhao Yan’s heart, her own daughter was always the best.

In Zhao Yan’s eyes, Mu Xianxian would always be an outsider.

Even though Mu Xianxian invited Zhao Yan to visit the Mu Family, Zhao Yan’s thoughts were still fixed on her.

Actually,

Mu Xianxian didn’t harbor any bad intentions towards Zhao Yan, at most she just wanted to use Zhao Yan to get Mo Zhixuan to notice her.

Therefore, she made Zhao Yan very happy. If Luo Yu had not interfered, the person accompanying Zhao Yan right now would have been herself. What business would Luo Yu have then?

Hearing this, Mu Xianxian was very angry.

Luo Yu, Luo Yu, always Luo Yu!

She had been so good to Zhao Yan, thinking of giving her the best things first, yet Zhao Yan could only see Luo Yu!

All Luo Yu could do was parade around with that inferior face and call "mom." What else could she do?

Why couldn’t Zhao Yan understand that even if Luo Yu looked a bit like Chu Jin, at the end of the day, she was not the real Chu Jin!

Chu Jin was so beautiful.

She couldn’t even compare to the tip of Chu Jin’s little finger!

Lost in thought, Luo Yu brought over the brewed tea with a smile, gently cautioning Mu Xianxian, "Xianxian, have some tea, but be careful, it’s hot."

In front of Zhao Yan, Luo Yu always appeared very understanding.

"Thank you." Mu Xianxian picked up the tea, her smile not quite reaching her eyes.

As for Luo Yu, this little white lotus, Mu Xianxian could never bring herself to like her.

She wished this little white lotus would just drop dead!

So, she was not afraid of offending this little white lotus.

"You’re welcome," Luo Yu also smiled, a subtle glint in her eyes as she said nonchalantly, "The guest is the guest, and it is my duty to serve."

Her words were extremely artful.

In the Chu Family, Luo Yu had never felt like an outsider.

The guest is the guest?

Mu Xianxian curved her lips into a smile.

This Luo Yu actually had the nerve to say such a thing—she really considered herself a part of the Chu Family, didn’t she?

Nothing but a replacement.

Trash! Disgusting!

A dark light flashed in Mu Xianxian’s eyes before she continued.

"Luo Yu, you’re right, a guest deserves hospitality. You’ve been in the Superpower World for quite some time now, haven’t you? You haven’t had a chance to explore yet. When you’re free one day, I’ll definitely take you around to play the gracious host."

This statement struck a chord.

Moreover, Mu Xianxian did not follow Zhao Yan’s cue to call Luo Yu "Jin," but used her real name instead.

Mu Xianxian was also reminding Luo Yu.

Luo Yu would always be Luo Yu, and Jin would always be Chu Jin; no one could replace her!

Did a substitute really think she could turn the tables and become the Chu Family’s young lady?

Dream on!

Luo Yu caught the meaning behind the words. Her expression changed slightly, but the smile on her lips remained as she spoke softly, "Xianxian, you’re too kind. If I find the time, my mom and I will definitely trouble you."

Luo Yu also deliberately emphasized the words "my mom."

She was also reminding Mu Xianxian that no matter what Mu Xianxian did, it was all in vain. She could never replace Luo Yu’s place in Zhao Yan’s heart.

What was Mu Xianxian compared to that?

As long as Zhao Yan and the Chu Family acknowledged her, that was enough.

After all, she was Zhao Yan’s only daughter.

This was a fact Mu Xianxian couldn’t change.

Unless, Chu Jin came back to life.

But that was just a dead person, not a threat to her.

Mu Xianxian also picked up on the subtext in Luo Yu’s words and said nonchalantly, "Then it’s settled. When the time comes, you can’t say you’re too busy."

"Of course," Luo Yu also laughed softly, her tone gentle, "that would just be too much trouble for you."

"Not at all," Mu Xianxian smiled very clearly, deftly playing along, "you’re not here often in the Superpower World, and guests deserve hospitality after all."

Upon hearing this, Luo Yu’s expression changed instantly.

Mu Xianxian, on the other hand, smiled even more smugly.

Regaining ground in front of Luo Yu felt incredibly good!

Extremely good!

Luo Yu’s expression eased slightly, and her lips curled into a smile. In the midst of Mu Xianxian’s proud gaze, she suddenly stood up, looked towards the staircase, and greeted with a smile and tender tone, "Brother Mo, Xiu."

Her eyes were tender and affectionate as she gazed at the staircase.

To be precise.

She was looking at Mo Zhixuan.

There are some people in this world who can make you fall for them without hesitation at first sight.

Clearly, Mo Zhixuan was such a person.

Mo Zhixuan seemed to be discussing something with Chu Xiu. Upon hearing Luo Yu, he simply nodded at her. His chiseled face didn’t carry much expression as he then continued to converse with Chu Xiu, lowering his gaze.

His casual move radiated a powerful aura that commanded respect.

Such a man, born to dominate.

Watching Mo Zhixuan approaching closer and closer, Luo Yu’s heart began to beat faster and faster.

The thought that this man would one day belong completely to her made Luo Yu’s heart race; it felt like it was about to leap out of her chest.

Chu Jin was Mo Zhixuan’s fiancée, which naturally made him her fiancé as well.

"Sister Luo Yu," Chu Xiu approached Luo Yu and greeted her politely.

Since Luo Yu had saved Zhao Yan’s life and could stabilise her condition, Chu Xiu had a good impression of her.

Upon hearing this.

A touch of gloom quickly flashed across Luo Yu’s face. This Chu Xiu!

All the times she had been so tender and kind to him, treating him like a dear brother.

But what about him? He still called her "Sister Luo Yu." Chu Xiu never really saw her as a sister!

Ungrateful creature!

However, in this household, apart from Zhao Yan who would call her "Jin," others directly used her name, and the servants addressed her as "Miss Luo."

This was by Mo Zhixuan’s instruction.

After all, in Mo Zhixuan’s heart, no one could replace Chu Jin.

Even if Luo Yu looked a lot like Chu Jin, she was still only Luo Yu.

Apart from Zhao Yan who could not tell the difference, no one else considered Luo Yu a substitute.

"Miss Mu has come too." Chu Xiu’s gaze fell on Mu Xianxian and he greeted her proactively.

"Xiu, Brother Mo," Mu Xianxian spoke in a sweet tone.

"Mom, you rest well and take care of yourself, I need to leave now," Mo Zhixuan said as if he had not seen Mu Xianxian, going straight to Zhao Yan’s side and speaking in a warm tone, the only time his voice wasn’t so cold was in front of Zhao Yan.

Seeing this.

The smile deepened in Luo Yu’s eyes.

Mu Xianxian was just like a jumping clown, self-proclaimed as the top beauty of the Superpower World, looking down on everything beneath her, but in front of Mo Zhixuan, she was nothing.

Mo Zhixuan would not even give her a second glance.

"Zhixuan, are you leaving already?" Zhao Yan stood up looking at Mo Zhixuan. "Won’t you stay and have a meal with me and Jin?"

Zhao Yan always remembered Mo Zhixuan as her son-in-law, so she often tried to put Mo Zhixuan and Luo Yu together.

Because, in Zhao Yan’s subconscious.

Luo Yu was Chu Jin.

And Chu Jin had never left her.

"Mom, Brother Mo has things to do. Don’t keep him here, let him go busy himself," Luo Yu took Zhao Yan’s arm, sounding very considerate.

Anyway, Chu Jin was already dead.

Sooner or later, she could completely replace Chu Jin. As for winning Mo Zhixuan’s favor, it couldn’t be rushed; it had to be done gradually.

"Alright," Zhao Yan sighed, then said, "Zhixuan, just be careful on the road, and remember to come see me and Jin when you have time."

"Don’t worry, I’ll definitely come to see you when I have the time," Mo Zhixuan nodded slightly, deliberately ignoring the "Jin."

He did not take another look at Luo Yu.

Luo Yu lowered her eyelids, her eyes’ expression somewhat unclear. What exactly did Mo Zhixuan mean?

She clearly looked so much like Chu Jin. How could he continue to ignore her?

It had already been half a year, yet Mo Zhixuan still showed no signs of interest in her.
