Qin Ya looked at the unruly girl in front of her and suppressed the hint of disdain and unhappiness in her heart. She pulled Mo Zhu’s hand and said kindly, “Xiao Zhu, Ran Ran has been talking about you at home ever since she found out that you are her sister. Ran Ran is obedient and sensible. You will definitely like her, and Ran Ran’s grades are good, you…”

Speaking of Fang Ran, Qin Ya’s face was filled with pride. The reason why Qin Ya could stand firmly in her husband’s family was because she had given birth to a capable daughter. However, when she thought of Mo Zhu’s situation, Qin Ya could not continue.

She recalled the rumors she had heard in Qingyuan Village. In the local school, Mo Zhu had fought a lot. She was ignorant and incompetent, and her personality was withdrawn and eccentric.

A few days ago, Qin Ya appeared in Qingyuan Village and said that she wanted to bring Mo Zhu to school. Mo Zhu did not want to go, but when Grandma saw Qin Ya’s sincere attitude, she also wanted to let Mo Zhu go to a good university. The school in the village was not good, and the environment in the city would be better.

Although Mo Zhu was unruly and rebellious, she could not dissuade her grandmother.

After a while, the car arrived at the Fang family mansion. Qin Ya tidied up her clothes. After being in the Fang family for so many years, she had already trained herself to be a noble lady. She nervously reminded Mo Zhu, “You have to perform well later. Don’t embarrass me.”

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged woman. When she saw Qin Ya, she greeted her as “Madam”. When she saw Mo Zhu behind Qin Ya, her eyes revealed disdain. “This must be Ms. Mo. Please come in. The Matriarch and the rest are already waiting.”

Qin Ya looked at Mo Zhu, who was wearing a baseball cap and a cheap t-shirt and jeans, and felt a little awkward.

Mo Zhu followed behind at an unhurried pace. She held her phone in her hand and would type and reply to messages from time to time. Qin Ya looked at Mo Zhu’s sloppy demeanor and felt a headache coming on. “Don’t interact with your bad friends all the time. You’ll see your younger sister and the rest later. Control yourself.”

Mo Zhu’s hand paused as she stared at the phone with a cold expression. Her hand continued to move and Qin Ya was angry and nervous. If not for Ran Ran, she would not have exposed her stain in front of everyone and let herself be ridiculed by the Fang family.

When Mo Zhu met the Fang family, they were all scrutinizing her, especially Matriarch Fang.

“This must be Mo Zhu. The Huo family is a prestigious family. Even the Fang family is nothing in front of the Huo family. You can enjoy life after you marry into the family.” There was no good intention in her tone.

“That’s right. Although it’ll only be two years and her looks will be ruined, it’s still the Huo family,” the eldest daughter-in-law of the Fang family teased.

A cute and lovable young girl ran over and was about to hug Mo Zhu’s arm when she dodged her.

“This must be elder sister. Thank you for marrying into the Huo Family on behalf of me.”

Fang Ran did not expect Mo Zhu to be so beautiful. There was a hint of jealousy in her eyes, but her tone was extremely sweet and pleasant, seemingly harmless.

As Mo Zhu listened to each of their words, the corners of her mouth curled into a mocking smile. So that’s how it was. These people want me to get married on behalf of Fang Ran, and it was to a seriously ill short-lived ghost who can’t live past two years?

Qin Ya felt a little guilty when she met Mo Zhu’s gaze.

Indeed, it was best not to have any deep fantasies, although Mo Zhu knew from the start that Qin Ya’s motive for picking her up was not pure.

“I’m sorry, I won’t marry him. You can do so if you want, since the conditions are so good.” Mo Zhu raised her head with a perverse expression, matching her arrogant and despotic image the rumors claimed.

The surrounding people looked at Mo Zhu with mocking expressions. “This is not up to you.” When Matriarch Fang heard Mo Zhu’s arrogant words, she glared at Qin Ya.

Qin Ya quickly said, “Xiao Zhu, the Huo family has a big business. If you marry into the family, you won’t have to worry about food and clothing. You won’t have to suffer in the countryside with your grandmother.”

“Since it’s so good, why don’t you let your younger sister marry him?”

Qin Ya panicked when she saw how Mo Zhu dared to talk back to her in front of so many people. “Your younger sister is so outstanding, and she is to take over the family business in the future. How can you let her marry someone who is about to die?”

“Then why must I go?”

“You are not your sister…” Before Qin Ya could finish, Mo Zhu turned around and left.

Qin Ya couldn’t bear the gazes of others on her. She told Matriarch Fang that she was going to persuade Mo Zhu and went after her.

“Can you stop being so willful? This is not your grandmother’s house. This is not a place where you can behave atrociously! Do you know how embarrassing you have made me?” Qin Ya thought of the embarrassment she had just suffered and brought Mo Zhu to her room. She lowered her voice and started shouting.

“If there’s nothing else, I want to rest.” Mo Zhu started a game round.

Seeing her like this, Qin Ya said, “You have to marry him anyway, even if you don’t want to. Otherwise, your grandma will suffer with you.”

She slammed the door and left after saying that.

After Mo Zhu finished a round of her game, she lay on the bed and closed her eyes in exhaustion.

“I’m your daughter too, aren’t I?”

“Forget it, I should have guessed it long ago.”

Not long after, Mo Zhu received a video call, and she picked it up. In the video, a handsome and bright man with a desolate desert in his background was smiling at Mo Zhu.

“Little Bamboo..” The man’s voice carried a cynical tone.

The man’s name was Yun Jing, and he was a medical genius. However, because of this, he was targeted by some shady forces. A few years ago, when he escaped to Qingyuan Village, and Mo Zhu’s grandma had taken him in, and he saved her grandma when she was in danger. The two of them had a relationship where they had a close shave from death, but they didn’t know much about each other.

“How are you?”

“It’s a little dangerous. Those idiots, I’ll be practicing medicine in Africa for the time being.”

“Are you targeted again?”

“Don’t worry, you’ll be fine,” the girl said with absolute certainty.

“That’s true. After so many years, they couldn’t find me. They all thought that someone was backing me up. But for me, I hope that it’s ‘Lin’.” Yun Jing chuckled.

Before long, Yun Jing was called to go and save someone.

Mo Zhu unhurriedly took out her computer, and a few red dots appeared on the map-like interface. The girl’s fingers on her phone moved quickly, and in a few seconds, the red dots disappeared. It was nothing new for the girl, and she turned off the computer.

The next morning, someone knocked on Mo Zhu’s door really early. It was Aunt Zhang, the person who had opened the door yesterday.

“Ms. Mo, it’s time to get up. Madam has instructed us to attend the lunch with the Huo Family this afternoon. It’s not good to be late.”

Madam Zhang had been with Matriarch Fang before she even got married. Naturally, she looked down on Mo Zhu who had come from the countryside. In her eyes, Mo Zhu was just a person to be used. She was not even as decent as a servant like her.

“Oh,” said Mo Zhu before heading downstairs. Qin Ya and Fang Ran were already sitting down. Fang Ran was talking to Qin Ya, making her laugh happily. And when the two of them saw Mo Zhu, they stopped. The happy family scene was disrupted by Mo Zhu.

When Qin Ya saw that Mo Zhu was still dressed the same as yesterday, she scolded, “Why aren’t you wearing the clothes I bought for you? Remember to change into a gown later. You have to see Young Master Huo in the afternoon.”

Mo Zhu ignored her and sat down to eat breakfast.

“How uneducated. Your sister and I were waiting downstairs for you to have breakfast together. You didn’t even greet us before eating?”

“Don’t I have to thank you for my lack of manners?” Mo Zhu raised her head.

Qin Ya choked. Fang Ran quickly comforted Qin Ya while Qin Ya praised Fang Ran like a baby.

“Xiao Zhu.”

A gentle male voice sounded. Mo Zhu looked up and Father Fang came down from upstairs. Mo Zhu remembered him from last night and he was the only person who did not show disdain towards her.

Father Fang sat down beside Mo Zhu and gave Qin Ya a questioning look.

“Did you sleep well last night?”

“It’s alright!” In fact, Mo Zhu had not been sleeping well. There were bruises under her eyes, and since Aunt Zhang had started calling for her at seven in the morning, her cold face had shown her usual laziness.

“Xiao Zhu, if you don’t want to marry Huo Xuan, I’ll think of another way.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Ya and Fang Ran’s expressions changed drastically.

“How can this do?!”

Father Fang was already unhappy with Qin Ya’s actions since some time ago. “Both Xiao Zhu and Ran Ran are your daughters, Qin Ya!”

The girl laughed softly. “Stop arguing. Fine, I’ll marry him.”

Mo Zhu’s face was full of indifference as if she was not the one who was marrying.

“Xiao Zhu, you…” Father Fang hesitated.

Qin Ya and Fang Ran heaved a sigh of relief.

At Yun Cheng’s largest hotel

Everyone from the Fang family had already taken their seats. Mo Zhu was also brought in from the private room. She was still playing games on her phone.

Matriarch Fang wanted to teach her a lesson, but it was as if she was talking to a wall. In the end, she could only turn her head to Qin Ya who was behind her.

Qin Ya could only swallow and glare at Mo Zhu who had made her lose face.

However, all of this did not affect Mo Zhu at all. The person in question just found a comfortable seat and continued playing her game.

Not long after, the Huo family arrived. It was Huo Xuan and Xu Huan. Everyone looked at the man who was wearing a silver mask. Although his movements were lazy, they could not resist the noble and intimidating aura around him. The young master of the Xu family also came.

The crowd did not dare to be negligent and welcomed them with flattery. Only Mo Zhu, who was in the corner, continued playing her game and was not disturbed by the outside world.

Xu Huan also noticed this girl.

Matriarch Fang shot a look at Qin Ya, who pulled Mo Zhu up and said, “Young Master Huo, this is my daughter, your fiancée.”

“Oh? The beloved daughter of the Fang family?” Huo Xuan playfully added the word ‘beloved’.

However, when Qin Ya met Huo Xuan’s gaze, she trembled uncontrollably.

“Using the Fang family’s stepdaughter to muddle through?” Xu Huan’s scrutinizing gaze landed on Fang Ran, almost scaring her to tears.

The Fang family quickly apologized.

“You’re about to die, of course, they won’t marry the outstanding Fang Ran to you.”

“Bastard, what are you saying!” With Matriarch Fang as the leader, all sorts of nasty words began to fall on Mo Zhu.

“If they hadn’t taken my grandmother away, I wouldn’t be willing either.” The young woman waved her hand nonchalantly at Huo Xuan.

“Hehe…” Young Master Huo, who was the most cold-blooded and cruel person in the capital, actually laughed in front of the crowd.

His deep eyes locked onto Mo Zhu and the two of them stared at each other for a long time.

“Since she’s my fiancée,” Huo Xuan looked up with a faint smile. “She isn’t someone anyone can bully.” Then, he walked out of the private room.

Xu Huan had a good impression of this girl, who was neither servile nor overbearing. “Little sister-in-law, goodbye.”

They left behind a house full of frightened people and Mo Zhu, who was still out of the picture.

Mo Zhu did not want to see the Fang family together, so she came out as well. A man in black stood outside.

“Young Master Huo asked me to pass this to you.”

Mo Zhu played with it in her hand casually. It was a piece of jade, and it was obvious that it was worth a lot of money. Coincidentally, Mo Zhu was short of money recently, but she was not someone who took other people’s things for free. Thus, Mo Zhu took out a small black bottle from her pocket.

“Give this to Young Master Huo.”

This was given to her by Yun Jing. She still had many bottles at home. Based on what she had observed on Huo Xuan’s condition just now, although it couldn’t save his life, it definitely had some use. She still wasn’t too sure about Huo Xuan’s exact condition, but her initial judgment was that he was poisoned.

In the Huo family’s house

Huo Xuan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. His facial features were as perfect as a sculpture, and there was a hint of white on his cold lips. However, it still couldn’t hide his noble aura.

Mo Wu entered, following behind Xu Huan.

“Master Huo, Ms. Mo asked me to pass this to you.”

“That kid.” Xu Huan accepted the bottle and chuckled. He then opened the bottle, and a grave expression suddenly appeared on his face.

Mo Wu also looked over, and his expression froze. “That’s a de-condensation pill?”

“That’s impossible, right? Ms. Mo just came from the countryside. How could she have a pill that was auctioned at sky-high prices in the underground auction market?”

However, high-quality medicine could be identified from the color and taste. This de-condensation pill looked better than the ones from the underground auction market. This was a de-condensation pill, and it was highly possible that it came from that divine doctor.

All these years, they had been looking for the whereabouts of the divine doctor. If they could find him, there would be hope for Master Huo’s illness. However, no matter how they looked for him, there would always be someone behind the divine doctor to help him erase his traces. Even if they mobilized top-notch technicians, they wouldn’t able to accurately locate his exact location.

With this medicine, would they be able to find the whereabouts of the divine doctor and cure Master Huo’s illness?

Hope bloomed in their eyes as they looked at Huo Xuan.

The man still had that cold look on his face, as if it was someone else who was terminally ill. However, when he heard Mo Zhu, something flashed past his eyes.

“I’ll go look for Ms. Mo now!” Mo Wu rushed out hurriedly.

Xu Huan looked at Mo Wu, who was in a hurry. He wanted to say something, but he had already left before he could. Thus, he just let him go and sat down beside Huo Xuan.

“Does Mo Zhu know the divine doctor? That shouldn’t be the case, right? She’s just a kid. She might have had some fortuitous encounter, and she didn’t know the value of this thing, thus giving it to you by accident. We’ve been searching for the divine doctor for so long, but we still haven’t found him. How could we have found him through the appearance of a child? Mo Wu was too rash, but it was also because he was worried about you. What do you think?”

As Xu Huan spoke, he turned to look at Huo Xuan, only to find that his face was unusually pale. Xu Huan quickly helped him sit down. Even though he looked like he was in pain, there wasn’t a single hint of emotion on his noble face.

For so many years, every time his illness acted up, Xu Huan would always see him endure it alone. Just like that, he endured it for two years. Xu Huan sighed, he was anxious and uneasy. Just as he was about to call Huo Xuan’s personal doctor, he caught a glimpse of the bottle that Mo Zhu gave and immediately brought it over to Huo Xuan.

Not long later, Huo Xuan’s expression improved. At that moment, Huo Xuan’s personal doctor arrived as well. He performed a full-body checkup on Huo Xuan. Having just experienced immense pain, he looked exhausted.

“Mr. Huo’s condition has been alleviated, and the spread of his condition has been suppressed. There is an increase of two more months before it will spread to his heart!”

“That’s great, in this case, we have two more months!”

The man leaned back against the chair and narrowed his peach blossom eyes. His brown eyes were deep and unfathomable.

“Master Huo, no matter what, Ms. Mo gave us the medicine. Shouldn’t we go and thank her?”

“Let’s do it tomorrow.” Huo Xuan looked at the dark green bottle thoughtfully.

On the other side, Mo Wu went back to look for Mo Zhu. At that moment, Mo Zhu had already returned to the Fang family’s house. She was informed that someone was looking for her outside. Qin Ya and the others had also heard it and knew that it was Huo Xuan’s subordinate. They did not dare to be negligent and quickly got Mo Zhu to go.

Mo Zhu walked down the stairs unhurriedly. “What’s the matter?”

Mo Wu knelt down in front of Mo Zhu. “Ms. Mo, please save my Young Master. I’m willing to repay you with my life.”

“I can’t save your young master, and I don’t need your life.”

Mo Zhu just stood there, her eyes cold and unmoved.

Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s reply, Mo Wu had already calmed down. He realized that Mo Zhu was just a young lady from the countryside who did not even have the ability to protect herself, much less save his young master.

Mo Wu got up slowly. “Sorry to disturb you, Ms. Mo.”

Mo Zhu looked at Mo Wu’s figure, her eyes a little cold.
