The Profligate Madam of the Family - Chapter 102
Chapter 102: The Aggrieved Lord Four Is Looked Down On
“Are you implying you are not certain?” Mo Linyuan’s eyes turned cold.
“No, Second Miss Xu truly did it. She seemed to be unhappy that Miss Leng Rongrong took possession of Mr. Xu’s gun, so she retaliated. I have already informed Mr. Xu. What do you think we should do?”
Tang Luo’s heart turned frigid. He had been by Mo Linyuan’s side for a long time, so he could tell from his eyes whether he was actually angry or not.
It had been a long time since he had seen Mo Linyuan in such a rage.
This time though, Mo Linyuan would surely explode.
Xu Rule was in trouble, and even with Xu Shiting’s protection, she would not have a good ending. She would surely experience a terrible death.
Tang Luo didn’t sympathize with Xu Rule either. She was arrogant and domineering. He had never liked her.
If not for Mr. Xu’s protection, Xu Rule would be eliminated without mercy.
Tang Luo did not expect that she would seek death in Mo Linyuan’s territory. In the past, Mo Linyuan would turn a blind eye as long as she did not cause trouble for him. However, this time, she endangered Miss Leng Rongrong.
Mo Linyuan would surely not let her off so easily.
…
Even Tang Luo could feel that Mo Linyuan had been very concerned about Miss Leng Rongrong recently.
Of course, Leng Rongrong was also very kind. When Mo Linyuan pretended to be disabled, she truly did not despise him at all. She even gave him money. It was only natural that Mo Linyuan was living off a woman.
Mo Linyuan glanced at Leng Rongrong.
When Leng Rongrong saw Mo Linyuan’s eyes, she was stunned.
What did that look mean?
Was it because Xu Rule is protected by Xu Shiting? Moreover, Mo Linyuan’s status might be lower than Xu Rule’s. Was Mo Linyuan asking her how to deal with it?
Although she didn’t like Xu Rule’s method of doing things, she was also not the kind of person who would take things lying down.
However, it didn’t seem too good to make things difficult for this fake husband of hers, right?
After some thought, she decided that since Mo Linyuan’s status in the Nether Abyss Empire was more important, Leng Rongrong said magnanimously, “It’s alright, you can deal with it as you see fit. It doesn’t matter if I don’t punish her. After all, she has such an influential backer, and Mr. Xu’s status is noble. Anyway, I didn’t suffer any severe injuries.”
“Are you saying your injuries are fine? It will not matter if I don’t punish her? She has such an influential backer?”
Mo Linyuan repeated Leng Rongrong’s words. His eyes were burning with fire. They were fixed on Leng Rongrong.
Wasn’t this woman a little too magnanimous? Shouldn’t she be thinking of ways to kill the person who harmed her at this time?
“What if I didn’t show up and you were killed by the crocodiles?” Mo Linyuan was furious. This woman didn’t cherish her body. It made him feel suffocated.
“Huh, I didn’t die, right?”
Didn’t she consider her situation?
Didn’t she realize the difficult position she was put in?
“Are you that afraid of Xu Shiting? She has a protector, but don’t you have one as well?” Mo Linyuan was angry and irritable.
“Isn’t Xu Shiting one of the founders of the Nether Abyss Empire? His status is second only to Lord Four…”
Leng Rongrong glanced at Mo Linyuan and understood. It must be a man’s desire to win that made him feel especially embarrassed.
“Well, it’s okay. I’m truly fine. Xu Shiting is a man of high status. I know that you’re just an assistant, and you can’t compete with him. I understand, and I won’t look down on you. Although you’re not the founder of the Nether Abyss Empire, you’ve become a member of the socialite empire’s internal organization. You’re already very powerful!”
Leng Rongrong spoke in all seriousness.
Mo Linyuan lowered his voice and got closer to Leng Rongrong. He looked at her intently. “Am I that useless in your eyes?”
This woman seemed to either see him as a person with a disability or a useless man.
Did he look that useless?
Why would he need a woman to sacrifice herself to protect him?
“No, you’re already very powerful,” Leng Rongrong explained, “You’re really amazing. The Nether Abyss Empire’s assistant is also someone with high status. Although you’re not as good as some people, you’re already a very powerful person to me.”
Mo Linyuan was speechless.
“Master, Mr. Xu is already waiting for you at the torture chamber. Do you want to go?”
Mo Linyuan stood up and glanced at Leng Rongrong. He wanted to say something but stopped.
It’s fine, so be it.
If he was weak, this young woman would find a way to protect him.
It was not a bad thing to have a woman protect him.
Leng Rongrong was flustered by his gaze. Every time she met Mo Linyuan’s eyes, she would feel an inexplicable sense of nervousness, even though he did not seem very intimidating.
She was never nervous when she saw her godfather, but ever since she discovered that Mo Linyuan’s legs were fine, she was intimidated by him…
******
At the Punishment Hall, Xu Rule was forced to kneel on the ground as Xu Shiting scolded her.
“Rule, what is wrong with you? Of all the people you could have provoked, why would you provoke Lord Four’s woman? I can’t even protect you this time. Are your injuries not enough?”
Xu Shiting was almost angered to death by Xu Rule.
He had thought that Xu Rule would calm down after being punished. Who knew that she would poke a hole in the sky?
He had already heard about the general situation from Nan Si.
Nan Si, that gossipy fellow, had a strong intelligence network, so he understood Mo Linyuan’s feelings thoroughly. It was said that his favor to Leng Rongrong seemed to have surpassed that of Miss Ling.
Miss Ling was once the woman whom Mo Linyuan cared about the most.
She was the only one who had been doted on by Mo Linyuan.
As for the others, many women who threw themselves into his arms ended up in a miserable state. Mo Linyuan did not even take a fancy to them. He was like an emotionless machine. No matter what kind of flirtatious slut came to his door, he was not interested.
However, this time, not only was Leng Rongrong married to Mo Linyuan, but they had also registered their marriage.
She wasn’t an internal member, but Mo Linyuan had taken extra care of her and made use of his connections for her. He had given her all the good things.
He had even heard from Nan Si that Mo Linyuan seemed to be gifting the entire Nether Abyss Empire Island for this woman!
The Nether Abyss Empire Island had been the gathering place of the organization for many years. How could it be given to a woman?
It was simply too unbelievable.
What was even more unbelievable was that he had heard that Mo Linyuan and Leng Rongrong had acknowledged a son together and had even taken a family photo.
Mo Linyuan never liked taking photos.
Therefore, he knew that Xu Rule had pushed the boundaries. She was in big trouble.
“It is good you’re aware that you can’t protect her even if you’re relatives.” Mo Linyuan and Tang Luo walked in from the door one after the other. His cold eyes swept over Xu Shiting.
Xu Shiting shuddered in his heart.
Mo Linyuan was seriously fuming.
Xu Rule lowered her head and did not dare to raise it. Although she wanted to act coquettishly and beg Lord Four to let her go, she could feel the trepidation in the atmosphere.
