Chapter 10: Playing Cat and Mouse with Seventh Master

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Dr. Gu’s face was solemn when he heard Mu Anan’s question.

“You didn’t find out anything?” Mu Anan asked.

“Seventh Master had asked Luo Sen to handle this matter personally. No one knows anything except Luo Sen.” Dr. Gu’s expression was grave, but after thinking about it, he realized that the situation was not the worst.

He added quickly, “Based on the current situation, Seventh Master probably hasn’t found Zhong Ting yet.”

Mu Anan agreed with Dr. Gu’s conjecture.

If Zong Zhengyu had found Zhong Ting, he would definitely have had her brought back to Yuyuan Estate.

If they hadn’t found Zhong Ting yet, what progress had Luo Sen made about Xing Yun Kingdom?

Mu Anan was silent for a long time, unable to come up with an answer.

She didn’t mind playing this kind of cat and mouse game with Zong Zhengyu, but she was very unhappy because she felt that she was losing control over the whole matter.

Seeing Mu Anan’s frown, Dr. Gu began to worry.

He moved his lips several times, wanting to say something, but he realized that it was useless to say anything now.

Both of them knew from the beginning that playing cat and mouse with a man like Zong Zhengyu was akin to risking their lives.

It was already good that they were still alive.

“Dr. Gu, it’s almost time for my class. Please carry on with your work.” Mu Anan ended the silence between them.

She would not admit defeat, nor would she make any compromises.

As long as there was a chance, she would find a way to cover up this matter. She would never give Zong Zhengyu any excuse to send her away.

Dr. Gu had always admired Mu Anan’s tenacity and calmness. Seeing her calm reaction, he didn’t say anything more and left Mu Anan’s room.

Mu Anan also did not think too much about this matter for now.

After Dr. Gu left, she took her clothes and went to the bathroom to wash up and change.

Mu Anan was studying at the most famous medical school in Jianglan City. She was currently in her third year.

After breakfast, she drove to school as usual.

But she parked her car ten blocks away from the university and travelled the last ten blocks on a shared bicycle.

The main reason for her unusual journey to school was that the row of luxury cars in Zong Zhengyu’s garage was worth tens of millions.

Once a luxury car like that appeared in school, it would cause a sensation. Zong Zhengyu felt that any car worth less than ten million yuan was not worthy of Mu Anan, and he wouldn’t let her drive it.

But Mu Anan only wanted to keep a low profile and study.

Therefore, she came up with such a comprehensive method to get to school.

She had practiced this for three years, and everything went well.

“Didn’t you say that classes were suspended yesterday? Why did classes resume today?”

“My brother-in-law knew someone in the school board. I heard that it was Seventh Master who ordered the suspension of classes yesterday. It was also him who ordered the resumption of classes.”

“What’s going on?”

“I think it’s because of the Seventh Master’s little princess. She also attends our school. Apparently, she had too much homework and fell sick. But the little princess expressed coquettishly that she couldn’t fall behind in her homework, so classes were resumed.”

“Seventh Master is really good to the little princess. I also want to be a little princess.”

“Save it. She’s the apple of Seventh Master’s eye for the last seven years. He’s very protective of her. Even when his little princess attends our medical school, he still protects her at all cost.”

“…”

As soon as Mu Anan stepped into school, she heard all sorts of gossip about her and Seventh Master.

In Jianglan City, Seventh Master of Yuyuan Estate was a god.

This didn’t happen only at their little medical school. Everyone in Jianglan City gossiped about Seventh Master and his little princess.

In the past, Mu Anan would still listen quietly, but she was feeling anxious today and was in no mood for gossips.

“Anan!”

Just as Mu Anan was about to walk into the classroom building, a friendly shout came from behind her.

Mu Anan turned around and saw a chubby girl waving at her enthusiastically as she ran toward her.

The chubby girl’s name was Chen Hua and she was Mu Anan’s only gal pal in medical school. She was a good-tempered person and was especially nice to Mu Anan.

“Anan, have you heard? They are going to announce our internship locations today. Do you have any insider information?” Chen Hua played with her slightly oily mid-length hair nervously as she asked.

Internships were too important for third-year medical students like them.

A good internship placement would help their graduation and future employment.

If they didn’t get a good placement, their future would be miserable.

Mu Anan shook her head. “I don’t know the details.”

“I’m so nervous. I don’t know where I’ll be placed…”

“Where do you think you will be placed given your current state?”

Before Chen Hua could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a cold sneer.

The person who mocked Chen Hua even deliberately knocked into her.

Compared to Chen Hua’s chubby figure, this woman’s figure was curvaceous and very beautiful. It was just that she looked down on others.

Chen Hua was unhappy. “Chen Jiali, what are you up to now?”

“Oh, I’m just reminding you to stop dreaming! The counselor has already said that there are limited internships this time around. Those who are not very capable can only wait for the next round. Do you think you will get a slot this round with your results?”

“I, I…” As a not-so-good student, Chen Hua was so angry that her face turned red. She pulled Mu Anan into the conversation in the end. “I may not get a slot but our Anan is the top student in our major!”

Chen Jiali was even more disdainful when she heard this. “Stop it, alright? Everyone in medical school knows that Mu Anan, the ugliest girl of the century, is the so-called top student in her major because she copied Miss Jiang Qin. Only a scoundrel like Mu Anan would steal Miss Jiang Qin’s first place.”

“What nonsense are you spouting!” Chen Hua was very angry. “That’s because our Anan was a better student!”

“Who doesn’t know that the super goddess in our medical school is Miss Jiang Qin? Not only is she beautiful, but she’s also a top student. She deserves to be first!”

That wasn’t said by Chen Jiali, but by a male student passing by.

With this male student’s comment, more onlookers started to mock Mu Anan.

“Mu Anan always sits with Miss Jiang Qin and she always copies my goddess’ answers until she got first place. She’s really shameless.”

“I’ve seen shameless people, but no one as shameless as her!”

“Can you even look at Mu Anan’s ugly face?”

“Hahahaha!”

Mu Anan watched coldly as the surrounding people mocked her more and more.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to fight back, but she was too lazy to waste her breath on these weaklings.

Mu Anan was calm, but Chen Hua beside her was fuming. She wanted to retort, but she couldn’t fight so many mouths.

At this moment, someone shouted, “Miss Jiang Qin is here!”

This shout caused quite a stir.

A red BMW stopped at the school gate. Jiang Qin got out of the car in an haute couture dress. She played with her long wavy hair, exuding the charm and temperament of a goddess.

When she stepped into the medical school, a group of male fans crowded around her, and the scene was comparable to a celebrity’s arrival.

In their medical school, Jiang Qin was a celebrity.

She wasn’t just the first young miss of Jianglan City’s top medical group, she was also a top student with the best looks and figure in their medical school.

She was a super goddess.

Although Chen Hua didn’t like Jiang Qin, she couldn’t help but be envious. “I wish I had that kind of life and appearance…”

Chen Jiali looked at Chen Hua with disdain and said arrogantly, “Let me tell you two. You don’t even deserve to be envious of Miss Jiang Qin’s life or appearance. But you two, fatty and ugly, deserve each other.”

Chen Jiali then covered her mouth and snickered.

Chen Jiali was right, because Mu Anan was indeed very ugly now…
