Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Too Expensive
Thinking of Yueyue being in the same class as them, she seemed to regret what she had just said.
Should she just endure when bullied?
But resorting to violence is really not good.
"If someone bullies you, use words to fight back. Hitting people is not good, it can easily hurt yourself..."
Lin Xiang earnestly advised Yun Yue, her heart aching for her. Her birth mother had died, and her father was unreliable, so it was very understandable that she developed such a personality. Thus, she was very patient with Yun Yue.
She couldn't bear to scold her harshly, and could only advise her gently.
Yun Yue's hand paused, and she leaned back, her slender legs curled up, licking her lips, a gleam in her eyes.
Use words?
She only used her hands!
Lin Xiang didn't know if Yun Yue listened or not. Fearing she would find it annoying, she didn't say more.
"Yueyue, who gave you that letter?" Lin Xiang finally asked the question that puzzled her, knowing only the elusive principal of the First Middle School could have made Director Li so cautious and respectful.
She heard he was the head of a big family in Beijing. How did Yueyue know him?
Yun Yue let out a sound, her eyes narrowing slightly, nonchalantly saying, "The principal of First Middle School. He was being robbed, and I helped him chase the thief and retrieved his things, so he gave me a recommendation letter saying I could attend Lancheng High School."
Lin Xuanze tilted his head, stretching his neck curiously to their side.
He was very curious about who the letter was from!
He guessed it was the principal,
since he had seen Director Li acting submissive in front of the principal, exactly the same way!
She helped out bravely?
With her arms and legs, could she really snatch things from a robber?
That must be a lie!
It always feels like she's bluffing.
But she really did get into First Middle School because of that letter...

Liu Lanfang had been anxiously waiting for them to return, on pins and needles.
Sister Li smiled upon seeing her, "Old madam, don't worry. Miss will definitely get into First Middle School."
Could Liu Lanfang not worry? She had seen those records. People at First Middle School were not fools, and she feared they might not even save face for the Lin family!
The door opened, and Liu Lanfang heard the noise and rushed to the door. Seeing Lin Xiang, she asked nervously, "How is it, will First Middle School accept her?"
"Mom, don't worry, First Middle School will accept her."
Lin Xiang revealed a gentle smile. Her words finally eased Liu Lanfang's breath and the weight in her heart settle.
She did not share the details with her to keep her from worrying. Yueyue's fighting must not have been known by Mom, right?
Because Yun Yue successfully got into First Middle School, the atmosphere at home had improved a lot. To celebrate, Sister Li prepared a few extra dishes.

After dinner, Yun Yue sat on the sofa playing with her cellphone before suddenly standing up.
"I'm stepping out for a bit."
"Where to? Do you want the driver to take you?" Lin Xiang paused while watching TV, then turned to look at her.
"No need."
Saying this, she left a cool silhouette and vanished at the door.
It was already September, but the sun was still scorching, baking the ground.
Yun Yue squinted her eyes and walked out of the Lin Mansion.
Under a big tree, Mo Fan leaned against a flashy motorcycle, whistling as he saw Yun Yue approach.
"Seems like your stepmother treats you quite well." Mo Fan stood with a carefree pose, exuding a rascally air.
"Get on."
Yun Yue pushed past him, put on her helmet, and with a swing of her long slender legs, mounted the bike.
Without another word, Mo Fan put on his helmet and sat in the back, his arms tightly wrapped around her slender waist.
This guy is crazy!
She's even crazier!
Whoosh!
The car disappeared from the spot in a flash, and despite having ridden with her multiple times and mentally preparing himself, Mo Fan couldn't help but scream out loud!
Is this even driving!
It's clearly flying!
After fifteen minutes, the car smoothly parked at Wis Bar!
Mo Fan got out of the car, his mind somewhat blank, thankful that he didn't get motion sick!
As they entered Wis Bar, the deafening music made Yun Yue frown.
"Don't ask me to come to places like this next time."
Yun Yue's voice made Mo Fan shiver. The ancestor was angry!
Knowing she didn't like such places, but what could he do!
It was their choice to meet here!
Fortunately, the private room had good soundproofing, or else she might have just walked out!
They really couldn't handle this matter without her!
While waiting for the other party to arrive, Mo Fan briefly explained the reason he had asked her to come.
"Xiao Bai ran into some trouble. He was captured by a force, and they've seized everything, demanding one billion for his release."
"How much?" Yun Yue raised an eyebrow, clearly thinking it was a joke.
"One billion." Mo Fan felt somewhat guilty. He didn't know who had leaked the information, leading to the loss of several brothers, even Xiao Bai had been captured. If only he couldn't find any information on the opposing side, he wouldn't want to tell Yun Yue, fearing a beating!
"No need for ransom, he'll escape himself!"
Yun Yue crossed her legs, her expression deep.
Seeing her like this, Mo Fan's first thought was: It's over, she's not rescuing him!
Yun Yue spun her mobile phone in her right hand, her eyes gleaming coldly. Do they think they can mess with her people and merchandise without consequences?
"One billion? I could scavenge junk for a month and only make five hundred thousand. Why is he so expensive?"
Mo Fan's mouth twitched. You really think you scavenge for a living?
The items she casually auctioned off could each go for more than a billion!
But he knew, the person before him was always stingy. Getting her to pay one billion to rescue Xiao Bai was absolutely impossible!
She always preferred direct action!
At that moment, the door to the private room was opened, and a middle-aged man with two subordinates walked in.
"Two women?" His surprised gaze fell on Yun Yue and Mo Fan as he twirled two metal balls in his hand, his intimidating eyes scanning them as he sat across with an imposing aura.
"Are you Mr. Long?" Mo Fan narrowed her eyes. She had never seen this man before, yet he had the capability to swipe items from Xiao Bai and even capture him!
Impressive!
"Did you bring the money?"
The two bodyguards behind him looked menacing, one on each side.
If it weren't for these two women looking like more than ordinary women, he would never have guessed they were in this business!
"Money? What money?" Yun Yue's indifferent voice replied, her legs propped up on the table, the soles of her feet facing Mr. Long, her arrogance unrestrained as she lowered her head to play with her phone, not sparing a glance.
Seeing Yun Yue like this, Mo Fan knew she was gearing up for a fight!
He secretly cursed, hoping nothing bad would happen!
"How dare you play Mr. Long! I think you two don't want to live anymore!"
His two bodyguards simultaneously drew their guns, one for each, the muzzles glinting coldly.
Mr. Long stared at the two women. The combined age of these two girls was less than his, but for some reason, Yun Yue's aura was even more powerful by a few notches. Her eyes held reckless arrogance and cold indifference, and despite the guns pointed at her, there wasn't a trace of fear, only a playful interest!
Outside the rock music throbbed, and the atmosphere inside the room was eerily strange, with each harboring their own schemes.
A ringtone suddenly broke the silence.
Yun Yue's gaze shifted to her phone, unabashedly under the scrutiny of the three men, and she picked up the call on speaker.
"Boss, I've successfully wrecked their hideout and captured quite a few valuables. Your trick of feigning surrender was brilliant!" Xiao Bai's voice came through the speaker, his tone clearly exhilarated.
