Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

Of course, Zixiao and Yuche were also with Yuzhe.

Yes, they filled up the space around Yu Zhe completely, leaving Mo Lingyun only half a meter away.

Walking outside the auditorium, Mo Lingyun felt the "pressure" coming from the front and couldn't help but mutter something.

"Ugh... Brother Yuzhe, you need to control them! Zixiao is a bit better, but why did Sister Yuche look like she wanted to beat me up from just now..."

How am I supposed to manage this?

Yu Che was still upset because Yu Zhe had sneaked out of the room that morning.

Hearing this, Yu Che, who was nestled next to Yu Zhe, turned around and retorted first.

"Don't talk nonsense. When have I ever hit anyone? Someone as gentle, well-educated, elegant, and kind as me can only reason with you at most."

You're not using a single word related to yourself!

Also, Yu Che has never beaten anyone, because she can't beat anyone.

Oh right, you might be able to beat that little Luo Xiaomeng, but unfortunately she won't fight you.

"Ha, you're a weakling. With your physique, you could drink milk for another hundred years before saying that."

Yu Zhe looked at Zi Xiao in surprise and whispered a reminder, "Zi Xiao! You've said what's on your mind..."

"what?"

Oh no... It must be because of the fight between Zixiao and Yuche over the bed last night that awakened some kind of strange rebellious consciousness in her.

It's a pity that you only suffered the consequences of your confrontation with her!

As expected, Yu Che changed her tactics and began her first battle of the new year.

"You damn Su Zixiao! You're a complete weakling, aren't you! Just wait until today, I'm going to go on a killing spree, and you'll be the first one!"

"Wait! Bro! You have to do something about her!"

As Yu Che pounced on Zi Xiao, the two chased each other on the pebble path beside them, and Yu Zhe smiled knowingly.

It seems that this year's Spring Festival is different from previous years. In the past, they were so busy with all sorts of things that they didn't have this kind of mood.

Yu Zhe cupped his hands in front of him like a megaphone and shouted to the girls who had run quite a distance away.

"Be careful! Don't fall! Zixiao, why don't you play with her for a while? She's just overexcited! She'll be fine in a bit!"

From afar came Zixiao's mournful cry: "But she bites people!!"

"..."

Oh dear...it seems I really do have an excess of energy.

Yu Zhe turned around and saw that Mo Lingyun was trembling slightly.

She thought she should avoid provoking Sister Yuche in the future... She's not only scary, she can bite.

Taking advantage of the temporary calm around them, Yu Zhe said with a smile.

"This is roughly the layout of the villa. Let's go back and rest for a while, and I'll show you the outside of the villa this afternoon."

"outside?"

Mo Lingyun did find this word wonderful, but even with its beauty, worries were inevitable.

"Can I go outside? No, wait... I can wear that black hood from last time, then..."

"No need for the black hood, just go out normally, I mean you..."

If you want to go shopping or out, you can stay home if you don't.

"Huh?"

Mo Lingyun was a little confused: "Brother Yuzhe, didn't you say before that you should try to go out as little as possible so that the Mo family wouldn't find out about me?"

“That was before.” Yu Zhe shook his head. “Yesterday, the people I sent out to investigate the current state of the Mo family came back. According to accurate information, well, you probably wouldn’t understand the specific data, Yun’er, but in short, the current Mo family is just a bunch of rabble running around. Whether it’s strength or status, they’re completely useless. I guess they’ve already given up the title of the number one family in Cangming City.”

"I see..."

Yu Zhe gleaned a great deal of emotion from Mo Lingyun's fleeting expression.

The most obvious thing is her disgust for the Mo family now. When she heard that they were declining, Mo Lingyun felt no sympathy whatsoever. She believed that it was their own fault.

Of course... there was also a sense of melancholy.

After all, the Mo family was her ancestral home. Regardless of who ran it, the Mo family had declined, and as the former eldest daughter of the Mo family, she must have felt extremely regretful.

Yu Zhe has a question to ask about this.

"Speaking of which, Yun'er, do you want revenge?"

"revenge...?"

“Yes.” Yu Zhe turned his head and looked at the distant sky. “Back then, because of the people in power in the Mo family, your parents unfortunately passed away, and you hid outside for ten years. I know you hate them.”

At this point, Yu Zhe turned back, a chill in his eyes: "So, I ask you, do you want them to be destroyed, utterly and completely destroyed in every sense of the word?"

"I..."

Mo Lingyun took a step forward.

Hesitant to speak.

Not long after, she shook her head with a wry smile, continued to walk forward, and stopped in front of Yu Zhe.

Seeing this, Yu Zhe had basically guessed her answer.

Mo Lingyun also gave her answer.

"To be honest, Brother Yuzhe, I used to really want revenge. I dreamed about it all the time. They killed my parents, ruined my family, and forced me to stay away from you, hiding in the dark all day long. I really wanted revenge... to let them taste that kind of pain too."

"But... I think I don't think that way anymore. I just want to stay by your side because I'm happy... If I go for revenge, I'll definitely lose a lot more, and I'll end up battered and bruised, haha... I sound pathetic, right? But I really just want to stay by your side and don't want to take any more risks..."

“There’s nothing shameful about it. The fact that you can say that means you’ve really figured it out, Yun’er.”

Yu Zhe gently stroked her cheek with relief, sighed and said, "Actually, I'm most afraid of two things. One is that you will try to commit suicide because you can't think straight, and the other is that you will be consumed by the flames of revenge and do whatever it takes to take them down with you. But now, neither of those worries are there, so I'm very happy."

"Brother Yuzhe..."

“However, there’s something I need to make clear.” Yu Zhe’s tone shifted, but the determination in his eyes remained unchanged. “What I’m saying is, I’m happy that you don’t want revenge anymore, but that’s a different matter from whether I will avenge you.”

"Brother Yuzhe... I don't want you to go out in that kind of wind either..."

“There’s no risk.” Yu Zhe pressed his finger to her lips. “Listen, Yun’er, I want to destroy them, simply because I want to. As for the difficulty, it’s like crushing a bunch of ants, a bunch of rotten ants. So, can you rest assured and watch from behind me as I help you achieve your revenge?”

"..."

There's no question of agreeing or disagreeing... Mo Lingyun's trust in Yu Zhe was always 100%.

And... her heart is pounding so hard it feels like it's going to jump out of her chest.

She quickly nodded, her cheeks flushed, unable to utter a single word.

"very good."

Yu Zhe withdrew his finger.

"However, before that, there's no guarantee they won't take any action after they find out you're still alive. I've arranged for Lu Ling and Lu Yao to stay with you during this time; I feel more at ease with them around."

Eh...

Speaking of Lu Ling and Lu Yao, where are those two sisters?

Something's not right. Every time I went back to the villa before, I would always see the two of them waiting at the door in the morning.

But I haven't seen them since I sent Mo Lingyun back to her room last night.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhe waved to Yu Che, who was still chasing and biting Zi Xiao in the distance.

5. I won't tell you your bonus is gone.

"Lu Ling, Lu Yao...? Brother Yu Zhe, are you talking about that expert who pinned me to the wall with one hand without saying a word when we first reunited? So there were two of them, twins?"

Yu Che hadn't arrived yet. Mo Lingyun recalled the events and now felt a lingering sense of unease.

Pressing one hand against the wall? Oh, if Yu Zhe thinks about it, that's actually true.

When Yu Zhe went to the comic book club a few days ago, Lu Yao didn't realize whether Yun'er was a threat and subconsciously made an attacking move, right?

It must have been tough on Yun'er. That blow looked quite forceful, and she'll probably have some psychological trauma from seeing Lu Yao in the future.

But Mo Lingyun's reason wasn't that...

She noticed it then; the way Lu Yao looked at Yu Zhe was strange. Rather than a loyal guard, it seemed more like an infatuation, a desire to "rebel" and push Yu Zhe down.

Lu Yao had almost no expression, but Mo Lingyun was quite perceptive in this regard and could tell.

It has to be said that Brother Yu Zhe is truly worthy of his reputation; he can even develop feelings for his own bodyguards. That's truly amazing.

And they're twins no less! That adds another strange opponent to the mix...

I wonder if Sister Yuche and Zixiao noticed it.

At this moment, Yu Che had already jogged over.

"What's wrong? Brother, did you call me?"

When she saw Yu Zhe waving at her, she quickly abandoned Zi Xiao and ran over.

After she left, Zixiao breathed a sigh of relief and slowly walked over.

She looked at the row of teeth marks on the back of her hand and felt a lot of emotions.

It's best to avoid provoking Yu Che in the future; those two tiger teeth of hers bite really hard.

Yu Zhe looked at Yu Che, who was skipping and hopping towards her. She looked like she had won a great battle, shaking her head and being extremely happy.

"You little brat, biting people is an unfair way to win, you know... Anyway, Yu Che, do you know where Lu Ling and Lu Yao went? I haven't seen them since yesterday."

"Ok?"

After Yu Zhe said that, Yu Che looked around.

There's really no one here.

Is it as usual, lurking around to protect them secretly? But this is their own villa, there's no need for that.

So Yu Che raised her right arm and waved it, which was a signal for the Lu sisters to appear, but nothing happened.

"That's really strange... These two actually have times when they slack off at work?"
