Chapter 49: Calamity Strikes (2)

  The usual pitiful look was nowhere to be seen, Xing Xin Yu picked up the folding fan in her hand and placed it in front of her nose, laughing exaggeratedly "Hu Ling Er, you didn't expect it to be me, did you? You've always been high and mighty since childhood, but now you're in this state?"

  Huǒ Líng'er felt puzzled "I don't remember offending you?"

  What Xingxinyu said seemed to be extremely resentful of her, and she indeed didn't have much interaction with Xingxinyu. If it was just because of this reason, it shouldn't have been enough for her to gloat over someone else's misfortune, should it?

  "Hah~~, Huo Ling'er, you're always so high and mighty, yet you don't even realize when you've offended someone. You deserve to be living on cloud nine."

  Xing Xinyu's eyes were fixed on Huo Ling'er, her gaze so sharp it seemed to want to bore a hole through the other girl's body.

  Huǒ Líng'er clenched her fists, an idea suddenly shocked her and she stared at Xīng Xīn Yǔ "Is our family's bankruptcy related to you?"

  "Miss, you should go back to school. Even if your family goes bankrupt, you have the right to continue studying at Anqiya Academy." The butler knew that what was about to happen would be too cruel for Huo Ling'er, and sometimes it's better not to know certain things.

  The housekeeper pushed and pushed, but Huo Ling'er's stubborn body didn't budge.

  Huǒ Líng'er didn't know where she got the strength to resist Guǎn Jiā's power, her eyes were fixed on Xīng Xīn Yǔ without blinking, she wanted to know the answer, why all this happened, she needed a clear explanation.

  "That's because your father is no match for others; business is like a battlefield, and success or failure isn't up to you to decide."

  "Besides, your family still owes us 1 billion yuan in debt, when are you planning to pay it back?"

  "Anyone with a brain would have been kicked out of Anqiya Academy, what right do you, a loser, have to stay in the noble paradise?"

  Xing Xin's sharp words turned into a knife edge, cutting towards Huo Ling'er without mercy, but Huo Ling'er listened to the cruel truth, her body stiff and unmoving.

  Huǒ Líng'er's straight body was so hateful to her, obviously already a loser, what was she pretending to be noble for? Nobility was in the past, now she was only worthy of being her maid.

  Xīng Xīn yǔ yōu yǎ kuǎn kuǎn de zǒu xià lóu tī, tā yòng shǒu zhōng de shàn zi zhǐ zhe huǒ líng ér, tóu áng de gāo gāo shí zú xiàng gè shèng lì zhě zī tài "bù rú nǐ guì zhe gēn wǒ shuō jù, wǒ shì fèi wù, wǒ yī kāi xīn wǒ jiù yuán liàng nǐ, ér qiě hái dà dù de bù gēn nǐ jì liàng jiā zú zhài wù rú hé?"

  "Hmm"

  Huǒ Líng'er let out a cold laugh, as if she had just heard some delightful joke.

  Xing Xinyu's face suddenly lost its elegant color, and she pointed at Huo Ling'er in a fluster, saying "Don't be arrogant, can't you seize this rare opportunity well? You should know that I'm not always so generous."

  What she wants is the winner's advantage, and absolutely not Huo Ling'er's disdain.

  It was as if everything had exceeded her expectations.

  Huǒ Líng'er's laughter grew louder, she hugged her belly and curled up her body, her pure and transparent eyes no longer had a hint of sadness, her disheveled hair standing in front of Xīng Xīn Yǔ without showing any weakness.

  She is a born queen, no need to pretend, it's inherent in her bones.

  "Xīng xīn yǔ, nǐ píng shén me xiǎng wǒ xū yào qián cái? Píng shén me xiǎng wǒ huì jiù wǒ jiā lǎo tóu zi, tā de shī bài bù dài biǎo wǒ de, suǒ yǐ wǒ bú shì shī bài zhě, nǐ, yě jué duì bú shì wǒ huǒ líng ér fàng zài yǎn lǐ de duì shǒu."

  Translation:

  "Xing Xinyu, what makes you think I need money? What makes you think I would save my old man, his failure doesn't represent me, so I'm not a loser. You are absolutely not an opponent in the eyes of my Huo Ling'er."

  "What if I lose my house? What if I lose my property?"

  "To be honest, I've been looking forward to today for a long time."

  His jaw dropped to the floor, and his face looked even more hideous under his delicate makeup.

  Huǒ Língér shrugged, her hands clasped behind her back, and shot a disgusted glance at Xīng Xīn Yǔ, as if she was looking at something incredibly disgusting.

  "By the way, I forgot to tell you, you're really ugly!"

  As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around, her hair fluttering, and her movements were smooth and natural, that was the effortless elegance.
