After Miss Lu became the only one to enjoy the limelight, her six brothers knelt down and begged for

Lu Ning remained calm, noticing the change in Mo Shiyi's expression.

In just a few seconds, Mo Shiyi's expression went from embarrassment to anger, before quickly returning to calm.

Lu Ning had to admire the socialite's composure in managing her expressions.

She was tricked by Mo Shiyi at the coffee shop last time.

Mo Shiyi's smile faded, her tone tinged with arrogance: "But Qian and I have always been childhood sweethearts, and we're a perfect match. But you're different. He even hides his true identity from you. How much sincerity does he have for you?"

Lu Ning felt bad after hearing these words.

A cold smile played on her lips: "Miss Mo, are you no longer pretending?"

Mo Shiyi's eyes flashed with annoyance: "Why would I pretend? All the things I said to you before were for your own good. Otherwise, do you really think Cinderella can one day rise to the top and become a phoenix?"

"Miss Ke Mo has been scheming for so many years, wasn't it all to marry a husband from a wealthier family? But unfortunately, she failed in the end and could only resort to underhanded tricks to sow discord between me and Ji Chiqian."

After hearing Aunt Ji clarify yesterday that Ji Chiqian and Mo Shiyi were not engaged, Lu Ning basically guessed that it was Mo Shiyi who was behind it all.

After all, Mo Shiyi was also there when they met at the pear garden that day, and she knew about her relationship with Ji Chiqian at that time.

From that phone call onwards, Mo Shiyi began to make her plans.

But the fact that Mo Shiyi knew Ji Chiqian's phone password made Lu Ning feel a little uncomfortable.

Mo Shiyi's expression instantly darkened. This bitch is quite clever.

Mo Shiyi lowered her voice: "So what? He didn't even tell you his real identity because he was afraid you'd end up clinging to him. You should have asked him by now, right? It won't be long before he starts treating you coldly, since he's not going to marry you."

Mo Shiyi spoke at length, but seeing Lu Ning's indifferent expression, her heart sank.

Lu Ning suddenly burst out laughing, and the mockery in her eyes instantly stung Mo Shiyi.

Mo Shiyi's voice became noticeably sharper: "What kind of attitude is this?"

“Miss Mo, you must not have looked in the mirror when you were talking just now. Your jealousy is so obvious that even this thick foundation can't cover it up.”

Lu Ning's casual remark directly enraged Mo Shiyi.

"Lu Ning, don't be too smug. You're not good enough for the Ji family. Aunt Ji and Grandma Ji would never approve of your relationship with him."

The only thing Mo Shiyi could use to pressure Lu Ning was their social standing as an equal.

Lu Ning smiled faintly: "That's something I should consider. It's none of your business. You came to me in such a hurry because you wanted to test how my relationship with Ji Chiqian is going, and whether I'll continue to be with him, right?"

She won't be so foolish as to fall for a trick this time.

Mo Shiyi gritted her teeth in anger: "Miss Lu, you really are as unlikable as the rumors say."

"Miss Mo is just as rumored—shrewd and eloquent, able to make lies sound true. She even tried to label me as a mistress. I don't have your thick skin!"

Lu Ning no longer held back.

After all, this woman had schemed against him before, and made her so sad and heartbroken.

Now that I've come to my senses, I realize it was all designed by Mo Shiyi.

Mo Shiyi snorted coldly: "Qian and I have been childhood sweethearts, and our two families have been discussing our engagement."

"You can only fool yourself with these words. It's clear that the Mo family wants to curry favor with the Ji family, and you want to marry Ji Chiqian, but he has never taken a liking to you or liked you."

Mo Shiyi was sorely offended by these words that she raised her hand to hit someone.

Lu Ning grabbed the other person's wrist: "What, are you getting angry because I hit the nail on the head?"

"Lu Ning, you ill-mannered slut, how dare you even dream of marrying Ji Chiqian? Don't you know your place? You're an orphan with nothing..."

Lu Ning applied a little force, and Mo Shiyi was in so much pain that she couldn't speak.

Her eyes were cold: "You have everything, but Ji Chiqian still doesn't even look at you. You should look for the reasons within yourself!"

She let go and pushed Mo Shiyi away: "Miss Mo, if you want to continue causing trouble, then I'll play along to the end. I still have a lot of dirt on your sister."

Lu Ning still has dirt on Mo Shanshan. If this is exposed, not only will Mo Shanshan be in trouble, but the Mo family will also be laughed at.

Mo Shiyi's expression changed instantly. She originally thought that Lu Ning was from a small place and would be easy to deal with, but she didn't expect her to be such a tough nut to crack.

Finally, Mo Shiyi spoke coldly: "Your Lu family members are all scheming to climb the social ladder. Your eldest brother even went so far as to become a live-in son-in-law in the Chen family. You've really lost all sense of shame for the sake of power."

"You're absolutely right. After all, Miss Mo's lying at the coffee shop was quite shameless."

Lu Ning didn't care at all about the bad things Mo Shiyi had said about the Lu family.

Seeing that the match was about to start, she turned around and left to go backstage to prepare.

Mo Shiyi gripped her designer handbag tightly, staring at Lu Ning's retreating figure: This little bitch, just you wait!

-

Lu Ning arrived backstage and joined her teammates.

Wang Yang, the second best player on the team, was discussing tactics for the upcoming match and various unforeseen circumstances with everyone.

Watching from the side, Lu Ning suddenly felt that this competition was definitely in the bag.

After the match started, Lu Ning led her team outside, where many fans were holding up support signs with her name on them.

The camera was mostly focused on Lu Ning, after all, she is a popular game streamer with excellent gaming skills and receives a lot of attention.

During the match, Lu Ning and Wang Yang worked together seamlessly, ultimately securing a comfortable victory in the game.

Loud applause and screams erupted from the audience.

Lu Ning smiled. She wasn't too surprised by the result, since the preliminary round was relatively easy.

After winning the game, a reporter interviewed Lu Ning: "Everyone is currently very concerned about one issue, which is that everyone has noticed that Miss Lemon often plays games with a gamer whose online name is: If Time Could Turn Back. Is this your boyfriend?"

Lu Ning paused for a moment and then said, "No."

It used to be, but it isn't anymore.

The reporter immediately asked Wang Yang, who was standing next to him, "You two work so well together, and you used to train together a lot. Isn't there really a spark between you two?"

Wang Yang was stumped by the question. He glanced at Lu Ning beside him, then smiled and said, "We're just teammates with good chemistry right now."

Lu Ning knew that the reporter had mistaken Wang Yang for Ji Chiqian, since the two had the same game name.

After the interview, Lu Ning took her team back to school and arranged a celebration dinner that evening.

But after returning to school, the leader came to find Lu Ning personally: "The celebration banquet for tonight has been arranged at Liyuan."

Everyone was stunned: "It's in Liyuan, that restaurant that's rumored to be very expensive and only members can enter."

"Is the school offering such good treatment this time?"

The leader smiled and said, "This was all arranged by the investors. They said you all performed very well this time, and you'll all be going later."

But Lu Ning seemed to be thinking to herself, "Could this investor be Mo Shiyi?"

What exactly does that woman want to do?

Is he trying to show off, or does he have other plans?
