Chapter 615 - 619: Leng Zirui’s Hesitation【5】
Leng Lin also fell silent.
After a moment, he spoke again.
"These few days, I’ll have someone keep an eye on her. Since Zimo has already crushed her hopes directly this time, I want to see how she reacts. If she realizes her mistake and repents, we will let her off this time."
Leng Zirui thought for a while, then gently nodded.
"Leave this matter to me."

World City.
In the piano room, Leng Zimo heard a knock on the door and immediately stood up to put away his cigar, and stood up to pull open the door.
"I got a bit hungry, so I made some late-night snack. Do you want to come and have some?"
Outside the door, stood Luo Xiaoqian with a smile on her face, wrapped in an apron.
Leng Zimo frowned in reproach, "Why haven’t you gone to bed yet?!"
"Are you coming?" Luo Xiaoqian grabbed his hand and pulled him out of the piano room, "Last time Aunt Su mentioned that your mother made delicious shredded chicken cold noodles, so I specifically looked up the recipe online. Come and taste it, how well did I do?"
She pulled him into the dining room, seated him on a chair, then Luo Xiaoqian laughed as she walked toward the kitchen, and in a moment, she came back carrying a plate.
"Da-da-da-da..." Doing a little dance, she placed the plate in front of Leng Zimo, Luo Xiaoqian handed him the chopsticks, "Luo’s shredded chicken cold noodles, for His Majesty to sample. If it suits your taste, I can instruct the Imperial Kitchen to make it more often for you."
Leng Zimo grabbed her wrist, "Eat with me."
"There’s another plate, let me get it." Luo Xiaoqian went back into the kitchen smilingly, brought out her own plate, and sat beside him. She picked up the chopsticks and mixed the noodles in the plate, "I was afraid it might be too spicy for you, so I didn’t dare to add chili pepper. Let me try it first."
She picked up a noodle and tasted it, chewing thoughtfully.
"Mmm, it tastes absolutely delicious." She looked up at Leng Zimo who hadn’t started eating, her smile fading as she turned serious, "Are you still thinking about Sister Xu Pei’s matter?"
Leng Zimo nodded slightly, "Xiao Qian, I don’t want to hide from you, it’s not just the video incident, including this plagiarism incident, according to my guess, it might all be related to Xu Pei."
Luo Xiaoqian swallowed the mouthful of noodles she had, "I know."
"You know?" Leng Zimo was somewhat surprised.
"The night of the dinner, it was Sister Xu Pei who drove Ya Nan home. Although I was groggy, I wasn’t so oblivious as to not notice anything," Luo Xiaoqian pursed her lips, "Of course, at first, I didn’t think much of it. But after Sister Xu Pei and I had a confrontation that night, I suddenly guessed it might have been her doing. The reason I didn’t tell you that detail is because I was hoping that it wasn’t related to her."
"Xiao Qian?!" Leng Zimo frowned, "This time, because of me, you’ve been wronged again!"
Xu Pei’s targeting of Luo Xiaoqian had no other reason than because of him.
"Hehe." Luo Xiaoqian gave a childish laugh, "A battle, eh? The enemy suffers a thousand casualties, and we lose eight hundred; there’s no victory without bloodshed!"
As for Xu Pei, it was impossible for her not to hate her.
She was neither a god nor a saint, she couldn’t just turn the other cheek after being hit on one side.
If she could, she only wished she could slap Xu Pei across the face, expose all the events to the public, and let everyone know just how despicable and treacherous this seemingly powerful goddess truly was.
But Luo Xiaoqian didn’t want to make things difficult for Leng Zimo.
...
...
Good night.
