The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl

Chapter 1049 - 1045: Master Mo’s Hidden Depths

Before Xin Lin and her father moved into the School Clinic, Master Mo was stingy not just with others, but even with himself, only buying cold buns and pickled vegetables from the Dining Hall to eat every day.

There weren’t many patients at the School Clinic; Xin Lin couldn’t figure out how she had so much money.

Could it be that the stories Master Mo bragged about were all true?

Back then, she was the most beautiful woman on the Eastern Continent...

Xin Lin shook her head, dismissing the impossible thought from her mind.

If it weren’t for Mu Chen being the sucker, this would have been big trouble.

Xin Lin was sure that Master Mo didn’t have several million taels.

"I only borrowed some silver taels from the dean out of respect for Master Ji, not wanting his estate to go outwards, coupled with my savings over the years, thinking it would be easy enough, who would have thought I’d run into Mu Chen, that psychopath squandering brat. Twenty million taels to buy such a broken building, are his silver notes made of grass paper?"

Master Mo muttered.

"Master Chen has already been punished, which counts as half revenge for Master Ji, as for Tu Suxia..."

Ye Lingyue looked at Taoyao Pavilion.

Thankfully, in the end, Mu Chen was the sucker.

Twenty million taels to buy a fireworks hall, one wonders if the Mu family in Fengdong will be half-angry upon hearing the news.

But these are Mu family’s affairs, Xin Lin and Master Mo returned to the School Clinic just before midnight.

Chu Beiqing was already asleep.

"Chu Tianyi had his funeral; recently, there’s been no movement outside, your father can’t hide forever, can he?"

Master Mo grumbled.

Chu Beiqing has "pretended to be ill" for quite some time.

He’s been cooped up in the room, making Master Mo feel even sorry for him.

"Let him come out tomorrow. The hidden hand behind should not act for now."

Xin Lin pondered.

She always suspected that the one setting up the foolish father was inside the Imperial Palace.

That mysterious Martial Soul constantly bothered Xin Lin.

Since that night, after the mysterious dead fetus incident, Xin Lin had ghost soldiers in the palace on alert, yet that mysterious Shadow Martial Soul hadn’t appeared again.

Now, Emperor Longteng was overwhelmed with end-of-year taxes, Empress Feng, after Empress Dowager’s incident, seemed to temporarily let go of Xin Lin, and appeared to settle down.

A good message came from Shi Pin’s side, saying that on the fifteenth of next month, Emperor Longteng plans to confer Shi Pin as noble concubine.

Xin Lin also had to busy herself with the End of Year Assessment matters; after Chu Beiqing’s condition stabilized, she could only let him out for the time being, believing that as long as he stayed within Qingtian Academy, there shouldn’t be any major problems.

Returning to the small cabin, Xin Lin then felt she seemed to have forgotten something.

"That Pride Corpse guy threw a tantrum all night? He hasn’t shown up until now!"

Xin Lin suddenly slapped her forehead, remembering she had forgotten about Pride Corpse.

That guy, is he considering running away from home again?

Xin Lin checked the sky; the east side was faintly lit.

"Danzi, go bring him back."

Xin Lin couldn’t bring herself to find Pride Corpse, thinking and thinking, she lifted the drowsy Rong Qiu.

Jiu Jiu~

Rong Qiu rubbed its eyes and suddenly jumped behind Xin Lin.

Behind, Pride Corpse was standing well.

With his handsome face frozen, the way Pride Corpse looked at Xin Lin had enough chill to kill her.

"What are you looking at me for? I didn’t gain anything good; Taoyao Pavilion is gone."

Xin Lin pouted in grievance.

One cent can’t kill a hero, she just felt somewhat apologetic towards the departed Master Ji.
