70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 142: A Little Warning

After getting home, Xu Mumu gave the honey to Li Caixia and told her to put it away.

In the afternoon, after teaching a few kids, Xu Mumu went out to find Yin Yang.

Yin Yang had helped her a lot, so she had to thank him properly.

When she arrived at the settlement for the educated youth, everyone was there, and they were quite surprised to see Xu Mumu.

"Shen, I’m looking for Yin. Could you help me call him?" Xu Mumu said with a smile. She knew Shen Qi, who seemed to be in his twenties, and this man really liked Bai Xiaofu.

"Wait a moment." Shen Qi nodded and went inside to call for Yin, while Xu Mumu waited at the door.

Soon, Yin Yang came out. He was quite surprised that Xu Mumu came to find him, but he greeted her with a gentle smile.

"Yin, let’s have a chat," Xu Mumu said with a smile.

"Sure." Yin Yang did not refuse at all.

Xu Mumu walked ahead, with Yin Yang a step behind her, as she led him to the back of the mountain where there weren’t many people around.

"Yin, the tape recorder you sent is really useful. Thank you." Xu Mumu said earnestly, looking at Yin Yang.

"No need to be so polite; we’re friends." Yin Yang replied with a gentle smile on his face.

There seemed to be starlight in Yin Yang’s beautiful eyes, which made Xu Mumu momentarily dazed.

"Yes, friends. Yin, you want your grandpa to be rehabilitated, right?" Xu Mumu crossed her arms and leaned against the tree behind her.

"Yes, it seems nothing can be kept from Mr. Xu." The smile on Yin Yang’s face faded a bit.

"Wait for over a year, and your grandpa should be rehabilitated by then. Or maybe you’ll have to wait two years." Xu Mumu looked at Yin Yang.

"What do you mean?" The smile on Yin Yang’s face disappeared completely, and his gaze became much sharper.

Xu Mumu leaned in and whispered softly into Yin Yang’s ear.

"How do you know these things?" Yin Yang looked at Xu Mumu, the young girl in front of him seemed to be a mystery. Such classified information shouldn’t have reached a small place like this, and his people had only heard some rumors, whereas Xu Mumu clearly knew much more in detail.

"Guess. This is my way of repaying you for finding the tape recorder for me. As for whether you believe it, that’s up to you. Opportunities are yours to grasp." Xu Mumu said with a playful smile.

She hadn’t met this Professor Song, but from the bits and pieces Yin Yang mentioned, she knew some information. Professor Song was once a physics professor at Imperial University.

If Yin Yang could seize the opportunity, this Professor Song could definitely become one of the first to be rehabilitated.

"I believe you. But what you’ve told me today, don’t spread it around, it could cause you a lot of trouble." Yin Yang chuckled lightly, sincerely looking at Xu Mumu.

"Don’t worry, I’m not stupid." Xu Mumu said calmly. She only hinted to Du Yu and Xue Yan, but Xue Yan didn’t believe it, while Du Yu’s father was capable and must have heard some rumors, which is why he pressured his son to study hard.

"That’s good then." Yin Yang nodded with a smile.

Apart from herself, only Xu Xue knew about the upcoming reinstatement of the college entrance examination. Given Xu Xue’s nature, she would probably only tell Huo Qingze and no one else, which would mean fewer competitors.

"I won’t tell anyone either." Yin Yang said, looking at Xu Mumu. Although he didn’t know where she learned such confidential things, he trusted her not to deceive him, as there was no point in doing so.

The two chatted for a bit before Xu Mumu got up to head home. It wasn’t good for an unrelated man and woman to be alone together for too long, even if she didn’t mind much. Having a good reputation had its benefits.

Just as she was about to leave, Xu Mumu was stopped by someone. She sighed; it was Bai Xiaofu, undoubtedly one of the ’troublesome admirers’ drawn to Yin Yang.

"What’s up?" Xu Mumu asked bluntly.

"Of course there’s something, Xu Mumu. Look at your own status and keep away from Yin Yang, or don’t blame me for not being polite." Bai Xiaofu’s face was very unpleasant; she didn’t expect Xu Mumu to come looking for Yin Yang again.

Lately, Yin Yang had been rather indifferent towards her and the others, and he hadn’t asked them for help while mingling with Xu Mumu, something Bai Xiaofu couldn’t tolerate.

"Are you threatening me? No one’s threatened me in a long time; it’s kind of interesting. How are you planning to be impolite to me?" Xu Mumu smirked, leaning towards Bai Xiaofu.

Bai Xiaofu was frightened and unconsciously took two steps back.

Realizing this was humiliating, she looked at Xu Mumu’s face, which was so close and beautiful, much more attractive than hers. After arriving in this village, her skin had become much rougher.

Seeing Xu Mumu’s face, malicious intent flashed in Bai Xiaofu’s eyes, and she reached out to slap Xu Mumu’s face. Her nails were long, and if she scratched, she hoped to tear that face apart. Then let’s see how she’d charm Yin Yang.

Xu Mumu’s eyes turned cold, and she effortlessly grabbed Bai Xiaofu’s hand.

"Ha, quite bold, aren’t you?" Xu Mumu chuckled coldly, applying a bit more pressure.

"Ah, let go, it hurts." Tears welled up in Bai Xiaofu’s eyes from the pain. She couldn’t break free from Xu Mumu’s grip, and with Xu Mumu squeezing her wrist, it felt like her arm’s bones might break.

Damn, how is Xu Mumu so strong?

"If you like Yin Yang, go after him yourself. What’s the point of threatening me? This will just be a small warning; next time, maybe I’ll break your neck instead." Xu Mumu’s smile was gentle, but to Bai Xiaofu, it was nothing short of devilish.

Xu Mumu released Bai Xiaofu and gave her a disdainful glance.

Being stared at like that, Bai Xiaofu shrank in fear, her wrist still hurting. She needed to visit the clinic soon. How was Xu Mumu so strong? Her wrist turned red and swollen, just brushing it caused pain.

Xu Mumu was quite satisfied with the outcome but secretly resolved to stay farther away from Yin Yang next time. Many in the village fancied Yin Yang, and she couldn’t be bothered to deal with them.

When she got home, Xu Xue had already returned, and there was no one speaking over at the second house. Little Xu Wan had hidden away in the kitchen out of fright.

Xu Mumu raised an eyebrow slightly, seeing Xu Xue in a bad mood. Did things not get resolved?

"Bro, what’s going on with Second Uncle’s side?" Xu Mumu asked, a bit puzzled.

"Sis, I really admire you right now." Xu Minghui looked at his sister, full of emotion.

"What happened?" Xu Mumu asked, confused.

"You guessed everything right; the money’s coming back. But Xu Xue wants to be in charge, and Second Uncle and Aunt don’t like that. Although she’s quite tough, she directly took control of the money and tickets, so now Second Uncle and Aunt are just angry." Xu Minghui said, gloating.
