70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 288 - 7: Honesty (Part 2)

"And that person? Did you take care of it?" Xu Mumu sighed, the allure of this mine was really quite significant.

"I dealt with it," Yin Yang said mildly, but there was a bloodthirsty gleam in his eyes, "It’s just that with Yin Xu and Yun Ji, we can only take it slowly."

"It’s fine, where there’s life, there’s hope. Yin Xu is now like negotiating with a tiger." Xu Mumu touched her chin.

Yun Ji is Yun Luo’s brother, a ruthless and scheming man, confronting him rashly is not a good choice.

"Yes, the things belonging to the Yin Family that are in his hands, he has given to Yun Ji as a pledge," Yin Yang said calmly. In his eyes, Yin Xu was a mere clown, now with nothing left, completely unworthy of fear. His real enemy was Yun Ji, the Yun Family.

The Yin Family had developed exceptionally well abroad over the years. He was the only legitimate heir of the Yin Family, and now also the Family Head. Yun Ji wanted to control the Yin Family through Yin Xu, but of course, the premise of all this was to eliminate him first.

Most of the Yin Family’s power was overseas, and under the current circumstances, most of Yin Yang’s people were also abroad. Controlling the Yin Family was relatively easy.

There had been several calculations before, all of which Yin Yang had escaped from. Now that Yin Yang had appeared in the Imperial City, for them, this was a perfect opportunity.

Yin Xu had long gone mad to gain the Yin Family, caring about nothing, and had wholeheartedly become a tool in Yun Ji’s hands.

"Does he have anything important on him?" Xu Mumu asked.

"Not particularly important, but in Yun Ji’s hands, it is a small loss for the Yin Family. But I can afford that loss," Yin Yang said with a smile.

"And after that? Do you have any plans?" Xu Mumu looked at Yin Yang.

"Naturally, the mine can’t be given up. Now, I can start causing some trouble for Yun Ji. I still don’t have enough understanding of Yun Ji," Yin Yang also wanted to deal with Yun Ji right away, but it wasn’t realistic, at least not now. Domestically, he had no advantage. The Yun Family had long since recovered over these years, and dealing with him was relatively easy.

"Hmm, just don’t act impulsively," Xu Mumu nodded.

"Mumu, I’ve finished. Now, are you going to tell me your secret?" Yin Yang looked at Xu Mumu; Mr. Cao had long left the room, leaving the space for the two of them.

"Do you remember when you saved me from that river outside the brigade?" Xu Mumu said with a smile. She just knew that this guy had always remembered.

"I remember, what’s the matter?" Yin Yang asked curiously.

"It was back then that the previous Xu Mumu died, and I had also died before. Then, for some reason, I came back to life by borrowing a body. Do you believe it?" Xu Mumu said with a smile, it was indeed a very bizarre thing to say.

"I believe it. I heard you’ve changed a lot," Yin Yang said after a brief silence, looking at the serious Xu Mumu who didn’t seem to be joking at all.

"Aren’t you scared?" Xu Mumu asked with a smile.

"You’re my partner. What’s there to be afraid of? Mumu, please don’t leave me, okay?" Yin Yang looked earnestly at Xu Mumu. Even though Xu Mumu appeared relaxed, he could still sense her tension.

"I won’t," Xu Mumu said with a smile.

"Then can you tell me about your past?" Yin Yang looked at Xu Mumu.

Xu Mumu glanced at Yin Yang and then slowly began to recount the events of her past life.

"Are you afraid of me now?" Xu Mumu asked with a smile.

"No, I just feel so sorry for you. Living alone in such a world must have been so tough, right?" Yin Yang said, holding Xu Mumu’s hand with a pained expression.

Xu Mumu shook her head, "Compared to others, I was already very fortunate. I had a superpower that allowed me to protect myself."

Women without superpowers had it worse, having to rely on the strong to survive, with nothing to offer but their bodies, no dignity whatsoever.

"What about the original Xu Mumu?" Yin Yang asked, curious, because the events surrounding Xu Mumu were truly extraordinary, things he had never heard of.

"She should be dead. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to come back to life by borrowing her body," Xu Mumu said without much hesitation. Upon being reborn in this body, she experienced no discomfort at all; it was as if this body had always belonged to her.

Yin Yang stared intently at Xu Mumu, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

"What’s the matter? Why are you so hesitant? If you want to ask something, just ask," Xu Mumu said, finding Yin Yang’s hesitation amusing.

"Mumu, did you have anyone you liked before?" This was a particular concern for Yin Yang. His Mumu was so outstanding; surely there were many boys who liked her. Just thinking about it made Yin Yang feel even more envious.

"I didn’t have anyone. You know well that I’m a homebody. Ever since my parents passed away, I’ve mostly been alone," Xu Mumu said with a smile. This guy actually cared about that.

"Alright then, Mumu, I didn’t mean to bring that up and remind you of your parents," Yin Yang said cautiously, feeling joyful inside that Mumu only liked him.

"It’s fine. They’ve left, which might be for the best. At least they didn’t suffer through the apocalypse," Xu Mumu said with a light smile. She was being honest. After the initial two years of sadness, she gradually let it go.

After arriving in this world, even though Li Caixia and Xu Hai were very different from her previous life’s parents, they treated her with even more affection. She had completely accepted everything here. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have seriously planned for the Old Xu Family.

The past life’s memories, after just over a year here, felt so distant, like they belonged to a different world entirely.

"That’s true. By the way, what about Huo Qingze? How come you know him so well?" Yin Yang had been curious about this matter all along. Xu Mumu was his partner, knowing another man so well, how could he not feel jealous?

"This is probably even more bizarre. I think you might not be able to accept it," Xu Mumu said after a couple of seconds, looking at Yin Yang.

"But I want to know," Yin Yang said earnestly. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Since Yin Yang wanted to know, Xu Mumu straight away explained, briefly recounting the content from the book.

"Mumu, you’re not joking?" Yin Yang felt like the world wasn’t real anymore.

"What good would it do to lie to you? I’m too lazy to make up excuses just to appease you," Xu Mumu said blandly.

"What about me, is there anything about me in the book?" Yin Yang asked curiously. Today, what Xu Mumu mentioned was somewhat beyond his understanding.

"You’re not the protagonist in the book. Before the college entrance exam, you left the brigade with Sir Song, and nothing was described afterward," Xu Mumu said with a smile, then mentioned the things that the original did in the book.

Yin Yang felt a headache, thinking that if Xu Mumu hadn’t come, he would likely have been used by the original Xu Mumu and then run away, taking his grandfather with him, possibly even going directly abroad.
