Chapter 330 Owing Her a Favor
After hearing Lin Yan’s agreement, Xing Meng nodded and claimed that she had something on. Then, she turned around and left, not catching up with the girl.
By the time Xing Meng caught up to Mo Zhu, the girls from Jingyang High School had already found their dormitory. To be fair, everyone decided to choose their beds according to the results of the previous preliminaries.
Coincidentally, Xing Meng’s results were the last among the girls who entered the preliminaries. Seeing that Mo Zhu was also here, she did not throw a tantrum. She directly placed her luggage neatly beside the bed and started to tidy her bedsheets.
Xing Meng had been studying martial arts since she was young. Although the Xing family was very rich and had a high status, when she went to poor places to study sometimes, the conditions were indeed harsh, so her requirements for accommodation were not that high.
After quickly packing up her things, Xing Meng walked to Mo Zhu’s side in a few steps. She raised her hand and patted the girl’s shoulder lightly. She smiled and said, “Mo Zhu, no matter what, I was the one who helped you solve this matter just now. Do you owe me a favor?”
Mo Zhu sat on the bed and played her phone game intently. She glanced at Xing Meng coldly from the corner of her eye and said indifferently, “You helped me solve it? Weren;t you just afraid that I’ll destroy Lin Yan, right?”
Just now, Lin Yan was so arrogant and forced her to take action during the mourning period for her grandmother. If not for Xing Meng’s sudden appearance and interference, not to mention Lin Yan, the girl who did not know her place and was taught badly by her family, even if it was the entire Lin family, as long as she gave the order, they would probably only be left with a shell now.
Xing Meng saw that Mo Zhu had hit the nail on the head with her words and smiled awkwardly. She touched her nose and replied, “You can even tell. To be honest, the Lin family and the older generation of the Xing family have a good relationship. Our families have been friends for a hundred years. It’s not good for me to not interfere in this matter.”
After a pause, Xing Meng placed her hand on her knees and continued, “Let the Lin family off today. Consider this a favor I owe you. If you need any help in the future, just send someone to inform me.”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she raised her eyebrows with interest. “Matters that get me to ask for help have never been anything small. Are you sure you can accept it?” Xing Meng smiled and patted her chest. “If I can’t do it, there’s still the Xing family behind me, right? Don’t worry, l— Before she could finish, Mo Zhu glanced at her expressionlessly, stood up, and left the dormitory.
Today, she could treat it as if she did not want to cause trouble the moment she arrived in Beijing and let the Lin family off. Recently, trouble has come one after another. First, it was the sinister Jade Face Guan Yin, and then all sorts of toxins that overwhelmed her. She had not found any useful clues regarding these matters, so it was not good to cause trouble at this juncture.
Just as she left the dormitory building and arrived at an open space filled with weeds in the research institute, the phone in Mo Zhu’s pocket rang.
She took out her phone and looked at the caller ID. She realized that it was a call from Huo Xuan. Mo Zhu smiled lightly before answering the call.
Putting the receiver to his ear, Huo Xuan’s gentle and magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone. “Why are you answering the call so quickly? Are you done with the training?”
Mo Zhu replied softly, “Yes, the classrooms and the dormitories have been arranged.”
After a pause, she seemed to have recalled something and Mo Zhu continued asking, “How’s the investigation going? Do you have any clues?”
When Huo Xuan heard this, he smiled and continued, “I miss you. Xiao Zhu, come to the entrance of the research institute.”
Upon hearing that Huo Xuan had come to the research institute, Mo Zhu immediately hung up and walked towards the door.
After a morning in the car and an afternoon of training tests, the sun had already set and the sky was gradually darkening.
Seeing that Mo Zhu was about to leave from afar, Jiang Yu, who had followed the girl all the way from the dormitory, rushed forward and asked in a low voice, “It’s getting dark, Sister Mo. Where are you going?”
