Chapter 258 Because I am the master of that doomsday fortress!
Upon hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao shrank back suddenly, staring at Lin Muyan with extreme vigilance.
Her hands were restlessly groping around behind her back, and Lin Muyan saw it all.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. With your physical condition, I can simply stand by and do nothing."
Shen Jiaojiao glared fiercely at Lin Muyan.
"Cursing me to die? Lin Muyan, let me tell you, don't think you've won just because you're smug now. I'll make you realize that you'll get your comeuppance for taking everything from me!"
"If it weren't for you, how perfect would my life be? For the first twenty years of your life, you enjoyed the wealth and luxury that should have been mine in the Shen family. Now that the world is ending, you are receiving all the care and attention in the Lin family. All that should have been mine!"
"Do you know how much I hate you? You were in the Shen family for twenty years, they must have treated you very well, right? You went back to the Lin family, and they treated you excessively well too, but what about me?"
Do you know how miserable my life was in the Lin family for the first twenty years? I finally returned to a wealthy family, and what happened? My biological parents were no good. They gave all their love to you! But everything changed when it came to me!
As Shen Jiaojiao spoke, she became more and more agitated, and blood continued to gush from her burns.
Lin Muyan pouted and said:
"Why are you doing so poorly? You should look for the reasons within yourself."
[Exactly! Besides, the Lin couple treats Shen Jiaojiao very well. In most families with three children, the middle child is often the least valued. But because Shen Jiaojiao was pretending to be in a bad mood, the Lin couple not only didn't neglect her, but even gave her the best of everything. And yet she still feels she's been wronged terribly by the Lin family.]
She deserves to be unhappy wherever she goes; no one will ever truly care about someone as selfish and self-centered as her.
[Once she returned to the Shen family, she completely severed ties with the Lin family. Even when Lin Xiao, who had always been kind to her, went to see her but was beaten by his own mother, she stood by and did nothing. Clearly, she deserves her current situation!]
[Only the weak blame others for their failures when they lack ability and spend all their time complaining.]
Shen Jiaojiao was quite angry at Lin Muyan's casual remark.
She wanted nothing more than to rush up and tear Lin Muyan apart, but she was unable to move because of her injuries.
"Stop talking nonsense. If we hadn't been switched at birth, I would definitely be a hundred times, no, ten thousand times, more powerful than you now!"
Ever since she learned that she had been switched at birth, Shen Jiaojiao has been thinking maliciously almost every day that if she had lived in the Shen family from the beginning, she would definitely be in a position that everyone envies by now.
Even the mysterious lord of the Doomsday Fortress might only be good enough to carry her shoes!
Lin Muyan felt that Shen Jiaojiao was beyond saving. This kind of thinking was extreme. People who are too self-righteous will never do well, no matter where they are.
"Haven't you heard the saying? Never romanticize the road you haven't traveled. What you think is a smooth road may be easy for others, but when it comes to you, it may be full of thorns."
"Hey, why bother telling you so much? I'm just being too talkative."
Lin Muyan chuckled self-deprecatingly, a meaningful look on her face.
She sensed it; some fierce auras were approaching.
Shen Jiaojiao didn't take his words seriously.
"Stop lecturing me. If it weren't for you, I would definitely be the leading lady who gets all the attention!"
"You should be glad I'm injured and can't do anything to you right now, otherwise, based on what you just said, I would definitely kill you!"
Lin Muyan raised an eyebrow. She clearly saw the murderous intent in Shen Jiaojiao's eyes and knew that this woman was telling the truth and wasn't just talking nonsense.
The thought that, according to her original life trajectory, she would have been thrown out of the house by this woman and eventually devoured by zombies and mutated beasts, made Lin Muyan's heart ache.
Fortunately, everything turned out differently.
Lin Muyan sensed those auras approaching and saw that Shen Jiaojiao was still arrogant and even threatened to kill her, so she suddenly had a little scheme.
She slowly approached a few steps and said to Shen Jiaojiao:
"Perhaps you are right. If it weren't for me, you would be the leading lady."
“Shen Jiaojiao, do you know? It’s a good thing you’re the kind of person I am. It makes me feel much less guilty. If you were well-behaved, sensible, and kind-hearted, I would really feel guilty for being switched at birth and having your original family stolen.”
"But unfortunately, you don't deserve my sympathy."
"By the way, there's something you might not know. Do you know why I was able to persuade the Lord of Doomsday Fortress to blacklist your entire family?"
Shen Jiaojiao suddenly raised her head, her teeth grinding together.
"So it was you who pulled the strings behind the scenes! You just wait, even if I become an illegal immigrant, I'll still live a dignified life! Don't get cocky just because you're doing well now thanks to some connections!"
Lin Muyan grinned.
"Then you're right. I'm doing quite well now, because, you know, I'm the lord of the Doomsday Fortress."
After he finished speaking, the whole room fell silent.
Shen Jiaojiao, who should have continued to curse, was now frozen in place as if she had been paralyzed, unable to utter a single word.
But soon, her laughter suddenly rang out, and she laughed so hard that tears streamed down her face.
"Hahaha! Lin Muyan, you really dare to brag about anything. I almost fell for your lies just now."
Shen Jiaojiao cursed inwardly, because the news was so shocking that for a moment, she didn't even have time to judge whether it was true or false.
But she quickly realized what was happening.
"Lin Muyan, don't try to provoke me with such lies. If you were the lord of the Doomsday Fortress, I would kneel down before you right now!"
How could Shen Jiaojiao possibly kneel before her? She said that to maximize her mockery of Lin Muyan.
But the next second, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Lin Muyan slowly raised her forearm, and the exquisite optical computer system materialized on her wrist.
In front of Shen Jiaojiao, she issued a nationwide mission to all citizens of Doomsday Fortress in her capacity as the highest authority of Doomsday Fortress.
The task is simple: everyone who says a word of thanks to the Lord of Doomsday Fortress to the quantum computer will receive an extra fresh banana at dinner time today.
In an instant, countless unread messages appeared in Lin Muyan's personal computer system.
She randomly clicked on a few.
"My Lord, you are my god!"
"Thank you, Lord of Doomsday Fortress, for providing refuge for humanity. I will always support you!"
"Dad! Grandpa! No, you're my ancestor! I'm going to worship you!"
"..."
Lin Muyan watched as Shen Jiaojiao's expression changed repeatedly, and then decided that it was about time.
She patted her bottom and left, satisfied.
