However, in order to protect Ling Tian, Ling Yunlong pulled a lot of strings and spent 500 million yuan to buy a spot for her to graduate smoothly.
As for Ling Mo, Ling Yunlong didn't care about her life or death at all.
Ling Mo was well aware of this, but he didn't care.
She never needed anyone's protection.
You can compete on anything, just not on your father's connections.
Even so, a hint of melancholy crept into her clear, bright eyes.
Ultimately, she still harbored a sliver of unwarranted hope for this shallow family bond...
"Sis, something terrible has happened! Cousin Shi Yi has gone missing."
An anxious voice came from behind.
Ling Mo turned around unhurriedly, his dark, bright eyes glancing at Ling Tian, who was still breathing heavily. "If you know what's good for you, don't try anything funny in front of me."
"Mo... Sister Mo, look!"
Qiao Feng, who had just jumped off the arena, caught a glimpse of Shi Yi, who was on a high platform fifty meters away, with a time bomb planted on his body, calling out to Ling Mo with trembling lips.
Ling Mo looked in the direction Qiao Feng pointed and saw that there were only 90 seconds left on the countdown device. Without thinking, he leaped out of the arena and rushed towards Shi Yi, who was tied up on the main stage.
"Sister Mo, danger!"
Gu Tingbai had never heard of Ling Mo being able to defuse bombs before, and was about to stop her, but it was too late.
"Don't follow me."
Ling Mo rushed to Shi Yi at his fastest speed ever and activated the timer with a "click".
"Cousin...cousin, you must save me! I'm the only male in the Shi family, I absolutely cannot be harmed."
Shi Yi, who was tied to the chair, shouted in a low voice. His bloodshot eyes looked subconsciously at Ling Tian, who was following closely behind Ling Mo and panting heavily.
Their eyes met, and the meaning between them was self-evident.
Unfortunately, Ling Mo, busy defusing the bomb, didn't notice the smug expressions on their faces.
With a crisp snapping sound coming from the timer, Ling Mo's highly tense nerves finally relaxed.
She let out a long sigh, leaned back slightly, and gently comforted Shi Yi, who seemed still shaken:
"Cousin, don't be afraid..."
"Afraid? What do we have to be afraid of?"
Taking advantage of Ling Mo's momentary lapse in attention, Ling Tian strode forward and poured the prepared strong acid over his head.
"you!"
Ling Mo let out a heart-wrenching roar, and Qing Jiao's face was instantly corroded and turned into a bloody mess. Even her once neat pearly teeth were melted by the strong acid.
The veins on her hand, which was gripping the saber tightly, bulged as she swung it fiercely at Ling Tian beside her.
She originally thought that Ling Tian was just spoiled by her stepmother Su Yu.
She originally thought that although Shi Yi liked Ling Tian, he wouldn't go so far as to kill her, his own cousin, for Ling Tian's sake.
I never imagined they would be so ruthless!
Ling Tian tilted her body to the side, dodging Ling Mo's attack as it weakened, and sneered, "I told you, you wouldn't be my match."
"Why?"
Ling Mo's eyes ulcerated due to the corrosive effects of the strong acid, and his visual field dropped to its lowest point in an instant.
"Only if you die can I become the eldest daughter of the Shijian Group and rightfully marry Brother Feifan."
Ling Tian hugged her knees and looked at Ling Mo, who was curled up on the ground struggling in pain, with a charming smile.
Not far away, Gu Tingbai, Qiao Feng, and the others realized that something was wrong. They cursed at Shi Yi and Ling Tian while charging towards the main stage with all their might.
"A bunch of stupid pigs who chose the wrong side, damn it."
Shi Yi slightly raised his eyelids, suddenly stood up, and stepped on the top-secret device under the chair that could detonate landmines.
The next instant, accompanied by a deafening explosion, Gu Tingbai and the others were all blown into a bloody mess on the plastic track 20 meters away from the main stage.
"No!"
Ling Mo's face, half of which was completely corroded, was pressed against the rough ground in despair, and murky blood overflowed from her eyes.
"Accept your fate, you pathetic wretch."
Ling Tian raised an eyebrow, picked up two fingers, and ripped off the captain's armband from Ling Mo's arm, which was riddled with holes from being corroded by strong acid. She then smugly strode away...
Just as she and Shi Yi stepped out of the Super God Arena, two unfamiliar male voices suddenly reached the ears of the dying Ling Mo.
"Damn it, I'm too late! I wanted to witness the glory of the strongest king, but he's dead."
"How pitiful, what a pity."
"Third Brother, what are you doing?"
“This girl’s clothes are unbuttoned, let me button them up.”
...
"ah!"
The intense pain from the corrosive acid made Ling Mo frown.
But when she suddenly opened her eyes, she found herself unharmed, leaning against the back seat of the car.
Sitting beside her, Ling Yunlong looked at the loud and boisterous Ling Mo with displeasure and coldly rebuked, "Have you gotten used to being wild in the countryside all these years? You don't have the demeanor of a proper young lady at all."
Ling Mo rubbed his throbbing head, raising an eyebrow as he glanced at Ling Yunlong, who was speaking coldly to him.
How familiar this scene is...
To confirm his suspicions, Ling Mo snatched the newspaper from Ling Yunlong's hand.
Only when she saw the words "October 24, 2020" printed in the upper right corner of the newspaper did she dare to believe that she had returned to a year before the tragedy began.
She was seventeen years old that year.
It has been seven years since she was sent to live with her maternal grandmother in the countryside.
Because of the lack of family affection, she made a fatal mistake in her previous life.
Knowing full well that Ling Yunlong had no place for her in his heart, she naively believed that blood was thicker than water and that everything would be alright if they spent more time together.
