"Let you off?" Shen Qianqian sneered. "Chen Yu, weren't you so bold before? Daring to talk behind my back? Why are you so scared now?"
Chen Yu trembled uncontrollably.
She truly regretted it. She shouldn’t have said that Lin Li was cheating on Shen Qianqian and that she deserved it. She shouldn’t have said that no man would ever truly love Shen Qianqian.
Because she was slightly more attractive, she had overshadowed Shen Qianqian to become the campus belle, and Shen Qianqian had always bullied her.
Even after she deliberately made herself look plain, Shen Qianqian still wouldn’t leave her alone.
She had always harbored resentment toward Shen Qianqian, so when she was chatting with her friends about Shen Qianqian that day, she couldn’t help but say a few harsh words. Little did she know, Shen Qianqian had overheard.
She had always known how terrifying Shen Qianqian could be, hadn’t she?
Moreover, her father was a small-time manager at a company under Shen Corporation. Losing his job would be as simple as Shen Qianqian uttering a single word.
Her mother needed a large sum of money for her medical treatment, and her father’s salary was indispensable.
She should have endured until she graduated from university. Just one more year, and she would have been free.
"You lowly trash, how dare you point fingers at me?" Shen Qianqian’s delicate face twisted in anger.
Zhang Li watched with amusement, clearly enjoying the spectacle.
She had always disliked Chen Yu, that little vixen with her seductive looks.
Thankfully, Shen Qianqian could keep her in check.
*Slap! Slap! Slap!* Shen Qianqian struck Chen Yu’s face several times.
Chen Yu bit her lip, enduring the searing pain in silence.
A faint cough echoed from inside the house.
"Yu Yu, what’s going on?" Chen’s Mother’s weak voice called out from the bedroom.
"Mom, I’m just watching TV," Chen Yu replied loudly. "Mom, you’re not feeling well. Go back to sleep."
"Alright, alright."
Chen’s Mother murmured and closed her eyes.
"How filial of you," Shen Qianqian sneered.
"Qianqian, you can do whatever you want to me," Chen Yu pleaded. "But please, don’t let my mother find out. She has a heart condition and can’t handle any shocks."
"Fine, I’ll agree to that, but on one condition."
Shen Qianqian took a plate of food from the dining table, dumped it on the floor, and had her bodyguard stomp on it.
"Chen Yu, eat it! Crawl on the ground like a dog and eat it! No hands allowed!"
Chen Yu clenched her fists, her face filled with humiliation.
"You have ten seconds. If you don’t eat it, don’t blame me for having my father contact your dad’s company and getting him fired."
"Not only that, I’ll make sure your mother sees exactly how her daughter is being humiliated by me."
Shen Qianqian lifted her chin arrogantly.
"My family has power and influence, Chen Yu. I advise you not to defy me!"
Chen Yu bit her lip and got down on her knees, crawling toward the food on the ground.
Shen Qianqian watched with a triumphant smile as Chen Yu lowered her head and began licking the floor.
"Eat it!"
"Hahahaha!"
"Keep eating!"
The bodyguards watched impassively, clearly accustomed to Shen Qianqian’s cruel behavior.
"Qianqian," Zhang Li flattered, "with your looks and background, how could anyone not genuinely like you? She’s just jealous of you."
"I don’t think there’s a man alive who wouldn’t fall for you."
Shen Qianqian’s eyes darkened.
Indeed, with her family’s wealth and her beauty, how could anyone not love her?
So what if Lin Xuan didn’t love her now?
He was just bewitched by that vixen.
She would definitely win Lin Xuan back from that woman. Once he got to know her, he would surely fall for her!
Shen Qianqian suddenly grabbed Chen Yu’s hair and flung her to the side, causing Chen Yu’s face to hit the ground.
Chen Yu lay on the floor, biting her lip and holding back tears.
"Don’t overestimate yourself and mess with me again, understand?"
Shen Qianqian said, stepping over Chen Yu’s face in her little skirt before leaving.
After Shen Qianqian left, Chen Yu got up from the floor. She silently cleaned up the mess in the living room, then went to the kitchen to prepare her mother’s medicine.
"Mom, it’s time to take your medicine," Chen Yu called out, waking her mother.
Chen’s Mother propped herself up on the bed, leaning against the headboard as she drank the medicine. She noticed the bruises on Chen Yu’s face and froze.
"Yu Yu, how did you get such a big bruise on your face?" Chen’s Mother asked, her voice filled with concern.
"It’s nothing," Chen Yu replied, covering her face. "Mom, don’t worry. I just tripped and fell."
"How could you get hurt so badly? Go put some medicine on it."
"Okay."
Chen Yu nodded.
Her nose stung with unshed tears. After leaving her mother’s room, she crouched in a corner and sobbed quietly.
Shen Qianqian left the rental house.
"Qianqian, let’s go shopping," Zhang Li suggested.
"No, I’m going to the Lin family’s house," Shen Qianqian said through gritted teeth. She needed to win Lin Xuan back as soon as possible.
She couldn’t let him sink deeper into that woman’s clutches!
Shen Qianqian entered the Lin family’s villa and sat down on the living room sofa, her expression haughty.
In her eyes, the entire Lin family had wronged her, and she owed them no politeness.
"Qianqian, what brings you here?" Jiang Shuqin asked, her tone ingratiating.
Shen Qianqian frowned. "Where’s Uncle?"
"Wait a moment, I’ll call him right away," Jiang Shuqin replied with a forced smile.
Lin Li emerged from his room, faintly hearing the conversation in the living room.
He frowned and asked a passing servant, "Who’s here?"
"Young Master, it’s Miss Shen Qianqian," the servant replied respectfully.
Lin Li’s face darkened.
What was she doing here? Was she here for Lin Xuan again?
Lin Chang hurried back after receiving Jiang Shuqin’s call.
"Qianqian," Lin Chang said warmly. "It’s been a while. How are you and your father doing?"
Shen Qianqian ignored his question and asked, "What’s the progress on arranging my engagement with Lin Xuan?"
"Don’t worry, Qianqian. I’ll have it sorted out soon," Lin Chang assured her. He had already set the plan in motion.
"Good. You’d better hurry. If I’m not engaged to Lin Xuan within three days, the partnership between Starlight Group and Shen Corporation is off!" Shen Qianqian snapped.
With that, she got up and left.
Jiang Shuqin’s face turned grim.
It was all about Lin Xuan again!
Lin Xuan must have deliberately seduced Shen Qianqian!
Shen Qianqian was originally Lin Li’s fiancée, and Lin Xuan was clearly trying to humiliate Lin Li through this!
"Darling," Jiang Shuqin couldn’t help but say, "didn’t you try to reach out to Lin Xuan before? He didn’t give you the time of day. Maybe we should just let this go."
"Don’t worry. This time, it will work," Lin Chang said confidently.
If Lin Xuan wanted to grow his company, he had no choice but to return to the Lin family.
Lin Xuan had no other option.
Lin Chang had discovered that Lin Xuan was the owner of Tianmu Group. Instead of going to see him at school like before, he decided to visit Tianmu Group directly.

m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it!

e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ...
