This Lady is Here to Spend, Not to Cause Trouble

Shock and horror!

Ning Duanlang felt a chill run through his entire body.

On the surface, he forced himself to maintain calm, but his erratic breathing still betrayed the shock he felt inside.

His pupils dilated.

His gaze darted frantically around, trying to find any clues on the faces of the crowd.

Who?

Who had discovered his true identity!?

Reborn, although Su Muwan's early arrival had disrupted his plans, it was of little consequence. As long as he followed the opportunities he remembered from his past life, he would eventually catch up to her and eliminate her in this lifetime!

But...

Why had his identity as a reincarnator been exposed just after he won the family tournament?

Why?

Who could have discovered this?

Could it be that...

Ning Duanlang looked at the crowd, could there be a second reincarnator here!?

That’s why they could detect the abnormalities in his victory in the family tournament!?

Time passed.

The surrounding crowd gradually dispersed, and the environment grew quieter.

Until a puzzled voice broke Ning Duanlang's train of thought.

"Duanlang Ge, what's wrong with you?"

!!!

Ning Duanlang snapped back to reality. He turned his head to see Ning Lan holding his hand, looking very confused.

Looking around, he realized he had already left the awards ceremony with Ning Lan and returned to the branch family residence.

He had left the scene in a daze?

Understanding this, Ning Duanlang looked at the box containing the Breakthrough Pill in his other hand.

His expression gradually stiffened.

His mind recalled that sudden voice.

After pondering, he could only think of one reason.

That is... there is another reincarnator besides him!

With this thought, he shook his head, took a deep breath, and forced a smile at Ning Lan: "It's nothing, just thinking about some things."

Ning Lan relaxed upon hearing this. She let out a sigh of relief and said, "That's good."

As she spoke, she seemed to remember something and smiled: "Oh, and Miss Su seems different from the rumors. Although she still looks intimidating, she feels quite kind."

What a strange way to put it...

Ning Duanlang inwardly sighed. If you had seen Su Muwan's true nature, you wouldn't say that.

She is a ruthless and extremely cruel woman.

Right now... she’s probably thinking about how to torment the young nobles of Wang City.

Suddenly!

Ning Duanlang overlooked a crucial factor!

That is, Su Muwan's entourage!

In his previous life, he didn't remember Su Muwan having such an outstanding follower.

Thinking of this, Ning Duanlang looked at Ning Lan and asked, "By the way, Xiao Lan, do you know who the white-clothed man following Su Muwan is?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Lan's eyes lit up. She smiled and said, "Oh, that's Mr. Qin."

"He's very kind. After the match, he gave every branch family member a high-quality Blood Qi Pill, encouraging us to keep trying next time."

"Miss Su also said that the rewards for the next competition will be covered by her."

Encouraging the losers to keep trying?

What a joke.

Ning Duanlang found it hard to believe.

He remembered that in his previous life, Su Muwan was the type to grab someone by the throat and cruelly say, "The weak are meant to be trampled. If you have the guts, become stronger~" and so on.

But...

Ning Duanlang figured it out.

Heh, this must be Su Muwan's scheme to win people's hearts.

Ning Lan is still too young.

"Here, Duanlang Ge, this is your Blood Qi Pill."

After a moment of silence, Ning Duanlang took the Blood Qi Pill.

He looked at the high-quality medicinal pill.

He thought, why not take it? I'll bide my time and develop my strength for now!

As for Qin Luo...

Ning Duanlang decided to secretly investigate his identity.

As for how to investigate...

Hmm, he'll start by checking if anything has changed in this life compared to the last.

......

......

The night in Wang City was bustling and vibrant.

The brightly lit streets were filled with noise and excitement.

Qin Luo and Su Muwan strolled aimlessly through the streets.

Ning Muqing, on the other hand, kept glancing at her watch, worriedly looking at the two in front of her. She hesitated and said, "Su... Su Jiejie..."

"What is it, Xiao Ning?"

"The Ning family rules state that we must be home by 8 PM."

Upon hearing this, Su Muwan turned her head and waved her hand, saying, "Oh, come on, that's ridiculous. These days, young people don't consider it a night out unless they stay out until 11 or 12."

"Qin Luo, what time is it now?"

Qin Luo checked the time and smiled, "Exactly 7 PM."

Su Muwan was delighted. She stopped, turned around, grabbed Ning Muqing's wrist, and said with an expectant look, "That's still early! Xiao Ning, show Qin Luo and me around Wang City and find some fun places."

"To be honest..."

Su Muwan hummed, "I didn't even get full at dinner. Why didn't that family banquet serve any main dishes!"

Ning Muqing's expression relaxed slightly but still showed hesitation. "But if we don't go back on time, Auntie Qingyuan will be angry."

Auntie Qingyuan was Ning Qingyuan, who was in charge of the Ning family's disciplinary rules.

"Don't worry, I'll have my mom talk to her for you!"

"Ah... talk... talk to her?"

Before Ning Muqing could react, she was dragged along by Su Muwan, who was walking briskly.

"Qin Luo, I want to find a place where we can have fun, eat, and drink!"

"Yes, Miss Su."

Qin Luo smiled and followed.

Meanwhile.

[Detected T1 protagonist Ning Duanlang's mental state in turmoil, aura value -500!]

Enough, if it keeps dropping, he'll fall to T2.

Qin Luo shook his head with a wry smile. He'll deal with Ning Duanlang later.

It's worth noting that the techniques from Song Ming's martial arts are quite diverse.

One of them is a telepathic communication technique that allows one to converse in their mind.

A moment later.

In front of an arcade.

Flashy neon lights illuminated half the street.

Qin Luo and Su Muwan stood at the entrance, looking up in fascination.

Su Muwan blinked, then turned to Qin Luo and said, "Is this the biggest arcade in Wang City? I'm going to build one just like it in Jiang City!"

Qin Luo nodded upon hearing this. "Since Jiang City is under your control, Miss Su, I'll have Zhu Lan arrange for someone to build one just like it."

"Zhu Lan, oh right, how's she doing with the household duties?"

"She's handling it perfectly."

Ning Muqing stood beside them, feeling a bit lost. She looked at the bustling arcade and shyly lowered her head.

This was her first time here. When she was young, Auntie Qingyuan had once taken her past this place.

At that time, she had said that good children shouldn't enter such places.

Qin Luo checked some information online and then looked at Su Muwan, saying, "Miss Su, this arcade is owned by the Ye Family. Should we still go in?"

The Ye Family, he vaguely remembered hearing about them somewhere.

Generally, if he had any impression of them, it probably meant that Su Muwan had already gotten into trouble with them.

Su Muwan, however, thought it over in her mind and found that she hadn't yet caused any trouble with the Ye Family.

So!

Her eyes lit up. "Of course we're going in! I'm here to spend money, not to cause trouble!"
