When Su Mo came to her senses, she found herself in an extremely spacious and brightly lit room.
The room is exquisitely furnished, complete with a sandalwood desk, a rosewood screen, and a carved tea table, exuding an elegant and antique charm.
The air was filled with a faint sandalwood scent, which calmed the mind.
A large daybed sits by the window, with a brocade quilt embroidered with gold thread neatly folded. Outside the window is a garden in the darkness of night, with lights reflecting the swaying bamboo shadows, like a tranquil ink painting.
As Su Mo looked around, Leng Yaozhu's magnetic voice rang out, "This is my room. You can contact Yu Lai now without worry."
"Ok!"
Su Mo nodded, and then dialed Leng Yulai's number under Leng Yaozhu's gaze.
"..."
Seeing Su Mo take out his soul-guided communicator and start dialing numbers, Leng Yaozhu's face flashed with suspicion, "Su Mo, is this how you usually contact Yu Lai?"
Before Su Mo took out the soul-guided communicator, Leng Yaozhu had imagined countless ways for Su Mo and Leng Yulai to contact each other, but she never expected it to be so simple and unpretentious.
"Otherwise, how can we contact each other?"
Su Mo retorted irritably.
Leng Yaozhu was speechless for a while before finally speaking, "Aren't you afraid of being wiretapped by the Federation?"
Su Mo was speechless. "Uh... with so many people and so many numbers in the Federation, how could it possibly be able to eavesdrop on them all?"
"If the federal government really had this capability, the Holy Spirit Cult would have been completely wiped out from the Douluo Continent long ago."
"makes sense!"
Leng Yaozhu nodded in agreement, then looked nervously at Leng Yulai's soul communicator, which was making a call.
The thought that after so many years, she would finally be able to contact her sister made Leng Yaozhu extremely nervous.
Leng Yaozhu could swear to heaven that she had never been this nervous, not even when she broke through to the Limit Douluo level.
Holy Spirit Cult Headquarters
Leng Yulai hid in her room, chuckling to herself as she watched clips of today's live stream over and over again.
"My Lord, my sweet and soft Lord!"
Looking at Su Mo in the slice, Leng Yulai's face flushed, her breathing became heavy, and her eyes were filled with a morbid infatuation. Her legs unconsciously began to rub together.
Just as Leng Yulai was about to take off, the sudden appearance of the image made her very unhappy.
But when Leng Yulai saw the name "Leng Yaozhu" in the notes, her expression immediately changed 180 degrees, becoming extremely solemn and serious.
After composing herself and her clothes, Leng Yulai pressed the answer button and said softly, "Su Mo, what's wrong with you calling me so late?"
Hearing that Leng Yulai didn't address him as "Lord," Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Mo was genuinely afraid that the moment he answered the phone, Leng Yulai would suddenly call him "Lord".
In that case, I'll find a way to drag Leng Yaozhu into this mess.
Leng Yaozhu is Leng Yulai's only blood relative in this world, and Su Mo does not want to drag Leng Yaozhu into this mess if possible.
Therefore, in order to deal with Leng Yaozhu, Su Mo specially prepared two phone numbers.
One number is the one I usually use to communicate with Leng Yulai, and the other is a number I prepared specifically for this situation.
Su Mo and Leng Yulai made a deal: once he dialed the number saved as "Leng Yaozhu," it meant that Leng Yaozhu was by his side, and Leng Yulai would have to play along.
When she heard the voice she had longed for day and night come from the soul communicator, Leng Yaozhu could no longer sit still. She snatched the soul communicator from Su Mo's hand, her eyes red and choked with sobs, "Yu Lai, it's me!"
"How have you been these past few years?"
"..."
Leng Yulai didn't answer immediately. After a long silence, she said self-deprecatingly, "I've become an evil soul master, how good can it be!"
"Yu Lai~"
Hearing Leng Yulai's seemingly self-destructive tone, Leng Yaozhu felt as if her heart was being torn apart, and the pain made it hard to breathe.
She now deeply regrets ever falling in love with Yun Ming. If she hadn't fallen for Yun Ming, Leng Yulai wouldn't have left in a huff, and she certainly wouldn't have fallen into the life of an evil soul master.
"I'm sorry, Yu Lai, it's my fault!"
"As long as you come back, I'll do anything you can for me!"
Leng Yaozhu held back the tears welling up in her eyes, trying to persuade Leng Yulai to turn back from her wrong path.
Hearing Leng Yaozhu's sincere voice, Leng Yulai hesitated for a moment, torn between following her plan and Su Mo's.
According to Su Mo's plan, she only needed to tell Leng Yaozhu that Su Mo was her adopted son, and ask Leng Yaozhu to help take care of Su Mo on a daily basis.
But seeing the increasing number of girls surrounding Su Mo, Leng Yulai felt a sense of crisis.
She needs to bring in someone to enhance her competitiveness, so that she can stand out from the crowd of competitors.
Leng Yaozhu, who shares the same mother, is undoubtedly the best choice.
No man could resist two beautiful sisters, especially powerful women like them.
But now, hearing Leng Yaozhu's remorseful tone, Leng Yulai's heart wavered.
"I'm so sorry, sister!"
After careful consideration, Leng Yulai ultimately chose Su Mo.
After silently apologizing to Leng Yaozhu, Leng Yulai said in a low voice, "Sister, I can't go back!"
"Yu Lai!!!"
Leng Yulai's words "sister" were like a bombshell, completely shattering Leng Yaozhu's last line of defense, and she burst into tears.
"???"
Su Mo stared wide-eyed in disbelief upon hearing Leng Yulai's answer.
Leng Yulai's answer was completely different from the script he had given her.
But Su Mo had no choice but to watch Leng Yulai perform.
After what seemed like an eternity, Leng Yulai finally stopped crying, her eyes still red and brimming with despair, and asked, "Yulai, is there really no other way?"
"Sister, it's okay, I've already found the happiness I wanted."
Leng Yaozhu's mouth widened in disbelief upon hearing this, and after a long while, she slowly said, "Happiness! Yu Lai, do you mean you have someone you like?"
"Ok!"
Leng Yulai nodded.
Hearing Leng Yulai admit it herself, Leng Yaozhu was immediately shocked. She then tentatively asked in a low voice, "Then Yun Ming..."
Leng Yulai was secretly pleased to hear this, but then pretended to be displeased and said, "Leng Yaozhu, I've told you so many times, I really don't like that guy. Can you please stop mentioning him in front of me?"
Seeing Leng Yulai, who turned hostile at the mere mention of Yun Ming, Leng Yaozhu was dumbfounded.
When the news of Leng Yulai's crush on Yun Ming first spread, Leng Yaozhu went to Leng Yulai to inquire about the situation.
Leng Yulai's reaction was the same as it is now, except that back then Leng Yaozhu thought Leng Yulai was embarrassed or angry.
It now seems that Leng Yulai truly dislikes Yun Ming.
There was just one thing Leng Yaozhu couldn't understand: if Leng Yulai didn't like Yun Ming back then, how did the rumor that Leng Yulai had a crush on Yun Ming spread?
Suddenly, an incredibly terrifying thought surfaced in Leng Yaozhu's mind: perhaps the story of Leng Yulai's crush on Yun Ming was orchestrated by Shrek Academy itself.
Having managed to secure her position as the deputy tower master of the Spirit Pagoda, Leng Yaozhu had witnessed far too many unsightly things along the way.
It was precisely because she witnessed the wickedness of human nature that Leng Yaozhu missed the time she spent studying at Shrek Academy so much.
Leng Yaozhu took a deep breath. "Yu Lai, this matter is of great importance, and I need to confirm it with you again!"
"Did you really not like Yun Ming back then?"
"Why is it like this again? I've explained it so many times, I've never liked that arrogant jerk!"
"Leng Yaozhu, how many times do I have to explain this to you?!"
Hearing Leng Yulai's frantic voice, Leng Yaozhu felt a chill run down her spine, and an unknown anger surged within her.
Leng Yaozhu understands now.
Leng Yulai didn't leave in a huff because she saw me confessing my feelings to Yun Ming, but rather to fulfill my own wish and get rid of the rumor.
The thought of Leng Yulai falling into evil spirit mastery because of a rumor spread by Shrek Academy made Leng Yaozhu want to die.
Chapter 159 Son-in-law Becomes Brother-in-law!
Although there is currently no evidence to prove that the rumor that Leng Yulai had a crush on Yun Ming was spread by Shrek Academy.
However, the Leng family is second only to the ancient families in the Spirit Pagoda, and not just anyone dares to provoke them, let alone blatantly spread rumors.
Aside from Shrek, who benefited from this, Leng Yaozhu couldn't think of anyone else who would be so audacious.
Leng Yaozhu clearly remembered that after this incident spread, many talented young men from the Spirit Pagoda who secretly admired and loved the two sisters went to Shrek Academy to challenge Yun Ming.
As a result, they all became stepping stones for Yun Ming, and Yun Ming's reputation in the Federation rose to a new level.
Of course, compared to Shrek, Leng Yaozhu wished she could slap herself a few times more.
If it weren't for her arrogance and refusal to believe Leng Yulai's explanation...
She naively assumed that Leng Yulai liked Yun Ming as much as she did, and that Leng Yulai would never leave in a huff.
If Leng Yulai hadn't left the Spirit Pagoda, how could she have fallen into becoming an evil soul master?
While Shrek Academy is guilty of turning Leng Yulai into an evil soul master, she is also implicated.
"I'm sorry... Yu Lai."
Leng Yaozhu bit her lip, her voice trembling with sobs, "I'm so sorry, it's my sister who hurt you."
"..."
Hearing Leng Yaozhu's guilty words, Leng Yulai almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. She then lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "It's okay, sister."
"I don't blame you, we're sisters after all."
“Yu Lai…”
