Villain: Young Lady, You Must Want Revenge Too - Chapter 38:
Chapter 38: Duan Weiwei’s Little Thoughts!
“Qiuqiu, is Mo Cinian really that amazing? I mean… in that way, hehe.”
“Do you think he has an eight-pack?”
“I heard a lot of people call him Master Mo? Can you tell us what his family actually does?”
Faced with her two roommates’ bombardment of questions, Lin Qingqiu felt a headache coming on. She had originally planned to secretly play matchmaker between Mo Cinian and Duan Weiwei, but now… with Duan Weiwei knowing she and Mo Cinian were close, the mission’s difficulty had skyrocketed.
Take this girl for instance — she was clearly distracted now.
Su Momo and Liu Xiaoqian didn’t understand why, but Lin Qingqiu, of course, did.
That damn Mo Cinian, a heart-arsonist!
“Ahem, no, you’re mistaken. Mo Cinian and I aren’t in that kind of relationship. Actually, he’s my distant cousin. You know about the sponsorship thing, right? I’m the granddaughter of the late Lin family’s patriarch from City A. After my grandfather passed away recently, all sponsorships that used to come under the Lin family’s name have been handed over to him.”
Lin Qingqiu lied effortlessly, sounding utterly natural. Her face was calm, showing no signs of dishonesty.
Even Su Momo was stunned.
“What the hell????”
“Qiuqiu, didn’t Mo Cinian chase after you for a while? How did he suddenly become your distant cousin?”
“Exactly! Is there some juicy secret here??”
Su Momo was the most excited, already imagining a million-word webnovel in her mind: a young girl with her hands tied behind her back, innocent and helpless eyes staring at a man with a hint of obsession…
“Stop fantasizing, seriously.” Lin Qingqiu slapped Su Momo on the forehead. This girl just loved cooking up wild tales.
“Ouch~”
Su Momo winced, holding her head and staring at Lin Qingqiu.
Although Lin Qingqiu was joking around with them, her attention was secretly on Duan Weiwei in the corner.
From the moment she said Mo Cinian was her distant cousin, she noticed Duan Weiwei seemed to relax a little.
There was hope!
This pure girl probably already liked Mo Cinian. And with her nature, she’d never be a third party. To drag her into this trap, Lin Qingqiu had to play it ruthless.
So far, the results looked promising — the silly girl seemed to have believed her story.
“Qiuqiu, but before…”
Su Momo hesitated, recalling how odd Lin Qingqiu seemed when she returned to the dorm that one day.
“Ugh, that was me acting. You actually believed it?”
Lin Qingqiu shrugged carelessly.
Su Momo stood there dumbfounded, her brain struggling to process, and then… mental crash.
She felt like something was off but couldn’t pinpoint exactly what.
Lin Qingqiu glanced at Duan Weiwei from the corner of her eye, feeling completely in control.
She was actually quite curious — once a pure and innocent girl like Duan Weiwei fell into Mo Cinian’s clutches, would even her bones be left?
“Qiuqiu, so if that’s the case, Mo Cinian must be pretty old, right? An uncle generation… he must be in his thirties or forties, huh? Isn’t that too old?”
Liu Xiaoqian frowned, “I don’t like old men. I prefer young, handsome guys with a sense of strength, the kind who could destroy your boyfriend~”
“Yeah, he’s an old man who likes young girls!”
Talking about Mo Cinian made Lin Qingqiu a little grumpy.
…
“Achoo!”
Mo Cinian suddenly sneezed and frowned slightly.
“Who’s cursing me? Could it be Ye Chen?”
He rubbed his nose and turned to Chen Jiu, “What’s Ye Chen doing now?”
“Young Master, he’s on the highway… still having diarrhea while running, got reported by passersby, and was just stopped by highway patrol.”
“Didn’t expect that. Ye Chen’s become a performance artist!”
Mo Cinian chuckled. He already guessed what happened — trying to harm others only to end up harming himself.
…
“Old man going after young girls?”
“Yeah, apparently he’s been obsessed with a girl these days — someone from his company, I heard!”
Lin Qingqiu said it casually, but the Black Lotus had already started setting traps for the budding White Lotus.
“What? An employee and a domineering CEO? My god~ That’s like a real-life Mary Sue romance novel plot!”
Liu Xiaoqian was stunned.
Of course, Lin Qingqiu said this deliberately.
Sure enough, Duan Weiwei trembled slightly when she heard it and immediately lowered her head.
One sentence was enough to throw the girl’s mind into chaos.
Her expression was tense, and she kept stealing glances at Lin Qingqiu.
“Weiwei, what’s wrong?”
Lin Qingqiu teased her deliberately, her eyes sparkling with mischief.
“No… nothing!”
Su Momo and Liu Xiaoqian also noticed Duan Weiwei’s strange behavior.
“Weiwei, why do you look so absent-minded? Didn’t you work at Moonlight before? Could it be… you’re the one the boss likes?”
Liu Xiaoqian joked.
“No, no, I’m just a small employee. How could I ever meet someone like the big boss?”
The girl waved her hands frantically.
“True enough.” Liu Xiaoqian and Su Momo didn’t think much more of it.
But then they turned their gossip-filled eyes back to Lin Qingqiu.
“Qiuqiu, so… what’s it like dating your distant cousin? Is it exciting? A little taboo, maybe?”
“Tsk tsk tsk~”
Lin Qingqiu only felt her head ache even more.
She didn’t want to say a word now.
But at this point, Duan Weiwei’s thoughts were a complete mess.
Girls tended to overthink, especially love-struck ones!
With Lin Qingqiu’s subtle hints, it wasn’t hard for her to imagine the situation.
Could it be… that the girl Boss Mo liked was her?
