70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 400: Ignored...

The intense pain in her arm instantly changed Yun Luo’s expression. She had practiced martial arts, albeit mostly for show, but she still had some self-defense skills.

She hadn’t expected Xu Mumu to actually be a martial artist. Moreover, her voice was quite loud earlier, drawing the attention of the people around them.

Now that Xu Mumu had subdued her in front of so many people, she didn’t want to cry out in pain. It would be too humiliating.

"Let go," Yun Luo gritted her teeth and glared at Xu Mumu.

"This is not your home nor a place for you to run wild," Xu Mumu released Yun Luo’s hand disdainfully and gave her a dismissive glance. Yin Yang really is something, attracting such troublesome suitors.

Unable to focus on her reading anymore, Xu Mumu, who disliked being the center of attention, borrowed the books she wanted and left the library.

Yun Luo followed, but kept a cautious distance from Xu Mumu.

Xu Mumu found an empty classroom near where Yin Yang’s class was. Yin Yang was still in class, so she couldn’t very well walk in with books in hand.

The classroom was empty. Xu Mumu took a seat, and Yun Luo followed, a hint of joy in her eyes.

"What exactly do you want?" Xu Mumu looked at Yun Luo, annoyed. With her here, there was no way she could concentrate on her reading. This girl was really such a nuisance.

"Following you lets me see Brother Yin Yang," Yun Luo didn’t like Xu Mumu either, but there was no other way; only by following Xu Mumu could she find Yin Yang.

Yun Luo secretly touched her wrist, which still hurt. This woman’s strength was tremendous.

Since arriving in the Imperial City, Yun Luo knew Xu Mumu liked the library. She had staked it out for two days just to see Xu Mumu, so there was no way she was letting her go easily now.

However, she hadn’t subdued Xu Mumu and was instead subdued by her, which was extremely embarrassing.

If they were in Lan City, she’d surely have chased Xu Mumu away regardless, but here in the Imperial City, the Yun Family, though large, was constantly under scrutiny and had to be very cautious. The events of over ten years ago had severely weakened the Yun Family.

No matter how big, the Yun Family wouldn’t dare directly confront the state.

The Yun Family lacked the boldness of Yin Yang’s grandfather in the past. While their status in Lan City was still decent, their enterprises had long been restricted and there was simply no way to enter into the system.

So, in reality, the Yun Family was already in decline, only daring to flaunt in Lan City.

"Miss Yun, you’re already engaged and should be getting married soon," Xu Mumu stated matter-of-factly.

"What business is it of yours?" Mentioning this made Yun Luo’s face contort slightly. It was all because of Xu Mumu’s interference. She must have badmouthed her to Yin Yang, making him dislike her.

But knowing Xu Mumu’s martial prowess now deterred Yun Luo from going too far.

Mrs. Zhang had spoken of Xu Mumu’s abilities before, but Yun Luo hadn’t paid any attention back then. Today’s events really gave her a clear understanding; reality had taught her a lesson.

"The person you’re looking for is my boyfriend," Xu Mumu looked at Yun Luo calmly, all the resentment in Yun Luo’s eyes visible to her.

Feelings couldn’t be forced, yet as the eldest daughter of the Yun Family, Yun Luo had been spoiled since childhood, becoming very self-centered.

Even if Yin Yang didn’t like her, she still wanted to use any means necessary to win him over.

"Brother Yin Yang and I are well-matched in social status. He could never like a country girl like you, you’re so crude," Yun Luo huffed angrily at Xu Mumu, trying to make her retreat in defeat.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to make Xu Mumu feel inadequate.

"Well, that’s a shame. Yin Yang just likes someone like me, and as for you, he only feels repulsed," Xu Mumu touched her face, speaking somewhat narcissistically.

Yun Luo was furious. How could someone be so shameless, without an ounce of refinement? She couldn’t understand what Yin Yang saw in her, given Xu Mumu lacked the elegance she believed she had.

Deciding not to engage with Xu Mumu further, Yun Luo found a spot to sit down, calmly waiting for Yin Yang.

Having successfully irked Yun Luo, the classroom finally quieted down.

Only then did Xu Mumu pick up her book and start reading, finding the adage "there’s a house of gold in books, there’s a face of jade in books" to be so true. The content was genuinely fascinating.

Watching Xu Mumu scan through the documents, Yun Luo was bored. She wanted to mess with Xu Mumu but didn’t dare to; what Xu Mumu displayed at the library was enough to make her hesitate.

Xu Mumu was engrossed in her book, finding time passing quickly. Before she knew it, it was time for the class to end. She massaged her wrist, having made copious notes, leaving her wrist sore.

The books were from the library, so she could only borrow them and not take them home, needing to refer to them as needed, so she had to jot down notes for future use.

Having a clearer understanding now of improving those laboratory instruments, Xu Mumu was more determined.

She was quite interested in improving these instruments and planned to pursue this path further to develop more useful items in the future.

Having good equipment made a significant difference in experiments, and Xu Mumu found it particularly meaningful to work on this, knowing it could be profitable if successful, sparking her interest.

Yun Luo didn’t know these things; she just found them dull. Finally, as the class ended, seeing Xu Mumu packing her books, Yun Luo quickly gathered her mirror and makeup, ready to follow Xu Mumu.

Unexpectedly, Xu Mumu stood up and headed straight to the adjacent classroom. Sure enough, Yin Yang’s class was right next door.

Standing at the classroom door with her books, the people there already knew Xu Mumu, and without her saying anything, someone informed Yin Yang of her presence.

"Yin Yang, your girlfriend is here for you."

Xu Mumu’s lips twitched, while following behind, Yun Luo felt discomfort. How she wished they uttered her name, wishing to pair her name with Yin Yang’s.

Yin Yang saw Xu Mumu too, a smile crossing his face as he put down his book and came out.

Yin Yang’s eyes were entirely on Xu Mumu, not even noticing Yun Luo.

Yun Luo was so jealous she wanted to lash out. She had gone to great lengths to come and see Yin Yang, but at that moment, Yin Yang completely ignored her, overlooking her entirely.

"Mumu, weren’t you reading at the library? Why did you come over?" Yin Yang took the books from Xu Mumu’s arms, ready to lead her into the classroom.

"Brother Yin Yang," a gentle voice called from behind. It was a voice Yin Yang knew all too well, reflexively frowning.
