Chapter 196: Female Competition

Song Mo opened the System Mall.

He searched for keywords like "ghost exorcism," and the System Interface quickly pushed a pile of things.

Tools category: Hundred-Year Peach Wood Sword, Thousand-Year Peach Wood Sword, Thousand-Year Lightning-Struck Wood Sword, Lightning-Struck Talisman Paper, Dao Fire Talisman Paper…

Books category: True Explanation of Longhu Mountain Cultivation, Maoshan Secret Record, Manual of Corpse Driving, Ghost Exorcism Secret Method…

After checking the prices, Song Mo locked his gaze on two items.

One was the Thousand-Year Lightning-Struck Wood Sword, priced at three million Prestige Value;

the other was the True Explanation of Longhu Mountain Cultivation (Basic Volume), priced at one million Prestige Value.

Song Mo chose to purchase them directly.

Then he spent another five hundred thousand Prestige Value to buy five Amulets.

Song Mo explained again: "The karmic ties between An Yinuo, Lin Weiwei, and me go back a very long time. You don't know about these things, and I have reasons I can't easily tell you."

"But when his passion eventually fades and he realizes I'm actually better for him, and that life with us is more comfortable, who do you think Song Mo will choose? And who will truly be Song Mo's girlfriend?"

"But it seems Song Mo still hasn't accepted us? Yinuo, sometimes I really feel tired. I almost want to give up."

"'Open scheme'—when such a highbrow term popped out of An Yinuo's pink, tender mouth, Lin Weiwei inexplicably found it a little funny.

After all, the video Xiao Zhang the guard sent was truly too bizarre, and combined with the ghost-exorcising items in the System Mall, it proved that ghosts really do exist in this world.

"You only know how to criticize me! Then let me ask you—are you willing to give it away for free?"

An Yinuo turned from embarrassment into anger.

An Yinuo snorted: "Then isn't that enough?"

But Song Mo thought again.

"Body given, family fortune given, heart given, and in the end you got nothing yourself? Even an Innate Love-Brain Holy Body wouldn't be as extreme as you!"

She wanted to see how An Yinuo planned to argue her way out!

"Lin Weiwei, let me tell you, I'm plenty sharp!"

Song Mo learned that ghosts, as a kind of spiritual entity, could actually be influenced and attacked by his Telekinesis, and his Internal Energy could also hurt them.

"Let's just lie flat together, us sisters."

"Our conditions are pretty good, right! We have money, we have looks, and we care for Song Mo like simp dogs, attending to every need."

"But Xia Yu, Xia Rou, I hope you remember—you are my first love."

This was one of several dozen properties belonging to An Yinuo.

The An Yinuo before her gave off a strong "dog-headed military strategist" vibe.

"If I hadn't been quick-witted and argued my case, today we'd have been swept out the door by Song Mo, and there'd never be another chance."

Even if Chen Xi really turned into a Fierce Ghost and came for revenge, it would only mean dying one more time.

Not only himself, but the safety of his family had to be looked after too—he had to prevent his home base from being raided.

Lin Weiwei frowned slightly.

"This Amulet must be kept safe. Even when you bathe, don't take it off. This is very important, understand?"

"Pathetic!" An Yinuo glared at Lin Weiwei. "Do you even know what you're saying? Weiwei. You're losing nerve before the battle has even begun!"

"Look at what you're saying! What do you mean 'just letting Song Mo have some fun'?"

"Weiwei, I'll tell you right now—my brilliance!"

An Yinuo then continued: "On the surface it looks like giving it away for free, but in reality it's a comparison—comparing ourselves with Song Mo's two girlfriends."

Lin Weiwei said helplessly: "Yinuo, but you've given it away for free way too thoroughly."

Song Mo walked out of the room, his expression grave, handed two Amulets to Xia Yu and Xia Rou, and said solemnly:

An Yinuo's cheeks turned red.

An Yinuo and Lin Weiwei returned to An Yinuo's home together.

"So you also know we're basically no different from simp dogs?"

"Forgive my dullness—I only saw 'giving it away for free'!"

"I'm not a love-brain at all!"

Thinking about it,

Lin Weiwei said helplessly: "I'm willing, happy now?"

It was a little nest she had carefully tidied up.

Lin Weiwei couldn't help but roast.

He couldn't afford to be careless.

If he used the Thousand-Year Lightning-Struck Wood Sword as a medium and channeled Internal Energy into it, he could easily gravely wound a Fierce Ghost.

"And she even said that even if she had kids, she wouldn't let Song Mo worry, and would even use the An Family's resources to support him in starting a business."

Lin Weiwei laughed.

"I'd love to hear the details. Please, Miss An, go on."

"We don't fight, we don't compete, we don't even ask for responsibility. If Song Mo has a good time, could he really not feel anything? The more we don't compete, the more he keeps talking tough on the surface, but inside he'll definitely feel for us."

"Please continue." Lin Weiwei made a "go ahead" gesture.

"You see, we're this good to Song Mo, and our conditions are better than his two girlfriends'. Right now Song Mo is still in the early love-brain phase of a new relationship, especially doting on Xia Yu and Xia Rou."

It wasn't that she had any objection to An Yinuo's approach—she just felt it was too humble. Would she really be happy in the future?

Song Mo gripped both their hands firmly, then immediately left Hua Yuan Xiao Yuan.

Seeing Song Mo's dead-serious manner, Xia Yu and Xia Rou nodded.

By querying the system,

"Lin Weiwei! Don't interrupt me while I'm speaking!"

An Yinuo seemed to have already sorted out her thoughts, and began to explain to Lin Weiwei in detail:

"Weiwei, as the ancients said, 'Winning hearts is supreme; storming cities is inferior.' My behavior may look like a freebie, and it may seem like it doesn't cost Song Mo anything at all—simply letting him play for free. But in fact, I have deeper considerations behind it."

After making the preparations, Song Mo finally breathed a small sigh of relief inside.

"As long as you haven't grown tired of me, I will never let go."

Song Mo prepared to give them separately to Xia Yu and Xia Rou, as well as to his parents and Song Wanrou.

"Ahem." An Yinuo cleared her throat and said seriously, "Actually, I had already taken this into consideration. On the surface it looks like a freebie, but in reality it's an open scheme!"

Lin Weiwei put on a look of humbly seeking instruction.

An Yinuo's face flushed red.

"Weiwei, how about it? Wasn't my performance today pretty good?"

"Besides, who says the two of us don't have a chance?"

"Although Song Mo didn't agree today, did you notice that he actually didn't refuse either?"

……

"Hmph! Men—they're all like that, aren't they!"

Xia Yu and Xia Rou took Song Mo's hand.

"Think about it—me, An Yinuo! You, Lin Weiwei!"

At this moment,

serving as the "secret base" for her and Lin Weiwei.

He was preparing to head to the Song Family to deliver the Amulet to Father Song, Mother Song, and Song Wanrou.

An Yinuo's face was full of smug, self-satisfied expression.

"An Yinuo, then tell me—where is your shrewdness? Where is your scheming?"

"At this time Xia Yu and Xia Rou are still jealous, and sometimes they might even blame Song Mo—wouldn't that just put pressure on Song Mo?"

"The difference is clear at a glance, and it proves that we are the better companions."
