Chapter 199: Staying the Night at An Yinuo's Home, Heart-to-Heart Talk Wipes Away Old Grievances

~7 min read 1,375 words

An Yinuo's inner thoughts were close to a scream.

【Oh my god! What does Song Mo mean by this? Could this be a signal that he's starting to accept me and Weiwei?】

【Was my answer just now not good enough? Damn it, An Yinuo, why did you suddenly chicken out at this moment?】

There were also Lin Weiwei's inner thoughts.

【Like, so what if I like him!】

【This is the first time in my life I've been so thoroughly rejected by a man! The people chasing me could line up all the way to France, yet here I am, following An Yinuo and becoming a simp dog】

Song Mo confirmed that An Yinuo and Lin Weiwei truly liked him, and was inwardly shocked. He had always assumed that An Yinuo and Lin Weiwei actually liked Chen Xi, and that their approach toward him was likely for some ulterior motive.

Perhaps they wanted to gain his trust, then stab him in the back, avenging Chen Xi.

But the miraculous ability of 【Telepathy】, which let Song Mo hear An Yinuo and Lin Weiwei's inner thoughts, thoroughly shattered that notion of his.

He discovered, to his astonishment.

That from the very beginning, An Yinuo and Lin Weiwei's purpose in approaching him had been very simple — they were simply after his body?

Song Mo's thoughts shifted.

He spoke again:

"But I already have Xia Yu and Xia Rou now, what should we do?"

An Yinuo, feeling even more hopeful, hurriedly jumped in to answer: "It's fine, Xia Yu and Xia Rou really are gentler than me in temperament, but I only want you, Song Mo — just you is enough."

"If you have other women, I can accept that too."

Lin Weiwei also nodded and said:

"I feel the same way as Yinuo."

Though she said as much, in her heart An Yinuo was scheming:

【Hehe, Xia Yu and Xia Rou will definitely get jealous. As long as Weiwei and I perform better than them, Song Mo will surely find being with us more comfortable】

【Who the official wife ends up being depends entirely on what the emperor wants — that's the essence of palace drama! Anyway, Weiwei and I haven't even entered the game yet. Once we're in, we won't be at a loss】

【A sure win, no risk!】

Lin Weiwei, on the other hand, was somewhat surprised.

Her expression was cool and aloof on the surface, but inside she had already begun to let her imagination run wild.

【What's happening! Does it really look promising?】

【What if Song Mo makes an outrageous request later? Do I agree right away, or hesitate a little before agreeing?】

After learning An Yinuo and Lin Weiwei's thoughts.

Song Mo was somewhat shocked.

Because he realized these two women seemed a bit love-brained, as if they were about to give themselves away for free.

But the guarded feeling in his heart gradually faded.

It seemed An Yinuo and Lin Weiwei truly bore him no ill will.

Song Mo suddenly felt like having a talk with An Yinuo and Lin Weiwei.

"I'll stay the night. There are some things I want to say to you both."

……

An Yinuo's bed was very large.

It could easily fit four or five people, but Song Mo still chose to sleep on the floor.

An Yinuo asked repeatedly:

"Song Mo, are you really not going to sleep on the bed?"

"If you're worried about men and women being different, we can fold a layer of blankets between us as a divider."

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Not even a dog would believe that.

Song Mo shook his head.

"Forget it, sleeping on the floor is fine. For someone who practices martial arts, it's no big deal."

An Yinuo had no choice but to drop it.

After the lights were turned off, the atmosphere gradually became somewhat delicate.

At this moment, none of the three people in the room had fallen asleep.

Of course, it was hard to fall asleep.

Their minds were in a state close to excitement.

Song Mo spoke first: "An Yinuo, there's actually something I've been wanting to ask you."

"That is, when did you start liking me? And tell me the specific details of what happened after I died in the previous life — I really want to know."

"Tell me the truth, I won't blame you."

An Yinuo was silent for a while.

Her inner thoughts were very rich.

Then she began to speak: "I think I already liked you a little in the previous life? But at that time I had just regained my consciousness, and you were already dead."

"I actually admired you quite a bit in the previous life. You were able to break out of the encirclement by the An Family and Lin Family, and even in a very short time rapidly expanded to nearly the same scale as the An Family and Lin Family — in my eyes that was incredible."

"By contrast, Chen Xi was really nothing worth mentioning. I don't even want to compare him to you. If Chen Xi didn't have that thing called a 'system,' I wouldn't have given him a second glance. I only helped him out of sympathy, like tossing a coin to a beggar."

Song Mo couldn't help but interject: "Chen Xi doesn't have a system in this life, but he shed a few tears, and didn't you immediately get worked up like some loyal dog ready to bite me?"

An Yinuo was choked by Song Mo's words.

Song Mo's words hit right on the mark.

They made An Yinuo so embarrassed she wished she could claw the bed apart with her toes and crawl inside to hide.

An Yinuo stammered out an explanation: "That's because I was deceived by him! Song Mo, you know too that Chen Xi has been putting on an act the whole time — he's just a scheming green-tea man. Back then I purely thought he was pitiful."

She began wallowing in self-pity, a sob creeping into her voice.

"Song Mo, I know you've always held a grudge about this, but I really don't have any romantic feelings for Chen Xi. I was just too stupid back then — I thought I was like some kind of justice messenger, wanting to stand up for others, but I didn't even get the whole story straight."

"Being tricked by Chen Xi like a fool — I saw him shedding tears and looking so pitiful, so I really thought he'd suffered a huge injustice. Then I connected it to those campus-bullying TV dramas and got really angry…"

Song Mo secretly listened in on An Yinuo's inner thoughts.

Learning that she truly had this idea, he realized she really was that stupid…

Song Mo spoke bluntly.

"Then you really are plenty stupid — to a bad guy, a fool is simply the best accomplice."

An Yinuo nodded rapidly.

"Right, right, right, Song Mo, I'm stupid, I'm a big dumb pig…"

"Pfft—"

Lin Weiwei, who had been silent at the side, couldn't help but snort with laughter.

"Weiwei! What are you laughing at!"

An Yinuo, embarrassed into anger, went to hit her, but Lin Weiwei dodged.

Then Lin Weiwei completely lost it and burst into loud laughter.

Laughing until she couldn't breathe, she took out her phone.

She tapped to play a recording, and An Yinuo's voice rang out.

"Right, right, right, Song Mo, I'm stupid, I'm a big dumb pig…"

Song Mo also couldn't help but laugh.

An Yinuo, meanwhile, completely shut down.

She gathered her momentum, ready to snatch Lin Weiwei's phone.

But Song Mo's renewed questioning made her stop in her tracks.

"Alright. An Yinuo, since you've awakened your past-life memories, tell me properly — after I died in the previous life, what exactly happened? How did Song Wanrou and Leng Wanqiu react…"

There was something odd about Song Mo's tone.

An Yinuo could hear the suppressed emotion beneath his flat voice.

She knew that, compared to herself and Lin Weiwei, it was the backstabs from Song Wanrou and Leng Wanqiu that had chilled Song Mo's heart the most.

An Yinuo opened her mouth and told Song Mo truthfully.

"After you died…"
