Chapter 208: 208 I Make the Decisions (Part 4)
"The address ’ninth sister’ is exclusive to Zheng Chuyi."
"How can we let a commoner sully it?"
"A lowly commoner, how can they possibly be compared to Zheng Chuyi?"
"We people of the Superpower World are born superior, those in the secular world are but fit to serve as our slaves and maids, we never intermarry with those of inferior bloodlines."
"Commoner?" Mo Zhixuan slightly curled his lips, emitting a dangerous aura from his entire being, speaking coldly, "Jia Zhuo, have you forgotten your own roots? Have you also forgotten the roots of the Superpower World?"
Feeling an endless oppressive force engulfing him, Jia Zhuo turned pale, offering a sowhat powerless explanation, "Ninth brother, that’s not what I an..."
Jia Zhuo’s face looked extrely bad, bearing a pain unimaginable to ordinary people, as if uttering another word would tear him apart.
"Jia Zhuo, you’re a smart man, let’s not have this kind of talk in the future." Mo Zhixuan relaxed his brows, slowly retracting the overwhelming pressure.
Feeling the pain receding like the tide, Jia Zhuo let out a sigh of relief, simultaneously feeling fortunate that the ninth brother was still the sa ninth brother from before, his cultivation had not only not been wasted but had advanced by several levels.
"Ninth brother, I just think that commoner, that girl, she’s not worthy of you."
Mo Zhixuan looked up at Jia Zhuo, speaking slowly, "Whether she’s worthy or not, I’ll be the judge."
Those nine icy words fell with a finality.
"What about sister Chuyi? Ninth brother, you’re being unfair to sister Chuyi, she has waited for you for so many years, and she even ca to the secular world personally for you, she’s made so many compromises, can’t you forgive her?"
Jia Zhuo reflexively felt injustice on behalf of Zheng Chuyi.
Zheng Chuyi was such a proud person, she used to disdain giving the secular world a second glance, but now for Mo Zhixuan, she actually ca to this world in person, she has made such a big sacrifice.
The beauty number one of the Superpower World has done so much, could she really not compare to a commoner with inferior bloodline?
"My relationship with her ended back in the Superpower World, the only reason I can accept her staying here is out of consideration for Zilong’s feelings, my relationship with her is purely fraternal, nothing more, Jia Zhuo, I hope you understand this,"
"But..."
Jia Zhuo was about to say more but was hastily interrupted by Mo Zhixuan, "That’s enough, so things are better left unsaid, Jia Zhuo, you’re a clever person, you should understand."
With that, Mo Zhixuan turned and strode away.
Jia Zhuo had no choice but to follow behind, silent.
At this mont, the guests in the living room had already moved to the banquet hall.
This place is where the Mo family entertains honored guests.
The Old Mada of the Mo family and Aunt Tong took their places at the head of the room.
The seat to the right hand of Chu Jin was empty, to her left was Mo Qingyi, and next to Mo Qingyi sat Duanmu Zhe, and then Zhou Xunian.
The Old Mada of the Mo family glanced over the people sitting around the table and turned to Aunt Lan beside her, "Aunt Lan, why isn’t Miss Zheng here? Didn’t you inform her?"
"I went to inform her first thing in the morning," Aunt Lan replied, "Perhaps Miss Zheng is held up by sothing, let
go call her again."
The Old Mada of the Mo family nodded, "Go ahead."
How could they miss Zheng Chuyi on such an important occasion?
Doesn’t she pride herself as the number one beauty of the Superpower World, of the Bloodline of Fire Bathing?
To think she believed that Xuan’er truly could not live without her!
Today, she will let her know that there are people a thousand tis better than her in this world!
An array of delicate dishes were served at the table, instantly diffusing a tempting aroma that whetted the appetite.

Elsewhere, in the room of Zheng Chuyi, a lodious tune occasionally poured from her fingertips, enchanting to the ear.
Aunt Lan approached the door, knocking very politely, "Miss Zheng, are you in there?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Chuyi’s fingers paused on the strings of her instrunt, her expression lighting up with joy, "I am."
"Miss Zheng, the banquet in the front hall is about to begin, the Old Mada sent
to invite you over."
Having received benefits from Zheng Chuyi in the past, Aunt Lan’s attitude towards her at this mont was one of utmost respect and reverence.
"Aunt Lan," Zheng Chuyi frowned slightly, "Did you co by yourself?"
Although puzzled by Zheng Chuyi’s question, Aunt Lan answered very politely, "Yes, Miss Zheng, it’s just ."
After speaking, Aunt Lan added, "Miss Zheng, are you prepared? We shouldn’t keep the Old Mada waiting."
Upon hearing this, the joy in Zheng Chuyi’s brows began to fade bit by bit.
Why did only Aunt Lan co here?
She had been ready a long ti ago, she was intentionally delaying to avoid going to the banquet hall, with the intention of making the Mo family’s old madam send soone to fetch her.
After all, only in this way could she highlight her importance.
She had thought that at the very least, the Mo family’s old madam would send Mo Zhixuan himself to fetch her, but unexpectedly, the old madam had just sent a minor servant.
Do they really think she’s so easy to send away?
In any case, she is of the Bloodline of Fire Bathing, the woman of destiny, without her, Mo Zhixuan wouldn’t be able to survive.
It seems that the Mo family’s old madam has really beco senile!
Seeing that there was still no movent inside, Aunt Lan couldn’t help but ask again, "Miss Zheng, are you ready? Otherwise, the old madam might get angry."
Angry, angry!
Now, the one who should be angry is !
This old hag from the Mo family, when she wants to kick
out, she kicks
out, when she wants
back, she just calls
back!
Do they really think I’m made of clay?
That they can manipulate
as they wish?
I am the protagonist of today’s banquet, and she dares to slight
like this!
Then I just won’t go!
Let’s see how this banquet fares without its protagonist, without the future lady master of the Mo family, the old hag will have to see who can hold the fort!
"Oh, Aunt Lan, you go back first, I’m suddenly feeling a little unwell, so I won’t accompany you," she said.
"Not feeling well? Miss Zheng, do you need
to get Doctor Li to co and take a look?" Aunt Lan asked.
"No need," Zheng Chuyi said with a slight curl of her lips and a soft voice, "Aunt Lan, just tell Aunt Mo I’m not feeling well, that’s enough."
"Alright, Miss Zheng, then I’ll be going, take care of yourself."
Zheng Chuyi listened to the footsteps receding into the distance, her fingertips lightly plucking, and instantly, heavenly music reverberated from her fingers.
She just didn’t believe that the old hag wouldn’t co to invite her personally!

The banquet hall.
After hearing Aunt Lan’s report, the old Mo family madam slightly frowned, "Not feeling well?"
"Yes, Miss Zheng said she is not feeling well, so she won’t be coming, old madam, do you want
to check on Miss Zheng again in a while to see if she is feeling better?"
The old Mo family madam snorted coldly, "Never mind, no need, let’s start the feast when Zhixuan and the others arrive." Either way, she’s soone who can’t be shown in public, a nuisance if present, better if not here.
"Alright, then should we have Doctor Li go take a look at Miss Zheng?" Aunt Lan continued.
The old Mo family madam waved her hand, "No trouble, she won’t die."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Lan respectfully bowed and withdrew.
But she was puzzled, wondering why the old madam suddenly had such a change of heart towards Miss Zheng.
"Sister, who were you just talking about?" Aunt Tong curiously asked.
The old Mo family madam spat out three words with disgust, "Zheng Chuyi."
"Her?" Aunt Tong was visibly surprised, "She ca as well? Is she living here now?"
The old Mo family madam nodded.
"Sister, you’ve really beco senile," Aunt Tong said discontentedly, "Have you forgotten the events of the past? How could you let such a person move into the Mo family’s ho!"
The old Mo family madam lowered her voice, "Now is not the ti to talk about this, I’ll explain it to you after the banquet."
"Fine," Aunt Tong nodded slightly, dropping the subject and instead turned her attention to Chu Jin, speaking with affection, "Ah Jin, my sister’s chef is really skilled, you must eat a lot later, look how thin you are, do you even weigh 90 pounds?"
The old Mo family madam also nodded in agreent, "You really should eat more, see how slight you are, nowhere near as sturdy as Qingyi."
An undeserved target, Mo Qingyi looked at the old Mo family madam with so displeasure, "Mom, is that how you talk about your own daughter? When did she beco sturdy?"
Is it really proper to describe a girl as sturdy? Has her mother lost her mind?
Sitting beside her, Duanmu Zhe gently patted her on the shoulder and whispered teasingly in her ear, "You’re not sturdy... you’re just a bit like a little pig, that’s all."
