He Tiantian seemed oblivious to the somewhat indescribable expression on Su Muxue’s face that appeared on the mobile phone screen.
She continued excitedly, "Muxue, listen, you just need to practice martial arts well in the future. The secret martial arts manual given by the great master includes internal cultivation methods!"
"Once you’ve developed your inner strength, you’ll be able to seal acupoints from a distance, and even be climbing walls and roofs!"
"...Haha, although you’re a delicate girl, as long as you master the divine skill of sealing acupoints, I don’t see who could possibly harm you again!"
"Right, I think practicing also requires taking some tonic herbs. I’ll go ask the great master about it, and when your little uncle and I return, we’ll prepare the herbs for you!"
He Tiantian babbled on, and though her words were still filled with a kind of arrogance typical of a rich girl, boasting highly of herself, if one listened carefully, they could feel her concern and kindness.
Su Muxue being the female lead, was also the kind, tender, and resilient protagonist of an angst-filled story, so her values were upright, allowing her to see beyond appearances to the essence.
She wouldn’t be fooled by superficial things.
Nor would she ungratefully think that her aunt was merely showing off or flaunting her own sense of superiority.
"Thank you, Aunt, I will try hard!"
Su Muxue found that faced with such an enthusiastic and kind aunt, gratitude and effort seemed to be her only options.
"Oh my, don’t strain yourself too much. You still have me, you know, let me tell you, the He family now owns holographic technology and will soon break out locally and become a national financial conglomerate!"
He Tiantian said proudly, "I am the heir of the He family, and when the He family becomes the boss of the industry, my status as He Sitian will also rise!"
"With me here, I’d like to see who dares to bully our Muxue!"
Not even Overbearing Boss Leng.
Although he’s the male lead, and the script dictates he be a powerful and influential tycoon.
But "there are heavens beyond this heaven."
He Tiantian planned to let "He Sitian" become a top-tier BOSS who surpasses the male lead.
Want to send a lackey to strut and swagger before her ever again, or even try to coerce and lure her?
He Tiantian was one to hold grudges.
Although so far, in the world of the novel, she had tried to minimize the possibility of hostility with the male and female leads.
As if she were afraid of the protagonists.
But when either the male or female lead crossed He Tiantian’s bottom line, sorry, even if they were the chosen ones of the Small World, she would stand firm to the end.
For example, in Swindler World, the female lead took the red-clothed female ghost to investigate Guiyuan Taoist Temple at night and even took away the secret technique belonging to the Taoist Temple.
He Tiantian swiftly took out the red-clothed female ghost, leaving the female lead speechless.
Certainly, there was the demand of her mission, but the fearless counter against the female lead’s fury revealed He Tiantian’s vengeful, petty nature.
This time, Leng Mo precisely crossed He Tiantian’s psychological red line—
First, he sent a lackey to humiliate her, trying to coerce her into harming an innocent girl.
Second, no matter how cloaked in love, the fact that Leng Mo was a perpetrator could not be hidden!
To take by force, to harm others against their wills, that’s outright criminal!
It’s only in the novel world that such a scoundrel could still be liked by certain fans.
To maintain a guise of "I love you with all my life," eventually being whitewashed grandly.
But the problem is, such behavior itself is disgusting.
Is it love when you fancy, when you like, you can do whatever you want?
Who has Su Muxue offended?
She clearly doesn’t like you, she’s refused repeatedly, and yet you use vile methods to harm her?
It’s pathological possessiveness, as well as arrogance and shamelessness of bullying the weak!
If Su Muxue were a wealthy heiress comparable to Leng Mo, or better yet, a noble princess, would Leng Mo dare to act so lawlessly under the guise of love?
To put it plainly, Leng Mo is a bully who only targets the weak because he can’t defeat stronger people, seeking that sense of control from overpowering the feeble.
"...Thank you, Aunt!"
Su Muxue sniffled, suppressing the sourness and emotion that came with being cared for and cherished.
She softly expressed her thanks, making no promises, saying no overly emotional words, and taking her aunt’s kindness to heart.
Su Muxue firmly resolved that, no matter how skeptical she was about the two cultivation techniques, she would apply herself diligently.
She would not let her aunt’s good intentions go unappreciated.
