The Substitute Madam Amazes the World Once More

Mo Zhu's mother remarried after her father went missing, and she had lived in the countryside with her elderly grandmother ever since. The girl who had no parents wanted to protect herself. Therefore, to avoid getting bullied, she had turned wild since she was a child—she played truant, fought, and drank. There was nothing she did not know how to do. She was a problematic student in the eyes of her teachers, a big sister in the eyes of her classmates, and a hooligan in the eyes of her acquaintances. When she was eighteen, her birth mother retrieved her to live at her stepfather's house. Everyone in the village claimed that she was going to live a happy life in the city, that her mother had not forgotten that she had a daughter here. "Mo Zhu, the Huo family is one of the most powerful families in the country. It's your good fortune to replace your younger sister in marrying into the Huo family. You have to cherish this opportunity," explained her mother patiently as she held Mo Zhu's hand. Mo Zhu's eyes were filled with sorrow. At that instant, she knew why her mother thought of her. Inviting her over to the city to enjoy life was simply a figment of her imagination—she was simply an exploitable piece of trash that her mother could sacrifice. The Eldest Young Master of the Huo family fell severely ill recently. He did not just develop a twisted personality, but also became violent and cruel. His face had been completely ruined and he had only two years left to live. Mo Zhu's younger sister was supposed to be Eldest Young Master Huo's fiancée, but the ruined young master was no longer a suitable match. Fearing the Huo family's influences, her mother did not dare to cancel the marriage, thus she sent Mo Zhu under the bus to protect her younger sister. However, was Mo Zhu truly just a useless simpleton who knew how to smoke, drink, and fight? No! That was simply a disguise she used for self-defense since she was a girl without parents. After marrying into the Huo family, she stopped smoking, drinking, and fighting. She became the best daughter-in-law a mother-in-law could ever have; the best wife a husband could ever have. What never occurred to anyone was she no longer flunked in her studies. In fact, she transformed into a straight-A student. Half a year later, she enrolled in the best university in the country and majored in specialized medicine. Determined to become an excellent doctor, she cured her husband's illness completely in merely two years. That handsome and suave Eldest Young Master Huo returned. After Huo Xuan's recovery, he allocated a huge budget and held the biggest wedding of the century for Mo Zhu. During the grand wedding ceremony, Huo Xuan announced during his speech, "In this lifetime, there are two people I'm most grateful for other than my parents. One of them is my mother-in-law. Thank you for despising me after I fell ill and forcing my wife to marry me in her younger sister's stead. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met the most important person in my life! The second person must be my wife! She never despised me when I was at my lowest. Instead, she takes good care of me. She's an angel sent by God, and she has saved me with her forgiveness and kindness, granting me a second chance at life."

The Real Power of Cloud City

Editor: Atlas Studios

When Mo Zhu was in the office, the other classes were also discussing this matter eagerly.

In Class One

"Ran Ran, have you seen the school forum?" Fang Ran was about to start on a set of test questions when Chen Qi held her hand and asked.

"No. What's up?"

"You'll know it when you see it. I didn't expect a transfer student to be such a person. Although she looks aloof, she's someone's sugar baby." Chen Qi pouted. When Fang Ran heard this, she looked at Chen Qi's phone and saw Mo Zhu's face.

"She has a sugar daddy?" Fang Ran was just worried about how she was going to find a way to marry Huo Xuan. Isn't it her chance now?

Although she didn't know why Mo Zhu was still meeting another man privately after she had managed to enter the Huo family, if Young Master Huo found out that Mo Zhu was such a person, he would definitely dislike her.

Fang Ran's lips curved into a happy smile, but she sounded shocked. "Isn't, isn't this my elder sister?"

"Ran Ran, you know the transfer student?"

"She, she's my half-sister from a different father. She grew up in the countryside with her grandma and was only brought back by my mom a while ago. Did my sister do such a foolish thing to take revenge on mom as she was living a tough life in the countryside and she didn't want to acknowledge mom and I?"

"No, I believe that my sister is not such a person. There must be some misunderstanding." Fang Ran's voice sounded pitiful and her voice was trembling slightly.

When the students around Fang Ran heard this, they all silently assumed that what happened on the forum was true.

"So she came from the countryside. No wonder she would do such a thing."

"Ran Ran, a person like this is not fit to be your sister. You don't have to feel sad for her." Everyone consoled Fang Ran.

Fang Ran was the campus belle of Jingyang High School. She had good looks, a good family background, and a good personality. She did not have the arrogance of a typical rich girl. Everyone in Class One liked her very much.

Fang Ran's piano skills were very good as well. These skills of hers was not only well-known in Jingyang High School, but also in Cloud City. It was said that she had just passed level ten recently.

Even Young Master Xu, who was always cold, liked to listen to Fang Ran play the piano. Every time Fang Ran performed for the school's finale, Young Master Xu go and watch her.

In the teacher's office, everyone was waiting for Mo Zhu's uncle to appear.

"Sorry I'm late," the man's deep voice came from the doorway.

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man with a tall and straight figure. He had an imposing appearance and exuded the aura of someone superior.

As he spoke, he looked at the girl and said, "I didn't expect that giving the child a bowl of soup would cause so much trouble."

"Mr. Jiang?" Yang Rong stood up in surprise. Wasn't this Jiang Xun's father?

Yang Rong only recognized him when she saw him in school on reporting day.

The other teachers had never seen Jiang Yan before, but they had indeed seen him on television! He was Jiang Xun's father and also the true leader of Cloud City, Jiang Yan.

Li Xiao was a little surprised to see Jiang Yan, but he also heaved a sigh of relief. "Look, I told you there was a misunderstanding!"

The other teachers nodded. They did not dare to be disrespectful or offend Jiang Yan.

However, they didn't expect Jiang Yan to come to the school personally to clarify about it. And at that instant, they had already informed the principal.

When Elder Xu arrived, Mo Zhu was playing with her phone with her legs crossed with Jiang Yan sitting beside her. Except for Li Xiao, a group of teachers stood awkwardly opposite them.

"Why didn't any of you inform me about the matter?"

In fact, the other teachers wanted to inform the principal, but Yang Rong stopped them.

The principal had allowed Mo Zhu to get in the school through the back door. If they had gone to inform him, he might cover up for her. That would result in unfairness.

Yang Rong trembled when she met the principal's gaze.

"Elder Xu." Jiang Yan nodded.

"Now that everything is clear, it's time to clear the child's name."

"Close the forum immediately. Find out who had posted it and hold a clarification meeting," Xu Qing instructed his secretary.

Even if Jiang Yan didn't come, he would still investigate this matter strictly. He had waited so long to invite the girl with such potential to Jingyang High School. He would definitely not allow her to be framed under his watch.

However, Elder Xu did not expect that Mo Zhu would know Jiang Yan.

However, what was impossible about this child? Elder Xu smiled in relief.

"In the future, you have to inform me about anything related to Mo Zhu," Elder Xu instructed his secretary.

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Jiang Yan quickly left and Mo Zhu returned to the classroom. The students of Class Eight saw Mo Zhu return and Li Lu was asked to go out.

The two of them brushed past each other, exchanging eye contact. Li Lu saw the ridicule in Mo Zhu's deep black eyes, and she quickly lowered her eyes in panic.
