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."

Huo Xuan Is Not a Simple Person

編集者: Atlas Studios

"Does Young Master Huo treat you well?"

"Pretty well."

Upon hearing Mo Zhu's answer, Zhang Qi and the others felt even more sorry for her. She had been abandoned by her mother since she was young, and when her mother found her, she had used her to marry someone else on behalf of her other daughter.

"Then, Sister Mo, do you have any other relatives?" Meng Ran asked.

Mo Zhu pondered for a moment and answered, "I have a grandmother in the First Hospital."

"Is Sister Mo's grandmother sick?"

"Why don't we go visit her together?"

"Yes, Sister Mo's grandmother is our grandmother."

Unable to resist their enthusiasm, Mo Zhu nodded. "I'll go get someone later. He'll go with us."

The five of them applied for leave from Li Xiao and went to the First Hospital.

The other person that Mo Zhu was talking about was Lin Xiao from Class One. Lin Xiao was the son of Mo Zhu's aunt. Since her parents were not by her side since she was young, her aunt took very good care of her. Naturally, Lin Xiao had a very good relationship with her. Lin Xiao was a special admission student of Jingyang High School and he had entered the school based on his own abilities.

When Zhang Fen saw that Mo Zhu had brought so many people to visit her, she was very happy and she felt much better.

"Hello, Mo Zhu's grandma. We are friends of Mo Zhu, and we are here to visit you." Meng Ran greeted Zhang Fen.

"Alright, hello. Come sit down."

"Grandma Zhang." Jiang Xun was very close to Mo Zhu's grandmother.

"Grandma." Lin Xiao smiled when he saw his grandmother.

"Hey! Little Xun and Xiao Xiao are here as well." Zhang Fen was even happier when she saw that both Jiang Xun and Lin Xiao had come as well.

Mo Zhu peeled an apple for Zhang Fen while Zhang Qi and Li Shen told some jokes to make Zhang Fen happy.

Zhang Fen looked at Mo Zhu and said, "That child who came with you the last time had come a few times too."

"He, came?" Mo Zhu knew that she was referring to Huo Xuan.

Jiang Xun heard Zhang Fen's words and asked, "Grandma, are you talking about Huo Xuan?"

He didn't expect Huo Xuan to have met Mo Zhu's grandmother. Lin Xiao was also surprised and looked at Mo Zhu worriedly.

Because all of them had classes in the afternoon, Mo Zhu and the others returned to school after staying for a while. When they parted with Lin Xiao, Mo Zhu gave him two tickets.

After the second lesson in the afternoon, Meng Ran looked dispirited.

"What's wrong?" Mo Zhu looked at her.

"I can't meet my idol anymore. I didn't manage to get a ticket." Tomorrow was Monday, which was the time for the Essence Soul's competition in Cloud City.

"Don't worry, you will see him." Meng Ran thought that Mo Zhu was comforting her when she saw how confident Mo Zhu was. Thus, she did not say anything.

Then, she saw Mo Zhu rummaging through the drawer and taking out a stack of tickets. Yes, a stack of them.

"Are you going to tell me that these are the tickets to the Essence Soul's Competition?"

Mo Zhu kept quiet and passed the tickets for her to see for herself.

"Oh my god, it really is. And there are so many of them? Sister Mo, you're too amazing!"

Zhang Qi and Li Shen turned around. "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

"We can go and watch the competition of the Essence Soul!" Meng Ran was excited. When Zhang Qi heard Meng Ran mention the Essence Soul, he was also depressed. It was too difficult to get tickets to the Essence Soul's competition. And now, seeing how happy Meng Ran was, he reckoned other than Meng Ran, no one in Class Eight had managed to get the tickets.

"It's not me, it's us. Sister Mo has tickets." Did Mo Zhu manage to get two tickers?

After seeing the stack of tickets on Mo Zhu's table, Zhang Qi and Li Shen stopped talking. They decided to hide it from the others and give them a surprise tomorrow.

At this moment, everyone in Class One was also discussing the Essence Soul's competition.

"Ran Ran, did you manage to get the tickets?"

"No, but Young Master Xu gave me one."

"Wow, Young Master Xu treats you so well!" Under her desk mate's gaze which was filled with meaning, Fang Ran smiled a little embarrassedly.

Ji Shu also had a ticket. Fang Ran walked to Xu Zhang and smiled sweetly. "Young Master Xu, let's watch the competition tomorrow!"

After school, Jiang Xun and Mo Zhu walked out of the school. Jiang Xun asked, "Are you planning to stay at the Huo family's residence forever?"

"Huo Xuan isn't as simple as he looks."

"I know." How could someone who was poisoned with such a poison be simple?

"You know it and you're still…" Jiang Xun hadn't finished speaking when he saw Huo Xuan waiting at the entrance, and his gaze was slightly hesitant.

The man was leaning against the car, holding a cigarette in one hand, his movements extremely languid. When he saw Mo Zhu walk over, he snuffed it out. Huo Xuan also noticed Jiang Xun, and his gaze was slightly hostile.
