My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 2081: Unfriendly Visitors

Since she has become a student of an elite school, her status naturally draws more attention. Those who try to suppress them certainly don’t dare to act recklessly anymore. I believe that from now on, their days will be much better, and they won’t face as much difficulty.

"That’s good, that’s good." Madam Aisha felt very relieved. Yiyi indeed has been very determined to seize the best opportunity in such a situation. Getting into this school, no matter what, ensures a bright future for this child, and she can finally be completely at ease.

However, what seemed like an unexpected surprise was far from smooth sailing.

Initially, according to the rules, the announcement of the admission was supposed to be made two days later, but it was announced earlier, which in itself hinted at some unusual inside story and further provoked dissatisfaction and trouble from some malicious individuals!

The next day, Ling Kong was summoned to Halian Jing’s office for questioning.

When he saw two other men standing in the office, his expression slightly darkened. One of the men had a smooth and amiable expression, with a kind smile on his lips, but there was a subtle dark gleam in his eyes.

Meanwhile, the other man looked arrogant, snorting disdainfully at Ling Kong.

They were Helian Zheng father and son, Halian Jing’s brother and nephew.

He knew that this father and son pair had always been hostile towards him, often making snide remarks in front of his foster father to provoke and suppress him. However, in recent times, this pair had quieted down a lot, hardly appearing or targeting him.

He thought they would finally settle down and focus on their careers, taking advantage of this good opportunity to achieve something.

From their expressions now, it seems they’re still not coming with good intentions.

Subconsciously, a sense of inexplicable annoyance and indifference arose in his heart. He was most weary of the intrigue among family members within the family. He hoped the Helian Family would be a warm and caring family, but he also understood that large families are like this, where the bonds of blood can’t match the desire for power and ambition. And yet, he had initially harbored unrealistic dreams, imagining that maybe this new family could provide him with the familial affection he longed for.

After all, for an adopted son who appeared midway, everything seemed like a castle in the air.

Perhaps the relationships in most large families in the world are like this, but why, deep down, does he always feel that some families are different from these scheming ones, that they don’t harm each other but truly care, with a kind mother, loving siblings, and a father who protects the whole family, making people feel warm and happy from the bottom of their hearts?

Ling Kong’s eyes revealed a glimmer of hopeful light. Had he once owned such a warm family, which is why he was so sure from the bottom of his heart? He was increasingly filled with curiosity and a desire to uncover his past, and more eager to search for his history.

"You’re here. I saw the news report. I never would have thought that the daughter of my political rival, who I’ve often clashed with, would be so capable, getting into the best university in the world, and suddenly stealing quite a bit of the spotlight. Governor Yun does have a keen eye, adopting such an extraordinary daughter. He truly is an old fox, no wonder he holds such a position of power in front of the Queen, his schemes are indeed not ordinary."

Halian Jing’s tone was subtle, his eyes complex, unable to say whether he was angry or indifferent.

"It’s just a girl getting into Imperial College; while remarkable, it’s not enough to cause any major trouble. I thought such matters wouldn’t be of any concern to Father, let alone warrant any inquiry." Ling Kong’s tone was calm.
