Chapter 13  : The Model Husband and Wife Destroyed

“What are you trying to do?”

Xiao Lingbo reached out his hand to protect Xiao Ying, but Madam Xiao left a bloody mark on the back of his hand.

“What should I do? Xiao Lingbo, I think you are overly attached to raising this daughter. Have you forgotten who the real daughter is? Uh—”

Xiao Lingbo covered Madam Xiao’s mouth.

He gently told the frightened Xiao Ying to go back and rest before taking Madam Xiao back to her room.

Xiao Lingbo wanted to ask Xiao Ying and Cheng Yang about what had been happening.

In the end, after Madam Xiao’s ruckus, they would have to leave it for later.

This was the first time Xiao Lingbo realized that his wife did not know the big picture and had nearly ruined his plans.

Seeing the two of them enter the house, the fear on Xiao Ying’s face disappeared.

She walked into the room with a cold expression.

“Amulet, can I start learning skills?”

“Yes, Master.”

The amulet answered quickly.

Xiao Ying was overjoyed. She opened the interface that she had seen the last time and saw that there was a row of curriculum icons that had already turned from gray to colored.

But yet more courses remained gray.

Xiao Ying was puzzled. “What’s going on? Didn’t you say that your energy was full?”

“Master, the energy I have stored is limited, so it’s best for you to stay by the lucky man’s side for a long time.”

Perhaps it was because it now had sufficient energy, but she felt that the amulet sounded much louder.

However, its words made Xiao Ying’s heart turn cold. “You mean I still have to see Cheng Yang in the future?”

“Yes.”

Xiao Ying recalled her bold kiss.

She collapsed onto the bed, wishing she was dead.

“How many courses can I buy with this energy?”

“One.”

As matters stood, Xiao Ying could no longer complain.

Let nature take its course.

Everything was clear now.

Xiao Ying was prepared to spend the energy that she had painstakingly obtained.

She rewound the course panel and looked at the first row of low-level courses.

Xiao Ying was interested in all kinds of courses.

But now, what she needed the most…

She pondered for a moment before turning to look at the unremarkable stock trading course.

She repeated the title in her mind and confirmed the purchase.

What she needed most was money.

“Congratulations, Master. You have successfully ordered an initial-stage stock speculation course.”

Ding!

Xiao Ying saw that the lit class had turned gray again.

“Master, do you want to study it now?”

‘Yes.’

A glint flashed through Xiao Ying’s eyes.

Then, her body froze and she fell onto the bed.

She felt as if her soul and body had been separated.

The miniature version of her soul was stored in her sea of consciousness, and this was the first time she had seen the amulet.

A small ball of light the size of a palm was about to greet her when her soul was surrounded by a string of characters.

Xiao Ying did not feel any discomfort. On the contrary, she only felt warm and at ease.

But after a while, it was like boiling a frog in clear water.

She felt like the atmosphere was getting hotter and hotter.

She could not take it anymore. Her body, which was lying on the bed, was burning hot and she was sweating profusely.

Fortunately, no one witnessed this scene. Otherwise, Xiao Ying would already be lying in a hospital bed instead.

Xiao Ying’s soul rolled within the light.

Just when she couldn’t take it anymore, a cool feeling engulfed her entire body.

She couldn’t help but sigh.

She felt that many things had appeared in her mind.

The words were difficult to comprehend, but she felt that she could understand them.

After a while, the cool feeling disappeared.

She tried to move and found that she could without difficulty.

She sat up immediately.

She suddenly transformed back from her soul form, feeling her body grow heavy.

After getting used to it, she called out to the amulet.

“Master, that was just the learning process. It’s mainly because your soul is too weak that you won’t be able to take the elementary classes. The more classes you take, the stronger your soul will become.”

The explanation of the amulet made Xiao Ying a little worried. This was only a beginner-level course. Wouldn’t it be even more uncomfortable if it was a middle-level or high-level course?

However, it was unnecessary to consider that now.

Feeling that her body had not changed much, the sensation of overflowing with knowledge had already disappeared.

No matter how she tried to recall, she could not remember anything.

What was going on?
