    Chapter 73: Dominate the School

    Thus, Yun Mu's first day at Imperial Capital University was marked by her sudden rise to fame within the school.

    She was known by the nickname "Little Demoness."

    Everyone would give her a wide berth when they saw her!

    To be honest, this deviated from Yun Mu's vision of university life. She genuinely wanted to make friends and experience the life of an ordinary girl.

    Was it destined that being invincible meant enduring loneliness?

    But soon, Yun Mu was no longer alone.

    Suddenly, a fierce gust of wind from a palm strike approached!

    Yun Mu's body swiftly dodged, and with a lift of her hand, she deflected the opponent's attack.

    Across from her, Si Mohan had one hand in his pocket and the other holding his skateboard, staring at her with a bold expression.

    Beside him stood two rows of bodyguards, packed tightly.

    "Yun Mu, I've heard about you. My grandmother has been praising you nonstop in my ear, almost giving me calluses, which really annoys me! Today, you made me fall and lose face, which also really annoys me!"

    "Sorry for annoying you, but what's your point? A fight?" Yun Mu's demeanor was equally audacious as she delivered a spinning kick, sending a nearby bodyguard flying, raising her eyebrows, "See? Even if you all attack together, you have no chance of winning!"

    Si Mohan instantly straightened his posture.

    Damn! These bodyguards were the most elite experts of their Si family, yet how could this woman send one flying with just a kick?

    Impossible!

    "Attack her! There will be a generous reward for whoever wins!"

    Thus, all the bodyguards swarmed forward.

    Even so, they were no match for the female war goddess.

    Her movements were swift and clean, her techniques fierce, leaving Si Mohan dazzled.

    Then, Yun Mu clapped her hands and walked towards Si Mohan in her high heels.

    Si Mohan's body involuntarily retreated, his aura halving, "You...you're good."

    Yun Mu sized up this little brat, saying, "Brother, I advise you not to always look for trouble with me. I just want to study peacefully and get a degree. We've only met today, and already you've caused me so much trouble. Ignoring your provocations, I've been given poisoned ice cream and almost blown up. You're simply a source of disaster!"

    Si Mohan stammered, unable to respond. After a long pause, he said, "I can't help it that I'm too handsome!"

    How could he be blamed for girls fighting over him?

    Yun Mu sighed speechlessly, shook her head, then got into her McLaren supercar and sped away in a cloud of dust.

    By the time the dust-covered Si Mohan came back to his senses, Yun Mu was already out of sight.

    Damn!

    He threw down his skateboard and pointed at the fading silhouette of Yun Mu's car, roaring, "Yun Mu, we'll settle our score next time!"

    As soon as Si Mohan finished his threat and turned around, he saw a woman with exquisite features and a gentle smile that sent chills down his spine standing before him.

    "Master Si, did my sister offend you in any way?" the woman asked.

    "Who are you?" Si Mohan asked bluntly.

    Yun Shuiyao paused, then smiled, "I'm Yun Shuiyao. Master Si doesn't recognize me?"

    Then she added, "Yun Mu is my sister."

    Si Mohan nodded, "Oh, what's the matter?"

    Yun Shuiyao stepped forward and said gently, "I heard that my sister offended Master Si today, and I feel very sorry. If Master Si wants to take revenge on my sister, I think I can help you."

    Si Mohan gave Yun Shuiyao a strange look and then cursed, "Are you crazy?"

    Then he picked up his skateboard and left.

    What did it have to do with her?

    Yun Shuiyao was stunned by his outburst for a moment before coming back to her senses and stomping off.

    Ungrateful!

    The moment Yun Mu returned to the Huo residence, she heard a sharp voice say, "Well, isn't this our famous Little Demoness of the Imperial Capital?"

    Yun Mu glanced around.

    Li Yunlan, draped in purple fur, was brewing tea in the living room. Seeing Yun Mu return, she began mocking her with a fake smile, "Yun Mu, you're truly remarkable, causing chaos wherever you go, offending people everywhere!"

    On her first day of school, she not only stirred up a commotion at Imperial Capital University but also offended the young master of the Si family.

    At this rate, wouldn't she turn the entire Imperial Capital upside down?

    Yun Mu replied with a similarly insincere smile, "Madam Huo is quite impressive too, how come your ears are everywhere? You know everything I do."

    "What do you mean, girl? Do you suspect I sent someone to follow you?" Li Yunlan said nervously.

    Yun Mu retorted, "Isn't that the case?"

    "Dad, look at your good granddaughter-in-law..."

    Unable to argue further, Li Yunlan began to pour out her grievances to Old Master Huo.

    Old Master Huo raised his hand, signaling for both of them to hold their tongues.

    "Yunmu did nothing wrong today. When someone is bullied, they should retaliate. Are we, the Huo family, supposed to be doormats outside?" Old Master Huo patted Yunmu's shoulder in praise and comforted him, "It's alright. Whatever happens, Grandpa will take care of it for you."

    Yunmu's face immediately lit up with a smile. "Thank you, Grandpa. Grandpa, let me brew you some tea."

    With that, Yunmu put down his textbook and stepped forward, pouring out the tea that Li Yunlan had brewed earlier, then started to make tea himself.

    "You!" Li Yunlan was so angry that her face trembled.

    Yet, as Yunmu worked, he also lectured her, "Mrs. Huo, when brewing tea and pouring water, remember to do it quickly. The speed must be fast, quick pour, quick stop. Your technique just now was clearly lacking."

    Li Yunlan gritted her teeth.

    Did she, who had been trained in noble etiquette since childhood, need this yellow-haired girl to teach her how to brew tea?

    But despite Yunmu's lecturing, he elegantly and correctly completed every step of the tea-making process.

    In the end, he poured the tea into Old Master Huo's favorite white porcelain tea cups with blue floral patterns, each cup having an even layer of foam, leaving no room for criticism.

    And it surpassed Li Yunlan's tea by more than just a little.

    Old Master Huo leisurely enjoyed a sip of the tea, then praised, "Mm, not bad. Yunmu is truly capable of anything. Ha ha, our Tingcheng has found a real gem this time."

    Unfortunately, these words were heard by Huo Jinzhou, who had just returned from the company, and his expression immediately darkened.

    Yunmu glanced at Huo Jinzhou and got up. "Grandpa, I'll head back to my room then."

    "Mm, go ahead."

    After Old Master Huo left, Li Yunlan approached Huo Jinzhou and whispered, "What does the old man mean by this? I didn't believe he didn't know about the marriage swap back then. Since he tacitly approved it, what does he mean by saying this now?"

    Huo Jinzhou pursed his lips, remaining silent.

    Sometimes, he wondered if he had lost sight of the bigger picture in pursuit of small gains.

    Li Yunlan asked again, "How was your day at the company? Did you speak up for your uncle?"

    Huo Jinzhou frowned impatiently. "Mom, I'm really tired. Can you give me a break?"

    "You child!"
