So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

Chapter 78 Ling Xiaofu

Meeting Ling Jiuan's icy gaze, Ling Jiuxi couldn't help but shiver, a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but found that her voice was trembling.

"you……"

However, she was surrounded by servants and was unwilling to admit defeat in such a shameful way.

She took a deep breath, mustered up her courage, and spoke in a bluffing manner.

"Ling Jiuan, those are my clothes! How could you wear them?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Jiuan curled his lips and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.

She shook her head slightly, with a hint of teasing in her tone.

"Really? But this was personally delivered by Madam Wang, who is by Madam Lan's side, and your name isn't written on it! How do you know this is your dress?"

Ling Jiuxi's eyes widened in disbelief. She stared at Ling Jiuan's fiery red dress, her heart filled with resentment and anger.

"how is this possible?"

She didn't understand why her mother gave the dress to Ling Jiuan when she knew she liked it and was planning to wear it at the banquet three days later.

Ling Jiuan looked indifferent, as if he didn't take the matter to heart.

She shrugged slightly.

"I don't know about that. You'll have to ask Madam Lan. I have other things to do, so I won't waste my time with you."

After saying that, she turned and was about to leave.

Hearing this, Jiuxi became even more furious. She clenched the whip in her hand and was about to strike again.

However, Ling Jiuan had already noticed her intention.

She narrowed her eyes, the spiritual power rolled in her hands, and she exerted force hard, and the whip was torn off.

"Don't hit me with your whip at every turn."

Ling Jiuan's voice was cold and firm, and there was an unquestionable light in her eyes.

"Otherwise, next time it'll be your hand that's broken, and the next time it'll be your neck!"

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Ling Jiuxi standing there in a daze.

The servants around couldn't help but gasp when they saw this scene, their faces filled with shock.

"Oh my god, Miss Third's whip is a top-grade magic weapon, but it was destroyed by Miss Fifth's light move?"

"This Fifth Young Lady's strength is too terrifying!"

"Does she really have no spiritual roots? If she is already so powerful without them, then if she has them, wouldn't she be on par with the young master?"

"But then again, the Fifth Miss and the Young Master are from the same mother after all, so it seems reasonable that they are similar in strength."

"As for the fourth young lady...she is weak and sickly, so naturally she is not as good as her brothers and sisters. This is also normal!"

……

Ling Jiuxi listened to those discussions and was so angry that he stamped his feet and his face became extremely ugly.

She glared at Ling Jiuan's back fiercely, her heart filled with resentment and anger.

"Ling Jiuan! You bitch! How dare you do this to me! I will never let you go!"

She cursed under her breath, her voice thick with hatred.

However, Ling Jiuan seemed not to hear her curse and walked straight forward without even turning his head back.

Seeing this, Ling Jiuxi was so angry that he gnashed his teeth.

She glanced coldly at the servants around her, her voice as cold as a knife.

"What are you looking at? Why don't you get out of here? If you don't get out of here, I'll pull out your tongues!"

Her words were full of threats and intimidation, which made the servants around her shudder.

Hearing this, the servants around them quickly scattered like birds and beasts, fearing that Ling Jiuxi would vent his anger on them.

They secretly rejoiced in their hearts.

"Fortunately, fortunately, I managed to escape. The Third and Fifth Misses of the Ling family are not people you can easily mess with!"

Not long after Ling Jiuan left, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of alertness in his heart.

She subconsciously slowed down her pace, then turned back suddenly, scanning the surroundings with sharp eyes.

However, there was no other sound except the sound of leaves rustling in the breeze.

She was about to turn around and continue walking when she suddenly felt a warm touch on the side of her leg.

The next moment, a ball of fiery red fur jumped into her arms.

She was a little surprised, and when she looked down, she found that it was the spirit fox.

After she came back, she was so busy practicing that she forgot about this little guy.

"Spirit Fox? Why did you follow me?"

She asked softly, her eyes full of smiles. The little guy seemed to understand her words, licked her palm, and then rubbed her with his head, showing great intimacy.

She touched the soft fur of the spirit fox and felt a warmth in her heart.

"Let me give you a name. I'll call you 'Lingling'!"

She said with a smile, her tone full of fondness.

Hearing this, the little fellow narrowed his eyes, as if he was savoring the name.

Then, it hummed softly, as if to express its agreement.

Seeing this, Ling Jiuan smiled even more happily.

"It seems that you like this name too."

She said, and then lifted Lingling onto her shoulders.

The man and the fox walked side by side, looking particularly eye-catching.

The people around cast curious glances at him, but were intimidated by Ling Jiuan's cold temperament and did not dare to approach him easily.

Just like that, Ling Jiuan brought Lingling and slowly walked to the door of the accounting office.

Before I even stepped over the threshold, a familiar noise reached my ears, breaking the silence around me.

"No, my monthly allowance is clearly 300 spirit stones, why did you only give me 100? What do you mean by this?"

A sharp and slightly dissatisfied female voice sounded, the tone full of doubt and dissatisfaction.

The steward's voice followed closely behind, with a hint of helplessness and fatigue.

"Ms. Xiaofu, you come here every month to make advance payments. How can our account office have any extra spirit stones for you? This account book has every detail clearly written in black and white! Besides, how many spirit stones do you want as a collateral lady with ordinary talent?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Jiuan raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

Ling Xiaofu?

Is it her?

It’s really a narrow road for enemies!

The corner of her mouth curled up in a meaningful arc, and then she stepped into the accounting office.

The scene inside the accounting office came into view. Ling Xiaofu was standing in front of the counter, arguing with the manager with a dissatisfied look on her face.

The manager had a helpless look on his face, and was obviously troubled by this young lady from the side branch who came to advance her monthly salary.

Ling Jiuan's appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention.

She was wearing a fiery red dress and had an outstanding temperament. She was like a ball of blazing flame, instantly lighting up the entire accounting office.

"I'm here to get my spirit stone."

She spoke calmly.

Seeing Ling Jiuan, the manager nodded and bowed immediately, with a smile on his face.

"Fifth Miss, you are here? Here are your three thousand spirit stones. One thousand of them were given by Madam Lan, and the other two thousand were given to you by the Council of Elders."

As he spoke, he quickly handed a bag of heavy spirit stones to Ling Jiuan.

Ling Jiuan took the spirit stone, weighed it gently, and then nodded with satisfaction.

She looked at Ling Xiaofu, a teasing gleam in her eyes.

"Hey, isn't this Sister Xiaofu? What's wrong? Your monthly allowance is not enough? Do you want me to lend you some?"
