Mortal Kombat: Scumbag Men Stealing Away Yandere Girls

He rose to prominence in the stock market, becoming a household name.

All of this is thanks to that strange masked man.

He was left hanging on the sea cliff all night, exposed to the sea breeze, until the next day when fishermen found him and brought him down. A severe cold and psychological trauma kept him from leaving his lodgings for a long time. To encourage him, Qi Xi gave him money and told him many principles of investment and wealth.

Qi Xi looked at him firmly, her expression gentle, indicating that he was sure he would achieve something.

You are different from everyone else; you are a genius, and I deeply love you for being a genius.

Lin Luo actually started reading a book.

I read several books by economists related to investment, claiming to have read thirty books, and flipped through about thirty pages of each one.

He thought he understood it; what was so difficult about it?

When he started investing, he adopted the online name "Blackjack".

A genius has emerged out of nowhere.

If he continues, with his own abilities and large investments, he can surpass the Qin Group within five to ten years and create his own golden age.

He hadn't intended to come today, but Qi hope insisted on inviting him and told him that Qin Ning would be there.

Lin Luo wanted to show Qin Ning who she was now.

Qin Ning, you'll regret this.

Yesterday you ignored me and went to someone else's arms. Does he have my ability to manipulate the stock market and turn the tide at will?

I don't need to understand R&D, I don't need to make products, I don't need to please consumers, yet I can still make money from rich people and create wealth.

The smartest people in the world are those who make money from money, which is why I stand at the top of society, a superior person.

The unexpected and tremendous success restored Lin Luo's confidence.

He couldn't wait to see Qin Ning now.

People around him came up to him to exchange pleasantries, their words carrying an undertone of wanting to know his identity.

Lin Luo maintained his usual deep and pretentious expression, but his eyes betrayed his search of the scene.

Come out, come out now! I want to take off my mask in front of you and show you who I am.

Then he saw a familiar mask, and his steps faltered instantly, a chill running down his spine.

"Aren't you going to say hello?" Bai Weiran's voice was gentle and kind. He put his arm around Qin Ning and led her out of the crowd to stand in the most conspicuous place so that Lin Luo could see her at a glance.

He snapped his fingers, and the lights in the entire hall instantly turned on. The spotlight that had been shining on Lin Luo disappeared without a trace, and the atmosphere of his triumphant return vanished in an instant.

"What greeting? Who needs me to greet them?" Qin Ning asked, looking puzzled, as she put her arm around Bai Weiran.

She didn't want to greet anyone; she just wanted to dance with him all night before midnight.

The masked man only gets close to her when she's dancing, without maintaining a safe distance, and puts his hands on her waist and shoulders.

The music stopped when this idiot came in, making her miss several minutes of dancing, so I can't post anymore!

"He was your former teacher, after all. It's essential to respect your teachers."

Bai Weiran smiled at Lin Luo and called out to him.

"Mr. Lin Luo, it's been a long time. How was the sea breeze last time?"

Want to expose your true identity and show off?

What? I'll strike first!

I've hit your sweet spot.

The two girls nestled against Lin Luo froze for a moment, feeling their arms tremble slightly uncontrollably.

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Two Blackjacks

Lin Luo has sought psychological counseling many times in order to get rid of the psychological shadow cast by Bai Weiran.

The first fall from a high-rise building, the second freefall throughout the night—these experiences planted seeds of fear in their subconscious.

Lan Xianzi and Luo Luoluo noticed Lin Luo's trembling. Luo Luoluo was still confused, but the genius girl Lan Xianzi had already cast a suspicious look at Qin Ning's dance partner.

She whispered, "...It's you? How dare you bully my research materials?"

Bai Weiran, with his superhuman hearing, heard it and was speechless for a moment.

Girl, let's talk about these lines. You're not embarrassed saying them yourself, but I'm embarrassed for you.

I'm so domineering, I want to carve out a magical castle with my toes.

The onlookers began to whisper among themselves again.

"Lin Luo? He's Lin Luo?"

"He's wearing a Black Jack mask. Could Lin Luo be Black Jack?"

"No way? No way? Black Jack is Lin Luo? My Dao Heart is shattered!"

"Didn't you just praise him a few days ago, saying his voice was so beautiful, like your ears were pregnant?"

"If you know, then it's not him... Oh, so if this person is Lin Luo, then the masked man next to Qin Ning isn't Lin Luo? Then who is he? Does anyone know him?"

Bai Weiran heard that everyone's focus of discussion was on Lin Luo, but there were not many good things to say.

If Qin Ning continues to relentlessly pursue Lin Luo, this infatuated young lady will only make everyone laugh at her.

Now that Qin Ning has sobered up and is no longer associating with Lin Luo, everyone has turned their ridicule towards Lin Luo.

Qin Ning was stunned when Bai Weiran exposed the other party's identity. In fact, upon closer inspection, she also recognized that it was Lin Luo—after all, half a mask was just a waste of time.

In the past, if she had seen two girls snuggling up to Lin Luo, she would have been so jealous that she would have wanted to rush up and tear them apart, and use all her power to destroy the scene.

At that moment, she felt a slight tremor in her heart.

Then there is no more then.

Let him love whoever he wants, it's up to him; she just felt relieved.

Lin Luo noticed Qin Ning staring at him. That focused gaze instantly filled him with a sense of disdain and contempt, completely overshadowing the fear in his heart.

He once again returned to his calm and brooding expression.

Standard gave a cold laugh, a dark glint flashing in his eyes.

Luo Luoluo looked at him with adoration: Great, my man is about to start his performance.

Bai Weiran thought to himself: Great, this guy is about to start showing off.

"Yes, I am Lin Luo."

Lin Luo removed his mask, scanned the crowd, and finally looked at Bai Weiran.

"Today's event was supposed to be a masquerade ball where everyone would stay anonymous and not show their faces. Miss Qin's dance partner specifically asked me to reveal my identity. What's her intention?"

"I hope there's no misunderstanding about me."

“I didn’t come here for Miss Qin. I have my own dance partner, as you can see.”

Lin Luo, even if she was stupid, could guess that Bai Weiran was standing up for Qin Ning after both of her plans were interrupted.

He had no intention of challenging the superhuman strength, but he couldn't help feeling a sense of pent-up frustration.

He is not alone now.

"Miss Qin and I only knew each other since childhood. How could someone like me be worthy of her?"

Bai Weiran knew this sentence.

This was the first time Qin Ning confessed her feelings to Lin Luo, and it was seen by others. This is what Lin Luo said to those people.

A clever tactic is to retreat in order to advance, using self-deprecation to sting those who love him.

Lin Luo's words were very malicious, using language that only he and Qin Ning understood to hurt her.

Unfortunately, while Qin Ning's memories were successfully triggered, her old feelings did not rekindle; instead, she frowned.

Holy crap, why did I ever confess to this person in the first place?

This one sentence allowed Qin Ning to understand Lin Luo's character.

If Lin Luo were as calm and indifferent as before, he wouldn't need to say such veiled sour things now.

Lin Luo mistook her furrowed brows for hesitation and gave a cold laugh.

"Today, I'm just an ordinary person attending the ball—a stock market investor."

These words were suggestive and raised expectations to the max, leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.

Is he really Blackjack?

Qin Ning had certainly heard about Blackjack; he was currently very popular and there was a lot to talk about.

But she didn't care.

Every year, several stock market gurus emerge, sparking a frenzy of public enthusiasm.

But what does that have to do with her?

She was born into a world of wealth, a fortune that would seem enormous to most people, but to her it was insignificant. Just as Bai Weiran said, she was born on a different track and had her own responsibilities.

Bai Weiran smiled and replied, "What a coincidence, me too."

"Hello, I'm Blackjack."

Lin Luo: ...? ? ? ?

Everyone:? ? !

Qin Ning: ...! ! ?

Bai Weiran smiled, tightened his arms slightly, and Qin Ning immediately realized that Bai Weiran was talking nonsense.

"You're talking nonsense, I'm the Blackjack!"
