The Queen Reborn: Your Highness, Please Bow Your Head

"Can..."

"If you want to survive to the end, quit the competition!" he emphasized, with an irresistible tone in his words.

Mu Yuluo was about to retort, but she still chose to be rational. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the water surface carefully, as if the water waves in her swimming lane were indeed a little strange.

Maybe...he's right.

I don't know what's under the water, but it's definitely harmful to her.

Maybe it would be a wise choice to give up this swimming competition and try to win in other competitions.

She thought quietly, then slowly raised her hand, her eyes becoming firm.

Lengxi Lengling looked at her in surprise, looking at each other with a strange expression, as if he was afraid that she would say something terrible.

"Contestant No. 2, do you have any questions?" a man asked seriously.

"I want to quit the competition." The expression on her face remained unchanged, as if she had made up her mind and no one could stop her.

Before the man could speak, Leng Ling who was standing by had already rushed forward, stared at her, and angrily shouted: "Mu Yuluo, what do you think is the competition? Just quit!"

Mu Yuluo glanced at her, ignored her, raised her injured arm, turned to the referee and said briefly: "My arm is injured and I can't compete."

The referee nodded silently, indicating his agreement to withdraw from the game.

Then, Mu Yuluo turned around and was about to leave, but Leng Ling stood in front of her for some reason and said confidently: "No, you can't withdraw from the competition."

Leng Xi behind her also looked at her with worry. If Mu Yuluo didn't participate in the competition, all their plans would be ruined.

...

Mu Yuluo's eyes rested sharply on Leng Ling, a cool smile appeared on her lips, and she asked: "You are trying every possible means to prevent me from withdrawing. Is there any purpose?"

Her words successfully labeled Leng Ling as having ulterior motives.

Judging from the expressions of the two sisters, she almost guessed that they must be behind it again.

Leng Ling was speechless for a moment and looked at Leng Xi for help.

Mu Yuluo suppressed the anger in her heart and asked: "Don't forget, I am your sister's competitor. As long as someone withdraws from the competition, doesn't her chance of winning increase? Or... someone is causing trouble behind her back?"

Woolen cloth?!"

"Mu Yuluo, you, you, you..." She looked away and wanted to retort, but her words stuttered, "You said...who...who is causing trouble..."

Mu Yuluo looked at her mockingly, "I can't even speak clearly. Is there something wrong in my heart?"

Just when Leng Ling was so angry that she couldn't speak, Mu Yuluo's peripheral vision caught a glimpse of Beigong Ji Yun talking sideways to a young man. The young man nodded repeatedly, and then turned to the referee's ear.

Bian whispered for a while.

The referee glanced at Leng Xi and nodded seemingly unintentionally.

At this time, Beigong Jiyun gave her a reassuring look.

She didn't know where the tacit understanding came from, but she actually understood what was expressed in his eyes.

She smiled confidently and said to Leng Ling: "Whether there is trouble or not, we will find out soon!"

The tone of her last few words was aggravated. Leng Ling looked at her in shock, unable to say another word. Her eyes were filled with uneasiness.

Leng Xi, who was as steady as a mountain, felt inexplicably afraid at this moment, as if it was the eve of a storm.
