Chapter 186 The纨绔世子 25 (1/2)

Night fell, and all was quiet.

However, candles were still lit in Xia Momo's courtyard.

She dismissed the maidservants and sat alone in front of her dressing table.

The bronze mirror reflected a pale, haggard face, but with unusually excited eyes.

"No! This can't be right!"

Xia Momo clenched her fists tightly. She absolutely refused to believe that she was just an ordinary, talented ancient woman!

"If she's not a time traveler... then she must have awakened a cheat ability!"

Xia Momo's mind raced, and countless scenes from online novels she had read in her previous life flashed through her mind.

The system space, or perhaps the inherited memories of some old man, or maybe some farming master!

Once this idea took hold, it grew wildly in Xia Momo's heart like weeds.

right!

That must be it!

Only in this way can it be explained how a local, ancient woman could know so many modern things and have such clear organization and operational methods.

She must have gotten incredibly lucky and awakened some kind of cheat code that grants her modern knowledge!

Jealousy instantly overwhelmed Xia Momo.

Why is it that Xia Momo, who transmigrated and was reborn, carrying the memories of her past life and walking on thin ice, receives no extra benefits?

She could only rely on her limited knowledge of modern poetry to carefully cultivate her public image!

As for that Liu Zixi, she had never heard of her in her previous life, and she didn't know which despicable person had popped up from some obscure corner!

What makes her so special that she has a cheat code?!

How can they still live such a successful and popular life, receiving so much praise and admiration?

"It's not fair! This is not fair!"

Xia Momo suddenly stood up and, out of control, swept all the cosmetics, powders, and jewelry off the dressing table.

Her chest heaved violently, and she slumped back onto the stool, lost in her own thoughts.

"What is her cheat code...? Is it a system that can directly impart knowledge? Or is it a space connected to libraries of the future? Hmm... Could it be the spirit of some agricultural expert possessing her?"

But every guess only drove her more crazy.

Xia Momo imagined the special abilities Liu Zixi might possess, and the more she thought about it, the more her heart felt heavy and choked with anxiety.

"Why don't I have it? I'm the one destined for greatness! Why should others get all the benefits!"

Xia Momo muttered to herself, her voice filled with resentment and bitterness.

She recalled that modern TV dramas often feature plots where the protagonist steals opportunities from others.

A darker thought surfaced in her mind: What if... what if she could take away Liu Zixi's cheat ability?

Perhaps she could too?

But the "golden finger" thing is so mysterious and elusive, how can it be obtained?

She didn't want to die if she failed or if there was a backlash.

Xia Momo felt a pang of heart palpitation.

The candlelight flickered in the room, and she was tormented by extreme jealousy, resentment, fear, and insane delusions, spending the entire night sleepless.

The sky outside the window gradually turned a pale white.

But the gloom and scheming in Xia Momo's heart were even heavier than the night.

"The bold get rich while the timid starve. Whether you're a time traveler or a lucky native... let me, a modern person, use your cheat codes!"

After several sleepless nights, consumed by jealousy and suspicion of her supposed golden finger, she finally made up her mind.
