Ideal Mary Sue - Chapter 40

Indeed, before the Empire’s OA exchange meeting, Miss Anna of the Rogeli family personally sent an invitation to Su Ning, inviting her to attend her brother’s birthday party at the Rogeli estate.

Will Su Ning go? Of course not!

It looks like a trap.

Su Ning politely replied with a message saying that she couldn’t make it due to prior engagements.

Su Ning closed the door and casually threw the invitation aside. She opened her personal computer and began to challenge a puzzle game for children under 12.

“What kind of crappy game is this? Is it really a puzzle game for 12-year-olds? I’m just helping my son pass the level, but now I’m doubting my own intelligence!”

“This game is toxic! I’m the kind of person who got a scholarship in university, but I can’t even pass one level!”

“Damn it, I have OCD. I didn’t pass the last level a year ago, and I’m still trying to pass it now! I’m going crazy!”

…

Su Ning kept reading the comments and finally felt relieved. It wasn’t her intelligence that was the problem, it was the game’s flawed design!

444 secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as it had filtered out most of the comments that said the game was easy.

…

Downstairs at the Su residence, a low-key luxury black Galilee limited edition sports car pulled up. The driver, dressed in a uniform, got out of the car and respectfully opened the door for a tall, slender woman with chestnut-red hair, the distinctive trademark of the Rogeli family. Apart from Anna Rogeli, there was no other woman in the Rogeli family who could be treated with such respect.

Anna had indeed lost a lot of weight. If one had to quantify it, it was about a quarter of her previous weight. Usually, people who lose weight drastically have saggy skin, but Anna didn’t have any of that. On the contrary, her skin was firm, delicate and healthy-looking, and she appeared much more spirited than Su Ning, who was soft and weak.

Anna’s red hair, which used to be waist-length, now only reached her ears. Her facial features were exquisite and beautiful, with bright and sparkling eyes. She looked like a completely different person. Su Ning was so stunned when she first saw Anna that she almost didn’t recognize her. Although she often saw her photos online, she never thought she would be so stunning in person.

Can a beta really become so beautiful…

“Miss… Miss Anna?”

Anna showed a friendly smile and nodded at Su Ning’s sister, Susan. “Excuse me, is your sister Su Ning at home? I need to talk to her about something.”

“She’s here.” Susan nodded. “Please come in, I’ll go get her.”

“Thank you.”

“No…no need to thank me.”

Susan went upstairs, thinking to herself, “Is she finally coming to settle accounts with Su Ning? Why don’t I feel happy about it?”

···

Su Ning walked slowly down and was surprised when she saw Anna. After all, Anna’s previous appearance left a deep impression on people.

As soon as she sat down, she heard Anna say, “Su Ning, I think there may have been some misunderstanding between us.”

Su Ning was silent for a moment. She had only just arrived and was not sure if the original owner had done this wall-snatching thing, so she did not deny it, but instead followed her words and said, “I also think so. Regarding Green, I really didn’t expect him to do this.”

Anna shook her head and said with a faint smile, “I didn’t come here today to talk about him. Besides, even if he doesn’t withdraw the marriage proposal, I will withdraw it, so you don’t have to feel guilty.”

“There are too many rumors about us on the internet. I personally came to invite you to my brother’s birthday party to prove with practical actions that we are not as incompatible as the outside world says.”

“I know that those public opinion messages have had some impact on your life, and I hope you can seize this opportunity to dispel the rumors.”

Su Ning was not moved at all, and just smiled apologetically, “You’re right, but I really have something to do that day.”

Anna pondered for a moment, then continued without giving up, “You should also know that my older brother has a good relationship with the second prince. This birthday party is personally hosted by the second prince, and people from various large families will attend, including your former classmates and schoolmates. It’s a large social gathering, and if you go, you can also meet more people…”

As soon as Su Ning heard the title of the second prince, she immediately changed her mind.

After hesitating for a moment, she nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll go.”

Anna breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, “I’ll send a car to pick you up then.”

“Okay, thank you.”

…

As Anna walked out of Su Ning’s house, she smiled with an ambiguous meaning.

Unknown to anyone, Anna was so obsessed with getting revenge on Su Ning because she had also been interfered with by a white lotus third party before. She understood the humiliation and anger that came with it, and although she had ultimately avenged the third party and her scumbag boyfriend, she still couldn’t let it go.

As for Su Ning, it was just a transfer of anger.

···

Su Ning had retrieved the video of the second prince, Eli Alton, from 444.

The video was short, only recording Eli holding hands with a little boy and smiling at him.

Su Ning hadn’t felt this warm and happy in a long time. Eli was truly a gentle person inside and out.

But based on previous experience, an ideal type could attract siblings with a blood relationship. So Su Ning needed to confirm one thing first.

“Are you going to Eric’s birthday party tomorrow, sis?” Susan brought two glasses of juice over and handed one to her, looking worried. “I have a feeling that the Rogeli family isn’t up to anything good…”

“Yeah, I know.” Su Ning handed a piece of paper with Chinese characters on it to Susan and asked, “What does this say?”

Susan looked at it for a long time and shook her head. “I don’t know. It’s probably ancient text.”

“Yeah, it is ancient text, and it’s the character ‘Su’.”

Just now, while browsing a forum about ancient text on the Star Network, Su Ning stumbled upon a group of people who loved studying Earth’s ancient text. She saw them discussing the character ‘字’ with great enthusiasm and finally concluding it meant ‘three days’. Since then, Su Ning had been bothered by her own knowledge of only 25 and a half points in ancient text.

She thought to herself that she might be able to get a bachelor’s degree in ancient text. With that in mind, she became a little excited!

“Okay, I’ve decided. I’m going to switch to the ancient text major!”

Susan stared at her in confusion as she began to fill out the application form for the major change, feeling that something was off with her sister.

…

Eric Rogeli’s birthday was coming up soon.

Before leaving the house, Su Ning looked in the mirror to make sure her makeup was perfect. Then, she got into the Rogeli family’s car that came to pick her up.

The party was being held at the Rogeli estate in the western suburbs.

She arrived a little late, and there were already many people gathered there. Su Ning looked around but didn’t see anyone she knew. Previously, Anna had said that she would invite some classmates over, but that was probably a lie.

There were elegantly dressed ladies sitting together chatting, young people chatting happily in groups of two or three, and children chasing each other.

Most of them knew about the cancellation of the engagement between the Rogeli family’s daughter and Su Ning. They mostly looked down on Su Ning, except for a few young alpha males.

Hearing people talking about her:

“That Greene guy canceled the engagement for her?”

“She looks pretty, but not as good as Anna…”

“Greene must regret it.”

“I don’t think he regrets it. Don’t forget, Anna is only a beta.”

Did they just want to see her standing here awkwardly and making a fool of herself?

It couldn’t be that simple. But as long as she found the second prince, no matter what Anna’s plan was, she would have a backer, and she wouldn’t be afraid of anything!

···

Anna stood on the balcony of the second floor, watching Su Ning, who was standing helplessly next to the fountain in the estate. She smiled and said to the air, “Bug, get ready to start the strategy for Luo Ao!”

Luo Ao is the protagonist of this world. Before the main system sends people to this world to collect love, she wants to conquer him first.

“Bug, help me see where Luo Ao is.”

···

“Okay.” Su Ning looked at the red liquid in the glass and gently shook it with her hand.

Su Ning used the old-fashioned way of approaching men- accidentally bumping into him at the corner and accidentally spilling wine on his body, then frantically helping him wipe off the stains with a handkerchief.

Different types of men would have different reactions to this.

The domineering CEO would directly hold her hand and say coldly, “Woman, you are arousing my anger!”

The demon-like boss would hold her hand, smirk and say, “Your clothes are wet, why don’t you compensate me with your body~”

The gentle senior would pat her shoulder and comfort her, saying, “It’s okay, just use your mouth to lick it clean!”

No, no, no! The last one was wrong. Su Ning covered her forehead. She had hardly ever seen a truly gentle man. Most of the men who appeared gentle were actually wicked. She had no idea what the reaction of a truly gentle man would be if she approached him in this old-fashioned way.

However, this time, Eli’s reaction should be able to fill in the last blank.

Su Ning tightened her fists, her eyes firm and her confidence high.

Eli Eli, come here!

The fountain was high, and the person walking towards her on the other side couldn’t see Su Ning’s figure at all. However, it was a bit difficult to implement the turn-around wine splashing operation. Su Ning lowered her head and looked at her floor-length skirt, which she had specially worn, and her handkerchief was also ready. She decided to pretend to step on the hem of her skirt and pounce on him, accidentally splashing wine on him.

What would his reaction be? She was so curious!

Su Ning took a deep breath.

5, 4, 3, 2…

“Su Ning!!!”

The voice, containing anger, came from far away, making Su Ning startled, causing her to be a step late in her pounce. She fell directly to the ground and hit her chin on a rock. She felt her bones breaking, and her hands, which had acted as a cushion, were also scraped, causing her to cry in pain.

The frail body of an omega was indeed not a false reputation!

She missed the opportunity to fill in the blank!

Su Ning lay on the ground, feeling hopeless.

She was not afraid that no one would help her up. The Second Prince had just seen her face, and the influence of her ideal appearance was considerable. She didn’t believe he could resist getting closer to her.

Sure enough, a pair of strong hands directly lifted her up.

When Su Ning rubbed her chin and saw the cold face in front of her, she was stunned.

It was not the Second Prince but Luo Ao?!

“Hold on.”

There was a hint of comfort in his cold tone.

Luo Ao carried her and walked towards the main hall.

inevitably led Su Ning, who had been obsessed with the internet for the past few days, to come across several reports related to him.

There were various kinds of news promoting his battlefield achievements, such as repelling the cockroach race, exterminating the iron ant nest, defeating the galaxy skeleton pirate, etc. Among them, the most attention-grabbing was Luo Ao’s background.

There is a great correlation between one’s aptitude and genes, so it is rare for civilians to have outstanding aptitude. Coupled with the fact that Luo Ao’s parents have never appeared in public, netizens began to speculate whether Luo Ao is the heir of some family or not…

Su Ning looked at him, frowning as he treated her wound, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

What made her cry was that Luo Ao’s ideal type was exactly the same as the Second Prince’s!
