After leaving his phone number with Jiang Youli, Qi Huan left the village with his assistant.

After watching Qi Huan leave, Jiang Youli's eyes darkened.

She took out her phone and dialed a number.

"Night Shadow, immediately investigate the information of everyone in the Jiang family in Beijing, especially the information on Miss Jiang. It would be best if you could give it to me tonight."

"Yes, boss."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Youli's eyes became even more profound.

Uncle Jiang said that twenty years ago, in the dead of winter, he was on his way to retire to a small town in the south when he heard a baby crying from a trash can.

He got out of the car to check and found that it was a baby girl who was not yet a month old. In the middle of winter, her whole body was red from the cold.

If the baby girl hadn't cried so loudly, and if he hadn't happened to be passing by that secluded old road, she would have died silently in the trash can that night.

That baby girl is her.

Uncle Jiang named her Jiang Youli, meaning that she was separated from her family at a young age.

Even on his deathbed, Uncle Jiang never gave up on helping her find her biological parents.

She also fantasized about why her biological parents had temporarily abandoned her for some unspeakable reason.

But now it seems that's not the case.

Her biological parents do not want her, nor do they want to acknowledge her.

If it weren't for their adopted daughter whom they had carefully nurtured for twenty years, she might have remained an orphan with no parents for the rest of her life.

Just then, someone shouted from outside:

"Li girl, who was that who came to see you in that luxury car just now?"

It's Uncle Zhou from next door, who's mainly responsible for going into the mountains to explore for medicinal herbs in the village.

Jiang Youli put away her phone, walked out, and smiled at the middle-aged man outside the door: "Uncle Zhou, to be honest, he's my fiancé."

Uncle Zhou exclaimed in surprise, "Li girl, your fiancé? You have good taste! He's really handsome! Why didn't you invite him to stay for dinner?"

"He has other things to do in the city, so he won't be eating today."

"If he comes again next time, we must invite him to stay for a meal. The food in the village is all homegrown, let him try it, it's much better than what you get outside."

"Okay, Uncle Zhou."

Uncle Zhou carried his sickle and hoe into the mountains, and Jiang Youli went back into the house to continue sorting the medicinal herbs she had picked.

……

After leaving Jianshan Village, Cheng Jing, the assistant who was driving, looked at Qi Huan's calm expression in the rearview mirror and said cautiously, "Young Master, do you really want to marry this peasant doctor? As you can see, she is an orphan who is not loved by her own parents and makes a living by selling medicine and using her little medical skills. You have just had such a big accident and need help right now. Marrying her will not help you maintain your position in the Qi family at all."

Qi Huan withdrew her gaze from the various medicinal fields outside the car window, and gently stroked the petals of a purple flower that she had picked from Jiang Youli's doorstep. "Cheng Jing, do you remember when the old man was seriously ill half a year ago and needed an extremely precious medicinal herb to prolong his life?"

Assistant Cheng Jing didn't know why the young master suddenly brought up this matter, but he still nodded, "I remember, that medicinal herb was sold at the largest auction house in Beijing. The young master spent 100 million to acquire it."

"Didn't you notice that such priceless medicinal herbs were casually hung in the corner of her bare house?" Qi Huan said meaningfully.

That handful of medicinal herbs alone would be worth over a billion yuan at an auction in Beijing.

"What?" Qi Huan's words greatly shocked Cheng Jing.

From the moment he entered, he was indeed preoccupied with how dilapidated the doctor's place was, and he didn't notice such details at all.

Now he finally understood.

"Does the young master mean that her identity is not as simple as it seems on the surface?"

Qi Huan brought the purple flower in her hand to her nose and smelled it. "I don't know if her identity is simple or not, but her medical skills are definitely not simple."

Cheng Jing understood.

If what the young master says is true, then at least there is hope for the young master's legs.

but--

“If the young master only wants to cure his legs, he can spend a lot of money to have her treat him. There is no need to marry her.” Cheng Jing couldn’t help but ask the question that had been bothering him.

Qi Huan blinked, twirling the flower between her fingers, and smiled faintly, "Would you believe me if I said I fell in love with her at first sight?"

Cheng Jing was taken aback and looked at the young master's expression again in the rearview mirror.

His expression was calm, not like he was joking, but not necessarily serious either.

But the young master never liked to joke, so he wasn't sure how much of what the young master said was true and how much was false, so he just assumed that the young master was serious.

"letter."

"That's enough. In my heart, she is already my fiancée, and I must show her respect whenever I see her in the future."

"clear."

Qi Huan was indeed not joking.

He never believed in the idea that feelings develop over time when it comes to relationships between men and women.

If you don't feel anything at first sight with someone, the feelings that develop over time are just a result of weighing the pros and cons, rather than a heart-fluttering love.

Therefore, his agreement to his grandfather's arranged marriage with Jiang Yonghe was based on a careful consideration of the pros and cons.

But now, the moment he saw Jiang Youli, he felt the world spinning around him, as if everything around him had lost its color, and all he could see was her, a splash of color.

He couldn't explain why it had to be her.

Perhaps it was the moment their eyes met, that the dazzling stars in her eyes seemed to draw him into a vortex like a black hole.

Qi Huan picked up a book from the car, placed the small purple flower she was holding between the pages, gently closed the book, and shut her eyes.

……

eight pm.

Jiang Youli had just brought the medicinal herbs that had been drying on the roof back into her home when her cell phone rang.

She put down the winnowing basket, dusted off her hands, and answered the call.

Night Shadow's cold voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Boss, we found out. The Jiang family only has one daughter, Jiang Yonghe, born to the second master of the Jiang family, Jiang Yangxu, and his wife, Qin Yulian. She is the same age as you, and is very pampered at home. Two months ago, Jiang Yangxu arranged a good marriage for her, which was to marry Qi Huan, the eldest son of the Qi family, the most powerful family in Beijing. It is said that Qi Huan was originally designated as the heir of the Qi family by the Qi family patriarch, but unexpectedly, at the beginning of last month, Qi Huan had an accident and his legs were broken. The announcement of the heir was thus dropped."

What kind of person is Jiang Yonghe?

"She has a very good reputation, is both talented and beautiful, and is the ideal partner for many wealthy young men in Beijing. That's why she was able to win the favor of the patriarch of the Qi family, the most powerful family in Beijing, and agree to the marriage."

Is she both talented and beautiful?

I just don't know whether Jiang Yonghe's beautiful and enviable life came about legitimately or not.

"I understand. We'll investigate whether Jiang Yonghe is Jiang Yangxu and Qin Yulian's biological daughter."

"Why is the boss specifically investigating the Jiang family, especially Miss Jiang? What is he planning to do?"

"I plan to go back and meet my relatives."

At this point, Jiang Youli's deep eyes sparkled with interest.

The new identity of the Jiang family's true heiress in Beijing is quite interesting.

She has many identities.

The most common identity she uses is that of a female doctor selling medicine in a rural household.

Her daily routine consisted of accompanying her retired senior researchers in biological fields to cultivate new herbs and develop new medicinal materials in the village.

Over the years, she has cultivated twenty kinds of rare medicinal herbs.

Because of its extremely low production volume, the price is very high.

Each medicinal herb, if taken to the capital for auction, can earn anywhere from several million to hundreds of millions of yuan.

In addition, she is also proficient in traditional medical techniques. She treats ordinary people in rural towns and charges normal consultation fees. However, if she is commissioned by some prominent families to make a house call, a consultation fee of ten million is just the minimum.

Of course, she would guarantee that anyone treated by her would be cured, otherwise she would not charge a single penny for her services.

This one identity alone has already made her incredibly wealthy, and she treats money like dirt.

So it's ridiculous that her ex-boyfriend Zhang Jinghan... no, Duan Jinghan said she wasn't good enough for him, a rich young master.

It's ridiculous. If she wanted to, she could become an independent new wealthy family in Beijing, without having to rely on anyone or be at anyone's beck and call.

She's grown tired of all her previous identities over the years, and now it's time to experience a new one!

and……

She admitted that she greatly admired Qi Huan.

Of all the patients she has treated, none have been able to face the sudden change in her illness with such composure.

This man has such a strong mind; he is bound to become a powerful and influential figure in the future.

She is beautiful and capable, isn't it a pity that she has a disability in both legs?

Therefore, she will heal his legs.

Nightshade quickly understood her meaning, and her cool voice became somewhat urgent: "Understood, boss, I'll go investigate again right away."

……

late at night.

Jiang Youli was fast asleep when suddenly the sound of breaking wood came from outside the door.

She woke up with a start, turning her head to look outside.

She didn't make a sound when I came looking for her in the middle of the night, so the noise outside was most likely not from the villagers.

Beast?

She placed medicinal powder to repel wild animals inside and around the house, and almost no wild animals dared to approach.

It seems there are outside thieves.

Jiang Youli got up quietly and, using the moonlight, went to wait behind the door.

A moment later, the dilapidated wooden door was kicked open from the outside, and a dark figure rushed in.

Jiang Youli hadn't expected this thug to be so brutal. Instead of sneaking in, he grabbed a silver needle and threw it directly at the shadowy figure.

"Well……"

The dark figure let out a muffled groan and passed out.

Jiang Youli turned on the light, and the room was immediately illuminated.

She kicked the thug away and only then could she see his face clearly; he was obviously a vicious and ruthless person.

Jiang Youli picked up a bundle of rope, walked to the thug's side, bent down and tied his hands and feet.

After tying the assailant up, she took out a needle pouch and pricked the assailant's neck with it.

The assailant woke up shortly afterward.

Jiang Youli sat back on the bed, crossed her legs, and played with the silver needle in her hand. "If you don't want to suffer, then tell me honestly, who sent you?"

The criminal quickly realized the situation and said, "My employer and I made the deal in secret. Who would reveal their identity if they hired someone to kill someone? The other party promised that as long as I rape you, they would guarantee my safe smuggling out of the country."

Jiang Youli said "Oh," and her eyes suddenly turned fierce.

Smuggling out of the country?

It seems to be a fugitive.

The thug pleaded, "I've already been very sensible and told you everything I know. Let me go, and I won't do this deal anymore."

Jiang Youli nodded, "Okay."

She put down her crossed legs, walked to the thug's side, pulled out the silver needles from his body, and untied the ropes binding his hands and feet. "You can go now."

The thug rubbed his hands. "Okay..."

Before he could finish speaking, his expression suddenly changed, and he raised his leg to kick Jiang Youli's knee.

only--

The assailant had just lifted his foot when he felt a sharp pain in it, followed by numbness throughout his body, rendering him unable to move.

He looked down in horror and saw that his ankle had been bitten by a small black snake.

"Snake...how could there be a poisonous snake here..."

Before the thug could finish speaking, blood gushed from his throat, and his burly body fell straight backward to the ground. His limbs twitched a few times before he went still.

Jiang Youli sneered, "Trying to kill me on my own turf is just asking for trouble."

"Alright, Xiao Hei, go and rest."

The little black snake slithered into a dark corner and soon disappeared from sight.

Jiang Youli took a hoe, stuffed the thug's body into a basket, and carried it on her back as she walked out, seemingly without any effort.

She buried the assailant's body in the ground near her vegetable garden, as a way to provide nutrients for the herbs she was growing.

After disposing of the body, Jiang Youli took a deep breath, clapped her hands, and looked up at the increasingly complete moon overhead.

Ha, she just found out her identity and someone sent someone to rape her?

It seems this was a gift someone gave her in advance.
