Breaking news!

I almost couldn't hold back my "Holy shit!"

This Wang family is truly ruthless; he's been scheming for decades.

Wang Jiadong's father and his wife's father, also known as Old Master Wang, were half-brothers.

The two brothers built their business together in Hong Kong, but unfortunately, Wang Jiadong's father died young, leaving behind two sons, one of whom was Wang Jiadong.

The businesses under his name were also seized by the current Mr. Wang.

Wang Jiadong firmly believed that Old Master Wang had harmed his father. After learning that Old Master Wang wanted to find a husband for his only daughter, he seduced her.

They wanted to reclaim their family property and take revenge on Old Master Wang.

What true love? That's outrageous!

Putting aside these fascinating gossips, Shu Ran also saw a lot of evidence that could quickly bring down Wang Jiadong. If she picked any one of them and gave it to his enemies, they would be sure to be ousted within a month.

There were too many people at the banquet, so I only glanced at a few pages and didn't look at them in detail.

Qi Jing quietly came over from the side; she was a little late because of some family matters.

"He's actually quite good-looking!"

Qi Jing made a dignified comment and then took a small sip of champagne.

"Why did you come?"

She promised to come, but Shu Ran has been here for ages and still hasn't seen her.

“My boyfriend had something come up, and my uncle was also coming over to return a favor to Wang Jiadong.”

Qi Jing watched the stage with great interest.

Turning her head, she saw the uncle that Qi Jing kept talking about.

This is the heir of the Qi family in this generation.

He was of a high generation, but not very old. He did indeed look like the gentle and refined gentleman Qi Jing had described.

Qi Ruichuan smiled, his gentle expression seemingly welded to his face, but his eyes held a cold glint.

Smiling tiger!

This was Shu Ran's first impression.

She nodded to the man as a greeting, then turned back to look at the stage and the area around her.

Qian Xinyi has disappeared, but Shu Ran doesn't care.

She looks very different now than when she was a child, and she's not worried about being recognized by the Qian family.

Moreover, the Qian family might not even remember what she looked like.

[Check-in Task 2: Please say five sentences to Qi Ruichuan. Task Reward: All information about the Qian family.]

Shu Ran's gaze froze. The mission was so absurd. What did the Qian family have to do with her? They had nothing to do with each other for a long time.

If she wanted to know about the Qian family, she could just send someone to investigate. It's not like Wang Jiadong's family, whose background is so complex and difficult to investigate.

Ignoring the task, Shu Ran turned to Qi Jing and whispered gossip.

[Given the player's negative attitude towards the mission, the reward has been changed to: Qi Jing's Secret (I am unaware of the version)!]

What does that mean? Shu Ran, who has read countless books, instantly had a bunch of melodramatic plots flash through her mind.

The phrase "real or fake heiress" is the first thing that comes to mind.

Is it appropriate to pry into a friend's secrets?

But this is a secret she herself doesn't know; perhaps it would be better to be prepared.

Shu Ran hesitated.

"Ranran, look! That one over there is from outside. She's not that pretty!"

Qi Jing was puzzled; she wasn't even as young and beautiful as Aunt Wang Wei!

What are you picturing?

This is definitely true love!

Let's put this task aside for now and just let things take their course with this second task!

Putting the task aside, Shu Ran couldn't hold back any longer. Sharing gossip is better than sharing it, so she picked out some interesting stories about the Wang family to share with Qi Jing and Gou Zixun.

"That was really fancy!"

Gou Zixun stroked his chin and sighed.

"They've got a knack for creating chaos!"

Qi Jing also sighed, saying that although her father was a womanizer and had seven or eight concubines, he always brought them in openly and never made any promises he couldn't keep.

A glint of cunning flashed in Qi Ruichuan's eyes: "Miss Shu seems to know quite a lot? You're very well-informed."

Shu Ran replied with a smile, "Uncle Qi is joking. I just happened to send someone to investigate Wang Chenglin of the Wang family. I didn't expect to dig so deep."

“I heard Jingjing mention that Wang Chenglin from the Wang family caused you some trouble.”

Having just returned from abroad two days ago, Gou Zixun was completely bewildered upon hearing the news. He looked at Shu Ran with a puzzled expression and asked, "What happened? Do you need any help?"

Qi Ruichuan wasn't annoyed by being interrupted and continued good-naturedly, "Miss Shu, please feel free to ask if you need any help. You are my Jingjing's best friend, and I will definitely help you if I can."

Qi Jing nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, Ranran, just say the word if you need any help. My uncle is a really nice guy."

Shu Ran pursed her lips slightly, explained the situation to Gou Zixun first, and then had time to talk to Qi Ruichuan.

She always felt that Qi Ruichuan had ulterior motives towards Jingjing.

However, Qi Jing still admired her uncle very much. Shu Ran looked at the new reward for Task 2 again and decided to say a few more words to complete the task.

After a few casual words, Shu Ran easily completed Task 2 and received the reward.

Before she could even check, it was already over, so Shu Ran had to put aside her curiosity for the time being.

After the banquet, Qi Jing went home with her uncle, and Gou Zixun also took Shu Ran home.

"When are you going to Country Y? Come along!"

A cool breeze suddenly rose, causing Shu Ran's skirt to flutter slightly as she walked back to the car, revealing a section of her fair calves.

Gou Zixun was a little nervous and draped his coat over Shu Ran's shoulders.

"Okay! I plan to go there later this month, I'll call you then."

Shu Ran pulled her suit jacket tighter around her shoulders, somewhat puzzled. It was only August, why was the weather already getting cold? It seemed she would need to wear a light jacket next time she went out at night.

Sitting in the car, Shu Ran closed her eyes to review the documents.

He didn't notice Gou Zixun sitting next to him, and hesitated to speak, his face turning red.

Shu Ran didn't know what to say. It wasn't a fake heiress drama; she had guessed wrong from the start.

But it's also quite outrageous.

Qi Jing is not a member of the Qi family by blood. Only Qi Jing's current father knows this, and her uncle may also know a little bit about it.

Qi's mother may have guessed something, but she was indulging in self-deception.

When Qi's mother gave birth, she had a difficult childbirth. Because of Qi's father's emotional debt, the child could not be saved and died not long after birth.

At the time, Qi's mother was in a very unstable mental state, and we were afraid of upsetting her.

Coincidentally, there was a newborn baby girl who had been abandoned that day, so Qi's father took her home and told Qi's mother that the child had been saved.

It wasn't too melodramatic, but then, a twist occurred.

Qi Ruichuan is a pervert; he likes Qi Jing!

He suppressed his feelings because of blood ties, but he sensed something and kept seeking evidence that Qi Jing was not a member of the Qi family.

It's pseudo-orthopedics, just like something out of a novel!

Shu Ran opened her eyes and saw Gou Zixun face to face with her, only a palm's width apart.

She instinctively pushed the person away; she wasn't used to people being so close to her, especially close enough to feel their breath.

"What are you doing?"

bump--

He used too much force and lost control, and Gou Zixun's head hit the glass window behind him.
