Chapter 303: 303 Dreams come true
"Where... where are we going?"
Zhou Nannan wiped the corners of her eyes, looking anxiously at Qing Yi.
Even though she was just an ordinary person, she could still feel that Qing Yi was on a whole different level, towering above her like Mount Everest.
There was no way she could have any connection with someone like this, the only possibility was the half piece of the jade pendant.
Thinking of this, Zhou Nannan quickly spoke in a weak voice, "Are you here for that half of the jade pendant? I'll return it to you!"
Ever since Qing Yi had visited the hotel to see the jade pendant two days ago, Zhou Nannan had been regretting it. She shouldn't have coveted a small advantage and stolen someone else's jade pendant, and now, they had come to her door.
She had kept the half piece of the jade pendant in her bag, ready to return it to Qing Yi at any time.
"There's no need to return it, the jade pendant originally belongs to you. Get in the car first and we'll talk!"
Qing Yi looked at Zhou Nannan and said indifferently.
In the past two days, she had sent someone to revisit Wutong Town to investigate Zhou Nannan's life, starting from her time in kindergarten all the way until she got married and had children.
And they even checked all her classmates and relatives to understand the impression Zhou Nannan had left on them.
In the end, they concluded that Zhou Nannan wasn't very cultured, but she was vain, making her easy to manipulate. Enjoy exclusive chapters from My Virtual Library Empire
As for whether she was really the Family Head's biological daughter, did it matter?
As long as she had that half of the jade pendant, that was enough.
A few more years and when the Family Head grew old, wouldn't the Qin Family still be at Qing Yi's command?
This move was clearly more sophisticated and safer than Zhao Heng's 'kill to silence.'
Otherwise, if the biological daughter "died," the Family Head would certainly investigate the matter.
"Oh...."
Zhou Nannan dared not resist and opened the car door to sit in the Audi.
"Zhao Heng, head to the best image design center in East Sea!"
Qing Yi said to the driver, Zhao Heng.
"Yes, Miss!"
Zhao Heng nodded.
"Why... are you taking me to an image design center?"
Zhou Nannan was a bit confused and didn't understand what Qing Yi was planning.
"Your current image doesn't match your identity!"
Qing Yi turned back and said.
Even inside the car, she still wore a black mask, revealing only a pair of cold eyes that seemed capable of seeing right through a person.
"My identity?"
Zhou Nannan was even more bewildered, bowing her head slightly, not daring to meet Qing Yi's gaze.
"Yes, your true identity is ten thousand times more nobler than your current one!"
Qing Yi nodded.
"Ah?"
Zhou Nannan was stunned.
Could dreams actually turn into reality?
She often read novels and watched short videos, envying the plot where a lost young lady was eventually taken back by her wealthy parents.
She had also fantasized that perhaps she was a wealthy heiress abandoned by a grand family, and one day, they would come to take her back.
And then in one night, she'd transform from a little sparrow into a golden phoenix!
"What you're saying... is it true? You aren't just people making a prank video, are you?"
A few seconds after being astonished, Zhou Nannan looked at Qing Yi with a mix of suspicion and hope and asked.
"It's absolutely true. You are the only daughter of the current Family Head of the Qin Family in Capital City, and the proof is that half piece of the jade pendant!"
Qing Yi nodded again.
"Ah, I... I....."
Zhou Nannan was trembling with excitement, although she did not know exactly how powerful the Qin Family of Capital City was, but just the words "Capital City" sounded so prestigious.
For a moment, her mind went blank, and she felt so weak that she nearly fainted.
Just a few minutes ago, she had been humbly begging someone she really disliked for the sake of her son's schooling, and now, mere minutes later, someone was telling her she was the only beloved daughter of the Qin Family from Capital City?
It was too fantastical, too hard to believe!
"However, I can take you back to Capital City, or I can choose not to, because there are many details about this matter that don't stand up to scrutiny, don't you think?"
Qing Yi said with an insinuating tone, looking at Zhou Nannan.
"This....."
Zhou Nannan also became somewhat sober, right, she was already twenty-five or twenty-six years old, and her mother had never mentioned anything about the Qin Family from Capital City, so how could someone suddenly come out of the blue to take her back to Capital City?
"And this jade pendant, is it really yours?"
Qing Yi's gaze was sharp and discerning; from Zhou Nannan's evasive language and her guilty expression, one could deduce that the jade pendant was probably not truly hers.
"I.... I....."
Zhou Nannan was chilled to the bone under Qing Yi's sharp gaze, and she really wanted to admit that she had stolen the jade pendant, but she couldn't bear to let go of the identity as "the precious daughter of the Qin Family."
Even if it was all a dream, she wasn't ready to wake up.
"Swish...."
While Zhou Nannan was in a quandary, a bright idea suddenly flashed through her mind, and she gathered her courage to look at Qing Yi and said, "As long as you take me back to Capital City, I.... will do whatever you say!"
"Hehe....."
Qing Yi laughed.
This was exactly the effect she had wanted to see.
No matter who Zhou Nannan really was, as long as she had this half piece of jade pendant, she was the Family Head's biological daughter.
"So, can you now tell me, how did you get this half piece of jade pendant?"
Qing Yi was actually quite curious as to how Zhou Nannan had gotten that half piece of jade pendant.
"It.... it was when I was working as a car washer, I found it!"
Zhou Nannan knew that whether she could become "the precious daughter of the Qin Family" depended entirely on the woman in front of her, so she dared not hide anything and told the truth.
Only, she turned "stolen" into "found."
"Oh, you are quite lucky."
Qing Yi's voice carried a hint of amusement, and after saying so in a casual tone, she shook her phone: "I've recorded it, you found the jade pendant. If, after you get to Capital City, you feel like you can spread your wings and oppose me, I can send you from heaven to hell at any time!"
"Ah.... no, I won't...."
Zhou Nannan quickly shook her head, very aware that Qing Yi wanted her to be an obedient dog.
But even so, it was still better than being an ordinary Cinderella, wasn't it?
"Good, then let's go over it again now, you were adopted by your parents when you were little, and you've had this piece of jade pendant since you were little. As for the rest, just play dumb when asked!"
Qing Yi said persuasively.
"I've got it. But what if they want to do a DNA parentage test?"
Zhou Nannan suddenly thought of an important issue – a DNA test would expose her as an impostor, wouldn't it?
"Leave that to me. In this world, there's no one who can't be bought, unless the price isn't high enough!"
Qing Yi narrowed her eyes as she spoke.
There were only three people in the car, her, Zhou Nannan, and Zhao Heng, so she spoke without any reservation.
"Then I will do whatever you say!"
Zhou Nannan nodded.
"No, in public, you must have your own opinion, you are the Family Head's biological daughter, with a higher status than me. If you do whatever I say in everything, the Family Head will become suspicious, and no one who can become the head of a big family clan in Capital City is a fool!"
Qing Yi frowned slightly as she reminded Zhou Nannan.
"I understand, in private, I will certainly do whatever you say!"
Zhou Nannan promised once again.
