âWill Ming Jing come?
Sheâs so smart, will she see through her plan?
No, this is Jingzhou, not Jiangzhou. Here, no one can help her.
As long as she steps in here tonight, she will never be able to walk out with a clean conscience.
You claim to be pure and noble, how can you maintain that calm demeanor once youâve been dragged through the mud? Letâs see.
As Zhu Xiangxiang thought this, someone pushed the door and walked in, and she immediately stood up.
âMing Jing, I thought you wouldnât come.â Zhu Xiangxiang looked at the girl who walked in, her white skirt as dazzling as ever.
Ming Jing walked in and asked, âWhy choose this place for our meeting?â
Zhu Xiangxiang smiled, âA friend of mine is a senior member here. The service is good, private, and perfect for discussing business.â
Ming Jing nodded, walked over, and sat down after brushing her skirt.
âYou said you were going to tell me about my background. Thereâs no one else here, so just say whatever you have to.â
Zhu Xiangxiang squinted her eyes, âZhu Mingjing, no, youâre not even a Zhu. You can deceive others but not me. Youâre not the real heiress of the Zhus.â
She stared intently at Ming Jing, only to see that the girl sat with her back straight, a calm smile on her face. Despite being exposed, she showed no panic, even making Zhu Xiangxiang feel slightly uneasy at the bottom of her heart.
âPeople accuse me of stealing your life, but youâre the one who is fake. Do you dare to admit it?â
Ming Jing raised her eyebrows, looking at her with a smile.
That clear and bright gaze made Zhu Xiangxiangâs heart skip a beat.
Why can she still be so calm? What is she relying on?
Is it because sheâs sure no one will ever find out?
This is just an appetizer. One day, sheâll expose her disguise in front of the whole world.
Ming Jing neither denied nor confirmed it.
She smiled and nodded, âWhereâs the evidence?â
Zhu Xiangxiang sneered, âEvidence? You already knew about the private detectiveâs secret investigation at Jiyue Temple. Both you and Ming Xin fit the profile, so the detective stole strands of hair from both of you for testing. You cleverly swapped your hairs in advance. A masterful move.â
The girlâs ethereal voice seemed to echo in the empty room, each word like a heavy mountain, weighing down on her heart.
Zhu Xiangxiangâs hand holding the water cup paused, almost spilling the water.
Feeling inexplicably panicked, her heart raced with unease.
âWhat...what are you talking about?â Zhu Xiangxiang asked, confused.
The girl opposite her wore a white dress, and the lotus flowers on its hem seemed to come to life, shining with an unattainable, sacred beauty.
The girl smiled faintly, âYou have no Buddha nature.â
Zhu Xiangxiang sneered in her heart, not caring about becoming a nun. Always acting mysterious and unpredictable, who was she trying to scare?
Ming Jing shook her head helplessly, âThis is your last chance.â
Unfortunately, she had no Buddha nature, and everything had already been determined.
Ming Jing lifted the water cup and took a small sip.
Zhu Xiangxiang smirked and lifted her water cup.
âItâs getting late. I should go back.â Ming Jing put down the water cup and stood up.
As soon as she stood up, her body swayed suddenly. She frowned at Zhu Xiangxiang, âYou...â
Zhu Xiangxiang smiled, âI know youâre always on guard. Donât worry, thereâs nothing in this water cup. Just have a good sleep. When you wake up, everything will be fine...haha.â
Seeing Ming Jing faint on the sofa, Zhu Xiangxiang laughed and slapped her face. Her eyes were crazy and vicious, âYouâre finally in my hands. Iâve waited for this day for too long.â
Han Yue knocked on the door from outside and opened a crack, âIs it done?â
Han Yue entered and saw the unconscious girl on the sofa, astonished.
âNo wonder Honghong has been thinking about her for so long. Sheâs truly stunning. Itâs worth taking some risks.â Han Yue exclaimed.
She had never seen a girl who was still so beautiful when asleep.
Zhu Xiangxiang stood up and said, âLetâs begin.â
The two carried Ming Jing, one on each side, and opened a hidden door nearby. Inside was a bedroom with an enormous waterbed, exuding a seductive atmosphere under the dim, ambiguous lighting.
Zhu Xiangxiang threw Ming Jing on the waterbed and sneered, âEnjoy the gift Iâve prepared for you, Zhu Mingjing.â
Han Yue said, âYou watch her. Iâll go find Honghong.â She then left hurriedly.
