From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 286: Bai Yurou, You Have No Value Anymore

Nan Qiao woke up and it was already three in the afternoon.

She glanced at the time and was confused—she had only slept for a while.

Nan Qiao hurriedly got up, very anxious.

"Li Yehan, why didn’t you wake me up?"

"Don’t worry, I called your secretary and told him you would be running late."

Nan Qiao: "..."

"Li Yehan, why didn’t you call me when you woke up? Don’t you have to work?"

Li Yehan got up, stood by Nan Qiao’s side, and washed his face to freshen up.

"I’ll drive you back to the company," Li Yehan said.

"No need, I can get back by myself."

Nan Qiao got ready, grabbed her bag, and left.

As she walked out, she noticed from the corner of her eye that the secretaries in their area were awkwardly keeping their heads down.

Nan Qiao suddenly felt like it was glaringly obvious.

Even though she hadn’t done anything, perhaps others were letting their minds wander.

...

When Nan Qiao arrived at the company, Secretary Fu said, "Mr. Qiao, a gentleman named Lan Qingran is looking for you."

Lan Qingran had come?

Nan Qiao walked on and entered the lounge.

As she pushed open the door, Nan Qiao saw Lan Qingran, whose skin was a bit dark.

Seeing Nan Qiao, Lan Qingran was overjoyed and walked up to her.

"Jingjing, long time no see."

"Brother Qingran, why didn’t you call me before coming? I would have gone to the airport to pick you up."

"I knew you were busy, so I didn’t tell you ahead of time. Jingjing, am I disturbing you?"

"Not at all," Nan Qiao said with a smile. "Brother Qingran, I’ll book a hotel for you and have someone pick you up to rest. Have you eaten yet? Should I take you out for a meal first?"

"I have eaten already."

Nan Qiao said, "Then I’ll have someone pick you up, and you can rest first. Tonight, I’ll treat you to a welcome dinner, how does that sound?"

Lan Qingran nodded, "Jingjing, I’ll go along with your plans."

Nan Qiao began contacting hotel staff to arrange for a car to pick up Lan Qingran.

After seeing him off in the car, Nan Qiao then returned to her office.

Just as she sat down, Rong Miao called.

"Sister Qiaoqiao, thank you so much!"

Nan Qiao asked in confusion, "Miaomiao, thank me for what?"

"The advice you gave me last time, after I made the changes, the song I wrote was picked up by the artist I like, Bai Yan. They want to discuss a collaboration with me this weekend, I’m so excited."

Bai Yan?

Isn’t that Third Brother’s stage name?

Nan Qiao did not disclose Third Brother’s identity: "Miaomiao, you’re amazing."

"Sister Qiao, it’s all thanks to your help. I want to invite you out for a meal, are you free on Saturday?"

"Miaomiao, I’m sorry, I’m a bit busy this week. A friend has come from far away, and I need to show him around first."

Rong Miao wasn’t upset and cheerfully said, "Sister Qiao, maybe next time then. Let me know when you’re free, I’d like to treat you to a meal."

"Sure."

"Sister Qiao, I won’t disturb you anymore, I have to go to class now."

After hanging up, Nan Qiao received another call, this time from Xiao Wang at the police station.

Xiao Wang said, "Bai Yurou’s condition is very strange; although she injured her leg, medical examinations revealed that all her internal organs are damaged."

Nan Qiao was shocked: "How can that be."

Xiao Wang said, "We’ve had someone with her at every meal and there’s no chance she could have been poisoned."

"I’ll come over to see for myself."

Nan Qiao hung up, grabbed her bag, and headed out.

"Secretary Fu, I’m stepping out. Handle whatever you can, and call me if there’s anything you can’t."

"Okay, Qiaoqiao."

Fu Xingyao watched as Nan Qiao hurriedly left and felt a bit worried.

...

Nan Qiao arrived at the hospital where Xiao Wang was waiting for her.

As soon as Nan Qiao walked in, someone called out to her.

"Qiaoqiao."

The familiar voice surprised Nan Qiao.

"Li Yehan, why are you here too?"

"Xiao Wang also informed me." He had always been paying attention to anything related to Nan Qiao.

Nan Qiao and Li Yehan walked inside together, arriving at Bai Yurou’s hospital room.

...

Bai Yurou lay on the hospital bed, her face pale and haggard, looking as if she were about to die.

Xiao Wang said, "Today at noon, after Bai Yurou ate, she vomited again, and even vomited some blood."

Nan Qiao stepped forward, sat on the chair beside the bed, and stretched out her hand to check Bai Yurou’s pulse.

At that moment, Bai Yurou’s hand suddenly emerged from under the covers, holding a piece of porcelain.

Nan Qiao reacted quickly and was just about to evade when Li Yehan, standing beside her, wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her backward.

Nan Qiao remained unharmed, and Li Yehan kicked the porcelain shard away.

Xiao Wang saw this and was also startled.

"Damn it, how did she get a piece of broken porcelain?"

Xiao Wang then remembered that before mealtime, Bai Yurou had been fussing about wanting rice vermicelli with meat. They had sent someone to buy a bowl.

During the meal, Bai Yurou suddenly couldn’t hold the bowl, and it fell and broke.

It was then that Bai Yurou had hidden a piece of the porcelain, ready to attack Nan Qiao at any moment.

Bai Yurou lay propped up on the bed, in a sorry state.

She glared at Nan Qiao angrily, "I didn’t kill you; you’re just lucky."

Nan Qiao scoffed, "Indeed, my fate is better than yours."

Bai Yurou coughed up fresh blood, her condition looking even more severe.

Li Yehan coldly spoke, "Why not kill her now? There’s no useful information we can get from her, and it might as well let her die."

Bai Yurou laughed loudly, her mocking voice filled with confidence, "Li Yehan, Nan Qiao wouldn’t let me die; she still wants to dig secrets out of me. How could she let me die?"

Nan Qiao faintly smiled, "Really? Bai Yurou, do you think you are that important?"

Bai Yurou didn’t believe what Nan Qiao said. She leaned on the bed, raised her head, and glared fiercely at Nan Qiao, "Nan Qiao, weren’t you planning to hypnotize me to extract useful information from my mouth?"

Nan Qiao sat on the chair, sizing up Bai Yurou, "Do you really think you are that valuable? Bai Yurou, I was in the middle of hypnotizing you when you suddenly started vomiting blood. Do you know why?"

"Why?"

"Because someone had placed a poisonous insect inside your body, and once you lose your value, it will bite through your organs." freēwēbnovel.com

Bai Yurou was stunned. She still didn’t believe what Nan Qiao had said.

The person had been so kind to her; how could he bear to hurt her?

Bai Yurou shook her head, her emotions running high, and she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"Nan Qiao, don’t try to deceive me!"

"Whether I am deceiving you or not, you know very well. After you were captured, no one came to rescue you."

Bai Yurou roared, "He would be walking into a trap if he tried to rescue me!"

"And what about your body?" Nan Qiao laughed, "Don’t you feel that your organs are in pain? Not just now, but lying on the bed feeling like worse than death, right? Bai Yurou, you’re just deceiving yourself."

Nan Qiao stood up, "Xiao Wang, we can’t get any useful information from her mouth, so do what needs to be done."

Bai Yurou’s life wasn’t worth keeping.

Such a person, alive she’s a waste of air, dead she’s a waste of land.

Nan Qiao and Li Yehan walked out, and Bai Yurou’s eyes widened as she shouted loudly, "Nan Qiao, Nan Qiao come back!"
