Chapter 153: Killing Two Birds with One Stone
That night at the Mu family.
“How did it go? Did Long Feiting believe your words?” Lin Qingya asked.
Lin Qingya was doted on by Mrs. Gu and went to the Gu family’s house often. Once, she overheard Mrs. Gu telling Gu Chenyi’s father that Feiting had entered Yun University for the sake of looking for a girl called Song Xing.
As Lin Qingya was once a very good friend of Mu Huan, she knew that Mu Huan often used the alias “Song Xing” when she was outside. Therefore, she took note of that information.
When Gu Chenyi’s father had gone to work, she pretended to be curious and asked Mrs. Gu why Long Feiting was looking for a girl named Song Xing.
Mrs. Gu told her what happened that year when Long Feiting was kidnapped, brought into the mountains of Yun Cheng, and saved by an 11-year-old girl. However, he couldn’t find the lady after the incident and could remember only the girl’s eyes. All these details were told to Lin Qingya.
Lin Qingya grew up with Mu Huan and had always been her best friend. She knew every matter that happened to Mu Huan from when they were young until now. Therefore, she naturally knew and remembered clearly the huge incident when Mu Huan was kidnapped by the human traffickers.
Mu Huan had once told her about the entire process of her kidnapping incident. She was instantly sure that Mu Huan was the Song Xing that Long Feiting was looking for!
This left her utterly stunned.
Based on the meaning behind Mrs. Gu’s words, it seemed like Song Xing was very important to Long Feiting. If he could find her, he would definitely offer her his entire family’s assets.
If he were to find out that Mu Huan was Song Xing, she would have an even more resplendent life that could not be suppressed!
Therefore, after thinking about it, she eventually decided to find Matriarch Mu and asked Mu Kexin to impersonate Mu Huan.
This way, she could ruin Mu Huan’s second chance at having a bright life. Secondly, as she had used and plotted against Bai Xuexian previously, leaving the Mu family extremely dissatisfied with her, they had been looking for a chance to destroy her. If she let Mu Kexin pretend to be Mu Huan, it meant that she’d have something to use against the Mu family. Therefore, they would not dare to ruin her.
It was killing two birds with one stone!
Lin Qingya knew that Matriarch Mu could see through her intentions. However, she knew Matriarch Mu’s greed well enough. For the sake of making the Mu family even better, she would definitely agree in order to catch a huge fish like Long Feiting.
Indeed, Matriarch Mu eventually agreed to it.
“He probably believed half of it. But he still has his doubts and will definitely investigate to confirm it,” Mu Kexin said.
“Then it is more or less settled. For this period, all you have to do is to attend school obediently. Do not get close to Long Feiting or discuss with people about him. Treat him like a crazy passerby, that’s all.”
“I know,” Mu Kexin said indifferently.
Her indifference left Lin Qingya and Matriarch Mu extremely surprised.
Mu Kexin was a brainless girl with a small chest who only knew how to make a din all day long. Although her looks were only decent, she found herself to be exceptionally beautiful, as if any man who saw her would be enchanted by her.
Matriarch Mu and Lin Qingya were worried about asking her to do something like this. Despite training her for a long time, they were still apprehensive that night, afraid that she would spoil it. They did not expect that she would perform so well and still remain so indifferent about it!
“Kexin, it seems like you have finally grown up,” Matriarch Mu said in a gratified manner.
When Lin Qingya had looked for her to make a deal and told her about the plan, she was extremely hesitant about it because she thought Mu Kexin would not be able to do it. However, she was reluctant to give up on a big fish like Long Feiting. In addition, if Long Feiting found out that Mu Huan was the Song Xing he was looking for, Mu Huan would become Long Feiting’s life savior. The things she had to suppress about her would no longer be important.
