Mr. Gu, Your Replacement Bride Is A Big Shot! Chapter 71

Chapter 71 - Wang Lin

Qiao Xin wasn’t completely stupid. Worried that she would give herself away, she hurriedly lowered her head.

However, her mind was in a mess. She had to investigate what exactly had happened back then.

“Actually, this pendant doesn’t belong to my sister. I just wanted to test if Brother-in-law would misunderstand my sister. Brother-in-law, I was really just joking…” Qiao Xin said, her expression serious.

At this moment, Qiao Nian was looking at Lu Zhu expressionlessly. She tried hard to suppress the inexplicable affection she felt for Lu Zhu.

Gu Zhou gave Qiao Xin a meaningful look. As if he was an outsider, he explained impassively, “This pendant is very important to him.”

“This pendant was from five years ago, during the autumn season…” Qiao Xin made up her mind and stepped forward. Smiling at Qiao Nian, she was just about to spill everything when she was interrupted by hurried footsteps…

“Second Young Master!” Su Xue hurried into the room anxiously.

“Who are you…” Frowning, Lu Zhu looked toward the woman.

“Mr. Lu, this is my mother.” Qiao Xin thought to herself about how fortunate it was that she had called Su Xue before she arrived. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to handle this situation alone.

“Mom, why are you here?” Qiao Xin turned to look at Su Xue, pretending not to know anything. She looked innocent and harmless.

Seeing how sweet and obedient Qiao Xin was, Su Xue’s eyes couldn’t help but turn red. She began to speak in a persuading manner. “Xinxin, we’ve already hidden that matter from everyone for five years. We can’t keep it a secret anymore.”

Qiao Nian, who was standing to the side, frowned slightly. She didn’t think Su Xue would tell the truth about the evil acts she had carried out back then.

But Qiao Xin hadn’t understood. She looked at Su Xue in utter shock, disbelief written all over her face. “Mom!”

“I know that you and Wang Lin are close friends, but how can you beat those big shots yourself?”

When Gu Zhou heard the name “Wang Lin”, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

“Mom!” Qiao Xin had no idea who Wang Lin was. She looked at Su Xue in confusion.

Su Xue tugged at Qiao Xin’s arm and said sternly, “For some things, it’s better to tell the truth as it is. Five years ago, Wang Lin was drugged, and someone assaulted her, ruining her purity. After that, she died in childbirth. I know you’ve always wanted to find the person who hurt your friend, and avenge her, but we have to act within our means!”

Qiao Nian stood coldly at the side. She felt that Su Xue must truly be talented at making things up. Wasn’t Su Xue afraid that Lu Zhu would investigate this matter?

Su Xue pulled Qiao Xin behind her, giving a helpless sigh. “Mr. Lu, Xinxin and Wang Lin were good friends. Xin Xin has always wanted to avenge her, so she tends to spout nonsense. I’ll definitely prevent her from spouting nonsense in the future.”

Lu Zhu toyed with the pendant in his hand and asked seriously, “So you’re saying that… the girl from that night five years ago was Wang Lin?”

“Yes, yes, yes. We didn’t know that this pendant was yours either. If we had known…”

Before Su Xue could finish her sentence, Lu Zhu interrupted her.

“Did anyone say this pendant was mine?” Lu Zhu placed the pendant on the coffee table. His voice was cool and pleasant to the ear.

Qiao Nian looked at Lu Zhu in shock.

“That night, I drank too much. Someone took my pendant. I didn’t expect that person to commit such acts and use this pendant as an identifier.” Lu Zhu frowned, his expression displeased.

Qiao Xin inhaled. Fortunately, she hadn’t blurted out that she herself was the woman from five years ago. Otherwise, in the eyes of everyone, wouldn’t her purity be ruined?

Hearing Lu Zhu’s words, Qiao Nian lowered her gaze in disappointment. It seemed that it would truly be difficult to find that person.

Su Xue was the first to react. After exchanging a few more pleasantries, she congratulated Lu Zhu on finding the pendant. Then, she pulled Qiao Xin away to leave.

“Hold on.” Gu Zhou glared at Qiao Xin coldly.

Qiao Xin and Su Xue both turned to look at Gu Zhou.

“Were you friends with Wang Lin?” Gu Zhou looked calmly at Qiao Xin..

Five years ago, Qiao Nian was schemed against by her sister, Qiao Xin. After spending a night with a stranger, Qiao Nian got pregnant. She did not know who the father of the child was, and eventually gave birth to a stillborn. Under the machinations of her mother and sister, Qiao Nian was stripped off of her shares in Qiao Group and sent to a mental hospital.

Five years later, her younger sister, Qiao Xin, was going to be married off to the Second Young Master of the Gu family. He was rumored to be extremely ugly. On the day he was born, the doctor predicted that he would not live past twenty years old. Her mother could not bear to see Qiao Xin marry such a person and thought of Qiao Nian, who was still locked in the mental hospital. Overnight, Qiao Nian was taken out of the hospital to replace Qiao Xin in her marriage into the Gu family.

Her mother said, "It's a good thing that Qiao Nian, this good-for-nothing, can replace Xin'er to be a living widow in the Gu family. If Xin'er were to marry into that family, I would be heartbroken."

Qiao Xin said, "Mom, don't say that about Sister. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't know what to do. I'm just worried that Sister wouldn't agree."

Her father said, "Xin'er, you're too kind. Have you forgotten how Qiao Nian slandered you five years ago? She has no self-restraint. She got pregnant before marriage and even gave birth to a stillborn child. We're treating her well enough by letting her marry someone from the prestigious Gu family! What right does she have to be picky?"

Qiao Nian sneered. Back then, the scheme against her had only succeeded due to a freak combination of factors, causing her to suffer. She was going to get back at all of them! Everyone thought that her actions were borne from a combination of a loser's mentality and mental illness, but little did they know that this marriage would be a strong union as impactful as Mars crashing into Earth! Taking advantage of her brilliant skills in medicine, Qian Nian made various trashy people and scumbags eat their words. In the blink of an eye, her multiple identities shocked the world as each of them got exposed. It turned out that she was rich enough to rival a country!

Later on, Second Young Master Gu placed a pair of Qiao Nian's miniature clones in front of her. Faced with these two children who resembled her and Gu Zhou, Qiao Nian blinked in shock. "When did I give birth to your children?"
