The advertisement that Ye Qingkong shot was for a luxury skincare product.
The price of a complete set of this brand’s product was about the same as a housing unit in some smaller cities.
The economy of the Empire was growing at a breakneck pace right now. In the future, the Empire would become the largest consumer market in the world.
Strictly speaking, there was absolutely no problem with a foreign skincare product company attempting to penetrate the Empire’s market right now.
However, that face that’s exactly the same as Ye Linlang when she was younger?
Was that true?
Ye Tianxin examined that face carefully. She was trying to discern whether this face had gone through plastic surgery before.
If there were no signs of plastic surgery, that would mean that her face was original and organic.
An organic face that was identical to Ye Linlang… That’s just a testament to the miraculous craftsmanship of the Lord.
However, what if it was an artificial face that had gone through plastic surgery?
“Tianxin.”
Ye Linlang heard Ye Tianxin’s phone ring, but Ye Tianxin looked like she didn’t hear it at all. Ye Linlang reached out her hand and nudged Ye Tianxin lightly.
Ye Tianxin was startled for a moment before she regained her senses and looked at the humming phone.
“Zhichen?”
On the other end, Jing Zhichen was also worried that the appearance of Ye Qingkong wasn’t a coincidence.
He asked anxiously from the other side of the line, “Tianxin, have you seen the documents that I sent you? Don’t you think that this woman looked exactly the same as your mother?”
“Yes, I saw it.”
Jing Zhichen lived in a very different environment from a young age. Children that grew up in those types of environments tend to have an instinctive premonition of danger.
He hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, “Tianxin, do you think… she might be one of X’s people?”
“I don’t know either.”
Ye Tianxin didn’t know what goals Ye Qingkong had for appearing.
However, it didn’t matter who she was working for.
Regardless of what objectives she had, Ye Tianxin believed that someday, she would surely reveal her true identity and motives.
“Shall we go find her? Meet her?”
Ye Tianxin shook her head and answered, “There’s no need to. If she is targeting us, then all we need to do is to wait patiently. Wait for her to come to us, nothing else is important.”
Jing Zhichen instantly understood what Ye Tianxin meant.
He laughed heartily.
“That’s true. Besides, auntie doesn’t look like this anymore. Even if she had that face, she wouldn’t be able to do anything. It’s not like she can use that face to come to auntie and claim to be her daughter right?”
Upon hearing what Jing Zhichen said, Ye Tianxin thought, Well that’s not completely impossible.
Who the heck knows what these people are trying to do?
“Zhichen, I think it’s best to get our guys to follow her for the time being.”
Regardless of what they did, they had to think of everything.
Just in case something actually happened, they wouldn’t be caught off guard.
Otherwise, it could be really troublesome.
“All right, no problem.”
…
Ye Qingkong sat in the garden in front of the mansion as she looked at the buildings in the distance.
As the gentle breeze brushed across the surface of the lake, ripples formed and slowly radiated throughout the lake.
Ye Qingkong reached her hand up and gently pushed the fringe dangling beside her temple back behind her ear.
“Miss, it’s time for your afternoon tea.”
The servants in the mansion brought one after another exquisite dessert out and placed them on the iron sculpted table in front of Ye Qingkong.
The fragrance of the tea slowly diffused in the air along with the gentle breeze.
The snacks before her looked extremely enticing.
Ye Qingkong took over the disinfected towel and slowly wiped her hands clean.
“Miss, it’s a call from the Young Master.”
Ye Qingkong picked up the phone and said softly, “Brother.”
“How are you? Do you feel like you’re returning home after going back to that familiar place?”
