From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love
Chapter 156: Is the Identity Exposed?

Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Is the Identity Exposed?

Nan Qiao hadn’t seen this man before. Seeing him standing at the door, she softly asked, "Are you here to see Doctor Zheng Qinnian?"

The stranger said, "I’m here to find you."

Nan Qiao stood up and walked towards the entrance. Chen Xinwan also stood up and followed behind her.

Bai Yurou couldn’t sit still either, trailing behind the two of them, curious to explore the situation.

This middle-aged man gave Nan Qiao the impression that he was no ordinary individual.

Every action he took was reminiscent of that of a mercenary.

"Miss Nan Qiao, hello. Our master would like to see you. Please don’t misunderstand, I’ve heard of your exquisite medical skills and would like to request your help to treat and save someone."

Nan Qiao asked, "How did you find out?"

"You just saved a man covered in blood. I happened to pass by and learned that you were the chief surgeon. Our master is in the VIP ward upstairs; may I have the honor of escorting you there?"

After thinking for a moment, Nan Qiao nodded, "Alright."

She turned to her mother and said, "Mom, I’ll go with him right now. There’s nothing else going on at the hospital, so you can go ahead with your work."

Nan Qiao followed the man and left.

Bai Yurou noticed the luxury watch on the man’s wrist, worth two hundred thousand.

A man who casually wears a watch worth two hundred thousand and serves as a servant—just imagine how wealthy his master must be.

Chen Xinwan watched Nan Qiao leave, then went to find Old Qin, instructing him to keep a close eye on the situation.

"Old Qin, please protect the young miss well. I’ve called two more bodyguards; they’ve arrived. We don’t know who Qiaoqiao saved. I’m afraid she might encounter danger."

Uncle Qin nodded. Nan Qiao was not one to act impulsively.

Since she wanted to save someone, there must be a reason, and she would know how to protect herself.

...

Upon entering the ward, Nan Qiao saw an elderly man sitting inside, looking rather unwell.

As soon as she walked in, the door suddenly closed, and the middle-aged man stood behind it.

Nan Qiao scoffed with a hint of a smile, "Is this all you’ve got?"

The old man asked, "How did you know?"

Nan Qiao, arms folded and supremely confident, infuriated the two men.

"How could I not know? I just arrived at the hospital; hardly anyone knows about my medical skills. Plus, I checked my phone for a moment while following your subordinate here. My underlings have investigated—the person in this ward just checked in. Idiots, you didn’t even find that out, and you dare to come for an assassination?"

Nan Qiao removed the hairpin that was holding her hair and swiftly stabbed it into the old man’s throat.

As the man behind her lashed out with a kick, Nan Qiao leaped to the side.

She quickly grabbed the man’s leg, giving it a hard yank.

Crack.

Taking advantage of this, Nan Qiao placed a hand chop on the shoulder of the man with the broken leg, rendering him powerless with pain.

Neither had anticipated that Nan Qiao, so young, would be so merciless, her martial arts so formidable.

"Who really are you?" The man groaned in agony.

Nan Qiao, standing on his head, glared sharply, "You’re not worthy of knowing."

After speaking, she kicked him into unconsciousness.

Uncle Qin rushed over, with the two bodyguards sent by Chen Xinwan standing at the door awaiting orders.

He pushed the door open and smelled the blood.

Seeing Nan Qiao having taken care of both men, he was shocked and quickly approached, "Miss, are you alright?"

"I’m fine. Have someone dispose of these two bodies," Nan Qiao responded methodically.

She walked to a nearby sink, washing her hands clean, acting as if she hadn’t killed a person, but merely two ants.

Old Qin showed no surprise; the young miss was never an ordinary person.

"I’ll find out who sent these bastards that dared to attempt an assassination!" Uncle Qin grumbled angrily.

"Let’s talk outside first."

Nan Qiao went out with Uncle Qin.

The two bodyguards at the door were also men under Old Qin’s command.

The Bai Family’s bodyguards were gradually becoming Nan Qiao’s people.

...

The two arrived at Zheng Qinnian’s office, just as he was also there.

Upon hearing what had just happened, Zheng Qinnian was astonished and concerned.

Nan Qiao smiled, "I’m fine."

Yet Zheng Qinnian remained worried, taking out his phone to send messages, instructing someone to investigate whether any of the hospital’s patients were hidden enemies.

"Uncle Qin, when you found Hou Ze, what happened? Did you see anyone?"

Uncle Qin narrated the details, "That night, as I set out toward the destination, I arrived at a village to find the medical staff member already dead. There was a mercenary fighting Hou Ze with a knife, causing Hou Ze to sustain serious injuries. I joined the fight, and then the man fled."

So nobody knows if Hou Ze heard anything from that medical staff member?

The lead they had was in danger of disappearing.

Zheng Qinnian reassured, "Qiaoqiao, let’s wait until Hou Ze wakes up to assess the situation. He’s so clever; he surely got some information."

Nan Qiao frowned heavily, "Could my identity have been exposed? Their actions are too fast. I had just operated on Hou Ze, and someone was already being admitted."

Zheng Qinnian replied, "I’ve already ordered someone to scrutinize everyone coming in and out of the hospital."

Nan Qiao’s mood appeared downcast, which distressed Uncle Qin.

He comforted her, "Miss, Hou Ze will wake up soon."

Since Nan Qiao had saved Hou Ze, he would certainly be alright.

Nan Qiao collected herself and decided not to dwell on the matter further as she had to return to the office.

"Uncle Qin, stay and watch over Hou Ze in the hospital. I’m afraid someone will try to assassinate him again. You’ve been injured too, so rest well with Hou Ze."

Uncle Qin was about to refuse when Nan Qiao smiled and said, "Uncle Qin, I won’t be at ease if you’re not watching over Hou Ze."

With no choice, Uncle Qin agreed, as it seemed he had never denied any of Nan Qiao’s requests.

Nan Qiao left the hospital.

...

After separating from Chen Xinwan, Bai Yurou received news that the assassination attempt on Nan Qiao had failed.

"How could it fail?"

"Those people went in and never came out. They must have been taken care of. The person you asked us to kill, who exactly are they? I sent some of the top twenty-ranking experts, and it cost us a fortune! Now, both have vanished without a trace!"

The other person’s voice was also filled with fear, dreading possible retaliation.

Bai Yurou, frowning and using a voice changer on her spare phone, made her voice sound like an adult male.

"Fine, they’re dead. You don’t have to pay the rest," she said with anger in her voice. "And if I hear any rumors spreading around that are harmful to me, you won’t be spared!"

The person on the other end responded cautiously, "It’s done, the medical staff member is dead."

Bai Yurou, furious, hung up the phone and blocked the contact.

She stood at the roadside, seething with rage.

...

Back at the company, Rong Yan knocked on the door and came in.

"Mr. Qiao, here are my designs, please could you give me some guidance?"

Nan Qiao took them and began to look over them.

"You’ve improved, but some areas still need further attention to detail..." Nan Qiao offered some suggestions.

After listening, Rong Yan had an epiphany.

"Mr. Qiao, how come you’re as amazing as Master Huai Xi! The design styles are also similar, you wouldn’t happen to know Master Huai Xi, would you?"

Nan Qiao: "..."

She didn’t want to answer this question.

Just then, her phone rang.
