Chapter 760: Chapter 760: Refuse to Admit Death

"What are you talking about?" Gu Fan, Su Hui, and Gu Ling looked skeptical. Then Gu Fan added: "Qian Feng, don’t tell me you’ve been idling around and now you’re looking for something to do. In that case, let me know, and I’ll find you something exciting."

Qian Feng almost rolled her eyes: "Gu Fan, do you really think I am such a person? Instead, you’re the one acting suspiciously. You’re definitely hiding something from me, and it has to do with her."

Unable to continue the argument, Gu Fan decided to see the guest off: "If Qian Feng comes as a guest, I will welcome you with open arms. But if you’re here to make trouble, I’m sorry, please leave immediately."

"So eager to see me off, Gu Fan, feeling guilty?" After saying this, Qian Feng stared at Qian Ye coldly and said in a dominant tone: "At this point, you refuse to defend yourself, unusually quiet, are you afraid to speak up, to reveal your true identity?"

Gu Fan put on an angry face: "Alright then, you, Qian Feng, said it yourself in the past: Let bygones be bygones. You promised not to bother us again."

"I also said, Lin Xi is Lin Xi, Qian Ye is Qian Ye. Lin Xi shouldn’t bear the past grievances, but if this is the real Qian Ye, then it’s time to settle the score." When Qian Feng spoke these words, her eyes carried a stern, killing aura that sent chills down a person’s spine, especially that of Qian Ye whose nerves tightened.

"Qian Feng, have you gone mad? This person is Lin Xi, Lin Xi is the reincarnation of Qian Ye. You should be very clear about this." Gu Fan defended vehemently. But in response, Qian Feng showed a dismissive look: "Whether this person is Lin Xi or not, I can perceive it. Lin Xi’s attitude towards Qian Ying and Ning Qi has changed after not having seen them for a while. She recovered her Qi and aged a bit. Her tone of speech has also changed. All these changes put together, don’t you find it problematic? You guys really think I am a fool?"

Gu Fan likewise showed disdain: "All these are your own wishful guesses. You have no evidence."

Only to see Qian Feng snort coldly: "Gu Fan, oh, Gu Fan, you still refuse to admit the truth. Now that I’ve taken the initiative, it means I have become suspicious. Did you really think you could keep this from me forever?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Fan, Su Hui, Gu Ling, and Qian Ye felt a heavy weight sink in their hearts. They knew that if Qian Feng set her sights on them, discovery was just a matter of time.

But what Gu Fan was now considering was another matter, to buy time and ensure Qian Ye’s safe return to the ancient era. So he affirmed resolutely: "I’m sorry, Qian Feng, but I think you’re mistaken. This person is indeed the real Lin Xi, not your so-called real Qian Ye."

"I knew you, Gu Fan, wouldn’t admit it, it’s alright, I can live with this Qian Ye for a few days. I believe in these days, whether she is the real Qian Ye or not, I will find out." How could Qian Feng’s suggestion be accepted by Gu Fan?

Seeing Gu Fan’s refusal, Qian Feng wasn’t bothered: "If you don’t accept my proposal, then I have another move. If all goes well, Qian Ying and Qian Xue have gone to Lin Xi’s house and kidnapped Lin Xi’s parents."

All were shocked to hear this, and Qian Ye also adopted a horrified appearance, struggling to keep up the act.

"I knew I was right!" Qian Feng gave a triumphant smile and exuded confidence: "If I say Lin Xi’s parents have been kidnapped, Lin Xi would definitely call to confirm right away, but you haven’t done so."

"This..." Qian Ye hurriedly picked up the phone and dialed home.

Yet, Qian Feng said: "Don’t bother calling. You won’t be able to get through. Lin Xi’s parents are not their doers now, they definitely won’t answer."

Gu Fan shouted in reproach: "Qian Feng, you’ve gone too far. If you have a problem with us, face us directly. How dare you involve Lin Xi’s parents? Didn’t you promise before?"

"Rest assured, I don’t plan to harm them, I just want to use them to test whether there’s something off about this Qian Ye." Qian Feng chuckled coldly after saying this: "It’s strange, at this point, it should be Qian Ye who berates me first, or even attacks me. Gu Fan, you’re unusually eager to play the role."

"Because that’s my mother-in-law, of course, I’m going to be anxious with you." Gu Fan came up with such a forced explanation that left Qian Feng no room to retort.

Looking at the time, Qian Feng impatiently said: "Alright, enough, I don’t want to argue with you all. If you want to prove that my suspicions are wrong, then I have a question. If this Qian Ye can answer it, then we can discuss everything."

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a weight on their hearts, unsure what trick Qian Feng would pull.

Qian Feng began softly: "Qian Ye, I suppose Gu Fan immediately briefed you on many things pertaining to Lin Xi to cover up your identity, but he is not Lin Xi after all, he can’t possibly know everything about Lin Xi, especially about Lin Xi’s life with her parents, particularly her childhood. So, we’ll interrogate Lin Xi’s parents about her childhood. You should also be able to recount the same. If it’s consistent, then it proves you’re not the real Qian Ye."

"This..." Gu Fan gritted his teeth, feeling trapped and at a disadvantage.

But Su Hui had this to say: "Lin Xi just recovered her Qi, it has impacted her memory. What you’re asking is too difficult."

Qian Feng wore a disdainful expression: "So, you couldn’t find any reasonable excuses, and came up with such an absurd one, who are you trying to deceive?"

Gu Fan sighed: "If you think this is the real Qian Ye, then where has the real Lin Xi gone? And this real Qian Ye lives in the ancient era, how did I bring this real Qian Ye to the present? It doesn’t make sense."

Qian Feng gave a slight smile: "At first, I too found it unreasonable, but then I recalled the researchers you met in the Triangle Sea Area. It seems like they were pursuing ancient Super Civilization technology. Supposedly a technology that allows time travel, and you, Gu Fan, provided them with a lot of help. Moreover, their research institute seems to be overseas. All we need to do is check if you and Lin Xi have been abroad recently."

Hearing this, Gu Fan was stunned, unable to utter a word. After a long silence, the atmosphere felt even more stifling.

Neither Su Hui nor Gu Ling knew what to do, feeling cornered with words seemingly futile.

Finally, Qian Ye gathered enough courage, stood up, stared directly at Qian Feng, her eyes expressing everything.

"Right, very good. Let our grudges continue to this day." With that, Qian Feng’s face darkened, then she turned and left in a fury.
