Chapter 145: Jin Chao’s Identity

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Muqing suddenly stood up, and Gungun fell out of her arms.

Gungun looked at her in confusion.

Xia Muqing gritted her teeth and hissed, “Ye Qingxuan is Jin Chao.”

No wonder she had mistaken Ye Qingxuan for Jin Chao so many times. These two men were originally the same person. If not for Gungun, she wouldn’t know how long she would have been kept in the dark. Initially, she felt that Jin Chao’s eyes were a little familiar. Now that she mulled over it, when they first met, she felt that his eyes resembled Ye Qingxuan’s. However, because Ye Qingxuan couldn’t possibly stand on his feet at that time, she dismissed that thought.

It seemed that a few months ago, Ye Qingxuan had found some unknown method to allow him to move his legs freely.

This time, Ye Qingxuan’s attitude towards her explained everything.

The more Xia Muqing thought about it, the angrier she was. She wanted to confront him, but she stopped herself.

There was a commotion outside the door. She frowned and asked, “What’s wrong?”

The person who walked in was Jiang Yifan. On his shoulder was the little phoenix. “Your aunt came to look for you.”

Xia Muqing nodded and said, “All right, I got it.”

Jiang Yifan hesitated before asking, “Why is she here?”

Xia Muqing knew that he was worried about her. She rubbed his head and said, “It’s okay, I can handle her.”

When she arrived outside, she found that Ruan Yu was already waiting for her.

Xia Muqing asked, “Aunt Ruan, why are you here?”

Ruan Yu’s expression darkened. Everyone in the Xia household addressed her as Madam, only this little sl*t called her Aunt.

She retracted her vicious thoughts and smiled. “I came to look for you because of Churan. She, she—”

The smile on her face vanished as she stopped mid-sentence. She became slightly distressed. “She wants to take her life. She said that she is too ashamed to continue staying alive, so I came to look for you.”

Xia Muqing was even more puzzled. “Then why did you come to find me? She didn’t die because of me.”

Ruan Yu’s expression froze. She noticed the obvious confusion on her face. That little sl*t knew how to pretend. If she hadn’t said those words in public, Churan would have entered the King’s residence long ago.

She blamed everything on Xia Muqing, but she had never thought that they were be the ones who had schemed against her first.

Ruan Yu added, “Originally I didn’t want to trouble you. But if Churan died because of you, and this matter gets out, it would affect you as well. After all, outsiders who don’t know the truth might think that you forced Churan to take her life.”

Her words carried a blatant threat.

Xia Muqing didn’t fall for it and sneered. “Then I’ll have to trouble Aunt to explain it to me. After all, the cause of this incident was because of the both of you, wasn’t it?”

Ruan Yu was taken aback. Did this little b*tch know something?

Xia Muqing was about to send the guest off when something struck her. Her eyes darted around and she suddenly said, “It’s not entirely impossible for me to help.”

Ruan Yu hadn’t expected her to suddenly change her mind. She assumed that she was afraid and worried about the rumors. Only then did she feel relieved. As she had said just now, how could anyone not care about their reputation?

Ruan Yu, who thought that she had something she could use against Xia Muqing, became unyielding and said, “You have to bring Churan into the King’s residence.”

Xia Muqing nodded and replied, “Of course.”

Her prompt response made Ruan Yu a little nervous. Was she playing a trick?

Facing her questioning gaze, Xia Muqing said innocently, “Isn’t that what you wanted me to do?”

Without waiting for Ruan Yu to answer, she had planned everything. “I’ll invite King Zhennan here tomorrow, and we can discuss our marriage.”

Ruan Yu was still in a trance after leaving the courtyard.. Xia Muqing’s seemingly agreeable attitude made her panic.
