Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 571
Chapter 571 Coincidence
“Change?” Su Wanwan sneered, “Who are you? What secrets can you exchange with me?”
“Of course I have! I only heard about it! It has something to do with you! It has something to do with your life!” Lian Qiuyun said anxiously.
“Oh?” Su Wanwan raised her eyebrows, “Then tell me.”
“No! I want you to promise me first!” Lian Qiuyun said proudly. Seeing that Su Wanwan had agreed, she thought about what Su Wanwan should give her. She said, “As long as you promise not to attack me or my family, I will … give me a hundred taels of silver as a reward!”
“You … are worth it?” Su Wanwan sneered and shook her head, “Whether or not your secret is worth so much money and conditions, I need you to tell me first before I can think about whether or not to accept it.”
“I’m not stupid. You have to agree first!” Lian Qiuyun proudly raised her chin and said, as if Su Wanwan would kneel down and beg her to say it if she didn’t say it.
She really didn’t like such a grinding trick! Su Wanwan said unhappily, “Just don’t say it!”
After saying that, she walked around Lian Qiuyun and left. Lian Qiuyun was unwilling and chased after him. However, Su Wanwan looked down at Lian Qiuyun’s flat abdomen and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you.”
Su Wanwan’s eyes were like clear lake water. Looking at Lian Qiuyun’s stomach, ripples appeared as if she had been hit into a small stone.
Lian Qiuyun was stunned. Why did she see a trace of … envy and … kindness in Su Wanwan’s eyes?
Occasionally, Su Wanwan would leave.
Lian Qiuyun was stunned. She didn’t know what Su Wanwan meant. After another month or two, her stomach grew a little bigger. Only then did she realize that she was pregnant. Only then did Su Wanwan let her go. Regarding Su Wanwan’s magnanimity, Lian Qiuyun thought of the so-called “secret” and wanted to tell Su Wanwan, but she was unwilling. In the end, she hid it in her chest.
Su Wanwan did not know that this so-called “secret” was actually something that Lian Qiuyun suddenly heard when he left.
As he left, Lin Xutong said, “Her surname is Sun? Why doesn’t it look like her to me? Besides, she doesn’t look like a young lady anyway! I see … she’s just a little girl!”
“Don’t talk nonsense! That sign is the real Minister Sun’s sign!” The county magistrate said angrily. He glared at Lin Xu and knocked his hand on his head. “If it weren’t for you provoking her, how could I have so much trouble now! It’s all your fault!” He said angrily.
Lin Xu was in pain. He covered his head and said unwillingly, “I went to the village and asked about it before. She can climb trees and go into the water to catch fish. She is not picky about ordinary food. Whose eldest young miss is she like this?”
Hearing this, the county magistrate was stunned and said, “Even so, that brand is indeed true!”
“Why not?” As Lin Xu spoke, her body trembled. “I wonder if you’ve heard of Minister Sun… long ago? His family has long since scattered, and it’s impossible for him to have a brand! She probably stole that brand… Or, she picked it up! Or… she hired someone to copy it!” Lin Xu said with a trembling voice, “I wonder if you’ve heard of it before.”
“This” The county magistrate narrowed his eyes. He thought of the knees he had knelt on to Su Wanwan, the kowtows he had kowtowed to, and the sweat flowing through his face. His face turned pale. He was an official, and he had never knelt on the knees of that commoner woman! Thinking of this, the county magistrate clenched his hands tightly and whispered, “If that’s the case, I will definitely tear her into pieces!”
Su Wanwan did not know that she was already being missed. On the one hand, the county magistrate had already sent people to investigate Su Wanwan’s identity. On the other hand, he had ordered people to investigate whether Minister Sun’s family was dead or not. If they found evidence, the next person to face Su Wanwan would be the death penalty!
Suddenly, Su Wanwan’s body trembled and she felt a chill run down her spine.
As he walked, he unknowingly arrived at a crowded place, which was precisely the dock.
Thinking back to when she had posted Qi Chengfeng’s portrait here, Su Wanwan glanced at it more. Suddenly, she saw a woman sitting underneath, her eyes looking around, as if she was waiting for something.
When the woman saw the shop where the portrait was put up, she grabbed someone and asked, “Did you put it up?”
Passers-by shook their heads.
Su Wanwan was puzzled. If anyone didn’t know the man on the portrait, they wouldn’t have waited so bitterly.
But … Qi Chengfeng was only kidnapped yesterday, and he still doesn’t know where he is today! Even though she thought so, Su Wanwan still walked over expectantly and said, “Young lady, this portrait was pasted by me. Why? Do you know the person on this portrait?”
“I know him!” The woman immediately nodded and said, “Can you really give me a hundred taels of silver? However, you can also give me a few copper coins! The person I just saw … is very similar to the person in this portrait. However, his face is slightly red and swollen, as if the swelling on his face has only just healed …”
Hearing this woman’s description, Su Wanwan immediately became excited. She grabbed the woman’s hand and said excitedly, “Do you know where she is? Take me there quickly!”
“Alright.” The woman smiled and picked up some of the goods she had bought in the town. She then pulled Su Wanwan down the boat.
Seeing the woman’s simple expression, Su Wanwan believed it. She excitedly asked the woman a lot on the boat, but she always felt that she heard something that contradicted Qi Chengfeng’s impression.
“When did you see him?” Su Wanwan asked.
“I saw him yesterday!” The woman said, her face flushed red as if she was embarrassed. She said, “He is really good looking! Along with him, there is a handsome young master. He brought the young master back. I heard that the two of them are working together. Now, the shop can earn 500 taels of silver in a month!”
“Is that so? Is he a businessman?” Su Wanwan asked doubtfully.
“Exactly.” The woman nodded, “I heard that the young master you are looking for is the young master who was fostered outside because of his weak body. He has already been brought back.”
“…”
These words sounded serious. Was it true or false?
Su Wanwan raised her eyebrows, not knowing how to argue.
“I saw the young master on the portrait yesterday. He is really handsome!”
After saying that, she looked at Su Wanwan and said, “By the way, who are you? Could you be his wife or sister?”
Just as Su Wanwan was about to open her mouth, her eyelids suddenly twitched. An uneasy feeling swept over her, as if she did not want her to say the answer!
The girl smiled and said, “What’s wrong with you? Is there anything hard to say? Is he your enemy?”
