nQiao Qing lowered her gaze and looked at the small and delicate jewelry box. She reached out hesitantly.

n

n

nHowever, the moment she opened it and saw what was inside, she immediately closed it shut with a thud.

n

n

nHer fingers pushed the jewelry box back towards Qi Feng. “Take it away.”

n

n

nSeeing this, Qi Feng took two seconds to mourn after his Sect Leader.

n

n

nHowever, he didn’t listen and left the jewelry box where it was. Then, he stepped back once with hands behind his back.

n

n

n“Ms. Qiao, I am only following the orders of my Sect Leader by bringing this to you. I am not responsible for bringing it back.”

n

n

nThen, as if he was scared Qiao Qing would turn violent, he jumped out of the window and ran away.

n

n

nAfter Qi Feng left, Qiao Qing stared blankly at the jewelry box for a long while.

n

n

nFeeling a bit of a headache, she scrunched her brows, tossed it inside her left drawer, and locked it up.

n

n

nShe’ll just return it to him next time.

nMu Jinghang finished showering and breezily walked out of the bathroom. He then checked out the loungewear he was wearing.

n

n

n“Third brother, honestly, that girls’ dad had great taste. His clothes aren’t out of fashion even now, and the material used for this isn’t much different from what we normally wear.”

n

n

nJun Yexuan was looking at the file Chi Yang had just sent and didn’t even spare a fraction of his attention on Mu Jinghang.

n

n

nMu Jinghang walked over and eyed it. As if he didn’t feared death, he snatched the file away. “I’ve read all this. The records are far too nitty-gritty. Why don’t I just explain it to you?”

n

n

nJun Yexuan stared at him.

n

n

nMu Jinghang softly coughed once, pulled up his pants, and sat on the bed.

n

n

n“Based on our investigation, there’s nothing special about Qiao Qing. Only her dad is worth mentioning.”

n

n

n“Her father, Qiao Zibo, is a well-known genius with an IQ of 273. But for some unknown reason, he disappeared a few years back.”

n

n

n“Qiao Qing is far more ordinary in comparison. Other than how she looks, there’s nothing that stands out about her. She has never passed a single exam.”

n

n

n“Under normal circumstances for a normal family, this isn’t a big deal. However, because her father had such a bright and prominent reputation, her incompetence is made more obvious.”

n

n

n“Especially since she has a far more intelligent and multi-talented cousin, she truly looks like she’s good for nothing.”

n

n

n“So she became the gossip of the town. There’s even a rumor that the two famillies took the wrong babies home.”

n

n

n“Plus, we didn’t find anything regarding her and Feng Hen. How can such an ordinary high school student be linked to the Sect Leader of the Jin Sect?”

n

n

nJun Yexuan sneered sfotly. “You think this girl’s a simple character?”

n

n

nMu Jinghang blinked a few times. “Is she not?”

n

n

nJun Yexuan threw out a grenade-like statement, “She was the one who protected me from people from the Jin Sect.”

n

n

nMu Jinghang’s eyes widened at this news. “For real?”

n

n

nJun Yexuan didn’t respond and stood up, “Before Qiao Zibo disappeared, an illegal organization, under the cover of being a bio-research facility, had plans to use him to do research.”

n

n

nMu Jinghang said, ‘I know about. Didn’t that organization get annihilated by international police?”

n

n

nJun Yexuan walked to the door before turning his head back. “Then, did you know that the person who led the international police to the destruction of the organization, was an underaged girl?”

n

n

n“So you are telling me…” Mu Jinghang was a little astonished, “How’s that possible? If she’s more capable than her father, why would she hide her true self?”

n

n

nJun Yexuan didn’t answer and left the room,

n

n

nHe mumbled to himself, “So she is the daughter of Qiao Zibo.”

n

n

nQiao Qing was reading a medical book in her study when someone suddenly knocked on the door.

n

n

nShe flipped the page and said, “Come in.”

n

n

nChen Ming walked in. “Miss, your mom is asking you to go downstairs to eat.”

n

n

nQiao Qing didn’t even raise her head. “Alright.”

n

n

nChen Ming knew all about Qiao Qing’s habits. After relaying the message, he left the room.

n

n

nJust as he was about to shut the door, a pair of lean and boney hands pressed against the door.

n

n

nJun Yexuan smiled respectfully at Chen Ming. “I’m looking for Qiao Qing.”
