Qin Yune shook her head. "Forget it, we've already got the money, so the rest has nothing to do with her anymore."
However, at that moment, Qin Yunie's phone suddenly rang, and an unfamiliar phone number appeared on the screen.
She frowned slightly and pressed the answer button with some doubt. A soft and gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, is this Ms. Qin?"
Qin Yune was secretly puzzled, but still politely replied, "Yes, I am Qin Yune. May I ask who you are?"
The other person seemed to have anticipated her question and introduced herself, "I am He Ying."
Upon hearing this name, Qin Yunie quickly recalled the news report he had just seen.
A look of realization flashed across her eyes; she wasn't surprised that He Ying knew her phone number.
After all, she used her usual email address when she posted that video, and anyone with a keen eye could easily obtain her real identity information with a little investigation. Therefore, it's not surprising that someone would have her contact information.
Qin Yune calmly asked, "May I ask what brings you here?"
He Ying's calm voice came through the phone, conveying a sense of composure and restraint. She said, "Although I don't know why you took those videos and sent them to me, I am still very grateful to you."
After she finished speaking, He Ying's calm voice came from the other end of the phone again: "Of course, I won't let you work for nothing. This is my phone number. If you need any help in the future, just let me know. Also, I've added you on WeChat. I hope you can accept my request."
She not only checked Qin Yunie's email and identity, but also investigated everything about her. Naturally, she also learned that although she was the Qin family's biological daughter, she was not well-liked.
He Ying meant that she wanted to offer some help when Qin Yune decided to return to the Qin family someday.
She learned from the scumbag that Qin Yunie had mentioned Gao Jiasheng's name when he came to her door.
She must be Gao Jiasheng's friend.
Although he is dead, I can still help his friends.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yunie instinctively refused, "No..."
Before she could even utter her refusal, He Ying seemed to anticipate her words and said, "Don't rush to refuse. Besides, it won't do you any harm. What if you need it someday?"
Qin Yunie pursed her lips, pondered for a moment, and then agreed.
The two then added each other on WeChat.
However, as soon as she added them, a large sum of money was transferred to them.
The postscript reads: Thank you for your video.
Qin Yunie saw that she hadn't accepted the transfer; Gao Jiasheng had already paid her her reward.
Meanwhile, the Qin family.
The family was having breakfast. Apart from Qin Hao, who had a falling out with his father, and Qin Jing, who was filming out of town, everyone else was there.
Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Qin Nian asked casually, "Mom, has my sister really been selling boxed lunches in our hometown ever since she went back?"
When Qin's mother heard her mention Qin Yu Nie, her face instantly turned ugly. She frowned and said unhappily, "Why did you bring her up?"
Seeing her mother's reaction, Qin Nian was secretly pleased, but she pretended to be innocent and replied, "I was just asking out of curiosity. When I accompanied Yi Tian to look at apartments in the Sheshan development last time, I saw my sister there too."
Upon hearing this, Qin's mother looked up and frowned unhappily, "Why is she going to the real estate development instead of staying in her hometown?"
"I heard from a salesperson that my sister bought a villa," Qin Nian said, her face full of longing. "And she paid for it in full."
Mr. Qin hadn't paid much attention to their conversation at first, but when he heard about the Sheshan real estate development, he couldn't help but frown. "Where did you say? The Sheshan real estate development?"
Qin Nian nodded, seemingly puzzled. "Yes, what's wrong, Dad?"
Qin Huai's lips curled into a mocking smile, his tone filled with disdain as he said, "How could she possibly have the money to buy a villa there! While the Luxe Hill development isn't top-tier in City A, even a small villa there isn't cheap; it'd cost at least ten or twenty million. If she could afford to buy a house in Luxe Hill outright, wouldn't I be able to easily buy dozens of them?"
Upon hearing Qin Huai's words, Qin's mother's face immediately darkened, as if she had thought of something. "She went to buy it alone?"
Qin Nian nodded obediently and replied softly, "Yes, we only saw her. I also greeted my sister, but she didn't seem to want to see me, so I didn't dare to ask any more questions."
Qin's mother's expression grew increasingly grave as she fell into deep thought, muttering to herself, "She only took one suitcase when she left, and nothing seemed to be missing from the house..."
After thinking for a moment, Qin Huai asked in confusion, "Could it be that my elder brother gave me the money?"
But then he shook his head, dismissing his guess. "That shouldn't be possible. My brother's been so busy with work lately, he doesn't even have time to eat, how could he have time to take care of her?"
Without hesitation, Qin Huai blurted out, "Is she someone's mistress, being kept by someone?"
Qin Huai's words were like a bombshell, instantly turning the faces of Qin's father and mother extremely gloomy.
Qin's mother had actually had a vague guess in her mind, but she didn't say it out loud.
However, to everyone's surprise, Qin Huai bluntly revealed the truth.
"Smack—"
Qin's father, who was eating, was furious. He slammed his hand on the table, causing his chopsticks to fall to the ground, and roared, "That shameless wretch! Did I mistreat her back then? Did I starve her or deprive her of clothes? She actually became someone's mistress for a house! If this gets out, where will I put my face?!"
At this point, he became increasingly agitated, roaring furiously, "I should never have brought her back! Just pretend she was never born!"
He really did grow up in the countryside; his short-sightedness is laughable!
Not only is she of no help to the family, but she has also ruined the family's reputation. If it weren't for the fact that very few people have seen Qin Yunie's true face, everyone would probably know that he has raised a vain and self-destructive biological daughter!
How can he possibly have the face to work in the business world now!
Upon hearing Qin's father's words, Qin's mother's expression darkened even further, clearly indicating that she shared the same thought.
If they hadn't brought her back, their family wouldn't have fallen out of love because of her, and things wouldn't be like this now.
But then she said she would never rely on the Qin family, but then she turned around and became someone's mistress!
This is tantamount to throwing the Qin family's face on the ground and trampling it!
This is utterly absurd!
