Chapter 956 Tell a Story
He Jing couldn't understand Prince Adula's words, and of course, she didn't know that Prince Adula was instructing his men to "take her to Miss Cheng Yi."
After a brief exchange with Prince Adula, his men led He Jing forward. When they reached a door, they fed He Jing half a bowl of water and pushed her into the room.
With another "bang," the door slammed shut. He Jing broke free of the ropes, tore off the blindfold, and saw Cheng Yi sitting on a palace chair in the pitch-black room.
Beside her was a bodyguard, tall and imposing, with a full beard and eyes that gleamed green in the darkness, like a wolf.
Cheng Yi finally shed all her previous pretense, revealing her true, seemingly innocent yet hypocritical nature. She greeted He Jing with a faint smile, "He Jing, it's so nice to see you again."
He Jing was both surprised and unsurprised to see Cheng Yi. Meeting her gaze, she replied, "But I don't want to see you, Miss Cheng. Haven't you learned anything from that painful lesson in the past?"
"Do you think you can get away this time?" Seemingly amused, Cheng Yi stood up from the palace chair and slowly walked forward. "It's no wonder you think that way. You're so smart and capable in combat, of course you think you can turn danger into safety no matter what situation you encounter. Even if things go wrong, you still have Yan Hanxi and your brothers standing behind you. Even if you die, someone will avenge you."
Indeed, that was what He Jing thought, but hearing it from Cheng Yi's mouth made her realize the seriousness of the matter.
"It seems you've prepared very thoroughly this time. There's an 80% chance you'll be able to escape easily."
He Jing nodded: "The plan to deal with him is very thorough."
"In your eighth year as the fake heiress, both you and the real heiress passed the primary school entrance exam. However, because you were quite stupid, you passed the exam one grade higher than the real heiress. So you blamed everything on the real heiress and deliberately sought revenge against her."
To everyone's surprise, Qiang Hang agreed with what he said: "You know, you made a mistake every step of the way in the past. You really shouldn't have been doing so badly."
That was the first time He Jing openly expressed her doubts about Cheng Yi's abilities.
Qiang Hang, seeing that you've finally lost some of the original male lead's traits, can't help but feel a little regretful. You smiled and said, "He Jing, he was targeting you. You weren't supposed to have a bad life."
"However, did you consider that the real heiress has very few suitors? Sometimes, they are secretly protecting her, so before you can even make your move, one of her suitors runs you over with a truck and kills you. You are just cannon fodder in the whole book."
He Jing smiled and said, "Cheng Yi, tell him a story. He knows the beginning of the story. It's about a fourteen-year-old boy who spent fourteen years pretending to be a rich girl in a wealthy family surnamed Cheng. He found out that he was a fake heiress. In order to return to his poor home, he attempted suicide to stay in the Cheng family and succeeded."
Qiang Hang frowned, feeling something strange about the fact that there was nothing under him.
Even if the He family cherishes you, you can still have everything thanks to the male lead's halo. You are just cannon fodder struggling to escape your predetermined fate, so how could you become an obstacle to him?
"Because of the change in your identity, your life has also undergone earth-shattering changes. People who used to fawn over you now ignore you, and your doting adoptive parents have all set their sights on their biological son. In your first school year as the fake heiress, you discover that the Yan family's eldest son, whom you despise, has cheated on you with the real heiress. Because of this, he is reluctant to break off your engagement, so you deliberately frame the real heiress, but you are exposed."
"In your seventh year as the fake heiress, you find yourself transformed from an inferior person into someone everyone outside your class likes. As a result, your jealousy and hatred towards the real heiress reach their peak. You team up with other boys to try to bully the real heiress, but it backfires on you."
