For example, this is what daily life is like with Nie Yan.
3:30 AM: [Good morning, sister. I miss you so much.]
Sister, are you awake?
Sister, I miss you so much I can't sleep.
After bombarding them with over 30 messages, Nie Kongsang's reply stunned everyone: "Little brother, be good. Big brother is very tired and just fell asleep. Don't bother me."
The barrage of messages stopped. Half an hour later, Nie Yan sent a message: "Sister, I miss you."
Nie Kongsang replied: 【I understand, I miss my brother too.】
A shadowy look appeared in Lin Changli's eyes, but he did not speak.
Si Yu asked with a strange expression, "Is this really a conversation between relatives? Does Nie Kongsang know that she is a fake heiress?" The timing of this information is very sensitive, making it hard not to think about it.
Having already read through the messages, Yu Wei continued scrolling down, saying, "Take a look at this one too?"
This time the time is much more normal, 8:30 AM.
Nie Jingxing sent a message asking, "Are you up?"
There was nothing wrong with the brother's question, but Nie Kongsang's reply was chilling.
【Good morning, brother. I got up at 8:00 sharp, changed into a luxurious Nail dress, sprayed on some woody perfume, spent 15 minutes washing up, and am currently putting on makeup. I plan to have breakfast at 9:00 and head out around 10:00.】
[I'll have lunch out this afternoon, then wander around a bit and be home no later than 4 pm. I can have dinner with my older brother then. If anything comes up, I'll let him know.]
Nie Jingxing replied: [Okay, be good.]
A vague and ambiguous tone, a chilling tone of complete control—is this woman mentally sound?
"There's something even stranger that follows, so keep reading."
This time it was a message from Madam Nie, sent at any time of day.
[You bitch, why are you still alive?]
Go to hell! Go to hell!
[You lowly thing, what did you say to your father again?]
The screen was filled with insults, some of which were unbearable to read. Even enemies wouldn't treat people like this, let alone someone who had raised their daughter for over twenty years.
Nie Kongsang mostly doesn't reply, but occasionally she'll send a message: "Mom, calm down."
[Mom, don't be angry.]
Then something even stranger happened: Madam Nie seemed to have multiple personalities, and immediately became extremely caring.
【I'm sorry, Asang, Mommy lost her temper. How have you been lately? Mommy will come back to see you as soon as I'm done with my work.】
Okay, I miss my mom too.
My dear daughter, Mom will bring you a present when I return home.
Finally, a piece of information from a long time ago was brought up. It came from Nie's father, the true leader of the Nie family, and it was almost half a year ago.
The only time Nie Kongsang initiated a message.
[Dad, who will kill me?]
The Nie family seems to enjoy sending messages late at night; this message was sent in the early hours of the morning.
A reply came around 4 a.m.: "As a daughter of the Nie family, you must have a firm will and not let your mind wander."
[Hehe, I know, Dad, don't overwork yourself with your research. Go to bed early, sweet dreams!]
The room was completely silent. No one knew how to describe this family. To the outside world, the Nie family was very harmonious, appearing to be a happy family...
Qi Yunshen concluded, "Growing up in this kind of environment, it's impossible for her to be normal. Weiwei, you insist on starting with Nie Kongsang, be careful."
Just then, a cheerful ringtone sounded on the screen, and Yu Wei clicked to answer: "Hello, who is this?"
"Yu Wei is my name, Nie Kongsang. I was in a hurry during the day and forgot to ask your name. I had someone check it out. I'm sorry."
Yu Wei showed no surprise, and said in a calm voice, "It's alright. Is there something you need?"
"Thank you again for saving my life. I know you are a very famous jewelry designer in country A and have just returned home."
"If you want to start your own design company in China, I can invest the entire company without taking any shares. You name the amount; there's no upper limit."
Yu Wei's eyes flickered slightly: "No limit? Is this the confidence of Miss Nie? Is no one controlling your spending?"
Kong Sang's voice was filled with surprise: "Why do we need to regulate this? The Nie family can afford to squander money like a hundred of me. Dad and my brother are still here; they'll make money."
Yu Wei paused for a moment and then said, "Okay, give me 500 million yuan. I really want to start a company."
This was an outrageous demand, but Nie Kongsang didn't care at all. She had that much money in her own account. She said, "I'll give you a billion. Can you do me a small favor?"
The men exchanged glances; this was the real purpose of the call—a billion…what a huge sum.
"What's up?"
"Three months ago, the eldest son of the Fang family accidentally killed his sister due to a mental breakdown and was sent to a mental hospital, but he was wrongly convicted."
“I’ve met him a few times. He’s not that kind of person. How can an innocent person be wronged? You find a way to get him out of this mess, and I’ll give you double the money for everything.”
“This is a very important matter. I have just returned to Country C and do not know the details yet. Let’s have a face-to-face meeting.”
"Okay, but I'm not sure about the time yet. I'll let you know. By the way, you'd better format my phone. There are some things you can see, but... you might get into trouble if you say the wrong thing."
After hanging up the phone, Qi Yunshen had already used his position to access all the information about Fang Yuan, the eldest son of the Fang family.
He quickly glanced through the text and said, "The deceased was an illegitimate daughter of the Fang family. The specific cause of death was covered up. After the matter became public, the Fang family sent Fang Yuan to a mental hospital to silence outsiders."
"Fang Yuan kept insisting that he was innocent, but the Fang family remained unmoved, seemingly determined to believe that Fang Yuan was mentally unstable and killed the person. It is worth mentioning that... Fang Yuan was Nie Yan's follower, and the two attended the same university."
Lin Changli smiled and said, "Interesting."
He saw clearly what happened during the day; Nie Kongsang obviously knew in advance that someone would target her, and she was by no means a simple woman.
Would someone really be so kind as to spend a billion dollars to save one indifferent person after another?
After finishing the call, Kong Sang pressed his temples, feeling a little tired. The system was right; this life was different.
Yu Wei's appearance brought her a glimmer of hope; hopefully, this person could be of use.
A girl born in an orphanage has made a name for herself abroad. Although she doesn't have a powerful background, she has carved out her own niche.
She wanted to use such capable people for her own purposes. Under Nie Jingxing's control, she didn't have many people she could mobilize, which made it very inconvenient for her to do things.
She would have been dead and that would have been the end of it, but the survival system insisted on bringing her back to life. Well then, let's hurt each other.
As the night grew quiet, she began to suffer from insomnia again. Unable to go for a night run, she decided to go downstairs for a drink.
Wearing a beige nightgown and matching fluffy slippers, she wandered in the darkness by the moonlight without turning on any lights. She wasn't afraid at all; being hidden in the darkness gave her a sense of security.
But this tranquility was broken by the flashing red warning light in front of me, how annoying!
Her arm was grabbed forcefully, and her body was slammed onto the kitchen counter. The sharp knife was held against her neck, as if hesitating about where to cut.
