From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 411: Making a Big Deal Out of It

Nan Qiao said, "I came to you because I want to ask if there’s been anything unusual happening in your family recently."

Du Qianqian said, "My grandmother is in a coma—that’s already quite unusual."

"Du Qianqian, if I go visit your grandmother now, your uncle’s family would probably kick me out, wouldn’t they?"

"How do you know my grandmother is at home and not in the hospital for treatment?" Du Qianqian’s eyes widened, suddenly feeling a bit uneasy.

Could Nan Qiao be on her uncle’s side?

"Put away your suspicions. I don’t know your uncle. As the saying goes, familiarity breeds sentiment. I know you, but not your uncle. Even if I’m going to help someone, it would certainly be you."

Du Qianqian still seemed doubtful, so Nan Qiao explained, "Given your uncle’s desire to seize power, there’s no way he’d send your grandmother to the hospital. Keeping her at home ensures his peace of mind."

Du Qianqian felt a bit embarrassed and uneasy. "I treated you so poorly before—why are you still willing to help me?"

Nan Qiao wanted to say she wasn’t doing it for Du Qianqian; she was merely trying to unravel the mystery.

Nan Qiao’s own grandmother was in a coma. Now, Old Lu was paralyzed in a wheelchair, and Du Qianqian’s grandmother was also in a coma.

What’s going on? Is everyone just going to fall into a coma all at once?

Such a coincidence must mean something shady is happening.

Du Qianqian looked at Nan Qiao’s beautiful face and cautiously asked, "Why are you suddenly coming to me?"

Nan Qiao replied, "Because I want to help you."

Du Qianqian: "..."

She felt that Nan Qiao must have other motives and wasn’t here purely to help her.

Du Qianqian didn’t dare ask further; she was afraid Nan Qiao wouldn’t treat her grandmother if she offended her.

"But I have no way to take you to my uncle’s house. He’s suspicious of us and has hired more bodyguards. I can’t get in," Du Qianqian said miserably, lowering her head.

Her family had reported the matter to the police, but after investigation, there was seemingly nothing wrong with her uncle.

The share transfer documents were legitimate, signed by her grandmother.

Du Qianqian struggled to think of a solution and felt extremely distressed.

While Du Qianqian was at a loss, she heard Nan Qiao say, "Take me to your uncle’s house; I’ll find an opportunity to get in."

Du Qianqian thought Nan Qiao was joking with her.

Climb over? Really?

Looking at Nan Qiao’s slender arms and legs, Du Qianqian couldn’t believe she’d be able to climb over anything.

Du Qianqian didn’t dare say much, though, since Nan Qiao had agreed to help treat her grandmother.

Thus, Du Qianqian took Nan Qiao near her uncle’s house.

...

The two approached the vicinity.

Du Qianqian said, "That’s my uncle’s front door over there. Look at the two bodyguards stationed outside—he spent a fortune hiring them, and it’s nearly impossible to break in."

Nan Qiao removed her sunglasses; the sunlight was too blinding.

"You wait here; I’m going to check it out."

Before Du Qianqian could call out to her, Nan Qiao had already run off.

Du Qianqian didn’t dare go near; she was too afraid.

"Nan Qiao, is she crazy? How could she just go straight to their front door like that!" Du Qianqian’s palms started sweating with anxiety.

As Du Qianqian’s fears grew, she witnessed something unbelievable.

Nan Qiao seemed to say something to the bodyguards, and then she walked directly into her uncle’s house without any obstruction.

Du Qianqian: "!!"

What exactly did she say?

Du Qianqian couldn’t get in herself and could only wait anxiously outside.

...

Nan Qiao entered Du Yongmao’s house.

The surveillance system had been temporarily disabled, enabling Nan Qiao to move inside unnoticed.

She changed into a maid’s uniform and took out a Human Skin Mask from her bag, transforming instantly into an unremarkable-looking maid.

Following the directions from one of the bodyguards, Nan Qiao found the place where the grandmother was kept.

A guard stood by the door, so Nan Qiao lured him away with a diversion tactic.

While the guard stationed at the door engaged in conversation elsewhere, Nan Qiao slipped inside.

Soon, she arrived at the grandmother’s room.

The door was locked. Nan Qiao quickly applied a trick to open it.

The grandmother lay motionless on the bed, still in a coma.

Nan Qiao sat beside her and checked her pulse. After finishing, Nan Qiao realized it was the same scheme yet again.

It seemed Du Yongmao was connected to Jiang Linyu and the others, using identical methods to seize power.

Nan Qiao took out a listening device from her bag and placed it in the most conspicuous spot in the room.

The most dangerous place is often the safest.

Having done this, Nan Qiao also gave the grandmother a pill, dissolving it before managing to feed it to her.

Standing by the window, Nan Qiao looked at the grandmother’s condition. She had to find a way to wake her soon.

Unfortunately, Nan Qiao hadn’t brought enough supplies this time, so she’d have to wait for another chance to continue treating her.

...

Nan Qiao left Du Yongmao’s house and walked over to Du Qianqian, who still couldn’t believe what had happened.

Du Qianqian grabbed Nan Qiao by the arm. "How were you able to move about so freely? This is my uncle’s house, not yours. How did you do it?"

Nan Qiao replied, "I know the two bodyguards at the entrance, so they let me in. Let’s leave now; this isn’t the right place to talk. If your uncle catches us, he’ll definitely suspect something."

Du Qianqian nodded, and the two left together.

...

They arrived at a nearby café and sat down.

Nan Qiao explained the grandmother’s condition, leaving Du Qianqian extremely emotional.

"I knew my uncle was the culprit! He wants the company, but why does he have to harm my grandmother!"

Nan Qiao took a sip of juice; juice was far better than coffee.

"Nan Qiao, is there still hope for my grandmother?"

"Yes, we need to rescue her and get her proper treatment. If we wait any longer, your grandmother won’t survive."

Du Qianqian grew anxious. "I’ll call my father and ask him to think of a way. My grandmother can’t be allowed to die."

Nan Qiao offered her a suggestion. "Go to the police. Better yet, livestream the situation and make it big—create enough pressure that your uncle has no choice but to send your grandmother to the hospital for treatment. I recommend this hospital; go to Doctor Zheng Qinnian. He’s a friend of mine."

One sentence from Nan Qiao brought Du Qianqian relief.

"Nan Qiao, thank you. Once I rescue my grandmother and get her to the hospital, I’ll thank you properly."

Du Qianqian was both excited and nervous, carrying a hint of doubt about whether she could make it happen.

"You better hurry. If nothing works, contact the reporters—this kind of news will definitely attract deep investigation. Stirring up public attention would be the best move. And don’t forget to hire bodyguards to protect yourselves."

"Nan Qiao, thank you!"

Du Qianqian left, determined to act fast and not hesitate further.

After finishing her juice, Nan Qiao left the café as well, making sure to pay the bill.

As Nan Qiao stepped out, she scanned a shared scooter to ride.

Just as she got on, Nan Qiao received a call from Li Yehan.

"Qiaoqiao, where are you? Let’s have dinner tonight."

"I can’t have dinner with you tonight; I need to go home. My family misses me, so I’ll head back soon."

Li Yehan: "..."

"Do you have time now? Can you come to my office?"

"No, I’ve got to play hero and do some good deeds."

Nan Qiao unapologetically hung up the phone and continued with her tasks.
