Xia Yinian couldn’t tell if she was agitated because she knew a secret, or if she had genuinely encountered some troublesome issue.
But her urgent need for money certainly couldn’t be a good sign. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"If this secret is worth so much money, why don’t you go to the Feng Family yourself?" Xia Yinian’s expression slowly turned serious.
The only secret involving the Feng Family and Xia Chuxue was that Xia Chuxue was not the young lady of the Feng Family.
Although Xia Yinian believed this might be true, given Sister Qiangwei’s current mental state, it couldn’t be ruled out that she might want to use this matter for money.
If she really had solid evidence, why choose to reveal it now? And why come to her of all people?
She did have some connections with the Feng Family, but that didn’t mean they would necessarily believe her word.
"Sister Qiangwei, what exactly happened? You can tell me, and I’ll see if I can help." Xia Yinian continued.
"Nian Nian, I don’t know anyone. To suddenly go to the Yao City Feng Family, you think I’ve lost my mind, don’t you?" Xia Qiangwei said in a low voice.
"You surely can help me; I only need a million. I will reveal everything I know."
On one hand, Xia Yinian didn’t know if the secret Xia Qiangwei mentioned was real; on the other hand, she didn’t have a million, truly didn’t.
However, she gradually worked through Xia Qiangwei’s words and didn’t find them unreasonable. She didn’t trust Xia Chuxue, nor did she dare to go to Yao City rashly.
Clearing her throat, she suddenly asked, "How can I prove what you say is true?"
"Besides, I’m worried that giving you the money would only harm you."
Xia Yinian didn’t mention that she had no money. If this matter had such significant ties to the Feng Family, a million was really nothing to Ah Yen.
"It’s okay, Nian Nian, as long as you give me a million, I’ll be fine. We’ve been sisters for so many years, I know you’re concerned about me."
"This secret might even be related to you, but these things will take some time to verify, and I don’t have that time."
"Within three days, I need to have the money, otherwise I’ll risk going to Xia Chuxue, and she’s sure to offer me more."
"Think about it, really. This transaction for you is a sure-win, why don’t you trust Sister Qiangwei this once?"
Xia Qiangwei’s voice softened gradually, even adding a touch of concern.
"Nian Nian, actually, there’s another reason I chose to come to you, and that’s because of the Seventh Young Master."
"Previously, the matter between you and the Seventh Young Master was a storm in itself, and now you’ve broken off the engagement with Young Master Ling, it’s not all for the Seventh Young Master, right?"
"As your older sister, I want to remind you that the Seventh Young Master is likely connected to this secret; it’s better not to get too close to him."
"I’ve said all I need to say. If you want to ask more, I won’t say anything more unless I receive a million."
"If three days later there’s still no movement in my account, this secret might remain forever a secret to you, so think it over carefully."
With that, Xia Qiangwei ended the call.
Xia Yinian remained standing there, still holding the phone to her ear.
Xia Qiangwei’s words, "The Seventh Young Master is likely connected to this secret," kept circling in her mind.
Xia Yinian remembered she once fantasized about being the young lady of the Feng Family, after all, she bore some resemblance to Grandma Feng and Mr. Feng.
