Nameless Nie was silent for a long while before replying, “Right, Sister, you’re too correct. Why didn’t I think of that? Nie Linglong returned without any fear, so she must be certain we don’t have any evidence. If we did anything to her, it would be our problem. The elders and higher-ups have always leaned toward Nie Linglong. Thankfully I called you or else I would’ve been tricked! That motherf*cker!”
Ye Wanwan was at a loss for words. Nameless Nie was too impulsive and did things without thinking, so he’d eventually get into deep trouble.
“What should we do now? Should we find some evidence first?” Nameless Nie asked.
“Don’t worry. Since Nie Linglong dared to come back, you definitely won’t find any evidence. You mustn’t underestimate this sister of ours. Just act as though nothing happened,” Ye Wanwan replied.
“Act as though nothing happened?” Nameless Nie was startled.
“Heh. Nie Linglong definitely expects you to pull something against her, but if we do the opposite and act as though nothing happened, who knows who will be the one leading the other person by their nose?” Ye Wanwan snorted.
“Right right right, your analysis is on the nose! Actually, that’s why I called you! So that you wouldn’t be led by the nose by her!” Nameless Nie said.
Ye Wanwan: “…” Freaking… do you have the nerve to be any more shameless?!
The next morning, Ye Wanwan got a call from Madam Nie urging her to go home because there was something important to discuss.
At the Nie residence:
Madam Nie and Patriarch Nie sat on the sofa while Nie Linglong docilely and respectfully stood on the side. “Mother, Father, don’t worry. While you aren’t home, I’ll carefully look after everything.”
“Be sure to watch over your brother carefully. Don’t allow him to cause a mess outside,” Madam Nie instructed worriedly.
Nameless Nie was lying on the second sofa, shaking his leg and playing a game. When he heard that, he immediately raised his head and complained, “Mom, can’t you think better of me?”
Madam Nie rolled her eyes at him. “You’d first need to have something better for me to think about!”
Nameless Nie: “…”
He seriously thought he should’ve been the one to test his DNA. He definitely wasn’t their biological child!
Nie Linglong glanced at a nearby servant, and the servant hastily brought over a pile of big and small exquisitely wrapped and high-end gift boxes.
Nie Linglong said, “Oh right, Mother, this is some ginseng and swallow’s nest I had someone specifically bring back from China, as well as some tonics and supplements. You and Father work so hard, so you must keep your health up.”
Madam Nie nodded. “You’re very considerate.”
Patriarch Nie had a complicated expression as he looked at the docile and sensible Nie Linglong.
After the fake Worriless was exposed, he thoroughly investigated the entire Nie family but didn’t discover any clues or traces.
Since he was going to Jin City now, he could investigate it further there.
At that moment, spry footsteps could be heard outside the door.
Holding a plastic bag, Ye Wanwan entered the house while beaming.
“Dad, Mom!”
When Madam Nie heard her daughter’s charming voice, the dignified and elegant expression on her face was instantly replaced with joy and affection. She immediately stood up and walked forward. “Wanwan, you’re back!”
Madam Nie caught sight of the item in Ye Wanwan’s hand and casually asked, “What are you holding, Wanwan?”
Ye Wanwan promptly carefully opened the packages tightly wrapped in foil like she was showing off a treasure and replied, “These are fried skewers! I bought them from a super famous food stall in the southern district and had to line up two hours to buy them! I was afraid they’d get cold, so I sped back on my way home. It’s still hot right now! Try it, Dad, Mom!”
