Snatching Women from the Male Lead

Chapter 35

Qin Zhao followed behind Qiao Qianrong.

Knowing that what she had done was effective, she felt relieved and her steps became lighter.

When they arrived at Sunshine Garden residential area, Qiao Qianrong passed through smoothly, but Qin Zhao was stopped again.

She lowered her eyelids a little, feeling unhappy.

Qiao Qianrong said to the security guard, "She's my guest."

Qin Zhao immediately put on a smile and made a face at the security guard before quickly catching up with Qiao Qianrong.

The security guard shook his head and shrugged, continuing to watch out for suspicious individuals coming and going.

What Qin Zhao didn't expect was that Qiao Qianrong lived on the 27th floor.

The problem wasn't how high the floor was, but that she refused to take the elevator and insisted on taking the stairs!

Qin Zhao was exhausted halfway to death.

Breathless, she arrived at the 27th floor, and what made her even more annoyed was that Qiao Qianrong, who was over 50 years old, didn't seem out of breath at all!

Comparing the two of them fully demonstrated her own inadequacy.

"Auntie, why don't you take the elevator?" Qin Zhao asked, panting heavily.

Qiao Qianrong glanced contemptuously at the sweat-drenched Qin Zhao and replied, "I want to have a healthy body and live a little longer. This is the only way I can possibly surpass him."

Qin Zhao thought to herself: Look at Nan Chenghui's current state, Qiao Qianrong has already won a complete victory.

Once inside the apartment, Qiao Qianrong had Qin Zhao sit on the sofa while she went into the bedroom.

A few minutes later, Qiao Qianrong came out holding something wrapped in cloth.

Sitting down across from Qin Zhao, she slowly began speaking: "There is a knife inside here. It's the knife Nan Chenghui used to try to stab me, but ended up killing my sister instead.

There is my sister's blood on the knife, along with Nan Chenghui's fingerprints."

Qin Zhao: !!

This was key evidence!

"After Nan Chenghui killed my sister, he panicked a bit and had Chen Xiao help him dispose of the murder weapon. This turned out to be a wrong decision for him.

Chen Xiao gave me this knife.

I know Chen Xiao wanted to keep leverage over Nan Chenghui, hoping to use it to control him someday in the future.

But I still accepted it.

Because I had the same idea.

But I could never bring myself to be ruthless with him. I'm a weak, indecisive woman ruled by emotion."

After recounting the past events, Qiao Qianrong abruptly changed the subject and asked, "My daughter, can you help me save her?"

Qin Zhao replied without any hesitation: "Of course."

"Thank you. Also, don't tell her that Nan Chenghui is her father.

A father like that is better off not existing."

"Mm."

Qiao Qianrong held the knife out in front of Qin Zhao, "I'm giving this knife to you, hoping you can accomplish what I wanted to do but couldn't."

Qin Zhao solemnly accepted it and said, "Alright, leave it to me."

Only at this point could the journey be considered complete.

After bidding farewell to Qiao Qianrong, Qin Zhao caught a taxi back to Yuncheng.

Outside hotel room 309, the front desk girl anxiously knocked on the door.

No one answered.

She frowned and knocked again.

Still no response!

A staff member happened to walk by and asked, "What are you knocking on this door for?"

The front desk girl glared at him, "Mind your own business."

The staff member glanced at the room number and reminded her, "The guest in 309 already checked out online."

The front desk girl clenched her fists as a urge to punch someone rose in her head!

The frightened staff member hurried away.

As he ran, he grumbled about how today's college students are so scary!

The front desk girl angrily shouted after him, "Say that again!"

The staff member ran even faster, yelling, "I won't say it, I won't say it!"

The front desk girl stamped her foot in anger and glared at '309', cursing under her breath that beautiful women are all liars!

Returning to the hotel lobby, a deliveryman happened to enter carrying a bouquet of sunflowers. He called out, "Who's the cute front desk girl?!"

The front desk girl: ?

She hesitantly went over and said to him, "That's me, what's up?"

The deliveryman looked her up and down several times, as if to confirm she was a cutie.

Then he shoved the flowers into her arms before hurriedly leaving to get his next order.

The front desk girl took out a card from the flowers. It read:

"A woman's mouth is a deceitful ghost. Don't get tricked next time.

Wishing you a happy mood.

Signed: Fox Spirit"

She chuckled and murmured, "Fox spirit, quite self-aware."

...

Qin Zhao leaned against the car window with her eyes closed and asked, "Were the flowers delivered?"

502: "They were, host. I really don't understand why you bothered with this extra step?"

"Stood her up, of course I should apologize. Most importantly, can't ruin Miss Chivalrous' reputation."

"Oh I see, didn't expect you to care about that."

Upon returning to Yuncheng, Qin Zhao was stunned by a big news story!

All the media in Yuncheng were reporting: "The heiress of Nan Group is getting married on May 7th. The groom is the third son of Shengde Group, Xu Yiyang."

A marriage between two wealthy families naturally attracted widespread attention.

Even when Qin Zhao went to eat noodles, she heard people discussing it.

At the company, Pei Fanzhi ruthlessly mocked Qin Zhao for failing to capture the girl's heart.

Other colleagues were discussing Xu Yiyang's identity.

"I once went to Nan Group to deliver some design drawings and saw him before. He's quite low-key, dresses very casually, didn't expect he's actually the youngest son of Shengde Group's chairman!"

"He's so handsome and rich too. I envy whoever gets to marry him."

"The heiress of Nan Group is also very beautiful!"

"Ah, my cousin's sister's friend went to the same high school as him. If only I'd known earlier to ask her to introduce us.

Maybe I could have gotten to know him, and would now get to receive their luxurious wedding invitations!"

...

Qin Zhao sat expressionlessly at her workstation, playing Original Fire.

After roasting for half a year, Miss and Xiao Yi's campfire finally extinguished.

The two of them hugged each other for warmth.

Taking the chance, Xiao Yi secretly kissed Miss.

In response, Miss also pecked Xiao Yi.

Qin Zhao suddenly asked the system, "Why didn't you tell me?!"

502 stammered, "I, I was afraid you couldn't handle it."

"Do I look like I can't handle it?"

"You look...

Qin Zhao: "..."

"I'm not lying this time, I really can handle it."

502 exclaimed in shock, "You've lied to me before?"

"No."

Her shoulder was tapped and Qin Zhao looked up to meet Shen Yixuan's eyes. She asked, "President Shen, did you need something?"
