Chapter 923: Other than dead people, no one knows my secret.

“Shh! Don’t get too agitated. Just like you, I know your little secret, too.”

Qiao Jingyun glanced at the agitated woman, then picked up her coffee cup, and took a big sip elegantly.

“What exactly do you mean?! Don’t play mysterious!”

Pei Shishi glared at her with a heart dangling by a thread.

“Play mysterious? Do you think I need to do that with you?”

Qiao Jingyun picked up the spoon and began enjoying her dessert.

Bang!

Seeing her pretentious manner, Pei Shishi slammed her hand heavily on the table.

“… What do you mean by this?!”

For some reason, there was a sense of insecurity in her heart.

Even though she knew that her secret was safe, and that no one could possibly find out about it, she still…

Raising her head to look at the other’s smiling face, her heart trembled.

This woman! Does she know something?!

B-But not even father knows about it!

That thing… only I and my dead uncle knew of it.

T-There’s no way others would know!

Yes! This cunning woman must be testing me! She must be lying!

Qiao Jingyun enjoyed her coffee and dessert, especially the changing expressions of the person sitting across her.

“I don’t have a guilty conscience, nor do I have any little secret. I’m not scared of the secret that you speak of,” Pei Shishi said with false bravado, eking out a sneer as she looked at her.

“Oh… really?” After she swallowed the cake, Qiao Jingyun’s mouth was enveloped by a sickening sweetness.

“I, on the other hand, think that if this little secret gets out, big things will happen. It may even affect the Pei family.”

She smiled at the woman fixedly.

The originally calm woman before her started panicking when she heard her words. Even her eyes were filled with fear.

“That’s impossible! How could you have known?! There’s no one else around; you wouldn’t have known! That’s unless uncle—”

Pei Shishi covered her mouth to cut off her remaining words.

Uncle? Could it be Pei Shishi’s uncle?

Listening to her panicked rambling, Qiao Jingyun felt that she had touched on some shocking secret of this woman.

“He he! Haven’t you heard? If you don’t want others to find out, then don’t do it in the first place. Don’t you think someone else could’ve seen you in action? Do you really think that, just because you didn’t see anyone besides your uncle, there’s really no one else around?”

Looking at the changing expressions of hater face, she pretended to have known everything.

“That couldn’t be! There’s definitely no one else in that alley that day, and there weren’t even CCTVs! No one else could’ve found out! Besides, if someone else had seen it, he wouldn’t have died, so you’re definitely making things up!”

After she said that, Pei Shishi stood up and hurriedly left the place with a panicky look. It completely escaped her mind that she was the one who had asked out Qiao Jingyun.

She also forgot her original motive. She just hurried out of the place in utter shock and fear.

Looking at the fleeing back of the woman, Qiao Jingyun knitted her brows together, and then a light flashed across her eyes.

“Things are really getting interesting now…”

I seem to have found something big!

She curled her lips into a smile.

Pei Shishi, her cousin, and her uncle…

Oh, things seem to be getting more and more interesting.

She drained the coffee in her cup and left the place in an upbeat mood.

That secluded corner was now empty.

Unbeknown to her was that, immediately after she left, someone else showed up at the corner that she had vacated.

“Miss Qin, now that the place is empty, do you want to be seated over here instead of at the next table?”

The person who showed up was none other than Qin Qitong.

She was dressed in a blue, polka-dot dress, which made her seem lively and cute.

It was clear that she was on a date, especially because there was a good-looking guy standing next to her.

“It’s fine. We’re going to leave now.”

She put her hand through Bi Zheng’s arm and waved before they left the café.

She only voiced her concerns when they got in the car.

“Say, Zhengzheng; what were those two talking about? I don’t really get it.”

She frowned, her voice full of confusion.

“What are they hiding? Why is their conversation so roundabout?”

Even though she was able to eavesdrop from where she was seated earlier, the two women’s conversation was just too vague.

It would always be cut off at the main point.

Therefore, even though she heard quite a bit, she had no idea what the two women were exactly talking about.

“I can confirm that Qiao Jingyun’s secret is related to my cousin, but as for Pei Shishi… I really have no idea.”

She wrinkled her nose and looked at the man next to her.

“Say, Zhengzheng; since I didn’t catch anything, I have nothing to tell Sister Pei Ge about…”

Her intention for eavesdropping was to get her hands on some juicy news to tell Pei Ge and be rewarded in return, but she ended up failing to get learning anything interesting.

She only got more confused than before.

With a straight face, the man told her seriously, “I think that it’s better if you don’t call me Zhengzheng.”

“No! I want to call you Zhengzheng! It’s so cute!”

“…”

“Zhengzheng, Zhengzheng, Zhengzheng, Zhengzheng!”

“Up to you.”

“He he!”

By the time she was done teasing the man, calling Pei Ge about this matter had long escaped her mind. All her attention was now on him.
