From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love

Nan Qiao naturally noticed it too and wasn't too surprised.

"Have the PR department suppress the trending topic for now. I still need to cooperate with the police investigation. Doctor Zheng hasn't given me a conclusion yet, so I don't know why the models fainted."

"Mr. Qiao, I've already asked them to do so, but it's hard to suppress the trending topic."

"Do your best. It's okay if you can't." Nan Qiao hung up the phone.

Given the current situation, the only option is to investigate thoroughly before taking any further action.

At the same time, Zheng Qinnian came out of the monitoring room.

Zheng Qinnian looked very serious and grave, a look Nan Qiao rarely saw on him.

Nan Qiao knew the situation was serious.

"Qiaoqiao, let's talk over there," Zheng Qinnian said in a low voice.

Nan Qiao nodded and followed Zheng Qinnian to a secluded corner.

Zheng Qinnian spoke with a stern and worried tone about the results: "Qiaoqiao, the fabric used for the wedding dresses is harmful to the human body. The fabric was soaked in poison for a week, and today the effect is the weakest, but it still caused problems upon skin contact. Luckily, you didn't come into direct contact, or the consequences would be unimaginable."

Zheng Qinnian continued, "However, if you had come into contact, with your knowledge of toxins, you definitely would have noticed something was wrong."

But time cannot be reversed, and Nan Qiao couldn't go back and destroy this batch of wedding dresses.

"All of this is targeting me, or those around me," Nan Qiao said with certainty.

The people who knew about the wedding dress show were all close, so the one who harmed her was naturally among them.

"Can the toxicity still be detected if the wedding dresses are sent for inspection now?" Nan Qiao asked.

Zheng Qinnian shook his head.

Nan Qiao realized the gravity of the situation.

"Qiaoqiao, I've already sent the fabric to the testing department, hoping it will be of use." He had handled it as quickly as possible.

Yet, Zheng Qinnian couldn't be certain of its effectiveness.

"Thank you, you've done your best, I understand." Nan Qiao smiled faintly.

...

Under the night sky, a woman with a graceful silhouette laughed heartily.

"I'm finally about to topple Nan Qiao, seeing her fall from the peak into the dirt, so satisfying, just so satisfying."

"The matter hasn't been concluded yet, and you're this happy?" The man's voice revealed disdainful scorn.

The woman's laughter abruptly stopped, and she scolded angrily, "What do you know! Nan Qiao is now like an ant on a hot pan, utterly frantic. There's no solution to this; I don't believe she can handle such a tricky issue!"

The man remained silent.

The woman spoke with smugness, "I don't believe Nan Qiao can suppress this matter! She absolutely cannot!"

Man: "There's no absolute in anything."

Woman: "Shut your filthy mouth; I don't want to hear your nonsense."

Man: "..."

The two were about to start a fight, endlessly arguing.

The woman, furious and exasperated, shouted, "I'm telling you, don't ruin my plan. This will be the most perfect plan I've ever thought of, without exception."

"I also want to see just how perfect your plan is." The man turned and disappeared into the night.

The woman looked at his departing figure and snorted coldly, "Useless man."

...

Li Yehan finished his work and came to meet Nan Qiao.

Nan Qiao was explaining some precautions to Secretary Fu; the models' compensation had to be paid, and all medical expenses covered.

After giving her instructions, she raised her tired face and saw Li Yehan.

Nan Qiao perked up, smiled, and walked towards Li Yehan.

Nan Qiao took one step while Li Yehan took three, quickly reaching her.

"I bought you a meat bun. Have one to tide you over."

Li Yehan took out the meat bun, and its familiar aroma made Nan Qiao hungry.

The bun was filled with fried meat skewers, sausages, and vegetables; the mixed aroma was simply mouthwatering.

Nan Qiao took a bite of the bun and suddenly felt alive again.

"I'll take you home to rest first. I'll handle the subsequent matters."

Nan Qiao was about to say no, but Li Yehan spoke before her, "I'm your man. When things happen to you, do you intend to continue bearing it alone? Qiaoqiao, you should let me do something for you too."

With him saying that much, Nan Qiao naturally agreed.

"Alright then, let me try relying on a man." Nan Qiao joked with a smile.

The two walked side by side, and Li Yehan slowed his pace, walking behind Nan Qiao.

Zheng Qinnian carried back the food he fetched and saw Li Yehan and Nan Qiao leaving, a smile gradually fading from his face.

After a while, he smiled and went back with the food to eat himself.

Li Yehan took Nan Qiao back to the Bai Family.

Nan Qiao was surprised, "Why didn't you take me back to our home?"

"If I took you back, your family would be worried sick all night. By bringing you home, you can talk to them and feel better."

Nan Qiao felt warmth in her heart; Li Yehan was indeed thoughtful, thinking of every issue in the first moment.

This kind of man was flawless.

Nan Qiao hugged Li Yehan proactively, "Thank you."

"Silly girl, do we need to be so polite with each other? But if you want to thank me, tonight in bed, you…"

"Li Yehan, your mind is filled with too much dirty stuff. I refuse to talk to you."

With a single remark, he shifted gears, and she couldn't keep up with his pace.

Nan Qiao pushed away from Li Yehan and walked into the house while Li Yehan laughed and followed her.

As long as Nan Qiao could focus on other things, it was good, as it could divert her attention.

Bai Family members, upon learning Nan Qiao was coming back, all came out, waiting at the gate.

Nan Qiao saw the whole family waiting for her and felt moved yet guilty, making them worry about her.

Pretending to be relaxed, Nan Qiao walked up with a smile, "Why are you all out here? Go inside and wait; it's cold outside."

Chen Xinwan held Nan Qiao's hand, keeping it warm.

"Qiaoqiao darling, you haven't eaten dinner yet, right? Liu Feng made plenty of delicious food and prepared hot milk for you. Go in and take a look."

Nan Qiao: "Mom, just hearing you makes me hungry."

The mother and daughter walked inside, chatting and laughing, while Nan Qiao greeted the rest of the family.

Everyone looked at her with concern, watching her lose her appetite.

Nan Qiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a way to resolve this issue, so rest assured."

Bai Jingting: "What way? Sister, if there's anything we can help with, just say it. We're family, no need for formalities."

Bai Zhenyang: "Qiaoqiao, have you found out who is trying to harm you?"

Nan Qiao deliberately said this to prevent her family from worrying.

But the family still saw that this matter was very tricky.

They wanted to help Nan Qiao but hadn't found any evidence yet.

Chen Xinwan, fuming, said, "Have you found out? Whoever dares to harm my darling Qiaoqiao, I will not forgive them!"

Bai Zhenyang: "Qiaoqiao, have you already figured out who did this?"
