Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 270 Love Rival
Miao Haoqiong looked at his palm and decisively went to the study to take out a box. He took out an ancient paper book from it, which he remembered contained a magic array.

Legend has it that the phoenix is ​​the king of all birds and an ancient mythical beast. Not all phoenixes are phoenixes; some phoenixes give birth to peacocks, and peacocks give birth to roc. Although that woman was not a descendant of that phoenix, strictly speaking, peacocks and phoenixes are related by blood.

Miao Haoqiong carefully examined the principle behind the magic array and found it to be quite feasible; he wouldn't lose anything.

Following the instructions below, Miao Haoqiong set up the magic array. He cut his palm, and bright red blood with a hint of green dripped into the array. The array lit up briefly and then quickly dimmed. Miao Haoqiong bandaged his palm with a grim expression. It seemed that he had been too presumptuous. That silly woman's blood could not find the phoenix at all, or was it because the blood had already merged into his body, and his own blood was affecting her peacock blood?
Miao Haoqiong fell into deep thought.

Yang Nianqing took Gu Tangtang and Fan Meini to eat. It was rush hour and the restaurant was crowded, but Yang Nianqing and the others were lucky enough to get seats.

"Sister-in-law, the food at this restaurant is amazing, five-star quality! It's just that it's a bit hard to book a private room, and it's also hard to get a membership. I don't have a membership either, but it's okay, we can eat in the main hall. The food is definitely worth the wait!" Fan Meini excitedly grabbed Yang Nianqing. Usually, when they come during peak hours, there are no seats available without a reservation. Today is really lucky!

Gu Tangtang nodded quickly, "Me too, I love it here."

"I heard the owner here is very influential, so it's not a place where you can just buy a membership if you have money," Qin Lan said, glancing at the signboard.

"As long as the food tastes good! I want this! Spicy fish lips!" Mo Mo flipped through the menu and was immediately drawn to a picture. It looked delicious, and she couldn't wait to try it!

Fan Meini and Gu Tangtang ordered a huge amount of food, catering to everyone's tastes.

"I heard from the police today that it was really dangerous. It seems we need to intensify your training. During your holiday, you can go with your sisters Mo Mo and Guan Yu to train with A Chen. There are other people there to accompany you." Yang Nianqing believed that it was better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. The Fan and Gu families were both wealthy and had many enemies, so it was inevitable that they would encounter some extreme individuals.

It's not good for Fan Meini and Gu Tangtang to be too weak. Actually, they have protective magic artifacts given to them by Yang Nianqing, so bullets can't hurt them at all. But Yang Nianqing doesn't plan to tell them this fact. After experiencing Xu Anyu's silly behavior, if the two of them knew what abilities the jewelry she gave them had, they might take advantage of the magic artifacts and act recklessly. What if they mess things up?

"Ah..." The two of them groaned in distress. They had seen the people Fan Ruichen was currently training with, and the intensity of the training was insane. Those armed bandits had really ruined them.

"Nini? What are you doing here? Why do you look like that? Did someone bully you?" Several women walked over, and a woman in a white dress suddenly stopped and called out to Fan Meini, but her eyes secretly glanced at Yang Nianqing.

She disliked this woman at first sight. Her intuition told her that the most beautiful woman in the room was likely Fan Ruichen's rumored girlfriend, and that she was having dinner with Fan Meini. She was probably right.

She followed all of Fan Meini's friends, but she had never seen these unfamiliar faces before, and among these women, she disliked the prettiest one sitting in the middle the most.

The face seemed somewhat familiar, but she was certain she had never seen it before!
"Sister Ziyan? What are you doing here?" Fan Meini turned around and was stunned for a moment. After realizing what Liu Ziyan had said, Fan Meini shook her head in confusion. Why did she say that? Did she make any kind of expression?

Liu Ziyan smiled and said, "I just got back from abroad. I had dinner with some friends here today. It's been a long time since I've seen you. Aren't you going to introduce me?"

"Oh," Fan Meini responded, and then introduced them one by one.

"Ah Chen's girlfriend? Nice to meet you." Liu Ziyan smiled at Yang Nianqing and extended her hand to him.

"Ah Chen?" Yang Nianqing murmured as well. It was the first time he had ever heard a woman call Fan Ruichen so intimately. Who was this person?
Fan Meini finally realized that something was wrong. Liu Ziyan was obviously hostile to her sister-in-law, and she was calling her brother so affectionately! It was as if she was very close to her older brother, even though her brother had never paid much attention to her since they were young.

"It's my fiancée. My brother and sister-in-law are already preparing for their wedding." Her brother finally found a girlfriend, so she couldn't let him ruin it. What if her sister-in-law got angry?
Liu Ziyan's smile froze for a moment, and her hand under her bag clenched imperceptibly. She took a deep breath and said, "Really? I remember Achen isn't even of legal marriage age yet, is he? Getting married so soon? Why didn't he tell me? That's so unfair! We've been friends since we were kids. Next time, I really have to make him invite me to dinner to apologize."

"Make amends with a meal?" Yang Nianqing chuckled. It seemed this was undoubtedly a rival in love. Had they grown up together since childhood?

Fan Meini glanced at Liu Ziyan, then at Yang Nianqing. Liu Ziyan's hand remained raised, while Yang Nianqing simply watched her quietly without making a move.

When rivals meet, their eyes are always blazing with hatred—this is a battleground! Fan Meini declared that she would firmly state her position and stand on her sister-in-law's side. It's obvious that her brother has no feelings for Liu Ziyan anymore. If he really had feelings, Liu Ziyan would have been her sister-in-law long ago. Why would he have waited until now?
“My brother is almost of marriageable age, and there’s no way around it. My sister-in-law is just too outstanding. We should settle her down sooner rather than later. What if someone tries to take her away from my brother? My brother has been single for over twenty years. He’s so lucky to have met my sister-in-law. Of course, he has to hold on tight. Don’t you agree, Sister Ziyan?” Fan Meini said to Liu Ziyan with a smile.

Liu Ziyan felt her breath catch in her throat. Fan Ruichen had only gone to Jiangcheng during his vacation, how come he already had a girlfriend when he came back? And it seemed that Fan Meini had been won over by this woman. It had only been three months, why was everything so different! But her years of upbringing prevented her from doing anything shameful. Everything had to be done slowly. Liu Ziyan believed that the woman most suitable for Fan Ruichen, the woman most worthy of Fan Ruichen, was only her!
Liu Ziyan quickly composed herself and smiled gently and elegantly, "Yes, Miss Yang is so beautiful, Ah Chen is truly blessed."

"Thank you." Yang Nianqing smiled back at her. With a stunning face just like Xu Nuofei's, coupled with her unique temperament, her smile made her even more beautiful. The women behind Liu Ziyan were all stunned.

In this war without gunfire, Yang Nianqing won without uttering a single word!

Like attracts like, and opposites repel each other. Women are naturally inclined to dislike other women, especially those who are more beautiful than themselves. However, everyone has a love of beauty, and appreciating beauty is a human instinct.

So the group was a little stunned. She was really beautiful, and she looked so familiar. Had they seen her somewhere before? They were sure they had never seen Yang Nianqing before.

"You must be Fan Ruichen's sister. Your brother hasn't been to school for a long time. Has he stopped coming to school?" a woman behind Liu Ziyan asked in confusion.

She had overheard Fan Ruichen mentioning he had a girlfriend at school and immediately told Liu Ziyan. But Fan Ruichen hadn't come to school since. She was planning to rely on news about Fan Ruichen to get through university. She glanced at the new bag she was carrying; a bag from a major American brand cost over 10 yuan. This was the reward she received from Liu Ziyan for reporting Fan Ruichen. Even if she depreciated the bag, she could still get 8 or 9 yuan. If Fan Ruichen stopped coming, her life would plummet. She'd gotten used to this lifestyle; if Liu Ziyan stopped giving her money, how would she survive at university?
Therefore, she wanted Fan Ruichen and Liu Ziyan to be together more than anyone else.

Fan Meini glanced at her. Who was this person? She seemed to be her brother's classmate, but they probably weren't very close. Anyone who was close to her brother knew that he was graduating early.

“My brother is graduating early; he won’t be going back to school,” Fan Meini said.

Liu Ziyan clenched her fists again, her nails digging deep into her flesh. He had actually disrupted his original plans for this woman? He was actually preparing to graduate early! What did this woman have that gave him the right?
"Hehe, is that so..." The woman laughed awkwardly. Now it was all over; her money tree had flown away.

"Miss Yang looks so young. Are you still studying? What school do you go to? I'm curious how you met A-Chen. Is A-Chen bad-tempered? Hehe, he's been like this since he was little, so he rarely has female friends. I guess I'm the only one. If he makes you angry, just tell me, and I'll teach him a lesson for you." Liu Ziyan asked with an innocent and curious expression, as if she were concerned about a friend's love life, making it seem like she was very familiar with Yang Nianqing and cared about her a lot. But her words kept implying that she was very familiar with Fan Ruichen.

"Really? Achen hasn't mentioned you to me, so I don't know. He rarely makes me angry, and he wouldn't dare to. Don't worry. As for studying, I'm no longer studying." Yang Nianqing chuckled. What was this woman trying to do? Was she checking his household registration?

Liu Ziyan was taken aback by Yang Nianqing's words. She covered her mouth in surprise, "Miss Yang is only 19 years old and has already stopped studying? I thought Miss Yang was in college. How could she have stopped studying so early?"

Yang Nianqing: "…………"

She never said she was 19 years old, did she? This woman had checked her records. Yang Nianqing was speechless. She felt embarrassed watching this woman's acting. Was it really okay to force herself to be familiar with someone on the first meeting? Besides, she had been standing there for half a day. Didn't she realize she was disturbing them? And didn't she think she was talking too much?

Seeing that Yang Nianqing didn't speak, Liu Ziyan smiled apologetically. "Am I talking too much? I'm so sorry, Miss Yang. I just can't stop talking when I see someone I like. Achen and the others also say I'm a chatterbox. I'm sorry, did I scare you?"

Ugh, this acting is so awkward. Anyone with eyes can see what she means. Her intentions are obvious to everyone.

"I'm not so scared as to say anything else. Is there anything else?" Yang Nianqing waved his hand and said.

"Excuse me, could you please move aside?" At this moment, the waiter stood behind Liu Ziyan with a tray.

Liu Ziyan turned slightly to the side, allowing her to place the plate on the table.

Liu Ziyan was surprised that Yang Nianqing had embarrassed her like this. After glancing at everyone's expressions, Liu Ziyan realized that she had lost her composure. She forced a smile, thinking that there was plenty of time in the future and there was no need to rush.

"I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. Miss Yang, see you next time. Nini, I'll visit Aunt Meixin another day." Liu Ziyan said goodbye to everyone and left.

Gu Tangtang nudged Fan Meini, "Who's this? She likes my brother-in-law, right?"

Fan Meini nodded. "It's quite obvious."

"Of course, he just kept chuckling and pretending to be familiar with me. It was so awkward it was hilarious." Gu Tangtang pouted. She could tell that her brother-in-law was rich and handsome, so how could no woman not like him?

But Gu Tangtang wasn't worried at all that Fan Ruichen would like another woman. Although they hadn't known each other for long, they had seen how Fan Ruichen treated her cousin these past few days. Moreover, her cousin had been gone for 19 years before they found her again. How could their family not investigate the people around her cousin?

Fan Ruichen's personality is no secret in high society. He dislikes being touched by women and hates women. Any physical contact with women makes him feel disgusted. He has even seen a psychologist, but it has not helped. So even though Fan Ruichen is outstanding and is the kind of child that everyone admires, he is still gossiped about in high society and is not the ideal son-in-law in the eyes of many parents.

But he is the most suitable for her cousin. Although he is not very friendly to other women, he is special to her cousin. Given her cousin's childhood experiences, Fan Ruichen's unique favoritism is more suitable for her cousin. Therefore, the Gu family does not mind Fan Ruichen's problem at all. On the contrary, they hope that Fan Ruichen will continue to maintain it.

The Gu family also investigated and found that Fan Ruichen had never been close to any girl since birth. Liu Ziyan's actions could only fool those who didn't know the situation. Did she think that this would drive a wedge between her cousin and brother-in-law?
Wow, they all live in high society, how can they be so naive?

Despite this little incident, it didn't affect Yang Nianqing's mood at all, and everyone chatted and laughed as the day passed.

After a few days of calm, Yang Nianqing was sitting alone in the courtyard drawing talismans when a gust of cold wind came. Yang Nianqing stopped writing, his spiritual power was interrupted, and the talisman paper exploded with sparks and was completely destroyed.

"Did I disturb you?"

Yang Nianqing looked up and saw Fan Mixue's figure slowly emerge. She tore off the discarded talisman and said, "It's alright."

Fan Mixue sat down next to Yang Nianqing.

"Seven days have passed so quickly? What? Are you reluctant to let it go?" Seeing Fan Mixue's silent demeanor, Yang Nianqing couldn't help but sigh.
