Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 324 Her Bargaining Chip
However, those with superpowers and cultivators are always different power systems. Although there are countless superpowers in the world, it is difficult for those with superpowers to detect the schemes behind magic.

This is equivalent to the enemy being in the open while they are in the dark.

Even someone as powerful as Gu Xiyuan was at a loss for what to do.

It is unknown who wanted to use magic to control Xu Jiahao.

Yang Nianqing glanced at Gu Xiyuan and Gu Haolin, and unconsciously stroked the Phoenix Blood Jade. The matter of opening up their meridians needed to be put on the agenda, otherwise it would be a waste of their family's bloodline, and even a little devil might be able to ride on their heads.

Xu Daiqing woke up in a daze from the darkness. The first thing she saw was the white ceiling of the hospital ward. She looked around and saw that the room was empty. She was currently receiving an IV drip.

Has she been taken to the hospital?

Xu Daiqing gently stroked the back of her hand that was receiving an IV drip, and subconsciously reached for the bracelet on her wrist but found nothing.

Where's my bracelet?!

Xu Daiqing sat up in surprise and looked around frantically, but couldn't find the bracelet.

"Ouch!" Xu Daiqing gasped in pain as she accidentally pulled on the IV drip in her hand.

"You're awake? Don't move around, your blood is flowing back in!" A nurse pushed a trolley over, adjusted Xu Daiqing's IV drip, and changed her medication.

"Nurse, have you seen my bracelet?" Xu Daiqing quickly grabbed the nurse as she was about to leave.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Only after hearing her say that did the nurse realize that there was something she hadn't given her.

He took the fragments of the bracelet from under the trolley and handed them to Xu Daiqing. "This bracelet of yours exploded for no reason during your surgery just now. It was terrifying! How could something like this explode?"

The bracelet is broken? Xu Daiqing's pupils contracted and her face turned pale. After a long while, she came back to her senses and said evasively, "There was an electronic component inside that probably got short-circuited because it was wet with blood."

Xu Daiqing's reaction was normal, so the nurse didn't pay much attention, gave her a few instructions, and then left.

Holding the fragments of the bracelet, Xu Daiqing laughed self-deprecatingly, and the next moment tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.

Xu Jiahao has broken free of control, and she has nothing left. Gu Rongrong is slowly regaining her original feelings for her, and Xu Jiahao will soon follow suit. The identity of the Xu family's heiress will soon have nothing to do with her anymore.

Thinking of the couple she had recently contacted, Xu Daiqing gritted her teeth. Her resentment made her bite her gums until they bled. The taste of blood in her mouth also made her incredibly clear-headed. This matter today would definitely be trending on social media, and she could already imagine what the media would say!
Why would a wealthy heiress attempt suicide by cutting her wrists? It was because she hadn't thought things through properly. The bracelet started acting strangely, and she only wanted to control Xu Jiahao as soon as possible. She didn't expect the bracelet to go out of control, and she almost got herself killed.

And then, just today, someone brought up the fact that Yang Nianqing and Xu Nuofei look alike!

If this isn't handled properly, everyone will know she's lying, and things will be even harder to salvage.

Xu Daiqing fiercely wiped away her tears. She wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die! She wouldn't let Yang Nianqing take everything from her! That woman deserved that kind of life, those greedy parents! Since she was blindly filial and foolish enough to think that kind of family was better, why did she have to change anything! Yang Nianqing should stay in the Yang family for the rest of her life! Why should she compete with her for anything!

Her fingernails dug deep into her palm, and Xu Daiqing felt pain, but the tight grip on her hand brought her a sliver of clarity.

"Tsk tsk tsk, your fans should really see this side of you, they'll be disillusioned." A male voice suddenly rang out in the ward. Xu Daiqing looked up and saw Miao Haoqiong sitting calmly on the sofa.

Miao Haoqiong waved his finger, and a screenshot from a video floated in front of Xu Daiqing like a message; it was Xu Daiqing's own expression from just now.

"Look at that expression, it's terrifying. Wouldn't you become famous if you played a villain like that? How evil would that be?"

Playing a villain and then becoming famous for being criticized? Xu Daiqing looked at her own expression in the video without saying a word. Miao Haoqiong was just there to gloat. How could she be so foolish as to bother with him?

Seeing that Xu Daiqing remained silent, Miao Haoqiong also felt bored and dismissed the image.

He rested his chin on his hand, his tone playful yet tinged with regret, "I told you long ago, the bracelet is a double-edged sword. You almost ended up here today, but someone actually managed to free you from the bracelet's control by saving Xu Jiahao. What a pity. You should be even more resentful and have more resentment if you die from the backlash of the magic, which would be more useful to me. It's a shame you're so lucky."

Today, the bracelet just wouldn't absorb enough blood, and it even made her wounds worse. That's when she knew the bracelet was out of control. It was the first time she felt so close to death. She never thought she would survive thanks to Xu Jiahao for breaking free from its control!

Xu Daiqing looked at Miao Haoqiong, making no attempt to hide his true colors—greedy and vicious—"Do you have any way to help me control the Xu family again?"

Miao Haoqiong smiled knowingly, walked over, pinched Xu Daiqing's chin, and pulled her closer to him. "I remember saying that the same method wouldn't work on them anymore. Besides, why do you think you're worth me expending my energy and resources to help you get what you want? Aren't you overestimating yourself? Hmm?"

Miao Haoqiong's hand pinched her chin so hard it hurt. The two were very close, their breaths almost touching. Xu Daiqing felt disgusted looking at his old face, but if she wanted to get what she wanted, she had to please Miao Haoqiong. How could an ordinary person like her shake the superpowered people of the Gu family?
Not to mention, Yang Nianqing's man seems to be more capable than Gu Jia's.

To put it bluntly, she has no advantage in any aspect. The day Yang Nianqing truly returns to the Xu family, she will lose everything!
She absolutely would not allow Yang Nianqing to climb over her! She was the true heiress, the pride of heaven, and the darling of the gods!
"You'll do anything I ask, as long as you can help me!"

The implication of these words was self-evident, and Miao Haoqiong, releasing Xu Daiqing, couldn't help but let out a mocking laugh, "Hehehe..."

Miao Haoqiong's undisguised sarcasm disgusted Xu Daiqing. "What are you laughing at?"

Miao Haoqiong grabbed Xu Daiqing by the neck and pressed her onto the bed, his strength showing no mercy. "I've lived for so many years, what kind of woman haven't I tasted? They were all stunningly beautiful and charming. What are you? Do you really think I'm that indiscriminate?"

Xu Daiqing instinctively wanted to struggle, but she also knew Miao Haoqiong's temper, so she forced herself not to struggle, and soon her face turned bright red.

"Tch!" Miao Haoqiong let go of her, looking bored.

"Cough cough cough..." Xu Daiqing coughed, covering her neck, and looked at Miao Haoqiong with resentment. It was clearly this man who had acted ambiguously and lustfully, but now he was complaining about her.

But she was at the mercy of others, like a fish on a chopping board. She was just an ordinary person without any special abilities or magic, and she had no way to resist Miao Haoqiong! Miao Haoqiong was not short of money, and her only bargaining chip was the soul that Miao Haoqiong had taken a liking to. But if she gave up her soul, could she still live?
Besides her body, what other bargaining chips does she have?
Seeing that Miao Haoqiong had obviously aged a bit, Xu Daiqing suddenly had a flash of inspiration!
As far as she knew, Miao Haoqiong had lived for many years, and her true age was definitely not what she appeared to be. She had seen Miao Haoqiong become very young for a period of time, but then she would become older again after a while. In the past two years, she had maintained a balance, but now Miao Haoqiong was aging more and more obviously. Her only bargaining chip was her own soul, and she suspected that Miao Haoqiong wanted to use her soul to stay young.

Although it seems unbelievable, this possibility is not nonexistent. If Miao Haoqiong really needs human souls to maintain her youth or immortality, then she has some information that might help Miao Haoqiong and herself!
"I know you want to use human souls to stay young. I have some news that might be helpful to you!"

Miao Haoqiong raised an eyebrow. It wasn't surprising that this woman had guessed his purpose in wanting souls, but what could she do to help him? Could she capture ghosts for him like his disciple? Or would she provide him with spirit jade?
Don't be ridiculous. If she had that kind of ability, would she be acting like a stray dog? As for the spirit jade? Xu Daiqing herself probably wants it very much, otherwise she wouldn't be so eager to take over the position of the Xu family's daughter. This woman's money can't buy many pieces of ancient jade.

Seeing Miao Haoqiong's disdainful look, Xu Daiqing knew he looked down on her, but she didn't care. "I know about Bai Ze. Will that help you?"

The entire ward fell silent. Miao Haoqiong could almost hear his own heartbeat. His smile widened, and he blushed with excitement!
"The ancient mythical beast Bai Ze?"

Seeing this, Xu Daiqing breathed a sigh of relief. Very good, Miao Haoqiong was interested in Bai Ze's information. She made the right bet!
After receiving the booster vaccine, my hand swelled up with a big lump. The doctor said it was normal and didn't need any attention, but the lump is getting bigger and more painful. It's been like this for several days now, and I don't know when it will heal.
