She's come clean; the fake heiress has a ton of aliases.

Chapter 280 Keeping a Secret
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and a downpour looked imminent.

Nan Yu looked at Chen Li in front of her, her cold eyes slightly lowered.

"Secretary Chen, what do you want to ask?"

The biting cold wind blew against Chen Li, adding to her desolate and chilly feeling.

She suppressed her trembling and said calmly, "Dr. Li, it's about to rain heavily. Why don't we find somewhere to talk?"

Nan Yu glanced at the dark sky and nodded, saying, "Go to your car."

Chen Li immediately stepped back to make way.

"Dr. Li, this way please."

As Nan Yu walked out of the factory, out of the corner of her eye, she saw X get into her car from where Chen Li couldn't see him.

She felt relieved and got into Chen Li's car.

The two had just gotten into the car when a torrential downpour began.

Rumbling--

A deafening clap of thunder followed immediately.

Chen Li watched as large raindrops pounded against the car window, instantly obscuring her view and making it impossible to see anything outside.

She slowly turned her head to look at Nan Yu beside her, her eyes revealing a hint of composure.

“Dr. Li, I’m here to see you today on the orders of the head of the family.”

Nan Yu slowly shifted her gaze from the window to Chen Li, raising an eyebrow.

"Order?"

After a moment's thought, Chen Li said, "Dr. Li, our family head already knows that you are not actually Li Yingying, or rather, Li Yingying is just a false identity used to hide your true identity."

Upon hearing this, a dark glint flashed in Nan Yu's eyes. "Is that so?"

Seeing that Nan Yu did not deny it, Chen Li knew that the first step of her deception had succeeded. She adjusted her smile, her expression becoming slightly more relaxed than before. "Dr. Li, we have no ill intentions. After finding out about this, apart from telling the head of the family, no one else knows that your identity is fake. You don't need to worry about being exposed."

"Furthermore, the patriarch instructed me to completely erase all information that could reveal your false identity, ensuring that no one will be able to find out that Li Yingying's identity is fake."

Upon hearing this, Nan Yu's eyes showed even greater wariness.

"Secretary Chen, what is your purpose in doing so much for me?"

There's no such thing as a free lunch. The Huo family head went to great lengths to conceal her identity, so what he wants from her is probably not simple.

Chen Li put on a professional smile. "Dr. Li, this is a token of our sincerity from the head of the family. I believe you can tell that we have no ill intentions."

Nan Yu remained silent, waiting for her to continue.

Chen Li continued, "Dr. Li, the head of the family did so much just to find out your true identity. Would you be so kind as to let me see what you look like?"

Nan Yu instantly understood her intention and chuckled softly.

"You've said so much just to find out my true identity?"

Chen Li nodded solemnly, "Yes, Dr. Li."

She paused, then assured him, "You don't need to worry about us exposing your true identity. I will absolutely keep my mouth shut and will not reveal your true identity to anyone."

Looking at the pleading in Chen Li's eyes, Nan Yu heard the heavy rain and thought of the rainy night when the Huo family head saved her.

She still believed what Chen Li said.

Otherwise, the news that they had saved her and that she was still alive would have spread throughout City A long ago, and her plan would not have proceeded so smoothly.

Chen Li waited quietly for Nan Yu's reply, feeling tormented for the first time, and even feeling the car interior heat up.

She held up three fingers of her right hand, her expression serious and earnest.

“Dr. Li, if you don’t believe me, I swear to God that if I reveal your true identity, may I be struck by lightning.”
