From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 412 Qiaoqiao, You Need My Company

Nan Qiao walked forward, planning to visit a pharmaceutical company.

Halfway there, she realized someone was following her.

Nan Qiao’s eyes shifted, and instead of heading to the pharmaceutical company, she turned in the opposite direction.

As she walked forward, the person behind her followed closely.

At the corner ahead, Nan Qiao quickened her pace, turned sharply, and kept walking.

The two men following her walked past the corner but found no trace of her.

"Big brother, where is she? Grew wings and flew away?"

"Second brother, let’s keep looking. This woman just vanished into thin air."

Just as they were about to leave, Nan Qiao leapt from between two walls and landed in front of them.

Nan Qiao crossed her arms and smirked playfully. "Oh my, looking for me?"

The two men were startled by Nan Qiao’s ghost-like appearance and instinctively looked up.

Did she just come down from between those two walls?

Could it be that she flew up there just now?

The two men exchanged a glance, their eyes wide with disbelief.

"How did you get up there?"

"Aren’t you a student? You know martial arts too?"

They shouted their questions in astonishment. When they were given the mission, the employer mentioned that Nan Qiao was ruthless and had exceptional martial arts skills.

After following her for so long, they couldn’t believe this seemingly fragile girl could know martial arts or be so ruthless.

But now they understood—it was all true.

Nan Qiao stepped back two paces. "Don’t yell at me. I’ve been afraid of dogs since I was little."

Leader: "Are you calling me a dog?"

"You’re quite self-aware. If my words aren’t clear enough, I can carve them on your tombstones. How’s that sound?"

The two men: "..."

What a sharp-tongued girl.

The leader lost his temper and roared, "You’re asking for death!"

As he spoke, he swung his arm at Nan Qiao.

Nan Qiao dodged with a swift move. He overexerted himself and fell flat on his face.

"Don’t come near me. I’m allergic to fools."

The two men: "..."

The second man charged forward, throwing a punch, but Nan Qiao caught his arm and forcefully twisted it. The sound of bones breaking echoed—his arm was fractured.

They never expected that this seemingly frail girl could be so swift and merciless.

The man on the ground pulled out a gun and pointed it at Nan Qiao.

"You’re dead meat!" Nan Qiao exclaimed confidently, holding the gun.

No one can escape from a firearm!

Nan Qiao sneered, "You’re quite confident in yourself, aren’t you?"

The man, infuriated, pulled the trigger.

Nan Qiao grabbed the man with the fractured arm, using him as a shield.

The bullet pierced the man’s body, making him cry out in agony.

The gunman started retreating while continuing to fire. A motorcycle sped toward him, and he successfully hopped on and fled.

Nan Qiao glanced at the corpse on the ground and called the police immediately.

Soon, the police arrived at the scene. Reviewing the surveillance footage along the way, they confirmed that Nan Qiao had been followed.

The two men turned out to be wanted murderers.

At that moment, a limited-edition Maserati pulled up and stopped by the roadside. A man got out with urgency, wrapped Nan Qiao tightly in his arms.

"Qiaoqiao."

The embrace was warm, and the voice by her ear was filled with worry, making Nan Qiao’s heart skip a beat.

"Li Yehan, I’m fine."

Nan Qiao reached out and hugged him back.

The warmth of his embrace made Nan Qiao feel utterly secure.

Li Yehan pulled away slightly, his thin lips pressed into a tight line, and his dark, deep-set eyes fixed on her face.

"Qiaoqiao, I’ve already sent people to track them down. I’m going to kill them!"

"Li Yehan, calm down. I’ve already called the police. They’ll take care of it."

Li Yehan gave a slight grunt in response. Though he said nothing, his silence clearly indicated his disagreement with Nan Qiao’s words.

Those bastards dared to mess with his Qiaoqiao—they deserved a lesson!

"Let’s go. I haven’t eaten yet, and I’m a bit hungry."

Nan Qiao got into Li Yehan’s car.

"Li Yehan, take me home. I promised my third brother I’d have dinner at home tonight."

Li Yehan smiled helplessly. "Qiaoqiao, can’t you promise me to have dinner with me every day?"

"Most of the time when you ask me out, it’s just for dinner. I’ve shared plenty of meals with you already." Nan Qiao said while typing a message on her phone.

"If I didn’t ask you to dinner, but suggested a date instead, you’d definitely refuse to meet me." Li Yehan sighed helplessly.

Nan Qiao was too busy. The only way he could meet her was by inviting her for meals, and it had to be right at mealtime.

If he didn’t time it perfectly with dinner, he wouldn’t even be able to find her.

Nan Qiao looked up and met Li Yehan’s resigned gaze. She smiled slyly. "Next time, you don’t need to time it with meals. But honestly, you’re busy during other times as well, so even then we might not have time to go on a date."

Li Yehan: "..."

What she said... wasn’t wrong.

"How about this—let’s schedule a time. I’ll finish my work before then so I can spend time with you. How’s that?"

Nan Qiao shook her head, put her phone down, and said, "No need for that. We’re both busy. Let’s just meet once we’re done with our tasks."

Li Yehan: "..."

"Qiaoqiao, with that logic, we might not even see each other in a day."

Nan Qiao grinned mischievously. "You’re absolutely right."

"Li Yehan, don’t tell my family about me being followed. I don’t want them to worry."

"Okay, I’ll do as you say. But can you free up some time tomorrow during the day for a date?"

"Tomorrow’s no good. I’ve got too much going on."

Li Yehan sighed and continued driving her home.

No date scheduled, and now he had to face Nan Qiao’s three brothers.

The road to marriage was long and arduous.

...

The Bai Family hadn’t eaten yet; they were waiting for Nan Qiao to return.

When she finally came home, accompanied by Li Yehan, the family’s joyful expressions turned noticeably less cheerful.

Nan Qiao walked over with a bright smile. "Mom, Dad, big brother, second brother, third brother, you haven’t eaten yet? You really didn’t have to wait for me. If you’re hungry, you should eat first."

Chen Xinwan held Nan Qiao’s hand and said, "Qiaoqiao darling, we’re not hungry as long as you’re not back."

Bai Zhenyang added, "Qiaoqiao, now that you’re back, we can finally eat happily."

Bai Jingrui moved to stand on Nan Qiao’s other side, as if guarding her from Li Yehan claiming that spot.

"Sis, are you hungry? Let’s eat. We made squirrelfish, chestnut pastries, and mung bean soup today."

Nan Qiao, who loved these sweet dishes, beamed. "You made all my favorites!"

Everyone sat down to eat.

Li Yehan was sandwiched between Bai Zhenyang and Bai Jingting, strategically far from Nan Qiao.

The meal left Li Yehan feeling quite annoyed.

...

In the stillness of the night, Li Yehan climbed in through the window.

Nan Qiao had just lain down in bed when she heard an unusual sound.

Turning her head, she saw Li Yehan already standing in her room, changing into slippers.

"Qiaoqiao, I’ll sleep here with you tonight."

Nan Qiao twitched her lips. "That’s really not necessary."

"No, Qiaoqiao, you need my company."

Nan Qiao: "..."

Speechless.

Li Yehan lay down, very well-behaved.

Nan Qiao turned on her side, looking at the handsome and extraordinary Li Yehan.

Even up close, there wasn’t a single flaw to be found on his features.

"Li Yehan, I highly suspect you’re hiding some unspeakable secret about why you’re with me."
