An Xiaoning did not approach him, and although she had yet to finish the food in her hands, she had suddenly lost her appetite.
She was instantly filled with anger.
The shock robbed her of her speech and made her legs turn to jelly.
She quickly took chase when she saw him walking away while holding the hot babe in his arm.
They did not take the stairs and boarded the elevator instead.
An Xiaoning followed closely behind.
She took a close look at the man and listened to his voice when he was talking to the babe, after which she immediately confirmed that he was Jin Qingyan, without a doubt.
The elevator ascended to the third floor.
Seeing that they had entered a private room, An Xiaoning could not tolerate it any further and decided to knock on the door.
The babe was the one who answered the door.
“Who are you looking for?”
“That man who was with you just now.”
The woman turned around and yelled into the bathroom, “Henry, someone’s looking for you.”
Jin Qingyan quickly exited and asked, “Who?”
The woman pointed at An Xiaoning and said, “Her.”
“You’re looking for me? I don’t know you. You must’ve gotten the wrong person.”
An Xiaoning tried her best to keep her breathing calm and stared at Jin Qingyan, who had eyeliner on and was wearing a pair of ear studs. “It’s me,” she said in her own voice.
He scrutinized her features and said with raised brows, “Miss, I shall repeat myself, I don’t know who you are.”
“Jin Qingyan!” An Xiaoning snapped angrily as she entered the room.
Noticing that she was entering, the woman quickly stopped her and said haughtily, “Henry has already said that he doesn’t know you. Hurry and get out.”
An Xiaoning gave the woman a tight slap. However, she had used a bit too much force and caused the woman to pass out right away.
She closed the door and glared at him coldly. “You don’t know me? Did you come to M Nation just to flirt with other women?”
“I’m not Jin Qingyan, you’ve gotten the wrong person,” he answered while taking a seat. With a dauntless expression on his face, he took out a cigarette and lit it up.
“If you’re not Jin Qingyan, who are you?”
“Ah... I’m his twin brother,” Jin Qingyan said sluggishly, sounding as if he really did not know her at all.
“What!?! Twin brother? You only have one sister. Since when do you have a twin brother? Jin Qingyan, have you gone berserk?” An Xiaoning questioned with a frown.
“What’s wrong with you, woman? The first thing you did when you entered was to slap my woman and knock her unconscious. You ruined my chance at having a good time. Why? Are you thinking of making it up to me by replacing that woman on the floor?”
He stubbed his cigarette onto the ashtray and stood up, after which he walked toward her slowly.
An Xiaoning’s tears began streaming down her face uncontrollably. She felt as if her heart had been ripped apart and was bleeding profusely, causing her to feel an excruciating pain in her chest that made it hard for her to breathe.
A sullen expression formed on his face the moment he saw that she had teared up. He glared at her with a look of disdain and hissed vehemently, “Scram.”
Boiling with exasperation, An Xiaoning lifted her leg and threw a spinning kick at him. The moment her foot landed on his face, he was thrown off balance and fell straight onto the couch.
She did not give him the chance to retaliate and instead struck him again with her palm, causing him to pass out.
Upon hearing the noise of the door being unlocked, An Xiaoning had no choice but to lean against the couch and play dead since she could not hide in time.
She opened her eyes slightly and watched as Fan Shixin entered the room. After testing Jin Qingyan’s breathing, he hurriedly dialed a few numbers.
Soon, four men showed up outside the door.
They were all Jin Qingyan’s bodyguards.
Two of them picked up Jin Qingyan and carried him out of the room while the rest of them quickly followed suit.
She opened her eyes the moment the door closed.
She swiftly opened the door and followed closely behind them.
An Xiaoning stepped on her brakes abruptly after watching their car drive toward the chateau.
She leaned back against the seat and recalled the scene that took place in the nightclub just now.
She forced herself to calm down and think rationally.
Jin Qingyan would never wear ear studs or dress in a firetruck-red suit, let alone put on eyeliner.
It was not like him at all.
Yet, it was clearly him, indeed. How can that be explained?
There was no way he couldn’t have recognized my voice or stayed so calm even after realizing who I was.
An Xiaoning was filled with bewilderment as a million questions flooded her mind.
How could an ordinary person behave so strikingly different from his usual self?
Unless... there was something wrong with him.
Jin Qingyan must be hiding something from me.
Without further hesitation, An Xiaoning drove straight toward the chateau and removed her wig and mask, after which she gave Fan Shixin a call.
“I’m right outside the chateau. Open the gate.”
Having been through all types of shocking situations before, Fan Shixin did not sound surprised and answered, “Alright, I’ll get to it right away.”
An Xiaoning was impressed with Fan Shixin’s ability to remain composed at almost all times. But then again, he wouldn’t be fit enough to be Jin Qingyan’s trusted right-hand man if he lacked that ability.
An Xiaoning drove the car in and said, “I rented this car. Help me return it tomorrow. There’s a name card that states the address of the car rental center inside the car.”
“Young Madam, when did you arrive?”
Staring at Fan Shixin while smiling, she answered, “Last night. I followed you for an entire day. I was one of the two women inside the room just now.”
The sarcastic smile on her face sent shivers down Fan Shixin’s spine. “Otherwise, how could he and that woman have been knocked out?” An Xiaoning added.
She took out the mask and wig from the car and showed them to him.
Fan Shixin was at a sudden loss for words after hearing her words and looking at the items in her hands. After a few moments of silence, he said, “Young Madam, come in with me. I’ll talk to you about this matter in private.”
“Alright.” She followed him inside the chateau.
The extravagance of the interior decor and furnishing was simply jaw-dropping.
She could tell that an exorbitant amount of money had been spent on the renovation.
She made her way up the spiral staircase together with Fan Shixin, who then led her into a room.
“Please take a seat, Young Madam.”
An Xiaoning sat down on the chair and said, “I won’t speak yet about how you and Jin Qingyan ganged up against me. I want to hear nothing but the truth. Shixin, I’m sure you know what kind of a person I am. Don’t hide a single bit of the truth from me.”
“I wouldn’t dare to,” said Fan Shixin.
She sneered, “You wouldn’t dare to? I asked you why he refused to contact me and you said that he had lost his mobile phone. Did he really misplace it?”
“No.”
An Xiaoning scoffed and asked, “What’s wrong with him tonight? Why did he act like a completely different person?”
Fan Shixin answered softly, “Young Sir’s ill.”
“What disease is he diagnosed with?”
“Young Madam, have you heard of schizophrenia?”
What!
His revelation was like a bolt out of the blue.
“You mean Qingyan is schizophrenic?” she asked.
Fan Shixin answered with a nod, “Young Sir told me about it himself after we returned from V Nation. Xiao Huang and Xiao Lu were the ones who first found something unusual with Young Sir. Young Sir then discovered that he had acted abnormally too after checking the playback of the surveillance camera footages. He even consulted a psychiatrist. He hasn’t suffered a lapse in a long while. Young Sir wanted me to keep it from you. In theory, there’s no cure for his condition, although the psychiatrist mentioned that the possibility of recovery is uncertain because it’s a severe psychological disorder. Once he overcomes it, it’s possible to fully recover.”
Dumbfounded, An Xiaoning said, “He didn’t want to tell me, but how long did he think he could hide it from me for?”
“Young Sir was just planning to keep it from you for as long as he could. He said that you’d definitely be upset once you learn about it. He was afraid that you would feel burdened because of his condition and hence never be able to experience genuine bliss again.”
