Chapter 413: 384 The Fake Heiress, The True Illegitimate Daughter, The Diviner’s Prediction [2 updates]
Inside sat a woman.
The woman was wearing a luxurious tweed coat and had rings on her fingers.
But her demeanor exceedingly mismatched her outfit, and was even somewhat comical.
“What are you doing in Shanghai City?” Ying Zhenting looked at the woman, frowning, “You just show up like this, what if you are discovered?”
Upon hearing this, the woman lifted her head. freēwebnovel.com
Her eyes were exactly like Ying Yuexuan’s.
If the two were together, no one would doubt that they were mother and daughter.
“What’s there to be afraid of?” Jing Hongzhen was not the least bit concerned, as she fidgeted with her fingers, “If she could have found out, she would have done so over a decade ago. Why wait until today?”
“Besides, I’ve already made arrangements around here, absolutely no one knows us.”
Ying Zhenting didn’t say a word, but he sat down too.
Jing Hongzhen took a sip of her coffee and began, “I heard Xiao Xuan brought a doctor to treat the Old Madam?”
At the mention of this, Ying Zhenting’s expression softened slightly, “Correct, the surgery will start on Saturday afternoon.”
“When it comes to crucial moments, we still have to rely on Xiao Xuan,” Jing Hongzhen chuckled sardonically, “That so-called true heiress doesn’t even have a shred of filial piety. Look at her, winning some international competition slot, yet she can’t even bring a doctor.”
Ying Zhenting became visibly agitated, “Don’t even mention her.”
“Okay, okay, I won’t mention her,” Jing Hongzhen laughed again, “but you must admit that our daughter is more outstanding.”
She paused before adding, “What do you think, would your wife collapse even more if she knew that her daughter’s disappearance years ago had your hand in it?”
Ying Zhenting’s expression darkened, “It’s one thing to mention it to me, but don’t ever say that in front of her; her mental state is already not good.”
“I’m not that foolish,” Jing Hongzhen said lightly, “If I ran off to tell Zhong Manhua that Xiao Xuan is our daughter, I’m aware of how she would treat Xiao Xuan.”
Zhong Manhua, no matter how much she values her interests, would certainly not tolerate such a situation.
Ying Zhenting gave her another warning glance, “You’d best remember and not stay in Shanghai City any longer; it’s better if you go back to O continent as soon as possible.”
He had purchased a house for Jing Hongzhen in a small coastal country to the north of O continent, where she had lived over these years.
These years, Ying Zhenting had seldom returned from the O continent in part because of Jing Hongzhen.
“No rush, I haven’t seen Xiao Xuan in a long time; I want to see more of her,” Jing Hongzhen said as she pulled out a tissue and wiped her mouth, “Don’t worry, I know my limits. Of course, it would be best if you could let me into the Ying Family sometime.”
“Impossible,” Ying Zhenting didn’t even think before he refused, “I will never divorce Manhua. Allowing Xiao Xuan to become the young mistress of the Ying Family is already the biggest concession.”
Jing Hongzhen’s expression changed briefly, then she smiled again, “That’s true, the Old Madam also values family background, and she would never let someone from a declining family like mine into the Ying Family.”
Ying Zhenting said no more, finished his coffee, and left.
Jing Hongzhen remained seated in the same spot, seemingly lost in thought.
**
Saturday morning.
Ying Zijin and Doctor Nora had agreed on a time in the afternoon, and after setting this, she turned on her computer and logged into the NOK forum.
Her Divine Calculation abilities had recovered a bit after being sealed for half a year.
Though they were still far from her peak level, she could already predict some of the major events on Earth.
However, there was still a restriction; within half a year, she could only predict one event.
Inside the NOK forum, there were actually quite a few fortune tellers.
Several elders from the Di Wu Clan mingled on the forum too, including descendants of witch sorcerers from the O continent.
But the number of fortune tellers was too few to even form a ranking list.
However, any fortune teller was much sought after.
Only, real fortune tellers would usually not cast fortunes lightly unless they were offered something that truly intrigued them.
After all, divining the mysterious fates normally comes at a great cost.
Ying Zijin didn’t log in with an alternate account but with the founder account, ‘Diviner’, which held a rank even higher than the administrators.
She pondered for a moment, then began to create a post.
[Prediction]
In 202X on X month X day, at coordinates (xx, xx), a great tsunami will occur.
The estimated casualty count is 28,347 people. XX Peninsula and XXX Archipelago are expected to sink.
Such a post immediately caused a stir on the entire forum.
At this moment, the international tycoons lurking in the forum exploded in chatter.
If it had been posted by any other fortune teller, they might not have believed it.
But this was not just anyone.
Otherwise, with hemophilia in her genes, not even being Shanghai City’s foremost socialite would have gained Ying Luwei entry into the Jiang Family.
Ying Yuexuan bowed her head, “Grandma, please don’t talk like that.”
“Xiao Xuan is sensible, my good granddaughter,” Old Madam Ying patted her hand and then looked up, “Where’s Tianlv? Didn’t he come?”
For such a significant event as her surgery, how could Ying Tianlv, her own grandson, not be present?
Zhong Manhua pursed her lips, “Mom, I didn’t mention that Tianlv…”
Because of Ying Zijin, Ying Tianlv had already become estranged from them.
Though Ying Tianlv was still managing the Ying Family’s business at the insistence of Old Master Ying, he refused to see either her or Ying Zhenting.
Ying Yuexuan also pursed her lips, “Grandma, brother might have gone to look for his sister.”
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Ying became furious, “He’s completely bewitched; who is his real sister? To go after an imposter, he’s not clear on this anymore?”
Her words turned three faces pale.
Ying Yuexuan clenched her fingers tightly, her nails digging into her palm.
She was determined to secure her position as the eldest miss of the Ying Family.
“Grandma, please don’t be angry,” Ying Yuexuan tried to soothe Old Madam Ying. “Doctor Nora said that getting angry is bad for your health.”
Old Madam Ying managed to calm down but was still very angry, “Once I recover, I’ll go and give them a piece of my mind myself. How can they still cling to the Ying Family after leaving?”
At that moment, the door to the ward was opened, and Nora came in with a report in her hand, looked worried.
Zhong Manhua stepped forward, “Doctor Nora, any new findings?”
“Yes,” Nora nodded, “After checking thoroughly again, there must be something in Old Madam’s head that requires immediate craniotomy.”
“Something in her head?” Zhong Manhua was startled. “Could it be a tumor?”
“No,” Nora shook her head. “A tumor would have been detected by the machine. Just wait a few more minutes, when Classmate Ying arrives, we will start the operation.”
She had never seen a case like Old Madam Ying’s before and indeed needed Ying Zijin’s help.
After Ying Yuexuan relayed Nora’s words to Old Madam Ying, Old Madam Ying smiled contentedly, “Xiao Xuan, you’ve again helped to seek out a miracle doctor, truly impressive.”
A few minutes later, the door to the ward opened again.
All four members of the Ying Family looked over, and Old Madam Ying even sat up straighter.
The girl removed her hat and slowly lifted her head.
