Chapter 46: Suspicion
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It had been two months since Jiang Se’s rebirth. Judging from the information she heard when she was in the “Rescue Mission” cast, “Feng Nan” had a peculiar identity.
The worker came to activate her internet connection shortly after her phone call. Jiang Se placed her luggage in her room, went to the business hall to sign her tenancy agreement, and paid the stipulated amount. The worker came around 6 p.m.
After activating her internet connection, the man in the uniform helped Jiang Se connect her computer to the internet. After instructing her to set her own password and testing the connection by opening a random page, the worker put his tools away.
“It’s done, but your computer is quite old, and it’s been a while since it was last switched on. That’s why it’s sluggish.”
Jiang Se naturally would not have been picky about this. After the worker left, she took her keys and went out as well.
There was a supermarket in the neighborhood. Since she had just moved into the unit, she needed to buy soap, detergent, and other household items for herself.
Although there was a bed in her rented room, she also had to buy her own sheets and pillow.
Jiang Se felt hesitant about spending her money when she imagined her dwindling account balance. She bought some condiments and ingredients to cook in her own unit.
It was almost eight o’clock when she returned home with bulging bags. She sorted out her groceries before sitting down before the computer.
She was in no hurry to visit any specific website. Instead, she began pondering about “Feng Nan’s” identity.
Being reborn as Jiang Se had come as a sudden shock to her. With the Du family’s condition back then, she dared not let the others notice anything different about her. She had survived her days in that house carefully.
She had guessed that the person within “Feng Nan’s” body was not the original Jiang Se. However, after her rebirth, “Feng Nan” did not act out of place or call the Du family. For a 17-year-old girl, she was too calm which was odd.
Moreover, nobody knew how the Feng family was better than Jiang Se.
She accidentally overheard Zhang Jingan and Liu Ye’s conversation when she was with the “Rescue Mission” cast back then. From the information she could glean, Jiang Se inferred that this “Feng Nan” might have gotten close with the Jianghua Group heir just as the Feng family arranged. She was convinced that they were intimate as well.
If her guesses were right, then “Feng Nan” was a tactful character. She had somehow worked her influence on Pei Yi’s side and gotten her hands on a large batch of firearms.
This person was capable of being associated with the heir of the Zhao family’s group while investing in the entertainment industry under the Feng family’s nose. The methods employed by this person was not something the original 17-year-old “Jiang Se” could have managed. 1
In other words, the current “Feng Nan” might not be the actual Jiang Se at all.
She calmed her thoughts and searched for Zhongnan Industries.
The Feng family’s business ventures were completely controlled by the family members since the company was not public.
When the results of her search returned on the browser, she got the information about the Feng family’s hotel in Hong Kong. There was also some basic information there and the occasional news article about the younger members of the Feng family. However, she could not find anything more about “Feng Nan”.
This was extremely abnormal!
Although the Fengs were famous in Hong Kong, they were not considered a big name in the imperial capital. If “Feng Nan” had acted strangely, it should have been impossible for her to not leave any trace.
She searched for information about the Jianghua Group. This time, she got more results. Besides the latest activities of the Zhao family, most of the hottest news were about the Jianghua Group heir, Zhao Junhan, dating the young lady of the Feng family!
The paparazzi managed to take several photos, and Jiang Se could recognize the back of the person even if she had turned to ashes!
The Jianghua Group must have been eager to make the marriage between the Zhaos and the Fengs a success. Therefore, they did not pay the media to retract these photos.
However, it was thanks to these photos that Jiang Se was able to confirm “Feng Nan’s” existence.
She looked at the time stamp. The news had come out in early July.
Other people might not have known it, but she was clearly aware that something had happened to her at that time. Since something had happened to her, who was the person with whom Zhao Junhan went on a date?
The person did a good job of hiding her true self and had everyone else fooled. Since she continued to keep in touch with Zhao Junhan after her incident, this meant that this person had a certain understanding of her.
If she could keep her cool and not reveal her own intentions, she must have been someone educated or experienced.
She crossed out the possibility of that person being the original Jiang Se. She began thinking about the possible identity of this person who seemed to be familiar with her.
She had kept a low profile throughout her life. She had good friends, but most of them were daughters of rich families or debutantes of similar social standing such as herself. These people shared the same characteristics as Feng Nan. They were born into rich families and frowned upon the entertainment industry.
However, “Feng Nan” chose to work with the Jianghua Group after being reborn and invested in Zhang Jingan’s new film in the entertainment industry. By the looks of things, she was not making a small move. She even leveraged on her relationship with Pei Yi. This meant that she was determined on getting involved in this industry.
Such actions were completely the opposite of what the people she knew would do.
She went through the possibilities in her mind carefully. However, she could not remember meeting anyone from the entertainment industry before. She spent a long time thinking and could not think of any names. All she could do now was to forcibly suppress her suspicions for now.
No matter what, this person was capable of fooling the Feng family into not noticing anything unusual about her. Also, she used her identity as “Feng Nan” to dabble in the entertainment industry the moment she was reborn. She must have had something to do with the entertainment industry even before she was reborn.
She was not in a good mood right now. There were many news articles about the Zhao family’s latest activities aside from information about Zhao Junhan and the young Miss Feng’s fate. She opened Twitter and searched for Zhao Junhan’s name. His profile should have stated that he was a shareholder of the Jianghua Group. However, it was now changed to the chairman of the imperial capital’s Changhe Films Limited.
Jiang Se scrolled through Zhao Junhan’s activities. After getting past the horde of meaningless tweets, the general impression she got was that he was interested in investing in the entertainment industry.
Before her rebirth, Jiang Se had a meal with this heir of the Jianghua Group. Although they did not know each other well back then, since they knew that their families were interested in working together, they could tell that there was the possibility of their families being allied by their marriage in the future. Therefore, Zhao Junhan did not hide some things from her.
Back then, he never showed any inclination or liking toward the entertainment industry.
She licked her lips and rested her chin on her hand. The change in Zhao Junhan must have been connected to the appearance of this “Feng Nan”.
After scrolling through the search results, she returned to the Twitter homepage. Her sharp eyes noticed something about Zhao Rang.
When she saw the familiar name, she expanded the thread. The content of the tweet was Zhao Rang’s new film, “The 99th Love Letter”.
As a famous director, Zhao Rang attracted the attention of the media the moment he began filming. Now that the shooting was almost completed, the company was naturally preparing to publicize it.
She searched for “The 99th Love Letter” and was greeted by Cui Xing’s profile.
His latest tweet was related to “The 99th Love Letter”, and it was published 15 minutes ago.
