Fantasy: The Second Miss Said She Was Ordinary

Chapter 426 Acting in a play

"Come closer," Qin Lie beckoned to An Ya with his finger.

Anya scoffed. "Heh, so what if she's proud? She's still being manipulated by her."

She leaned closer smugly, wanting to see how this tall and aloof man would submit to her.

The next moment, her neck was suddenly grabbed by a large, cold hand!

A bloodthirsty glint flashed in the man's eyes.

"Tell me those secrets, or I'll kill you."

Anya's eyes are enlarged.

what happened?

This isn't how the story unfolded in her mind!

Qin Lie had a thousand ways to torture people, but he didn't even have time to use one on Anya before he heard her scream, "I'll talk, I'll talk, I'll tell you everything!"

Not only did she recount how she had been imprisoned by Wahaha, which led to her psychological distortion, but she also poured out everything she had seen and heard in the secret realm of the Holy Light Temple.

Qin Lie frowned. He didn't care about the secret realm; he only cared about one fact: "Are you the mother of the Vadashi Divine Envoy?"

Anya's eyes darted around. She wasn't her biological mother; she was just a stepmother. But how she wished she could say the word "yes."

"Tell the truth." Qin Lie lowered his head, staring at her coldly.

No one knew that beneath his cool, icy exterior lay a heart churning with emotions as turbulent as magma.

Mingming, that young man with the rooster-like haircut was calling him "Daddy" just yesterday.

Today, this strange woman in front of him told him that she was that brat's mother.

And Wahaha, one of the twenty-four high-level divine messengers, is that brat's biological father!

If he has a father, why call him "father"?

Unlike some men who readily want to be someone's father, is he such a cheap existence?

He couldn't accept this fact unless that young man with the rooster-like hair was an imposter, a fake Vadashi!

Anya dared not look him in the eye, muttering, "Watashi is my son, no one can take him away, no one can!"

"Who's stealing it?"

"A shameless beauty..." Anya's mutterings suddenly stopped. She realized what she had said and glared fiercely at Qin Lie: "No one! That's my son! No one can take him away!"

Looking at her protective manner, like a mother hen guarding her chicks, Qin Lie had a bold guess in his mind.

It's a bit far-fetched, but if this guess is confirmed, then... everything will make sense.

He pointed out incisively: "Wadasi is not your son."

Anya was stunned for a moment, then, as if a sore spot had been touched, she lunged at Qin Lie frantically: "My Dada is of course my son! Even if he's a fake son, he's still my son!"

However, her strength was completely suppressed by Qin Lie. At this moment, Qin Lie held her head with one finger, and she could only flail around in place, with zero damage value.

After a struggle, Anya was exhausted and panting heavily, collapsing onto the ground in a fit of despair.

She burst into tears: "So what if he's just a fake son? Dada understands me and respects me more than my own son. When he smiles, he's exactly the same as when he was a child. He's my son, and no one can take him away!"

"Even if he might kill your own son, you wouldn't resent it?"

"Resentment? Why should I resent it? He shouldn't have been born in the first place!"

"Since I've come into this world, I'll love him properly. But what about him? Has he ever loved me even a little bit? He's as disgusting as his father. Even if he was killed by his fake son, he still deserves to die! The Holy Light Temple is a bunch of bastards who are worse than pigs and dogs; they all deserve to die!"

Qin Lie felt a pang of sorrow as he looked at her frantic state.

This woman, like him, is a pitiful person.

However, her fake son may very well be her real son.

He looked at Anya and said, "Act out a scene with me, and I'll let you go."

"What play?" Anya asked, stunned.

Qin Lie looked towards the direction of the Haijiao branch hall, which, of course, was a play that would allow him to find his child and wife.

He wasn't someone who was easily moved. He had been wandering for over a year, and even though countless people died before his eyes, his heart remained as still as stagnant water.

But last night, first the young man with the rooster-like haircut, then the woman by the sea, both easily stirred his heart.

He didn't believe that he had absolutely no connection with these two people before he lost his memory.

Recalling the woman's clear eyes from last night, he felt another pang of heartache.

It seems that he is not the only one suffering from amnesia.

Qin Youyou kept tracking her father's movements in her mind.

Seeing him wandering around the bustling city, finally stopping in front of a restaurant, his eyes lit up as he looked at his mother: "Mom, it's noon, time for lunch! Come on, it's my treat, let's go eat some of the local specialties of Cape City."

"Oh?" Wei Jin's eyes lit up.

She was quite disappointed that she didn't get to eat that handsome guy last night. Sure enough, the best prey always runs away quickly.

The man was as slippery as a fish; she only said one sentence before he ran away. Oh well, she had gone hungry all night for nothing.

Upon hearing her daughter say it was lunchtime, she could no longer contain herself and immediately ran outside.

As a divine messenger, Qin Youyou could not rashly and ostentatiously go out. Therefore, she activated the Formless Ring, transformed into an ordinary appearance, and followed her mother out through a side door of the Holy Light Temple.

This is the largest restaurant in Cape City.

Seafood is a specialty here, with all kinds of fish and shrimp available. Although there are many people in this city who practice fasting, they often can't resist breaking their vows when faced with the temptation of delicious food.

If you're willing to spend the money, you can even get your hands on highly nutritious meats from sacred sea beasts.

Guided by the light in her mind, Qin Youyou led Wei Jin to this restaurant.

Neither of them were particular about etiquette, and they planned to sit down directly in the bustling lobby.

Wei Jin's appearance was so outstanding that as soon as she entered the door, it caused a series of gasps: "So beautiful!"

"Is such a stunning beauty a girl from our Cape City?"

"Haha, stop dreaming. If she really is a girl from Cape City, how could I have never seen or heard of her before? She's probably just a passerby."

Qin Lie, who was sitting in the corner, naturally saw Wei Jin as well, and his pupils shrank.

During the day, her beauty was even more captivating than the night before; her clear, bright eyes on her hibiscus-like face were mesmerizing.

The sound of his chest pounding violently came again.

Feeling the woman's gaze sweep over him, he didn't even dare to meet her eyes, so he quickly looked away and lowered his head, pretending to eat.

With a swift movement of his fingertips, he wrote a message: "Target spotted, come quickly."

Anya received Qin Lie's message while she was outside. Overjoyed, she quickly combed her hair, took out a small mirror to put on makeup, bought a new set of clothes with a silver coin, and went to find Qin Lie dressed up.

She knew she was very beautiful, otherwise she wouldn't have been kidnapped by Wahaha. Therefore, even before entering the grand restaurant, she already guessed that after dressing up, she would definitely attract everyone's attention and admiration.
