Chapter 162 Key Plot Points
System: "Ding, Qin Yan's favorability has increased by 10, and her current favorability is 70."
Qiao Xiao sat quietly in the spacious and comfortable passenger seat, glancing occasionally at Qin Yan, who was focused on driving.
Qin Yan sat upright in the driver's seat, his hands firmly gripping the steering wheel. His deep eyes were fixed on the road ahead, and sunlight streamed through the car window, illuminating his handsome profile and outlining a captivating silhouette.
In the back seat lay Lin Zhengqi, bound hand and foot and gagged. He could only helplessly twist his body in an attempt to break free, but all his efforts were in vain.
At this moment, Qiao Xiao turned to Qin Yan and said, "A grand gathering will be held next week, and all the prominent figures in the city will be invited to attend. As the head of the Lin family, Lin Feng will certainly not be absent from such an important occasion."
As she spoke, she pulled out an exquisite invitation she had just taken from Lin Zhengqi from her pocket and continued, "This invitation clearly states that we can bring one female companion. So, we can definitely take this opportunity to get closer to Lin Feng. However... I haven't yet come up with a comprehensive plan on what to do next."
After listening to Qiao Xiao's words, Qin Yan nodded slightly in agreement. He calmly replied, "Yes, I'll handle the follow-up arrangements."
The car then slowly drove onto a quiet and secluded path, eventually stopping in front of a very hidden abandoned warehouse.
The two men worked together to drag Lin Zhengqi out of the car and tied him securely to a thick pillar inside the warehouse. Only after confirming that Lin Zhengqi could not escape did they leave the area and immediately begin their intense planning work.
That night, they had prepared in advance imitation leather masks purchased online and a set of seemingly expensive imitation high-end suits.
Once they passed the checkpoint, they quickly found a secluded corner to remove their disguises. After all, if they were spotted by Lin Zhengqi's acquaintances, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At this moment, their primary task was to keep a low profile and search for Lin Feng's whereabouts. However, although Qin Yan had concealed part of his face with makeup, his innate charm was still hard to hide.
Many beautiful and charming heiresses gathered around him, making Qiao Xiao, seeing the dense crowd surrounding Qin Yan, decide to act alone.
Watching Qiao Xiao's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Qin Yan was immediately plunged into a sense of separation anxiety. His heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, as if a force was tightly gripping his soul, like being trapped in a glass bottle that could never be filled, the air inside the bottle was completely sucked out, and a feeling of suffocation suddenly struck him.
"Qin Yan?" He caught a familiar call, and then a little girl, dressed in a gorgeous dress inlaid with pink gemstones, who looked like an exquisitely sculpted porcelain doll, gracefully entered everyone's sight.
At that moment, Qiao Xiao suddenly heard the system's prompting voice: "A key plot point has been activated. The core character—Song Qingyu, Qin Yan's fiancée—has officially made her debut."
Qiao Xiao: "Hmm, it seems they've already met. Tsk, now it'll be even harder to improve their favorability, but the general direction of the plot hasn't been affected."
At the same time, with Song Qingyu's appearance, the young ladies who had been surrounding Qin Yan all consciously retreated and left one by one.
Faced with Qin Yan's indifferent and coldly scrutinizing gaze, Song Qingyu couldn't help but think to herself, "What kind of airs is he putting on?"
Although Qin Yan couldn't recall her name or any details, he suspected that his relationship with this girl was unusual. Moreover, her noble family background undoubtedly reflected that his own status was also far from simple.
"What's wrong with you? Even if you used to ignore people, you would never embarrass me in front of so many people," Song Qingyu said irritably. "Where have you been these past few days? Father is very worried about you."
Qin Yan: "Where is your father?"
Song Qingyu frowned, dissatisfied with Qin Yan's indifferent attitude, but still replied, "Dad is chatting with some elders over there. Of course he has to come to this occasion."
Qin Yan nodded, but his eyes were searching for Qiao Xiao's figure everywhere.
Song Qingyu followed his gaze and sneered, "Are you looking for a woman?"
Qin Yan withdrew his gaze and looked at Song Qingyu: "It's none of your business."
Song Qingyu: "None of my business? Don't forget you're still my fiancé."
Qin Yan: "What?" The situation he least wanted to imagine had occurred.
Seeing Qin Yan's pupils shrink, Song Qingyu looked at him warily, "What? You've fallen for another woman? Don't worry, our marriage is based on economic interests, and we don't need to abide by any social morality. I won't interfere in that regard."
He seemed to agree with Song Qingyu's idea. Now that she had regained her memories, it was inseparable from her, which would reduce the chances of Qiao Xiao coming into contact with danger. It was a win-win situation.
"Long time no see, Mr. Song." A chilling voice came from behind. Qin Yan didn't even need to turn around to know that it was Lin Feng. He carefully observed him through the reflection in the mirror on the opposite wall.
They found that Lin Feng looked completely unchanged, just ordinary, and there was no sign of any physical disability.
Qin Yan muttered to himself, "What a good actor." His eyes were filled with hatred, wishing he could tear Lin Feng to pieces immediately.
However, before Qin Yan could inform Qiao Xiao, Lin Feng unexpectedly saw Qin Yan first.
The moment Lin Feng saw Qin Yan, he pretended to be calm. Song Zhi also looked in the same direction and was pleasantly surprised to find Qin Yan, whom he hadn't been able to contact for a long time.
A smile immediately bloomed on Song Zhi's face. He slowly walked towards Qin Yan, his tone filled with surprise: "My goodness, Qin Yan, it's been so long! Come, let me introduce you. This is Lin Feng, the president of the Lin Group. He's planning to open a new branch nearby and has come to us specifically to seek cooperation."
Song Zhi's image is more like a green bamboo that has been baptized by time, with an outstanding temperament, like a pearl left behind by heaven. He is more like an educator than an entrepreneur. Qin Yan's mood improved a lot the moment he met him.
Qin Yan goes without saying; he is a perfect figure educated in the Chinese elite. Even with amnesia, his every move exudes elegance and gentlemanliness, like gold that has been deposited in the sand, destined to be discovered.
The moment Lin Feng saw Qin Yan, his pupils contracted sharply. A sharp pain emanated from within his body, triggering uncontrollable memories of his mutilated body. His legs trembled violently, as if they had withered.
