The Fake Heiress's Inner Thoughts Were Heard by Her Entire Family

Chapter 16

Meanwhile, Jing Zejun and Shen Xi had been chatting for a while and were starting to worry since Jing Yi hadn't returned yet.

Just as they were about to get up and check on her, they saw Jing Yi's figure approaching from a distance.

Jing Yi walked over, holding some clothes in her hands, with an unpleasant expression on her face.

[Those three crows turned into spirits, just babbling nonsense!]

Jing Zejun, looking concerned, tentatively asked, "Why were you gone for so long?"

"I ran into those three people from the L Family, which held me up for a bit."

L Family? Who were they?

Jing Zejun's expression showed a hint of confusion.

Shen Xi, however, quickly caught on, "You mean those girls called Lucy or something?"

"Exactly those!"

Jing Zejun furrowed her brow slightly, also remembering the three socialites who had come to greet them earlier. "Did they give you a hard time?"

Jing Yi shook her head, "As if they'd dare." She handed the clothes to Jing Zejun and Shen Xi.

[They wouldn't dare trouble me to my face, they only dare to hide in corners and talk behind my back. I don't know what era they think this is, those three still have such small minds, treating actors like they're beneath them! I didn't handle it well this time, but next time I'll definitely give them a piece of my mind!]

Those three probably didn't expect that hiding in the parking lot to gossip would still get them overheard...

After being scolded by Jing Yi, not only were they upset, but they also had to worry about whether Jing Yi would tell Jing Zejun about the incident.

This was the newly found Jing family's youngest daughter, and now they had thoroughly offended her.

Jing Zejun held the clothes, staring blankly at Jing Yi.

Jing Yi noticed and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" Jing Zejun pressed her lips into a smile and gently ruffled her hair.

"Nothing, I just think it's wonderful to have a little sister."

Regarding suddenly becoming the youngest in the family, Jing Yi had something to say.

"...I'm only a month younger than you."

Jing Zejun's lips curled into a gentle smile. Even if it was just a month, she was still the older sister.

...

"Well, Yiyi, I'm off now. Bye-bye!" Shen Xi sat in the sedan, rolling down the window to wave at Jing Yi.

"Mm, take care."

After seeing Shen Xi off, Jing Yi and the others also prepared to leave by car.

Jing Beicheng and Jing Zeyou were still discussing some matters, while Jing Zejun accompanied Lin Ruiqing to sit in the living room. Jing Zeqian lazily followed them.

Jing Yi yawned, looking exhausted.

Jing Zeqian glanced up and saw Jing Yi's unladylike behavior, his tone filled with disdain, "You're really wasting that evening gown. You don't look like a princess at all."

Jing Yi tiredly lay down on the sofa, "I'm not a princess to begin with..."

[I was wrong, I shouldn't have been interested in the banquet...]

Jing Zeqian's tone was somewhat exasperated: "No ambition!"

Jing Yi didn't care at all, and she didn't have the energy to bicker with Jing Zeqian anymore.

[Fine, I have no ambition. You can be the princess, okay?]

Jing Zeqian: ...

Jing Zejun lowered her head to stifle a laugh, while Lin Ruiqing's lips also curled up uncontrollably.

Jing Beicheng and Jing Zeyou seemed to have finished their discussion and walked over. Jing Yi reluctantly got up, ready to go upstairs and rest.

"There's one more thing..."

Jing Yi looked up at Jing Zeyou, her eyes gradually widening.

[At this hour, there's still something?!]

Jing Zeyou cleared his throat, "It'll only take a few minutes." Jing Yi lazily sat back down on the sofa.

"I've arranged a physical examination for Yiyi and Junjun the day after tomorrow."

Jing Yi was a bit confused.

[Physical examination? Why suddenly a physical?]

Jing Zeyou added, "Our family has annual check-ups. Since Junjun and Yiyi just came back, I thought it would be good to have a check-up first."

Of course, the ultimate purpose of this check-up was for Jing Yi.

He wanted to find out if the recent strange occurrences were due to a problem with Jing Yi's body or some other reason.

Half a month ago, Jing Zeyou had visited a private hospital owned by Hengjing.

"What do you mean? You're asking if it's possible to hear other people's inner thoughts? Is it ventriloquism?"

Jing Zeyou's doctor friend found it somewhat amusing and even wondered if his friend had become confused from overworking.

Jing Zeyou didn't know how to describe it. If he was too direct, it might threaten Jing Yi's peaceful life, but he did want to know if there was something wrong with Jing Yi's body that was causing them to hear her thoughts.

"It's not ventriloquism? Then it's very likely that there's something wrong with your body. Come, let me examine you!"

Then, Jing Zeyou was dragged off by his friend for an examination.

Jing Zeyou felt a bit helpless. If he was the only one hearing it, it would definitely be his problem, but besides him, everyone in the family could hear it.

However, it did remind Jing Zeyou that he could have Jing Yi undergo a full body examination.

Worried that Jing Yi might overthink it, Jing Zeyou included Jing Zejun in the plan.

But Jing Yi didn't suspect anything. Instead, she thought of something else.

[A physical examination? This is perfect timing!]

The others discreetly glanced at Jing Yi as she sat up, somewhat puzzled.

Due to Jing Zejun being lost since childhood, Lin Ruiqing's health had never been very good. Although the Jing family's wealth allowed them to constantly provide treatment for Lin Ruiqing, sometimes illnesses can come suddenly and unexpectedly.

In the original story, during the time when Jing Zejun was found, Lin Ruiqing fell ill. It was then discovered that her condition had suddenly worsened. Even with the Jing family's access to the world's top medical resources, they were only able to extend Lin Ruiqing's life by a few years.

This was something deeply buried in Jing Yi's heart, and she had been looking for an opportunity to address this hidden danger.

So she didn't even notice how clumsy Jing Zeyou's excuse was, instead thinking it was a perfect opportunity.

"Uncle, Auntie, let's all go for the check-up together! Big brother should come too!"

The only one left out, Jing Zeqian: ...

Lin Ruiqing looked surprised, not understanding why Jing Yi would mention her.

"Yiyi, your uncle and I just had a check-up a few months ago..."

Lin Ruiqing felt there was no need for her to have another check-up, given that she had just had one a few months prior.

But Jing Yi was particularly insistent, "Auntie, let's all go together. We're all going to have check-ups anyway, it'll save the hospital some trouble."

[The earlier we check, the earlier we can find out! And we can check big brother's health too! We can't let it drag on!]

Jing Zeyou raised an eyebrow, after all, he knew about her future life.

"What do you think, big brother?" Jing Yi's beautiful almond eyes were full of expectation.

Jing Zeyou's lips curled into a slight smile as he nodded.

Lin Ruiqing didn't insist either. After all, it was just a check-up, not some big request.

Jing Yi's expression relaxed considerably, feeling like a major concern in her heart was finally going to be resolved. "Alright then, can I go rest now?"

Jing Zeyou looked at the eager Jing Yi with amusement and nodded, "Mm."

Just as Jing Yi was about to get up and return to her room to rest, Jing Zeqian's cold voice came through.

"Is that so? I think you all seem to have forgotten something, haven't you?"

Jing Zeqian sat with his arms crossed on the sofa, looking extremely displeased.
