Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers

Chapter 432: Chapter 433: Master of Acting.

Qi Yue's mind was buzzing like the beads on an abacus, yet her face reflected concern for Liu Zhinan.

"I say, Lord Liu, you mustn't misidentify me... You know I've recently been at odds with that woman from the Wei Family. If you acknowledge me, who knows, you might get dragged into this!"

Liu Zhinan gave a slight smile.

"If I don't acknowledge you, do you have a way to change the current situation?"

He paused, then added, "I've heard that Shen Gong has people watching you, haven't I?"

Hearing this, Qi Yue was alarmed inside, but her lips were more stubborn than a dead duck's.

"I naturally have my methods. Besides, what you're saying isn't right. If Shen Gong's men were following me, wouldn't I know about it?"

However, Liu Zhinan looked at her and smiled, his chin's beard quivering.

"Niece, don't underestimate the Longting Guard; they're no worse than the men under your command... Besides, you've come from afar and are unfamiliar with Fengdu..."

Buzz...

It was as if her mind had been struck, and Qi Yue's face suddenly changed, her hands gathering Divine Power, ready to strike at Liu Zhinan any moment.

"—Do you know who I am?"

"Of course." Liu Zhinan calmly stroked his beard, a look of certainty on his face.

"The late Great General Qi Yunzhang's daughter from Nanyue, Qi Yue— and I also know that your men are all from the Black Feather Guard."

Qi Yue's hands tightened even more.

"How did you find out? How long have you known? That day in the bookshop, you had already recognized me, hadn't you?"

"My child, are you this wary even towards your uncle?" Liu Zhinan dismissively waved his hand, "Don't be nervous, I only found out not long ago."

"What?" Qi Yue twitched the corners of her lips, ready to draw her sword!

"When did you find out?"

"Don't be nervous, make yourself comfortable," Liu Zhinan, his face wrinkled, smiled like the big bad wolf from Little Red Riding Hood, "I'll explain it slowly."

"What do I have to be nervous about? Am I supposed to be afraid of you?" Qi Yue huffed, though she relaxed a bit.

Despite Liu Zhinan's pleasant demeanor, she had no intention of trusting him.

It was too suspicious.

She began to suspect that perhaps the Nanyue Kingdom saw her capabilities and devised this strategy to win her over!

After reaping the benefits, they might totally eradicate her!

At this thought, she felt a chill in her mind, and couldn't help but remember Qingzhu's words.

The original owner's mother had a clear and respectable background, with a known name. It was impossible for her to be related to the Liu Family in front of her.

Thus, she became even more certain that Liu Zhinan must have ulterior motives.

But on second thought, given the current situation, acknowledging Liu Zhinan as her uncle might not be a bad move.

It could be just the opportunity to stir things up in Fengdu.
