Chapter 347: Chapter 347: If Not for His Inheritance, Then What?

"The moment I laid eyes on Quan Sicheng, I knew he was useless. Without someone setting up a ladder to heaven for him, he’s nothing but trash that will forever linger at the bottom."

Shi Yaoguang’s choice of words was nothing if not sharp.

Shi Yiqing considered herself and Quan Sicheng one and the same, so to hear Shi Yaoguang label Quan Sicheng as trash was no different from insulting her directly.

She flared up immediately, "Shi Yaoguang!"

"You’re just sour because you can’t have the grapes!"

"Who doesn’t know that you fell for Brother Sicheng at first sight? Despite Brother Sicheng clearly not liking you, you still took pride in the marriage contract. If it weren’t for me persuading him, he wouldn’t even spare you a second glance!"

Shi Yiqing couldn’t hold back and revealed her true thoughts.

Shi Yaoguang pondered, "If I’m not misunderstanding your words... you mean to say that Quan Sicheng was unwilling to see me, and it was you who deliberately made him meet me, and even cajoled me about it?"

Since it was all out in the open, Shi Yiqing didn’t intend to continue hiding it and nodded firmly, "That’s right!"

Shi Yaoguang shook her head, "tutting," "So it seems you planned to harm me from the start!"

She spoke with added fierceness, "You knew full well he didn’t like me, yet you deliberately let him interact with me, advising him to tolerate me on one hand, while on the other, telling me he had a good impression of me. You said the reason for his coldness was just that he wasn’t used to interacting with me."

"I treated you as a genuine sister, so I believed your lies, thinking that what you said was true... yet in reality, you had deceived me."

"You colluded with him on purpose, wanting to teach me a lesson. But what you didn’t expect was that I’d come to my senses, give up on that scum and choose to be with Sanye instead."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yiqing’s heart sank.

She had a bad feeling.

Shi Yaoguang had turned the conversation back around.

According to her, there was no doubt she truly was Shi Yaoguang.

The only reason for her change in personality was the shock she had experienced.

This was not what Shi Yiqing wanted.

Thinking this, her gaze fell upon Shi Yaoguang’s porcelain-white skin.

That’s it!

Shi Yiqing solemnly declared, "My sister doesn’t look anything like you at all. Those who have seen her before should remember! My sister has always lived in the countryside; her skin is nowhere near as good as yours!"

"Heh," Shi Yaoguang chuckled lightly, "Just because my skin is better than yours, you’re jealous enough to deny my identity?"

"I’m not!"

Shi Yiqing spoke solemnly, "My denial of your identity isn’t out of jealousy! You’re simply not my sister, and I have no need to fabricate any lies!"

As she spoke, she turned to the others, "Do you all still remember what my sister looked like last semester? Tell me, could her skin have possibly changed from what it was like before to what it is now, so suddenly?"

She was quite sure, "Clearly, she has usurped my sister’s identity to undergo such a drastic transformation!"

After speaking, she looked confidently at the group, waiting for their agreement.

But unexpectedly.

Everyone exchanged glances, avoiding looking at her.

Shi Yiqing was puzzled.

Hadn’t she made herself clear enough?

The significant change in Shi Yaoguang was definitely problematic!

Just as she was confused, she heard Shi Yaoguang say, "Even if you’re eager to smear my name, you shouldn’t ignore the facts."

Shi Yiqing was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Shi Yaoguang countered, "Aren’t you aware that I’ve started a cosmetic company?"

Having been reminded of this, Shi Yiqing finally recalled something.

Then, she showed an expression of disbelief.

Shi Yaoguang raised an eyebrow and looked at her with a smile, "You guessed right, my skin is as good as it is all thanks to the cosmetics."

"You’re talking nonsense, I don’t believe it!" Shi Yiqing said sharply, her voice breaking.

Shi Yaoguang shrugged, "Shiyuan Cosmetics has never paid for fake reviews, you can ask the consumers about the results yourself."

As her words fell, someone timidly raised their hand, "I... I can vouch for that."

"You can vouch? On what grounds can you vouch?"

Shi Yiqing’s face turned ugly, "You can’t possibly think this woman, who married Quan Sanye, replaced my sister’s identity, and now find her stinky feet fragrant, do you?"

The girl who spoke turned pale when Shi Yiqing accused her of groveling.

"You... Don’t talk nonsense!"

"I’m talking nonsense?"

Shi Yiqing sneered, "Do I need to talk nonsense?"

She wore a look of disdain, "Your bootlicking is all too apparent!"

"I... I’m not..." the girl tried to defend herself, "Everything I said is true, my skin was not very good before, and it only improved after using the skincare products launched by Shiyuan Cosmetics."

After speaking, the girl showed everyone her delicate, flawless skin.

After seeing it, the onlookers began asking her which of the cosmetics she sold was.

Shi Yiqing had not anticipated that her platform for questioning Shi Yaoguang would turn into a "product demonstration" for Shiyuan Cosmetics, her nose nearly crooked with anger.

Shi Yaoguang looked at her, shrugged, and said with a smile, "See, without your suspicion, everyone can prove my innocence, what else can you accuse me of now?"

"You wouldn’t think that even my face is fake, would you? Do I need to prove that I haven’t had plastic surgery?"

Shi Yiqing’s face turned dark, "Don’t think that by saying that, I will stop suspecting you."

"My sister is nothing like you. Your personalities are worlds apart, you can’t be her! I didn’t notice it before, but now that I have spotted the problem, I can’t pretend to be oblivious! Don’t think you can talk your way out of this!"

Shi Yaoguang spread her hands, "I’ve said all there is to say, if you’re unwilling to believe, there’s nothing I can do, but... I’ll offer you a friendly warning."

"Don’t play with fire too much, be careful you might not be able to end what you start."

Shi Yiqing’s face was grim, "I don’t need your warning! Don’t think I don’t know what you’re after!"

She knew she could no longer pick flaws in her appearance, so she aimed her spearhead at the Quan family.

The Quan family was now half of Shi Yaoguang’s world.

From this angle, it would be quite convenient to resolve.

Thinking this, Shi Yiqing, with an air of moral justification, said, "You deliberately took over my sister’s identity just to marry Quan Sanye! You knew about Quan Sanye’s poor health, yet insisted on marrying him, everyone knows what for!"

"Everyone knows?" Shi Yaoguang clicked her tongue twice, "Then do tell, what’s it for?"

"You’re just after the money, aren’t you?" Shi Yiqing said, with a look of scorn, "You married Quan Sanye just so that when he dies, you can take over his inheritance!"

"Inheritance?" Shi Yaoguang shook her head, "You’re mistaken."

Shi Yiqing was incredulous, "Don’t try to wriggle out of it! With Sanye’s serious illness, if you’re not after his inheritance, what are you after?"

"What am I after?" Shi Yaoguang curved her lips, "Of course..."
