Hidden identities of the AI Heiress
Chapter 744 - Chapter 744 Chapter 744 Discovered by Lady Qin

Chapter 744: Chapter 744: Discovered by Lady Qin Chapter 744: Chapter 744: Discovered by Lady Qin Qiao Yun told them, “Very good.”

“Oh, that’s good.”

Lu Rui was thinking about how to ask, when he suddenly remembered something. When Qiaoqiao just came back, they didn’t believe she could get admitted to Shengyang High School.

The couple even conspired on how to use their financial power to get Qiaoqiao into Shengyang.

Lu Rui’s facial muscles twitched slightly, and he inexplicably felt a sting on his face. What was that about?

Qiao Yun noticed the oddities of her parents and said directly, “If you want to ask something, just ask.”

Su Mian didn’t have so many concerns and asked directly, “Your dad and I heard the speech of the honorary headmaster of your school, and we just thought that the voice sounded a lot like yours.”

Qiao Yun came to a sudden realization; so that was the reason. She didn’t think it was a big deal. They hadn’t asked before, but now that they had, Qiao Yun simply opened her mouth and said, “Yes, it’s me. The college entrance exam is approaching, so I sent them my blessings.”

Su Mian took a deep breath, nearly suffocating herself. True to form, her Qiaoqiao always caught her off guard!

She asked in a daze, “It really was you?”

“Mm,” Qiao Yun nodded in affirmation.

Su Mian hissed, “No wonder you wanted to go to Shengyang to study from the start; turns out it’s your own school!”

Qiao Yun explained, “It belonged to Grandpa; now it’s mine.”

Lu Rui had actually come close to the truth before, when he found out Qiaoqiao’s grandfather was Qiao An.

He later realized that Qiao An was a pen name, and Qiao Ansheng was his real name.

And the person who founded Shengyang High School was indeed named Qiao Ansheng.

He had thought it was just a coincidence and didn’t take it to heart.

Lu Rui was full of regret; he had been so close to the truth.

“Qiaoqiao, are you tired?” Lu Rui looked at Qiao Yun with a very complex gaze.

Qiao Yun was stunned, then replied with her usual calm voice, “Not tired.”

Lu Rui chuckled dismissively, knowing that the tiredness he referred to was different from what Qiaoqiao meant.

Su Mian knew Lu Rui all too well. She immediately grasped the implication in his words and felt her buoyant heart sink.

Qiao Yun, sensing that the atmosphere was a bit off, didn’t understand why. Was it just because of another layer added to her identity that her family felt uneasy?

Qiao Yun didn’t ask; she just looked at them with clear eyes,

This docile appearance made Su Mian’s heart melt with tenderness, and her affection deepened.

Su Mian stood up, took Qiao Yun’s hand, and pulled her to sit beside her, her eyes filled with compassion.

“Qiaoqiao…”

As soon as she spoke, her voice was choked. “All these years, have you been tired on your own?”

Qiao Yun opened her mouth and then shook her head, “Not tired, I had Pei Ya.”

Su Mian’s surge of pity quickly receded, “Hehe… Mr. Pei has been quite busy, then.”

Qiao Yun’s voice was light, “Not busy, I pay him, and he likes money.”

Su Mian: “…” Alright, the topic was dead.

Qiao Yun wasn’t lying. Pei Ya might not have shown it, but he was actually quite a money-grubber. Otherwise, he wouldn’t nag every time she wanted to give a gift, clearly because it pained him to see money spent.

However, when it came to matters related to Professor Qiao, Pei Ya was willing to spend like water.

Lu Rui exclaimed, “I really didn’t expect Director Pei to be a money-grubber. He must have had a hard life before.”

Qiao Yun whispered, “Not really hard, I guess.”

Pei Ya had once casually mentioned to her that his original family was very wealthy…

Su Mian smiled, “My goodness, I never would have guessed you were also a headmaster. If your classmates knew about this, they’d certainly be shocked to death.”

Qiao Yun corrected, “Just the honorary headmaster.”

“It’s all the same.”

After the initial concern was gone, Su Mian felt quite happy.

How smart her beloved daughter was, though it was a pity that this matter couldn’t be bragged about.

They were very aware that Qiao Yun’s identity should not be disclosed, or it would bring her a lot of trouble.

After Qiao Yun went upstairs to rest, Lu Rui half-jokingly told Su Mian, “If one day Qiaoqiao tells me she is MR.Q, I won’t even panic.”

“Keep dreaming,” Su Mian chuckled. If that day really came, their home would surely quake.

Late in the day, Qiao Yun finally saw the family group chat messages, and only then she understood that her identity was revealed because of an audio clip.

This was something Qiao Yun hadn’t expected; they were able to recognize it was her from just an audio clip, despite the fact that mechanical processing could distort a person’s voice.

Unless someone paid close attention to her, they normally wouldn’t associate a voice with her just like that.

Thinking this, Qiao Yun pursed her lips and felt once more the importance her family placed on her.

When Qiao Yun scrolled down the chat history, she saw the remark about backdoor admissions that Lu Shiran had made and emotionlessly tagged him.

[No backdoor admissions, fair treatment for all.]

Lu Shiran watched his sister’s icy words and couldn’t help but shiver.

Why did he feel like he was looking at a devil when he found out his sister was still the principal?

Qin Family.

Mrs. Qin had been having a hard time these past few days. Ever since she made it clear she didn’t want to return to the United States, she had been put under house arrest by her second uncle.

Besides not being able to leave the house, she couldn’t even take a step without someone following her.

However, no matter how much she lost her temper, she couldn’t get rid of those bodyguards.

With no other choice, Mrs. Qin had to stay at home.

That day, she was browsing the forum of Shengyang High School, hoping to find some clues about Qiao Yun.

Then she saw the audio.

The content of the principal’s speech was so bizarre that many people recorded and posted it online, but it didn’t stir much of a fuss, just students amusing themselves.

Mrs. Qin casually clicked on it and heard a voice all too familiar to her. In the past, she would have paid it no attention, but now that voice haunted her in her dreams and was etched deeply into her mind.

It was the owner of this voice who had caused them such harm, Mrs. Qin would never forget!

Mrs. Qin was instantly stunned, listening to the audio over and over, muttering to herself, “Strange…”

Indeed, it was very strange.

The audio was a speech by the principal of Shengyang High School, so why did it sound so much like Qiao Yun’s voice? Could it be someone’s prank?

Mrs. Qin clicked on the post again and looked carefully, confirming it was not a prank but indeed the voice of Shengyang High School’s principal!

She was shocked.

What exactly was going on?

Mrs. Qin couldn’t figure it out. After thinking for a moment, she addressed the bodyguard guarding her and said, “I need to see my second uncle, ask him to come over.”

Upon learning Mrs. Qin was asking for him, her second uncle was very reluctant to go over and listen to her complaints and tantrums again, but fearing she might do something extreme, he finally went.

In the living room.

With a stern face, the second uncle asked, “What do you want to see me about? Speak.”

Mrs. Qin licked her somewhat dry lower lip and said, “Second uncle, I’m an adult, you can’t put me under house arrest like this! It’s illegal.”

With a look of ‘here we go again,’ the second uncle said, “Haven’t I told you? These bodyguards are for your personal safety.”

In his mind, he thought, Oh, now you know the law?

Mrs. Qin scoffed: Protect her? What a joke.

“I don’t need protection.”

“How can you not? With so many enemies of the Qin Family, it’s better to be cautious.”

Mrs. Qin’s lips curled into a cold smile, not dwelling on this matter. She lowered her eyes and pretended to mention casually, “By the way, I just heard an audio, and the voice sounded so familiar yet I can’t remember whose it is. It’s so disturbing, could you help me listen to it, second uncle?”

Without waiting for a response, Mrs. Qin directly played the audio in front of him.

For the second uncle, who had only recently had ‘close contact’ with Professor Qiao, hearing this voice at first almost made him subconsciously think it was Professor Qiao’s voice.

Mrs. Qin watched the second uncle’s expression closely, her gaze slightly dimming. She paused the recording and smiled, “Second uncle, do you know whose voice this is?”

Unsure of his niece’s intentions, the second uncle decisively denied, “I don’t recognize it, how can you tell by just the voice? Besides, there are so many people with similar voices in the world.”

Mrs. Qin tugged at the corner of her lips, with a mocking smile, “Really? Why do I find it so similar to Qiao Yun’s voice? But this is the voice of Shengyang High School’s principal.”

She joked, “Could it be that Qiao Yun is the principal of Shengyang High School?”

The second uncle couldn’t help but twitch his facial muscles, but quickly composed himself, “Nonsense, a little girl? Principal? You must be dreaming in broad daylight.”

Not intending to waste more time with Mrs. Qin, the second uncle stood up decisively, “Fine, if there’s nothing else, I’m leaving.”

Mrs. Qin didn’t stop him, just gripping her phone a little tighter. The absurd idea that had previously appeared in her mind surged up once again.

Shengqiao Group was the major shareholder of Shengyang High School and Pei Ya was the CEO of Shengqiao Group, which in turn had a long-term collaboration with Tianqi Research Institute.

Her second uncle had acted like a completely different person as soon as he met Qiao Yun… and now there arose an audio that sounded suspiciously like Qiao Yun.

Mrs. Qin scoffed, her speculations growing bolder by the moment.

But what if they were true?

Mrs. Qin bit her lip, deciding to take another gamble.
