Hearing You Yi’s question, Lu Sheng felt a sinking in her heart.
So, it was because of her previous appearances at the piano competition and Old Mr. Fu’s birthday banquet that exposed her two identities as "rosy" and "panda."
That’s what caught You Yi’s attention, prompting him to track her down all the way from the UK to Jiang City, even seeking her out at school?
What Lu Sheng didn’t know at the moment was that You Yi had spotted her on the surveillance footage from Huafeng Bank.
From her perspective, the original owner of her body was indeed from a poor single-parent family in the countryside.
Regardless, learning to play the piano or going abroad required a lot of money.
So, You Yi’s suspicion of her was not unfounded.
But there are many exceptional people in this world.
If it was just because she had these two identities at a young age, and he had directly sought her out because of them.
Then, isn’t this You Yi a bit too sensitive?
...No, that’s not right.
There must be some more direct clue pointing to herself that let You Yi find her so accurately.
On the surface, Lu Sheng appeared calm, but her mind was racing at this moment—
Since her rebirth months ago, You Yi had never discovered her whereabouts.
Why had he found her existence only now?
After her rebirth, she seldom did anything directly related to the identity of Bai Qiang.
If she had to mention anything related to Bai Qiang, aside from the first time she went to find Gu Zhi at Crystal with a note, and the charity auction dinner at the Fu Family where she contacted Meng Lin,
It was the recent trip to Huafeng Bank for Old Mr. Fu’s birthday, where she retrieved Shen Dai’s White Jade Orchid Blossom Cup from the safety deposit box as a gift.
Could it have been because of taking that item?
Thinking of this, Lu Sheng slightly raised her eyebrows, her heart suddenly enlightened.
Now, You Yi must be suspecting she is Bai Qiang, or suspecting there is some kind of connection between her and Bai Qiang.
She had been wondering how to explain so everything would seem reasonable and dispel You Yi’s suspicions.
But if You Yi really targeted her because she had retrieved something from the safety deposit box of her past life,
If she deliberately found other reasons to deflect, it might instead confirm You Yi’s suspicions.
Then she might as well just blow her cover.
So as You Yi finished speaking, Lu Sheng directly said, "I can play the piano, because of a sister."
You Yi seemed surprised by Lu Sheng’s response, pausing briefly: "...A sister?"
"Yes," Lu Sheng nodded, "A sister named Bai Qiang."
Hearing Lu Sheng voluntarily mention Bai Qiang, You Yi froze for a moment, but quickly concealed the sudden sharpness in his eyes.
"I see—that’s really quite fortunate to have met such a sister."
You Yi’s expression unchanged, he continued to inquire, "However, the cup you mentioned giving to someone, wasn’t it Shen Dai’s White Jade Orchid Blossom Cup?"
"I remember you said at the banquet that you purchased both Shen Dai’s Orchid Blossom Cup and the orchid flower together, these two items should be worth nearly two hundred million."
"Does a young student like Lu Sheng have that much savings at such a young age?"
Lu Sheng looked up and saw You Yi’s intent gaze on her.
Indeed, the remarks just now had explained her relationship with Bai Qiang, as well as why she knew how to play the piano, why she went to the UK for a boxing match, and why she was in front of Bai Qiang’s safety deposit box.
But for a seventeen-year-old country girl to have hundreds of millions of dollars was indeed cause for suspicion.
"...Mr. You," upon hearing this, Lu Sheng spoke calmly, "Perhaps you don’t know that apart from rosy and panda, I have many other identities."
"For example, one of the identities is that I am the only closed-door disciple of Master of Traditional Medicine Feng Guolin."
"I have been studying medical skill under my master since I was five, and casually making a small pill can sell for six or even seven figures on the market."
"Therefore, although I grew up in the countryside, that does not mean I don’t have any savings. The so-called poverty aid others speak of has never been truly accepted by me and my mother."
"Moreover, apart from my medical skill, my talents in other fields are enough to afford me a wealth that many people can’t reach in their lifetimes."
"Although saying this may not sound modest, I want to tell Mr. You that I am a genius."
"Many things that seem unreasonable to ordinary people can be reasonable for me."
With that, Lu Sheng looked up calmly, "So, Mr. You, do you still see any issues?"
