2248 This is fake
Nameless Nie’s pupils contracted abruptly.
Even Ye Wanwan was astonished.
What did Si Xia’s words mean… Using Ling Miao’s life as a wager…
Didn’t Ling Miao die many years ago?!
Nameless Nie’s smile faded. It was a long while before he said to Si Xia, “What do you mean? Ling Miao’s dead already.”
Si Xia’s lips curled up in an inscrutable smile. “Is she really dead? So will you bet or not?”
“Si Xia, enough with your deceptions! Just what the heck are you doing?” Ye Wanwan yelled at him.
Ling Miao’s death was a fact, but Si Xia was treating Ling Miao as a joke.
“What’s the hurry?” Si Xia’s eyes remained fixed on Nameless Nie. “In your heart, Ling Miao’s dead already, but… if you’re willing to come and a.s.sist me, I can bring Ling Miao back from the underworld in exchange and allow you to stay by her side. How about it?”
Patriarch and Madam Nie looked at each other in surprise. Ling Miao… really didn’t die?!
If she didn’t die, then Nameless Nie wouldn’t need to live in hatred and regret…
“So what you’re saying is that Ling Miao isn’t dead, and you know where she is.” Nameless Nie gathered his emotions.
“That’s right. I don’t think you’ll refuse this exchange, Nameless Nie,” Si Xia said.
“Brother, you mustn’t be deceived! Ling Miao is gone already!” Ye Wanwan said to Nameless Nie.
Nameless Nie nodded and didn’t say anything.
“Si Xia, you’re saying Ling Miao isn’t dead, but do you have proof? Take it out and show everyone,” Ye Wanwan said sarcastically.
“You want to see the proof?” Si Xia smiled and took out a phone, throwing it at Ye Wanwan.
Ye Wanwan caught the phone and looked at the photo on it.
The photo was from a hospital ward—the exact hospital indistinguishable—and the woman lying on the bed… her face was deathly pale and her eyes tightly shut. It was Ling Miao without a doubt.
“Ling Miao…!”
Nameless Nie frowned deeply.
“What do you think?” Si Xia asked.
“Bullsh*t proof.” Ye Wanwan pursed her lips and said to Nameless Nie, “Brother, this is fake.”
“Fake?” Nameless Nie was startled.
“That’s right. It’s obviously photoshopped. This is definitely fake,” Ye Wanwan replied.
“Mn, now that you mention it, Worriless, it does look rather fake.” Nameless Nie nodded quickly and set his icy gaze on Si Xia. “You dared to lie to me…”
“What? You can’t even tell whether this photo is real or not? No worries, there’s also a video. You can take a look yourself,” Si Xia said.
Ye Wanwan opened the video and pressed play.
It was still the hospital room from the photo, and Ling Miao was lying on the bed, her arm hooked to IV fluids. Her eyes were tightly shut and her breathing was even, as though she was merely asleep.
“If the photo was photoshopped, then this video should be adequate proof,” Si Xia said.
Ye Wanwan hastily said, “It’s fake!”
Si Xia furrowed his brows.
“This video was edited and it’s all CGI! It’s too fake! I was at least a golden manager back in China, so this kind of video just has mediocre special effects,” Ye Wanwan said.
“Nonsense. Do you actually know how to inspect something?” Si Xia asked.
“Of course I do! Like that photo, I’m certain it’s fake!” Ye Wanwan retorted.
