The Real Heiress Has an Appraisal System

The violent shaking was followed by a child’s cry of alarm...

Just as everyone’s hearts leaped into their throats, the dashcam seemed to freeze, getting stuck.

It just kept displaying: Loading...

At that very moment, Chen Yufan, who was watching on his phone, had trembling hands and tears blurring his vision.

He seemed numb, the large teardrops falling one after another without him even feeling the sting of sorrow.

He kept wiping his tears and sent a message in the bullet comments:

"It’s me! That little boy is me!"

"The little girl is my sister, Sister Gu!"

His two messages were also seen by the other viewers.

"Streamer, streamer, look! Someone’s claiming to be the kid from the video."

"Streamer, hurry up and see what’s going on! We’re getting anxious too."

"No way, did something happen to those two kids? Oh my god, this suddenly feels so creepy."

"A minute ago I was curious about what was on someone else’s dashcam. Good thing this is footage from inside the car. If it were from outside, we wouldn’t even know what happened in the crash."

Gu Shengsheng frowned at the username. ’Could it be Chen Yufan?’

Just then, Chen Yufan called.

His voice was choked with sobs. "Sister Gu! Sister Gu, that dashcam... it’s from back then. I still remember what the driver looked like. It was him, and my sister, that was my sister..."

Hearing him muttering to himself, Gu Shengsheng was afraid he would get too emotional and something would happen.

She said, "Don’t panic. I’m coming to find you right now. I’ll bring the dashcam. You just wait for me quietly at home."

"Okay," he nodded. "I’ll try to control my emotions."

Gu Shengsheng knew coincidences happened, but she never expected one this big.

’If this really is about his family,’ Gu Shengsheng thought, ’I need to get over there and tell Chen Yufan immediately.’

So she ended the livestream. She said, "Sorry, my friends, something’s come up and I have to go. I’m buying this car."

"Yes, I’ve set my sights on this used car."

Not only did her followers on the stream hear this, but even Jin Ran, who had been standing beside her the whole time, was exasperated.

"Miss Gu, this car isn’t that great. Are you sure you want to buy it?"

Gu Shengsheng said, "I’m buying it. I have a good feeling about it. It’s fine."

Jin Ran glanced at Lu Shijing, who was standing to the side, and made a sarcastic comment, "Some people’s taste is just... so-so."

Lu Shijing didn’t speak, his gaze drifting to Gu Shengsheng from time to time.

After Gu Shengsheng transferred the money to the used car dealership, the car was officially her property.

She then started looking around for something.

Lu Shijing asked, "What are you looking for?" He would find whatever she needed.

Gu Shengsheng didn’t stand on ceremony. "The paperwork for this car won’t be ready until tomorrow at the earliest, right? So I can’t take the car today. In that case, I’d like to borrow a screwdriver."

Jin Ran had the manager next to him bring a toolbox for Gu Shengsheng and asked, "What are you planning to do?"

Lu Shijing took the box, wiped the dust off with a handkerchief, and then handed it to Gu Shengsheng.

She took it, not one for trivialities, and found a screwdriver and a small blade. She then pried open the front panel, revealing the screw holes inside.

Then she dismantled the display panel. With a bit of force from the screwdriver, Gu Shengsheng popped open the four clips around the edges.

Once the panel was off, the hidden circuit board inside was easy to see. She then removed it. Gu Shengsheng carefully placed it in her bag.

Jin Ran said in disbelief, "You’re doing this yourself too?"

Gu Shengsheng said, "Mhm, I’m faster. If I asked your workers to do it, it might be a waste of time."

Although Jin Ran wanted to argue, what Gu Shengsheng said was true.

She completed the entire process in just three minutes. Anyone who didn’t know better would have thought she was a master technician who’d been working with screws for over a decade...

After stowing the part away, Gu Shengsheng hurried out. "I’m leaving now. Please handle the ownership transfer for the car."

Jin Ran watched Gu Shengsheng leave before turning to Lu Shijing. "Now I get what you see in her. You like how fierce she is."

"I can just imagine it. If you two ever get in a fight, she’ll come at you with a screwdriver to ’fix’ you."

Lu Shijing shot him a look. "Boring."

"You should be thinking about what she wants with that dashcam."

"I was just watching the stream. The dashcam has someone else’s recordings on it."

Jin Ran, however, was dismissive.

He waved his hand. "The dashcam is second-hand, so it’s normal for it to have old recordings. They probably just forgot to format it. Even if she takes it like that, she won’t be able to power it on, right?"

Lu Shijing looked at him as if he were an idiot. "She knows how to take it apart, so you don’t think she knows how to wire it up?"

"Oh, right. I forgot," Jin Ran said. "I really can’t imagine you two together. You’re such a mismatch. What would that even look like?"

"You’re so rigid, with a cold look on your face all day that’s sourer than a three-day-old corpse. I don’t think she’d ever go for your type."

Lu Shijing: "You don’t have a wife. You wouldn’t understand."

Jin Ran: ???

"Hey, just because you have a wife and I don’t—and an arranged one at that, meant to ward off ill fortune—what gives you the right to be so smug and look down on me?"

"Tell me, if it weren’t for me, at Starlight Bar and here at the used car market, would you have even met your darling wife?"

Jin Ran was indignant, but Lu Shijing just walked away.

He also had Lin Kai keep an eye on the second branch of the Lu Family to make sure they didn’t harm Gu Shengsheng.

Lin Kai was slacking off in the CEO’s office when he got the call.

He gave a very serious assurance, "Don’t worry, Boss! President Lu hasn’t had the energy to bother Gu Shengsheng lately; the company’s books are a total mess. As for Second Madam Lu, she’s still busy begging for help. She’s going from one wealthy madam’s house to the next, trying to raise funds."

"Today she probably went to Mrs. Yang’s and Liu Li’s places. I bet she hit a wall at both!"

Lu Shijing just grunted in acknowledgment, "Mhm."

Then he hung up.

「 」

Meanwhile, Gu Shengsheng was rushing frantically to Chen Yufan’s home.

She was worried something might have happened to him; he hadn’t sounded right at all.

Gu Shengsheng arrived at Wanliu District and was about to head to Chen Yufan’s apartment building.

Unexpectedly, right at the entrance to the building, she ran into Liu Li. Standing in front of her was Second Madam Lu, Wang Shufen. The two seemed to be arguing about something, but Wang Shufen’s posture was very submissive.

Seeing as Wang Shufen was used to being haughty and arrogant, this was the first time Gu Shengsheng had ever seen her so humble. It seemed the trouble the Lu Group had gotten into this time was no small matter.

Running into Wang Shufen, Gu Shengsheng felt it was bad luck.

Wang Shufen felt the same.

But she still looked at her with curiosity. "Shengsheng, who are you here to see?"

"I remember you just moved to Wanliu District, didn’t you? This is Shi Jing’s old apartment, but Shi Jing doesn’t live here anymore. Are you lost?"
