Zhang Manlin: "Do you know who Wei Dong is?"
Huo Siqian: "He's Mian's classmate from high school . "
Zhang Manlin: "Mhm, Qin Chu told me that Huo Mian lent him five million yuan . "
Huo Siqian: "She did?"
Zhang Manlin: "Mhm, Qin Chu said he investigated himself . Siqian, you should look into this as well and find out why Huo Mian really lent that much money to him . . . Anyways, Qin Chu's really mad about this, and I think Wei Dong liked Huo Mian back in the day . That's why Qin Chu's so angry that Huo Mian lent him money . "

Huo Siqian: "Okay, I'll look into this . Is there anything else?"
Zhang Manlin: "Qin Chu also said that I look like a younger version of Huo Mian . "
Huo Siqian: "Haha, you did well, Manlin . "
Zhang Manlin: "Big Brother Siqian, I did everything you trained me to do . Qin Chu also said that if things really end up badly with Huo Mian, he wants to go back to the United States and take the twins with him . "
Huo Siqian: "He's probably bluffing, Qin Chu wouldn't give up on Mian without a fight . You can't believe everything he says . "
Zhang Manlin: "You're right, Big Brother Siqian . I will keep gathering intel . "

After hanging up, Zhang Manlin let out a long sigh of relief . She used to be just a normal country girl; five years ago, she met Huo Siqian and he changed her life .
Over the last five years, she never stopped copying Huo Mian and even mimicked her voice . To look more like her, Zhang Manlin even underwent at least a dozen surgical procedures .
After all that, Huo Siqian burnt all her medical files and even killed the doctor who did it - this way, no one aside from the two of them would ever know that she got plastic surgery .
Even her parents thought that her appearance changed because she grew up, and her classmates thought that her change was nothing more than makeup .
Huo Siqian was good; he created a Huo Mian replica so much like the original that even Su Yu and Qin Chu were almost fooled .
Five years ago, Huo Siqian began training his ultimate weapon because he knew he would be able to use Zhang Manlin to his advantage one day . He indeed planned far enough into the future .
-South Hill Manor, Master Bedroom -
After Qin Chu got home, he took a quick shower . As he walked out, he called instinctively, "Honey, are you asleep yet?" However, he received no response . . .
Only then did he remember that Mian had gone back to her mother's; putting on this show was sure hard . However, they both knew that if they didn't deal with Huo Siqian, their family would never be able to live in peace .
Therefore, Qin Chu and Huo Mian decided to go through with the act .
A while ago, Qin Chu noticed that Huo Siqian had placed bugs in Huo Mian's office and car . He even bought off one of the maids at South Hill Manor, but Qin Chu didn't say anything or uproot them all . Instead, he decided to go with the flow and use them to his advantage .
That day, Huo Mian and Qin Chu talked secretly for a long time in the study . Qin Chu crawled into bed, lit up a cigarette, and thought back to that evening .
