The Imposter Princess

Chapter 3 - If it was me...

It was a about a fourteen hour flight from Country 86 to Country 1. Yin XinYi's first class seat had a lot of benefits. First, it was more of a small room than a seat. It had floor to ceiling doors and a plush chair that could lay down to a bed. It also offered a luxurious amenity kit with top of the line shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, and perfume brands. It also had a toothbrush, toothpaste, razor and comb all in a neat satin bag.

With three windows in the room and adjustable lighting, a high quality television with a small desk underneath it, it was a lush first class seat arrangement, even compared to other airlines. Even though she was almost f.o.r.c.i.b.l.y banished from her country, her family still provided her the best of the best. She was a Yin after all.

Reclining back her chair, Yin XinYi turned on the television to watch movies. However, her attention wasn't on the screen. Instead, she was wondering about her new life.

Her father would definitely have prepared her a house. She didn't have to worry about money since her father regularly sends more than enough money for her to spend lavishly to her bank account. Even if he didn't, she had more than enough money saved in a secret, personal account to live.

Unknown to all but herself and a select few, she was a very suspicious, and cautious person. There was no doubt that even if she did commit the crimes against her older sister, Long Kai would most likely found out. However, if she did commit them, it should not have been that easy for him. With her in committing the crimes, there was a chance that she would have gotten away with them. The evidence on the papers of her supposed crimes were a little too obvious for her liking. To others, it may have seen quite well hidden and appropriate of her connections, however, to the select few that truly know her, they knew that, first, she could cover things up much better and second, that she had more connections than she let on.

Rather, if Yin XinYi had committed the crimes, she won't have made the evidence so blatantly pointed at her. Naturally, she would create false leads, scapegoats, and set up some of the crimes up as simple accidents, or the negligence of others. The benefits she would have received from such actions was more than enough compensation for the time and resources she would have used. She would have gotten more time before she was uncovered as the true culprit and waste quite a bit of her enemy's resources.

Betting on human nature, if the task takes longer, and they don't get any results, the investigators will start to slack. They'll eventually become lazier, and lazier, taking that they won't get any results for granted. Quite possibility, they might even miss the leads that she couldn't hide. Eventually with no leads, the investigation will be dropped or neglected.

Also, due to the extra time created, Yin XinYi could cover up any leads and create more connections to hide anything that she couldn't.

However, the evidence from Long Kai was too shabbily done to even be connect her. The evidence was too obvious, and she had no motive. The reason of "falling in love with Long Kai" or "being jealous of her sister" was simply absurd. She had no interest in the man. He was too rude and cold for her liking. He had absolutely no humor and was the serious type. Plus, why would she ever be jealous of her sister? The more prestigious her sister gets , the more connections and power the Yins receives and in turn, the more connections and power that she gets.

Yin XinYi gets benefits for no work at all. All she has to do is ride her sister's tailcoats to power. Why would she hinder her sister? It's just more work for herself.

Yin XinYi's true personality was unknown to her family. Her family believed that she was a sociable, talented, calm young woman. They believed that she was simply withdrawn with her emotions. It was the image she portrayed to both her family, and outsiders.

To her closest friends, ones that her family doesn't know of, she was simply, an extremely lazy but petty, sly woman who loved money and food. There was no valid reason as to why she would harm her sister. Yet, no one wanted to believe her. They believed in Long Kai, even her family.

Yin XinYi knew that she would need to clean up her reputation and prove her innocence. Theoretically, it was simple. Find the person who framed her and get the evidence. However, realistically, Yin XinYi had no strong connections in Country 86 as Long Kai did. If the true culprit could fool even Long Kai, with his family's powerful connections as the cream of the crop of the elites in Country 86, then she would have no chance.

Yin XinYi had connections. She even had better connections than the Long family, however, her connections were mostly international, not domestic. It would serve no use to her.
