Chapter 690: A Huge Discovery

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

In “Roman Holiday,” the female protagonist was a princess while the male protagonist was a poor reporter and fate brought them together.

In “Sceneries,” the female protagonist, which was Xu Xiyan’s mother, acted like a normal young lady in front of the male protagonist, while the male protagonist was of high status in the country.

They first met when the male protagonist lost his memories and had even forgotten his name.

The female protagonist gave him the name “Feng.”

Xu Xiyan believed that Feng must be the F in her mother’s handbook. That was why the script was titled “Sceneries.” [1]

The met each other like many other normal people and fell in love. The only difference was that in the end, the male protagonist regained his memories and went back to where he was, while the female protagonist left with their child to protect the man she loved.

Xu Xiyan realized something while she was reading the script.

One of the sentences went like this:

[I have no other choice but to leave him. The two children we have were gifts from God, and I will take good care of them…]

Two children? Xu Xiyan could not believe her eyes. Don’t tell me that I have a twin sibling… But I could only recall being the only child… Is it a boy or a girl? Is he or she still alive?

The discovery was too important to Xu Xiyan. It was such a huge marvel that there was a sibling of hers living in the same world as she was.

She wanted to know about her sibling, but there was not much for her to work with.

The script only told the story until Jing Ruyue left the man, she did not mention how she married Xu Jinshan in the end.

Xu Xiyan wondered if her mother was forced to do that, and if there were any other reasons that she did not know of.

The identity of the male protagonist was too vague for Xu Xiyan to find out who he was.

Xu Xiyan could only leave it aside and hope that one day she could find him.

Xu Xiyan purposely went to look for Xu Jinshan to learn about her twin sibling.

Xu Jinshan was living the worst of his life, it was as if he was a walking corpse.

He had a mask on his face and hid under the table when Xu Xiyan came in.

“Come out! I’m not here for trouble,” Xu Xiyan said. “I have something to ask you.”

“What… what is it?” Xu Jinshan asked as he peeked his head out.

“When you married my mother, did you know that she had my twin inside of her belly? Do you know where the other child is now?”

Since Xu Jinshan’s face was badly burned, Xu Xiyan could not see his expression, but she did notice that he knew something in his eyes.

“You better tell me the whole thing or I’m going to break your arm!” Xu Xiyan scolded as she kicked the table.

“All right! All right! I’ll talk. You’re right, it’s a twin.”

“Where is the other child? A boy or a girl? Where is he or she now?”

Chapter 691: Enough As A Punishment

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Xu Xiyan could feel her heart throbbing as if she was about to meet the sibling she never met.

Yet Xu Jinshan’s answer made her want to choke him to death.

“It was a boy who came out first. I sold it to someone who offered 10,000 yuan for him. Your mother had no idea about it…” Xu Jinshan said.

It meant that Xu Xiyan had a twin elder brother.

She scolded Xu Jinshan for being worse than an animal in her head for selling her brother for a mere 10,000 yuan.

“Why don’t you just go to hell?” Xu Xiyan scolded and kicked Xu Jinshan, sending him flying to the wall as he spat blood onto the floor.

Xu Xiyan stared at Xu Jinshan angrily and asked, “Speak! Who did you sell him to?”

“I have no idea… The person who bought him had a mask over her face. All I can remember was that she had a white camellia embroidered onto her shirt. Everyone called her Mdm. White Camellia. That’s all I know. I swear…”

Xu Jinshan fainted after explaining.

Xu Xiyan believed that Xu Jinshan was telling the truth, that her mother did give birth to a twin

No one knew who her brother was sold to after he was born.

It was Xu Xiyan’s first time hearing someone called Mdm. White Camellia.

There was no way she could find someone with such a vague clue, it was normal to have flowers embroidered on one’s shirt.

My poor brother… Where are you now?

Xu Xiyan left since there was nothing more she could learn from Xu Jinshan.

After that, Xu Xiyan found a private hospital that was good at keeping their lips shit and contacted Xue Yating.

Xu Xiyan drove her car to pick Xue Yating up herself.

Xue Yating and Ni Xuelin both got into the car, and Xu Xiyan asked, “All done?”

“Yup,” Xue Yating answered. “I told my dad that we’re going on a trip.”

Xue Yating told her father that she wanted some time off after the performance and would be gone for quite some time. Xue Zhengrong did not suspect anything her daughter told him.

She could use the time to complete the surgery and take some time to rest her body.

“Jing Xi…” Ni Xuelin said. “I’m really sorry for what happened last time…”

“Don’t worry about it. Let’s leave it in the past.”

Xu Xiyan had heard from Xue Yating that Ni Xuelin was the one responsible for what happened at the performance.

She also heard about what happened to Ni Xuelin, how she caught her boyfriend having fun with another girl. The shock from that should be enough as a punishment.

Instead, Xu Xiyan should thank Ni Xuelin. If Ni Xuelin had not exposed her identity, she would’ve never found the masterpiece that her mother wrote.

Probably because they were both women, Xu Xiyan was more sympathetic with Ni Xuelin’s story. Hearing about Ni Xuelin deciding to go through the surgery with Xue Yating meant that she had already thought it through.

Xu Xiyan suddenly noticed that there was a car following them and was afraid that it was paparazzi.

“Sit tight. I’ll try to lose our tail,” Xu Xiyan said.

Xu Xiyan stepped on the pedal and lost the car tailing them after a few turns.
