Chapter 914: The 90s (24)
After Han Qian returned ho that day, she reported on her brother to Father Han soberly.
Now Han Ying sill lay in the hospital and lived an even more miserable life.
“Are you and your brother biological brother and sister?”
“How do you think our appearances compare, am I like him?” Han Qian pointed to her own face.
Ming Shu recalled Han Ying’s face in her mind. It was indeed very different from Han Qian’s, but normally biological brothers and sisters would share so similarities in appearance.
“Han Ying is the son of my father’s brother. After my mother gave birth to , she couldn’t have children anymore, so they took in Han Ying and raised him with in our family.”
People in this era thought that the family ought not to let their belongings fall into outsiders’ hands.
Han Ying was not their biological son, but his last na was also Han.
“Doesn’t your father...” Have many bastard children out of the family?
Han Qian knew what Ming Shu was trying to say. She looked very calm as if she had long been used to it.
“My father doesn’t seem to have any sons, and all the other children outside of the family... are girls.” This was probably his punishnt.
“Han Ying is too ambitious and I dislike him.” Han Qian didn’t hide her real feelings. “I should thank you for this ti. I’ve always wanted to contend with him, but he hurt several tis.
“Okay, let’s not talk about this, I think he’ll need quite so ti to recover.” Han Qian waved her hands in the air like she wanted to wave away all unhappy things. “Jian Xi, about your brother...”
Han Qian’s face flushed when she ntioned Jian Shu.
She tried many different ways to get information on him.
Ming Shu wouldn’t interfere with Jian Shu’s private life and didn’t want to cause trouble for him. Therefore, Ming Shu was very aware of what she should say and what she should not say.
...
Li ng stayed low recently. She was so quiet that Ming Shu couldn’t even feel her existence if she didn’t take the initiative to find her.
The sester was going to end and the final exam was coming.
Ming Shu stared at test papers all day long and worried.
Why is there such a thing as exams?
Do I need an exam?
I only need snacks!
“Little Xi, do you know what Boss Ye has been doing recently? He appeared and disappeared so mysteriously, we can’t find him at all.”
Ming Shu pinched an exam paper while turning her head to look at the empty seat.
Ye West Wind seed to avoid her on purpose.
“What’s strange about him skipping classes?” Ming Shu asked the errand boy back.
The errand boy scratched his head. “Good point.”
Before Ye West Wind ca classes everyday, which may have made them forget that he was actually a student addicted to skipping classes.
After the final exam, Ming Shu thought she could finally have a good rest and didn’t have to deal with those difficult marks everyday.
The Jian family didn’t have strict requirents for her grades, so she didn’t have to worry about receiving a bad score.
But she heard that Ye West Wind had to spend the winter holiday studying at ho because he got very poor grades.
Throughout the whole winter holiday, Ming Shu didn’t see him other than eting him at the Ye family’s yearly feast.
Snacks ATM... She could change to another!
Like Han Qian.
Han Qian had used all kinds of excuses to co to her during the holiday, covering the hidden intention of eting her brother.
Jian Shu also spent most of his winter holiday at ho and talked with Han Qian several tis. But Ming Shu didn’t think they would end up together.
Instead, she thought the female protagonist Li Le might have a chance. Jian Shu and the female protagonist contacted each other several tis.
Yet she wasn’t sure how far they had gone.
After the winter holiday, school started again.
Ming Shu watched the seat behind her which was still empty and breathed a sigh of relief; or perhaps it was just a long sigh.
Ye West Wind transferred to another class.
His errand boys stayed, though. They still bought snacks for Ming Shu and carried her schoolbag for her, which was apparently ordered by Ye West Wind.
In another class, Ye West Wind seed to have changed into another person. He suddenly beca interested in studying and wouldn’t go against the teacher, nor would he skip classes.
His grades improved, taking him from the bottom all the way to the top twenty. In the mid-term examination, he even ranked top ten on the list.
During all this ti, Ming Shu only t him once.
It was a quick eting by chance and Ye West Wind walked away in a rush.
One day after school, Ming Shu saw Li ng.
The fake female protagonist was far too law-abiding recently and Ming Shu didn’t have any chance to gain Hatred Points.
Seeing Li ng was alone right now, Ming Shu followed up without any hesitation.
She walked along the road behind Li ng, keeping an appropriate distance.
Li ng made a call at the telephone booth, then looked around while marching slowly on the road. She seed to be very alert.
After walking past two more streets, Li ng stopped.
This place...
Ming Shu saw this place in a picture at ho; it was exactly the lot that Jian Shu and Li Le talked about before. Now the construction had begun and the demolition work was under progress.
Why did Li ng co here?
Li ng had already begun to walk inside. Strangely, there were no workers there today; the ruins were everywhere but it was very quiet.
Li ng walked fast and disappeared from Ming Shu’s sights soon.
Ming Shu stood at the stairs and looked up.
The handrails had been removed, and the broken and old wall displayed cracks. Children’s scrawling were present everywhere.
Dongdongdong...
The sounds ca down from above.
Ming Shu frowned.
She felt sothing was not right and retreated.
Li ng who stood in a corner twitched her mouth. She had to make noises and make Ming Shu see her.
Indeed, Ming Shu had seen her but she didn’t move. She stood down there, then turned around, preparing to leave the site.
“Jian Xi!”
Li ng shouted.
Ming Shu turned her head back. “Wasn’t you avoiding ? What now, have you thought it through and want to date ?”
A cold smile appeared on Li ng’s face. “Do you know that your brother and Li Le are going to die right now?”
Ming Shu looked up slightly at her and sounded light and casual. “So?”
“...” So? Are you not worried? Won’t you ask where they are?
Li ng thought her hair would turn gray when she tried to communicate with her.
So angry.
Li ng took a deep breath. “They’re up here, won’t you co up and see?”
“Won’t I die if I go up? I’m not a fool!”
Ming Shu stepped back.
In the face of Ming Shu’s unconventional behavior, Li ng was very confounded. “Where are you going?”
“I’m going to call the police.”
Li ng: “...”
Li ng looked up, then ca down very quickly. “Stop, Jian Xi, stop where you are! If you call the police, your brother will die imdiately.”
Ming Shu paused. Li ng thought her threat worked.
She rushed in front of Ming Shu quickly and stood in her way. Her hatred showed itself in the set of her eyebrows. “Jian Xi, don’t bla , bla yourself.”
“Bla myself for what? I didn’t take you to the Jian family? I didn’t treat you like the Jian family’s real young miss?” Ming Shu looked at her with a faint smile. “Li ng, tell , why?”
The Host devoted herself to her just because of her fake kindness, but then what end was the Host given?
“Shut up!”
Li ng scolded her.
“If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have beco like this. Do you know how hard I’ve worked? Why were you born to be rich, why...”
Li ng looked as if she was going to eat Ming Shu alive.
“You were just born into a good family, weren’t you? Why...”
“I earned myself a good family before birth, are you not convinced?” Ming Shu interrupted her without rcy.
“...”
Li ng almost choked on air.
“Humph, Jian Xi, it’s no use arguing with here. You’ll know the consequence later.” Li ng took out a knife. “Go up.”
