Reborn As Super Heir Chapter 1605 - 1589: Confusion

Chapter 1605: Chapter 1589: Confusion

"You don’t recognize her? Then maybe I got it wrong. The woman who brought my youngest to the Qingxu Taoist Temple back in the day was nad Huang Chengxiang, she looked a lot like you. I thought you might be relatives."

Old Mr. Zhong explained.

When Huo Sining suddenly heard this na, she was completely stunned, her eyelids twitched suddenly, and her heart began to beat violently out of control. Her gaze almost locked onto Old Mr. Zhong’s face, as if trying to see clearly if this person was lying.

"When... when did this happen?"

Huo Sining’s lips trembled slightly, she vaguely felt she might have discovered another earth-shattering secret.

"What matter?"

Old Mr. Zhong was taken aback, and upon realizing what Huo Sining was asking, he quickly replied:

"Are you asking about the day my youngest was sent back? I rember that day clearly, it happened to be my youngest’s birthday, Dragon Boat Festival in ’97, and early in the morning, a Taoist sweeping the temple knocked on my door, saying there was a woman outside who nad ."

Huo Sining shivered, stunned on the spot, unable to regain composure for a long ti.

If this matter is true, then it’s too absurd.

Her father faked his death in Bashu back in the day, which could be explained, but her grandmother had died many years before ’97, so why would she appear at the Qingxu Taoist Temple where Old Mr. Zhong was, and return a daughter who had been dead for years?

That’s absolutely impossible.

"Are you sure that woman’s na was Huang Chengxiang? What did she look like?"

Even Gu Xu, listening on the side, thought sothing was off. He had investigated Huo Sining back then, so he rembered clearly that Huo Sining’s background was a bit complicated. The matters between the Liang Family and Huang Family were known to many in the Imperial Capital, so it wasn’t hard to find out.

But Gu Xu distinctly rembered that Huang Chengxiang, after splitting from the Liang Family and starting her own, died of illness a few years later.

By the tiline, that was before the ’80s, so how could she resurrect over a decade later and even appear in Changnan?

This was too bizarre, practically qualified as a supernatural event.

"I’m sure, because when that woman returned my youngest, she told

to take care of her well and said when I was no longer able, she’d co to take her back."

Old Mr. Zhong also noticed the odd expressions of Huo Sining and Gu Xu, as if recalling sothing, he slapped his forehead and said:

"At that ti, I was worried about making mistakes, concerned that if soone ca to take my youngest after I was buried, she might be tricked, so after that woman left, I drew a portrait of her. The painting is still in my study, if you don’t believe , I can bring it to show you!"

With that, Old Mr. Zhong hurriedly walked to the study, and after more than ten minutes, he rushed back to the courtyard, holding a hanging scroll in his hands.

After entering the courtyard, the old man wasted no ti, and in front of Huo Sining and Gu Xu, he unfurled the scroll.

Old Mr. Zhong was an expert in antique reproductions, and naturally, his painting skills were exquisite, rendering the person’s features vividly and intricately.

Once the scroll was opened, the person seed to leap off the paper, brimming with spiritual energy.

Upon seeing the person in the painting, Huo Sining couldn’t help but tremble.

This person bore a six or seven-point resemblance to her, from facial features, expressions, to the dimples at the corners of the mouth.

But that wasn’t what shocked Huo Sining; she was startled because this painting was identical to the woman weeping pearls, embroidered on the screen in her grandmother’s bedroom.

Previously, Huo Sining didn’t understand what was going on, but now she could be certain that the Huang Chengxiang ntioned by Old Mr. Zhong was undoubtedly her grandmother.

However, even if her grandmother hadn’t died back then, by ’97, she would have been in her fifties or sixties by Huang Chengxiang’s age, but the woman in this painting looked like a youthful lady, showing no signs of aging.

Seeing Huo Sining’s expression, Gu Xu felt sothing amiss, frowning tightly. After a mont of hesitation, he asked, "Did this Huang... say where she went?"

Old Mr. Zhong shook his head, "I was overwheld with joy, feeling like I’d been given a huge surprise by heaven, too excited over seeing my youngest to be concerned with asking her so many questions. After giving

instructions, the woman left directly, and when I ca back to my senses, she was already gone."

Gu Xu’s expression turned serious, taking a deep breath but not speaking further.

Old Mr. Zhong seed to rember sothing, "Oh, right. Because that woman appeared too suddenly, I felt sothing was wrong, so I tried asking my youngest a few things. My youngest can’t speak, but she loves to draw. I asked where she’d been all these years, and she drew a picture for . I couldn’t understand it, but I guessed she wanted to express where she’d been living."

As he spoke, Old Mr. Zhong pulled out a piece of rice paper from his pocket and unfolded the drawing.

The paper depicted a place that looked beautiful, with seas and boats, seemingly an island.

But what made Huo Sining astonished was that, not far from the island, amidst the vast misty sea, a mountain peak lood faintly.

The outline of that mountain peak felt inexplicably familiar to Huo Sining, suddenly reminding her of the antique lampstands she bought at Tang Jun’s antique shop.

The fragnts pieced together, soaked in yellow wine, revealed a painting with a mountain peak that echoed the one in this picture, strikingly similar.

Unsure about her thoughts, Huo Sining felt it couldn’t be such a coincidence, but she discreetly committed the picture to mory.

During her brief interaction with the Zhong Family’s Youngest, Huo Sining had noticed this girl couldn’t speak, but after using her spiritual energy to probe, she found nothing physically wrong with the girl.

Considering the child had been kidnapped before and couldn’t speak, perhaps due to psychological trauma, Huo Sining couldn’t help but sigh heavily again.

"It’s strange, my youngest has always been gentle but distant, even with

around all the ti, I’m the only one who can grow close to her. She’s mild with others, but unexpectedly drawn to you, showing such affection at first sight. It seems she truly likes you."

Seeing Huo Sining reach out to gently touch his daughter, as his daughter showed a comfortable and contented expression, Old Mr. Zhong’s eyes unwittingly showed a hint of jealousy, although he couldn’t help but sigh with amazent.
