Chapter 779: Who Exactly Was She?
He Xiyan imdiately left when the other woman did not respond.
She guessed that the woman was probably ntally ill, so she couldn’t be bothered to strike up a conversation with her either.
Han Xue quickly rushed over and tugged at her mother’s clothes.
“Mum, how was it? Did you get a good look at her face?” she asked.
She imdiately guessed that her mother was as shocked as she had been earlier.
It was too frightening to run into a dead person during the day at a shopping mall.
They looked extrely shocked and surprised and their eyes were filled with disbelief.
Han Qing shook her head and stared in the direction where He Xiyan had disappeared as though she couldn’t believe what she had just seen.
“She really looked so much like her!” she muttered softly after a while.
Han Xue had already pulled herself out of her reverie. She pulled her mother aside and said softly, “Mum, what should I do? What do we do?”
She couldn’t conceal her anxiety and fear.
Han Qing was also as worried as her daughter but she was skeptical that He Xiyan was still alive.
“Xiao Xue... she only looks like He Xiyan but it might not actually be her,” she said.
Han Xue frowned in annoyance and retorted, “Who else could it be then? It would be impossible for two people to look so much alike unless they are related by blood.”
“They might be relatives,” Han Qing speculated. “Think about it, let’s say that He Xiyan is still alive and still lives in Ye City, why would Ye Hao not be able to contact her and why couldn’t the police find her? Moreover, she would never have failed to pay her daughter Ye Zixi a visit over the past three years.”
Han Qing pointed out all the flaws in Han Xue’s theory after she cald down. They did look alike but the woman she saw didn’t look exactly like He Xiyan. He Xiyan wasn’t that plump.
“Mum, what should we do? Do you know Ye Hao...”
“Shh...”
Han Qing cut her off before Han Xue could complete her sentence when she noticed that the woman who looked like He Xiyan had returned.
“Xiao Xue, I want you to head back to the castle first. I’ll hire soone to tail this woman and investigate her identity,” Han Qing whispered.
Then, she stuffed her bags into Han Xue’s hand and walked several ters behind He Xiyan.
He Xiyan and Li Yue had returned because Li Yue wanted to buy a scarf.
After they walked one round around the mall, they entered a boutique shop.
The shop wasn’t very big but scarves that were sold in the shop were of very high quality and were very soft to touch.
He Xiyan selected a bright red scarf to match her black jacket while Li Yue happily selected three scarves.
They stood in front of the mirror and the many layers of clothes they were wearing made them seem a little plump. Obviously, He Xiyan looked even rounder than Li Yue.
Li Yue smacked He Xiyan’s shoulder teasingly and said with a smile, “Ms. Chen, you should try to lose so weight. If you successfully lose weight, you might even marry into a rich family and beco a rich lady. Su Ye’s girlfriend looks a little like you.”
Li Yue suddenly realized last night that Ms. Chen seed to look like Shu Man. She hadn’t noticed the resemblance before but after upon a closer look, she saw the resemblance, especially in their eyes.
He Xiyan asked with a laugh, “Is that so?” Su Ye’s girlfriend looked like her?
“Yes... I see so resemblance but his girlfriend is much slimr compared to yourself. You should try to lose so weight quickly. Then, you might even be able to steal her thunder and marry into a rich family,” Li Yue said in jest.
He Xiyan laughed awkwardly.
“That’s enough! Ms. Chen, stop trying to make fun of . I’m not lucky enough to marry into a rich family and moreover, you should earn your own keep. It isn’t easy being a daughter-in-law of a rich family.”
He Xiyan knew that Ms. Chen was just teasing her so she wasn’t offended. She guessed that it was rely a coincidence that she looked like Su Ye’s girlfriend.
