Chapter 914
After Han Qian returned home 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 some similarities in appearance .
“Han Ying is the son of my father’s brother . After my mother gave birth to me, she couldn’t have children anymore, so they took in Han Ying and raised him with me 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 name 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 punishment .
“Han Ying is too ambitious and I dislike him . ” Han Qian didn’t hide her real feelings . “I should thank you for this time . I’ve always wanted to contend with him, but he hurt me several times .
“Okay, let’s not talk about this, I think he’ll need quite some time 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 mentioned 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 Meng 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 semester 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 seemed 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 came 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 requirements 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 home because he got very poor grades .
Throughout the whole winter holiday, Ming Shu didn’t see him other than meeting 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 come to her during the holiday, covering the hidden intention of meeting her brother .
Jian Shu also spent most of his winter holiday at home and talked with Han Qian several times . 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 times .
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 seemed to have changed into another person . He suddenly became 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 time, Ming Shu only met him once .
It was a quick meeting by chance and Ye West Wind walked away in a rush .
One day after school, Ming Shu saw Li Meng .
The fake female protagonist was far too law-abiding recently and Ming Shu didn’t have any chance to gain Hatred Points .
Seeing Li Meng was alone right now, Ming Shu followed up without any hesitation .
She walked along the road behind Li Meng, keeping an appropriate distance .
Li Meng made a call at the telephone booth, then looked around while marching slowly on the road . She seemed to be very alert .
After walking past two more streets, Li Meng stopped .
This place…
Ming Shu saw this place in a picture at home; 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 Meng come here?
Li Meng had already begun to walk inside . Strangely, there were no workers there today; the ruins were everywhere but it was very quiet .
Li Meng 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 came down from above .
Ming Shu frowned .
She felt something was not right and retreated .
Li Meng 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 Meng shouted .
Ming Shu turned her head back . “Wasn’t you avoiding me? What now, have you thought it through and want to date me?”
A cold smile appeared on Li Meng’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 me where they are?
Li Meng thought her hair would turn gray when she tried to communicate with her .
So angry .
Li Meng took a deep breath . “They’re up here, won’t you come 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 Meng was very confounded . “Where are you going?”
“I’m going to call the police . ”
Li Meng: “…”
Li Meng looked up, then came down very quickly . “Stop, Jian Xi, stop where you are! If you call the police, your brother will die immediately . ”
Ming Shu paused . Li Meng 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 blame me, blame yourself . ”
“Blame 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 Meng, tell me, why?”
The Host devoted herself to her just because of her fake kindness, but then what end was the Host given?
“Shut up!”
Li Meng scolded her .
“If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have become like this . Do you know how hard I’ve worked? Why were you born to be rich, why…”
Li Meng 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 mercy .
“…”
Li Meng almost choked on air .
“Humph, Jian Xi, it’s no use arguing with me here . You’ll know the consequence later . ” Li Meng took out a knife . “Go up . ”
