He Xiyan rubbed at her eyes that were still filled with exhaustion. She remembered having dinner here before she fell asleep.
âWhat time is it now?â she asked her younger sister.
If there was something that lifted her spirits today, it was the fact that her younger sister was finally treating her like a proper sister.
They werenât that distant anymore and could speak to each other like true sisters.
âItâs already past eight, why donât you get up first?â Shu Man asked as she lifted the covers off He Xiyam. She had specially asked her mother to prepare one more portion of dinner and it was still piping hot.
He Xiyan got off the bed and after some sleep, she finally looked like she had a bit more energy and her face was no longer as sunken and sallow as before.
âMan Manâ¦â He Xiyan said as she took her sisterâs hand in hers and their eyes met. They looked similar in appearance and this was especially true for their eyes.
The childish innocence that most girls possessed could no longer be found in their eyes since they had been through many painful experiences themselves.
âSister, what do you want to say?â Shu Man asked with a smile as she looked at her sister in confusion.
He Xiyan retracted her hand and smiled genuinely at her sister. Then, she took off the necklace that she had been wearing when she left the castle. A jade pendant hung from it and this was a necklace that she had been wearing for more than 20 years.
She clasped this necklace around her sisterâs neck.
âMan Man, this is for you,â He Xiyan said softly and gently patted her sisterâs shoulder. She had finally fulfilled her wish that she had held for many years by finding her sister.
Shu Man looked at the small pendant that hung from her neck. She remembered her sister telling her that she had a jade pendant that was exactly that same when she was younger but she had no recollection of wearing such a thing.
âAre you sure that I had the exact same pendant?â Shu Man asked in surprise since she truly had no recollection of it. She had even received a strange platinum necklace the other day and the person who had given it to her even claimed that it belonged to her, but she had no recollection of that either.
The recent string of strange events left her feeling completely befuddled.
He Xiyan nodded and said a little sadly. âYes, Man Man. You had the exact same jade pendant. Our mother said that she had bought two of the exact same jade pendants, one for each of us.â
âDo you know who Su Ye is?â Shu Man asked as she bit her lip. She felt very confused and bewildered when she mentioned his name because she couldnât remember ever having met that man.
He Xiyan froze for a moment and she seemed a little confused as she looked at her sister. She was surprised that her sister would bring him up.
âWhich Su Ye?â she asked uncertainly as though she wasnât sure if the Su Ye her sister was talking about was the same famous Young Master Su who was known by everyone.
âThe young master of the Su family, the boss of that technology firm,â Shu Man said with a frown. She had been very confused these few days. Young Master Su had tried to ask her out but she had ignored him.
He Xiyan didnât understand why her sister would suddenly bring him up. She knew who Su Ye was but she wasnât that close to him.
âWhatâs wrong? Did he come looking for you?â He Xiyan asked as she grew even more confused.
Shu Man nodded. âYes, he tried to ask me out but I didnât go in the end. Strangely, he even gifted me a villa the other day and this villa is located in the best location along the Naam River district and is worth almost close to 300 million dollars. I donât understand why heâd do such a thing. Could he be our long-lost brother?â
