Chapter 106 - Switching Lives

Lin Feng was suddenly at a loss for words.

“If it’s really as you said, why was Jiuan left alone in the mountains?

“That place is so remote that almost no one would go there. There are also wild beasts. If my master had not passed by accidentally, there would have been only two endings waiting for her.

“Either she would have starved to death or she would have been eaten by wild animals.”

When he heard this, Huo Jinqi’s heart trembled.

His voice shook a little. “Have you ever heard of… switching lives?”

“What do you mean?”

“I heard from my mom that before Yanyan was born, a master told her that Yanyan’s life wouldn’t be smooth. She would encounter two great disasters. One was when she was born, and the other when she was 21 years old.

“If she can’t get through them, then…”

“What does switching lives mean?”

“Find a child born on the same day, exchange their identities, and have them stay in each other’s homes for 22 years. Only then could the ordeal be survived.

“Huo Chulan also has a predestined fate.

“If the two of them exchanged lives, Yanyan would live to a hundred years old, and Huo Chulan would go from a life of poverty to a life of wealth, health, and happiness.”

“So you switched their lives?”

“My family didn’t believe it at first.

“However, Yanyan was sent to the emergency room right after she was born. We don’t know how many critical medical notices we’ve gotten before we found Huo Chulan, who was born on the same day, and proposed an exchange.

“It’s strange. Yanyan really got better after she changed her identity.

“So, we discussed it. After they turn 22 years old, we would reveal that we had accidentally swapped them when they were babies. Then, we would switch them back.

“Although Yanyan went to that family, her name was still Huo Jinyan.

“In our generation, the character used for all our middle names was Jin, and the word Yan was given by my grandfather.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Huo Chulan’s family wanted her to have the Huo family’s surname, and we agreed. Her name was given by them. Back then, Grandpa had only one request. If the character for her middle name was also Jin, she couldn’t use the Huo surname.

“Back then, we couldn’t interact with Yanyan often. The master said that if we interacted with Yanyan too much, she would become weak.

“Because her fate lies with the Huo family.

“Her life is light, and the Huo family’s status is too heavy. Therefore, it will crush her body.

“That family was good to Yanyan. We’d also specially trained people to take care of her.

“The master said that we could meet often after Yanyan turned three years old.

“But Yanyan was kidnapped before she was three.

“But it was also that master who said that as long as Huo Chulan was fine, Yanyan would be fine.

“But we never gave up searching for her.

“We searched for her for sixteen years.

“And we finally found her.

“You cannot accuse us of this, Lin Feng.

“We can’t afford it.

“You’re not the only ones who love her.

“She’s also the apple of our family’s eye.

“From before she was born to when she grew up, she has been our hope.

“I’ll talk to my parents about what you told me.

“We will find out the truth about what happened that year.

“If it is as you say, I will send whoever did this to prison myself.”

“Then Huo Chulan…”

“I will handle her.” Huo Jinqi’s voice turned cold instantly.

“She’s always known she wasn’t a member of the Huo family. We never hid it from her.

“It’s just her who doesn’t want to go back.”

Not only that, but she has also taken his sister’s status.
