Chapter 747 - Didn’t You Say You Would Only Marry Dai’er and No Other

Everyone knew that Shen Yunya’s sisterly love ran deep and true. Everyone was aware that Dai’er was useless, and the Shen family spoiled the eldest Miss Shen.

But no one knew how good Dai’er was. She was the one who paid particular attention to sisterly love with an emphasis on loyalty.

“Lin’er?” When Xi Jin saw his younger sister cry, he suddenly felt heartache. Lin’er did not like to cry. She only did it when Dai’er died. But now, she actually shed tears in silence, which made him feel terrible as well.

“Didn’t you have a good relationship with Ya’er before? Why are you like this now?” he asked.

“I only took them out to play because of Dai’er.” Xi Lin sucked in her breath and looked up at Xi Jin as she said, “My brother, do you remember what day April 12th was?”

Xi Jin nodded and replied, “It was the fourth day after Dai’er’s death, and I came back too late.”

Xi Lin opened her mouth. She wanted to say that it was actually the date of Dai’er’s death. But how could she say it? And would he believe it when she said it?

“Brother, do you still remember when He Lianhuang questioned Dai’er’s cause of death?” Xi Lin asked.

Xi Jin gave her a look and nodded slowly.

“We, as brother and sister, are as good as He Lianhuang,” Xi Lin said with a bitter smile. She smiled with shame, especially when she remembered her doubts about He Lianhuang regarding the earlier matter. She had not believed He Lianhuang’s words.

At that time, she just thought He Lianhuang was like her Imperial Brother, unable to accept Dai’er’s death. She assumed that was why he acted like that.

But now that she thought about it, she realized that the two of them, brother and sister, were the most foolish.

“Lin’er, why do you keeping bringing up Dai’er today?” Xi Jin asked in bewilderment. “And what did Si Mobai come to tell you?”

She had not mentioned Dai’er to him in the past for fear that he would be uncomfortable, but today she brought her up repeatedly.

Xi Lin glanced at Xi Jin and said slowly, “I dreamt of Dai’er last night. Her eyes were bloodied, and her whole face was badly mangled. Her knee bones were hollowed out and she was crying. She was yelling Shen Yunya, she was screaming for revenge, and she was saying that she was in so much pain.”

“Lin’er!” Xi Jin felt his blood run cold listening to those words. Dai’er had died from her illness. How could Lin’er dream of Dai’er in this manner?

Xi Lin looked up and briefly smiled as she said, “April 12th was the fourth day after Dai’er’s death. But Imperial Brother, you chose to get married on this date three years later. How could you let down the person you repeatedly said you like?”

Xi Jin looked down, dumbstruck.

“Do you still recall saying you would marry Dai’er and none other when you were young?”

Xi Jin was further shocked. He remembered. He was also trying hard but finally realized that it was just a delusion in the end. He said, “Dai’er and Jiang Ying were both happy in love and even discussed marriage, while I am the prince, shouldering a responsibility to the world.”

No matter what the reason was, he was not fated to be together with Dai’er.

“Jiang Ying?” Xi Lin could not help but snort. She hardened her heart and said, “My brother, don’t say that it was because of Dai’er. She’s not the reason that you do anything against your heart. You basically don’t deserve to love her at all.”

Her Imperial Brother not only wanted to marry Shen Yunya, but also help Jiang Ying become the lord of the Xuantian Alliance. And those two people were the murderers who had harmed Dai’er.

As a result, her Imperial Brother was really unworthy of loving Dai’er.

Xi Jin’s face instantly turned deathly pale, and he cried out with deep sorrow, “Lin’er...”

How could she say that about him? She was his sister and also Dai’er’s best friend. Should she not consider fulfilling Dai’er’s last wishes?

“Imperial Brother, Dai’er has already appeared to me in my dream, and I have also warned you. If you are still determined to marry Shen Yunya, that’s up to you. I only hope you will not regret it. At this time, the Imperial Family’s prestige cannot be compared to Dai’er. You’d better think it over properly.”
