Volume 3 Chapter 30 Ice Melts Prejudice (Part 2)

  Qingchi's hand relaxed, he stared blankly at Xiangyue and stuttered: "You... why look for her... is there any special meaning?"

  "No, don't get me wrong! I just think Dad is too pitiful... Don't you miss your mom at all?"

  "Honestly, I don't really want to... She's different from your mom... In my memory, she even fought with us for candies..."

  "Really? Is there still a mother like this in the world?" Xinyue found it very amusing.

  "She's just that kind of person, I almost forgot about her." Qingchi had his hands in his pockets and gazed up at the sky with a melancholic expression, which was very moving! Xiangyue was completely stunned. This was exactly how she used to be, but why didn't she attract people back then?

  "What does your mother look like? She must be very beautiful, right?" Xīn Yuè asked softly.

  "Hmm, you now look just like her!"

  "Ah-ha!" Xinyue said with a sly smile: "No wonder Qingchi has such a bad temper, it's because of his mother's influence..."

  "Is the Double Son's house far? It would be great if we could just drive out now!" Qingchi only then realized that he was walking.

  "Let's take the subway? That way it'll be faster!"

  "What a nuisance! Let's go!" Qingchi said, raising his arm and running forward two steps.

  A taxi screeched to a halt.

  Qingchi rushed over to open the car door, but a cold voice came from beside his ear: "Young man, aren't you being too arrogant? This is the car I reserved for my wife! You'd better wait for the next one!"

  Qingchi only then discovered that there were two men and one woman standing beside her. The woman was elegant and refined, with a dignified demeanor, like a noble lady; the two men in suits and leather shoes seemed to be her attendants.

  "Why should I wait for the next one? This is the car I hailed!" Qingchi grasped the door and wouldn't let go.

  "Let's wait for the next one," said Qingchi. Just then, Xiangyue arrived a step late and began to placate everyone.

  "Xīnyuè! Are you Xīnyuè?" The noble lady, who had been pushed to the car door, suddenly exclaimed!

  Xīng Yuè and Qīng Chí were also shocked! Who is she after all?!

  "Xīnyuè ah! I'm a mother, I'm a mother!" The noble lady rushed over to hug Xīnyuè without any regard.

  "Madam, you've mistaken me for someone else! Let's hurry back!" The two men came forward and pulled the out-of-control noblewoman away.

  "My daughter, I miss you so much! Waaah...!" The noble lady grasped Xiangyue's hand and wouldn't let go, tears streaming down her face.

  "Let go! What makes you say she's your daughter?" Qingchi also came to pry open the madam's hand. This lady, although beautiful, wasn't her own mother after all!

  "Sorry, she's had too much to drink! She mistook you for someone else!" The two men dragged the noble lady into the car without any mercy.

  "I'm a mother! Save me..." A taxi drove away in the distance, carrying with it a sorrowful cry that faded from near to far.

  "Qingchi..." Xinyue cried out in a flustered tone.

  "What?"

  "That lady..."

  "She's either crazy or drunk! Anyway, she's not my mom! Hey, taxi!"

  Qing Chi stopped another car and two people got on.

  "Where are you going?"

  "No. 32 Guanghua South Road." Xinyue said weakly.

  Two people walked together in silence, each lost in their own thoughts.

  Qingchi is worried that he can't find Bingtong and doesn't know how to explain it to his teacher in the future.

  Xing Yue still couldn't forget the look of despair on Mrs. Gui's face... She knew Xing Yue's name and said I was her daughter? Is it possible that her daughter looks exactly like me, not to mention having the same name? What a coincidence! I should catch up with her and get some answers...

  "Isn't that Xia Yan and Shuang Er?" Qing Chi found a boy and girl in front of him, using small hands to pull a hook on the side of the road.

  Xīn Yuè also saw her brother and immediately guessed that Xià Yán was up to no good.

  Two people were busy calling for a taxi.

  Two good kids were concentrating on making a secret alliance when suddenly a surprised cry was heard beside their ears: "Wow, what are you whispering about? So mysterious! Can you tell sister?"

  Xīn Yuè walked over and put her hands on the shoulders of the two little ones, looking at them affectionately.

  Xia Yan was stunned and found Qing Chi staring at him with a puffed up face, scaring him into shouting "Shuang Er, run quickly!" before taking off himself.

  Qingchi grabbed Xiaoyan's collar and said sternly: "You little brat, was it you who did this? You've got quite a nerve!"

  "I didn't do anything! Let me go!" Xia Yan hated Qing Chi to death, her two small hands flailing and scratching wildly.

  "You can fool others, but not me! Hand over the Ice Crystal quickly!" Qingchi grasped Xiaoyan's restless arms and said. In fact, he had grown up quarreling with Xiaoyan, and his younger brother had a few tricks up his sleeve - he was well aware of them!

  "No, no, just no! You big idiot, your mom!" Xia Yan's hands couldn't move, so he used his small feet to kick and thrash about wildly.

  "You know, the more you rush to explain, the more it proves that there's something fishy! This is the experience I've summed up from you!" Qingchi's iron-like big hand grasped Xiaoyan tightly, but his body dodged and weaved to avoid the small creature's attack.

  "You don't know squat! I hate you!" Xia Yan didn't back down one bit.

  "You should know my temperament, I am impatient..." Qing Chi began to threaten Xia Yan with his old tricks.

  "Second sister..."

  Xianyue asked Shuang'er for half a day, but Shuang'er blinked her big eyes and pretended to be silly, refusing to admit that she had seen Bingtong.

  "Second sister, hurry up and save me! This little brat is bullying me!"

  "Let him go, I'll talk to him!" Xiangyue pulled over Xiaoyan's small hand and coaxed him, saying: "I know you can't leave Yingtong, how about we get the two families to run together in the future?"

  "How can that be......" Qingchi was about to object, but felt it wasn't the right time to discuss this issue. Actually, as long as they found Bingtong, what's one more day for a family? Moreover, Xiaoyan was still his own brother.

  "What if he plays dumb?" Xia Yan finally showed his hand.

  "No way, let's set the rules first! Don't you trust your sister?" Xiangyue thought: There should be a way to use Bingtong's power to make them gain knowledge.

  "I don't believe him!" Xia Yan pointed at Qing Chi and said.

  "What can you do? He doesn't have confidence in you!" Xinyue said with a hint of sarcasm.

  What does Qingchi not understand about her meaning? Obviously, she is dissatisfied that she has conquered her sister Yunyue! Hmph, this little scoundrel Xiaoyan is really strange, yielding to softness but not to firmness! Could it be that his previous obedience to himself was insincere and unwilling?

  Thinking of this, Qing Chi chuckled and said: "You may not believe it, but we can say it in front of Bing Tong! It's a promise!"

  The knot in Xia Yan's heart was finally untied. He glanced at Shuang Er, then said with a serious expression: "Then let's release Bing Tong and have a meeting?"

  "Alright, come on in." Shuang'er pushed open the door of her home.
