Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“I couldn’t contact anyone outside and they abused me the moment I was even a little disobedient. They tied me to the bed for the first few years and everyday felt like a nightmare to me. I forgot a lot of things as a result.
“In the last year, they let me move around freely in my room when they noticed that I’d forgotten about a lot of things and stopped resisting. I lived like that until I saw a news related to you not too long ago.
“It was the anniversary of S.G Corporation and the rumor of you and another woman. Although I didn’t see a frontal photo of you, I recognized that it was you immediately and remembered everything about the times we spent when we grew up together.
“Since then, I started to plan my escape after I remembered you. I knew that the female doctor that gave me injections and fed me medicine everyday liked me. I was very resistant to her advances in the past, as I didn’t want to sell myself. However, I forced myself to accept her advances in order to escape and took the medicine she gave me everyday obediently. However, I forced myself to throw up the medicine the moment she left. Then… I gave my body to her that night and took the chance when she was delirious in her desires and knocked her unconscious.
“I wore her physician’s gown, took her employee pa.s.s and escaped from that crazy hospital. However, people from the hospital started to chase after me not too long after I escaped.
“I had been fleeing from those people for nearly half a month. I didn’t have money or an identification card on me and could only act as a beggar since I was so scared of being caught.”
Mu Sihan furrowed his eyebrows tightly at the sight of her being so fl.u.s.tered and hurt. “What’s the mental hospital that detained you?”
“It should be called Lingshan. I saw it on that doctor’s pa.s.s.”
Lingshan?
It was only in the city next to Ning City. It turned out that she had been so close to him all these years, yet he had never been able to find her.
Mu Sihan’s hands curled into tight fists as his expression was dark and cold. “If I didn’t drive into you tonight, were you not planning to contact me?”
Xue’er’s long eyelashes trembled badly like b.u.t.terfly wings that were injured. She sniffled as she said with a shaking voice, “Ah Han, Ye Qing had… I couldn’t face you anymore…”
She had not finished her words when she was interrupted by his cold voice, “Do you hate Ye Qing that much? Don’t you know how much he likes you?”
Xue’er’s lips trembled when she saw his hardening expression. He looked so cold and fierce that she felt she would be able to sc.r.a.pe a layer of ice from his face.
Was she imagining things? It seemed almost like Ah Han’s current behavior was a little similar to Ye Qing, who never lashed out to others in anger.
However, they were twins after all, so it wasn’t impossible that they shared some similar traits.
It might have been too long since she had last seen him, so it caused her to have the wrong impression.
“Answer me!”
Xue’er lowered her gaze as she shook her head. “Ye Qing has such a prestigious status and is already married. We both belong to different worlds. I don’t like him and don’t want to be liked by him.”
The temperature in the room immediately dropped to a freezing point.
“A-Ah Han, I’m really tired. Can you stop bringing up things from the past?”
She lifted her gaze, seemingly thinking about something. Gathering her courage, she touched his arm when she saw the unusual color on his aloof face. “Did you take the medicine for your fever? Your temperature is really high. If you leave it unattended, you might die!”
He grabbed her wrist easily as his well-defined handsome face leaned towards her. There was a complicated expression in his eyes that she did not understand. “You won’t be able to see me if my fever is gone.”
Xue’er did not understand what he meant.
He let go of her before she could say anything, “Rest properly.”
…
Mu Sihan left Xue’er’s room and heard a child-like voice trail over when he was walking down the stairs. The voice was laced in anger, “I heard that he brought a woman back. I don’t care if he’s tired, I want to see him.”
