Chapter 122: Sorry Xiaoxiao. I can’t allow you to stay here. (1)
Zhou Xiaoxiao came to L City by herself and it was an island near the sea.
The temperature was suitable for people to live there and they had a slow lifestyle.
Zhou Xiaoxiao followed the address elder princess gave her and found a building near a shady path.
The building was probably left during the Republic of China and after people rebuild it, it revealed a strong sense of culture and civilization, but also a low-key sense of luxuriousness.
In the yard, the Japanese rose was blooming brightly and it peeked its head out from the simple and unadorned perimeter wall.
This belonged to elder princess’s original home.
But the time was different from the two worlds, so she had no idea how it looked inside.
Zhou Xiaoxiao raised her head to look at the swaying flowers, recalling the first time she had seen elder princess from the distant world. She was sitting in the corner of the yard full of blowing Japanese roses.
Although the princess was well-respected and got everything she desired, she still missed her relatives. It must’ve been a regret in her heart.
Zhou Xiaoxiao walked over and knocked on the door.
An amiable elder woman full of silver hair came to answer the door.
“Who are you looking for? Young lady?”
Zhou Xiaoxiao was stunned. This woman was similar to the elder princess in some senses.
“Hi grandma, is there a woman called Cheng Qianye here?”
“No. Young lady doesn’t seem to be local.” That grandma smiled kindly and said, “My surname is Cheng, but no one in our family has this name. I only have a son called Cheng Qianluo.”
Right now, a grand and luxurious car passed by them and drove into the yard.
The car window slid down and it revealed a male face almost exactly like the elder princess from Jian country.
The car door opened and a young man wearing a suit with his hair combed nicely, wearing frameless glasses and looking successful, came out of the car.
He was only in his early thirties and looked very young.
That grandma introduced, “That’s my son.”
…
Zhou Xiaoxiao said goodbye and left, feeling lost.
The address and people were correct, but no one knew about Cheng Qianye.
She was just walking confusedly when she heard someone call for her.
“Please wait a second.”
She turned around to see grandma’s son chasing after her.
He walked over to Zhou Xiaoxiao and lifted his glasses, remaining silent for a second.
“Are you talking about my twin sister?”
Zhou Xiaoxiao was shocked and said, “Cheng Qianye? Your sister?”
“Finally, someone remembers her like me.” That man sighed and said, “I can’t explain everything in a few sentences, so how about we find a place to sit and talk?”
Zhou Xiaoxiao and Cheng Qianluo took their seats in a seascape cafe.
It was very secluded and beautiful here; they were able to see the vast ocean from the French Window and hear the waves splashing.
Cheng Qianluo stirred his coffee and seemed to have sunk into deep thought.
Zhou Xiaoxiao tested and said, “Elder…uh no…is Qianye your sister?”
When looking at their ages, the elder princess was old enough to be his mother.
“I’m Cheng Qianluo and I have a twin sister, Cheng Qianye.”
Cheng Qianluo sighed and murmured to himself, “Qianluo and Qianye. These are the names that my sailor father gave us.”
“As children, my sister and I have a great relationship. She was very lively and liked to wear my clothes, mimicking my voice and pretending to be me jokingly. Yet, people had seen through her act frequently.”
“But one day, Qianye suddenly went missing.”
