Chapter 218 - Lin Zhou: Han Xiangs Background (5) (1/2)
”The unique smell could appear once again with the similar recipe that I gave Han Xiang. If one was born with the smell, then they only need to drink the medicine once, for it to become a permanent smell. You must have known that Han Xiang had a unique smell, but it's only faint, right? It's because it can be said as a fake smell. No matter what a fake is always a fake,” Tao Gu Gu said. ”If the real daughter's own unique smell came out, the smell would be several times stronger and more alluring.”
Tao Gu Gu sighed, remembering that how Ce Fei's baby, was already showing a faint smell that attracted several buŧŧerflies. The Ce Fei told her when the real daughter grew up, the smell would become stronger and sweeter.
”What a strange heritage!” Yao Ying shook his head in disbelief. It seemed like there were many mysterious things in this world.
It was an indeed weird and unique inheritance. The first time Tao Gu Gu heard about it, she was also confused and in disbelief. It sounded more like folklore than fact.
”Indeed. The people outside the Ce Fei's maternal tribe aren't supposed to know about this secret, however, the tribe's people have scattered and blended into society. The Ce Fei said that there was no need to make it a secret anymore, but of course, only to the people that I trust,” Tao Gu Gu explained.
The quartet nodded in understanding.
”Tao Gu Gu, what about the story about Han Xiang's dance? It was said that her dance could attract buŧŧerflies... Was it really because of the smell too?” Yao Ling asked curiously.
”Hmm... This... I didn't really understand too. If it was the real daughter, she should be able to do it based on her unique and sweet smell. However, for Han Xiang, she shouldn't have that ability. You should probably ask her about it,” Tao Gu Gu answered.
”Then... how did she find out about the buŧŧerfly thing? Is it actually a coincidence? Maybe there was a field of flowers?” Yao Ling asked in confusion. She didn't really believe in coincidence.
Tao Gu Gu shrugged it off. ”I might given her a hint back then, but I don't know what trick that she used. With the unique smell I gave her, she should use her own smarts and skills to survive. I didn't think that she was able to use this kind of trick too. It seems like Han Xiang isn't a simple girl.”
Yao Ling nodded in understanding. She started to think that Han Xiang wasn't easy to deal with if she was able to come up with this scheme... or did she have someone else give her advice? Hmmm... Something was fishy about this, but she didn't have time to think about it for now. She saw that Lin Jian seemed to want to say something to Tao Gu Gu, so she stayed quiet.
”Tao Gu Gu, can... can you give me the secret recipes?” Lin Jian asked.
”What for?” Tao Gu Gu furrowed her eyebrows and asked in surprise. She didn't think that this would be any of use for Lin Jian.
”If somehow I find my sister, I want to use the secret recipe as a way to prove whether she's the real one or not,” Lin Jian answered honestly. He didn't want to make a mistake in finding his real sister once again.
Tao Gu Gu shook her head. ”Mm, I have the recipes memorized but, it can only be handled by a woman. There's a special ingredient that only women can do and have. That's why it will be useless to teach it to you.”
Without a second thought, Lin Jian pointed at Yao Ling. ”Then, you can teach Yao Ling!”
Yao Ling was taken aback. She pointed at herself wide-eyed and asked carefully, ”Me?”
