Chapter 51 - President Dus Birthday Party (4) (2/2)

Even though their friend was from the Shangguan Family, they were still at the Du Mansion.

After all, one should always respect the rules of the house they were in, and the rules here are one that must be strictly enforced.

With that, they left and went back to the party.

She snuck into one of the rooms on the second floor. With one quick glance, she knew she was in the twins' rooms.

Even though they shared a room, given the size of it, they both get enough space for their toys and stuff.

DX had told her earlier that in order to keep them away from the reporters, the twins would be staying at their grandmother's house for the night. He had always been careful about exposing his boys to public scrutiny.

Kai Xin went to one of the shelves and looked at the contents. They were mostly action based manga, books on economics and finance, and some books on computer.

She chuckled as she thought, "What a huge contrast..."

When she saw the framed pictures of the twins, the corner of her lips curved up slightly as she picked it up. She can easily tell them apart. Even though they have similar features, Lyle had inherited his father's black wavy hair and dark eyes while Jack had straight dark brown hair and brown eyes.

Kai Xin touched Lyle's face in the frame as she reminisced about the past. He was so tiny back then. When she saw him for the first time, all she wanted to do was to protect him and shield him from the dangers that were lurking everywhere.

He was barely six years old when they found him. So undernourished, he was about the size of a four year old as he held onto her clothes and begged her not to leave him. Unable to bear his crying face, she had promised him that she would always be there. However, when he finally fell asleep, she had given him back to his father's care and since then, she never meet him in real life again.

It was the best for everyone. Back then, she had thought that since her relationship with his father was meant to be transient, there was no point in bonding with anyone, especially the kids. It would only hurt everyone involved.

She placed the frame back onto the shelf and murmured softly as she gaze at the mini version of DX, "You grew up well…"

The nagging feeling that she was being watched made the tiny hair at the back of her neck to stand up. Kai Xin felt someone behind her and she turned just in time to see a punch heading towards her.

Luckily, her reflexes were quick enough as she deflected the punch and moved aside. Inside the dark room, illuminated only by the lights on the shelves, she had trouble identifying the rapidly advancing attacker.

She narrowed her eyes and got into an offensive stance as she thought, "Is he a foe or a friend?"
