773 A Million Times for You 135 (1/2)
”You know clearly yourself! Although you've never met her, showed her your concern, or even made your existence known in her life, you know deep down that you love her like a precious gem,” Shi Xiaoyu snapped, raising her head.
Tuoba Rui could not be bothered to argue with her and said simply, ”I won't continue debating with you. I must divorce you today, no matter what.”
”Mother, where… is Father's illegitimate daughter? Have they met each other before?” Tuoba Danxue asked.
”Of course they have. They've seen each other at your wedding. I bet you won't be able to guess who she is,” said Shi Xiaoyu, glancing at her husband.
After much thought, Tuoba Danxue probed, ”There were so many guests present at my wedding, I really can't guess who she is. Who is it? Tell us quick, do we know her?”
”It's that An Xiaoning.”
Tuoba Gucheng widened his eyes and stared at his Father in shock and disbelief. ”An… Xiaoning? Is that true!?!”
Tuoba Rui nodded and said, ”Yes, it's true.”
Shi Xiaoyu sneered and said, ”It's her, all right. She looks exactly like her mother. It's a striking resemblance that wouldn't go unnoticed.”
Tuoba Rui stood up in an attempt to slap Shi Xiaoyu again, only to be stopped by Tuoba Hancheng. ”Don't do it.”
At this very moment, Tuoba Gucheng's heart was shattered into pieces. He recalled the words An Xiaoning had said to him the night before and thought to himself, Did she come to the Autumn Palace to reunite with her biological parents?
If that was the case, why did she have to put on a mask back then?
”Father, have you two acknowledged each other?”
”No. She probably doesn't know yet that I'm her biological father,” Tuoba Rui said truthfully.
Tuoba Gucheng was filled with questions. Why didn't she reunite with Father when she clearly had the chance to?
It had never occurred to him that An Xiaoning would be his half-sister…
How unexpected.
The woman he loved most turned out to be his biological sister…
At this moment, he felt as if a dagger was plunged right through his heart.
”Why is she the one!?! You guys are really out to ruin our mood on New Year's Day!” Tuoba Danxue exclaimed, flabbergasted beyond words.
Shi Xiaoyu stood up and said, ”The three of you, follow me. I have something else to say to you.”
The three siblings stood up and followed her into the bedroom.
After closing the door, Shi Xiaoyu walked toward the bed and looked at her children solemnly. ”You can't let your father hear about what I'm going to tell you next. You mustn't let him know about it, no matter what. Otherwise, I don't know what the consequences will be.”
Tuoba Danxue stomped her feet impatiently and said, ”Got it, hurry and tell us what you wanted to say.”
After a moment of silence, Shi Xiaoyu said to Tuoba Danxue, ”I think you'd better not know about this. Go out, I'll talk to your brothers.”
