24 Identical Faces 2 (1/2)

”Then I shall leave and let you gentlemen to enjoy the best night of your life.” The older female that was with them earlier said as she smilingly retreated to the side and went to close the door when she was out of the room already.

The older female did not get any reaction from the people inside as they have their merry way inside. With that, she slowly left with thought that once the night is done, she would get a bonus from the house as she was able to make three guests pay more.

Inside of the room, the noise from inside did not cease and only increased.

”This is what I call a reward after the three of us were able to pass the scholarly examination!” The man clad in light blue said.

”Second brother is correct. Not only that, we were able to make some of the esteemed official notice. I'm sure we would get more opportunity after this.” The white robed man said.

”However, Third brother was not there at that time and were not able to see them. I'm worried that he missed the chance.”

Though it was said in a worried tone, it came out sarcastically. the man in dark green robe only smiled, seemingly oblivious and said, ”It is my unluckiness that one missed such a great chance, First brother and Second brother need not worry for me and sooner or later, there would always be a chance.”

”Brothers, I seem to have drink a lot more than one think. One should go out to get some air and clear my head and have to finish the things father had given to me.”

The man in dark green robe spoke as he stood up and went to retreat outside. The two elder brothers did not stop him and just mockingly looked at their youngest brother before they gave their attention back to the ladies in their arms.

When the three was speaking, Jiao Yu also took her time to recognize who they were. Though she had never met them personally and know their names, they were quite well known because of their distinct quality to everyone else as they were not only born as twins but triplets. At first when the two was first born, a lot of people condemned them for being an evil omen and needed to be offered to the Gods as sacrifice for the upcoming drought however, with the third child coming to the world, the people was surprised and called it as a miracle than an evil omen.

When the three was young, they were all so close and many were envious of their bonds as siblings. And with them growing and soon turning to be an adult, people rejoiced to see that all three was healthy and their bonds as sibling did not deteriorate however, when one was influenced and had seen how the world works, there won't be a person with a clear conscience to not use evil means to secure what their goals are, just as the three siblings bonds' slowly stretching like a thin thread, slowly breaking and thinning.

The three of them were all smart however, the only one that was on the spotlight was the youngest as he had more talents and was kinder than the other two and now that they were able to pass the scholarly exam, the two older brothers started to change and betray their young brother.

When the man got out of the room, he menacingly looked back to the closed door and unclasped his clenched fists.
