Chapter 600: Chapter 600 Xian Yan and Xi Yan_1

"Before you pick up Yan Yan, go to the Chenghuang Temple and buy some offerings."

"Okay."

"Right, don’t buy any paper figures, especially not females!"

Although your father had died nineteen years ago, the thought that your mother could still be so jealous made you chuckle, but at the same time, you felt a deeper sense of melancholy.

Sweeping tombs during Qingming is a Chinese tradition, as well as the day for descendants to mourn their ancestors.

Words like father, dad, and papa were very vague and unfamiliar to you, even though as a child you often asked your mother why you didn’t have a father, leading you to feel sentimental and sad; but as you grew older, you became more concerned about the relatives still alive in this world—one was your mother who often whipped you, and the other was Mother En, deep in the Minnan mountains.

After buying some items carelessly from the Chenghuang Temple, you placed them all on the rear seat of the car, then took Zhao’er to pick up Little Qinniang from her school, Yuhang Second Middle School.

Little Qinniang’s real age should be fifteen, but she looked younger than her actual age, and considering she had never had any formal education before, your mother pulled some strings to get her enrolled into Yuhang Second Middle School in the seventh grade.

Xi Yu had given Little Qinniang an IQ test before, and her IQ was a terrifying 320, a genius among geniuses; even Xi Yu had to admit defeat in her presence.

According to Xi Yu, in the past month, Little Qinniang had already mastered the curriculums of elementary, middle, and high school, and now, behind the scenes, professionals had already started to teach her college courses.

From this perspective, it seemed Little Qinniang no longer needed to attend school, but your mother thought otherwise; she believed that no matter how high a person’s IQ was, it would be useless if they could not adapt to society. Therefore, she deliberately sent Little Qinniang to start middle school so she could begin interacting with peers and dealing with ordinary people.

Yuhang Second Middle School was your alma mater, where you spent your three years of middle school.

You parked the car on the street outside the school gates, where some parents had already arrived early to wait.

Nowadays, children going to and from school often require parent pickup and drop-off, a practice especially prevalent in Yuhang as every family had only one precious child. Although the two-child policy had been implemented, with today’s rising prices, the average family still found it difficult to bear the economic burden of having a second child.

Starting at 9:30 AM, some students began to come out of the school gates one after another, met by their parents.

To others, it might seem difficult to spot their own child among so many students, but you, who had already activated the Sen Luo Eye, weren’t worried about that at all. Instead, you chatted idly with Zhao’er beside you: "Zhao’er, what did you and Guihua do the other day?"

Zhao’er still had an indifferent expression, but there was a hint of light in his eyes when he looked at you: "Guihua told me not to tell."

"Aha, so that young lady even instigated my Zhao’er, huh?"

You didn’t give up and continued to ask, "Can’t even I know?"

Zhao’er seemed to struggle a little, hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head: "I can’t say, Yun will find out soon."

Hearing that you would eventually know meant the thing they were secretly doing had something to do with you. You raised an eyebrow and asked Zhao’er, "Could you perhaps give me a little hint in advance?"

Looking at Zhao’er shaking his head, you could only shrug your shoulders. At that moment, you naturally turned to look out the car window. Another group of middle schoolers in uniforms, carrying backpacks, emerged from the second middle school gate, among them, two porcelain-doll-like little girls were walking toward you.

The little girl on the left seemed slimmer, with simple short hair, her face a bit dark, yet much fairer and healthier looking than when you first saw her, and her small frame had grown healthier as well.

The girl on the right was slightly shorter, pointing to a long ponytail, her black hair appeared very smooth, and her egg-shaped face was adorable.

The presence of these two naturally drew the attention of many nearby, with some parents even comparing their own children to them, yet they all sighed lightly in response.

Since children were not yet old enough to dress up, their appearance and physique at this time were the most innocent, determined solely by their genetics. The comparisons made by some concerned parents immediately made them feel inferior and ashamed.

In every aspect, these two girls surpassed their children by a significant margin.

"Brother!"

A car model like the Ye Xiao was a rare sight in China, standing out like a crane among chickens, so Little Qinniang and her friends noticed it as soon as they stepped out of the school gate.

Seeing you get out of the car, Little Qinniang immediately called out sweetly, then happily pulled her friend over to you.

"Brother, this is my good friend, Xi Yan."

Without waiting for you to ask, Little Qinniang, who had already read the curiosity in your eyes, introduced her friend with a smile.

"Xi Yan?"

Upon hearing this name, you couldn’t help but be a bit surprised, because wasn’t Little Qinniang’s full name Li Xi Yan?

It had not occurred to you that such coincidental things could happen in this world.

"Little sister, what is your last name?"

"My surname is Xi, as in ’returning to one’s place’ Xi."

"The surname Xi?"

You were immediately taken aback and were about to inquire further when a murmur of surprise rippled through the crowd around you.

Turning your head, you saw Xi Yu striding towards you, her physique stunning, dressed in an expensive ladies’ suit, with long legs sheathed in black stockings, and her black hair flowing behind her amid the gasps of admiration from the onlookers.

As always, Xi Yu’s gaze was fixed straight ahead. She was not ignoring those around her, but rather it was disdain, a pride that stemmed from deep within her core.

"Elder sister."

Xi Yan greeted her with a smile, took Xi Yu’s jade hand, and introduced her to you, "Brother, this is my elder sister."

"Master Li, long time no see."

Rolling your eyes slightly, in fact, when Wu Qiyi visited you the day before yesterday, Xi Yu had also entered your dorm.

"I truly didn’t expect you to have a sister." you said to Xi Yu.

Xi Yu glanced at Xi Yan beside her and replied with a faint smile, "She’s just like me, we’re both orphans."

"I apologize, I wasn’t aware of this."

"It’s fine, we’ve long since grown accustomed to being strong." Xi Yu scrutinized you briefly, "It seems Master Li’s injuries have fully healed."

"Yes, indeed so." nodding, you also remembered what Mother En had instructed you earlier and said to Xi Yu, "Oh, right, is Little Yun free tomorrow?"

Xi Yu was momentarily startled, then immediately a gleam sparked in her eyes, "Is Master Li seeking Miss for an errand?"

"Yes."

"As long as Master Li has a request, Miss will naturally offer her assistance at the earliest convenience. I will cancel all her scheduled arrangements immediately." A smile appeared on Xi Yu’s usually indifferent face, "May I know what matter Master Li needs to discuss with our Miss?"
