Chapter 328: Chapter 328: Capital City’s Number One Swan (2)_1

At the sound, Xia Wan’an, holding a kitten, turned back to look.

A woman in a wheelchair, manually pushing it, glided out from inside the house.

The woman was wearing a pure white silk dress, which made her appear elegant and lively. Her facial features were exquisite, somewhat similar to Han Jingnian.

Xia Wan’an recognized this person, although she had not seen her in person.

This woman was Han Jingnian’s aunt, the biological sister of Han Jingnian’s father, and the biological daughter of his grandmother, Han Qingqing.

Years ago, Han Qingqing eloped with a poor student against the Han Family’s will. Later on, that man abandoned Han Qingqing and their baby. Penniless and with nowhere to go, Han Qingqing had no choice but to return home. Because it was a family scandal, Han Qingqing and her daughter rarely appeared in public.

As for what Han Qingqing had been through, Xia Wan’an heard about it from Han Zhijin. Han Qingqing was a dancer. More than two decades ago, she was the top socialite in the capital city, known for her fantastic ballet skills. Many praised her as "the first white swan of the capital city".

However, after eloping with the poor student, Han Qingqing was involved in a car accident and lost the use of her legs. From then on, she had been confined to a wheelchair. It was said that the accident occurred while she was trying to save the poor student...

Either way, based on Han Zhijin’s descriptions, Xia Wan’an understood that Han Qingqing was a passionate and fearless woman, who had thrown herself into a doomed romance for the boy she loved.

Han Qingqing’s daughter was named Han Yixiao. Xia Wan’an had met her once - the girl who stuttered when she was Han Jingnian’s female companion at a party.

While Xia Wan’an was lost in her thoughts, Han Qingqing had already pushed her wheelchair up to her.

Even after experiencing such tragic romance, Han Qingqing - rightly the daughter raised by the grandmother - had a softness and elegance about her. Her voice was as gentle as the wind on a rainy day: "Are you... Jingnian’s wife, Xia Wan’an?"

Xia Wan’an returned to reality and quickly called out, "Aunt."

Han Qingqing smiled lightly and nodded, then her eyes landed on the cat in Xia Wan’an’s arms, "This cat is lovely."

Xia Wan’an stretched forward the kitten for Han Qingqing to see, "It’s named Little Mirror."

"What a cute name." Han Qingqing reached out and gently stroked Little Mirror’s head. She then spoke again, "Today is Monday, right? The day of the family dinner at the old house... Good thing you’re here, can you help me take something to the old house..."

"Oh, okay." Xia Wan’an quickly followed Han Qingqing into the small villa.

"I can’t move very easily, so could you take it from the dining table yourself? It’s a bottle of osmanthus wine. I fermented it myself. My mom loves it, you could take it over. You can taste it at tonight’s family dinner."

Under Han Qingqing’s instructions, Xia Wan’an eventually left the small villa with a bottle of osmanthus wine in one hand and Little Mirror in the other.

This small villa was the first house that Han Jingnian’s grandfather built, and it was a gift for his grandmother. Even after they built a larger villa, they couldn’t bear to tear it down.

Although the small villa and the old house were connected, there was a distance between them. As Xia Wan’an passed the outdoor swimming pool and walked on the winding path in the garden, she heard a whimpering sound...

Xia Wan’an instinctively slowed down. Once she was sure she hadn’t misheard, she stopped. She stood there for a while, identifying that the whimpering sound was coming from a large patch of roses.
