As for Lu Jintian, when Jiang Xue said she had no connection with the Jiang Family, he appeared disappointed, not even noticing Jiang Xue had already left.

How could that be?

He finally encountered someone in South City who looked like him and felt a psychic connection; how could she not be his sister?

His surname is Jiang, and her surname is also Jiang. Could this all be a coincidence?

No, he does not believe it. There aren’t so many coincidences in this world. Many things that seem coincidental often have inevitable connections.

It seems he really needs to investigate thoroughly.

Thinking this, Lu Jintian snapped out of it, realizing Jiang Xue had already left. He looked at the closed door again with disappointment and went back to where he was staying.

What Lu Jintian didn’t know was that Jiang Xue’s mind was not at peace either. She had already confirmed that Lu Jintian was indeed her brother, but her mind was still filled with questions. Before sorting out these questions, she wouldn’t hastily acknowledge him.

Moreover, Lu Jintian had mentioned the Jiang Family earlier. She worried the other party would return to the ancestral family. Yet she herself had no such intention; she wanted nothing more than to stay far away from the Jiang Family.

If she acknowledged her relationship with Lu Jintian and he decided to return to the Jiang Family, she would inevitably have to go back too, which she was unwilling to do.

Just as Jiang Xue was troubled, the Little Fox suddenly spoke up, saying, "Woman, why don’t you acknowledge him?"

"Why should I acknowledge him?" Jiang Xue retorted.

"He is your brother. Woman, are you doubting his identity? If that’s the case, I can tell you with great certainty that you and he are blood relatives."

"How do you know?" Jiang Xue believed the Little Fox’s words. Moreover, she had long believed the other was her brother. It was just her considerations preventing her from acknowledging him.

Of course, this she did not want to tell the Little Fox. In her past life, she never knew she had a brother. Even in this lifetime, if she hadn’t seen Lu Jintian, she wouldn’t have known.

Furthermore, she suspected the Jiang Family didn’t know either. Otherwise, Old Sir Jiang would have recognized him long ago. After all, for some families, males are far more valued than females.

"Who am I?" The Little Fox puffed up with pride, saying, "I am the Fox Immortal, understood? What can escape my eyes?"

"Yes, you’re the most capable!" Jiang Xue echoed, sounding rather insincere. The Little Fox was slightly agitated and was about to say something when Jiang Xue spoke again, "I have my plans for this matter, so don’t worry so much."

"By the way, I’m a bit sleepy. Let me nap a while. Remember to wake me once time is up." After saying this, Jiang Xue lay down on the bed and closed her eyes.

Lying on the bed, however, she found it hard to sleep and deeply missed Mu Qiancheng. If he were around, she’d tell him first about this situation.

But now, he is still out on field training, and she couldn’t even get through on the phone, let alone tell him about her troubles.

Reflecting once more, Jiang Xue thought she might be overthinking and believed it best to let things take their course. As long as Lu Jintian found the evidence proving she’s his sister, what harm could come from acknowledging it?

If he really decides to return to the Jiang Family, she can distance herself from him then. After all, without their parents, they were each other’s only family in this world.

Thinking this, Jiang Xue temporarily set aside the matter and slowly drifted into dreams. Tomorrow she had a tough battle, best to rest well now.
