"Sugar Man."
"No." Beilin denied without hesitation, "It's obviously a hairpin."
Bei Yutang said calmly, "Brother, think about it carefully. Is it a sugar man or a hairpin?"
Beilin was silent for a moment, still unable to figure out the answer.
She sighed and said, "I was still young then. My brother broke my kite, and to make amends, he bought me a candy figurine. My father even scolded me for it, simply because I have bad teeth and can't eat candy."
After she reminded him, Beilin really remembered this incident.
"Yes or no?" Bei Yutang asked.
Beilin nodded.
Bei Yutang didn't wait for him to ask, and said directly, "Brother, do you still remember the 32nd year of the Xuanli calendar? That year, during the temple fair, I got lost from you, and it was you who found me in the end."
Beilin naturally remembered that he had taken his sister to see rare artifacts, leaving the servants behind. On the way, they got lost in the crowds. Fortunately, he eventually found them. To avoid punishment, the two of them never told anyone about the incident.
Bei Yutang continued to speak, and every time he talked about something, it was something only the two of them knew.
"I still remember you secretly coming to me the night before my wedding. If the Prince of Jin bullies me, I'll tell you. You'll definitely beat him black and blue. You also said that as long as you're still here, I won't let anyone bully me."
Everything that happened that day seems like yesterday.
The young man once stood under the moon and made a solemn promise.
He said that since his sister didn't have a mother's love, he would take good care of her on behalf of his mother.
He said that his sister was his treasure and would never let anyone bully her.
However, when he returned after three years of military experience, he saw a lonely grave.
He ignored everyone's attempts to stop him and rushed into Prince Jin's Mansion and beat up Tang Jingyu.
Even after being reprimanded by the Imperial Censor and others, he showed no remorse and even questioned Tang Jingyu in the hall.
He would not hesitate even if he was punished by Emperor Wenxuan.
Just because of her!
Bei Yutang recalled the past, and a thin layer of mist still appeared in her eyes.
All kinds of memories of the past, along with Bei Yutang's voice, also emerged in Bei Lin's mind.
Every scene and every incident made Beilin's heart beat fast.
"Are you really Yutang?"
At this moment, he already believed it about 80%.
Bei Yutang nodded.
"What are you doing..." Beilin looked at the person in front of him, scrutinizing him closely. The expression between his eyebrows was exactly the same as his sister's. Seeing this, Beilin finally understood why he had felt a sense of déjà vu the moment he saw her, and why she was the only one he felt close to.
Bei Yutang revealed how she was persecuted by Tang Jingyu and Gu Pianran, and then how she was reborn as a widow in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Naturally, she omitted details about the system, the destruction of the Bei family, and her brother's tragic end.
They don't need to worry about all this anymore, she can just take it on herself.
Bei Yutang talked about how she got to this point step by step, and how she brought down her two enemies from her previous life step by step.
Even though Bei Yutang said it simply, Bei Lin was shocked and his face was filled with rage.
"Tang Jingyu, that bastard," Bei Lin roared. "I'm going to order someone to find that bastard and tear him into pieces."
