Chapter 220: Hitting the Pain Point
"My relationship with him is similar to that with your second sister Chu Yixue," Zhong Nianyao raised an eyebrow, "It's all bad karma!"
Mr. Chu had two sons and one daughter. His eldest son had three children: the eldest daughter, the second daughter, and the fourth young master. His second son, Chu Ciyan, had only one child, Chu Xu. Chu Xu was the third child in the Chu family, and Chu Yixue was his second cousin.
Chu Xu blinked, totally confused.
"By the way, how did you find your second sister?" Zhong Nianyao felt a little curious. "There didn't seem to be any news before!"
As for the fact that Shen Yixue suddenly became Chu Yixue, it seemed a bit strange no matter how you looked at it. However, a big family like the Chu family would not recognize a child casually. They were willing to recognize Shen Yixue now, which should mean that they had confirmed that Shen Yixue was Chu Yixue's.
"It's a coincidence."
Although he didn't know why Zhong Nianyao was interested in this matter, Chu Xu still enthusiastically told her what happened. "My uncle and aunt's second daughter went missing when she was young. They have never stopped looking for her over the years. Some time ago, my aunt and my mother went shopping and went to a clothing store."
"At that time, Shen Yixue worked there, and she was the one who served my aunt and my mother. Later, my aunt accidentally discovered that there was a butterfly-shaped birthmark behind Shen Yixue's ear. My second cousin had an identical birthmark behind her ear when she was a child."
"However, my aunt didn't alert anyone. Instead, she found someone to investigate Shen Yixue. She found out that Shen Yixue was adopted by her current parents. After that, she even asked someone to find a way to get Shen Yixue's DNA. After testing, she confirmed that she was my missing second cousin, and then she told the family about it."
After listening to this, Zhong Nianyao nodded, with a thoughtful look in her eyes, "So that's how it is!"
On this side, Chu Xu was explaining the little things to Zhong Nianyao. On the other side, Li Jingming also saw the second lady of the Chu family that Zhong Nianyao mentioned.
When he saw the second young lady of the Chu family, Li Jingming couldn't believe his eyes. Because this second young lady of the Chu family was none other than his ex-girlfriend Shen Yixue.
The moment he saw Shen Yixue, he almost had a bad temper and wondered if he was hallucinating. When he confirmed that the person following the master and the lady of the Chu family was really Shen Yixue, he was ecstatic.
However, he did not act rashly, but waited until Shen Yixue was alone before slowly stepping forward.
"Xiaoxue!" Li Jingming's tone was full of affection.
When he looked at Shen Yixue, his eyes were full of tenderness and love. It was as if they had always been a loving couple and had never been apart.
When Chu Yixue heard Li Jingming's voice, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes. However, the entire banquet hall was full of people, and she didn't want to start a fight with Li Jingming.
So she took Li Jingming and quickly came to the corridor outside.
As soon as they arrived at the corridor, Li Jingming took a step forward and wanted to hug Chu Yixue in his arms.
However, Chu Yixue frowned and dodged directly, her tone even carrying a hint of displeasure, "Li Jingming, what are you doing?"
At this moment, Li Jingming didn't notice Chu Yixue's displeasure at all. His face was full of smiles, and even when he spoke, his tone was excited, "Xiaoxue, I really didn't expect that you were the lost second daughter of the Chu family. If I had known earlier-"
"If you had known earlier, you wouldn't have broken up with me, right?" Chu Yixue had a sarcastic smile on her face. "Why? Now that you see I've become the second daughter of the Chu family, do you regret breaking up with me?"
In the past, Li Jingming was her best choice. However, now that she had become the second daughter of the Chu family, an illegitimate child like Li Jingming was simply not worthy of her. Her future partner would definitely be a son of a prominent family, not an illegitimate child like Li Jingming.
Li Jingming noticed Chu Yixue's displeasure, and a puzzled look appeared on his face. "Xiaoxue, what's wrong with you? Now that you are the second daughter of the Chu family, my mother will definitely not object to us being together. Are you unhappy?"
"Happy?" Chu Yixue's sarcastic smile grew even wider. "Li Jingming, do I look happy to you? That's right, your mother definitely won't object to us being together now. It's a pity that I don't like you anymore."
Seeing Chu Yixue, who looked like a completely different person, Li Jingming was greatly shocked. However, remembering the good times they had together, he reached out and wanted to hold Chu Yixue's hand. "Xiaoxue, I know you are angry about me breaking up with you. But that was not my intention at all."
"The reason I chose to break up with you is because I was afraid that my father would hurt you. This is also for your own good! I really love you, and you definitely haven't forgotten me, right?"
"Li Jingming, you really are both a hypocrite and a hypocrite!"
Chu Yixue had completely lost her past tenderness and fragility. She sarcastically said, "You don't really think you're such a charmer, do you? Any woman would like you. Let me tell you, you used to look down on me, but now you're no longer worthy of me."
As she spoke, she pointed in the direction of the banquet hall and said, "Take a good look at those noble young men in there. Which one is worse than you? You should clearly understand your own identity! You are just an illegitimate child of the Li family. You don't really think that just because you entered the Li family, you are truly a noble young man!"
These words hit Li Jingming so hard that his face turned extremely awkward.
It could be said that being an illegitimate child had always been his biggest pain point. He was also well aware that the upper class despised illegitimate children like him the most.
He never imagined that Chu Yixue, who once loved him so much, would actually use this point to attack him directly.
"Xiaoxue, you——"
"What? You don't believe I would say such a thing, do you?" Chu Yixue sneered and said, "Li Jingming, before it was you and your mother who looked down on me, but now it's me who looks down on you. I'm telling you, we've broken up, and we have nothing to do with each other anymore. Don't bother me anymore. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
