Ni Sitian swayed slightly, her breathing becoming more disordered. She released Xu Jiayue's arm and showed Xu Jiayue her cufflink and the photo together.
Before she could ask any more questions, Xu Jiayue asked in confusion, "Hey, Sitian, where did you find this cufflink? Wasn't it in my treasure chest?"
"Your treasure chest?" Ni Sitian's heart ignited with hope, and she eagerly grabbed her, asking, "What do you mean?"
"This cufflink originally belonged to Dad. Later, he lost one of them, so they couldn't be a pair. I was little then and liked shiny things, so Dad gave me this one to play with. I hid it like a jewel and kept it in my treasure box. When I was little, I would hide one or two treasures every year. I even hid my brother's fountain pen, which he couldn't find. I took it out to reminisce during the New Year. And there were many ridiculous things..." Xu Jiayue's lips curved into a smile as she talked about these childhood anecdotes.
But Ni Sitian gripped her arm too tightly, and her smile gradually disappeared. She winced in pain and hurriedly called out to Ni Sitian, whose entire face looked unwell, "Sister-in-law, are you feeling unwell?"
"Where is your treasure chest?" Ni Sitian grabbed Xu Jiayue and shouted, her stomach already aching slightly, but she couldn't care less about that now. She yelled urgently, "Where is the cufflink that looks just like this one!"
The tray in Xu Jiayue's hands was shaken twice, and some black tea spilled out. She quickly reassured her, "Sitian, don't worry, I'll go get it right away."
"Go now!" Ni Sitian released Xu Jiayue, her heart pounding, and screamed, "Go now!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Xu Jiayue placed the tray on the stairs and hurried upstairs to her room.
She didn't dare to delay for a moment. As soon as she entered the bedroom, she took out her treasure chest from the cabinet, opened it, and quickly searched through the pile of things. She found the cufflink, hurriedly took it downstairs, and ran back up the stairs.
"Sitian, I found it, this is it." Xu Jiayue handed the cufflinks to Ni Sitian.
Ni Sitian picked up the one in Xu Jiayue's palm and compared it with the one she was holding herself.
The unique design and pattern are exactly the same!
Xu Haicheng and Gu Linping had a drunken one-night stand on the same day, month, and year, and these unique cufflinks are also a pair!
Ni Sitian could no longer convince herself that such a coincidence could possibly happen in the world.
Gu Linping's diary records that she had relations with Ni Qianshan and the owner of the cufflinks the day before yesterday. Since Ni Qianshan has already determined that she is not his biological daughter, then she must be Xu Haicheng's daughter!
Then wouldn't she and Xu Tingchuan be...
How could this be? How could this be? No, how could this be? It's impossible, absolutely impossible...
"Sister-in-law, what happened? Don't scare me!" Xu Jiayue grabbed Ni Sitian's arm, panicked, and took out her phone to call Xu Tingchuan.
Ni Sitian felt dizzy and her vision blurred. Her hands lost their strength, and her two cufflinks rolled off.
Her legs went weak, and her body swayed forward. She took a step down to steady herself, but the step happened to be on a tray of pastries. She stepped on the pastries and rolled down the stairs!
Xu Jiayue was holding onto her arm, but she couldn't stop her at all and was rolled along with her. She only had one thought: to protect Ni Sitian and the child. When she rolled down, she hugged Ni Sitian.
