1386 Welcome Home, Eldest Miss
Qiao Xi sat up, her slender fingers pressed against her temples as she frowned with a cold gaze.
The room was dark and silent for a long time. Qiao Xi suddenly smiled.
Heh… She really did not expect her to have such a tragic past! She was deceived by a man and even forced to jump off the cliff by him!
Qiao Xi’s entire body was filled with a wisp of piercingly cold killing intent.
She would rather Kang Jichuan take her blood and give her a cold and heartless gaze to send her on her way than listen to Kang Jichuan’s hypocritical explanation. He was just finding excuses for his actions.
She heard that Kang Jichuan had been a vegetarian all these years. He went into seclusion every month to pray for blessings and even invited people to perform rituals to exorcise the souls of the dead. It seemed that he was not doing well!
All because Kang Qingzhi was pitiful, he decided to sacrifice her without hesitation. Was this what a kind-hearted person should do?
She suddenly sneered. Kang Jichuan must have thought that she had died a long time ago, so he invited someone to perform a ritual, hoping that she could rest in peace. Now that he suddenly saw her, was he so scared that he could not sleep at night?
Was he worried that she would recover her memory and kill him and Kang Qingzhi to vent her anger?
Kang Jichuan probably did not expect that the hypnosis would suddenly lose its effect. Actually, Qiao Xi felt that even if she did not see Kang Jichuan, she would gradually recover her memory over time.
Since she had already recovered, she would start fighting back now!
…
On the other hand, in the Kang family’s residence in Y Nation.
Kang Ru sat in the study and took out an exquisite sandalwood box from the locked drawer. Inside was a slightly yellow photo and an exquisite jade necklace.
His eyes were filled with tears as he held the necklace. His hands were trembling slightly, and his voice was extremely excited. “It’s her! It must be her! Her temperament is so similar to your mother’s, and her necklace was designed by your mother. At that time, your mother left me one. She said that I’d be reminded of her whenever I saw the necklace. She kept the other necklace with her.
“Jichuan, she must be my daughter, right?”
Kang Jichuan lowered his head, his lips tense as he frowned.
Even now, he was still unable to accept this fact. That woman was actually exactly the same as Xi Xi, but didn’t she fall into the sea and die?
Actually, he did not want to kill her either. After all, she was his younger sister! He had said that as long as Xi Xi went back with him, he would find a chance to let her leave. However, she did not believe him and even jumped off the cliff on impulse. The seawater was so deep and so far from the shore. Her body was weak, and she was hypnotized. It was impossible for her to have survived!
After that day, Kang Jichuan suffered from insomnia. The moment he closed his eyes, he would see Qiao Xi jumping in front of him. How could his heart not ache? He was extremely guilty and even secretly went to the beach to look for her, but there was no trace of her at all. She completely disappeared into the vast sea.
Now that Kang Jichuan had confirmed that she had passed away, she was back!
Kang Ru, who was at the side, was still so excited that he was at a loss. “My poor daughter! Has she been doing well outside all these years? Has she returned to Li City? Jichuan, quickly get ready. We’ll set off for Li City immediately. I want to look for her!”
Kang Jichuan was silent for a few seconds. After calming down, he nodded and replied, “Alright.”
“She’s wearing Yunqiu’s necklace. She must be Yunqiu’s daughter. I’ve sent someone to investigate. She’s the daughter of the Yin family. Since the Yin family has already acknowledged her identity, she must be my daughter. I have to bring her back to make up for all the regrets I’ve had all these years!”
Kang Jichuan’s heart was heavy, and Kang Ru’s words still echoed in his ears. The Yin family had already acknowledged her. Once Qiao Xi recalled what had happened back then and told the Yin family about it, then…
“I didn’t know that Yunqiu was the daughter of the Yin family. If I had known earlier, she wouldn’t have been with us for so many years without a status.”
Kang Ru’s eyes were red, and his voice trembled. “I’ve let Yunqiu down. Now that I’ve found my daughter, I must let her return to the Kang family and become the noblest daughter of the Kang family! Jichuan, immediately instruct the servants to welcome Eldest Miss home!”
Kang Jichuan’s eyes were flustered and guilty. Complicated emotions filled his heart.
He could understand his father’s feelings. Xi Xi was his daughter and the child his mother had left by his side. She should acknowledge her ancestors and become the noblest daughter of the Kang family. If his mother was in heaven, she would be very happy to see their family reunited.
