Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After asking this question, Ye Caitang’s eyes were suddenly filled with hope.
Her hands that hung by her sides could not help but tremble slightly.
Could he be the big brother who had saved her?
Qin Ruohan glanced at the photograph that Ye Caitang had just pointed at. His expression was indifferent, but an inscrutable pain flashed across his beautiful eyes.
Unfortunately, this painful glint flashed past and disappeared.
Ye Caitang did not manage to catch it.
He said lightly,
“Do you think an indifferent and cold person like me will have a deep impression of things?”
For some reason, he looked at Ye Caitang’s bright and dewy eyes and found them inexplicably familiar.
Tonight’s special sense of familiarity made Qin Ruohan’s heart palpitate inexplicably.
The corners of Ye Caitang’s lips suddenly curled up bitterly.
“Uh… Maybe it was all in my mind.”
Qin Ruohan was the young master of the Qin family.
He had been living a luxurious life since he was young and had countless bodyguards. How could he be kidnapped by human traffickers?
Ye Caitang’s heart ached inexplicably when she thought of that boy who been burned by a fire to save her; he was like a big brother to her.
She had contacted her neighbors some time ago and asked about the fire back then.
She remembered that her neighbors had said that boy had been burned beyond recognition back then.
Immediately, her eyes welled up and she felt a lump in her throat.
She must have been confused just now.
Qin Ruohan’s face was so strikingly handsome, like a god and he could sweep all living beings off their feet. How could he be the boy—her Big Brother—who had been burned beyond recognition?
Qin Ruohan looked at Ye Caitang’s disappointed face and blurted out,
“And you?”
“Is there someone very important in your life?”
“Or something that left a deep impression on you?”
Hearing this, Ye Caitang instantly recovered from her reverie.
She smiled bitterly and nodded gently.
“Yes, there is.”
“Who is it?” Qin Ruohan suddenly held his breath nervously when he heard this. His heart beat inexplicably flustered.
“Or what is it?”
Ye Caitang blinked her beautiful big eyes and said with a gentle expression and disappointment:
“My benefactor. ”
A look of disbelief instantly appeared on Qin Ruohan’s strikingly handsome face. He grabbed Ye Caitang’s wrist excitedly.
“Who is your benefactor?”
“I don’t know.” Ye Caitang shook her head with a bitter smile.
“If I knew, I wouldn’t be as distressed as I am now.’
“You don’t know?” When Qin Ruohan heard Ye Caitangs answer, the excitement in his heart suddenly seemed to have been splashed with a bucket of ice water.
His whole body turned cold.
Unwilling to give up, he asked,
“Don’t you know what your benefactor looks like?”
Although he was burned beyond recognition by the fire back then, he had undergone full-body skin graft surgeries and had never undergone plastic surgery.
The contours of his face did not change; he only restored his damaged skin. His appearance did not change.
If Ye Caitang was that lass back then, it was impossible for her not to know him.
The current him was no different from when he was young. He just looked more mature.
At the thought of this, Qin Ruohan looked at Ye Caitang’s familiar beautiful eyes expectantly.
When Ye Caitang heard Qin Ruohan’s question, she suddenly stared fixedly at Qin Ruohan’s strikingly handsome face.
If Big Brother had not been disfigured in order to save her back then, he would definitely be as handsome as Qin Ruohan.
Big Brother bore about 70 to 80% resemblance to Qin Ruohan.
At the thought of this, Ye Caitang couldn’t help but tear up. Her heart ached with guilt as she sobbed.
