Chapter 906: Looks alike
Jing Yunzhao’s hand was so cold that it made Xu Yuanze’s heart skip a beat. Xu Yuanze looked at her face, which looked so much like his sister’s, and he felt his heart ache.
To him, his sister, Xu Xianlan, was the most important woman in the world. He had seen many people who looked similar to his sister, but none of them were as similar as the one in front of him. In terms of appearance, they were probably 60 – 70% similar. The only difference was their temperament.
Xian Lan was just like her name. She was like a quiet orchid and had an amiable temperament. The girl in front of him was very cold. Even though she was smiling gently at this moment, he could still feel a chill through her bottomless eyes. It was an innate coldness.
He had always been a good judge of character. He could almost confirm at first glance that this girl looked young, but she was definitely not a simple character.
“Mayor Xu seemed very excited just now. I look like your sister, right?”Jing Yunzhao said.
This Xu Yuanze looked rather friendly, and he was probably suspicious of her motives. However, when faced with this face, he lost his sense of propriety. It was just as Xu Xingyuan and Li Shaoyun had said, he loved his sister more than his life.
Xu Xianlan was truly a blessed woman.
“How did you know? It seems that Chairman Jing knows me very well.” Xu Yuanze clenched his fists tightly.
“Of course, Uncle Yuan often talks to me about you.”Jing Yunzhao did not hide anything.
Hearing this, Xu Yuanze tensed up and looked at her in surprise.””You… Who is it?”
“Mayor Xu, you seem to be a little too nervous. I’m not a bad person who has any ulterior motives for you. I’m just curious about the Xu family. Let’s put it this way. I’m from Huaning County.”Jing Yunzhao said.
“Then you know Xu Jingzhi?” Xu Yuanze asked.
“That’s right. Elder Xu is considered half my pharmaceutical mentor.”Jing Yunzhao answered obediently.
This time, Xu Yuanze was even more surprised. He knew his father’s temper very well. Back then, because he had secretly helped Xian Lan leave the capital, causing her to be in trouble, the old man had hated him and his second brother for many years. For many years, he had not only ignored him, but also his own grandson.
Her father doted on Qian Lan the most. The three of them had all learned how to make medicine at first, but in the end, the one who really inherited the Xu family’s pharmaceutical skills was her sister. However, after she got into an accident, her father had also said that even if the Xu family’s pharmaceutical skills were completely cut off, they would never pass it on to their two families.
He thought that Xu Xingyuan would be the one to inherit the Xu family, but he didn’t expect a girl who looked so similar to Xianlan to come.
However, he did heave a sigh of relief.”Is this your relationship with the old master? You were born in Huaning County…Miss Jing, may I ask, who are your parents?”
Jing Yunzhao secretly raised her eyebrows. As expected, Xu Yuanze still had to ask.
“Parents unknown.” Jing Yunzhao added,””But Mayor Xu, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. Elder Xu has also asked about this, but the result was negative. Uncle Xingyuan also said that the man who was with your sister had never admitted that he had a daughter, so…”
“Is that so?” Xu Yuanze said lightly.
There was a saying called self-deception.
Perhaps the old man was just numbing himself. After all, since this girl said that her parents were unknown, it meant that she did not live with her mother. Then, the possibility of Xian Lan dying was even greater. Of course, the father was unwilling to admit it.
