A short night is hard to please! A stunningly handsome prince dotes on her exclusively.

Chapter 247 I'm sorry, General Xin

"You...what did you say?"

Xin Moyan's eyes widened, and she felt as if she had been struck by lightning, a chill running down her spine.

Seeing her stunned reaction, Xin Moling sighed again, a bitter smile playing on her lips.

“Yan’er is someone I’ve cherished since she was little. How could I, as her older brother, not know how she has changed? Even if millions of people in this world can’t recognize Yan’er’s true face, I can’t fail to recognize her. The day you fell into the water and woke up, the first thing you said was that you didn’t recognize me and you cried and said that you weren’t my sister. I knew in my heart that you were not the Xin Mo Yan of the past.”

Xin Moyan stared wide-eyed at the brother in front of her, who was always so gentle with her.

So... he knew from the very beginning.

"Brother..." she called out halfway, her nose tingling with pain, tears welling up in her eyes, and she dared not continue calling him brother.

"I'm sorry, General Xin... General Xin." Before she could finish speaking, Xin Moyan's tears flowed like a burst dam, her vision completely blurring. Her brother had become General Xin...

Xin Moling was slightly taken aback, then took out a handkerchief from her bosom and carefully wiped away her tears. Her trembling voice revealed a hint of both laughter and tears.

"Yan'er, are you planning to disown me as your brother?"

She was still in a daze, only sobbing as she said, "I...I didn't expect...that you knew all along, so why...why didn't you expose...my true colors? I lied to you, I'm so sorry, sob sob sob~~~"

"Yan'er, don't cry, I'm not blaming you."

Xin Moyan couldn't hear a word at this moment; her mind was filled with the thought: "I know you're not the Xin Moyan you used to be."

So, did her brother already know her true identity? Now that she's revealed it, does it mean she'll never have a brother again? Or that her brother... no, General Xin will hate her?

General Xin...

How did he become General Xin?

"General Xin, waaaaah~" The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Xin Moyan covered her face with her hands and burst into tears, which spilled out from between her fingers like a dam had been opened.

"Yan'er, please don't cry."

Xin Moling felt sorry for her and quickly put his arm around her, gently patting her back and coaxing her in a soft voice, "Yan'er, don't cry. I don't mean to blame you. You're not allowed to call him General Xin. It sounds absurd."

She cried for a while before looking up with swollen eyes and asking, "You...you don't blame me?"

"When did I say I blamed you? Besides, I already knew everything back then. If I blamed you, would I have treated you like this all this time?"

Xin Moyan gradually stopped crying, her eyes filled with confusion. "But why didn't you expose me? And... and all this time, you've been so good to me?"

Under the moonlight, his eyes shone brightly, his brows were as gentle as a breeze and the bright moon, and he had a tender smile on his face. He held Xin Moyan's cheeks in his hands and spoke with unusual seriousness.

"Because...you're my sister too!"

Xin Moyan tried to shake her head, but he used some force to turn her head back, stared into her eyes, and said the truth word by word.

"Yan'er, I've never treated you like anyone else. You're my own sister, of course..."

He paused, his eyes darkening, before continuing, "Of course, Yan'er from before was also my own sister. I have never forgotten that girl. Both of you are my sisters."

"Brother, what do you mean by that?"

The word "brother" slipped out unconsciously, and Xin Moyan didn't care about anything else, only finding his explanation unbelievable.

He put one arm around Xin Moyan's shoulder, turned his head to look at the dark night in the distance, and some distant memories suddenly surfaced.

“Yan’er, didn’t Xie Cangming tell you that shortly after you were born, he and his master visited the manor and he even held you in his arms?”

"Yes, I remember, Uncle Xie also said that this ring belonged to Mother. Brother, I... I'll give it back to you!"

As she spoke, she made a move to take off the ring on her pinky finger, but Xin Moling quickly stopped her.

"Yan'er, let your brother finish speaking."

"Oh!"

“He was only thirteen or fourteen years old at the time, and after meeting you, he immediately foretold your future fate.”

"A sign?"

“Yes!” He nodded. “I was young then, but I remember him telling my mother that Yan’er would face a great calamity when she turned eighteen. It would be extremely dangerous. If she survived, she would be extraordinary in the future, and I would have another little sister. If she was unlucky… he told me to cherish Yan’er for the next eighteen years.”

"Brother, what do you mean you have another little sister? Didn't you say Uncle Xie came with his master? How come it was Uncle who made the prediction? Uncle is only a teenager, how could he tell fortunes?"

"Hehe~ Don't underestimate Xie Cangming. Even I can't see through his true colors."

He pondered for a moment, then continued, "He also told me that I would have two younger sisters in the future. I was only five years old at the time and did not understand what it meant. I was hoping that maybe my mother would give me another younger sister in the future. Later, my parents passed away one after another, and we went to the palace to live with the princes. I gradually forgot about it."

"Xie Cangming entered the court as the Grand Preceptor ten years ago, but he pretended not to know us at that time. I didn't take it seriously and never formally dealt with you with him. Until half a year ago, when I was on the frontier, I dreamed of my mother one night. She told me to take good care of you. Only then did I suddenly remember Xie Cangming's prophecy. It turned out that Yan'er was eighteen years old this year. I dared not delay and made a quick decision to return to the court. Who knew that Yan'er would have an accident on the night of our return to the capital."

"So the dangerous accident Uncle Xie mentioned refers to the incident of falling into the water that night."

"Well, Yan'er doesn't know, but you actually died that night."

"Dead? Brother, you mean...you mean I was already dead at that time?"

Xin Moyan's tone unconsciously rose considerably, as if she was quite frightened by the truth and had also put herself in the original owner's shoes.

"Yes, I took you and begged Xie Cangming for a long time before he agreed to save you. I don't know what method he used, but in any case, Yan'er did come back to life."

"So, what happened next was everything that happened when I woke up?"

"Correct."

"So, Uncle Xie had already foreseen that I would come into this world and become your sister?"

Xin Moling relaxed his furrowed brows and took a sip of wine. "Later, I also realized some things. My little sister Yan'er, whom I had loved for eighteen years, died in my arms on that very day."

His voice was choked with emotion, “Yan’er, you are also my sister. According to Xie Cangming, it was a wisp of Yan’er’s soul that went to another world eighteen years ago. You were originally Xin Moyan, and you and my Yan’er were originally one.”
