《You, Me》Chapter 14

The Great General Wang cups to Wan Qinxiu as thanks, “Thank you Physician Wan for saving my daughter! If not for the great idea of yours I am afraid my daughter would forever be locked up in that dark place!” After Wang Xiaomi got back, she was very sick and so it is crucial for Wan Qinxiu to remain in the Heaven Realm before heading back to Earth Realm. Wang Xiaomi was exposed to the dark energy for way too long so she fell ill. Physician Wang has been in the Great General Wang’s residence ever since he was back. He gave Wang Xiaomi the medication already she should wake up in a few days time.
Wan Qinxiu shook, “No need for formality Great General Wang. It is my duty to make sure Miss Wang is okay.” The Great General Wang’s residence held a celebration banquet for the safe return of Wang Xiaomi. Many bachelors, princes, relatives, and officials came to the banquet. The Great General Wang toast to Wan Qinxiu, “Thank you to this gentleman for saving my daughter!” They drink and toasted at the beginning.
Li Huahua and crown prince shows up at the banquet of the Great General Wang. Li Huahua grasp onto crown prince arms with pride as if she have won the lottery. ‘Sooner or later, I shall be the empress just you wait Wang Xiaomi… so what if you’re prettier? In the end that looks gave you nothing,’ Li Huahua retorted deep inside her thoughts as she passed people by.
Trailing behind them was Lan Shuixin with his rod. People always gave him a pitiful look as they see him. Such a handsome clad but cannot see no wonder no one wants to marry him. Even Li Huahua clung onto someone else’s just to get away from him. As soon as Wan Qinxiu saw Lan Shuixin enter the hall, he excused himself and head over to Lan Shuixin, “Brother Lan! You’re here!” He cups and Lan Shuixin nods back in respect.
In the middle of the conversation, someone asks, “Whose idea was it? Who saved Miss Wang?” The crowd went silent. Li Huahua smirks and reply, “Who should it be but Physician Wan.” She wanted to make Lan Shuixin looks bad.

Wan Qinxiu reply, “It is both Brother Lan’s idea but I was just carrying out the order.” He looks at Lan Shuixin’s expression and he was lost for a second. Wan Qinxiu whispers, “Do not fret, it is true. You gave me the idea so it is from you.” Lan Shuixin knew deep inside it wasn’t his idea but he kept quiet. He knew the situation they are in even though he felt bad taking half of the credit. “Thank you Brother Wan, you’re… a very good person… You are great in everything,” said Lan Shuixin. He speaks very low only the both of them can hear it.
Wang Xiaomi walks into the hall and all eyes were on her as she is so beautiful in the white cream color robe. No other beauty can compare to her in any realm. She was a little pale given that she was just cured not long ago, but her beauty does not falter. She greeted everyone and made her way to Wan Qinxiu and Lan Shuixin. Li Huahua stare in disgusts and envious. Wang Xiaomi suggested to Lan Shuixin and Wan Qinxiu, “Let’s go get some fresh air. In here is too stuffy.”
They took a stroll in the garden. All eyes were on them. Many women envied her so much for her beauty and for being next to two very handsome clad. Many talked bad about her for knowing no shame and know no boundaries between men and women. With all the gossip, Great General Wang need to shut the rumors down. He thought about it for a long time. He found the time and decided to talk to his daughter after the banquet, “Daughter… you are of age now… I think it is time you should get marry.”
Wang Xiaomi shook her head, “Father! I’m not in a hurry to get marry!” She turns away feeling troubled.
“Is there anyone… you like?” Her father asked her.
Wang Xiaomi shook, “No one father…”
“Then I am going to find marriage for you,” her father did not give her a leeway, “unless you tell me who it is that you like.”

“Father!” She exclaims widening her eyes in disbelief. She turns away and sigh, “You should know it’s embarrassing to say…” She pursed her lips pouting shyly.
“Is it Lan Shuixin? Or Physician Wan?” He asked the two possible bachelorette he had in mind as he see them around her often.
——
Wan Qinxiu found Madame Wang sitting alone in the hall with some maidservants wandering. Madame Wang welcome him in to sit and chat with her in the hall after all the guests left. She did drink a little so she had a slip up, “If only my other daughter was still alive…”
“What do you mean, Madame Wang?” Wan Qinxiu asks.
Madame Wang sighs, “It would be great if my other daughter didn’t die. If she is alive then one can be betroth to you and the other to Prince Lan Shuixin… unfortunately…” She sigh, “She is a calamity to my Mi’er so she was sent away… Last I heard she died as an infant she didn’t make it out there.”
Wan Qinxiu suddenly grew quite interested in this topic, “So… where was she sent to?”
Madame Wang thought about whether she should say or not. She looks around and order all maids to go out. After making sure no one was left, she reply, “They divined their future and they said her twin sister is a devil in disguise as human form and she will grow up to kill Ah Mi and cause havoc in the Heaven Realm and Demon Realm. We couldn’t bare to kill her so we have a nanny sent her to Earth Realm and drown her into the river. By now, she is probably dead.”
“Have you given her a name when she was born?” Wan Qinxiu asked away his question. Madame Wang nods, “If she is still alive… her name should be Wang Xiaolian.” As soon as that word was spoken, Wan Qinxiu’s smile fade and his face became colder than usual. Suddenly, the door open and stood before them was Xiaomi. She heard everything and she was devastated. She had tears in her eyes. She looks at her mother’s face. At that moment, Madame Wang’s face seem like no blood was running to her head as if she just turned pale.
“Mother!” Xiaomi exclaims in disbelief, “So I have a twin sister that you never told me?! Sister have suffered all these years because of you and father?! How could you?!” She ran away crying. Wan Qinxiu ran after her and comforts her as he caught up to her. He pulls her into his embrace. She buried her head inside his chest and started weeping. She never thought such thing can occur to her. Wan Qinxiu just rub her back and place his hand on her head to comfort her.
——
After a couple of days in Great General Wang’s Residence, Wan Qinxiu knew it was time he should leave. He should not delay it any further. He wanted to leave Heaven Realm. He didn’t care what anyone thought of him he just wanted to disappear at that moment. He was able to calm Xiaomi down and have her rethink. She calm down but stated she will find her sister no matter what. She know her sister is still alive and is determined to find her at any cost. Her father found out about the situation and told her the story. He reprimanded Madame Wang for a slip of tongue. She was punished severely he even ignored Madame Wang those few days.
Lan Shuixin sent Wan Qinxiu out of the Heaven Realm back to Mt. Gao Shan. He knew of the situation and couldn’t help it but feel sad for the missing daughter of Great General Wang, or maybe she is dead but he found Wan Qinxiu’s tone wasn’t so good. He did not ask or bother him with any questions.
