The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex

Chapter 570 - Do You Know Who Su Ye Is?



He Xiyan rubbed at her eyes that were still filled with exhaustion. She remembered having dinner here before she fell asleep.

 “What time is it now?” she asked her younger sister.

 If there was something that lifted her spirits today, it was the fact that her younger sister was finally treating her like a proper sister.

 They weren’t that distant anymore and could speak to each other like true sisters.

 “It’s already past eight, why don’t you get up first?” Shu Man asked as she lifted the covers off He Xiyam. She had specially asked her mother to prepare one more portion of dinner and it was still piping hot.

 He Xiyan got off the bed and after some sleep, she finally looked like she had a bit more energy and her face was no longer as sunken and sallow as before.

 “Man Man…” He Xiyan said as she took her sister’s hand in hers and their eyes met. They looked similar in appearance and this was especially true for their eyes.

 The childish innocence that most girls possessed could no longer be found in their eyes since they had been through many painful experiences themselves.

 “Sister, what do you want to say?” Shu Man asked with a smile as she looked at her sister in confusion.

 He Xiyan retracted her hand and smiled genuinely at her sister. Then, she took off the necklace that she had been wearing when she left the castle. A jade pendant hung from it and this was a necklace that she had been wearing for more than 20 years.

 She clasped this necklace around her sister’s neck.

 “Man Man, this is for you,” He Xiyan said softly and gently patted her sister’s shoulder. She had finally fulfilled her wish that she had held for many years by finding her sister.

 Shu Man looked at the small pendant that hung from her neck. She remembered her sister telling her that she had a jade pendant that was exactly that same when she was younger but she had no recollection of wearing such a thing.

 “Are you sure that I had the exact same pendant?” Shu Man asked in surprise since she truly had no recollection of it. She had even received a strange platinum necklace the other day and the person who had given it to her even claimed that it belonged to her, but she had no recollection of that either.

 The recent string of strange events left her feeling completely befuddled.

 He Xiyan nodded and said a little sadly. “Yes, Man Man. You had the exact same jade pendant. Our mother said that she had bought two of the exact same jade pendants, one for each of us.”

 “Do you know who Su Ye is?” Shu Man asked as she bit her lip. She felt very confused and bewildered when she mentioned his name because she couldn’t remember ever having met that man.

 He Xiyan froze for a moment and she seemed a little confused as she looked at her sister. She was surprised that her sister would bring him up.

 “Which Su Ye?” she asked uncertainly as though she wasn’t sure if the Su Ye her sister was talking about was the same famous Young Master Su who was known by everyone.

 “The young master of the Su family, the boss of that technology firm,” Shu Man said with a frown. She had been very confused these few days. Young Master Su had tried to ask her out but she had ignored him.

 He Xiyan didn’t understand why her sister would suddenly bring him up. She knew who Su Ye was but she wasn’t that close to him.

 “What’s wrong? Did he come looking for you?” He Xiyan asked as she grew even more confused.

 Shu Man nodded. “Yes, he tried to ask me out but I didn’t go in the end. Strangely, he even gifted me a villa the other day and this villa is located in the best location along the Naam River district and is worth almost close to 300 million dollars. I don’t understand why he’d do such a thing. Could he be our long-lost brother?”
