Chapter 249: Too many identities

Chapter 249: Too many identities

Nana froze. She recognized the large and warm hand. She slowly raised her head to look into those familiar black orbs. The pen fell from her grip. She felt as if she imagined Jinhai’s presence. But her that name he uttered from his sweet, husky voice proved that it wasn’t a dream.

“Nana. You don’t need to do this anymore.” He smiled.

She tried hard to contain her tears but failed to do so. She didn’t care how he came to be here or did he know everything. She jumped in his embrace and finally broke down in loud sobs.

Jinhai tightly hugged her and combed her hair through his fingers to soothe her. Nana wailed like a little child, and she drowned his shirt wet in tears. All this time, she was fighting this battle alone, and now she was exhausted.

“Ssshhh…it is over now. Sorry, I am a little late. And you did well hanging in there. I’m proud of my little wife.”

Nana cried harder. “You are late! Y-you are bad!” She spoke in muffled sobs, her face buried in his chest.

“En. I’m bad. Will you forgive me, please?”

“No. What if-” she was gasping and sniffling, “what if I had signed on those divorce papers?”

Jinhai smiled. He raised her head, but she protested. “Don’t look at me now. I have become all ugly by crying.”

He chuckled. “You are always beautiful to me, my dear wife even if you cry or are fat-“

“Am I fat?”

“No.” He instantly said. His survival instinct automatically answered like a conditioned reflex. Not that she was fat anyway. “I meant even if you become fat one day I will-“

“Why will I become fat one day?”

“Never.” He regretted initiating that topic. He forgot that a woman’s body is a sensitive issue for her. “It is just a hypothetical scenario to tell you that I will always love you. Coming back to if you had signed the papers,” He swiftly diverted the topic before she grabbed the pen to divorce him for real, “I would have married you again.”

He lifted her head and sealed her lips in a kiss.

The twins turned red, witnessing the scene. The Liu family guards turned their heads in the other direction without a single expression on their faces. But, internally, they were squealing in laughter.

‘Boss doesn’t care about any audience.’

“Ah, so lovey-dovey. I want a wife too.’

‘Heh! Have you seen your face in the mirror? Which girl would fall for you?’

‘Shut up!’

They had already subdued Huo Xiao Fan’s men and were waiting for the next orders. Her men were lying in a pathetic state.

Jinhai slowly broke the kiss. Nana asked in a soft voice, “How are you here?”

“Well, my wife was supposed to be resting in the hospital, but somehow I found the bed empty.”

Nana’s bit her lower lip, looking guilty. “Sorry for leaving out of the blue like that. I must have made you worried.”

“Indeed.”

“I’m sorry. But…do you know-” Suddenly, somebody’s loud, booming voice cut her off mid-sentence.

“Yukito, my love! Where are you?”

Jing barged in the warehouse, practically pushing the guards. He looked annoyed and shot a glare at them. “Shoo! Don’t stand in my way, stupid guards.”

The guards internally twitched their eyebrows.

Jing saw the twins standing aside. He dashed towards Yukito, grabbed his face, and pressed his lips on his.

Silence.

Dead silence.

Yukito widened his eyes in shock. He was about to scold Jing, but then he saw his worrisome expression mixed with the sense of relief in it of finding him. His heart softened, and he didn’t resist anymore.

Yukira’s eyeballs popped out just like the guards.

My twin brother…kissing a man…kissing Liu Jing?

Our second young master…kissing a boy…kissing Lady Liu’s brother?

!!!

My brother is gay!!?

Our second young master is gay!!?

On the other side, Nana’s condition was not any better either. Jinhai had a poker expression all along. This wasn’t anything surprising to him.

Nana gaped at them with her mouth opened in an ‘O’. She was continuously blinking her eyes.

Her brother and brother-in-law…her brother-in-law and her brother…together…

It wasn’t like she was against gay relationships, but she never thought that one of her younger brothers would like men. And that too Yukito who had dated a girl in the past although they broke up later.

‘What was her name…? Yeah! Su Daiyu!’

So, it was natural to think that he was straight. She looked at Jinhai, dumbfounded. “T-they…”

Jinhai sighed. “That is a long story.”

“You knew!?”

“Yes.”

She pursed her lips as she felt wronged for being kept in the dark.

“Yu-Yukito…”

Her voice broke the trance, and Yukito suddenly realized everybody’s presence. It would have come as too shocking for Nana. He gently pushed Jing away and broke the kiss. Jing pouted.

“That was too short…” He whined.

Yukito coughed. “Everyone is here.”

Jing looked at Nana and beamed. “Sister-in-law!” He hugged her. “Do you know how worried we were when you disappeared from the hospital? Bro had even threatened the authorities that he would shut it down.”

Nana shot a glance at him.

‘The hospital wasn’t at fault.’ Her gaze said.

Jinhai cleared his throat.

“Now, you don’t worry about a thing! We have brought all the perpetrators here to give you justice.”

Nana knew this was not the time to talk about Yukito and Jing’s relationship. Now, they had to face their enemy finally and end this.

Jinhai said to the guards, “Bring them in.”

They nodded. Nana saw two familiar figures coming in. She was confused.

“Serena? Jianyu?”

Then came another woman walking between two guards. She didn’t recognize her, but then her face came in full view. And Nana was stunned.

The woman looked awfully similar to her. Nana felt like if the woman were of her age, she would exactly look like how Nana looked now.

‘Is she…’

Even the twins and Jianyu were bewildered with the striking similarity.

Jianyu frowned. “Bro, why did you bring us here?”

Serena was close to having a panic attack after she saw Huo Xiao Fan.

‘Over…it’s all over…’

She had a bad feeling rising in the pit of her belly.

Jinhai glanced at him. “You will soon know. Wait.”

He smiled. “Welcome, Mrs. Huo Xiao Fan.”

Huo Xiao Fan glared at him. Jing broke in Huo villa with the Liu family guards and dragged her out of there.

“I hope Jing wasn’t very forceful. After all, you are an elder, and he might have hurt you in too much excitement. He is still young, so please forgive him.”

Jing protested, “I was very polite!”

Jianyu said, “Mrs. Huo…Are you Huo Shen’s wife?”

Jing said, “Yes.”

She said nothing.

Nana had guessed it right. She was unsure what to feel, seeing her biological mother in front of her.

The twins looked at her with complicated emotions. They loved Nana, and because of this woman, she was born. But, they also resented her for having an affair with Yu Tengfei. He betrayed their mother because of this woman.

Huo Xiao Fan snorted. “Why would you be polite after what I did to your wife?”

“Only because you look like my wife. So, I spared the harshness.” His gaze was cruel.

Huo Xiao Fan asked, “How did you come to know about me? I’m sure Nana wouldn’t have said anything.”

“That is right. But we can talk about that later. First, I think my wife needs some answers.”

Nana looked at her and stepped forward. She finally asked the question behind all her misery. “Why did you do all this? What was your motive?”

Jianyu asked, “Did what?”

The twins chimed in. “Yeah, what is happening?”

Jinhai answered them. “She was threatening Nana to divorce me; otherwise, she would kill me.”

Jianyu was shocked. “What? But why?”

“That is the question for you, isn’t it Mrs. Huo?” He smiled.

“…And Serena.”

She froze.

Nana asked, “Huh?”

“Yes, Mrs. Huo AND Serena. We should ask this question to both of them.”

Jianyu said, “I don’t understand. What does Serena have to do with this situation?”

Panic was rising within Serena. Her forehead was covered with sweat, and her hands were trembling a little.

“Why don’t you ask your girlfriend?”

“You know about us?”

“I knew it from the beginning.”

Jinhai looked at Serena and tilted his head. “So, Serena. Why don’t you tell us something about you? You must know why I brought you and Mrs. Huo, your mother, here right?”

Nana, Jianyu, and the twins were shell shocked.

“Mother!?” All three exclaimed simultaneously.

Serena was silent.

“Why are you so quiet, Serena? Oh, my apologies. I’m not calling you quite correctly.”

He smiled. “But then it’s confusing as to which is your real name. Let me ask you, and you clear my misunderstanding.”

Serena slowly looked up at Jinhai.

Jinhai smirked. “Serena?”

Silence.

“Huo Zhilan?”

Silence.

“Or is it Yu Zhilan?”
