Chapter 462: She Is Exactly Like Dai'er

All in all, Shen Qingdai had been a rich, pampered lady ever since she was born. She was once a useless person who couldn’t even practice fighting. She continued to be protected by others even though her parents were dead. Therefore, it was natural that she would never have come across those who praised the strong and stepped on the weak to rise the ranks or those who were full of schemes and secret plots up their sleeves.
Shen Qingdai had been weak and pure like an innocent child. Everything was always plainly written on her face, so Tu Xiupei had to learn to look pure and innocent as well.
Xi Jin retracted his hand. “I am sorry, Dai’er. I couldn’t help you get back your Cinnabar field.” The real Dai’er would never let him touch her. She would say that Brother Ying would get angry.
“Brother Jin, I am Pei’er.” Tu Xiupei frowned. She didn’t like that he always called her Dai’er, even though that was the identity that let her get closer to him. She really detested the feeling of being a substitute. “Besides, where did Brother Jin go and try to retrieve my Cinnabar field?”
Xi Jin explained to her gently. His warm eyes searched her face. “You lost your Cinnabar field so only a blood-related Cinnabar field can be used to fuse with your body again. So, I went to look for Feng Tianlan to ask for her Cinnabar field. You saved her life; she should return the favor. But she refused to give it, so I am unable to retrieve it for you.”
“Brother Jin!” Tu Xiupei suddenly turned pale and she looked at him as if it was his fault. “How could you…”
Couldn’t the Supremacy from the Xuantian Continent be more domineering? How could he just let the matter go just because Feng Tianlan refused to yield to him? As the Supremacy, he should just take her Cinnabar field without asking, since Feng Tianlan was not powerful enough to be able to oppose him.
Such useless trash… No wonder Shen Qingdai didn’t like him in the past.
“She said that she destroyed your Cinnabar field even before the incident out at sea.” Xi Jin looked straight into Tu Xiupei’s eyes. He examined every expression and every action, not letting any of her reactions slip by unnoticed.

Tu Xiupei was surprised. She almost revealed her secret to him. But under the stony gaze of Xi Jin, she lowered her head and grabbed her left index finger with her right hand. “I am sorry, Brother Jin. I lied to you.”
She didn’t expect Feng Tianlan to confess the matter to him. She really wasn’t scared of Brother Jin at all. She needed to come up with a good excuse. Brother Jin mustn’t suspect her even the slightest bit.
Xi Jin lowered his head and became preoccupied with Tu Xiupei’s fidgeting. He remembered that Dai’er used to grab her left index finger with her right hand as well when she was admitting a mistake. She always did that whenever she was admitting her mistake, became anxious, acting like a spoiled child. It was one of her habits since she was young.
“That day when Brother Jin was asking me about my Cinnabar field, I was afraid that Brother Jin might kill Eldest Sister, so I lied. But actually, that day when we were almost assassinated out at sea, I…” Tu Xiupei let go of her left hand in grief and then grabbed it again. She raised her head and forced a smile at him. “I couldn’t save Eldest Sister. I even fell into the ocean. It’s all my fault.”
Shen Qingdai had always preferred peace. She didn’t like to trouble others and she often suffered by herself when she was wronged.
Xi Jin kept on looking at her. Her actions were indeed just like Dai’er’s, even her expressions were similar. All these were Dai’er’s habits. However, when he thought about what Feng Tianlan had said, he couldn’t help but continue to suspect her.
“I will ensure that justice is done for you regarding this matter. Rest well.” Xi Jin reached out his hands and touched her hair. He then turned around and left.
All these reactions were obviously Dai’er’s habits. Why did he still have doubts about her? He needed to cool down. He mustn’t conclude her identity as Dai’er because he was anxious to find her, nor should he deny her as Dai’er just because of one other person’s testimony.
