Xiao Huizi and He Xiaoer

Chapter 163 Du Yueqiu's Family Background

It was a beautiful night, and the three sisters were lying in bed chatting. Every night they would chat for an hour or two, chattering non-stop, and the happy voices floated in the room again.

While chatting, Du Yueqiu suddenly said: "Huihui, I will be back in two days. There is an important family meeting on the 21st. The next head of the family will be officially determined on that day. I must go back. But..."

"If I officially become the heir, I may not be so free in the future. I must always put the interests of the family first."

This is a good thing, but there is a sense of loss in her tone. Xu Zhihui and Li Xiangling also felt depressed as she spoke, as if something was pulling them and making them feel uncomfortable.

"Oh! Not so free?" Xu Zhihui hugged her tightly in the bed and leaned on her arms. "Can Xiangxiang and I come over to see you?"

"Of course, you're very welcome." Du Yueqiu smiled.

Although they had known each other for many years and had a very good relationship, Xu Zhihui did not know much about many things about Du Yueqiu, such as her background and past experiences.

Until now, Du Yueqiu never brought it up on his own initiative, and Xu Zhihui and Li Xiangling would not take the initiative to ask about it.

All I know is that Du Yueqiu's parents are gone, and she has lived with her grandmother since she was a child. When she grew up, she left her grandmother and lived alone in the capital. She used to live in Lingyue Villa, the old manor of the Order family.

It can be said that she was lonely before.

After meeting Xu Zhihui and Li Xiangling, she moved to the Peking University dormitory and rarely returned to Lingyue Villa, so she could often be with Xu Zhihui and Li Xiangling.

Her grandmother would come to the capital to visit her regularly.

"Qiuqiu, are you not willing to be the heir?" Xu Zhihui said what she was thinking, "Is it grandma who wants you to be the heir of the family?"

"Yes and no. Although this is my grandmother's wish, I am willing to listen to her. She agreed to the inheritance a long time ago. I didn't care before. But..."

Du Yueqiu sighed and said slowly, "I used to like to be alone and didn't like to socialize with others or make friends until I met you. If I were given a choice now, I would choose not to be an heir, but I promised grandma that I can't break my promise."

"Well, yes, I understand you. I am also an orphan, and I grew up in the An family. I have been blessed by Grandpa An and the An family since I was young." Li Xiangling sighed, "Your grandmother is old now, and she must want you to go back and accompany her."

The three sisters snuggled together.

Among the three sisters, Xu Zhihui has both parents. Compared with them, Xu Zhihui feels that she is too lucky.

She hugged Du Yueqiu tighter and said, "It's okay. We will always be sisters. If it's inconvenient for you, Xiangxiang and I will come to see you often."

"thank you all."

The sisters stopped talking, the voices ceased, and the room was filled with silence, as if the only sound one could hear was the sound of moonlight walking on the wall through the glass.

When she was about to fall asleep, Du Yueqiu spoke again: "Are you curious about why my grandma is a foreigner?"

"Well, we are a little curious." Xu Zhihui and Li Xiangling replied.

"Actually, she's not my real grandmother."

Du Yueqiu's words were expected, but the two sisters didn't want this to be true at all. It sounded sad.

"She's my step-grandmother...my step-mother's mother."

Xu Zhihui and Li Xiangling did not say anything and just listened quietly.

Du Yueqiu continued, "My mother died unexpectedly when I was two years old. About two years later, my father married a foreign woman, who was my stepmother. She was the owner of Lingyue Villa. I was five years old at that time. In my memory, my stepmother treated me very well, just like her own daughter. So I always called her mother."

"When I was little, I didn't know how distinguished and mysterious my mother's background was. I lived a peaceful and stable life for five or six years. During that time, my grandmother came to visit me many times. Knowing the existence of my step-grandson, she treated me very well, probably because she loved me as much as I loved her."

"It wasn't long before my father and mother died unexpectedly when I was 10 years old. My grandmother was very sad about her daughter's death. I knew it was not an accident and someone must have murdered her, but my grandmother didn't tell me anything."

"Since then, I have been living with my grandmother. She gave me the name Luna. When I was 20 years old, I asked her to let me come back here to have a look. This is where my father lives. I promised her that I would go back in three years. In the end, she tolerated my stay for five years."

"My grandmother put all her love for her daughter on me and always wanted to train me to be the heir of the family. She said that only I was qualified to be the future leader of the Order Family, and none of her sons were qualified. Although sometimes I felt depressed and thought about rebelling against her. But my mother and grandmother raised me to adulthood, how could I let my grandmother down?"

"My grandmother is a very powerful and strict person, with a high status and power in the family. No one dares to question or disobey her, at least in public. My grandmother's son and her grandchildren have always been secretly against me, thinking that I am an outsider. When my grandmother had absolute say, they did not dare to oppose openly."

"Now that she's older, some people are starting to disobey her. More and more people are questioning and challenging her, hoping that she'll be gone one day so they can kick me out. So, I have to make sure I'm the heir to the family and not let my grandmother down."

After Du Yueqiu finished telling this story of his family history, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The two sisters were silent for a moment, and Xu Zhihui asked worriedly, "Will it be dangerous for you to go back now?"

"No, most people are still on my side." Du Yueqiu said firmly, "Besides, no one has the courage to do this under grandma's nose. If they really want to do something harmful to me, they can only wait for the opportunity."

"That's good." Xu Zhihui felt relieved.

Li Xiangling said: "Qiuqiu, I will go back with you and see if I can help."

"Xiang, thank you, but that's not necessary." Du Yueqiu shook his head and said, "It won't help, and it will give them the opportunity to attack."

"Yeah, that's right." Li Xiangling sighed, "How I wish I could help you."

Du Yueqiu said: "Your silent support is already helping."

The sisters cuddled closer together, silence was stronger than words, and the room fell into silence. Gradually, they felt drowsy and fell asleep in a daze.

The shadow of the moonlight on the wall seemed to fluctuate a few times, and the tranquility was broken by something, like a stone thrown into the lake.

More than a dozen black shadows appeared in the air, spreading their long wings, like duckweed floating in the air. The bright moonlight reflected on the walls of the building, creating a dozen more spots.

One of the black shadows waved his hand, and a dozen black shadows whooshed and shot like arrows, all nailing into a window of the building, as if they were sucked over by a powerful vortex.

In a flash, black shadows fell from the sky one after another, like a flock of birds hitting an invisible electric net. As they fell, their shapes dissipated and soon dissipated in the air.

I saw a window open and a woman walked out, stepping on the air.

Han Jinfeng looked at the black shadow at the head, which was a huge and ugly bird, but more like a black bat. She had killed the dozen moth monsters that had swooped over just now, leaving only this one.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the black shadow turned and ran away.

Han Jinfeng didn't chase him either.

Watching the black shadow being slapped to pieces by Qingluan who suddenly appeared.

Ran Xiaoque came up to Han Jinfeng with a smile and said, "Teacher, that guy is really weak. He was shattered to pieces with just one slap."

"Yes," Han Jinfeng nodded, "Like a moth flying into a flame, it is self-destruction. I just don't know who these people are targeting or who sent them."
