Chapter 618: Siblings Talk Heart to Heart

Xia Chuyi looked at Ou Jun’s complexion and after thinking for a while, she couldn’t help but ask, "Brother Ou, you... is it that your relationship with ’Ou Jiao’ hasn’t improved yet?"

Upon hearing her question, Ou Jun was momentarily stunned, then slightly puzzled, "You know?"

Xia Chuyi felt somewhat embarrassed and said, "Well, Shuqin mentioned it to me."

She wasn’t being nosy, she just wanted to show some concern for him, especially since her few interactions with Ou Jun had left her with a pretty good impression of him.

"Shuqin? The Jiang Family’s child, Jiang Shuqin?" Ou Jun’s expression showed not a hint of anger, as though he couldn’t be mad at Xia Chuyi.

Ou Jun nodded, saying, "Yes, I know this child, Xiao Cong is quite close to her."

Close?

Xia Chuyi thought to herself: It’s more than that, it’s extremely "close."

Ou Jun sighed and said, "Chuyi, Brother Ou won’t hide it from you, indeed, there have been some issues between Jiao Jiao and me."

For some reason, Ou Jun always felt that there was something about Xia Chuyi that made him want to get close to her.

Hence, somewhat unconsciously, he wanted to share with Xia Chuyi the conflicts he had with his sister, "Ou Jiao."

Ou Jun continued, "Before finding Jiao Jiao, I always thought that if I found my sister, I would be very good to her and make her the happiest princess in the world."

"But over the years, my father and I have made many mistakes in our search..."

At this point, Ou Jun couldn’t help but sigh and said, "Therefore, after finding Jiao Jiao this time, I didn’t confirm her identity right away."

Ou Jun shook his head, continuing, "Perhaps it was because of too many ’cries of wolf,’ when I only saw the swaddling clothes, I still had doubts."

"Could it be possible that the swaddling clothes from that year were just coincidentally used by the human traffickers for ’her’? That’s what I thought."

"So, at that time, I believed that to confirm ’Jiao Jiao’s’ identity, I had to find someone who knew her foster mother and find out the circumstances of her buying the child."

"But perhaps too much time had passed, and it was impossible to find anyone from back then right away."

Ou Jun shook his head again, saying, "It was my incompetency."

"If it hadn’t been for my mom seeing ’Jiao Jiao,’ I might have..."

Not confirmed "Jiao Jiao’s" identity for a while.

"Mrs. Ou has seen ’Ou Jiao’ already?" Xia Chuyi was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

Wasn’t it said that to avoid upsetting Mrs. Ou, she shouldn’t meet Ou Jiao?

Seeing her confusion, Ou Jun didn’t conceal anything and nodded, saying, "Yes, ’Jiaojiao’ secretly visited mother at the hospital."

"It was because of her appearance that my mom had another episode at the hospital."

"Lady had another episode?" Xia Chuyi immediately asked with concern.

When she visited Mrs. Ou, Mrs. Ou was fine.

But on the other hand, even just seeing someone of Xia Chuyi’s age, who resembled "Ou Jiao," had excited Mrs. Ou so much.

It was completely foreseeable that seeing the real "Ou Jiao" would cause such a stimulus and result in illness.

Ou Jun nodded, continuing, "Yes, it was for this reason that later on, father made up his mind to temporarily separate mother and ’Jiao Jiao.’"

Ou Jun spoke with deep emotion.

Hearing this, Xia Chuyi hastily asked Ou Jun, "So Mrs. Ou is alright now, has her health improved?"

Although Jiang Shuqin knew some details, certainly she didn’t have as much information as Ou Jun.
