Chapter 179: Song Xiaoru’s Panic
"Sis, what’s wrong with you? Why do you look a bit off?" Song Xiaodong asked, puzzled, looking at Song Xiaoru.
At that moment, Song Xiaoru was struggling fiercely inside. She was contemplating whether to tell Song Xiaodong that he was actually not their parents’ biological child and that they were not biologically siblings.
She knew that Song Xiaodong had the right to know and she should let Song Xiaodong know. However, deep inside she wanted to conceal it. She feared that once Song Xiaodong knew, their sibling affection would vanish. Having relied on each other for so many years, she really didn’t want to lose this brother.
She also knew that even if Song Xiaodong found out she wasn’t his real sister, he would treat her the same. But for some reason, she feared that their relationship would change.
This fear of loss made Song Xiaoru unsure of what exactly was troubling her, but in the end, she decided not to reveal the truth, softly saying, "Nothing, I’m just tired from the day."
"Then get to bed, I’ll give you a massage, it will make you feel better in no time."
"No need, no need, we’ll do it later," Song Xiaoru said, smiling, then continued to lower her head and tidy up, saying, "Dongzi, you mentioned you’ve seen a badge like this before. Where did you see it?"
"That was in the hands of people with special identities. If this item also represents a special identity, then it should be higher than those people. But how could our family have one? Sis!" Song Xiaodong suddenly widened his eyes in shock.
"What’s wrong?" Song Xiaoru was startled and became nervous to even look at Song Xiaodong.
"Sis, you don’t suppose our parents were some big shots, and then they hid away to live a normal life?"
Song Xiaoru initially felt relief, then her expression darkened, and she said, "You really have some imagination, don’t you know what our parents are like? They were just ordinary people."
Song Xiaodong chuckled and said, "Yeah, that’s true. If our parents had been that remarkable, they wouldn’t have left us so early, sigh..."
