Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 834: Chapter 834: I’m the One Who’s Your Sister

"Sure, are you free?"

As her belly grew larger, Tang Yue rarely went out anymore. Even for work, it was Jin Yan and Peng Yufei who came to Jianan Prefecture to find her.

Even Tang Mingli, when he had matters, would come directly here to find her.

Although Qin Anyu said she would bring the child, as long as she stayed next door, she would come to play with her. However, Qin Anyu mostly followed Chu Hong around and was hardly at home.

And Bai Qing, who had previously said she would return to the country before the end of the year, first claimed she couldn’t because the child was too young after giving birth, and later, due to other circumstances, couldn’t return either. Hence, Bai Qing’s child was over six months old, and she hadn’t been able to meet them yet.

"I’m free." Jin Yan willingly took on the task and, after discussing work with Tang Yue, went to Southwest Road.

Southwest Road, Xincheng Computer.

Lian Qingyang had just returned from the factory. As computers were selling increasingly well, they had recouped most of their investment, and from then on, it would be pure profit. Of course, they still planned to expand the factory in the future, which would require further investment.

But even so, Lian Qingyang saw the prospects of the computer factory. As long as he managed it well, his computer factory was sure to make money.

Carrying hopes for a bright future, Lian Qingyang was just about to enter the company when he saw Lian Qingqing, whom he hadn’t seen for a long time, at the entrance.

Lian Qingqing was wearing a white dress, her face pale as paper, with dark circles under her eyes, looking like she hadn’t rested well for a long time. Even her eyes were red with veins, lacking the usual feigned tenderness and kindness, leaving only hostility and resentment.

Lian Qingyang’s heart skipped a beat. How long had it been since they last met? How did she become like this?

"Lian Qingyang," Lian Qingqing called him by his full name, her words filled with resentment. She demanded, "Did you tell Ziyue the truth about how Xu Mei died back then?"

"Xu Mei died in a car accident, what does that have to do with me?"

"Even if I’m not your biological sister, we grew up together! How could you ruin my happiness?"

Lian Qingqing, agitated, stepped forward and tightly grabbed Lian Qingyang by the collar, her eyes brimming with tears. Her questioning seemed to turn into a knife, wishing to pierce his chest.

"What are you talking about?" Lian Qingyang, unable to react for a long while, said, "I’ve never even met Xie Ziyue. What did I tell him?"

Xu Mei, Lian Qingyang finally remembered after a long while, was that poor girl who had passed away.

"If it wasn’t you, then who else?" Lian Qingqing didn’t believe Lian Qingyang’s words. Whenever she thought of Xie Ziyue’s cold face, her heart ached so much she couldn’t breathe.

She had secretly seen one of Xie Ziyue’s diaries and, during a confrontation with him, had a fall and lost the child.

Xie Ziyue, who once protected her, was also about to leave.

Lian Qingqing begged Xie Ziyue not to leave, but Xie Ziyue left without looking back.

Obviously, back in Y Country, the feelings were real. Everything was real. Why, after returning to China, did it all turn out fake?

Moreover, when they were in bed, they were obviously such a perfect match. How could it not count?

Lian Qingqing didn’t understand, yet Xie Ziyue didn’t give her any chance to explain. Ignoring her own condition, Lian Qingqing tried every means to meet Xie Ziyue, but he seemed to have vanished.

Madam Xie was extremely happy knowing Xie Ziyue was willing to leave Lian Qingqing. She prevented Lian Qingqing, no longer the Lian family’s eldest daughter, from even seeing Xie Ziyue.

Lian Qingqing waited for a month, ultimately unable to meet him. She wondered who could have revealed the matter, knowing her parents wouldn’t, assuming it must have been Lian Qingyang.

Thus, Lian Qingqing made a special trip to Jing City, where she encountered Lian Qingyang, leading to today’s scene.

"Lian Qingqing, I, Lian Qingyang, walk the righteous path and never do such petty things," Lian Qingyang said, pressing his lips together. Though Lian Qingqing was pitiful now, Xu Mei was equally pitiful back then.

He didn’t know why Lian Qingqing wanted to be friends with Xu Mei, someone who evidently valued family background. Maybe it was to enhance her reputation.

However, Xu Mei did nothing wrong yet died because of Lian Qingqing’s willfulness. Xie Ziyue wasn’t wrong in this matter.

He just hadn’t figured out how Xie Ziyue and Xu Mei were connected.

"Also, we’re not siblings anymore. When you plotted against Aunt, I no longer acknowledged you as my sister." Lian Qingyang shrugged off her hand impolitely. While in the past he considered their blood relation, now he didn’t.

Aunt lost her child saving her, and how did she repay that?

Lian Qingyang recalled this and felt an unyielding coldness in his heart.

"Lian Qingyang, I didn’t harm Aunt," Lian Qingqing explained weakly, leaning against the wall, looking as delicate as pear blossoms in rain, yet unable to move Lian Qingyang’s heart.

"Back then, it wasn’t intentional, and besides you, who else would have told?" Lian Qingqing was convinced it was Lian Qingyang who spoke.

Lian Qingyang turned and was about to leave.

"Stop!" Lian Qingqing struggled forward, lunging at Lian Qingyang’s back.

"Be careful."

Jin Yan had just brought over some clothes when she saw the scene unfold. Jin Yan pushed Lian Qingyang aside and threw the clothes in her hands onto Lian Qingqing, causing her to stagger and nearly fall.

Jin Yan held onto Lian Qingqing, ensuring she wouldn’t fall to the ground, then said, "Have you no shame, still claiming to be his sister? What kind of sister would suspect her own brother like that?"

Though Jin Yan didn’t understand everything, she got the gist.

Lian Qingyang, after being pushed by Jin Yan, stood confused for a while, looking at Jin Yan towering over Lian Qingqing, yelling. He uncertainly asked, "Are you the assistant beside Sister Xiao Yue?"

He seemed to recall there being an assistant by Sister Xiao Yue’s side.

"Yes." Jin Yan gave him a strange look, realizing he hadn’t remembered who she was, let alone her name.

Jin Yan, never having lost in appearance since childhood, never met anyone who’d forget her after seeing her, especially since they had met in F Country before, hadn’t they?

What was going on in his mind?

Jin Yan felt an urge to knock on his head.

"Thank you." Lian Qingyang picked up the clothes as if they were treasures. These were made for him by Sister Xiao Yue. Though not made by her hands, at least designed by her. Thankfully, there was a bag; otherwise, they would be dirty.

Lian Qingqing, seeing Lian Qingyang cherishing them, felt even more jealousy surge within and said, "Lian Qingyang, I’ve been your real sister all your life."

Lian Qingqing stepped forward, attempting to knock the clothes from Lian Qingyang’s hands, but he protected them like treasures.

Lian Qingqing took a deep breath, calming her agitated emotions. She tried to relax her expression and said, "Qingyang, you really misunderstood me. I didn’t harm Aunt."
