"Brother Chu?"
Zhou Liangchen glanced sideways at Bai Xiao Zhao, then looked at Chu Xisheng, his expression suspicious. "Brother Chu, don't tell me you have another younger sister? A twin?"
Chu Xisheng actually had the same suspicion. The girl's features looked as though they had been cast from the same mold as his.
But he searched through his mind and found no memories whatsoever of this girl.
Before that ghost marriage, this body's surname had also been Chu.
He had been the only son of the Jingxi Chu Clan's eldest branch, with no full siblings at all.
Could she be a seed that father I inherited left behind outside the family?
No, that wasn't right either. Father Chu had been utterly devoted in love. After Mother Chu passed away, that inherited father had submitted a memorial resigning from office, then died of grief six months later, leaving the original owner all alone to be bullied and controlled, even ending up sent to accompany the dead in a ghost marriage and suffocated alive inside a coffin.
"Impossible." Chu Xisheng shook his head. "There are only two of us siblings in my family, a brother and sister. We have nothing to do with this girl."
"How could you have nothing to do with her?" Zhou Liangchen refused to believe him, his words speculative. "But you really do look alike. Or were you separated as children, so you have no memory of her? There can't possibly be two unrelated people in this world so alike in both appearance and bearing."
The corner of Chu Xisheng's mouth twitched slightly. He thought there were plenty of people who looked alike; he had seen quite a few while scrolling through short videos before.
*Besides, at a time like this, you still have the leisure to worry
