“Exactly the same?”
Chu Anqing’s eyes widened in disbelief.
She stretched out her index finger and gently rubbed the mole at the corner of her left eye.
“This one, is exactly the same too…”
She truly couldn’t believe it.
Could there really be such magical occurrences in this world?
Even identical twins wouldn’t look exactly the same!
What’s more, from what this uncle implied, their daughter had passed away over twenty years ago.
This…
What on earth was going on?
She turned her head to look at Lin Xian.
But she discovered that at this moment, Senior Lin Xian, who knew everything and was capable of anything, was also silent with a solemn expression on his face.

Lin Xian’s silence, of course, wasn’t because he was as shocked as Chu Anqing.
This wasn’t the first time he had encountered such a thing; it was far less shocking than the first time he saw Chu Anqing and CC looking exactly the same.
Since the first time he met CC in the Dream World, more than a year had passed in the real world.
However, even after such a long time, there were still no answers to the question of why CC and Chu Anqing looked exactly alike, not even a trace of a clue.
But now.
The daughter of the middle-aged couple in front of him, nicknamed Qian Qian, also bore an uncanny resemblance to Chu Anqing, almost as if she were a copy and paste!
Lin Xian felt that this definitely wasn’t a coincidence or mere chance.
One or two could be overlooked.
But if in different eras, there appeared three girls who were carved from the same mould, that certainly indicated a serious problem!
Perhaps.
Some tremendous truth and secrets lay hidden among them!
“May I…
could I see a photograph of your daughter?”
Upon hearing this request.
The elderly grandmother, who had just managed to steady her emotions, burst into tears once again.
The crowded Xidan Intersection was now completely blocked by onlookers, to the point that even police officers had come to disperse the crowd.
The middle-aged man wearing glasses sighed, shook his head, and waved his hand in resignation to Lin Xian:
“I’m sorry, but I’ve thrown away all traces of my daughter over the years…
to keep my wife from reminiscing and getting sad, yet I never expected she would end up having a mental breakdown.”
“I’m truly sorry, but my daughter has been dead for over twenty years.
I don’t want to talk about it anymore.
Sorry, sorry…”
The middle-aged man bowed his head and bent over to apologize to Lin Xian again, then helped the weeping grandmother through the crowd and walked away.
The commotion came to a close.
Just in time, the pedestrian red light at the intersection turned green, and the impassable crowd began to move again, bustling as before, with the liveliness and excitement of the New Year restored to its original state.
“Lin Xian.”
At that moment, VV’s voice came through the Bluetooth earpiece in his ear:
“I’ve gathered some information about this elderly couple.
Find a way to divert Chu Anqing so we can discuss.”
Lin Xian nodded slightly, then looked down at Chu Anqing:
“Are you alright?
You weren’t scared, were you?”
Chu Anqing came back to her senses from her messy thoughts, shook her head blankly:
“No…
that didn’t scare me.”
“I was indeed startled at first, but then I realized, that grandmother really had no ill intentions.
She probably just misses her deceased daughter so much that she hasn’t been able to move on all these years.”
She looked up:
“Is it really possible for there to be two people in the world who are completely identical in both body and appearance?
I mean…
𝘯𝗈𝘷𝘨𝘰.co
I can understand if someone just looks similar, or even the likeness of twins, I can understand that.
But a mole, like this…
It shouldn’t be related to genetics, right?
Isn’t this supposed to be an acquired skin mutation?
For even this mole to be exactly the same, that’s just too…”
Suddenly.
She had a sudden realization and looked at Lin Xian:
“Senior Lin Xian!
Didn’t you say before that you had a—”
Oops!
Chu Anqing hurriedly clamped her mouth shut.
She remembered Tang Xin and Senior Gao Yang both mentioning, and even Senior Gao Yang swearing, that he grew up with Lin Xian from childhood, asserting that there had been no female classmates who looked like him in high school, or even in middle school, elementary school, or within their circle of friends.
Gao Yang and Lin Xian were childhood friends and only separated when they went to college, so…
Gao Yang’s words were very reliable.
This meant that the sketch Lin Xian had drawn couldn’t possibly be of a high school female classmate who looked exactly like her; considering the age, the girl named Qian Qian had passed away twenty years ago, so she couldn’t have met Lin Xian either.
Therefore…
The sketch was obviously of her, and bringing up that high school female classmate again…
wouldn’t that embarrass Senior Lin Xian?
“What is it?
Something on your mind?” Lin Xian asked.
“No!
Nothing!
Nothing at all!”
Chu Anqing’s head shook like a bobblehead, her lively ponytail whipping back and forth:
“Senior!
We’ve only got today off, let’s not waste time here!
Let’s hurry up and—go shopping!”
Ah…
Chu Anqing truly felt as foolish as a quail, like a broken spinning top, whirling around erratically.
“Let’s get something to drink first then.”
Lin Xian pointed to a crowded tea shop across the street:
“I heard this tea shop’s berry grape blend is quite good, let’s go taste it.
The food at the Aerospace Training Center is good…
but as Gao Yang said, it’s too healthy, and sometimes, this kind of low-quality sugary drink can be more invigorating.”
“Hehe, sounds good!”
