Chapter 119 - Wang Xinyi

Wang Xinyi woke up with sweats all over her body, she could feel that the moment she opened her eyes she was already wide awake though.

She stood and went down to the kitchen to get something to drink, she felt her mouth dried up because of that dream or was it really a dream or a repressed memory? Even she couldn't decide it.

This is the first time she had dreamt of that woman although she can't clearly make out her face because its blurry in her memories but the look on her eyes was something she could not forget.

It was gentle yet full of sadness.

In her dreams she was playing near the gate of the first orphanage she used to live in, when suddenly a woman approached her. The woman ċȧrėssed her face as she was crying and saying, "I'm sorry that I could only take your sister with me and you have to be left alone here but I hope you will remember that whatever decisions I made it was because I love the both of you so much."

After saying those words she suddenly disappeared and everything was engulfed with darkness that she cannot fathom, she tried shouting the names of the superiors in the orphanage, the names of the children who was with her, but no matter how loud she shouted there was no one who pulled that little girl of that darkness.

When she was young she had already engraved in her memory that she is alone with no family, not a mother nor a sister. She had never ȧssumed that they still exist because that way there will be no expectations inside her, and with no expectations she wouldn't get hurt.

In all the years she had lived she had always maintained that kind of attitude but she just have to dream of that thing which made her think about things she never thought about for years.

Wang Xinyi went back to her room and lied down on her bed but no matter how hard she tries to sleep her eyes were wide open which made her think about things even more.

The words of the woman struck her good because from that it means that the woman was her mother and that she also has a sister though is was not specified whether it is a younger or an older sister.

From when she was still a baby until she turned four she was living in an orphanage here in the country, she only has vague memories of the time she stayed here and so she can't really talk about it that much. Even the names of the kids who lived with her is something that she can't clearly recall.

Some time that year, she was chosen as one of the children who will be sent to an orphanage in England, there they were able to study in good school and the chances of being adopted in a good family is huge.

But, her personality was different from the kids her age, she rarely speaks, and so people who are looking for someone to adopt does not consider her anymore after a second look.

As years pass by, those children who was the same age as her got adopted one by one and just like that she turned eight in the orphanage.

The orphanage was near the university where Xi Ana and An Qi Lu were studying that's where she met them and because Xi Ana took a liking to her which according to her she looks like someone she does not want to forget she finally got adopted.

It could be considered that Xi Ana was still young back then that the approval would not be allowed and so what happened was she was adopted under the name of the auntie who Xi Ana hired as her guardian so that she could leave the country and live in England even as an underage child.

Xi Ana was the one who took care of the documents for the adoption and ever since then Wang Xinyi has always admired Xi Ana from the depths of her heart.

With all those thinking, morning came but she didn't know whether she actually fell asleep or not, she dragged her body off the bed and prepared for the day earlier than usual.

Wang Xinyi arrived at Xi Corporation an hour earlier. She had already considered everything and she arrived at one possible solution and that is to finally know the truth. Today she is determined to tell her older sister about this decision she had made.

---

Lately there is nothing really significant that happened and the only thing Xi Ana looks forward to is the result of the investigation that she asked but to say that she is idle isn't exactly right.

"President, you have a dinner meeting with the Japanese investors regarding the the progress of Southville Project. The location would be at Sushi Deluxe as they requested."

"I understand. Remind me an hour before leaving so that I have enough time to look through the documents once again." this project is actually really taking a lot of her time.

The plan for this project has already been set in motion for a few months ago and this time. Furthermore, this is also the same project that Xi Corporation and Lim Corporation has a collaboration with.

For this particular project they've adapted an 'Ancient Greek' theme which is why they needed a refutable architecture company to realize their ideals which of course the company on top of that list is none other than Lim Corporation.

When Hannah went out of the office she called out the person who came inside the office following Hannah without the knowledge of the latter.

"Xinyi, is there something you want to tell me?"

The petite woman who looks like she could easily be knocked over went out of her hiding spot.

"Hi, Older sister Ana." her face clearly shows that she is currently bothered by something.

"You know that you don't have to sneak like that just to get inside my office right?"

The woman was dumbfounded and when she finally realized what she had done her cheeks reddened and she felt embarrassed. "Sorry. Older sister Ana I totally forgot all I have in my mind was to talk to right away."

She smiled at the innocent looking Wang Xinyi. With that innocent look and her small frame people would think that she's the type to be protected but actually it's the other way around, with her skills perverts on the road won't be able to stand her.

"What is it?"

"I just have something I want to ask of you."

Ask? This is very rare, ever since she was younger she would not easily ask for something.

"As long as it is within older sister's capabilities then it's fine."

"Well, I just want older sister's help in investigating my identity."

Xi Ana was shocked when she heard that Wang Xinyi wanted to investigate her identity.

Actually, when she took her in she already planned to investigate her roots but Wang Xinyi made her promise not to with the reason that if Xi Ana knew she might change her attitude towards her and she does not want it.

She kept this promise mostly because it's the first time Wang Xinyi made her promise about something because she never did, even the usual promises that children make.

But if she's peaking really honestly, a part of it is because she is scared of what she might learn after investigating.

"Why so sudden?"

"I had a dream last night and I think it was my biological mother and her words were implying that I have actually have a sister and I just realized that maybe its time for me to face this already if I really want my life to move on."

Xi Ana had already observed this before even when Wang Xinyi just got adopted and started living with them. She rarely cries and would never ask for anything, she was also very careful with her words even though she's too young for that. It's like she is protecting that small world with hear small hands.

Aside from seeing that person's face on Wang Xinyi because of the strong resemblance she could also see her young self in her, with all those emotions bottled up inside if she would not be given enough care and attention there would come a day that it will ruin her.

If An Qi Lu, Li Jingli, and Fang Wenna were not a part of her life and if by any chance they didn't know about the secrets she have she would have been long ruined by now.

"Alright then leave everything to me and don't think too much about it."

"Thank you, older sister Ana"

"Didn't I tell you that you don't have to thank me whenever you're asking for something? I'm your sister so its only natural for me to give you what you want."

It's also time for her to stop being a coward and face this, whatever information she would arrive to she would not change her attitude towards Wang Xinyi because even if there is a chance that she might be related to that person Wang Xinyi doesn't have something to do with what he had done.
