Chapter 247: Blood Related

Translator: Vesper

Stunned, Xiao Qi Tian blinked at Ning Meng Yao and asked: “Meng Yao, what did you say just now?”

Xiao Qi Tian couldn’t be blamed for being so startled as he could not believe what he had just heard.

What she had just asked about was a secret to them, yet she actually knew about it.

This was somewhat absurd no matter how he thought about it.

“What does the crescent birthmark represent?” Seeing Xiao Qi Tian’s reaction, Ning Meng Yao was even more curious as to the reason behind his response.

Xiao Qi Tian suppressed his surprise and looked at Ning Meng Yao seriously: “Meng Yao, may I know why you want to know about it?”

Ning Meng Yao lowered her head and turned slightly to let Xiao Qi Tian see the back of her ear.

When Xiao Qi Tian saw the birthmark behind Ning Meng Yao’s ear, his mind went blank as he stared at Ning Meng Yao.

His reaction this time was much more drastic than before. He couldn’t believe what he saw.

“Why are you acting so strange after seeing my birthmark?” Xiao Qi Tian continued to stare blankly at the mark behind her ear. Ning Meng Yao lifted her eyebrows and her tone had a distinct surprise when she asked him.

She subconsciously touched her ear. Just what did the birthmark represent, that made these two have such a big reaction?

Xiao Qi Tian, who finally regained his senses, couldn’t help but ask: “Who else saw it?”

“Duke Xiao, Xiao Yi Lin.” Qiao Tian Chang looked at Ning Meng Yao, who was quiet and spoke for her.

“Ah, no wonder.”

No wonder Ning Meng Yao would ask what the birthmark meant. It must’ve been because of Xiao Yi Lin.

“You talked so much, so what does it mean?” Ning Meng Yao frowned at Xiao Qi Tian.

She really disliked the feeling of not knowing.

Xiao Qi Tian looked at Ning Meng Yao and spoke seriously: “It’s very likely that we are related, not as siblings, but relatives.” Ning Meng Yao was older than him by a month or two.

Ning Meng Yao looked at Xiao Qi Tian awkwardly and asked with some difficulties: “Are you sure you’re not mistaken?”

“I’m certain. My brother and I have that crescent birthmark too. His on his back, and mine here.” Xiao Yu Tian pulled up his sleeves to reveal the crescent birthmark on his left arm. It was the same pattern as the one Ning Meng Yao had.

Ning Meng Yao stared at the birthmark on Xiao Qi Tian and was horrified. How is this possible?

She was an orphan who was raised by an old seamstress, but now she was told about this. It was too much for her to accept.

Not just Ning Meng Yao, Qiao Tian Chang was also bewildered.

“Let’s go to the palace to meet my brother.” He didn’t know how he should explain to her. It would be clearer if they ask the emperor instead.

He didn’t know much about the Xiao family, especially about the birthmark. He recalled that the Xiao family often sent people to check for the birthmark when the children were born from the family, especially if the child was a girl.

But what it meant, he wasn’t too sure about it, but he believed that the emperor must know about it so he suggested bringing Ning Meng Yao to the palace immediately to find out what it was about.

However, Ning Meng Yao frowned when she heard his words. She didn’t want to go there. It was a terrifying place and she felt that if she went there, her life would be disrupted.

The sense of danger made her reluctant to go with Xiao Qi Tian.

“Yao Yao, what’s wrong?” Qiao Tian Chang was concerned upon seeing Ning Meng Yao frown. It was obvious that she was worried about something.

“Tian Chang, I don’t want to go.” Ning Meng Yao grabbed Qiao Tian Chang’s arm, her voice trembling slightly.

Qiao Tian Chang had never seen Ning Meng Yao this flustered before.

Ignoring Xiao Qi Tian’s presence, Qiao Tian Chang reached out and hugged her tightly while patting her back subconsciously: “Don’t worry, if you don’t want to go there, then we won’t go. We’ll only go if you want to.” At this time, Qiao Tian Chang only responded to Ning Meng Yao. A pity for Xiao Qi Tian who was getting more and more agitated as he stood by the side.
