Chapter 361 - 361: Accident
No wonder… Ji Jing thought to herself, so when Ji Ling said ‘home’ back then, he actually only meant ‘those who live at home’. There were also people who don’t live at home! She had misunderstood for so long.
“Why are there so many people?” Ji Jing mumbled.
She had so many children, but Yun Yue looked to be only in her fifties. She did not look like a mother who had given birth to so many children.
Ji Xun seemed to have finally heard what he had been waiting to hear. He suddenly snapped his fingers. You also find it strange, right? Why do Mom and Dad have so many children?”
Ji Jing looked at Ji Xun and said,” Ask me, ask me!” “Are you not biological?” she asked.
Ji Xun shook his head.” I’m your biological brother. Big Brother, me, Ji Ying, Ji Yi, Ji Lan, and Little Eleven, whom you haven’t met yet, are all your biological brothers. However, the rest are indeed adopted children.”
Ji Xun said as he walked up the stairs to the second floor and pushed open a door.
Fortunately, although no one had come to the manor for a long time, the electricity was still on. Ji Xun turned on the lights with a click, instantly illuminating everything in the room.
The bed and sofa in the room had long been put away, leaving only some easels covered with thick dust-proof cloth scattered around.
“It should be this…” Ji Xun opened one of the paintings and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the contents.” Thank goodness I didn’t remember wrongly.
Look, this is a family portrait that Ji Xuan drew back then.”
‘ Twins?” Ji Jing walked forward. When she saw the contents of the painting, she was surprised.” Twins?” They were actually twins? She really did not expect this.
The twins she was talking about weren’t Ji Mu and the others, but Ji Ming.
There were two couples sitting in the front of the painting. One was Ji Ming and Yun Yue. Ji Jing had never seen the other woman before, but the husband looked very similar to Ji Ming!
“Yes, this is my uncle. He and Dad are twin brothers, and those brothers who aren’t his biological brothers are actually his children.” Ji Xun’s gaze landed on the painting. The twelve brothers stood behind the four elders. Other than Ji Ling, the rest were still children at that time. The painting was a mess, but it faithfully recorded the harmony and joy of that time. Ji Xun couldn’t help but look nostalgic.
This painting was created by Ji Xuan when she was twelve years old, but her painting skills were not sloppy at all. She vividly recorded everyone at that time.
” Ji Xuan has always been very talented in painting.” Ji Xun seemed to have a habit of trying to pull a smile, but he couldn’t help but feel a little bitter.” At that time, Dad and Uncle were very proud. They even quarreled over which manor this painting was hung in. How old are you? You’re still so childish.. However, not long after this painting was completed, no one expected my uncle and aunt to suddenly leave…”
Ji Jing frowned.” Did an accident happen?”
“Yes, I am. Air crash.” Ji Xun lowered his eyes and recalled those chaotic days.
“At that time, Uncle, Auntie, Ji Hui, and Ji Ying were all on the plane. As soon as the news of the plane’s accident was out, Mom, Dad, Eldest Brother, and Ji Yi all went to the airport to wait. The plane circled in the sky for a long time before it finally landed. However, the landing failed. The plane almost crashed to the ground and caught fire.”
Ji Xun said slowly,” We waited at home, but it was a mess. I didn’t know anything and just cried. Second Brother and I were stunned.”
Ji Xun reached out and caressed the familiar faces in the painting.” Ji Hui and Ji Ying survived, but Uncle and Auntie…”
“…”Ji Jing didn’t expect the Ji family to have such a tragic past.
Ji Xun frowned.” Maybe it’s because of the trauma. Ji Hui and Ji Ying have different degrees of memory confusion. After Ji Hui woke up, he immediately recognized his parents as his uncles and aunts, and us as his biological brothers. Uncle and Auntie had passed away, and his parents had planned to adopt their child. It didn’t matter if Ji Hui’s memory was messed up, so they could treat him as a real family. That’s why we’ve been living together as our own children for so many years.”
‘ When Uncle and Auntie passed away, Mom and Dad were already very sad. They were holding on for the children.” Ji Xun’s gaze shifted to Ji Jing.” No one expected that in the same year, you would also go missing..”
