Chapter 573 A Kiss Lands on Her Lips

Yu Changze was taken aback.

"You've seen that photo?" Yu Changze frowned. "When did you see it?"

"Well..." Yu Yashi bit her lip, feeling a little guilty, "When I was studying abroad, during my sophomore year, you got drunk, and when you got back to your apartment, you had a headache and fell asleep on the sofa. Your leather jacket fell on the floor, and I saw it by chance when I went to pick it up."

Yu Changze stared at Yu Yashi, his thoughts racing.

Yu Yashi stared at him, holding her breath, waiting for his answer.

After a while, Yu Changze suddenly smiled and said, "Don't you think Rui Xiangning looks a lot like the woman in the photo?"

Yu Yashi frowned.

She didn't know why Yu Changze could still laugh.

Is he really that calm?

She was in so much pain, yet he could still laugh.

As expected, whoever falls in love first suffers the loss.

Yu Yashi felt increasingly aggrieved as she thought about it, and her nose started to sting with tears.

Before she even had a chance, tears were already rolling down her cheeks.

Yu Changze was taken aback.

"Don't cry." He instantly stopped smiling and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips. "It was my fault in this."

Yu Yashi didn't want to cry, but she couldn't hold back her tears once Yu Changze admitted his mistake.

He admitted it; he admitted that the woman in the photo was the woman he loved.

“Third Brother, you’ve kept that photo all these years. I know I have no right to ask, but Rui Xiangning looks so much like her. Even if you didn’t say it, I could guess that you yourself couldn’t remain indifferent to Rui Xiangning’s face.”

“She does look a lot like the woman in the photo,” Yu Changze said with a sigh, “but there’s a misunderstanding.”

Yu Yashi stared at him.

Yu Changze sighed softly, took out his purse, retrieved the photo from a hidden compartment, and handed it to her.

Yu Yashi turned her head to the side, "I'm not looking!"

"How can I explain it to you if you don't look?"

“No need to explain.” Yu Yashi’s voice was muffled, with a hint of stubbornness. “She is the white moonlight in your heart, and she is so beautiful. I know I can’t compare to her, and I don’t want to humiliate myself.”

"She is indeed beautiful." Yu Changze smiled, looking at her with a hint of helplessness in his voice, "But, I don't think I've ever said I love her, have I?"

Yu Yashi paused.

“Ya Shi.” Yu Changze gently pinched her chin, forcing her to turn her head. “Take a closer look at this photo.”

Yu Yashi hesitated for a moment, but her gaze still involuntarily turned to the photo.

A one-inch black and white ID photo.

She looked at it again and again. Although the photo was quite old, it still couldn't hide the woman's stunning beauty.

"Did you notice anything?" Yu Changze asked her.

Yu Yashi looked up at him and was once again struck by the beauty filter in that photo, feeling even more heartbroken and distressed.

"No!" she said, her tone dissatisfied and tinged with annoyance.

It was rare for Yu Changze to see her show a bit of temper; to be honest, it was a bit of a surprise.

After all, she was a girl he had watched grow up since she was a child. He knew her temper well. She rarely got angry, but if she did, it meant she had reached the point of no return.

Yu Changze was happy to see her vent and express her emotions, but since she was pregnant, excessive emotions could pose certain risks to both the mother and the fetus.

Thinking of this, Yu Changze tapped Yu Yashi's nose, which was red from crying, with his fingertip, "Listen carefully, the woman in the photo is my mother."

"What?" Yu Yashi's eyes widened.

"Didn't you notice?" Yu Changze looked at Yu Yashi's blank expression and said in a low voice, "My eyebrows and eyes are actually a bit like hers."

Yu Yashi: "..."

This flip completely threw her off balance.

Yu Changze opened his phone's photo album and found a current photo of Rui's mother.

"Look at this photo again."

Yu Yashi looked at Yu Changze's phone.

The woman on the screen had her hair up. Although she was middle-aged, she was still well-maintained. Compared to that old one-inch photo, she was more mature and charming.

Yu Changze said, "Her name is Rui Shan. She is also of mixed race. Her father is from Yuncheng and her mother is German."

Yu Yashi blinked, looking at Yu Changze's face, and knew there was no need to ask anything.

The mixed-race genes are very obvious!

Even if Yu Yashi was slow to realize it, she would have figured it out by now.

She looked at Yu Changze and asked, "So, Rui Xiangning is your sister?"

Yu Changze raised an eyebrow. "Doesn't she also call me 'brother'?"

"She calls him 'Brother Changze'!" Yu Yashi sneered. "Anyone who doesn't know better would think she's being affectionate with you. In novels, people who call each other that are usually 'green'..."

The sound stopped abruptly.

Yu Yashi covered her mouth, looking at Yu Changze with some embarrassment.

She did mind that Rui Xiangning and Yu Changze were so close, but now that she knew they were siblings, her 'mind' seemed a bit pretentious.

"What's green?" Yu Changze asked with a smile in his eyes, leaning down to magnify his handsome face in front of Yu Yashi.

Only a modeler with a face like Yu Changze could withstand this kind of death perspective.

"It's nothing." Yu Yashi lowered her eyes, feeling guilty and not daring to meet his gaze. "Anyway, when you introduced her to me, you didn't explain things clearly, so you can't blame me for misunderstanding. This is your fault, and I'm not going to take the blame for you!"

Yu Changze chuckled softly, "Ya Shi, are you jealous?"

“I didn’t!” Yu Yashi immediately retorted, “I just thought the woman in the photo was your white moonlight, and since the photo was black and white, I thought your white moonlight was dead. You haven’t dated anyone all these years, so I thought you hadn’t let go of your white moonlight. And then, Rui Xiangning looks so much like the woman in the photo, and you do everything for Rui Xiangning yourself, so I thought you were using Rui Xiangning as a substitute for your white moonlight.”

“So that’s how it is.” Yu Changze looked at Yu Yashi and explained seriously, “The photo is black and white because my abilities were limited back then. This was the only photo I could find. It’s Ruishan’s student ID photo when she was 18. I’ve kept the photo all these years, mainly to keep it as a memento.”

Yu Yashi frowned. "So you already knew who your biological mother was?"

"Um."

"Then why haven't you tried to reunite with them all these years?"

Yu Changze looked at her, his eyes dark and unfathomable. "Do you want to hear my story?"

Yu Yashi nodded, "Yes!"

Yu Changze raised an eyebrow slightly. "Then answer my question first: are you jealous?"

Yu Yashi: "..."

Her cheeks flushed, and her eyes darted to the side—

“Ya Shi,” Yu Changze gently pinched her chin, forcing her to look at him, “look into my eyes, I want to hear the truth from you.”

Yu Yashi stared at him, her eyelashes trembling slightly with nervousness.

She bit her lip, "I, I..."

She was too shy to say it!

Looking at her flushed cheeks, Yu Changze suddenly lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

Yu Yashi froze completely.

The man's lips were soft, gently touching her brow.

The cool touch made the skin where she was kissed feel like it was being energized by a tiny electric current, a tingling sensation that made Yu Yashi's heart pound like a drum!

The man's lips left her brow, and before she could react, he lowered his head and kissed her again—

This time, the kiss landed on her lips.
