Chapter 463: Xie Feng Yao Feng?

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Mu Wuying's voice turned much softer and lower to the point that if it were not for the fact that the room was absolutely silent and the mansion was set back from the main gate that separated it from the central square, Xie Feng would not have been able to hear her.

"As you well know, due to China's large population and increase in recent years, each family is only allowed to have one child for each parents... So, if it became known that one of the country's leading families was breaking their own rule, the citizens would definitely start an uproar.

This is precisely why Nangong Chen was sent to study far away from Beijing and even accepted all his demands no matter how unreasonable they were. Since the leader of the Nangong Family would be Nangong Lei, his younger brother could do as he pleased... In the university no one knew that he was a member of THAT Nangong Family and even if he said so it was unlikely that anyone would really believe him." Mu Wuying sighed.

In fact, Xie Feng still remembered how neither the principal nor any teacher gave any too special treatment to Nangong Chen back then. Even when he hit him with the basketball back then during the match between his class and the official university team, no one said anything about it. If they knew that he was a member of one of the five leading families in China then someone would definitely have tried to curry favor with him in some way or another.

"Back then several years ago, the patriarch of the Yao Family, Yao Xiyu was getting a lot of pressure for some strange reason. I assume it was that he and his wife had had three children although in reality one of them was a girl, to be honest I'm not sure about this part." Mu Wuying continued.

"The thing is that Yao Feng was sent far away, out of Beijing... I guess this would be for a few years, maybe four or five years until he reached adulthood and then send him to study at a prestigious university... However, apparently the vehicle in which Yao Feng was traveling along with three attack and defense type Espers was attacked when they arrived at the outskirts of Beijing.

The enemy was definitely powerful as among the Espers sent to protect Yao Feng was a dual-attribute one capable of controlling fire and earth... In fact, it was one of the most powerful Espers in China. However, even then they were unable to stop the enemy. A huge explosion shook the entire metropolis of Beijing that same day as if a nuclear bomb had been triggered.

But the most surprising thing of all was that when the authorities got there, there was no damage to the ground. It was just that except for some blood stains, there was no trace of bodies or people at the scene." Mu Wuying sighed again and looked at Xie Feng with complicated eyes, "From that moment on, Yao Feng disappeared and never appeared again. The Yao Family went through many things since then but only they know the real reason why Yao Feng was sent away in the past, otherwise Yao Mei wouldn't be like she is today."

Xie Feng gently kissed her forehead and asked in a whispered voice, "What about you?"

"I..." Mu Wuying smiled bitterly and forced a smile, "My self back then felt the whole world collapsing before my eyes. Although I had only met him once and we had only talked for a couple of hours, the love he awakened in the depths of my soul was even greater than what a couple who went through thousands of life and death experiences could ever feel!

I was depressed for a long time and at night I could only fall asleep when I got tired of crying and my pillow was already completely soaked. However, it was a few months later that I realized that something was not right.

My powers, which had been awakened by my love for Yao Feng, were still there? My powers are different from the other members of my family, I depend on my lover and without him I am as good as a normal person or even worse than an ordinary person... If my beloved really died, then my heart should also have died after his departure and my powers should have stopped working or gone back to sleep like in the past."

Speaking here, Mu Wuying looked at Xie Feng with a serious expression and continued:

"But a few years later, when I decided to move away from Beijing for a while and entered Shanghai University, I finally thought I had found the answer I was looking for... That answer is you!

I still remember how my heart beat with the same intensity as it did when I saw Yao Feng during that birthday party. The feeling was exactly the same, not a replica or similar, exactly the same! The longing, desire, love, the amount of feelings I felt for you back then was overwhelming.

How was it possible for me to feel this way about someone I had never seen before? At that time I thought my heart was dead and no matter how outstanding the man who appeared before me was, he didn't even get a second glance from me, but what about you then? That's when the thought of 'could it be that he is...' popped into my mind and I couldn't think of anything else to do but approach you. Unfortunately, soon after I found out that your childhood memories were long gone... But even so this only reinforced my theory that my beloved one was you!"

Xie Feng was silent, stunned and not knowing what to say or what to think about what he had just heard.

Mu Wuying's story might sound a little crazy, but from a certain point of view it was exceedingly logical as well.

He could still remember clearly how Mu Wuying was treated like a goddess by all the men at Shanghai University. When he passed the entrance exam a few weeks later, he saw her surrounded by friends and young men trying to get her favor with smiles and compliments.

The Xie Feng of that time was just an average-looking young man, without any strange powers apart from an above-average physical body, with only good grades and a little skill at playing the piano. But that was all; nothing worth mentioning.

He and she were worlds apart.

She was beautiful, charming, powerful, and came from one of the five most prestigious families in all of China and one of the most powerful in the entire world.

On the other hand, he was just a regular guy who had even been thrown out on the street by his own royal parents.

However, Xie Feng could still remember how she looked shocked to see him and ignoring all the people beside her, she rushed towards him as if she was afraid that he would disappear in the next instant.

Why would a goddess descend to the mortal world? For a mere mortal? Xie Feng did not believe in fairy tales.

So, was it possible that a goddess would descend to the mortal world in search of her past love? At least it made more sense.

Could it be that he was really that boy Yao Feng, a member of the Yao Family? Although the past years did not match his current age, Xie Feng did not know if the age he thought he was was his real age either so this was not an impediment to this theory.

Still, Xie Feng shook his head gently and pointed out, "Although everything you've said makes sense, there is something that doesn't match here."

Mu Wuying nodded with a frown and responded quietly, "According to what you saw, your mother had black hair just like Beiming Fei but your little sister also had completely black hair... This doesn't match Yao Mei, she always had fire red hair since birth, my mother was present that day so there is definitely nothing wrong."

Xie Feng nodded and shook his hair in exasperation before sighing, "I suddenly feel a huge headache... What's with all this mess?"

He was or wasn't?

"Now do you understand?" Mu Wuying smiled bitterly and caressed his face as she looked at him with tender eyes, "I didn't want to tell you all this because I didn't want to give you hope only to have it cruelly shattered by reality."

Xie Feng looked into her eyes and gave her a small smile before hugging her tightly.

Only those who knew him really well could say that the matter of his real parents was of extreme importance to him and any mention of it agitated him no matter how much he didn't show it. Especially now, after what he saw during Shen Xinya's concert.

Therefore, what Mu Wuying did was really out of her love and care for him.

In fact, the one who suffered the most during this whole separation process was undoubtedly her. After all, he continued his life together with Xie Yao while she loved him with all her heart and probably spent nights crying silently and alone while missing him.

But for him, she endured.

What right did he then have to reproach such a woman? Only a child would have it.

As he hugged her, Xie Feng felt a terrible headache... This whole thing was a total mess!
