Shadow and Light: The Bride Who Clicks Her Way to Love-Chapter 453 - 466: The Box of Memories

Su Jinnian turned his head, looked at her as if she was an idiot: "To do a DNA test of course, don’t you believe I’m your brother?"

Su Xingyu followed him, still feeling dizzy and completely unaware of the situation.

At the roadside, he hailed a car, shoved her inside, got in himself, and asked her: "Which hospital?"

She was dumbfounded again: "Huh?"

"I asked you which hospital," Su Jinnian seemed very irritable, his patience almost worn out by her, "You don’t trust me, so you pick the hospital yourself. Otherwise, you’d claim I bribed the doctors!"

"I..." She really couldn’t keep up with the young man’s thinking, or perhaps she hadn’t recovered from the overwhelming confusion yet, subconsciously blurting out the hospital she was most familiar with, "Cining."

"To Cining Hospital, hurry." Su Jinnian slapped a few hundred-yuan notes into the driver’s hand.

The driver, seeing the money, his eyes lit up, and responded with a cheerful "Okay!", speeding as fast as he could to get them to Cining Hospital.

Cining Hospital is the largest comprehensive hospital in the city, always crowded no matter when one visits. Su Xingyu obediently followed the crowd to queue for registration. Staring at the seemingly endless line, Su Jinnian gave her another idiot look, and dialed a phone call: "Shirley, I don’t care what method you use, I’m at Cining Hospital now and need a DNA test urgently, understand?"

Su Xingyu gave him a surprised glance, this young man, really—on one hand asking her to trust that he hadn’t bribed the doctors, yet blatantly making that call!

"What are you looking at," sensing her gaze, Su Jinnian grew impatient again, "Don’t you understand time is money? Never mind, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you. If you were slightly smarter, you wouldn’t be in such a situation today."

Su Xingyu: "..."

Speak nicely if you’re going to speak, don’t make personal attacks!

However, she wasn’t truly angry—instead finding the young man’s irritable demeanor somewhat endearing. Perhaps they really are twin siblings? For some reason, she didn’t reject the thought, and upon learning they could be siblings, she even felt a hidden anticipation and excitement in her heart.

Maybe, it was true loneliness for too long.

She desperately wanted family, someone to support each other with, someone to accompany her.

After making the call, very soon, a doctor in a white coat hurriedly came towards them, stood in front of them, and warmly reached out for a handshake with Su Jinnian: "Mr. Su, right? Hello, hello, I’m Wang Ping from the Cining Laboratory Department, chief physician. Please follow me, I’ll take you for the test."

Su Xingyu watched this incident with surprise—a doctor’s position was quite high, especially one at the chief physician level, yet this Mr. Wang was acting respectfully in front of Su Jinnian. What exactly is the background of this boy claiming to be her brother? Before she could dwell further, Su Jinnian told her: "Follow."

He quickly followed Mr. Wang ahead.

Su Xingyu hurriedly caught up.

Soon, the two of them had their DNA collected for testing.

Typically, a DNA test for kinship takes several days to produce results, but with Su Jinnian’s privilege, they obtained the results the same day.

Su Xingyu stared at the result report in shock; it showed a 99% probability that she and Su Jinnian were twin siblings.

99% in medical terms is a rigorous expression, but in ordinary terms, it means she and Su Jinnian were undoubtedly twin siblings!

"How... can this be?" Su Xingyu was thrilled but mostly incredulous, "How could I have a twin brother?" About the childhood story Su Jinnian mentioned in the cafe earlier, she had absolutely no memory; there was never, in her memory, a brother named Su Jinnian.

She tried hard to recall: did this brother really exist when she was young?

However, maybe from thinking too hard, her head suddenly felt dizzy, and she almost stumbled.

Su Jinnian swiftly caught her, his slender hand quickly retracted, his gaze full of mockery: "Still can’t remember?"

Su Xingyu initially intended to shake her head but stopped abruptly. For some reason, she felt that beneath his anger, the young man was hiding nervousness and grievance; he... wasn’t as fierce as he appeared, was he? Wasn’t he also like her, yearning for family?

Her heart softened, and the words to deny left unspoken.

The young man pulled her out of the hospital, and they found a cafe to sit down.

Only then did the young man slowly explain to her: "When I was born, they found I wasn’t well, had some blood-related illness, easily leading to death. So mom separated us for upbringing. Most of the time, I lived in the hospital or countryside to recuperate, while you stayed with mom and dad."

Su Xingyu listened like it was a fantasy.

Su Jinnian continued: "But there were times, mom and dad would bring me home for family gatherings; they would often take you to the countryside to visit me. Mom liked to hold us and tell stories, and you enjoyed playing with me as well." As he spoke, he showed a look of disdain, "Think carefully, really no impression at all?"

Her head started to ache again, and she couldn’t help but hold on with her hand.

The hazy scent of the coffee shop seemed to unlock ancient memories, something started to surface, yet no matter what, she couldn’t recall.

Su Jinnian gazed at her quietly for a while, then said: "If you really can’t remember, I can help you. All these years, I’ve never forgotten you and have been keeping an eye on you. I found you can’t remember me anymore, so I’ve consulted some experts on this. They say—it might be that the event was too traumatic for you, causing selective amnesia."

"That event?" Su Xingyu raised her head in confusion.

"Mom’s car accident."

Su Xingyu’s heart ached deeply, the scene of her mother Mu Yun’s accident resurfacing vividly—her dear mom beneath the huge car wheels bleeding, looking at her and saying: "Xingyu, you must live well... don’t be sad..."

Her eyes instantly reddened.

Su Jinnian stared at her, saying: "Back then mom wasn’t alone on the road when she got hit. She was holding my hand at that moment. When that truck rushed over, she saved me and got hit instead, you saw it all from the roadside—how she pushed me away and was caught under the wheels herself... Su Xingyu, you couldn’t handle that trauma, fearing you’d hate me, or perhaps you always did hate me, that’s why you completely erased me from your memory."
