After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 235

Chapter 235: Chapter 235: What Exactly Happened to Juanjuan in the Past

Although Mr. Chen had been of great help in the past, and to some extent could be considered a benefactor,

they had only contacted each other by phone twice before, and today was their first meeting.

Lu Sheng did not know the man in front of her.

Even if they could be considered friends, Lu Sheng still remained vigilant and did not plan to reveal too much personal information.

"Not about pursuit or luck, just fate," Lu Sheng responded briefly, then asked, "So, is Mr. Chen visiting China for traveling, or is there something else?"

"If it’s for travel, I think I can help, like arranging a travel and gourmet guide for you. If you need, I can also take a few days off to be your guide."

"Miss Lu Sheng is really considerate."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen smiled slightly and said, "However, I am not here in Jiang City for tourism. But although it’s for another matter, I indeed need Miss Lu Sheng’s help for it."

"Eh?" Lu Sheng looked up upon hearing this.

Mr. Chen came to Jiang City for another matter, and it involved her help?

Lu Sheng couldn’t guess what it was for the moment.

The next second, the man across suddenly took out a photo from his jacket pocket, placed it on the table, and pushed it towards her.

"Miss Lu Sheng, take a look at this."

"This is..."

Lu Sheng picked up the photo subconsciously, but upon clearly seeing the image, she was somewhat astonished.

It was a photo from Shengjing High School Festival.

At that time, she was standing next to the dessert house counter, but obviously, she wasn’t the focal point of Mr. Chen’s attention. His focus seemed to be on the girl in the background captured only from the side of her face.

Juanjuan.

As smart as Lu Sheng, seeing the photo and combining it with what Mr. Chen just said, and thinking of the man’s resemblance to Juanjuan, she almost immediately figured it out.

Lu Sheng looked up slightly stunned, "You are Juanjuan’s..."

"Juanjuan?" Mr. Chen’s eyes shifted slightly as well, saying, "So the sister named Juanjuan that Miss Lu Sheng mentioned over the phone two months ago is Christine."

Lu Sheng took a deep breath: "...Christine?"

Seeing Lu Sheng’s serious demeanor, Mr. Chen pointed to the girl in the photo, whose side face, though only partially visible, was still as pretty as a doll.

"Christine is my biological sister, the girl in this photo, who should also be the Juanjuan Miss Lu Sheng mentioned."

"I came to Jiang City because I saw this photo a few days ago and found out that Christine is actually in Jiang City, China and with you, Miss Lu Sheng."

"I really want to know how Christine met you, Miss Lu Sheng, and what the current situation is."

During this time, although Lu Sheng has been staying at home, she has been keeping an eye out for information that might relate to Juanjuan’s family.

Unknowingly, Juanjuan has already been staying in her apartment for nearly three months.

"So, I took her to my apartment, and she has been living there peacefully for the past few months without her memory returning."

At this point, Lu Sheng suddenly looked at Mr. Chen.

"Speaking of which... if Mr. Chen you are Juanjuan’s real brother, then it means that Juanjuan was also in Suli before."

"You should know why she feels scared of going home, and how she ended up from Suli to Jiang City, right?"

The girl spoke calmly, but her eyes clearly carried some scrutiny.

As if initially treating him purely as a grateful friend, now she seemed somewhat wary.

Upon hearing that Juanjuan got amnesia from an accident and hasn’t recovered her memory yet, Mr. Chen’s eyes shifted almost imperceptibly while maintaining a calm facade.

"...I do not know how Christine came to Jiang City, but I know why she is frightened of going home," Mr. Chen paused for a moment, calmly spoke.

But his next words completely stunned Lu Sheng.

"My father, the only First-class Duke among the nobles of Suli."

"My mother is Chinese, she was beautiful, but she had a mental illness."

"One rainy night over three months ago, my mother had an episode and stabbed my father to death, witnessed by Christine. In a panic to escape, Christine accidentally made a noise."

"My mother rushed over trying to kill her, and when Christine was being choked by her, she instinctively struggled and slit my mother’s throat with a dagger."

"The next day, what I saw were just the corpses of my father and mother lying in a pool of blood. My sister Christine had already disappeared."
