Mrs. Ye quickly ordered the guard, "Call the Young Master now, get him home immediately!"
"Yes, Madam!" The guard moved to oblige.
...
Back in the car, Mubai raised the partition that separated the driver from the back.
He narrowed his eyes at Xinghe. "You’re the one who hacked into my computer last night, right?"
Xinghe nodded slightly. "That’s right."
"So, everything you said is true?"
"Naturally."
"So, you’re not the original Xia Meng?"
"Correct." Xinghe nodded again. She was still the same as before, as stingy with her words as she could possibly be.
Mubai was shocked. Even though he kind of saw this coming but at that moment, he still had a hard time believing it.
"How could this have happened?" he asked with utter disbelief, "You should understand that no one will believe this."
"I hardly believe it, but it is the truth."
"Do you have any proof that you are indeed... you?"
Xinghe chuckled. "How exactly do you expect me to prove something like that? Regardless, it’s okay if you don’t believe it because you already helped me get out of the Ye family."
The mention of the Ye family irked Mubai for some reason. That whole family was like a thorn in his heart, he couldn’t wait to pull them out.
Even though Xinghe really wasn’t Ye Shen’s wife, he was furious that she had somehow ended up in Xia Meng’s body, who was his wife.
"Did you know, you woke up yesterday," Mubai revealed.
Xinghe was slightly taken aback, but she quickly understood what he meant, "Who is she?"
"No idea but she has been pretending to be you."
From the first moment, he laid his eyes on that woman, he knew that wasn’t Xia Xinghe.
No one could mimic Xinghe’s indomitable will.
Furthermore, the words left by the mysterious hacker also added to his suspicion.
"I observed her for a whole night and became more and more certain that person couldn’t be you, so I came to find you today," Mubai explained, "All this feels like a dream..."
"So, you believe me?" Xinghe asked.
Mubai gazed into her eyes and replied sincerely, "Can I not?"
Xinghe’s eyes shook. She didn’t expect him to believe her so easily.
She probably needed more convincing to persuade even Xia Zhi but he believed her so readily.
Was it because he knew her too well or something?
Regardless, Xinghe decided not to dwell on it, she was just glad he believed her.
"Take me to see her, I believe that is the real Xia Meng," Xinghe said.
Mubai nodded but his gaze never left.
Xinghe felt his eyes on her and after a while, she couldn’t help but ask, "What are you looking at?"
Mubai ignored her question and instead said, "That day when you fainted, I was deeply worried and after I found out about your sickness, I felt my world has ended. I prayed day and night for you to survive and even though you’ve found an interesting and unexpected way to live, I’m glad."
As long as she was alive, he didn’t mind who she became. As long as she was alive...
Xinghe averted her gaze. "I am also glad that I’m alive."
She thought that was the end for her too.
"You knew about your illness from very early on, why didn’t you tell me?" Mubai asked a bit sternly. It was hard for him to not be at least a little bit angry for the deception.
"There was nothing to be said. Anyway, currently, I just want to figure out a way to get back into my own body."
Mubai clamped his hands over hers, and said with determination, "Don’t worry, you will. I will do everything I can to help you make that happen."
