Chapter 172: Unmatched Destiny

“You’re already so old, yet you’re still acting like a child.”

Lu Zhou couldn’t help but nag. He even got up and closed the window.

Lu Sheng poured away the snow on her palm and smiled at Chu Sihan. “Have you built snowmen before?”

Chu Sihan shook his head. “No!”

Lu Sheng sat up straight and propped up her chin. “When I was six years old, I piled snowmen in the snow for a day because I was playful. In the end, my legs were frozen and I couldn’t get up. If Master hadn’t discovered it early, I would have frozen to death in the snow.”

Lu Zhou subconsciously looked at Chu Sihan. Sure enough, there was some doubt in his clear eyes.

He hurriedly said to Lu Sheng, “Disciple, go and heat up a pot of wine.”

Was this little girl afraid that Chu Sihan would not suspect her?

The Third Prince was only seventeen or eighteen years old ten years ago and had never left the capital. How could he have known her?

The little girl was as shrewd as a monkey at times, but also muddle-headed at times. He didn’t know whether to praise her for being smart or call her silly.

“Oh, I’ll go right away.”

Lu Sheng got up and responded lazily.

After she left, Chu Sihan asked, “Where did the Third Prince meet him?”

This ‘him’ was naturally referring to his biological father.

Lu Zhou smiled and said, “Huang Yang Town.”

“Huang Yang Town?” Chu Sihan was shocked. “He actually came here?”

Lu Zhou nodded. “He came to discuss something with me, but he only sat for a while before leaving.”

“I see.”

Chu Sihan nodded calmly. “I wonder if Siyun is awake.”

Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows. “Are you referring to your ‘dead’ brother?”

Chu Sihan nodded slightly.

Back then, Chu Siyun had indeed died after being poisoned.

However, Chu Hongzhong also obtained some information from somewhere, saying that there was an immortal grass in Snowfall Villa that could bring people back from the dead.

Hence, he went to Snowfall Villa and Yan Ye agreed.

Later on, Chu Hongzhong hid it from everyone and opened the coffin that night, directly sending the person to Snowfall Villa overnight.

He was saved, but he never woke up.

He heard from Yan Ye that it was because his soul had been frightened and he had to recuperate properly. If he wanted to wake up, he would have to sleep for at least ten to twenty years.

Now, thirteen years had passed, but there was still no news of Chu Siyun waking up.

“Are you blaming him?” Lu Zhou suddenly asked.

Chu Sihan was stunned. In the end, he smiled and did not say anything.

Lu Zhou smiled. “You were born with a different destiny from your mother. If you had been raised in Snowfall Villa, you would not have lived past the age of ten unless you were far away from your mother. Unfortunately…”

“Unfortunately what?”

Chu Sihan clenched his fists, but his expression remained calm.

Lu Zhou chuckled and said, “Unfortunately, even your father didn’t expect that you would be cursed to death in the Chu Mansion.”

Chu Sihan frowned. “So, it’s true that I’m destined not to live past thirty?”

“Absolutely.”

Lu Zhou took a sip of tea and continued, “Back then, Mdm Chu’s eldest son died right after he was born, and your father swapped you with that dead baby.”

“However, he didn’t expect Chu Hongzhong to walk in on him. He had no choice but to reveal his identity and the truth. He even promised Chu Hongzhong that as long as the Chu family is in trouble in future, Snowfall Villa will definitely not refuse him.”

At that time, Chu Hongzhong was afraid that his mother and wife would be sad when they found out about this matter. Hence, he gave the midwife and the servants who were in the room at that time a sum of money to let them leave Huang Yang Town.
