Chapter 1733: Chapter 628: The Reverse Female Lead (Seventeen)

Sell the game to her, I should be able to get quite a bit of Silver.

"Young sir, you can hunt, too!"

Ji Xiang remained very respectful towards Xu Changsheng.

Whenever she saw Xu Changsheng’s face, she couldn’t help but get distracted.

So similar!

Really so similar!

This mountain village hunter in front of her looked exactly like that Noble!

Because of this resemblance, Ji Xiang’s attitude was exceptionally good.

"What is she looking at?"

The alert Xu Changsheng sharply noticed Ji Xiang’s abnormality.

He carefully observed Ji Xiang’s expression, then he suddenly had an illusion—

No!

She isn’t looking at me, she’s trying to find the shadow of another person through me!

Could it be that she’s seen someone who looks similar to me?

Seeing Ji Xiang’s instinctive respect, Xu Changsheng couldn’t help but suspect: that person who looks similar to him should be someone with status.

Could it be his relative?!

"Yes! I’ve been hunting since I was a child, no choice, if I don’t go into the mountains, I’d starve to death!"

Xu Changsheng’s mind stirred slightly, deliberately revealing his tragic childhood.

Sure enough, upon hearing Xu Changsheng’s forced adventures for survival, a flash of pity crossed Ji Xiang’s face, along with a faint anger.

As if someone who was supposed to be noble was being so mistreated!

Xu Changsheng’s thoughts became more active.

"...Young sir has suffered. But, as the saying goes, extreme misfortune turns into good fortune, you’ll definitely have great luck in the future!"

By this time, Ji Xiang was somewhat certain.

Before leaving the Prince Mansion, upon hearing the Princess Consort’s orders, she felt a bit surprised, thinking the Princess Consort’s words were rather fanciful.

But upon seeing this young hunter, Ji Xiang couldn’t help but doubt his identity.

Ji Xiang remembered the Princess Consort’s orders, smiled and chatted with Xu Changsheng for a few sentences, then gave him two taels of Silver as a deposit, asking him to help hunt some game.

"By the way, what’s your name, young sir?"

Ji Xiang asked casually.

"My name is Xu Changsheng!" Receiving the Silver, Xu Changsheng was secretly pleased.

He finally saved enough money for his travels.

"Changsheng? What a good name!"

Ji Xiang, following the Princess Consort’s instructions, subtly reminded Xu Changsheng, "Seems like your parents must love you very much, to give you such a meaningful name!"

Xu Changsheng:...Their love is bullshit! They—

Wait!

Changsheng, hoping for their child to have a long life. It’s indeed a name with great meaning.

From the name, one could see that his "parents" certainly cared for him very much.

Of course, these parents do not refer to Scabies Xu and Wang Yecha.

...So, he truly wasn’t the biological child of the Scabies Xu couple.

Thus, his biological parents actually cherished him, losing him must have been for unavoidable reasons.

Xu Changsheng’s mind was turbulent.

Suddenly, he remembered hearing villagers whispering in his childhood: "Scabies Xu probably made money outside, that’s why he could pay off the debt at the town’s gambling house."

"Yes! Absolutely, or else he wouldn’t dare come back. Moreover, the enforcers from the gambling house haven’t come to settle accounts with them!"

Made money?

Brought back a child that looks nothing like his wife at all?

Xu Changsheng suddenly recalled a storytelling segment he heard in the County, many clues were pieced together by him into a complete lead!

Ji Xiang’s hint was subtle, seeing the tall, dark, thin young man lost in thought, she turned and went about her tasks.

After a while, Xu Changsheng came back to his senses.

Holding the Silver in his hand, Xu Changsheng didn’t delay and took a turn in the mountains.

An hour later, he hurried into the courtyard of Second Sister Li just before it was completely dark.

Ji Xiang accepted the items and gave him three taels of Silver as the final payment.

Including the deposit, a total of five taels of Silver.

This was already quite a fortune for Xu Changsheng.

He secretly went to a dilapidated old house at the village head and buried the Silver in the place where he kept his private money.

"Thirteen taels and two maces of Silver!"

This was all his savings.

Although not much, it was enough for him to leave his hometown, to go seek his relatives!

But, looking at the Silver in the jar, Xu Changsheng gave up the thought of leaving.

He had a premonition; once Ji Xiang returns to the capital, she would definitely take action.

Perhaps he only needed to wait at Xujiaping for good news!

Xu Changsheng’s thought was not one-sided.

No doubt, the next day when Ji Xiang helped Granny Li leave, she passed by Xu Changsheng, again looking at him with that weird gaze.

Xu Changsheng met Ji Xiang’s gaze, increasingly firm in his speculation.

Ji Xiang might not return, but she will certainly inform someone of his existence.

Then he, would be able to wait for his biological parents...
