Chapter 318: She Still Had One Wish
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
In the castle.
Everyone was exhausted after an entire day of activities and by 10 PM, the lights of almost every room were turned off.
The night sky tended to be at its brightest during summer and the sky was full of stars while a full moon hung high up in the sky. As the moonlight splashed down on this gothic castle, it exuded a misty and mysterious charm.
He Xiyan stood on the balcony of the third floor. Floor-length windows had been installed at the balcony so she had an extremely good view. She could see the roads in the distance and also see the stars in the sky.
She held the railing with one hand and placed the other hand on her swollen belly.
She was already seven months pregnant and now weighed 65 kilograms, so she seemed very bulky and ungainly. She also felt a little tired after the wedding today but she was happy.
She was finally recognized as the true mistress of this castle and was also married to a husband who loved her.
She also had two children, so she was extremely content.
If she could be granted one wish, she hoped that she would be able to find her long lost sister. She remembered that her sister was born in January 1997. If her sister was still alive, she would be 24 years old now and would probably be a beautiful young lady.
If she could find her sister, she would make sure that her sister would lead a comfortable life and help her marry into a good family. Then, her parents would be able to rest easy in the afterlife.
She still couldn’t erase the memory of her mother on her deathbed. Before she passed away, her mother had asked for a picture of her younger sister and constantly muttered her sister’s name. She didn’t even close her eyes before she passed away.

She knew that her mother blamed herself and lied in guilt for the rest of her life because she had lost their younger sister and her sister was only slightly older than a year old when she had gone missing. It was impossible for her to remember where their house was and what her name had been. Each time her mother read the papers and saw the news reporting on how missing children would be sent to beg on the streets after having their limbs hacked off, or how some would be kidnapped by evil people and killed for their organs, she would shed painful tears. Her mother was so terrified that her sister had been kidnapped by evil people and was either sent to beg on the streets or had been killed for her organs.
I’m sure you’re still alive, right? He Yiyi…
He Xiyan stared at the brightest star in the sky. It was said that sisters would have a physical connection and would be able to sense each other’s pain and happiness, so subconsciously, she had always felt that her sister was alive and was probably even more beautiful than her. She had seen baby pictures of her younger sister and she looked very adorable and glowed with a healthy radiance.
They have been through many hardships but since she managed to find happiness, she was sure that her sister would also be able to do the same. The fortune teller had said that her sister’s horoscope was very auspicious and would encounter helpful people throughout her life, so this meant that her sister was out there somewhere in the world.
He Xiyan took out a tiny jade pendant from her neck. This jade pendant was extremely small and crafted from suet white jade. It wasn’t very valuable and her mother said that she had purchased it from a tiny jade shop and had bought a set, one for her and one for her sister. Later, her mother had even brought this set of jade pendants to the temple to be blessed. Her mother was a devout Buddhist and felt that after this set of jade pendants had been blessed, it would be able to protect them from all harm.

He Xiyan held the small pendant in her hand and stared up at the stars in the distance. She also dredged up many past memories that flashed past her mind like an old film. Suddenly, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist.
