《My Life or Your Memory》Chapter 21: Discovery! Twin Sister!
Advertisement
"Tidak masalah," Han Qingshan mengirimnya senyum cemerlang yang akan membuat lutut gadis mana pun menjadi lemah, termasuk Jiang Yingyue, tetapi dia dengan cepat menenangkan dirinya lagi.
Mereka memasuki rumah, dan sementara Jiang Yingyue pergi untuk mengambil beberapa pakaian, Han Qingshan mulai melihat melalui flat.
Ketika dia berada di sini terakhir kali, dia belum melihat banyak foto dan barang-barang kecil yang diletakkan di rak dan lemari, tetapi kali ini dia keluar untuk menyelidiki.
Jiang Yingyue tidak memikirkan itu dan memasuki kamar mandi. Untungnya, semua perban yang dia gunakan untuk mengikat kelinci gioknya ada di dalam kamar mandi, jadi dia tidak perlu membawanya, dan dengan demikian Han Qingshan tidak melihat apa pun yang tidak diharapkan untuk dilihatnya.
Suara air mengalir bisa terdengar di seluruh rumah, isolasi miskin, dan Han Qingshan agak terkejut. Dia belum pernah menunggu seseorang untuk mandi sebelumnya, dan berlalunya waktu tampak sangat lama.
Untuk tidak memikirkan fakta bahwa Jiang Yingyue sedang mandi, Han Qingshan mulai melihat foto-foto yang berbeda. Dia melihat banyak foto yang sepertinya sudah tua.
Itu dari dua anak, keduanya terlihat sangat menggemaskan. Yang satu jelas seorang gadis sementara yang lain seorang anak laki-laki. Mereka sangat mirip sehingga dia bisa langsung tahu bahwa mereka kembar.
Ada beberapa foto anak laki-laki dan perempuan itu sendirian, sebagian besar foto gadis itu diambil di luar sementara dia berseri-seri seperti matahari, sedangkan foto-foto anak laki-laki itu sebagian besar diambil di dalam. Meskipun bocah itu juga tersenyum, itu tidak pernah secemerlang gadis itu, seolah-olah ada bayangan yang tergantung di sudut mulutnya.
"Jadi dia punya saudara perempuan." Han Qingshan langsung bisa mengatakan bahwa anak lelaki ini adalah Jiang Fengmian, dan gadis yang sangat mirip dengannya kemungkinan besar adalah saudara perempuannya. Sayangnya, dia belum melihat jejaknya sejak dia mengenal Jiang Fengmian ini, jadi dia mungkin sudah mati.
Melirik pintu kamar mandi, Han Qingshan pindah ke sudut ruang duduk, mengeluarkan ponsel dari sakunya, dan mulai membuat panggilan telepon.

"Aku masih belum punya kabar tentang Fengmian itu," suara dingin dan pemarah terdengar di ujung telepon sebelum Han Qingshan bahkan bisa memperkenalkan dirinya.
"Aku punya beberapa informasi untukmu," katanya sebagai gantinya, dan suara dingin itu berhenti. "Informasi untukku?" dia bertanya dengan keraguan dalam suaranya.
"Ya, lelaki ini memiliki saudara kembar. Dia mungkin sudah mati karena aku belum melihat fotonya dari yang lebih tua dari sekitar sepuluh tahun. Seharusnya membuatmu lebih mudah menemukan latar belakangnya." Han Qingshan tidak tahu mengapa, tapi dia benar-benar ingin tahu semua yang perlu diketahui tentang teman barunya.
"Kamu tahu kalau ID-nya palsu. Kemungkinan besar nama aslinya tidak ada hubungannya dengan Fengmian, jadi bahkan jika aku menemukan seseorang bernama Fengmian dengan saudara kembar, sangat mungkin bukan dia." Suara di ujung telepon berkata, terdengar agak tidak sabar.
"Aku tahu," Han Qingshan menghela nafas. "Oh, harus pergi!" katanya, sambil menutup telepon tanpa menunggu jawaban pria dingin itu. Air di kamar mandi dimatikan, dan sementara Han Qingshan menunggunya muncul, waktu perlahan berlalu.
Dia mulai mengerutkan kening. Mengapa Jiang Fengmian butuh waktu begitu lama untuk keluar dari kamar mandi?
Yang benar adalah bahwa setelah mandi, Jiang Yingyue perlu mengeringkan dirinya sendiri, dan kemudian dia harus mengikat dadanya sehingga tidak lagi terlihat.
Proses ini biasanya memakan waktu lima belas menit penuh. Dia diberkahi dengan cukup baik, dadanya tidak kecil, jadi untuk mengikatnya butuh banyak usaha, dan itu juga sedikit sakit sampai dia membuat mereka duduk dengan sempurna.
Setelah itu, dia bergegas berpakaian. Pakaiannya biasa saja, kaus sederhana, diikuti sweter longgar, dan celana jins yang sudah dicuci.
Jiang Yingyue tampak seperti bintang pop, wajahnya yang tampan dibingkai oleh rambutnya yang masih basah, matanya berkilau seperti langit berbintang, dan senyum kasual khas menggantung di bibirnya.
"Jika kamu benar-benar ingin aku makan siang bersamamu, itu harus menjadi hadiahmu atau jika kamu membiarkan aku memperlakukanmu, maka kita akan pergi ke warung hotpot pedas yang aku tahu, di sekitar sekolahku dulu."

"Kamu mau mentraktirku makan siang?" Han Qingshan terkejut. Dia tahu bahwa Jiang Fengmian mencintai uang sama seperti dia mencintai dirinya sendiri, jadi memperlakukan seseorang untuk makan siang adalah hal yang sangat royal baginya.
"Kamu baru saja membelikanku ponsel, belum lagi kamu akan membayar langganan untukku. Paling tidak yang bisa aku lakukan adalah menawarkan untuk membayar makan siangmu, tapi aku tidak punya banyak uang, jadi hotpot pedas hanya itu yang saya mampu. "
Jiang Yingyue tidak malu dengan kata-katanya. Dia tahu dia miskin, dan Han Qingshan tahu dia miskin. Tidak perlu menyembunyikan dan berpura-pura, dia bisa jujur dengan teman sejati pertamanya, dan kejujuran ini membuatnya sangat bahagia.
"Saya belum pernah memiliki hotpot sebelumnya," kata Han Qingshan merenungkan, tetapi pada akhirnya, dia masih berubah pikiran. "Undang aku untuk hotpot lain kali," katanya. "Aku sudah memesan meja di tempat yang sangat terkenal untuk makan siang. Ini, tentu saja, traktirku karena aku memaksamu untuk mengikutiku."
"Apakah mereka akan membiarkanku masuk?" Jiang Yingyue hanya bisa bertanya-tanya. Dia mengenakan pakaian yang sangat kasual, dan itu dari merek yang paling umum.
Apa tidak apa-apa baginya untuk pergi ke restoran kelas atas yang terlihat seperti ini? Seolah-olah dia merasakan pikiran Jiang Yingyue, Han Qingshan mengetuk dahinya, "Berhenti berpikir berlebihan," katanya dengan lembut.

Some people are lucky, some aren't, some - have terrible luck. Our "hero" is of the latter kind. During young age he got into an accident, which allowed him to learn the fact that he belongs to a rare group of people.. People diagnosed with lung cancer, which he, however survived. Can't say he's lucky, as his life went downhill from that point... Our story happens years later, when his fate decides to make a loop and throw him in the same kind of accident. He gets hit by a truck. Surviving the crash, suffering just a few scratches, he is ultimately "lucky" to find himself out of the hospital in no time.. however every bit of good luck always brings him terrible luck afterwards. This time pushing him maybe a bit too far.. How far? Making him vanish without a trace and find himself in the middle of an unknown forrest. Doesn't sound bad? He can consider himself lucky? Just wait and see...It can always get worse.. always.. .... Congratulations, you've made it through the intro and into the author note! If you by any chance missed the tags and didn't read the warning, please do that now. I really recommend you to. Before you jump to reading, and unintentionally scar yourself, do mind that the story is about a dark, unforgiving world, a world in which you have more opportunities to die a horrible death, than take a piss. Hero doesn't have great luck, he has dumb persistance, he doesn't go through any trial with a breeze, he pays the price of blood, flesh and tears to live..and will be paying for every mistake.. No one outright explains anything to him, just as us for the most part - he is not sure what the hell is going on.. Some real survival tactics are used as a base of the descriptions, they are as important to the world and character as any other element.. Mind that the story starts really slow, but as the stone starts rolling downhill - the pace gets faster.. Every tag for this novel has a reason to be there, so if you don't see the particular element there, don't panic.. it's either well camoufalged, subtle or simply not encountered as of yet. Big thanks to Hobbo, Enyhrye and Hveth! ...not only pointing that the description could be better, but providing invaluable input.. and being patient enough to give fleshed out advice.
