The needle struck nine before household matters had been settled.
In the room, He Yi hung the cartoon keychain on his bag. He glanced at He
Chen, who stared, enraptured by the bookmark tucked between the pages of his book. Hesitantly, he began, “She seems different from ordinary girls.”
He Chen smiled, highlighting his fair, refined features. He turned to his brother and said, “It is a good thing, isn’t it?”
Other girls always confused them for each other, but He Jing did not.
Other girls treated them as the same person, but He Jing did not.
Even Cheng Yi was not as considerate as He Jing, having bought them the same gift.
They had learned to live with it for the longest time. He Jing’s intrusion in their lives broke the status quo, flattering them and making them feel like individuals and not just a pair of twins.
He Yi eyed the two pairs of sneakers sitting side by side at the door. They were brand new and very expensive. “Who would have thought we would hate each other despite sharing our mother’s womb?” He Yi snarked.
“You’re the one who’s spiteful; I’ve never hated you,” He Chen tittered lightly. He Yi did not so much as bat an eye.
They were born less than a second apart. Not only did they look alike, but they could also sense each other’s emotions.
He Chen disliked him in the same way he disliked his brother. It was a fact.
He Chen mulled over the day’s events and said, “Don’t be too optimistic. What if she just bought two different gifts? Who’s to say she won’t become like Xiao Yi and everyone else? There’s still a chance she’ll treat us like the same person.
Today might have been a fluke.”
He Yi remained silent. He had a hunch that He Jing was not like that, but he could not help but feel uncertain as no one had ever treated him and He Chen as separate individuals before.
Conversation soon died between the two of them. When not discussing important matters, they almost always ignored each other and did their own things.
A while later, He Zhou entered. An oppressive gloom replaced his usual smiles, and dark clouds hung over his brows. He seemed to be in an extremely bad mood.
In the He family, He Yi had the best relationship with He Zhou, far better than He Chen. When he saw him, He Yi asked softly, “What’s wrong, Third Brother? Who’s made you upset? Why do you look like a ghost?”
He Zhou looked up but did not answer. He ignored He Yi and went straight to bed to lie down.
He Yi’s eyelids twitched. He Zhou was not as stuffy as He Ning and would usually tell others when something made him unhappy. This was the first time He Yi had seen him causing a scene.
Based on his understanding of He Zhou, He Yi immediately deduced that the trouble stemmed from He Jing. He could not help but ask, “Where’s He Jing?
What’s she doing now?”
“He Jing has gone to the bus stop to send Big Brother off,” He Zhou replied icily, his back turned away from the twins.
He Yuan still had to return to his campus dormitory.
He Yi’s heart skipped a beat, surprised. Usually, He Zhou would be the one to send off He Yuan. Could He Zhou be unhappy because He Jing had taken his place?
“Sister He Jing seems to have a good relationship with Big Brother.” He Zhou closed his eyes, his mind drifting to He Jing. ‘Not only is she on good terms with He Yuan, she’s also conquered the hearts of the He family!’ he thought.
Before he entered the room, he spied He Ning sitting in the living room, pretending to listen to music while tutoring He Xiaoguo and helping him with his homework. Yet, not once had his eyes strayed from He Jing’s figure, even as she sent He Yuan off. His adoration for He Jing could not be hidden and was no less than that he had for Cheng Yi.
A basketball had won his heart..
