Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 278

Chapter 278: Duan Yixin’s Plan
Xuan Ruiquan looked at Duan Yixin and said, “You fell asleep while waiting, and I didn’t want to wake you. Now, we are lining up to get out of town.”

Hearing what he said, Duan Yixin raised the window curtain while leaning on Xuan Ruiquan. She looked out and saw that it was just dawning. Then she pulled the curtains down and yawned again.

Xuan Ruiquan hugged her from behind and asked, “How about you sleep a little longer?”

Duan Yixin shook her head, sat up, and said, “I want to see what is going on outside.”

Xuan Ruiquan felt a little disappointed after losing her warmth. He sighed and said, “The carriage is still moving. Be careful when you go out. Call me if anything happens.”

Duan Yixin turned to look at him and smiled, “Mhm, I will be careful.”

Just when she was about to ask the Chi siblings about the situation outside, the merchant who was talking to them suddenly gasped in surprise. He staggered a few steps back when his sight landed on Duan Yixin’s face.

Seeing this, his men quickly supported him and exclaimed, “Master, be careful.”

Duan Yixin raised her eyes to look at the source of the sound and was shocked to see a middle-aged man looking at her with tears streaming down his face.

After a moment of silence, Duan Yixin approached Chi Xinru and asked in a low voice, “Xinru, who is he? Do you know each other?”

When Chi Xinru saw what had just happened, she was also shocked by the merchant’s reaction when he saw Duan Yixin. She scratched her head and said, “He is a merchant from the imperial capital city. We were just having a casual conversation while waiting for our turn to leave the town.”

Hearing this, Duan Yixin looked at the merchant again and found that, in addition to him, several people in their group were also looking at her in disbelief.

Duan Yixin felt awkward and said, “I’m going back inside.”

Before Duan Yixin opened the curtain and got back to the carriage, the merchant suddenly shouted, “Young Lady, please wait a moment!”

After saying that, he couldn’t wait to take a few steps closer to Duan Yixin. Seeing this, Chi Xinru quickly pulled Duan Yixin and shielded her while Chi Xiyou looked at the merchant warily.

“Master Zhan, what do you want?” Chi Xiyou asked coldly.

Zhan Wenmin came to his senses and took a step back. He took a few deep breaths before he could control his emotions.

He clasped his fists and said, “Please forgive my rudeness. I was very surprised when I saw your friend. She looks very similar to my Master’s wife, who disappeared seventeen years ago.”

Hearing this, Chi Xiyou and Chi Xinru exchanged glances and saw the same surprise in each other’s eyes. The siblings looked at Duan Yixin again and found that she was looking at Zhan Wenmin thoughtfully. Seeing this, the siblings exchanged looks again, and then Chi Xiyou looked at Zhan Wenmin.

He calmly said, “Master Zhan, the three of us are childhood friends and have never left our village before. Our friend’s mother is also a villager. It’s not surprising that in this world, some people look very similar but have nothing to do with each other.”

As soon as these words came out, the captain’s eyes lit up. He walked up to Zhan Wenmin and whispered, “General Zhan, that young lady said that Madam is a villager in Yunshan Village. Why don’t you ask where these three young friends come from?”

Upon hearing the captain’s suggestion, Zhan Wenmin’s eyes lit up, and he nodded. While the two were whispering, the Chi siblings and Duan Yixin were staring at them. After briefly chatting with the captain, Zhan Wenmin smiled at the three of them.

Looking at Zhan Wenmin’s smile, Chi Xiyou whispered, “Be careful. Don’t be fooled by his words.”

Hearing this, Chi Xinru and Duan Yixin nodded. Seeing the three of them look at him warily, Zhan Wenmin thought for a while and said, “Young Master Chi, may I ask, where are you from?”

Chi Xiyou narrowed his eyes and thought, ‘Maybe when I tell him that we are from Yunshan Village, he will realize that he has recognized the wrong person.’

Thinking of this, Chi Xiyou said, “We are from Yunshan Village.”

As soon as these words came out, Zhan Wenmin’s eyes widened with excitement. Chi Xinru saw this and whispered, “Elder Brother, why does he look more excited than before?”

This time, even Chi Xiyou was confused. Just when the Chi siblings were confused, Duan Yixin recalled what Madam Chi had said to her before they left Yunshan Village. Since she wants to find the background and memories of the original Duan Yixin, she must first find out who Grandpa Duan’s enemies are.

Duan Yixin has been observing Zhan Wenmin since she came out from the carriage. After seeing Zhan Wenmin’s and his companions’ reactions, she suspected that they must know something about the identity of the original Duan Yixin.

Grandpa Duan reminded her in the letter to hide her medical skills. Madam Chi and Chi Junheng warned her not to go to the imperial capital city unless forced by situations. In addition to this, no one knew about the original Duan Yixin’s father. Just now, Zhan Wenmin also said that she looked very similar to his Master’s wife.

Based on all of the information she had collected so far, Duan Yixin was sure that Grandpa Duan’s enemies and the original Duan Yixin’s father were probably in the imperial capital city.

Since all the clues point to the imperial capital city, Duan Yixin has no choice but to go there if she wants to find all the answers. Moreover, she also wants to meet with You Xiaocheng, and Xuan Ruiquan said that he was also in the imperial capital city.

Duan Yixin lowered her eyes and thought, ‘Everything seems to be disconnected, but it is also connected in some way. So far, all clues point to the imperial capital city. In order to get the tiger’s cubs, I had to enter the tiger’s lair. But I must be careful when I go there so as not to implicate General Xuan, Elder Brother Xiyou, and Xinru.’
