Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 279

Chapter 279: Lucky And Unlucky
After some consideration, Duan Yixin decided to find more clues from this middle-aged man before heading to the imperial capital city. Duan Yixin got off the carriage and stood in front of Zhan Wenmin before the Chi siblings could stop her.

She smiled and said, “Greetings, Master Zhan.”

Zhan Wenmin looked at her face and couldn’t help but be overwhelmed by emotions and guilt. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said embarrassedly, “Please forgive me, Young Lady. Looking at you, I think of my Master’s wife.”

Duan Yixin nodded and said considerately, “It alright.”

After Zhan Wenmin calmed down, Duan Yixin said, “Master Zhan, you said that I am very similar to your Master’s wife. I wonder what your Master’s wife’s name is?”

Zhan Wenmin hesitated for a moment and said, “Our Master’s wife’s surname is Duan, and her name is Mengling.”

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Duan Yixin but also the Chi siblings were shocked.

Chi Xiyou turned to look at his younger sister and asked in disbelief, “Are we so unlucky that we met someone who knew Xin Xin’s father as soon as we left the village?”

Chi Xinru also couldn’t believe this unbelievable coincidence. They just wanted to save refugees and stumbled upon someone who knew Duan Yixin’s father. This is too unlucky!

Just when the Chi siblings were lamenting their bad luck, Duan Yixin’s eyes lit up. Even if she went through the things left by Grandpa Duan and the original Duan Yixin, there was no information about the original Duan Yixin’s father. Even if she wanted to find her father, she had no clue.

But now, the middle-aged man in front of her actually knew the name of the original Duan Yixin’s mother. In other words, this Master Zhan’s Master is the original Duan Yixin’s father. Isn’t she too lucky? This is incredible!

Zhan Wenmin’s heartbeat quickened when he saw Duan Yixin and the Chi siblings visibly stunned after he told Duan Yixin the name of his Master’s wife. He clenched his hands and asked tremblingly, “Young Lady, what is your name?”

Duan Yixin smiled and said, “My name is Duan Yixin. I think your Master is my father because Duan Mengling is my mother.”

When she finished speaking, not only Zhan Wenmin but also the captain and other soldiers burst into joy. Seeing a group of strong and tall men crying in public, Duan Yixin felt embarrassed for them.

She said awkwardly, “Please calm down. Everyone is looking at you.”

Following her reminder, Zhan Wenmin and the soldier blushed. They quickly wiped away their tears and smiled at her.

Seeing that they calmed down, Duan Yixin breathed a sigh of relief. She said, “Master Zhan, I have a lot to ask you, but I need to send medicine to the refugee camp.”

Zhan Wenmin was surprised to hear that she was going to deliver medicine to the refugee camp. After investigating the situation yesterday, he learned that there was no medicine for this plague, the mortality rate was high, and it was spread through the air.

If someone contracted the plague, they would surely die. He had just found their young lady and couldn’t let her risk her life.

After thinking for a while, he said, “I had planned to go to Yunshan Village before. But now that I have met you here, there is no need for me to go to Yunshan Village anymore.”

Hearing this, Duan Yixin was sure that Zhan Wenmin was looking for her and the original Duan Yixin’s mother.

“Then what is your next plan?” Duan Yixin asked again.

Zhan Wenmin smiled, “I have to report this good news to Master. He has been looking for Madam for more than ten years. If you can return to the imperial capital city with me to see Master, he would be very happy.”

Duan Yixin breathed a sigh of relief as their destination was the same. Seeing that it was almost their turn, she said, “Let’s make a plan together after I deliver the medicine to the refugee camp.”

Zhan Wenmin agreed and waited until Duan Yixin got on her carriage before returning to his carriage. Chi Xinru saw her coming back and asked curiously, “Xin Xin, what are you and Master Zhan talking about?”

Hearing this, Xuan Ruiquan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, “Master Zhan? Who is he?”

Duan Yixin sat next to Xuan Ruiquan and poured herself a cup of water. After drinking the water, she said, “He should be one of my father’s subordinates.”

As soon as these words came out, Chi Xinru’s eyes widened. She grabbed Duan Yixin’s hand and asked, “Have you really found your father?”

Duan Yixin nodded and said, “It seems so. However, I still need to talk to Master Zhan after the medicine is delivered to the refugee camp.”

Seeing the complicated expression on Chi Xinru’s face, she asked, “What’s wrong? Aren’t you happy that I found my father?”

Chi Xinru shook her head and said, “Of course, I’m happy for you. It’s just…”

Duan Yixin noticed her hesitation, thought for a moment, and asked, “Do you know who my father is?”

Chi Xinru shook her head again and said, “I don’t know who your father is.”

“But you know something about him.” Duan Yixin didn’t ask but just stated the truth.

Chi Xinru lowered her eyes and fell into silence. After a few seconds of silence, she sighed and said, “I know something about him. In fact, I overheard Grandpa Duan talking to my father about your father.”

“What do you know?” Duan Yixin asked calmly.

Seeing her calm face, Chi Xinru also calmed down. She said, “The day before Grandpa Duan passed away, he called my father to see him. You don’t remember this, right?”

Duan Yixin nodded, and Chi Xinru continued, “That day, I went to deliver medicine for Grandpa Duan and overheard their conversation. Grandpa Duan said that your father was a high-ranking official in the imperial court, but his family was very chaotic. Grandpa Duan told my father never to let you know about your father.”
