Chapter 120 We are all of the same origin
Bai Yexiu brought several thugs down and had them drive the Mi6 to the car disposal station.
In the dead of night, faint screams could always be heard coming from that unfinished building.
Bai Yexiu sat down on a stone bench about 10 meters away from the unfinished building, silently watching the building swaying precariously in the wind.
…………
Bai Yeshou was initially transferred to London as a candidate for the action team leader, while Jack Ross was transferred there shortly afterward.
Jack Ross is a mixed-race young man with beautiful amber eyes. He always smiles and takes care of everyone in a gentle and kind manner, making it impossible to guess why such a person would join the organization.
When Bai Yexiu first met Jack Ross, his heart seemed to skip a beat.
Jack Rose's face bears at least a 60% resemblance to his!
The most distinctive features of the Baiye family are their beautiful amber eyes, pale skin, and delicate features. In fact, their eyes also contain patterns resembling shards of glass, varying in depth, making them appear even more like fragments of amber upon close inspection. These patterns are unique to the Baiye family, but are often overlooked.
Bai Yexiu's eyes had it, and so did Jack Ross's, though not as clearly as Bai Yexiu's.
Based on this alone, Bai Yexiu could be certain that Jack Ross had the blood of his clan flowing through his veins.
When Jack Ross first met Bai Yeshu, he was also shocked. He never expected that someone would look so much like him, even though he was an orphan who had been abandoned by his mother in an orphanage when he was young.
Jack Ross had an indescribable feeling about Bai Yeshou, as if there was some unseen bond between them.
The thought of him eventually being arrested and sent to prison or even the execution ground stirred up a strange feeling of reluctance in Jack Ross's heart.
They hit it off immediately, as if they had known each other for a long time. They were very compatible, their ideas were often in sync, and they had endless things to talk about. To outsiders, they looked like very close brothers. Even Ricard, who was just an assistant at the time, was a little jealous of Jack Ross's good relationship with Bai Yeshu.
Out of curiosity, and also because he wanted to prove something, Bai Yexiu secretly investigated Jack Ross's background thoroughly, and the result was exactly as he expected—
Bai Yexiu recalled hearing his family talk about his mother, Bai Yesheng, when he was a child. They said Bai Yesheng went missing for two whole years when she was 17, and didn't return home until she was 19, looking a little heavier. Bai Yexiu spent several months investigating and came to this conclusion—
It turned out that shortly after getting lost, Bai Yesheng met the young master of a nouveau riche family from Russia. This man was a womanizer and a gambler, but the love-struck Bai Yesheng was captivated by this man who simply struck up a conversation with her.
Because the White Night Clan possesses countless riches passed down through generations, enough for this backward religious family to live on for several generations, most of them, except for those who go out to buy things, will never step out of that iron gate in their entire lives, and naturally, they are unaware of the wickedness of human nature.
Bai Yesheng is pregnant with that man's child.
To conceive a child with someone from another tribe—this was a taboo within the tribe. Because of that hateful cult, the White Night tribe had followed the custom of endogamy for generations, so very few children appeared normal. They also suffered from extremely debilitating genetic diseases.
Of course, each generation will miraculously produce one or two children who appear perfectly normal, without any defects or deformities, and without any intellectual disabilities; some may even be geniuses. But even these "chosen ones" within the clan still share the characteristic of short lifespans.
Bai Yesheng, Bai Yedong, Bai Yexiu. This family is the so-called "chosen ones." (Remember? Bai Yedong is Bai Yexiu's biological father; see the chapter "[Deliberately Buried Memories and Terrible Outcomes]")
Since becoming pregnant, Bai Yesheng had been neglected by that man. She knew she had violated a taboo within her clan, and she couldn't return to that home with the child. So she decided to go along with it and live with this man.
Soon, the man was penniless and became a heavily indebted unemployed man. He even considered selling the beautiful Bai Yesheng to someone with ill intentions for money.
At this time, Bai Yesheng had just given birth to her child, whom she named Jason. Fortunately, the child did not have any physical deformities or intellectual disabilities, but unsurprisingly, he also inherited the Bai family's unique hereditary disease.
This genetic disease is one of the reasons why the White Night Clan has such a short lifespan. It causes them to suffer from a burning sensation in their internal organs from birth. When they reach their teens or twenties, the disease stops their growth, and their physical appearance is forever frozen at that point in time. When they enter the stage of stopped growth, it means that their life has entered a countdown of up to 5 years.
Ultimately, they will die from multiple organ failure.
Bai Yesheng felt immense guilt towards this child whose fate was predetermined from birth, but she couldn't find a job to support him. He didn't know how to live; for over a year, she had only been that man's kept woman, and without that man, she knew nothing.
Until that man heard from somewhere that Bai Yesheng was pregnant with his child, he actually tried to sell Jason, who was still an infant, to a black clinic to be used as a surgical experiment for money.
Bai Yesheng made a firm decision: she should stay far away from this man.
One late night, Bai Yesheng dropped Jason off in front of a local orphanage.
She still chose to go home. She concealed her past and lied to her people, saying that she had simply gotten lost and had been working outside for two years.

She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland.

Bai Yexiu did not choose to confess to Jack Ross. He was grateful that, by a twist of fate, his only remaining member of his clan had appeared by his side.
Meanwhile, Jack Ross was also secretly investigating Bai Yexiu. He found a strand of Bai Yexiu's hair on the floor of Bai Yexiu's bedroom and took it to the hospital for analysis.
At this moment, Jack Rothdot wished that White Nightshade was not related to him by blood, and the words on that report were so glaringly obvious—
He really wanted to send his own brother to the execution platform.
He had longed for family affection since childhood, and now that he had finally obtained it, he was about to destroy it with his own hands.
They had a wonderful year.
Jack Ross has gathered enough evidence and intelligence over the past year to hand over to Mi6 headquarters, and together with headquarters, he has planned a raid.
He knew that since he had chosen the path of justice from the beginning, he could no longer regret it.
He wanted to spend the last moments he had with Bai Yexiu, to be the real Bai Yexiu for once, to accompany this corrupted Bai Yexiu.
That morning, they went to the amusement park and the home theater...
Jack Ross could see that beneath his deep black exterior lay the image of a simple and sunny child.
From morning to afternoon, they explored all the places that offered entertainment, and only returned to their apartment as night fell.
As Jack Ross walked down the apartment corridor, the closer he got to that door, the more regretful he felt.
He wondered if he hadn't joined Mi6 back then, would he have avoided the agonizing and painful moment that was about to unfold?
On one hand, there is the justice he yearns for; on the other, there are the loved ones he longs for.
"Ross! You'll trip and fall if you don't watch where you're going!" Bai Yexiu hopped around a few meters in front of Jack Ross, a broad smile on his face, then held up the pink pastry he hadn't even eaten much of.
"Want to try this? You've never had this before, have you? It's soft, sweet, and super delicious!"
