Chapter 512: Chapter 516: Can We Crown Him as Best Actor?
Ran Xiangsi lightly tossed out a remark, wiped the tear streaks from her face, bypassed Lou Xinyu, and left the kitchen as well.
When it comes to sharp tongues, who wouldn’t know how?
Lou Xinyu won’t get any advantage from her here...
Seeing Xiangsi come out, Fu Jingxuan hurriedly followed.
"Xiangsi, what did you just say to Xing Chen?"
"I cut ties completely. What else is there to say?" Xiangsi shrugged, forcing a smile as if nothing was wrong.
But the more she acted this way, the more Fu Jingxuan knew how heartbroken she really was...
Since she had indeed broken up with Xing Chen, he could now take her to find their master without any qualms.
"It’s good that you broke up. Xiangsi, actually, I’ve been hiding something from you too." Fu Jingxuan led Xiangsi to the door of a secluded private room upstairs and spoke mysteriously.
Ran Xiangsi immediately knew she had acted well when she heard this. It seemed like Fu Jingxuan was about to tell her something significant.
She had imagined countless times what Fu Jingxuan might say...
Who knew, when he started talking, it would be...
"Actually, I am your fellow disciple. After the master left you all those years ago, he took me in as a disciple. I came to A City to find you. Master is just behind this door. Come in with me." Putting on a show means committing to the act, and Fu Jingxuan thought the master’s plan was good, as it would bring him closer to Xiangsi.
"What?" Xiangsi’s eyes widened in utter astonishment.
She had long suspected Fu Jingxuan had a mysterious background and odd behavior, but she didn’t expect him to be in cahoots with that fake master, claiming to be her junior brother?
Ha! When the master took her in all those years ago, he had said he never takes in disciples. If it weren’t for her pitiful state, he wouldn’t have taught her.
This was why over all these years, the master never showed her any photos, didn’t call, and didn’t meet her.
Now it was clear. The real master disappeared for years, and the fake one had been quite active!
Does he really think she’s a fool, so easily deceived?
Seeing Xiangsi’s shocked expression, Fu Jingxuan presumed she just needed time to accept it and patted her shoulder, continuing, "I didn’t reveal myself directly because master instructed me so. But he has come to see you now. With him and me here, you will never be alone nor bullied again."
Ran Xiangsi listened, dazed, only able to nod.
How did she not realize Fu Jingxuan was such a good actor? Should he be crowned the Best Actor?
"So... so what you’re saying is, you’ve always known I am your senior sister? Since when?"
"Master always had your photos, from when you were little till now. For all these years, I’ve known you through those photos... and through master, I learned about your personality, where you grew up, the schools you went to..." Fu Jingxuan poured out everything he’d held back for years in one breath.
He truly wanted Ran Xiangsi to integrate into the relationship between him and their master as soon as possible, to accept him...
If possible, he really wished he could show her his heart!
All these years, he had been lurking in the shadows, watching her, seeing her grow up, seeing everything about her...
"..." Ran Xiangsi couldn’t help but tremble all over!
