The Master's Mask Unveiled Again - Chapter 65:
Chapter 65: Chapter 64 The Feeling of Being Cared About
Meanwhile, at Kunpeng High School, the campus was buzzing.
This was the time when everyone rested and played around, leisurely listening to Lu Xinnuan’s broadcast.
But no one expected that the broadcast, which had been running smoothly, suddenly stopped.
Just as everyone was guessing if the speakers were broken, Lu Xinnuan’s voice reappeared!
And with it came a psychologist, Dr. Ye!
Their conversation was broadcasted in its entirety, leaving the students in shock, as if they’d stumbled upon some major secret.
Many were confused and didn’t know who Dr. Ye and Lu Mian were.
But they could grasp the gist of the situation—it was Lu Xinnuan who had posted on the school forum demanding Lu Mian to get out of Kunpeng High School.
Moreover!
They were twin sisters!
My god, even TV dramas wouldn’t dare to script this!
The most shocked were the students in Senior Year (1) class, especially those who were close friends with Lu Xinnuan, each of them staring wide-eyed.
Originally, Lu Xinnuan had insisted she didn’t know Lu Mian, but it turned out not only did they know each other, they had shared the same womb!
Thinking about it, it was clear how deceptive Lu Xinnuan’s initial words were!
In an instant, Lu Xinnuan’s image as the sweet goddess shattered to the ground.
Meanwhile, in Junior Year (25) class, Fatty Hao and Shouhao excitedly pointed at the classroom’s loudspeakers, shocked as they approached Lu Mian.
“Mian bro, you’re actually twins with the school’s beauty… But you two look nothing alike!”
“Oh,” Lu Mian said nonchalantly twirling his pen, “Fraternal, that’s all.”
“Why did she set you up though? She looks so pure…”
“Yeah, Mian bro, what’s the meaning of the 726 kidnapping case?”
“Was it that nationwide incident from two years ago? Is there some inside story?”
There were discussions all around, and the attitudes towards Lu Mian began to shift.
“Quiet, quiet, listen to what Lu Xinnuan is going to say next!”
The classroom fell silent as a chicken coop, everyone all ears for the gossip.
While everyone was talking about the sisters’ affair, Lu Mian, the person in question, felt like an outsider, only aware of the noise around him.
He was wondering what the hell was going on again?
Deleting the post, trapping Lu Xinnuan into revealing the truth—it must be that man’s doing.
Tsch.
His lips curled slightly, and he looked out the window with a detached gaze, somewhat absent-minded.
Being cared for in this way… seemed, well, not bad.
In the dean of students’ office.
Xiao Qimo had been busy in front of the computer for a while, then he leaned back on the sofa, satisfied, and closed his eyes to rest.
He looked the picture of peaceful, cultured, and gentle refinement, as if he hadn’t just broken into the school’s broadcast system, covertly controlling the loudspeakers.
And Lu Xinnuan, who was utterly unaware of this, only confessed because she thought no one heard her.
She seemed to become more resentful and agitated as she spoke.
“It seems you know quite a bit, Dr. Ye,” she said quietly, “Yes, the 726 kidnapping case was not so simple. At that time, the kidnappers took both me and Lu Mian, asking our parents to raise money for our ransom. Five million for one person, ten million for two, without the money, there would be no rescue.”
Lu Xinnuan finished speaking with a sinister tone, seemingly with a hint of pride in her voice.
“My family could only gather five million, and my parents had to choose between the two children. Heh… Lu Mian has never been likable, nobody could control her, so what right did she have to make my parents choose her? The child my parents loved was me, and of course, I was the one they would save first!”
“I heard, your uncle’s family is quite wealthy…” This was what Ye Jinwen couldn’t understand, borrowing money shouldn’t have been difficult for them.
“Dr. Ye, you’re too naive! My uncle’s family is wealthy, but that’s their money. My parents had already borrowed nearly five million from them, how could they possibly ask for ten million more?! Even if Lu Mian was saved, could she ever earn five million to repay the debt in her lifetime? What about my father, my mother, and me? Are we not supposed to live?”
