Yu Rou's Decision

"Sorry for keeping this a secret from you two, Meixiu…" Yu Rou sighed a moment later.

"No, I should be the one apologizing. There have been many moments where I pondered about telling you. But seeing you so happy to be his 'little sister', I didn't want to ruin it for you or him by tearing apart your status as brother and sister." Meixiu shook her head.

"I understand. After all, that's also why I didn't reveal the fact that I knew about it. I didn't want to ruin our relationship as siblings." Yu Rou smiled.

She then turned to look at Chu Liuxiang and continued, "Can you tell me about Brother Yuan's life in the orphanage? I have always been curious, but I was also too scared to ask about it since that would give everything away."

"Of course! It would be my pleasure!"

To Yu Rou's surprise, Chu Liuxiang didn't object to her request, as she was certain that Chu Liuxiang would rather keep everything a secret just to tease her.
