Chapter 541 -541 Yue Mingzhu’s Identity Revealed

Yue Mingzhu lowered her head.

She let out a long sigh:

“Gong Caiyi, you really are annoying.”

She didn’t dare to look into Jiang Fan’s eyes.

Didn’t dare to see his expression.

Taking a deep breath, her voice lowered:

“That’s right.”

“I am the Desires Sect Master.”

“Yue Mingzhu is my alias.”

“I have been deceiving you, always pretending to be the same age as you.”

“In fact, I am over thirty, but fell for a junior.”

“I am unprincipled, disregarding ethics, a woman deserving of public contempt!”

“Is this… enough?”

After uttering the last three words.

Her fragrant shoulders trembled.

A hot, glistening tear fell onto the snow at her feet.

Melting a deep pit in the thin layer of newly fallen snow.

Gong Caiyi stood stunned.

For the first time, she felt she was a bad person.

Had done something extremely wrong.

What sin has Sect Master Yu committed?

She only wanted to be with the one she loved.

She too, like Gong Caiyi, was insecure about her age.

That’s why she concealed her identity, approached Jiang Fan under the name Yue Mingzhu.

She carefully hid her unsightly side.

Merely to show the best version of herself in front of Jiang Fan.

But Gong Caiyi exposed her.

In front of Jiang Fan, in front of the one she cared about the most, laid bare all her weak points.

With one sentence.

Destroyed all her hopes for the future.

Left her in despair.

So despairing she denied herself.

At this moment, Yue Mingzhu had no place to hide.

She lowered her head, began to walk away.

Her tear-blurred vision made it hard to see the snow beneath her feet.

She didn’t want to look anymore.

Wished she could disappear on the spot, vanish completely from the world.

But.

After taking just two steps.

A strong hand grabbed her arm.

Jiang Fan’s calm voice softly reached her ears.

“Hey.”

“So you really are the Desires Sect Master.”

“Turns out I wasn’t wrong.”

Yue Mingzhu stopped, her voice hoarse: “You knew?”

“Since when?”

Jiang Fan chuckled: “When you kept singing praises for the Desires Sect Master.”

“Back then, I thought.”

“Who would praise someone so tirelessly?”

“Unless that someone is herself.”

Yue Mingzhu felt even more ashamed.

Turns out, Jiang Fan had guessed long ago.

Her tears flowed even more freely.

Her heart filled with sorrow.

She had become an unwitting clown, tirelessly performing her flaws for others.

She covered her face, utterly ashamed!

Turned to run away.

But Jiang Fan’s hand clung tightly to her arm.

“Let me go.”

“Is my embarrassment not enough for you?”

Yue Mingzhu struggled to free her arm.

But the more she struggled, the tighter Jiang Fan’s grip became.

Until a soft sigh made her stop suddenly.

“Whether Yue Mingzhu or the Desires Sect Master.”

“Was it not you who gave me your only Defensive Magical Treasure?”

“Who tricked me into leaving, facing two War Generals alone, nearly losing your life, was it not you?”

“Meticulously preparing life-saving items for me, was it not you?”

Yue Mingzhu’s tears, like kites with broken strings, kept falling.

Turns out Jiang Fan remembered everything she did.

Without missing a single thing.

“Stop talking.”

She wiped away her tears, but more welled up, blurring her vision.

The tears seemed uncontrollable.

Constantly flowing out.

Because with her identity exposed.

There would be no more Yue Mingzhu.

From now on, only the Desires Sect Master and the disciple of the Green Cloud Sect.

There would be no more intersection between them.

Suddenly.

A warm hand reached out, wiping away her tears.

Magically, her uncontrollable tears stopped.

She looked up through her misty eyes, and Jiang Fan’s gentle face came into view.

His voice was tenderly piercing her heart.

“Haven’t you understood?”

“Who you are doesn’t matter.”

“What matters is, everything we shared together was real, and that’s enough.”

Yue Mingzhu looked away, too ashamed to meet Jiang Fan’s gaze.

Sobbing: “Don’t you blame me for deceiving you?”

Jiang Fan asked back: “Did you deceive me with malice?”

Yue Mingzhu hurriedly said: “Of course not!”

“I… I was just afraid you’d disdain me.”

“Disdain my age.”

Jiang Fan looked at her youthful eighteen-year-old face and couldn’t help but laugh:

“In another ten years, you will still be eighteen, and I will be nearly thirty.”

“Who would disdain whom, then?”

Yue Mingzhu, feeling inferior, said: “Don’t comfort me.”

“No matter how unchanging my appearance, my actual age is still thirty.”

“And you are only eighteen.”

“The gap is too wide.”

Jiang Fan laughed: “Aren’t we still friends?”

“Does the age gap between friends matter?”

Yue Mingzhu mocked herself.

What she wanted was not a mere friendship.

The age gap was truly an insurmountable chasm; she cared about it, and Jiang Fan would care even more.

Gong Caiyi felt a bit bitter too.

Her face gradually darkened.

But, Jiang Fan immediately added:

“If it were a romantic relationship, we haven’t yet reached that point.”

“If we do… why would I care?”

“Not to mention your body will always look eighteen, which is every man’s dream of a celestial wife.”

“Even if you truly were thirty, isn’t that the prime of a woman’s life?”

“I like both.”

What?

Her cheeks flushed, heart pounding, she teasingly scolded: “You, you always sweet-talk me.”

Jiang Fan, laughing, said:

“That I can’t prove.”

“Unless we truly have that fate in the future, and we come together.”

Yue Mingzhu stomped her foot in embarrassment: “What nonsense are you talking?”

“Who wants to come together with you?”

“Shameless!”

Her neck and cheeks reddened.

But her misty eyes were bright.

A heart shattered into eight pieces began to mend.

Turns out, her deepest insecurity, her age, was not an issue to Jiang Fan!

It was a prison of her own making.

Restraining herself.

Her heart lightened like never before.

Even Gong Caiyi beside them didn’t dare to look into Jiang Fan’s eyes as she used to.

“Yue Mingzhu, we are still friends, trustworthy friends.”

Jiang Fan let go of her arm.

Yue Mingzhu broke into a smile through her tears.

Being friends was already satisfying, very satisfying.

Just now, she was in such despair that the sky seemed to collapse.

Thinking of this.

She glared at Gong Caiyi viciously: “Disappointed, aren’t you, Gong Caiyi!”

“Jiang Fan did not disdain me!”

Gong Caiyi, feeling uncomfortable, explained: “I didn’t mean anything else.”

“Just worried you might have ill intentions towards Jiang Fan.”

“Didn’t expect you were truly sincere about Jiang Fan.”

She also felt wronged.

Who would have thought the Desires Sect Master, who seemed to play around, would actually be moved?

She thought the Desires Sect Master was just toying with Jiang Fan.

Hmm?

Yue Mingzhu, with her cunning mind, sensed something wasn’t right.

She put her hands behind her back and circled around Gong Caiyi, observing her from head to toe.

Making Gong Caiyi feel uneasy: “What are you looking at?”

Yue Mingzhu, with her hand under her chin and a playful look in her eyes:

“I am wondering why you care about Jiang Fan’s matters?”

“Jiang Fan is neither your disciple nor your sect member, not even your legitimate junior.”

“Even if you’re worried I might do something to Jiang Fan, you should have advised the people of the Green Cloud Sect, right?”

“Why would you step in yourself?”
