The Master s Mask Unveiled Again

Chapter 204: Chapter 203 Have you noticed any changes in yourself?

“Her Secret”

Shouhao repeated the book’s title, inexplicably feeling a bit interested in reading it.

Panghao winked at him, stealthily glancing at the surrounding classmates, and lowered his voice.

“This book is still being serialized. However, I’ve heard some insider news that the first volume of the physical book is going to be released in a few days. I’ve set my alarm already, just waiting for the book to go on sale!”

Lu Mian’s gaze fixed on the book in her hand, slightly lost in thought.

Unnoticed by Panghao, after he had finished recommending the book to Shouhao, he patted his chest with righteousness, “Mian bro, I’ll snap it up for you! This romance novel is definitely your type! But the heroine in it returns from being inside a book, you know what ‘entering a book’ means, right…”

He babbled on, enlightening Lu Mian and Shouhao.

Shouhao was skeptical. “Entering a book is quite unrealistic, isn’t it? My superhero screenplay is more reliable, either relying on technology or mutations, closer to Mian bro’s experiences…”

“Why are you taking a novel so seriously!”

As the two argued, Lu Mian put down the romance novel in her hand, her expression indescribable.

She rested her chin in one hand, while turning a pen with the other, and spoke indifferently.

“Theoretically speaking, the worlds of novels, games, films, and even dreams are not entirely fictional. The moment they are created, the doors to their worlds are opened. They exist within another dimension, separated from our real world by a dimensional barrier. When technological power is sufficiently advanced to break through this dimensional barrier, entering books or games is not impossible.”

Lu Mian said it with all seriousness, leaving Panghao and Shouhao with their mouths agape, stunned.

So the most serious one was here.

Although they didn’t quite understand, agreeing and praising seemed like the right thing to do.

During the break, Sui Yuan managed to hand over that box of painkillers to Lu Mian.

Sui Yuan chuckled softly, “Director Qi sent them.”

Lu Mian silently took them, looked at them for a few moments, and when she looked up again at the smile on Sui Yuan’s face, there was something enigmatic about it.

She put away the box of medicine, staring at Sui Yuan with a somewhat solemn expression, as if wary of something.

“Did he come to you?”

Sui Yuan nodded, “He did probe a little. But… his attitude was ambiguous. It’s unlikely that he has guessed our true relationship.”

Though that’s what she said, Lu Mian had already quickly reviewed Sui Yuan’s life story in her mind.

It was one she had edited.

A 20-year-old girl raised at the Wucheng orphanage, sponsored by Su Qinghe of the Su Family to study, with reliable information that could be verified, with no loopholes.

As for her relationship with Sui Yuan, it had been edited to “Four years ago, Sui Yuan fell into the water and was saved by Lu Mian, who was passing by.”

After carefully recalling it all, Lu Mian found no issues and felt at ease.

It was no problem if she exposed herself, but she would never allow the four of them to be implicated in the kidnapping case again.

Seeing that Lu Mian was a bit tense, Sui Yuan pursed her lips, gently caressing her cheek with a hand, somewhat soothingly.

“Mianmian, you’re overthinking it.”

“Hm?”

Sui Yuan patiently and gently explained, “I think Director Qi’s mind isn’t really on the kidnapping case. He must have other motives.”

“What motive?”

Sui Yuan looked at Lu Mian, who was completely unaware, and laughed softly under her breath.

Silly Mianmian, still oblivious to this point.

However, these things, only when the person themselves realizes it, does it count as true emotion. No matter how others hint at it, it would only make the person resist.

She caressed Lu Mian’s delicate skin again, sticking out her tongue playfully, “You’ll find out later.”

“…” Yuanyuan is a bit different today.

Not just Sui Yuan was different.

Sui Yuan’s eyes twinkled as she carefully asked Lu Mian, “Mianmian, have you noticed any changes in yourself?”
