After learning the truth that Xiao Wu was a Soul Beast,
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing felt as though they had been struck by lightning. They stood frozen in place, their mouths slightly agape, their expressions a kaleidoscope of emotions.
There was shock, incomprehension, and confusion...
Ning Rongrong was the first to recover. Her eyes lit up at once. "Holy crap, th-this-this is way too cool! This is my first time seeing a living Shapeshift Soul Beast!"
She grabbed Xiao Wu by the shoulders and looked her up and down, clicking her tongue nonstop.
"Xiao Wu~ are those rabbit ears real?"
"You hid something like this from us? I thought we were besties!"
"Now I finally understand why you acted so strangely after meeting Grandpa Gu that day!"
She grew even more excited. "If you'd told me earlier, I wouldn't have let you worry yourself sick for those days!"
Zhu Zhuqing listened to their conversation, deep in thought.
She knew that what Xiao Wu wanted most right now was their acceptance.
So did Ning Rongrong genuinely think this was cool, or was she wiser than she looked?
She stepped forward and pulled Ning Rongrong aside, then took Xiao Wu's slightly cool hand with a sincere expression. "No matter who you are, you will always be my Third Junior Sister."
She suddenly understood many things.
No wonder Lin Feng had defended Xiao Wu before Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong that day. Had he been standing up for her?
No wonder Xiao Wu had acted so abnormally then and had not even dared to show herself for several days.
She glanced at Lin Feng, thinking that her teacher had probably known Xiao Wu's identity all along.
When she recalled their first meeting with Xiao Wu, that playful smile on Lin Feng's face...
