The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel's Disguise-Chapter 247 Weirdos
There are some common beliefs in life. For instance, the Earth is round. This one thing is etched in our minds from a very young age. And it had become deep-rooted within ourselves. The other beliefs would include that after every night come a day just like after every storm will come a ray of sunshine.
Just like those undeniable facts, Xu Mey had grown up with a belief that her Sensei, Ru who saved her life and taught her to see the world in a whole new light was actually a male. And that’s why when she saw Ru in female clothes, she was having no second thoughts as she said, "Sensei, why are you cross-dressing as a girl?" That was the extent of her belief that Ru was a male.
Beside her, Jie choked on air and was left somewhere between laughing and coughing. He wasn’t sure which one he was supposed to do first. Seeing his wife’s expression, he really wanted to pinch her cheeks. Just how could she even question that?
Well, at least, Ru had better control over her emotions and expressions but at this moment, even she was having difficulty keeping a straight face. She knew Xu Mey trusted her without questions. Ru’s existence and value in Xu Mey’s life were only known to her. That’s why until or unless Ru said something from her own mouth, Xu Mey would never believe it.
"My disciple is really..." ’Innocent. Or maybe, I’m too tricky.’ Ru didn’t say those words out. "Tell me, does this avatar looks good on me? Doesn’t Sensei look like a killer beauty?"
Xu Mey looked at her from head to toe and nodded her head vigorously, "Sensei looks amazing in anything. Oddly, you look just like a real woman. You’re the best at disguises as always." She gave two thumbs up to Ru.
Jie wrapped his arm around his wife’s shoulder and said, "Baby, do you think this is a disguise?" 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨m
"Ah-Jie, don’t question my Sensei. I told you I’ll be angry if you said anything to my Sensei. I don’t care even if Sensei is your best friend. I still won’t take your side when it comes to Sensei." Xu Mey seemed upset.
Ru knocked on her head making her yelp and then Xu Mey looked at Ru with an aggrieved expression. "Are you really becoming slow-witted or do you have a blind trust in me?"
"I believe Sensei more than myself," she replied without any hesitation at all.
"Aiyo..." Ru heaved a long sigh and said, "I’m not cross-dressing. I had been doing it all my life. But this is a rare moment when I am willing to let the world see my real self."
"She means, real gender. The real self of hers is too scary for the world," Jie added on.
Xu Mey was not paying attention. Not at all. Her mind was thunderstruck. She could hear buzzing around and couldn’t tell what was real or what was fake. It was like someone stabbed her with a dagger and was twisting it in her guts. It seemed surreal and hard to believe.
"Baby, why are you crying?" Jie was left nervous when he saw the tears trickling down Xu Mey’s face. Her silent tears turned into sobbing as she cried her heart out. "What is wrong? Tell me what’s going on? Did I do something? Did this stupid Ru make you cry? Right?" He glared at Ru and shouted, "Oi! Dumbo! What did you do? Why did you make my baby cry?"
"Have you lost some screws of your head? When did you see me bullying her? Which eye of yours saw me making her cry? Do tell, so I can poke it out of the socket!" Ru argued back while looking like someone who was preparing for a fight.
"Yah!" Jie was about to continue when Xu Mey slapped his arm. "Baby, why are hitting me?"
"Don’t say anything to him. No, her. I mean him. No, no, her. Whatever. Just don’t say anything to sensei." Xu Mey’s words solved the argument between Ru and Jie sooner than it was expected. She turned and stood right before Ru and asked, "Are you really... A woman?"
Ru rubbed her earlobe and said, "At least, my body is of a woman."
Xu Mey nodded her head in understanding and mumbled, "Sensei, you were always my first crush in life. I always admired you as a male god. It’s truly heartbreaking to know that you are a woman." She sniffled as she spoke.
"I know. I was also heartbroken when I figured out that I was a female. I went into shock for a weak because of that." Ru told her life’s dark days of figuring out who she was. It was traumatizing for her to know that she was not a boy. Only she knew how much pride she took in being called ’Young Master Ru’.
"But... Nonetheless," Xu Mey wiped her tears and smiled at her saying, "You are just as gorgeous as you had been forever. Xu Mey still finds Sensei the best."
"Don’t I look weird?" Ru questioned out of curiosity.
"Not at all," Xu Mey shook her head. "Sensei looks amazing in anything. But I never thought Sensei would look so beautiful as a woman. What’s the right word? Ah! Peerless beauty."
"Now that you know who I am, how about the negotiation?" Ru was still stuck on that negotiation of hers.
"About what?"
"Don’t say it!"
Both Jie and Xu Mey had different things to say but they said it at the same time. Ru smiled mischievously at Jie and said, "About your son. I’m the only godmother he has. Just give him to me."
Xu Mey pressed her lips together not knowing how to answer that. While Jie said, "Ru’er, you don’t even know how to raise a kid."
Ru caught him a headlock and screamed at him, "No one is born with the skills of raising a child. Did you know how to be a father before becoming one? No, you did not! We only learn things when you’re faced with the need to use those skills."
"Sensei, can’t you ask for something else? I can give my life to you but my little Bao is the only son I have," was Xu Mey’s hesitant reply.
"Tsk. Tsk." Ru clicked her tongue and said, "Stupid disciple, why are you feeling guilty while saying no to me? I would have slapped your face if you had actually accepted my proposal." Xu Mey was surprised to hear her reply. "I like that little bunny of yours. As a godmother, won’t I get some time to spend with him?"
"That you can," Xu Mey agreed readily.
"You both husband and wife are one of a kind. Do I look like someone who will raise a kid?" Ru spoke in discontent while eyeing them both and they both shook their heads in sync. Why all weirdos were stuck in her life?
’One keeps company with the likes of his own. Since you’re a weirdo, how can normal ones enter your life?’ Oh, there she was. Her sleeping conscious was awakened again. But at the wrong time as always to annoy the hell out of her.
’Just keep sleeping!’ Ru retorted to her conscious.
