Chapter 19 Big Brother Arrives

Chapter 19 Big Brother Arrives

Autumn arrived in the blink of an eye, and the weather grew rather cool. Liu Ruxuan earned a considerable amount of money by treating wealthy young men. Although she was only a second-grade pharmacist, her concoctions, made with meticulous care, luxurious ingredients, and solid skills, were comparable in efficacy to those of a third-grade medicine king. As she treated more and more people and showed her love for helping the weak and poor, the people affectionately called her—the Goddess.

People only knew that whenever the goddess came out to treat patients, she always covered her face, wore plain clothes, and a bamboo hat with a veil around the edge to conceal her features. She left behind only one name in the world—Ru Xue (如雪). From then on, the name "Goddess Ru Xue" spread far and wide.

That day, Liu Ruxuan was reclining in a rocking chair under the locust tree, gazing at the azure sky, lost in thought. A figure dressed in dark blue entered through the door. No one announced their arrival, and Liu Ruxuan, engrossed in her thoughts, didn't notice.

"What are you thinking about, little sister?" A gentle voice sounded in Liu Ruxuan's ear. Liu Ruxuan was startled and instinctively stood up, throwing a punch in the direction of the voice. Unexpectedly, her small hand was gently grasped by a warm, large hand. Liu Ruxuan hadn't even seriously considered what had just been said; with a slight misstep, she pulled her hand away, and the two began to wrestle. However, her opponent was much stronger than her, and Liu Ruxuan was quickly subdued.

"Who are you?!" Liu Ruxuan growled angrily.

"I've been in seclusion for over a year, how come my sister doesn't recognize me?" Liu Wenhao smiled helplessly, "I'm so heartbroken!" He then released Liu Ruxuan.

Brother? Liu Ruxuan suddenly remembered that the original owner of this body did have an older brother, and he was quite good to her. But she had never met him, so how did she know this was him? This was awkward… But since she had been here for more than a day or two, she reacted quickly. Liu Ruxuan immediately put on a big smile and went forward to hug Liu Wenhao's arm: "Big brother~ I was just spacing out~ I didn't realize it was you, don't blame me~~~"

Liu Wenhao tilted his head to look at Liu Ruxuan, shook his head helplessly, and flicked her nose with his hand: "Little girl, I can't do anything with you!"

The two sat on a stone bench under a locust tree, and Liu Ruxuan poured Liu Wenhao a cup of tea.

"Big Brother"

"Xuan'er"

The two spoke at the same time, looked up and stared at each other, then both froze. Ahhh~ What an awkward atmosphere... Liu Ruxuan lowered her head in embarrassment, and Liu Wenhao also looked away unnaturally.

"You speak first!"

"You speak first!"

……

"I'll go first—"

"I'll go first—"

……

Although the original owner and Liu Wenhao were born to the same mother, the "inner core" has long been replaced. The fact that they can still be so synchronized is probably something that only happened with Liu Ruxuan.

The two remained silent for a while before Liu Wenhao spoke first: "Xuan'er, when did you... learn martial arts?" Liu Ruxuan clearly had no spiritual power, yet her moves were extraordinary. Liu Wenhao couldn't figure it out no matter how much he thought about it.

"Hmm—" When Liu Ruxuan heard Liu Wenhao's question, she thought to herself, "Oh no, how am I going to explain this to my older brother?" Just as Liu Wenhao was about to speak again, Liu Ruxuan spoke up, looking aggrieved: "When my older brother is not around, some people often bully others by taking advantage of their power, so I asked Xiyue to teach me a few moves to defend myself."

Liu Wenhao was not only unsuspecting, but also furious. He clenched his fists tightly and slammed his fist on the table: "Damn it, it must be those two again! They're so ungrateful! I'll teach them a lesson!" He looked at Liu Ruxuan and his voice softened: "Little sister, are you alright?"

"It's alright, I'm perfectly fine." Liu Ruxuan smiled gently, and Liu Wenhao was only relieved after looking her up and down for a while.
