The Master’s Mask Unveiled Again
Chapter 526 - Chapter 526 Chapter 525 Xi Xi, Don't Leave Anymore

Chapter 526: Chapter 525: Xi Xi, Don’t Leave Anymore Chapter 526: Chapter 525: Xi Xi, Don’t Leave Anymore Ya Ling also heard about the tragedy that belonged to Shen Yixin two years ago, as revealed by Pu Huaiyin.

She had inquired about it,, and had only heard that Shen Yixin was injured in a horse-riding accident.

She never knew that Shen Yixin’s left hand was injured because of Ye Jinwen.

And at that time, the reason why Ye Jinwen was in a hurry to leave, Ya Ling knew very well, it must have been because he received her distress text message.

With an expressionless face, Ya Ling silently performed emergency first aid on Chu Kong.

Chu Kong was different from others; he suffered from a terminal illness.

If the first aid wasn’t timely, the consequences were unthinkable.

After stimulating Chu Kong’s acupuncture point, she took out a pill from her emergency kit and stuffed it into his mouth.

“Miss, what did you give Mr.

Chu Kong?”

“Life-saving medicine,” Ya Ling didn’t explain much.

Watching as Chu Kong gradually regained consciousness, she slowly withdrew the silver needle and put it back into the emergency kit.

With a flick of her wrist, she hid it in a place where Mei Qin couldn’t see, as if by sleight of hand.

Mei Qin didn’t dwell on these details and, seeing Chu Kong open his eyes, hurried over.

“Sir!”

“What happened to me…” Chu Kong coughed violently.

“You fainted just now!” Mei Qin had a cold sweat on her back and was continuously frightened, “Sir, the doctor has especially warned that you must not get too emotional, as it can easily cause breathing difficulties…”

For someone with ALS, difficulty breathing is a very bad occurrence.

Standing aside, Ya Ling said indifferently, “Master Chu, don’t force yourself.

Shen Yixin wouldn’t be happy seeing you like this.”

“Yixin…” Chu Kong clutched his chest and closed his eyes deeply.

The dressing room fell silent for a moment.

“Master Chu, I initially just wanted to get your autograph.

Take care, I’ll be leaving now.”

She had arrived in a rush, and left in a rush, too.

It was then that Mei Qin realized what had happened and called out to Ya Ling’s retreating figure, “Miss, thank you for stepping in to help!

Thank you!”

“You’re welcome!”

She waved her hand, casually opened the dressing room door, and unexpectedly, outside stood a girl with eyes brimming with tears.

Ya Ling took a sudden step back.

The next second, she frantically searched for her scarf to cover her face.

Unfortunately, her actions seemed futile in the eyes of Shen Yixin.

Shen Yixin’s teary eyes gazed at the girl in front of her with such depth and intensity, unwilling to blink even once.

When had she arrived here?

Probably from the time Mei Qin loudly called for Master, she had hurried over.

Without pushing the door open, she heard a familiar yet distant voice inside.

“If you don’t want him to die, then shut up.”

Who is she?

She studied music.

A music student’s hearing is many times more sensitive than an ordinary person’s.

How could she possibly forget Xi Xi’s voice?

She would never forget it in her lifetime!

Without blinking, Shen Yixin stood rigid at the door, staring at Ya Ling, fearing that if she blinked, the other person would disappear.

With just one glance, just one look, she confirmed that the person before her was Ye Lingxi, the one she longed for day and night!

She hadn’t been mistaken that day, the silhouette from that day was Xi Xi!

She was still alive, she was still alive…

What a relief.

Even if she had to give up both her hands, seeing her alive and back was all she needed.

Xi Xi…

Xi Xi…

Ya Ling bit her red lips and looked away.

Chu Kong and Mei Qin were somewhat puzzled as they watched the two women.

It wasn’t until half a minute had ticked away, second by second, that Shen Yixin’s tears, large and heavy, began to fall to the ground, striking it with soft thuds.

She couldn’t speak a word, only took two steps forward and hugged Ya Ling directly.

Her arms tightly encircled Ya Ling, gripping her with all her might, as if afraid she would run away.

Shen Yixin was the quintessential delicate daughter of a wealthy family, her way of crying silent and reserved, with no sound, just a trembling body.

A torrent of emotions churned at the back of her throat and in her heart.

All her feelings were translated into the strength in her fingertips as she clung to Ya Ling, refusing to let go.

Ya Ling’s emotions were complex as well; she hadn’t wanted to see Shen Yixin.

She had come to the dressing room only to get Mr.

Chu Kong’s autograph, but encountered this unexpected situation instead.

The moment was not as she had intended.

She lifted her hand and gently patted Shen Yixin’s back.

She patted for a long time.

“Xinxin, stop crying,” she said.

The usually mischievous Ya Ling unexpectedly soothed her with tenderness.

Hearing the familiar name, Shen Yixin’s shoulders quivered, her right hand tightly clutching Ya Ling’s clothing, not knowing how to release her pent-up emotions.

Crying and tears had become the best form of expression for her.

While shaking her head, she continued to hold onto Ya Ling.

After a while, Shen Yixin slowly let go of Ya Ling and said her first careful words, “Xi Xi, don’t go away again.”

No matter what had happened in the past, no matter what was happening now, she just wanted to keep her close.

Ya Ling sighed, patted Shen Yixin’s shoulder, and changed the subject, “Let’s not talk about that right now.

Isn’t there a music concert for your master today?

You should persuade him.

He really shouldn’t perform today.”

Shen Yixin knew she was shifting the topic.

A layer of melancholy clouded her eyes, and she tugged again at Ya Ling’s clothing.

Seeing that Ya Ling had no intention of directly addressing her words, she understood.

Shen Yixin mustered up a gentle and generous smile.

Ya Ling took out a tissue from her coat and offered it to her.

Shen Yixin took it, cherishing the tissue in her hand, unwilling to use it, so Ya Ling simply gave her the whole packet.

Only then did Shen Yixin gently wipe away the tears on her face and carefully tucked the packet of tissues into her pocket.

Because she had once lost so much, she now treasured every little thing even more.

Putting her emotions aside, Shen Yixin walked to Chu Kong’s side and offered a shy smile.

“I’ve made a fool of myself in front of Master,” she said.

“No harm done.

Just now it was this young lady who saved me,” Chu Kong replied.

“Her medical skills are superb,” Shen Yixin said, her eyes shining with admiration as she spoke of Ya Ling.

In the revived light of her pupil that had been dormant for two years, Chu Kong saw a heartening sight.

Although he didn’t understand the reason behind it, he was comforted that someone was there to soothe his disciple’s heartache.

Ya Ling stood to the side, cleared her throat and fiddled with her wavy hair, “I haven’t practiced medicine in a long time.”

Shen Yixin glanced at her, lips pursed in a slight smile, but said nothing.

Ya Ling guiltily turned her head away.

“Master, for today’s concert, please listen to Xi Xi and don’t go on stage.

When you’re a bit healthier, we can perform together,” Shen Yixin said.

“Where will there be another chance…”

Shen Yixin couldn’t bear to see him gamble everything on one last shot, “There will be one!”

“Maybe, you really shouldn’t have taken me as your master…

I have a bad temper, I’ve offended many people.

Who knows how they curse me.

You are now in this predicament because of me,” Chu Kong lamented.

“Master, this has nothing to do with you,” Shen Yixin said with an exasperated smile.

Ya Ling’s gaze silently fell on Shen Yixin’s left hand covered in a lace white glove, and her eyes darkened slightly.

“Master, just listen to me this one time.

If necessary, I can perform in your stead.

These past two years, I’ve been continuously practicing playing the piano with one hand,” Shen Yixin said with a poignant tone.

This admission stirred deep emotions in Chu Kong, leaving his heart unsettled once again.

While they were discussing this issue, Shao Yunxuan, who had been getting ready in the dressing room, finally graced them with her tardy arrival.
