Chapter 1527: Higher than You

Xue Fanxin thought that Shui Dongliu was so shocked because of her sudden appearance, or perhaps for some other reason. The only reason she had not guessed was that. Seeing that Shui Dongliu was really staring at her, she felt a little embarrassed.
Shui Moning also noticed that her father was strange, so she reminded him, “Father, what are you doing? She is Fanxin, whom I mentioned to you. She is a good friend I made in the Five Elements Academy. She is a very, very good friend. Furthermore, her status is very extraordinary…”
Just as Shui Moning was thinking about whether to reveal Xue Fanxin’s identity, she heard Shui Dongliu ask, “Your name is Xue Fanxin. May I know your relationship with Shui Qianrou?”
Shui Qianrou… Shui Moning recalled this name. Back in the Five Elements Academy, Xue Fanxin had asked her if she knew a person called Shui Qianrou as soon as she met her.
Could it be that her father knew Shui Qianrou?
“She’s my great-grandma,” Xue Fanxin said with a smile, not hiding anything.
Upon learning of Xue Fanxin and Shui Qianrou’s relationship, Shui Dongliu also smiled. “I didn’t expect you to be my sister’s great-granddaughter.”
Cultivators were usually very old. Some married and had children when they were fifteen or sixteen years old, and some had never touched the relationship between a man and a woman when they were more than a hundred years old. This was because many large families had very chaotic seniority. Some people had already become grandfathers and uncles at a young age, and some were still the youngest grandchildren when they were more than a hundred years old.
Shui Dongliu and Shui Qianrou were in such a situation. Although the two of them were from the same family, there was a huge age difference. Back then, when Shui Qianrou was expelled from the Shui family, Shui Dongliu was not even born.
Xue Fanxin had long gotten Manqiu to investigate Shui Dongliu’s identity clearly, so she naturally knew who he was. Hence, she teased, “Then wouldn’t I have to call you great uncle?”
“Er… I think so,” Shui Dongliu said awkwardly.
“Father, you mean that Fanxin and I are related by blood?”
“If her great-grandma is indeed my sister, then you should be related by blood, but your seniority is a little chaotic. You’re similar in age, so you can be considered cousins.”
“Wow… Fanxin, Fanxin, so we’re cousins. No, no, my seniority is higher than yours. Haha…” Shui Moning was especially happy because she was related to Xue Fanxin by blood. How could she have the mood to think about anything messy now? She was already so happy that she could not find a place to hide.
Xue Fanxin had long known about this relationship, so she was not as excited as Shui Moning. Instead, she asked very calmly, “Great uncle, I want to ask how my great-grandma was expelled from the family back then.”
“I’m not too sure about this either, because I was not born at that time. It was only later that I accidentally found out some things from my parents’ conversation and saw her portrait. Therefore, when I first saw you, I was very shocked to see that you looked a little similar to Sister.” Shui Dongliu sighed with emotion in his heart.
Fate was so strange.
“Great uncle, then how much do you know about great-grandma?” Xue Fanxin continued to ask, looking like she had to find out the truth.
Shui Dongliu did not hide anything and told her what he knew. “I also heard about Sister from Father and Mother. Sister was a rare genius in the Shui family. From the moment she was born, she was valued by the family and doted on by thousands of people. But later, for some reason, it was said that Sister murdered the mistress of the Shui family at that time, her biological grandmother. Because of this, Sister was expelled from the Shui family..”
