"Uh, okay, I admit Li Lianying is my master. Uncle, could you tell me about my master? I'm really curious, but he won't divulge even the slightest detail," I tried to coax some information out of him, based on what he had just said about my master's emotional entanglements. Hehe, might as well give it a shot. Friend or foe, as long as I don't reveal my master's whereabouts, it should be fine, right?
"Just like your master, always scheming. Like teacher, like disciple indeed. Speaking of which, your master back then..." He stopped speaking halfway, looking at me with great interest to see my reaction.
"Oh come on, uncle, do tell! What happened with my master back then?" I grew anxious when he paused mid-sentence and hastily urged him to continue. The mystery that had puzzled me for years seemed about to be unveiled. What kind of person was my master, really?
