s.h.i.+ Guang was shocked as her eyes widened, her expression filled with disbelief. “s.h.i.+ Ze’s father died because of Lu Yanchen? You’re saying that Lu Yanchen killed s.h.i.+ Ze’s father?”
“s.h.i.+ Ze’s father dying because of Lu Yanchen and Lu Yanchen killing him are two completely different meanings, alright?”
“Then what happened?”
“I don’t know about the exact circ.u.mstances, but I heard that s.h.i.+ Ze’s father had killed someone, and Lu Yanchen happened to have caught sight of it. The s.h.i.+s did not want Lu Yanchen to tell the truth, and even wanted him to make a false statement. Old Master Lu was someone who had been on the battlefield. Despite going through bloodshed, he bore a strong sense of righteousness. Lu Yanchen was raised personally by Old Master Lu and bore a strong resemblance to him. Eventually, he told the truth and s.h.i.+ Ze’s father ended in jail, where he died in an accident just a mere three days later. s.h.i.+ Ze placed all the blame on Lu Yanchen.”
s.h.i.+ Guang looked at Qian Xun speechlessly. “How could he blame Lu Yanchen? What kind of logic does that s.h.i.+ Ze have?” She then continued asking with a dark face, “Then why did Lu Yanchen nearly die because of s.h.i.+ Ze? Did he try to murder Lu Yanchen to get revenge for his father?”
Qian Xun nodded her head. “That’s right! As I’ve said, I don’t know about the exact circ.u.mstances. But from what I heard, Yang Sitong got engaged with Lu Yanchen after saving him from it.”
s.h.i.+ Guang understood everything now.
It was the incident of him falling into the waters.
She had been curious about how Lu Yanchen fell into the waters all this while. So, it was done by s.h.i.+ Ze who was filled with hatred toward the other, thinking that his father died because of him.
If he had known that she was Lu Yanchen’s wife, s.h.i.+ Ze would probably not speak to her in such a nice tone, much less drop her off earlier on.
s.h.i.+ Guang’s heart skipped a beat.
To think that she boarded his car today.
What a close shave!
s.h.i.+ Ze was someone who had thought of murdering others at such a young age. Who knew how much scarier and more scheming he would be now that he was older!
s.h.i.+ Guang then thought about what Qian Xun had said to her about s.n.a.t.c.hing her man. In reality, it was because the latter did not want her to get too close to s.h.i.+ Ze, and wanted to snip that relations.h.i.+p in the bud right away.
She was trying to protect s.h.i.+ Guang.
Instantly, s.h.i.+ Guang felt a terrible wave of emotions surging through her as she lamented. “Why are you telling me these things?”
Qian Xun rolled her eyes and reversed the question. “What do you think?”
“s.h.i.+ Ze is your fiancé. In theory, you should be helping him.” s.h.i.+ Guang replied meekly.
“He IS my fiancé, but my fiancé is nothing more than a working partner. You are my friend.” Qian Xun said as she kicked s.h.i.+ Guang.
Once again, s.h.i.+ Guang felt her heart going soft.
For the Nth time, she had wanted to cut off all ties with Qian Xun, especially after the previous incident when she had helped Su Ya. Yet, she was once again so touched that she wanted to hug her outright.
‘It was truly hard to find a true friend ,’ s.h.i.+ Guang sighed.
“I’m truly grateful to you, Qian Xun. And I know that you’re really nice to me too. However, there’s no way that I can get along with Su Ya. Believe it or not, even though I did strike at her that day, she was the one who made me… Hais, forget it! No one would believe me anyway. That’s because, even I wouldn’t believe myself if I said that someone would provoke me over such a small issue. Why else would she resort to such pitiful methods? It’s all because she doesn’t want me and you to be friends.”
