The Truth

With each counter-question, Lu Yinan's expression grew increasingly grim.

He realized that every single one of Lu Miao's counter-questions was true.

Lu Miao had experienced numerous events after returning home, events of which Lu Yinan had no knowledge.

He had simply chosen to believe Lu Siyu's words and dismissed Lu Miao's claims as misunderstandings.

He had thought that by seeking out Lu Miao, he could clarify any misconceptions she had about the Lu family and Lu Siyu. But from Lu Miao's perspective, wasn't this merely a form of lecturing and reproach?

Taking a moment for self-reflection, Lu Yinan admitted that even if Lu Miao had truly died back then, he would likely have felt little remorse for this sister he had never even met, let alone seeking justice on her behalf.

But Lu Miao was his biological sister, someone he should have made amends with and protected.
