You two really have no one else to blame.

Lin Wu's usually fast-spinning brain seemed to short-circuit at the moment, unable to grasp the meaning behind Guan Chen's words.

She asked in astonishment, "You're saying that was Lu Guichi??"

Guan Chen let his head hang slightly, nodding.

"Then at that time..."

"I found out only recently."

Guan Chen interrupted Lin Wu's words, his tone calm.

After a pause, he continued, "That morning, three years ago... he ran away on his own. I searched for a long time but couldn't find him, only to discover that he seemed to have business dealings with that duxiao."

Lin Wu's brain glitched for a few seconds.

In the end, she picked a topic, "You mean... he was doing business with that duxiao?"

Guan Chen nodded.

Lin Wu fell silent for a moment, organizing the overwhelming amount of information in her brain.
