After calming down her emotions, Qiao Ran began to think about what had happened with the medicine at the banquet.
After much thought, other than her grandmother's few bowls of soup, Lu Mengyao had had no opportunity to drug her.
In the hotel, the soup had been with her grandmother all the time, indicating that the drug had been administered before they even reached the hotel.
Even if Han Mo had not appeared at the banquet, Lu Mengyao would have still schemed against her, and caused her to embarrass herself at the event.
Her grandfather would die with his eyes open, surely because he had discovered the truth and had been silenced by Lu Mengyao.
The real root of her grandfather's tragic death—was her.
Qiao Ran didn't struggle, letting Han Mo hold her as she sobbed with a mix of snot and tears, allowing herself to cry out her grief.
Han Mo didn't say a word, simply patting Qiao Ran's back gently with his warm hand, silently comforting her with his actions.
