Shi Guang was shocked as her eyes widened, her expression filled with disbelief. “Shi Ze’s father died because of Lu Yanchen? You’re saying that Lu Yanchen killed Shi Ze’s father?”
“Shi 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 circumstances, but I heard that Shi Ze’s father had killed someone, and Lu Yanchen happened to have caught sight of it. The Shis 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 Shi Ze’s father ended in jail, where he died in an accident just a mere three days later. Shi Ze placed all the blame on Lu Yanchen.”
Shi Guang looked at Qian Xun speechlessly. “How could he blame Lu Yanchen? What kind of logic does that Shi Ze have?” She then continued asking with a dark face, “Then why did Lu Yanchen nearly die because of Shi 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 circumstances. But from what I heard, Yang Sitong got engaged with Lu Yanchen after saving him from it.”
Shi 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 Shi 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, Shi Ze would probably not speak to her in such a nice tone, much less drop her off earlier on.
Shi Guang’s heart skipped a beat.
To think that she boarded his car today.
What a close shave!
Shi 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!
Shi Guang then thought about what Qian Xun had said to her about snatching her man. In reality, it was because the latter did not want her to get too close to Shi Ze, and wanted to snip that relationship in the bud right away.
She was trying to protect Shi Guang.
Instantly, Shi 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?”
“Shi Ze is your fiancé. In theory, you should be helping him.” Shi 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 Shi Guang.
Once again, Shi 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 ,’ Shi 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.”
