As Mo Jin had said, this was simply way too cruel for her.
A long time ago, he had always felt that Yang Sitong did not give off the feeling in his memory of the person who had saved him. At times, he wondered if the person who saved him was even Yang Sitong.
However, there was no way to verify anything that had happened at a place like the Hucheng River. And it was a fact that she was the one who had sent him to the hospital.
When Yang Sitong confronted Shi Guang about whether or not she had saved someone at the Hucheng River 8 years ago, Lu Yanchen was overwhelmed with elation in that split instant.
So, the one that had saved him 8 years ago was truly not Yang Sitong, but her!
But, in the very next moment, his heart sank—he understood that there must be a motive why Yang Sitong would spill the beans then.
Suddenly, he recalled about the moment he went to Yang Sitong’s school back then.
They had just gotten engaged not too long ago, and his grandfather asked of him to wait for her after school, intending to have both of them build their feelings for one another.
He did not inform her of his visit that day. However, he accidentally bumped into her and Su Ya at the backyard of the school… along with a girl sprawling on the ground.
Su Ya left first, and before she did, she kicked the girl fiercely while scoffing out coldly.
At that time, he knew that he would not want to build any sort of feelings with this girl ever.
At that time, he did not know that the girl was Shi Guang’s sister—Mo Feifei.
At that time, he did not understand why even though Yang Sitong knew that she was caught in the act, she still decided to intensify on her bullying of Mo Feifei.
If she wanted to marry him, shouldn’t she at least try to make amends for that?
Back when he knew that Shi Guang’s sister was the girl that Yang Sitong had abused… Back when he knew that Shi Guang merely courted him because of revenge… At that time, Lu Yanchen wondered about what would have happened had he intervened in that affair.
Yang Sitong would have had to let Mo Feifei off.
Tragedy would not have befallen Shi Guang’s family.
It was only till this day that he understood why Yang Sitong had merely gotten worse instead of treating Mo Feifei better after bumping into him.
If he had interfered at that time, Yang Sitong would have probably gotten Mo Feifei killed outright!
After all, power was ever so seductive.
When Yang Sitong hollered out at Shi Guang, asking her if she knew who she had saved, Lu Yanchen felt his blood curdle from head to toe.
At that very moment, he panicked.
He hoped that the truth would never surface.
In the past, Shi Guang said that even though Yang Sitong did not kill her sister, her sister had to suffer because of Yang Sitong—he was afraid that the description fitted him better.
This was the very first time that his heart felt as though it had frozen over.
Even when he was back in the military, taking on those missions with a high probability of death and almost not managing to return alive, he did not have the same experience as earlier on when his entire world felt as though it was crumbling.
He wanted to prevent it from happening. But, given the way things had progressed, it was only a matter of time before she found out.
He did not know how she was going to blame herself after she woke up, but he knew that she would definitely not blame him.
However, now that so many things had happened and her sister was missing as well… If it were anyone else, they would not have been able to take it as though nothing had happened either…
A helper walked upstairs and said to Shen Lingshuang, “Missy, we’ve got guests. It’s Miss Yang’s mother and brother.”
Shen Lingshuang scoffed out coldly, “To think that they would have the cheek to come!”
