Lu Xingzhi did not get angry, because her father had already passed away and could never come back.

Any compensation they offered was useless.

Her father still could not return.

That night, Huo Jincheng heard Lu Xingzhi say, "It’s not that I’m not upset; it’s because I know my father actually didn’t have a strong will to live. He truly loved my mother and always wanted to be with her.

If it weren’t for my existence. If it weren’t for the fact that my grandparents were still around. Moreover, my father saving them was due to his kindness. As for what kind of people they were, my father didn’t care.

Neither do I care. Even if they have hurt me. My father was never one to hold grudges, so neither will I. The life lessons he taught me were not for harboring resentment.

What he wanted was always very simple, just my happiness. He had me learn piano, taught me many things, just so that I could live well after he was gone.

So, back then, when all my relatives left, even though I had no strong feelings for this world, I would still strive to live on. What they owe is to my father, not to me. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

They also owe their gratitude to my father, not me. Although they have hurt me, it wasn’t substantial harm, even Fu Yanzhi himself sliced his own face.

He equally knelt down and stabbed himself in the leg. They have repaid what they owe me; as for my father, they can repay it after their passing.

Besides, one of them has been searching for their savior, while the other simply misidentified their benefactor. I cannot just say they did wrong."

Huo Jincheng always knew that his young wife’s character was cold yet magnanimous.

Her adoptive father truly taught her well.

As Huo Jincheng thought of these things, he looked at Helian Yi, "While she was enduring pain, one of you fled, and the other mistook someone else as your savior and family, even hurting his daughter for her."

"What? I..." Helian Yi’s face showed no hint of a smile anymore; this year he had thought about the possibility of someone else being his savior.

But no matter how hard he imagined, he couldn’t fathom that the one who saved him was Lu Xingzhi’s father.

If that was the case, what was the purpose of all he did when Lu Xingzhi first came to the Capital City?

"What have I done?" Helian Yi couldn’t take it, slumping to the ground.

He didn’t doubt Huo Jincheng’s words, not in the slightest.

Huo Jincheng’s integrity meant he wouldn’t fabricate such things.

It could only be the truth.

Otherwise, he would have told him earlier.

"Third Brother, can I go apologize to Little Zhi?" Helian Yi asked, adding, "I don’t even have the face to see her."

"Jin Chen, how did you know all this? Not that I doubt you, I’m just a bit curious. Little Zhi herself probably doesn’t know, right! Did you guys ever mention it by chance?" Wen Ruya asked curiously.

"Fu Yanzhi found out first. Over these years, he’s also been searching for the savior, and finally learned that Zhi Zhi and her father were there too. Moreover, it was during that time her father passed away." Huo Jincheng’s tone was much gentler when talking to Wen Ruya.

"Zhi Zhi herself has never sought out those she saved, nor even mentioned them."
