"A person, when surrounded by honor for too long, easily loses their true self. I never imagined that after teaching thousands of students over half my life, I would fail so miserably in educating my own descendants!" Tears glistened in his eyes as he looked at Rong Yan. "Rong, this old face of mine is not worthy of your forgiveness. What happened with Siyuan was my mistake; our whole family went too far. But Shen Yu, he harbors no ill will, and he's never harmed you. I hope you don't hold Siyuan's mistakes against Shen Yu. He is just like you, trying to protect his family! Even if his family makes mistakes, she is his sister, and he can't just abandon her!"
He was betting that Rong Yan held a special place in Chu Aotian and Jiang Chenyue's hearts, betting that Rong Yan was not a petty person. "Rong, please, as a favor to me, won't you?"
