"Jun Ning, I genuinely treated you as my benefactor, my sister, cared for you wholeheartedly, even wanted to learn martial arts to protect you if someday your father couldn't shield you anymore. I would use my life to protect you."
"But you? Calculating against me every step of the way?"
"How can you be so heartless?"
"Tell me, did you investigate me from the moment you adopted me, and start plotting against me?"
Lan Xihe began to cry as she spoke.
Tears streaming down her face, she questioned Jun Ning about the doubts that plagued her, but Jun Ning simply closed her eyes, saying nothing.
Some prejudices are deeply rooted, some misunderstandings are completely unreasonable. Even if she were to speak with her whole body, even with all her strength to explain, it might not change Lan Xihe's mind.
At this moment, any explanation seems pale and powerless.
Distrust is distrust, nothing said will change that.
