Qiao Nian had never expected her brother, who she had always thought was gentle, to have such a cold and ruthless side.
Besides, her brother was right. Song Yue should have died in Ghost City long ago.
"If she comes to her senses and finds out who you are, she’ll spread the word and put you in danger."
At this point, Lu Zhu hid the coldness in his eyes and his voice became warm. "Sugar, I once told you that I wouldn’t put you in danger again."
When Qiao Nian heard Lu Zhu’s words, her eyes couldn’t help but turn red. It felt so good to be protected. "Brother, you’re so good to me. In the future, I might not be able to control myself. I might become arrogant after being doted on."
Lu Zhu reached out and gently tapped Qiao Nian’s nose. He smiled dotingly and said softly, "My sister has the right."
Qiao Nian smiled in embarrassment. She helped Lu Zhu to the bed and asked curiously, "Brother, Song Yue just brought out a lot of evidence. Why didn’t you suspect me?"
Seeing the bright smile on Qiao Nian’s face, Lu Zhu couldn’t help but swallow. He said softly, "Silly girl, why should I suspect you? It’s all my fault. I lost you by accident. I didn’t protect you well enough and didn’t find you sooner."
Qiao Nian looked at Lu Zhu in confusion.
"Did you realize that the two of us were related when you were in the operating theater?" Lu Zhu asked.
Qiao Nian was slightly taken aback, but she quickly reacted and nodded. "Okay."
"That’s why you gave them hush money to keep it quiet. If you hadn’t done that, news of our relationship might have spread back long ago. At that time, you would have become a target." Lu Zhu paused and continued, "If I had woken up then, I would have made the same decision."
