"Zhizhi..." Finally, Gong Juechen spoke, but he did so while crying, his voice choked with sobs, making Ye Zhi feel exceptionally uncomfortable.
This was the first time she had seen Gong Juechen like this.
"My father..." Gong Juechen's voice was choked with tears, "My father is dead..."
Ye Zhi said curiously, "But you don't have a father, do you? No, wait, weren't you adopted by your master on the mountain? Do you now know who your father is?"
Regarding Gong Juechen's background, An Jing hadn't told Ye Zhi, so it was no wonder Ye Zhi didn't know.
Gong Juechen didn't answer Ye Zhi's question, merely kept crying and repeated, "My father is dead..."
Ye Zhi felt a bit perturbed listening to him. Watching Gong Juechen acting like a crybaby made her feel even more unsettled.
However, Gong Juechen didn't seem to be faking this—his father must have really died.
But... who exactly is his father?
