"I've always been well aware," Lu Yi was surprised that he was still speaking up for Yuexue even at a time like this. He just felt a pang of pity—it was indeed true that he had taken care of Yuexue for quite some time and had grown fond of her.
Chen Wenzhou burst out laughing upon hearing Lu Yi's words, as if he had heard a joke. He laughed with his shoulders shaking for a long time before he finally calmed down.
"I didn't expect you to be so humorous. Wasn't my warning clear enough just now? Yuexue is the daughter of Pei Yansi and Shen Heyu; as long as she exists, as long as she grows up safely, Pei Yansi will have an excuse to keep in touch with Shen Heyu."
"In other words, Yuexue is the bond between Pei Yansi and Shen Heyu. If that bond is broken, especially if Yuexue dies because of Pei Yansi, then Shen Heyu would hate Pei Yansi for life. At that point, the two of them would truly never cross paths again."
