Gu Ningyue, standing aside, was also startled by that slap. The speed was so fast that even she didn't react, clearly showing a mix of grief and anger, unwilling to care about anything else.
Her heart ached as she glanced at Ling Tianyou, only to see Ling Tianyou's gaze darkening slightly, addressing the two elders before him: "Mom and Dad, Tianze's death is suspicious; someone wanted to harm him! I..."
The words following were thick with undetectable chokes, and Gu Ningyue felt her heart tightening.
He had never seen Ling Tianyou like this before, and never thought Ling Tianyou would have such a vulnerable moment. For a while, she was at a loss for how to respond.
"If you had called Tianze home to live sooner, things wouldn't have ended up like this today!" Ling Tianyou's mother looked at him, tears sliding uncontrollably: "Why can't you just believe your brother? That's your brother! He already said he would change! He would change!"
