"Xia Ming, I -"
"No! You listen to me, Rong Yixuan. Do you think killing my monster uncle would make everything alright? No! It won't…." Xia Ming sneered. "Otherwise, why would I be sitting here and not rebelling against him? If you love Xiaoruo, then I love her more than you. She is my sister and I have brought her since she was a baby. Do you think I want to let her suffer from all of that? No! But I can't do anything. I am helpless!"
"Or do you think that Xiaoruo is a damsel in distress waiting on you to save her? No! She is not. She can take her own revenge and can kill her own father. But, she is not doing that. Why? She is suffering from every torture that her father inflicting on her. Why? She is obeying my monster uncle's every command. Why?"
"Because of Jing Mingzhi. Our hands are tied down because of that one person. Unless and until you can find Jing Mingzhi, there is no future between you and Xiaoruo, whatsoever," Xia Ming ranted.
