Gu Dai knew Su Ci had no reason to lie to her, and indeed, he wasn't one to lies. Yet, the revelation that Father Su was her grandmother's son was something she found hard to believe.
Moreover, she couldn't understand why Father Su would imprison her parents or harbor such hatred towards the Gu family.
Taking a deep breath, she looked at Su Ci and asked, "You and your father..."
Su Ci lowered his gaze and spoke softly, "Three years ago, when I fell into the sea, it was he who saved me. However, there's no affection between us. To put it accurately, I'm merely a pawn in his hands, a tool meant to be used against you."
After saying this, he quickly looked up at Gu Dai, assuring her again, "Although he instructed me to do so, I have always refused and never harmed you."
Gu Dai nodded slightly, "I know. And if you had hurt me, I would have definitely sensed it."
Thinking of the tone Father Su used when speaking to him, she sighed lightly.
