She tried her best, that's what she thought.
But that was before she heard why Jiang Jinxu was injured.
"Even though you failed to stop him, and even got yourself involved ——" Lu Jingzhi was contemplating how to say what came next.
Jiang Jinxu didn't want to hear it.
His niece was too blunt.
"BUT! You meant well. I think I have to thank you." Lu Jingzhi searched for the right words, trying to find a reason, "If it wasn't for you being careless and stepping into a trap that day, bleeding so much, I wouldn't have smelled the blood, wouldn't have stopped to look for my brother... so I have to thank you!"
Jiang Jinxu: "…No, it's okay."
He felt too embarrassed to face her.
He watched as the blurry-faced young girl made a wish, holding her hands together as if in prayer, and then a shadow flew towards him like lightning.
In an instant, he lost consciousness.
Lu Jingzhi hid the rest of the pebbles in her sleeve and lightly jumped out the window.
