In the end, Doctor Fu nodded his head. In his opinion, it wasn't a violation of his conscience to agree with Bai's proposal. Therefore, a compromise was made.
Bai Ruozhu held Xiaosi's hand, expressing her gratitude to Doctor Fu once more before bidding him farewell and leaving the Fu family's residence.
While on their way home, Bai Ruozhu held Xiaosi's hand, asking him softly, "Do you still feel upset?"
Xiaosi shook his head, "They're not my real family after all."
"Did you know this from the start?" Bai Ruozhu was surprised by Xiaosi's calm demeanor. He seemed unaffected by the discovery that he was an adopted child, having only asked her once before, "If I wasn't your real brother, would you still be kind to me?"
Remaining expressionless, Xiaosi answered, "I sensed it. I used to think that they weren't my biological parents."
