Years had passed, and the once bright and elegant young man had become much more composed. Liu Kun was both surprised and delighted, yet Lu Qian's smile seemed forced.
Lu Qian had come because of Lu Rou's funeral.
Lu Rou was dead.
Liu Kun had known the news long ago and felt deep regret. When Lu Rou first arrived in Shengjing after getting married, she had visited the Liu Family. But her husband's household was wealthy and had strict rules, especially her mother-in-law, who was particularly harsh; thus, Liu Kun felt it improper to shamelessly visit time and again, and their contact gradually ceased.
Liu Kun believed Lu Qian had come for the mourning, but Lu Qian told him that there was more to Lu Rou's death.
Lu Rou had been murdered.
The secret Lu Qian revealed was shocking, leaving Liu Kun feeling as though his soul was scattered. The young man, as resolute as he had been in his youth, clenched his teeth and swore to seek justice for his unjustly deceased sister.
