Capítulo 1612: Panicked Yuyan

Xiao Min rushed to the scene, his heart sinking at the sight before him. What they had been avoiding for the past decade had finally come to light. He wondered how Lu Lijun would take it.

Lu Lijun continued to cry, his sobs echoing around him, a grown man crying like a child.

"Lijun," Yuyan called his name softly, "let's go home."

He finally raised his gaze to look at her, his eyes filled with tears. "Yuyan…I am one of them…"

Her heart ached to see him in such pain. "No, you are not."

"I am the reason why they could kill my brother. I…I am the reason…"

"No. You were just a child. They tricked you into doing it."

He shook his head, refusing her consolation. "You should punish me as well, just like you punished others."

"Lijun…"

"I deserve to be punished for being among those who killed your husband, Yuyan." His red eyes pleaded with her, begging for punishment to rid him of his guilt.
