Chapitre 101: His Heart Had Darkened

Qi Chao couldn't believe what he had just overheard.

Chi Yu was merely a substitute, brought in to die in Ning Jin's place, and her real parents were someone else entirely.

What did those words even mean?

He hadn't intended to eavesdrop.

A nurse had suddenly come over with a tray of medication, saying she needed to disinfect Chi Yu's wounds.

Recalling the expression on Chi Yu's face when she asked him to call Chi He into the room—it hadn't seemed particularly serious—Qi Chao had thought they probably weren't discussing anything too important.

He asked the nurse to wait a moment, and just as he pushed open the door, he heard Chi Yu utter those shocking words.

The sheer weight of the information left Qi Chao standing there in stunned silence.

Chi He, too ashamed to face Chi Yu, hastily muttered, "I'll contact your parents right away."

Without waiting for a response from Chi Yu, he fled the room in embarrassment.
