"Second Brother, he's not dead, that corpse isn't him." Wei Ruo declared confidently.
"No... Not the second young master?" Xiumei widened her eyes, her jaw dropping into a stunned silence.
"Firstly, I have seen my second brother's body. The physique of that corpse is similar to his, but I'm certain it is not him due to many discrepancies in detail. Secondly, during his recent visits, he mentioned to me more than once that if I were to hear about his death, I should not believe it, claiming it to be a misunderstanding." Wei Ruo analyzed.
"Well... The second young master did say that, but could he really have been referring to this incident?"
If that were really the case, it would indeed be the best outcome. Xiumei was just afraid of raising false hopes, believing that the young lady might have to go through another episode of heartache.
