eating his meal, but his attention was constantly on Qiao Yun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jingzhi clenched his hands nervously, as if waiting for a life-or-death verdict.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Yun’s dark eyes stared straight at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long while, she spoke slowly, “I don’t know if I should accept your apology.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t the original person, and she didn’t know the thoughts and feelings of the original person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The original person had died, killed by Qin Huan and Gu Ming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Yun’s words sounded to Lu Jingzhi like she was unwilling to forgive him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jingzhi’s throat dried, unable to ask Qiao Yun for forgiveness anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought he was fair and just, and believed that his arrangements for Qiaoqiao were for her own good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the truth was, he didn’t understand Qiao Yun at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only now had he realized how foolish his former self had been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If time could be rewound, he would definitely trust Qiao Yun completely and unconditionally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Yun went upstairs after finishing her meal, without asking them anything, since she had already told them everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, it was up to them to act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lu Jingzhi watched Qiao Yun’s retreating figure heading upstairs, he hesitated for a long while before calling out to Lu Zhanxing, “Zhanxing, have a good talk with your sister.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhanxing looked at him for a while and said gravely, “Brother, you are sentimental, and I understand that, but the fact that you trusted Lu Ting over your own sister because of a debt of gratitude can’t be undone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your blind trust in Lu Ting caused your sister a lot of grievances.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I understand,” Lu Jingzhi had never thought of evading this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I will not plead with your sister on your behalf,” Lu Zhanxing thought his brother needed to learn a lesson, to really feel what it was like to be misunderstood and disliked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jingzhi’s mood plummeted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ting had dinner outside with Ya Man after school and thus came home much later, unaware of what had transpired at home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering, she found the atmosphere at home somewhat peculiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was that kind of suffocating oppression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt puzzled and then saw Lu Jingzhi sitting on the sofa, his handsome face clouded over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother, what’s wrong?” Lu Ting asked gently, concern in her voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were before, Lu Jingzhi would have thought this sister to be caring, but now her face only felt foreign to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tingting, I want to ask you something.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did your real dad ever tell you about my car accident back in the day?” Lu Jingzhi stared at her with a scrutinizing gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ting started sweating profusely, and her mouth felt glued shut as she mumbled unclearly, “No, he never mentioned, I don’t remember.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that so.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jingzhi wanted to believe she didn’t know anything about it, at least that would prove he hadn’t raised an ingrate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I met someone who told me to investigate the car accident properly, and maybe it’s about time I did.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ting suppressed the panic rising in her heart and managed a weak smile, “Maybe that person has some hidden agenda.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ll know once we investigate,” Lu Jingzhi’s gaze didn’t leave Lu Ting’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ting swallowed hard, unable to speak against it as it would expose her guilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she didn’t want Lu Jingzhi to investigate the car accident because it was orchestrated by her real father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, except for Qiao Yun, everyone found it hard to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ting tossed and turned all night, afraid that the truth would be exposed, and eventually arranged to meet Ya Man at a café.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to find out who else knew about the car accident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ting left the house while her family was still asleep, saving her the need to lie to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was very early, and the café was virtually empty when Lu Ting walked in, followed soon by Ya Man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two were completely unaware that not far away, inside a car, sat two people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jingzhi watched the two walk in, his eyes dark and devoid of any warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhanxing sneered, “You still think she’s unaware?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jingzhi tried to make his guilt feel lighter, trying to convince himself that Lu Ting was unaware, which would at least prove he hadn’t misplaced his trust in her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, reality had harshly slapped him in the face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even thought of himself as rather ridiculous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ting wasn’t an ingrate; she simply had no heart!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jingzhi felt his stomach churn in disgust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing him like this, Lu Zhanxing didn’t knock him further down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After going home, Lu Jingzhi disclosed the incident to his parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mian sank onto the sofa, her face showing a bitter smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She bore no guilt towards Lu Ting, yet Lu Ting had kept such a significant secret from them. After fifteen years of meticulous care, what kind of person had they raised?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhanxing stated firmly, “Lu Ting cannot stay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jingzhi quickly looked up at him, remaining silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiaoqiao now faces a challenging choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>1. Torment the elder brother, then forgive him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>2. Torment him to death, torment him to death, torment him to death\u003C\u002Fp>",889,"2026-06-09T06:21:36.109Z",1,"novelbin.me","a9ff079d9789ed2debe88ef3c068d09a0824545303f1d1a2c6ef57dcfbad26bf","hidden-identities-of-the-ai-heiress-chapter-333","hidden-identities-of-the-ai-heiress-chapter-331",1090,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhidden-identities-of-the-ai-heiress-cover.jpg"]
