The angry words made Qin Huizhu's action of pressing the dial button suddenly freeze, as if she had been stabbed in the vitals.

"You...what nonsense are you talking about..."

Qin Huizhu's voice trembled, "I admit that I have lacked care for Qin Yi...over the years, but I have never hit him! What do you mean by scars all over his body? No one in our family abused him!"

"You said you didn't abuse him?!"

Gu Rumeng's anger was pushed to the limit of her endurance by Qin Huizhu's shamelessness:

"Do you have to reveal Qin Yi's scars to know your fault?"

"Let's not talk about those scars, isn't it abuse that Qin Yi is so thin?"

"I really want to know what kind of family can drive a luxury car but raise their own children to be skinny!"

"Is it true that in your eyes, as long as the person is still alive, it is not considered abuse?"

"A shameless person like you is worthy of being a sister?"

One question after another, like a heavy hammer hitting Qin Huizhu's heart again and again, hitting her so hard that she couldn't refute it at all, even a word.

"Speak!"

Gu Rumeng stared, wishing she could slap the shameless woman in front of her again.

"I... I..."

Qin Huizhu's face turned pale.

She finally realized why Qin Yi hated her so much and why he was unwilling to return to the Qin family.

In an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.

Her indifference to Qin Yi over the years is undoubtedly the driving force behind today's situation!

She is now extremely regretful, and the strong sense of guilt almost swallowed her mind!

"Let's go, Sister Rumeng."

Qin Yi was a little tired and didn't want to continue to entangle with Qin Huizhu, the lingering woman.

"No... Qin Yi... You can't leave... Please... Give me a chance to atone! I really know I was wrong!"

Qin Huizhu grabbed Qin Yi's sleeve, and the water droplets on her face couldn't be distinguished from tears or rain.

"Let go!"

Qin Yi was angry and wanted to break free, but Qin Huizhu was like a demon and held on to his sleeve tightly and refused to let go.

Until a "sizzle" sounded in the air.

The loose cuffs could not withstand the tug-of-war-like pulling, and a crack was torn, which spread to the shoulder.

The scarred arm was suddenly exposed to the rain.

Qin Huizhu was stunned.

She couldn't believe what she saw.

"Are you satisfied now?!"

Gu Rumeng pushed Qin Huizhu away angrily and quickly blocked Qin Yi's arm with her body. She didn't want Qin Yi's tragic past to be exposed in front of this shameless woman.

"How could it be... How could it be..."

Qin Huizhu was pushed to the ground and looked at Qin Yi in a daze: "How did those scars come from? Xiaoyi, tell me... Who caused those scars?"

"Does it matter who did it?"

Qin Yi's eyes were indifferent, "Three years, it took you three years to find these things, don't you think it's ridiculous?"

"..."

Qin Huizhu was speechless, her mind was in a mess.

Three years to find out...

Could it be that these scars were caused by Xiaoyi wandering outside for more than ten years?

But why did she and other people in the family never know?

Suddenly, she remembered that in the past three years, every summer, Qin Yi would wear long sleeves no matter how hot the weather was, even if he was sweating all over.

When she first found this, she scolded him a few times, and then stayed away from him, for fear of being contaminated by the sweat on Qin Yi's body.

But she never thought about the reason, just thinking that Qin Yi had a problem in his head.

Thinking back to these things at this moment, Qin Huizhu suddenly felt how shameless she was!

As a biological sister, she had never noticed the pain Qin Yi had suffered in the past ten years!

Such a self... How dare she call herself a sister at this moment!

How dare she bring her brother, who had suffered for more than ten years, back to the family that did not regard him as a relative at all!

"Ah..."

Qin Huizhu felt that her chest was slapped by the tsunami-like guilt over and over again, unable to speak or breathe.

"Don't follow me shamelessly anymore!"

Gu Rumeng pulled Qin Yi and turned around, "If you really feel sorry in your heart as you said, then don't show up in front of Qin Yi in the future!"

After that, she left with Qin Yi without looking back.

Qin Huizhu did not chase him again. She sat in the rain, looking at him in despair.

Looking at Qin Yi's back, she muttered to herself,

"I'm sorry... Xiaoyi... Sister is really sorry for you..."

...

...

Back home.

Gu Rumeng put away her umbrella and urged anxiously: "Xiaoyi, go take a shower quickly, half of your body is wet, otherwise you will catch a cold."

"I'm sorry, Sister Rumeng..."

Qin Yi lowered his head and did not move for a long time, his words were full of fatigue and self-blame.

"Why do you say sorry?"

Gu Rumeng sighed softly, "Don't say sorry for this kind of thing, you are not wrong, and sister doesn't think you are wrong."

Qin Yi did not say anything, still standing at the door with his head down.

He felt that he could not stay here any longer.

Qin Huizhu came to the door today, who knows if there will be other Qin family members tomorrow?

If he continued to stay here, it would only add troubles to Gu Rumeng that she should not bear.

"Don't let your imagination run wild!"

Gu Rumeng seemed to see what Qin Yi was thinking, and immediately frowned, saying in a very serious voice, "Since I brought you back, I will definitely be responsible for you to the end! You don't have to worry about other things. No matter who comes to trouble you, I will help you!"

"But..."

"No buts! Listen to me, have you forgotten your agreement with me?"

"I..."

Qin Yi opened his mouth, his nose was sour.

Before meeting Gu Rumeng, he had never experienced this feeling of being firmly chosen by someone.

"Sister Rumeng... why are you so good to me?"

This matter actually troubled Qin Yi for a long time.

Obviously, Gu Rumeng and he had no blood relationship.

Obviously, they just met by chance on a rainy night.

But Gu Rumeng took him home and took care of him like a family member without asking for anything in return, which often made Qin Yi feel very unreal.

"Because you and my sister are very similar, when I met you on that rainy night, my sister seemed to see her childhood self."

Gu Rumeng's eyes were deep, as if she was recalling some sad past events.

Qin Yi's attention was attracted by this look, and he couldn't help but be curious about Gu Rumeng's past.

"Do you want to hear my sister's story?"
