In this world, you're one of the few people I can trust

  Of course, he knew this much, but it was not enough to let them dissolve their engagement.

  Everything is developing as he expected.

  "Ling, what are you planning? Do you think Mayor Quan will cancel your engagement just by doing this?"

  Fujiwara no Michinaga replied irrelevantly, his eyes gleaming like sharp swords.

  "No, I don't think they will lift it."

  Fūin Kazuki picked up the photo on the tea table, slightly curled up the corners of her mouth, and was about to turn around...

  "Freeze!"

  Feng Jianming shouted with a heavy heart, and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "Can't you tell your father anything? Is your father not worthy of your trust?"

  "Hmm..."

  Fūin Kazuki let out a soft laugh and turned to look at Fūin Akira, "In this world, the people I can believe in are myself and not you, Father."

  After finishing speaking, he took the photo and went upstairs.

  Feng Jianming stared blankly at the back of Feng Lian, his heart feeling increasingly heavy. He stood up and walked silently to the ancestral hall, gazing deeply at the smiling face in the photo with tears welling up in his eyes. He muttered, "Xia Yao, did I fail as a father? When did it start that the kids stopped calling me Dad? They don't tell me anything anymore... Maybe this is all my fault... Sigh... It's been ten years since you left, Xia Yao. Without you, even with all the wealth, I have no happiness to speak of... Really, I'm so tired..."

  At this time, Fūin Kazuki, who was still at the corner of the stairs, heard everything that Fūin Akira had said.

  He clenched his fists tightly, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, slowly opened them again, and continued upstairs, as if forcing himself to leave the spot...

  Back in her room, Fūin lay on the bed in a big X shape, staring at the ceiling, and her thoughts drifted back to a long time ago.

  At that time, he liked his father very much, liked his mother very much, and liked this home.

  What changed him was not his mother's departure, but because of that one thing.

  He also knew that it wasn't his father's fault, but... he just couldn't tolerate his father covering up for someone else's mistake, because that wasn't the kind of father he had in mind!

  What slightly comforted him was that after ten years, his father still hadn't let go of his love for Mommy.

  But over the years, his personality had become so stubborn that he couldn't bring himself to say those harmless words to his father...

  In fact, he really misses his father.

  Feng Jianli raised the photo and looked at Jiang Chuchu in it, with a bitter smile. "Jiang Chuchu, if it were you... what would you do?"

  Jiang Chuchu...

  I miss you so much...

  The next day, Jiang Wenjun personally sent Jiang Chuchu and Jiang Ningfeng to the school gate. He looked at the school gate with a thoughtful expression for half a moment before driving away.

  "Brother, let's go..."

  Jian Ye left, Jiang Chuchu looked at Jiang Ningfeng and said helplessly. At this time, he was staring at some students who were about to enter the school gate but stopped in their tracks and looked over.

  She thought about it and actually didn't care what others said.

  The content of the photo has been misunderstood by everyone, and it's pointless for her to mind, or else she would be the one who suffers.

  Although she really wants to think so, she can't let go of it that easily either.

  "Hmm..."

  Jiang Ning faintly responded with a "hmm" and walked towards the school gate. As soon as she entered, she said, "Jiang Chuchu, I had no idea you could get yourself into such trouble."
