1882 The Truth is Revealed Part Forty-Seven (2/2)

Su Yue witnessed it back then, but would rather have guilt towards her third sister-in-law than betray her friend and send her to her doom.

But why didn't she let her off?

Su Yue was baffled. She choked. ”I knew that she liked third brother. I was upset and heartbroken. I even hated her before. But I truly treated her as my friend. I know that she sincerely treated me as a friend since the start…”

The words got stuck in her throat. Xuxu's eyes turned red and she hugged her tightly. She patted her back in an attempt to comfort her. ”I know… I know… I'm glad that you have a forgiving heart and the will to give her a second chance. I'm glad that you are so kind-hearted. You did nothing wrong.”

”No…” Su Yue pushed her away. Heartbroken, she yelled, ”I was wrong. I let her off, but she ended up wanting me dead.”

And most importantly, her benevolence cost Jiao Chen his life.

”I let her off… Then she killed Jiao Chen…”

She was too foolish.

She even misunderstood Ming Ansheng's grandfather and indirectly killed him.

Su Yue was wallowing in self-blame. She repeatedly knocked her head against the wall.

She closed her eyes, but tears still flowed down her face in an endless stream. Snippets of Jiao Chen lying in a pool of blood, to his ice-cold, scrawny body in the mortuary filled her mind.

If she had exposed Bai Jing's thoughts and actions back then, could she still have harmed her?

If her third brother knew that Bai Jing harbored such thoughts and even acted on them, how would he let her off? He would definitely make her disappear from the capital city.

Then she wouldn't have the chance, or even dare to think of harming her.
