Shen Yunci immediately refused.

Shen Guang looked at her, his eyes filled with hurt. Why?! Is he still pestering you?!

Shen Yunci suddenly turned around and looked at him. How did you know?! I thought you werent here.

Shen Guangs eyes reddened. You disappeared after I came back. No one told me what happened, and I couldnt contact you. I had to find out what happened!

Shen Yunci teared up and patted his shoulder. I didnt tell you because I didnt want you to be involved in this! I didnt want you to be implicated! Why are you, why are you so stubborn!

Shen Yunci gritted her teeth and stared at him, her chest stinging.

Shen Yuncis tears fell. Shen Guang frowned at her and could not help but cry.

He grabbed Shen Yuncis arm and hurriedly said, I-I didnt investigate Sister. Dont be angry. I only found out two years ago. Yes, Uncle Bai told me

He did not dare to continue.

Shen Yunci was stunned. Uncle Bai, why would Uncle Bai

She suddenly seemed to have sensed something and her body swayed. Shen Guang hurriedly supported her.

Tell me! What happened to Uncle Bai!

Shen Guang saw that her eyes were red. He lowered his eyes and gritted his teeth, unwilling to say anything.

He did not say anything, but Shen Yunci seemed to have understood something; nonetheless, but still wanted to hear him say it. As long as he did not say it, she still seemed to harbor the expectation that perhaps Uncle Bai was fine.

Shen Yunci smacked him twice, and Shen Guang endured it. In the end, he could not bear to see her like this. Eventually, he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth. Uncle Bai pa.s.sed away. All I know is what he told me before he left. He told me, but he didnt allow me to investigate, nor did he allow me to look for you. He said that it would make your lives harder, so I didnt investigate. Sister, it mustve been really hard for you

Shen Yuncis legs went weak. She could not accept that Uncle Bai had pa.s.sed away.

All these years, they had cut off all contact with the capital. Before they left, they did not allow themselves to look for their family because they did not want to implicate them. However, after so many years, things had changed. Their lives were not that difficult; as long as they hid it well, they could live.

However, some people in the capital were no longer around

Shen Yunci never thought about these things, as though thinking that they

could continue living well in the capital without understanding what happened to her. Yet, death eventually comes to all people regardless of who they are, and it would visit the people closest to her sooner or later.

Sister!

When Lu Zhi received the call, Lu Jingzhi, who was beside him, gave him a few simple instructions before leaving in a hurry.

When Lu Ning returned to look for them, she did not see Lu Zhi or Shen Yunci.

Wheres Daddy?

Lu Jingzhi looked up at Lu Ning. Sister, Daddy said that he had something to do with Mommy and went back first. He asked me to go back with you.

Lu Ning nodded and led Lu Jingzhi to the front seat. However, she was still a little worried.

She turned to look at the entrance of the field

Most of the events today were relatively simple. Past noon, it soon was time for the group event.

This jumping rope event was a battle of elimination, and the cla.s.s which defeated the most opponents would win.

This was a compet.i.tion of endurance and stamina. It also depended on the tacit understanding in each cla.s.s.

The freshmen rubbed their palms together, eager to give it a try.

Originally, it was a group event that everyone in every cla.s.s had to partic.i.p.ate in. The jump rope was a super long jump rope specially made by the school; it was also a huge test for the students on both sides who were in charge of swinging the jump rope..
