Although Ye Xunhuan had previously told Wang Zilin that if she wanted revenge, he wouldn’t blame her, if Wang Zilin truly sought revenge, Ye Xunhuan wouldn’t know what to do.
Seeing Ye Xunhuan remain silent, Olivia didn’t continue to criticize him but sighed slightly: "Think carefully about how you should handle this next!"
After speaking, Olivia didn’t say anything further; after all, no one can intervene in such matters, and no one can replace others.
Everything depends on what Wang Zilin will think. If she can let go, Ye Xunhuan won’t have to face Wang Zilin’s vengeance.
If Wang Zilin cannot let go, then...
At this moment, Olivia’s heart was filled with unprecedented helplessness. Having been in contact with Wang Zilin for so long, she already treated Wang Zilin as her own sister.
And Ye Xunhuan and her have known each other for a long time; their relationship is currently in a very delicate state.
Therefore, Olivia doesn’t know what to do either.
Olivia said nothing more, and Ye Xunhuan didn’t open his mouth to say anything, his face still showing unprecedented helplessness.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Shu had already caught up to Wang Zilin.
At this moment, Wang Zilin was crying like a person made entirely of tears, completely like a lost child, appearing so helpless and confused.
Dongfang Shu looked at Wang Zilin crying like a person of tears, her delicate face immediately showing a deep bitterness as she slowly squatted down, gently patting Wang Zilin: "Zilin, are you okay?"
Wang Zilin didn’t respond, still squatting on the ground, crying bitterly.
This matter has dealt her a huge blow; after all, she is not yet twenty, hasn’t weathered any storms, nor experienced any ups and downs. This incident is the biggest she has encountered in years, without a doubt.
Dongfang Shu saw Wang Zilin not responding, still squatting on the ground crying bitterly, and couldn’t help but sigh gently: "I know you can’t accept this, but it’s already happened. What we must do isn’t to avoid but to face it!"
"Avoidance isn’t a solution, and can you avoid it for a lifetime?"
Dongfang Shu started softly counseling Wang Zilin.
"You’ve treated Ye Xunhuan like a big brother; hasn’t he treated you like a little sister as well?" Dongfang Shu said softly: "He also doesn’t want to hurt you or deceive you!"
"But some things can’t be resolved with deception. Now, although he killed your birth father, when facing you, he also suffers torment, perhaps not knowing how to face you!"
Perhaps Dongfang Shu’s words touched the softest part of Wang Zilin’s heart, or maybe Wang Zilin truly listened to Dongfang Shu’s words and suddenly looked up, her gaze falling upon Dongfang Shu.
At this moment, Wang Zilin’s eyes were full of tears, and the mist in her eyes was like clouds, hiding her eyes, which should have been as bright as the moon.
Seeing Wang Zilin looking up at her, Dongfang Shu realized that Wang Zilin had heard her words and immediately said again: "And have you thought about why your Brother Ye felt he had to kill him, leaving no room for compromise?"
Wang Zilin shook her head blankly.
She truly didn’t know why Ye Xunhuan had to kill the king, and Dongfang Shu’s words made Wang Zilin immediately curious.
"If you’re willing to listen, I’ll tell you!"
"Go ahead!"
"Your Brother Ye’s mother was a legendary figure named Qin Fenghuang, truly as noble as a phoenix, worshipped by countless people!" Dongfang Shu’s face slowly showed admiration.
Obviously, she also admired Qin Fenghuang.
"She was a remarkable woman from Huaxia, single-handedly founded Fenghua Group, and became a leader in Huaxia’s business world!"
"She was the dream goddess for countless men, a woman numerous men dreamed of marrying!"
"Yet no one managed to marry her; she found some sort of man who fathered a son with her—your Brother Ye!"
"Qin Fenghuang came from an illustrious family; at the time, this was disgraceful and brought shame to the family!"
"But Qin Fenghuang didn’t care; she gave birth to your Brother Ye and raised him alone, although many men were willing to be a part of her life during this time, Qin Fenghuang never wavered!"
"In the past, I was puzzled; with so many excellent men, was there not one whom Qin Fenghuang found suitable?"
"But now I understand; it’s not that Qin Fenghuang didn’t find anyone suitable, but that your Brother Ye’s biological father was too exceptional, overshadowing everyone, leaving Qin Fenghuang’s heart with him alone!"
"Do you know who that person is?"
Wang Zilin gently shook her head.
"He was the Evil Lord, as for his real name, it’s not very clear, but many call him the Evil Lord!"
"Evil Lord?"
"Yes!" Dongfang Shu nodded: "He was an extraordinary person, also very complex, powerful, arrogant, with no regard for rules, just like Huang Yaoshi from Jin Yong’s works!"
"His life was a legend, a legend many aspired to, but ultimately led to no good ending; even your Brother Ye never had a chance to meet him, do you know why?"
"Why?"
Dongfang Shu took a deep breath, slowly saying: "He was too powerful, making everyone fear him, making everyone wary, and his existence threatened many people’s interests, leading everyone to want to kill him!"
"Later, certain events led him to be besieged by people worldwide, forcing him to flee like a stray dog, wandering constantly with no home!"
Wang Zilin’s face slowly showed surprise.
"And among those besieging him, your biological father was the most invested, the most desirous of his death!" Dongfang Shu bitterly smiled: "I was young then; I don’t know exactly what happened, but he really died, killed by your father!"
"But it didn’t end there; twenty years later, your father eliminated your Brother Ye’s mother, because Qin Fenghuang posed a great threat to him, he even targeted your Brother Ye, causing your Brother Ye’s brothers and master to all die tragically before his eyes!"
"Tell me, if such a thing happened to you, even if you knew that person was your Brother Ye’s biological father, what would you do?"
