Jiaojiao appears out of nowhere, and the entire wealthy family kneels and begs for forgiveness!

"Back then, you died saving people. Our ancestors knew that you did not die, but were teleported to another time and space using a secret method. In order to give you a chance to return to the Great Chu Kingdom, our ancestors made us research time travel machines for generations. For a whole thousand years, a whole thousand years, we have been fighting for this goal!"

"Our ancestor also said that even if we can't find the time and space where you are, once we develop a time machine, we can return to the Great Chu Kingdom where you are, back to the time before you died, and thus prevent your death."

They revealed all their plans.

For over a thousand years, they have devoted themselves to the cause of Chu Miao!

Chu Miao's unwarranted accusations really upset them. The eyes of the group of grown men turned red. Their ancestor, whom they had waited so many years for, had finally appeared before them. Instead of praising and understanding their hard work over the past thousand years, he actually scolded them.

They felt truly wronged.

Their words reached Chu Miao's ears one by one.

Chu Miao's brain went blank for a moment.

She won't listen to anything anymore.

Their words filled my mind.

they said.

They researched the time machine for her sake. They knew all along that she hadn't truly died. They researched the time machine to find her in different time periods and return to the Great Chu Kingdom to change the outcome of her death.

that……

Isn't the whole thing caused by her?

If it weren't for her, they wouldn't have researched the time machine, and naturally they wouldn't have met Si Yelin's parents, and Si Yelin's parents wouldn't have died.

"Grandmaster, everything we've done is truly because of you!"

"And what's more! We really didn't kill Si Yelin's parents! You have to believe us! They escaped with the key first, and we weren't the only ones who wanted this time machine! They had the key, which meant they had a bomb! Before we could even lay a hand on them, their entire family had already been wiped out!"

……

On the ancient mountain.

Chu Miao sat on the mountaintop, gazing into the distance.

Her mind was in turmoil.

Although she didn't do it, according to what they said, Si Yelin's parents' deaths were still somewhat related to her.

Those people were researching the time machine to save her.

It was because of their research on time travel machines that those people were able to find Si Yelin's parents.

That's why Si Yelin's parents died.

Chu Miao felt heavy-hearted. She wasn't the type to take all the blame upon herself, but Si Yelin was different.

She considered Si Yelin a very important person.

She also always wanted to avenge Si Yelin.

But in the end, it turned out that his parents' deaths were related to her.

Even if it was just the slightest connection, Chu Miao felt incredibly sad.

She was so frustrated that she didn't even want to eat, so she just sat on the mountaintop.

Chu Yue came to see her once, but she scolded him and sent him away. Now she just wants to be alone and doesn't want to see or eat anyone else.

She was in a bad mood and had a bad temper, so no one dared to bother her anymore.

Chu Miao sat there from morning until afternoon.

As the sun slowly sets behind Xia Mountain.

Si Yelin slowly sat down beside her.

He looked in the direction she was looking.

"What a beautiful sunset."

Chu Miao heard his voice, turned her head to look at him, and pursed her lips.

“I used to love sitting at the highest point of the mountain and looking into the distance.”

“Whenever I’m unhappy, I just look at this and it’s as if I can see my deceased parents through that distant place.”

“The images of my parents’ death often echo in my mind. When I was little, I often had nightmares and was afraid to sleep. Xiao Lang would climb into my bed and pester me to call him Second Brother, saying that if I slept with him, I wouldn’t be afraid. Who sleeps with two boys?”

Si Yelin smiled when he thought of Xiao Lang's shameless manner. Although he complained about Xiao Lang, he was actually very grateful to him.

I am grateful that he has always been there for me. Even when he was a child, he was eccentric and never got angry. Instead, he would smile and come back to me.

Xiao Lang truly healed him a great deal.

"Xiao Lang is indeed a big fool, a complete idiot," Chu Miao couldn't help but say. Xiao Lang was the most carefree and innocent person she had ever met.

"Aren't you stupid?" Si Yelin looked at her.

"How could I be so stupid?"

"If you're not stupid, how come you've been sitting here all day without getting hungry?"

Chu Miao's mood sank again, and she said in a muffled voice, "I'm not hungry."

"Aren't you hungry?" Si Yelin laughed. "You used to eat two bowls of rice in one meal and get hungry if you missed a meal, and you also ate a lot of snacks. Now you're not hungry even if you don't eat all day?"

Chu Miao: "..."
