Chapter 945: Chapter 926: Don’t Break the Law

Getting lost in thought was just a matter of a second. Lou Xi quickly snapped out of it, stood up, and took two steps to stand in front of Lin Qianqian.

“Since your leg is injured, don’t stand up. You might get hurt again and have to go back to the hospital. Don’t overwork yourself.” Lou Xi supported Lin Qianqian, placing her hand just right, leaving Shen Youran with no chance to intervene, so she had to let go of Lin Qianqian.

And Shen Youran also wanted the sisters to have close contact to break down barriers, so she let go of Lin Qianqian to give the sisters a chance to get along amicably.

After all, in Shen Youran’s heart, Lou Xi was obedient and sensible, not making things difficult for the people around her.

Look, Lou Xi was being obedient and sensible now.

Thinking of this, Shen Youran’s lips curved slightly, and she retreated to her seat.

Lou Xi helped Lin Qianqian sit down from the chair, then looked at her and said, “I know you’ve always wanted me to forgive you. Actually, when I asked Mo Bai to withdraw the complaint, I had already forgiven you. It’s just that recently, there have been many things happening with the Qin Family, and I haven’t had time to visit you, but it doesn’t mean I hold any grudge.”

After seeing Lin Qianqian sit down, Lou Xi unhesitatingly withdrew her hand and returned to her seat.

In fact, you could sense Lou Xi’s detachment and politeness, as if she merely regarded Lin Qianqian as someone coming to apologize, not really as her sister.

“Now that the three of us are here having dinner, let me share my thoughts.” Lou Xi said calmly, “I was very surprised when I found out I had a twin sister. I was even more surprised to learn that my twin sister had been impersonating me under someone’s direction. Besides surprise, I also felt sympathy.”

Lin Qianqian’s hands were tightly clutching the hem of her skirt under the table.

“All those years ago, because of our uncle’s situation, both of us were left outside, receiving varying degrees of poor treatment. But compared to you, I feel like I had it better. At least I didn’t have to drift around to make a living, ultimately being used to do such things. So, I forgive your helplessness.”

When Lou Xi casually mentioned Lin Qianqian’s past, Lin Qianqian felt like she was being stripped bare under a magnifying glass, observed by others.

The embarrassment and shame all came from Lou Xi.

“But Qianqian, helplessness can’t be your excuse. If you had even a little thought about the person you were impersonating, you wouldn’t have done it. But it happens that I’m your sister. As family, I won’t hold you accountable. If I weren’t your sister, do you think Qin Mobai would have let you off?” At this point, Lou Xi’s tone turned cold, glancing indifferently at Lin Qianqian.

Lin Qianqian’s initial embarrassment had turned into anxiety. After all, Lou Xi was right; if she wasn’t Lou Xi’s sister, she might still be in custody, awaiting trial.

And the atmosphere became tense at this moment. Shen Youran couldn’t easily interrupt Lou Xi; she needed to let Lou Xi express all her thoughts for this misunderstanding to be resolved.

“But it’s okay, those things are all in the past. In the future, live a good life, don’t break the law, and be the second lady of the Shen Family with peace of mind.” Lou Xi said this with a light tone, as if those harsh words just now were no big deal.

And it’s precisely this last sentence from Lou Xi that eased the atmosphere in the room.
