Lu Xiaojiu frowned, "Dad, you must be confused. Even if Xiao Bai and Aunt Ling are in the family tree, he's not my brother."
"He is your brother!" Lu Yong looked at Lu Xiaojiu, "Your biological brother."
Lu Xiaojiu's smile froze on her face, staring hard at Lu Yong as if she wanted to see through him, a silence enveloped the moment.
Lu Yong said, "Xiaojiu, this is why you can't be together."
"To stop us from being together, you even wove such a lie?" Lu Xiaojiu's voice trembled, her legs shaking, suddenly realizing it was an absurd night. She felt suspended in the air with an abyss below.
"Xiaojiu, Lu Bai is your brother."
"Liar!" Lu Xiaojiu shouted, "You're a liar!"
How could he be her brother?
Impossible!
Dad must be lying to her.
Lu Xiaojiu's eyes were red, breathing rapidly, so agitated that it seemed as if she couldn't catch her breath, her face flushed red. Lu Yong was startled, reaching out to calm her, but Lu Xiaojiu took a step back, "Don't touch me!"
