"I advise you to let Xiao Xia go as well," Meng Fan said, staring into Lu You's eyes. "Do you know why she's been by your side for 22 years and still doesn't love you?"
Lu You remained silent, seemingly waiting for his answer. In fact, he didn't know why, after being by Xiao Xia's side for 22 years, he had ended up watching her marry someone else.
"Because," Yu Xiuli said, "you've always played the role of a father. You've always treated Xiao Xia like your daughter, so don't blame her for finding you a son-in-law."

In that moment, Lu You seemed to hear the sound of his own heart shattering.
Yu Xiuli's words, like a dagger, tore through his heart.
But Yu Xiuli's words also made a lot of sense and completely awakened Lu You.
The way he had treated Xiao Xia before was very similar to how Old Gu did.
Always educating her, scolding her, reminding her.
Fussing over her like an old father, where could there be any romance in that?
