Jiao Lizhi went silent for a moment and said, "Brother Yan, you said that we grew up together in an orphanage, but then you left. If you left back then, wouldn't that mean you had been adopted?"
Jin Xuyan was lost in his thoughts for a moment before he replied, "I was sent away not long after."
Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi was surprised and asked, "If you were sent away by your adoptive parents, then shouldn't you have returned to the orphanage?"
After she asked this, Jin Xuyan went into a long silence before he said, "The one who picked me up is my biological father. With my father alive, there was no reason for the orphanage to accept me back."
This time, Jiao Lizhi was stunned by his words. She looked at his calm expression and couldn't find any ripples in his eyes. It was as if the one experiencing that was another person and not himself.
For an unknown reason, she felt heartache for him. She was so angry and devastated when she was betrayed by Mo Bingxue in her previous life.
