Chapter 1278: Chapter 1282 Too Wronged

He pinched Yun Jue’s shoulders, “The reason I showed you this is because I didn’t want you to resent your mother… She loves you, she didn’t mean to kill anyone, it was all… just a twist of fate, the irony of life…”

He remained silent for a long time, drank a whole glass of water in one breath, and sat quietly for a few minutes until he felt much calmer.

“I understand…” He turned his head to look at Gu Junzhu and said earnestly, “Uncle, you should have shown me this video earlier… My mom… she has been so wronged…”

His voice choked up.

Just like his uncle said, his mom didn’t mean to kill anyone.

It was just an accident.

Killing the mistress was an accident.

Killing his dad was also an accident.

But the police concluded that his mom killed the mistress and his dad, and then committed suicide out of guilt.

His mom was too wronged.

Even he, as her son, blamed her.

He felt sorry for his mom.

Gu Junzhu gently patted him, “I’ve been hesitant about showing you this… You were too young before, but now, you’ve grown up…”

At least you’re an adult now.

He never thought about letting these truths remain buried.

He was just waiting for the right moment for the truth to come out.

Today, the timing was just right.

Yun Jue looked at Gu Junzhu, his voice choked with emotion, “Grandpa… he…”

“Don’t let your grandfather know,” Gu Junzhu said, “You can’t let him find out that his beloved daughter intentionally sought death to preserve his reputation… Do you understand?”

This was another reason why he hadn’t made the video public sooner.

When he retired and returned home, he went to the office where his sister killed Yun Shengxun.

In a hidden spot, he found a pinhole camera, which contained this video.

No words could describe how painful and furious he felt when he saw the video.

At that moment, he even felt a twisted, demonic transformation in his psyche.

He desperately needed to share this pain with someone.

But in the end, after much thought, he kept the video secret and told no one.

He couldn’t let his father find out that his beloved daughter died to protect his reputation; it would have caused his father even more pain.

He couldn’t let Yun Jue see how his biological father was despicably intimate with a mistress; it was too disgusting.

He couldn’t let Qiao Zui, who was still in the military, know about it—he was worried it might affect Qiao Zui’s focus during missions and might cost him his life…

At that time, he hadn’t met Ye Xingbei yet.

He had to carry all the burdens, endure everything, and take responsibility alone.

Fortunately, he survived.

Time can dilute everything.

The torture and anger he felt when he first saw the video, he could now accept calmly.

He understood his sister.

His sister was a perfectionist.

She couldn’t accept Yun Shengxun being unfaithful.

She couldn’t accept her father’s reputation being tarnished because of her.

She couldn’t bear being imprisoned in a jail, wearing a prison uniform, losing her freedom.

His sister was the most beautiful, most intellectual, most elegant.

Whenever and wherever, she always presented the most perfect side to the world.

Even if it wasn’t intentional homicide, just manslaughter, a mistake that resulted in two deaths, she would be sentenced to at least ten to twenty years.

She couldn’t live through those disgraceful days without dignity.

So, he said nothing and kept all these secrets deep inside himself.

The police’s conclusion was that his sister had walked in on Yun Shengxun and the mistress in the office, and in a moment of impulsiveness, she had killed them both and then committed suicide.
