259 The saving Grace

With Wang Lu telling Lei Zhao how he saw Yan Mei in that state, Lei Zhao could not help but feel bad knowing that. 

He hated Wang Lu, yes… but Lei Zhao appreciated the effort that Wang Lu did—helping her overcome that struggle so Yan Mei could be herself again. 

If Lei Zhao were to be in that position, how could he have done it?

"I… have no idea." Lei Zhao rested his back on the rest of his chair, sighing as he did not expect how bad Yan Mei's past experience was. "She must have struggled so much. She must have…"

Lei Zhao did not want to continue the sentence. But this, however, was enough for Wang Lu to understand what he meant. Wang Lu drank the glass of water at the side as he also heaved a sigh, getting Lei Zhao's attention. 

"The man that you're looking for. His name is Gu Zhi."

Hearing this, Lei Zhao looked at Wang Lu, seriousness evident in his eyes.
