Instead of asking directly, Song Binyu asked Lu Qiqi for confirmation, "Can I trust you?"

This question surprised Lu Qiqi for a moment.

However, she quickly realized, "If you trust Song Yanqing, you can trust me."

A hint of hesitation flashed across Song Binyu's face, a very subtle expression, but Lu Qiqi still caught it.

But she didn't urge him, because she knew that Song Binyu was probably in some serious situation, perhaps even something life-threatening.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have acted so strangely, dismissing everyone else to speak with her alone.

After taking a deep breath, Song Binyu stared intently at Lu Qiqi.

After a long pause, he said, "That day, my mother and I were being chased and nearly fell off a cliff."

My mother held on tightly to the reins to save me, which prevented us from dying in the crash.

Song Binyu was still just a child. Recalling the painful moments from back then, all the grief appeared on his tender face.

He showed a pained expression, "Fortunately, the Shadow Guards arrived in time and saved me and my mother."

Since that day, my leg has been severely injured, and I have never been able to stand up again.

Not long after, she heard the news that her mother had hanged herself, and she followed her father in death.

The night before my mother hanged herself, she told me to live well, even if I could never stand up again, I must preserve my life.

Lu Qiqi wanted to say a few words of comfort to him, but before she could even put her hand on his shoulder, she heard some explosive news.

Song Binyu continued, "The black-clad men who attacked my mother and me on the day the carriage accident happened."

I remember one of them had a red birthmark on his hand.

Today I saw the exact same birthmark on the hand of the Second Imperial Uncle's attendant!
