There were not many words, and Shen Ci glanced at them. His eyes finally fell on the three words "Ye Qingyue" in the signature, and his pupils shrank.

"So Miss Ye also helped." Zhao Chuchu came over to take a look and saw the signature and was slightly surprised. "Xiao Ci, when did you become so close to her?"

Being able to help shows that Ye Qingyue trusts Shen Ci.

Ye Qingyue wrote to Gu Yuan in just one morning. It was a short time, indicating that Ye Qingyue knew about the rumors quite early. Does she often pay attention to Shen Ci?

What Zhao Chuchu could think of, Shen Ci also thought of.

Chen Ci thought of the night a few days ago when the green figure walked towards him. The wind gently lifted her skirt, bringing a faint cold fragrance, and the jade pendant on her waist made a crisp ding-dong sound.

He stared at the three words of the signature, and something in his heart quietly spread out, with a hint of sweetness.

Zhao Chuchu raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw Shen Ci's absent-minded look.

Something's going on.

At Shen Ci's request, Gu Yuan gave him Ye Qingyue's letter.

Zhao Chuchu watched as Shen Ci carefully placed the letter in his arms, as if afraid that it would get wrinkled.

After thanking Gu Yuan, Zhao Chuchu and Shen Ci, who was holding Chengzi, came out from the back hall.

"Mo Cizui, I'm sorry, we shouldn't have believed the rumors."

"It turns out that the storybook of Gao Shan Liu Shui was plagiarized from you. I have always liked your storybooks."

"sorry……"

The people's spontaneous and sudden apology startled the three of them.

Faced with the flood of apologies, Zhao Chuchu, who was standing next to Shen Ci, looked calm and indifferent. She remained silent, and the emotions in her eyes were hidden under her long eyelashes. She nodded slightly and left with Orange.

Fortunately, when they left, the people did not stop them or follow them.

After walking for a long time, Shen Ci suddenly stopped.

He lowered his head, was unusually silent, and was not in a good mood.

"Brother Ci, what's wrong with you?" Chengzi tugged at his sleeve.

Shen Ci's eyelashes, as long as butterfly wings, trembled, and his slender fingers gently rubbed Chengzi's hair. He looked at Zhao Chuchu who was looking at him and gestured.

[Sister Chuchu, tell me, should I forgive them just now?]

Zhao Chuchu understood. Shen Ci was talking about the apology from the people of Tangzhou Prefecture who had just come out. Facing other people's apologies, Shen Ci left without saying a word.

Zhao Chuchu pondered for a moment and said, "Whether you forgive or not is your own business. It's not that you have to forgive them just because they apologize. There's a saying that knowing one's mistakes is the best way to improve. It's a good thing that they realized their mistakes, realized that they shouldn't have believed the rumors, and apologized to you for what happened before.

But does this mean you must forgive? In my opinion, no. Admitting one's mistakes and correcting them is a great virtue, but does that erase the traces of the harm they've done? Of course, if the harm is minor, that's fine, but what if it's significant? For example, if someone's deadly? Should we forgive someone simply by apologizing and saying, "I was wrong"?

For example, this time, they believed the rumors, perhaps manipulated and misled by Yang Han, but they did harm you. They are numerous and powerful. They believe you're a plagiarist, and you're wrong, so they might do something to harm you. Not only will you be attacked by these rumors and suffer mentally, but those around you may also be harmed by this.

Xiao Ci, rumors are like an invisible sword. Sometimes, invisible harm is more terrifying than visible harm.

For example, in modern times, online violence can easily destroy a person or a family. Rumors and public opinion should never be underestimated.
