Because he loved and trusted her enough at that time, he never thought of investigating her.
So, is their love just an illusion and a lie after all?
So he persisted in his wrong obsession for forty years?
When Mr. Zhan noticed Lucas's strange mood, he couldn't help but reach out and patted him on the shoulder: "Lucas, I know, in fact, you already understand everything at this moment. You just don't want to believe a fact. You don't want to believe that the woman you have protected for more than 40 years is fake. You don't want to believe that the woman you want to avenge is actually a liar, right?!"
At this point, he sighed softly: "Lucas, I have kept this secret in my heart for more than 40 years. Now, I can finally be free. I hope you can be free too. Don't think about the past anymore. No matter right or wrong, it is all in the past. Now we should live the rest of our lives well."
Lucas felt his nose slightly sour: "Zhan Jun, I have hated you for more than forty years for this. Don't you blame me at all?"
Old Master Zhan said helplessly, "Lucas, of course I have blamed you for being so stupid. I even thought about ignoring you. But before your mother died, I promised her that I would treat you as a brother for the rest of my life. Since I am the older brother, I naturally have to tolerate my younger brother unconditionally..."
At this moment, Lucas finally couldn't hold back his tears: "Zhanjun, why are you so stupid? Why do you do all this for me? I'm not worth it at all..."
"No! You deserve it!" Old Master Zhan smiled with satisfaction: "At least you once had happiness, and you can keep those happy memories in your heart. That's enough."
"sorry!!"
Lucas' eyes instantly turned red, and he spoke in a hoarse voice: "Zhan Jun, for the past forty years, I have always wronged you. I have always selfishly blamed you for Li Xinyu's death. I have always lived in my own world. It is me who hurt the relationship between us."
But Mr. Zhan smiled and said, "Lucas, you don't have to blame yourself. Although we missed forty years, it's not too late now."
"Are you still willing to be my brother even though I'm like this?" Lucas asked uncomfortably.
Old Master Zhan nodded vigorously: "Lucas, I said at the beginning that no matter what happens, no matter how long it takes, I am willing to be your best brother until I die!"
When Lucas heard this, he couldn't help but think of his original oath in his mind: "Zhanjun, from now on, I, Lucas, will be your best brother. No matter what decision you make, I will support you."
Thinking of this, his eyes suddenly turned red and tears couldn't help but fall.
How much of a jerk was he to not trust his own brother?
At this moment, Mr. Zhan reached out and wiped away the tears from the corners of Lucas' eyes, just as he had shown concern when his mother passed away forty years ago: "Lucas, believe me, as long as there is still warmth in your heart, everything will be fine!"
Lucas immediately grabbed Master Zhan's hand and said, "Zhan Jun, we must not only be the best brothers in this life, but also in the next life!!"
Mr. Zhan also shook the other's hand vigorously: "Lucas, we want to be good brothers for life!"
Lucas nodded seriously, then suddenly frowned and added, "Zhanjun, I actually have a secret about you that I've never told you."
"What secret?" Mr. Zhan was a little curious.
"In fact, Zhan Yichen is not Zhan Feitian's biological son at all. In other words, Zhan Yichen is not a descendant of your Zhan family at all." Lucas said.
"What did you say?" Old Master Zhan was shocked.
For the past four years, he has been feeling sad about Zhan Yichen's killing of his brothers. Although Zhan Yichen has been imprisoned, he still feels sad every time he thinks of this.
"After Zhan Feitian's wife married him, she was dissatisfied with his lingering feelings for another woman, so she went out to find a prostitute and ended up getting pregnant. But she kept this secret hidden and didn't tell you, the Zhan family."
"Lucas, I know you have many complaints about me, but why do you want to slander my family like this?!" This time, Mr. Huanzhan was angry.
"I really didn't lie to you!"
Lucas said seriously, "I used special means to investigate and found out that Zhan Yichen wasn't a descendant of your Zhan family, so I asked him to cooperate. But I didn't expect that he would actually want to kill Zhan Beiyao. Zhan Jun, kindness is hereditary. Have you never noticed that there's something wrong with Zhan Yichen?"
…
In the corridor.
Ran Xia became even more worried when she saw that Grandpa Zhan had been in there for a long time and showed no signs of coming out.
Just when she decided to push the door open and go in to see what was going on, the door suddenly opened and Old Man Zhan staggered out.
Seeing that Mr. Zhan was fine, Ran Xia finally put her mind at ease.
Zhan Beiyao immediately stepped forward to support Old Man Zhan, "Grandpa."
But Master Zhan took the initiative to walk in front of Ran Xia and said, "Xia Xia, your master asked you to talk to him alone."
"Okay." Ran Xia nodded.
Then he turned around and pushed open the door of the ward.
In the ward.
Lucas was lying on the bed resting.
It can be seen that his mood is much better than before.
Seeing Ran Xia coming in, he immediately waved, "Xia Xia, come here."
Ran Xia walked to the bedside and sat down, saying very obediently: "Master, you and Grandpa Zhan..."
Lucas sighed heavily: "Xia Xia, the misunderstanding between Zhan Jun and I has been resolved. For the past forty years, I have misunderstood him. It's my fault."
At this point, his eyes were red. "If you hadn't insisted on finding out the truth, I might have made a big mistake. Xia Xia, Master really didn't misjudge you. You are a good child."
"Master, these are what I should do." Ran Xia smiled lightly: "Now you, don't think too much about anything, take good care of your body, and when you are well, you can continue to be good brothers with Grandpa Zhan."
"Be good brothers?"
Lucas smiled bitterly and said, "I've hated Zhan Jun for forty years and made him take the blame for forty years. Now, what qualifications do I have to be his good brother?"
"Master, please don't think like that."
Ran Xia comforted him, "Everyone makes mistakes in life. You can't keep blaming yourself for making a mistake. I believe that the reason why Grandpa Zhan concealed the truth from you was because he didn't want to see you like this now."
