Chapter 735 Past Events
"It's just that a lot of time has passed, and he's the type who won't say a word. I couldn't get any information from him, so I went to ask Xia Xia."
Huo Tingrui twitched the corners of his lips. "Although she said she knew nothing, from her panicked denial, I guessed that the kidnapping case might really be related to her..."
Later, he called his uncle and asked him to check what happened. Only then did he find out that the evil people had kidnapped Lu Xia in the first place.
The third brother happened to run into her, and when they rescued her, she ran away. After she ran away, she never told her family that she was kidnapped.
Therefore, because she kept silent about it, the best opportunity to rescue people was missed. Although the third child was finally rescued, he was covered in wounds and was only breathing his last breath.
After waking up, the third child suffered from severe post-traumatic autism and became silent. It was because of this autism that no one in the family knew that the group of vicious criminals had initially captured Lu Xia.
But by the time he learned the truth, it was already two years later, and the third child's autism had gradually improved, so he went to ask him.
Huo Tingrui can still remember the bitterness when the third brother begged him not to tell his family the truth.
Perhaps because of family ties, he chose to take all the responsibility. It has been so long since the incident. If Lu Xia really wanted to, she would have told everyone everything from the beginning.
But she didn't, so the third child became discouraged and chose to go abroad.
He thought about it and decided that he couldn't hide the matter of the third brother, so he tentatively mentioned it in front of his eldest brother, but... he forgot that his eldest brother had always doted on Lu Xia the most since he was a child.
So, when he said that Lu Xia ran away on purpose and concealed the fact that the third brother was captured, the eldest brother's first reaction was disbelief. He also blamed him for imagining things and said that the youngest sister was so innocent and cute that she would never do such a thing.
Seeing his elder brother's reaction, he thought about how his parents also believed in Lu Xia unconditionally. If he told them, they would probably be like his elder brother and not believe it.
After a few attempts, he never mentioned Lu Xia again, but from then on, he didn't treat Lu Xia the same way as before.
Because looking at her, I can think of the autistic look of the third child.
Although as he grew older, he could gradually understand some of the instinctive reactions that people made in order to survive.
But the only thing he couldn't understand was that even if she had told her family immediately when it happened, the situation wouldn't have been so serious that it almost cost the third child's life.
So, sometimes, his parents would always ask him why he was not close to Xia Xia. Every time, he could only avoid the question but was always unable to tell the truth.
Sometimes the truth does not have to be told to be fair to everyone, and their family may be broken because of this so-called truth.
How painful would it be for parents if they knew that the child they have loved for so long is such a cruel person?
I'm afraid that's why the third brother chose to say nothing.
Huo Tingrui raised his head and put aside all his thoughts. After a long time, he looked at Huo Yao again. Seeing his sister's caring look, he was suddenly moved.
People are really different.
At this time, Huo Tingrui was very fortunate that Lu Xia was not a child of their Huo family.
