Ah Jing knelt nervously before Jun Xie's eyes, his hands gesturing incessantly, his voice becoming more and more anxious. He was trying very hard to say something, but with his tongue cut off, he was unable to utter a single word.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! " Ah Jing pointed at the door and continued to kowtow to Jun Xie. The dull thuds came from the ground and Ah Jing's forehead broke with each kowtow. Blood flowed out from the wound but he did not stop and continued, as if he had exhausted all his strength.
"You are not mad." Jun Xie looked at Ah Jing calmly.
Ah Jing raised his head and the blood from his forehead slid down his nose. His face lit up with joy and he nodded his head in a fluster.
"You have something to say to me?" Jun Xie asked again.
Ah Jing nodded again.
"Get up." Jun Xie sat down at the side and took out a brush, ink and paper to put them on the table.
"If you cannot say it, write it down."
Ah Jing did not get up but continued to kneel by the table. He gripped the brush and scribbled down a series of words. His hand that held the brush was trembling, not knowing if it was from excitement or something else.
In a short period of time, Ah Jing had scribbled out three voluminous pages and placed them before Jun Xie's eyes. He then kowtowed at Jun Xie with all his might, as if Jun Xie was his last hope.
Jun Xie picked up the papers and scanned through them. What she saw made her eyes widen.
Ah Jing had been reduced to such a state not because of Gu Ying's senseless torture, but because ….. Ah Jing had found out a secret.
The secret behind Fan Qi's death!
That day, in Fan Qi's study, Fan Qi and Fan Jin were not alone. There was another person there, and that was Ah Jing!
Ever since Ah Jing was chased out of the little bamboo grove, he had been haunted. He had always wanted to get Jun Xie out of the little bamboo grove to protect Fan Zhuo and he had always harbored great enmity towards Jun Xie. But on that day, Gu Li Sheng had summoned everyone in the Zephyr Academy and revealed Jun Xie's identity to everyone. All the rumors that had smeared Jun Xie's name had been wiped clean at that moment. Ah Jing had been present at that time and when he heard everything, his heart was filled with regret and remorse.
He had wanted to rush to the little bamboo grove to apologise to Jun Xie countless times, but he felt that he did not even have the right to do so.
Jun Xie had never been such a despicable person. She had never done anything that would damage her morals. She had helped Fan Zhuo to recuperate his health and she had given it her all. But he had been blinded by the rumours and slanderous rumours, believing in one side of the story and wrongly blaming good people.
Shame and self-blame had tormented Ah Jing. He wanted to redeem everything, but he no longer had the right to do so. He was too ashamed to see Jun Xie again.
The guilt in his heart grew with each passing day, and Fan Qi noticed all these thoughts in his heart. Fan Qi had always felt that Ah Jing was an honest and kind child. Although he had done some foolish things, but he was not a bad person. Seeing that Ah Jing was constantly depressed, Fan Qi had the intention to help him resolve the issue.
Coincidentally, Jun Xie and Fan Zhuo were not in the Zephyr Academy and Fan Qi asked Ah Jing to hide in his study. He called Fan Jin over, intending to hear his eldest son's thoughts on the matter, and see if he could convince Ah Jing to convey his apologies to Jun Xie.
However …
That day, Ah Jing had been hiding in the dark room of the study. Through the small hole in the dark room, he had seen everything that was going on in the study.
