Tu Lie had already heard about the falcon incident, so he walked in with a troubled expression.
Shen Roujia instinctively met his gaze, and as expected, she saw disbelief in Tu Lie’s eyes.
He seemed unable to accept what had happened.
Shen Roujia glanced at Wen Surong before turning to Tu Lie, saying, “Big Brother, don’t worry. We still have another falcon.”
“This might be someone’s attempt to manipulate the situation. Don’t blame yourself, Big Brother.”
Seeing Tu Lie hesitate as if he wanted to say something, Shen Roujia quickly shook her head slightly, suppressing any further words.
She didn’t want anything to come between father and son, especially at such a critical time. Tu Lie’s image in Wen Surong’s eyes had to remain intact.
Even if Ai Yigu was involved, the Dayue’s goal was likely to sow discord between father and son.
They couldn’t let that happen.
As Shen Roujia shook her head, Tu Lie bit back his words.
“Father, this was my oversight.”
Shen Roujia finally breathed a sigh of relief. “Father, Big Brother and I will go out and take another look. You should rest and take it easy—it’s not that serious.”
Her lighthearted tone seemed to bring Wen Surong some comfort. “Alright, you both take care of your tasks. These days are unstable, so keep that in mind.”
Shen Roujia then grabbed Tu Lie and pulled him outside.
Once they were outside, Shen Roujia’s expression darkened. “Big Brother, are you really that foolish? Were you about to confess everything to Father? That’s ridiculous! Even if what I said was true, the real goal is to drive a wedge between you and Father.”
“You need to think this through.”
