Chapter 584: Qu Lu’s Past

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fang Yao told her about those two sisters.

Qu Lu was adopted by the Qu family. She was already six years old when she first came from the orphanage. She had suffered a lot there, so when she first came into the household, she did not talk much and was wary of everyone.

At that time, Qu Lin’s mother was already quite old. She thought that she would not be able to bear a child, so she treated Qu Lu as her biological child and took good care of her.

At that time, Qu Lu did not have any friends and was a little mentally unsound. Coincidentally, the Ding family had asked the Qu family for help and allowed Ding Shan and Qu Lu to play together sometimes. From then on, the two of them became friends.

Ding Shan was a few years older than Qu Lu and knew a lot of things. She taught Qu Lu all sorts of things like an elder sister. However, Ding Shan’s personality was a little strange. When she was young, she liked to torment kittens and puppies.

In the beginning, everything was fine. Later on, when Qu Lin was born and their mother had a biological child, how could she continue to treat her adopted child as well as before?

Ever since then, Qu Lu had been neglected. The Qu family had to prioritize Qu Lin in everything. The most the elders said to Qu Lu was, “Your mother has a new child now, and you’re adopted. Just be obedient in the future. Otherwise, your mother won’t care for you anymore.”

Perhaps because she had heard too much of this and the Qu family treated Qu Lin better, Qu Lu’s mental state deteriorated again.

Later on, there were rumors that Qu Lu was jealous of her younger sister, Qu Lin, and instigated Ding Shan to help her fight against Qu Lin.

At that time, when Qu Lin was five years old, they almost tricked Qu Lin into entering the cold storage, which would have frozen her to death. It was also from then on that Qu Lin learned that Qu Lu was not her biological sister. After that, Qu Lin always went against Qu Lu and their relationship was hostile.

Originally, the Qu family’s assets would be passed to Qu Lu. Due to this incident, however, Qu Lin would take them away when she grew up and refused to give anything to Qu Lu. She even refused to let Qu Lu work in her own company.

Of course, the Qu family felt even more sorry for their child. Hence, they tacitly agreed to Qu Lin’s bullying of Qu Lu. This caused Qu Lu to feel more and more insecure, thinking that her only choice was to rely on Fang Yao in the future.

The Fang and the Qu family were both influential. If they could get connected through marriage, they would become even more powerful. Coincidentally, the Qu family did not want Qu Lu to inherit their assets, so they asked Qu Lu to find a way to marry Fang Yao.

The elders liked to make their own decisions. They did not care if the child was willing or not. Other than marrying Fang Yao, Qu Lu had no other choices. This was because she was already an adult. If she did not agree, the Qu family could terminate the adoption.

Regarding what happened in the past, Fang Yao said that he had only heard the story objectively. Outsiders did not know the details. The matter of tricking Qu Lin into the freezer had caused a huge commotion. Qu Lu knew that she had caused big trouble. Later, she explained to everyone in private that it was Ding Shan who tricked Qu Lin into entering the freezer. Qu Lu only did not stop her.

No one believed Qu Lu’s words. They thought that Qu Lu was just trying to shirk responsibility and wrongly accuse others. Ding Shan happened to have a fever and fell sick then. No one could testify for her, so Qu Lu had no choice but to bear the responsibility herself and let this matter pass.

Later on, even if Qu Lu tried to explain this to Qu Lin, Qu Lin still felt that she was guilty as an accomplice and had never forgiven her.

If this story was true, then Qu Lin was the victim. As for Qu Lu, her thoughts were also sympathizable.

She went through a lot to have a warm family, but because of Qu Lu’s birth, everything was lost and she returned to her previous life. At that time, she was still young and had not fully formed her views of good and evil, so she did something bad.

However, Qu Lin had also bullied Qu Lu for more than ten years. Qu Lu never resisted. This was not something that outsiders could give their opinions on.

In the end, whether or not Qu Lu should be forgiven was up to Qu Lin. Yin Xun was lost in thought, and Fang Yao waved his hand in front of her.

“What are you thinking about? You’re in such a daze that you didn’t even hear what I said.” Seeing that Yin Xun had come back to her senses, he continued, “If you help them make this social platform, won’t that compete with your business?”

“I was just thinking about Qu Lu and Qu Lin.” Yin Xun came back to her senses and explained, “Liu Ying’s platform doesn’t overlap with my business. My platform involves real-time chatting with acquaintances, while theirs is for talking with strangers online. The key is to input common topics to let people find you. Anyway, there aren’t many similar companies in the market now. Even if our businesses overlap, the market is a large enough cake for everyone. I can’t finish it myself.”

Allowing a rival company to appear and compete was not something an ordinary person could do. Fang Yao nodded and looked at Yin Xun with admiration..
