The cause of Wu Sheng's injury had been pieced together from the circumstances at the time, and it was certain he'd been hurt saving Little Hei.
However, the exact details of what happened were still unknown.
Upon hearing this, Wu Qihua fixed Bai Xinyue with an intense gaze.
"What exactly happened then?"
Bai Xinyue conveniently omitted the fact that she had gone up the mountain without permission, claiming only that she had been scared and followed him up the tree.
"...I had just found my footing and was about to check on Little Hei, but a gust of wind seemed to make him lose his grip, and he suddenly fell."
"Wu Sheng instantly reached for him without a second thought. I was terrified and rushed to grab Wu Sheng, but I couldn't hold on, and my eye..."
Bai Xinyue's face was a mask of misery, and her entire body trembled.
She stopped there, and while she hadn't said it outright, her meaning was clear.
She had injured her eye—had gone blind—trying to save Wu Sheng.
