No wonder Yan Sijue said that the person Xiaoze trusts has never been him, and she's the same.
For someone like him, their first reaction is always suspicion; they've never truly believed him. Perhaps when Xiaoze was sent to that small town, he also misunderstood him?
Even Yang Ru is like this... If it were the other him, Yang Ru would absolutely not doubt his orders and would follow them without hesitation. But the current Yan Sijue, maybe because his methods and habits have changed, Yang Ru immediately doubts him, and after telling her, her first reaction is thinking... he's cold and heartless, rather than considering there might be hidden reasons.
Thinking of this, Mu Yiliang suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.
She always blamed this part of him for not trusting her, but it turns out she never truly believed him first.
