Actually, even up till now, Li Weihuan had to admit that there were many things about Lu Yinchu that he would never be able to achieve in his lifetime.
Before he met Nanxi, many of his actions were to seek affirmation from his uncle.
In his eyes, one word of praise from his uncle was worth ten or a hundred from anyone else; similarly, one word of disapproval from him would be a devastating blow.
He admired his uncle, he liked his uncle; he viewed his uncle as an almost perfect being.
He had made many mistakes in this life. He mistreated his parents, his two elder sisters, even Nanxi. But the accumulated mistakes could not compare to the gravity and depth of his machinations against his uncle.
He could stand tall and arrogant in front of everyone else as if he were a young master, but in front of his uncle, he was always in a lower position, looking up with humility.
People always make mistakes in ignorance and continue making them through indulgence.
