Chapter 819: I Will Not Let Him Be Alone Anymore
“It would be better to end all of this pain now. The things that do not belong to you, you would forever be unable to get them. I cannot give you any hope. I have already gotten married. I am very satisfied with my Mrs. Zhou. I also do not have any plans to get divorced. I will do everything that I need to do to be responsible for you, but if you want anything else, then Han Xuan, I am sorry.”
Han Xuan’s face was covered in tears. She hadn’t had parents ever since she was young, and she relied on her older brother Han Hong in life.
She did not feel that it was bitter at all because Older Brother treated her very well. Older Brother would strive to bring everything beautiful in this world over to her. She did not lack anything compared to anyone else, and she was very blissful.
And after that, Older Brother became a soldier, and she was proud of her older brother.
But when she was 14 years old, she’d just got out of school when Older Brother’s batlle mate suddenly ran over to tell her that Older Brother was gone.
At that time, she felt that her world had collapsed. The entire world was spinning around her. She had tears in her eyes, but she was unable to cry out loud. She asked about how Older Brother died. His battle mate said that Older Brother died protecting someone.
Who was that person? She had yet to ask that question when a Jeep stopped in front of her. Zhou Yao, who was 16 years old, appeared in her life just like that.
He looked at her quietly before he stepped forward and stretched his hand out to bring her into his embrace.
All of the tears flowed at that moment. She knew that her older brother died to save this person. She used both her hands and feet to kick him and opened her mouth to bite him, but he was only so silent, and silently...
At the start, she saw him as an enemy, but slowly, as she got to interact with him, she realized that he was just like her older brother. He was extremely passionate. He was an extremely masculine man. They had a common enemy, and the name of that enemy was Scorpion.
The name Scorpion made her feel hate inside her heart, but at the same time, the name Scorpion firmly wove them together, and in the past ten years, they were by each other’s sides as they worked together with one another. She looked on as he grew up to be this handsome and nonchalant man as the days went by, and he was bold and mesmerizing...
She’d never imagined that he would leave her side and belong to someone else, because in her instincts, she felt that he belonged to her.
But everything happened so quickly. That woman named Leng Zhiyuan barged into their relationship just like that. All he could see in his eyes was Leng Zhiyuan, and she did not exist in them anymore.
She was not used to it and was not won over.
She was furious, and she was jealous.
She really hated this very much.
Older Brother left. Why did he have to be snatched away?
He was already the only thing she was left with.
Zhou Yao finished speaking and turned around to leave.
“Older Brother Zhou.” Han Xuan sobbed as she called after him, “You are just dumping me like this? Just...like how...Older Brother...did that time?”
For a brief moment, the tall man shook slightly, and after a long time, he did not turn his head back as he said, “I did not dump you. If you are going to persist and ruin yourself, then you are just giving up on yourself. If...Han Hong knew about this, he would feel extremely bad, and my...conscience is clear, with regards to my treatment of you.”
He lifted his heels and walked away.
“Older Brother Zhou, don’t leave...” Han Xuan ran forward wanting to chase after him.
But Zhou Yao walked over to the door very quickly. It was only then that Han Xuan saw a tall, slim figure standing in the dark corner by the door — Leng Zhiyuan.
She could not see the expression on Leng Zhiyuan’s face clearly, but Leng Zhiyuan wore his coat and had a pair of cotton slippers on her feet. Han Xuan glanced over at Zhou Yao’s feet, and he was wearing a pair of couple’s slippers with her.
Zhou Yao walked over to face Leng Zhiyuan. He stretched his hand out to hold her small hand, and both of them disappeared from her sight.
Suddenly, Han Xuan felt that it was just as if her heart was pierced by a thousand arrows. She stopped in her tracks and cupped her face with two hands as she laughed and cried. All the voices inside her heart told her: He actually brought Leng Zhiyuan over. He really was so cruel towards her.
Ha, haha...
...
Both of them returned to the Zhou home. They went into the room. Leng Zhiyuan removed the coat she was wearing before she climbed onto the bed. She raised her gaze up to look. The man had removed his sweater and was about to climb onto the bed also.
She immediately said, “Oy, who allowed you to sleep on the bed? The bed is mine. You go and sleep on the sofa.”
She was all bold as she stretched her finger out to point towards the sofa.
“Little bastard!” he cursed out softly. He decided to be reckless as he lay down on the large bed and said, “It is so cold in the winter. What if I get a cold from sleeping on the floor? You are really so bad.”
He was trying to reason with her now?
“Then I will go and sleep on the sofa!” She was furious as she stepped down from the bed.
Suddenly, a weight that came on her body. The man stretched two muscular arms out to pull her down, and he dragged her over into his embrace. He used two legs to press down on her tightly as he trapped her. He buried his head in her hair as he softly said, “I am not going to touch you, sleep.”
His voice had a hint of fatigue in it.
Leng Zhiyuan stopped moving immediately. She knew that he was in a bad mood, and just now, when he was driving, he did not say a single word. He treated Han Xuan like that in the bar, so he must feel bad inside his heart for doing that, right?
He always handled matters simply and cleanly. He was a man who was straightforward and frank, but Han Xuan was a special existence. Behind Han Xuan was a wedge that he was unable to cross over from the time he was 16 years old, and he was unable to break away from the guilt.
Leng Zhiyuan did not know how to comfort him, or maybe he did not need to be comforted. He was already used to shouldering all of the stress all by himself...
Her heart suddenly felt very painful.
She felt pain because of him.
Zhou Yao, when will you be able to let yourself go?
And let yourself take a break?
...
In the wee hours of the morning, Leng Zhiyuan woke up in Zhou Yao’s embrace. She realized that something was not right. The man that was hugging her was trembling slightly, and there was a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.
“Zhou Yao, what is wrong with you?” She turned around and faced him, then she stretched her small hand out to wipe the sweat away.
Zhou Yao shut his eyes tight. He seemed to have a nightmare. His large palm on her waist could not stop exerting strength. His face was all pale as he murmured to himself, “Don’t... Don’t... Han Hong...”
He was saying the name Han Hong.
Leng Zhiyuan quickly used both of her small hands to cup his strong handsome face as she gently comforted him. “Zhou Yao, that was not your fault. Everything has already passed... Forget them. Forget everything...”
Zhou Yao did not open his eyes. His entire body felt cold. His expressions were all in pain as he said, “Han Hong... I am sorry...”
That man did not even have the courage to say sorry in real life. That was the mistake he made when he was young. He was embarrassed, so he could only secretly apologize in his dreams.
Leng Zhiyuan pulled the blankets over and covered both of them. She hugged him very tight and used her own warmth to warm his ice-cold body as she said, “Zhou Yao, I will accompany you. I will share the burden with you... Don’t be scared; you are not alone anymore..”
Leng Zhiyuan bent down to kiss his cheek. Slowly, she kissed every inch of his face.
At this moment, she only had one thought, and that was — In the future, he will never be alone anymore.
She already knew from the start that there would be much danger and difficulties being together with him. Han Xuan might become a wedge that both of them were unable to cross, but what was the big deal about this? The road to love was never meant to be smooth, but it was fine as long as he firmly held her hand.
As long as he did not let go of her, she would not leave him.
At this moment, she suddenly understood what love was — what was called love... Love was merely just a naïve thought for a moment, and suddenly, that thought turned into forever. This was the feeling that would last for the rest of her life.
