Because I Cannot Hurt You

Chapter 215 - Lost The Only Family

Yunru and Liang signed off some formalities at the reception desk and began walking back to where everyone was.

Liang sighed. "I hope Jack Si could help us. He is a talented doctor I tell you."

"So you dug into his details huh," Yunru said.

"Yup. Jack Si has solved many complicated cases of brain tumor and all. He is a well-known neurosurgeon in America and his name is widely spread in Europe too. Like he said, if Xiaosi wouldn't have been so lax with his medications, he would have had a good shot at his surgery."

He faintly smiled. "It's a tough time for Caihong. And now Xiaosi's memories too...I hope he really doesn't forget anything."

Yunru slightly squinted his eyes in a deep thought. "On the contrary...I think even if Xiaosi forgets Caihong, it will still be beneficial to them."

Liang raised his brow in curiosity. "Is that so?"

"That's what I feel. Xiaosi has wallowed himself in guilt and pain a lot. Even though he was forced to do it, he still blames himself for that night. I felt that even if Caihong forgives him, he won't be able to forgive himself, and their marriage will be at a standstill nevertheless. After all these years of hatred and suffering, I think that they both need a fresh start leaving everything behind them. And if Xiaosi forgets the past, only then he would see everything in a positive perspective. It's like getting a second chance."

Liang slowly nodded in agreement. "I think you are right. Forgetting everything has its own advantages too. But…"

Yunru understood his nuance.

He sighed. "Yes. But the major downside is Chyou. Caihong is an adult, so even if he forgets, it will be difficult, but she can still keep it together. But Chyou is only six. How will she bear if her father suddenly looks her like a stranger? How is a child supposed to understand that her father has forgotten about her?"

Liang's expression was grave. "It will be difficult to hide his memory loss and make her understand her at the same time. But don't worry. We will figure something out. We are all there with Caihong and Chyou."

Yunru smiled.

From the corner of his eye, he saw Zizi near the pantry. Her back was to his side. He narrowed his eyes as he felt something was wrong.

"Liang. You go ahead. I will be back."

Liang followed his gaze and raised his brow. He elbowed him. "Yes, yes, you should go. *Cough* your fiance definitely needs you right now."

Yunru widened his eyes.

He chuckled. "Xinyi had already shared this good news to Ah Cy and me. We are really happy for you two though it came completely unexpected. Weren't you always fighting like cats and dogs?"

His mouth twitched.

"What can we say? Love blooms in the most unexpected circumstances~"

"I think Ah Cy is waiting for you," he dryly said.

"Oof. Such a hurry to drive me away," Liang puffed up his cheeks like a little kid and went away.

Idiot, Yunru shook his head.

As he stared at Zizi's back, he slowly stepped behind her and put his hand on her shoulder. "Princess."

Startled, she gasped and in shock, tripped behind. She didn't expect that somebody was watching her.

His eyes widened and he swiftly held on to her waist as he snaked his arm around it. He gently pulled her back to balance. "Careful."

Zizi felt disoriented for a moment but she snapped out. She lifted her gaze that met Yunru's concerned one. She froze as she realized that she had been secretly crying and quickly wiped her eyes. "W-what happened? Is Caihong alright?"

Yunru stared at her. "Are you alright?"

She stiffened. She awkwardly smiled. "Of course I am. I just felt a little thirsty…"

"And a lot of pain to know what Grandpa did."

She remained quiet for a few moments before her eyes stung in tears and they streamed down her cheeks. She trembled and covered her face with her hands as she broke down.

"Why...why did he have to do that?" She choked as soft sobs escaped her lips. "Yunru. Why did he become a villian? Bro and I love Grandpa so much...he…" she gasped, "he raised us in our childhood. We admire him so much. E-ven if he has a sharp tongue and he says mean things...Bro and I always knew that he loves us a lot. He wasn't just good in expressing it. Grandpa...was our whole world, Yunru."

Her cries echoed the empty corridor. She was angry at Han Huizhong but more than that, she was incredibly hurt by his actions.

"Mom, Dad always... always had arguments. That's the only thing I remember. Fighting every single day. Bro and I were so tired of it. And when Grandpa…he was supposed to enjoy playing with his grandchildren, he threw them out and took the responsibility to raise us. He worked hard all his life and he was really supposed to rest. But he had to become a parent all over again when he was really supposed to just sit back and see his family happy…That's why...bro and I," her voice muffled, "love him so much. We respect him so much. For me, he was nothing less than a hero. Strong, mighty, fearless and caring at the same time...But why did he plan to ruin Caihong!?"

The overwhelming grief in her heart gushed out like a broken dam. "I don't understand...The Grandpa I know can never be so heartless. He-he isn't supposed to be like this...He is rude and mean, but he is not a monster! But his admittance broke everything apart today...My trust, my respect...I feel that I have lost my father. No...not just father…"

She stared at him with vacant eyes, "Bro and I have lost the only family we had. Who else was there? Mom and Dad were too busy fighting. Uncle Mingli and Aunt Guang only ever cared about the Han family's wealth. There was only Grandpa for us…but now we lost him too. How are we supposed to love him after knowing the truth? Without Grandpa now, I...I feel so lonely Yunru…"
