On the other hand, Han Nanxian was calmly sitting in the police station after beating the hell out of the douchebag. He looked at his cracked knuckles and felt good for some reason. She always dates douchebags.
Today, his dream of beating one douchebag was fulfilled and he would be damned if he said he was not feeling good. He was feeling so good that he could barely keep the smile off his lips.
“Do you want to contact anyone for your bail?” The police officer asked him.
Han Nanxian smiled and shook his head. He would be stupid if he contacted his personal lawyer and asked her for bail. She would tease him for life. However, it wasn’t her teasing that irked him but her mediation in his romantic life.
A while later, Song Xueyun appeared anxiously and went to him. “Nanxian, I contacted a lawyer. He will be here and you will be out soon.”
Han Nanxian pitifully nodded his head. He looked as if he was so sad to be here when the case was exactly the opposite.
“Were you stupid to beat Jack?” Song Xueyun questioned him.
“He hurt you and instead of apologizing he acted as if he had not done anything wrong, ” Han Nanxian said. “You know what else? He didn’t even have an ounce of regret. He cheated on such a great girl. Why do you always find douchebags?”
Song Xueyun pursed her lips. “I’m not here to be judged by you.”
Since he was not behind the bar but sitting on a stool in the police station, he pulled her wrist and hugged her. “It’s so good to see you again, Yunyun.”
“You shouldn’t go hugging a random woman in a police station, ” Song Xueyun said but she didn’t pull her away.
“Then, you should be leaving me alone here to fend for myself, ” Han Nanxian retorted.
“I’m not like you, ” Song Xueyun said. “I can’t leave you here because you are stuck here because of me in the first place.”
“You didn’t ask me to beat the douchebag, ” Han Nanxian argued.
“Stop arguing, ” Song Xueyun said in a strict tone.
“Okay, ” He said like a good boy.
“I will ask you a question and you will answer it honestly. One lie and I’m out, ” Song Xueyun said, staring at his achingly handsome face.
Han Nanxian nodded his head. Why would he lie to her? Even if she asked for the passcode to his immense wealth, he would gladly give it to her.
“Were you the mysterious sponsor who supported my undergraduate and postgraduate degree?” Song Xueyun asked. “Don’t give me the crap that it was not you. Tell me how can nice things happen to me all of a sudden? I did nothing good. Still, I was given all the nice opportunities. I studied in the most expensive college of the country and my savings were not enough but overnight a mysterious sponsor said he would support me because of my grade when there was a student who was poorer and with better grades.”
Han Nanxian pursed his lips. He didn’t know how to answer. Could he tell her that he was the creep who had been keeping an eye on her all these years because he couldn’t stop himself from going back to her again and again?
“Oh, so it was really you, ” Song Xueyun said. She could still read him like an open book much to her distress. God, why was meeting him again more difficult than she had expected?
“If you cared so much for me, why didn’t you come back?” Song Xueyun questioned him. “I agree I would be angry at you for leaving for a day or a week or a month or maybe even a year but I would begin talking to you. You know why? Because it was you but now it’s been nine years and don’t give me the bullshit that you are back for me now. You are nine years late.”
Han Nanxian lowered his gaze as he didn’t know what he was supposed to say at this time.
“Can I ask why you left?” Song Xueyun questioned.
“My father….” Han Nanxian didn’t have to complete his sentence. “He is well an asshole…”
Song Xueyun felt her heart squeeze for the boy who only wanted his father’s love, nothing else but what he got in return was something that she wished one child would get.
“Xueyun, I didn’t return because I’m weak, “Han Nanxian finally said. “I don’t know if I would get the chance to say it again or not but today I will clear everything because someone close to me said that I need to stop avoiding and start facing the truth. For nine years, I have been running away from the biggest truth of my life.”
Song Xueyun stared at him as he said, “When I left I had my last checkup with my doctor, he said that there is a chance my cancer will be back. I was scared. What if I fell sick again and you all have to sacrifice yourself for me? Zixin was finally opening up his heart to me. I didn’t want to lose him. I wanted you the most at that time but I was scared. I was scared that you would have to be with me all your life. Your mother’s illness has already affected you a lot. I didn’t want the same for you again.”
“You have no right to take away the option from me, ” Song Xueyun said. “It should have been my decision not yours. I really wanna hate you so much at this time but I know what you did and why you did. You just don’t want me to be like the scared little girl again. The girl who had seen her mother and best friend fighting a deadly disease.”
