Chapter 231 - I am sorry.

When Su Yuchen returned to his room, Xin Mei was already lying on her side of the bed, with eyes closed. He climbed on the bed and took his seat behind her.

He gently wrapped his arm around her waist which was thrown away by Xin Mei.

"You don't need to touch me, your wife who has a very small brain." She mocked and Su Yuchen sighed.

"Mei, I am sorry for yelling at you like that." He apologized guiltily. "But you have to understand. My relationship with Jiang family is something about whom I do not want to talk with you. I am afraid you will start to hate me after knowing about what we had in the past."

"I will not hate you." She turned and looked at him. "Try to tell me. I am sure I will not hate you."

Su Yuchen looked down and did not say a word. Xin Mei sighed and shook her head. She turned her face to the other side and attempted to sleep.

That night, both Xin Mei and Su Yuchen were unable to fall asleep.

Xin Mei wanted to know about his past. Su Yuchen also wanted to tell her everything, he wanted to lighten his heart but he was afraid she would hate him after knowing everything.

What he had with Jiang family was the only bad thing which he had ever done in his lifetime and he regretted it now.

The next morning, like usual, Xin Mei got ready. She was about to leave her room when Su Yuchen opened his eyes and looked at her.

"Where are you going wearing this dress, Mei?" he asked when he saw Xin Mei was not wearing the usual clothes which she wore at home.

"Don't tell me, you have forgotten that today grandma is getting discharged from the hospital." Her voice was cold and free of emotions, the same way his voice was from the last two days.

"Mei, please don't be angry with me. Please forgive me." He pleaded.

Xin Mei ignored him and made her way towards the kitchen. There she cooked breakfast for two people.

"What is this? Why haven't you cooked breakfast for me? Have I done anything wrong?" Su Zixin yelled when he saw that Xin Mei had cooked only for two. He thought that she had not cooked breakfast for him.

"I have cooked breakfast for you but not for Su Yuchen." She glared at Su Yuchen who entered the dining room at the same time.

Su Zixin sighed heavily when he saw the glare of Xin Mei directed towards Su Yuchen. He could only pray for his brother. 

Xin Mei served breakfast to Su Zixin and herself. She completely ignored Su Yuchen. Su Yuchen sighed and made his way towards the kitchen to fetch some fruits as breakfast.

"Brother, I am full. Why don't you have half of my breakfast?" Su Zixin passed his half-finished plate to Su Yuchen. He was aware of how his big brother was looking at his plate with greedy eyes.

"Su Zixin, if you are full then give the leftover food to me. You don't need to share it with him." Xin Mei glared at Su Zixin and then at Su Yuchen. She snatched the plate from the hand of Su Zixin.

Su Zixin felt sad and looked at Xin Mei. He was planning to do something good for his brother but he did not know Xin Mei was so angry that she would not let him have even his leftover.

After breakfast, they made their way towards the car which would be driven by Su Yuchen. Xin Mei purposely took her seat on the back seat.

Su Zixin was about to sit on the passenger seat when Su Yuchen glared at him.

"Mei, why are you sitting in back? Come and sit beside me." He spoke in a sweet and soft voice.

"No, Su Zixin can sit on the passenger seat. I am very happy sitting away from you."

Su Yuchen took a deep breath and shook his head in dejection. He was again able to piss off his wife because of his fears.

**

They reached the hospital where they made their way towards the room of Bai Yue. The environment of the room was very jolly and all thanks to Bai Yue. She was very excited to return home.

Su Yuchen looked at all the arrangements before leaving the hospital room with Su Lingtian.

"Grandpa, I have something important to talk with you."

Su Lingtian nodded and followed after Su Yuchen. They both walked towards the balcony of the hospital. Su Yuchen leaned against the railing and sighed heavily.   

"Grandpa, I have found out the name of the family who is behind my accident in the country S?"

"Who?" Su Lingtian inquired. He kept a poker face without showing any emotion to Su Yuchen. He knew his grandson was in distress.

Su Yuchen sighed and closed his eyes. 

"Jiang family."

"You sure?" Su Lingtian was also shocked when he heard the name of the Jiang family.

"Hundred percent sure. I have reports which all points that the Jiang family was indeed behind my murder plan. They had set many murder traps for me in the city S." 

"They had interference with my plane's engine in which I went to country S, then they planned to drop a chandelier on my head, they also planned to kill me by giving me an electric shock when I was inspecting the machines…they were clearly after my life and I got lucky each time."

Su Yuchen gripped hard on the railing and his eyes became darker.

"Grandpa, I don't know what should I do now? I want to end that Jiang family because they dared to kill me. Not only that, but they are also interrogating about Xin Mei. I know their next target is her. But I fell as if my hands are tied."

He yelled in frustration and irritation.

"I can't even touch their hairs because of your promise and I knew I deserved to be killed by them because of my crimes."

"You don't deserve to be killed by them." Su Lingtian cut him off. Raw anger was there in his voice. "Your crime wasn't so big to deserve death. Besides, we have already compensated to the Jiang family. You are already punished for what you have done. Now they have no right to plan your murder."

Su Lingtian sighed and look ahead. Sadness and bitterness flashed in his eyes at the same time.

"Leave that Jiang family to me. I will talk to the elder Jiang.  He does not have any right to interfere in your life. That chapter was closed so many years back. He shouldn't open them again."

Su Yuchen sighed and nodded his head.

"Grandpa, I hope you will be successful to talk with them. Otherwise, I will be forced to break my promise. I will forget about what I have done with them and will not leave any stone upturn to end that family. I can't let the people roam free who planned my murder or are trying to know about my wife. Who knows what they will do to her."

Su Lingtian nodded his head and patted on the back of Su Yuchen to give him the needed comfort.
