Chapter 391 - Test Reports

Was it her fault that Han Jingyi hated Han Mei to the point that she did not hesitate from committing crimes, to hire mercenaries, to plot a murder….? ''Is it all my fault?" 

Han Jing closed his eyes and inhaled a deep breath before he glanced at his wife, ''It's not your fault, Suyin. Any of this is not your fault. You, showing her the album of Mei was not your fault. If you never showed it to her, it would have been us treating her as an outsider or an adopted child. But it was because we treated her as ours did we introduced her to her sister who was not with us. I know it in my heart, I have never neglected Jingyi or Liyun neither did you. We loved them both equal…''

"But…'' 

Han Jing cut her off, ''It was not until today did I realize that Jingyi was never content. To her, she did not care how much we loved her. She wanted to erase Mei from our minds. It is not possible, Suyin. My child, she is my flesh and blood…no matter what, in her absence, a part of our heart will always be hers,'' As he noticed the tears in his wife's eyes, he wiped them gently and continued speaking, ''And we are not wrong for thinking that way. I don't think we have been wrong but we just never realized that Jingyi had long drifted away from us. She never took us as her own. And she had drawn a line long ago.''

Han Suyin nodded as she moved closer to Han Jing, ''We…We should talk to her.'' 

''I don't know what we should talk to her about. What she did was a crime and the person she wanted to kill is my daughter,'' Han Jing closed his eyes, ''At this point…I don't know what to do. I am just tired.'' 

Han Suyin refrained herself from crying when she heard that. Just like him, at this moment, other than meeting their daughter, she could not think about anything else or more like, she was trying to not think about anyone else. There was something else on her mind too which she was trying her best to avoid. 

…

5:45 am. 

Yu Mei opened her eyes and she looked at the white ceiling of the hospital. Finding her vision a bit blurry, she moved her hand to rub her eyes only to feel an obstruction. She slowly turned her head to the side and her brows tugged together when she saw Jun Zixuan sitting on the chair while holding her hand in between his palms and it looked like he had dozed off at some point. 

''Zixuan…'' She slowly called him, her voice came out horse because she had puked her guts out after dinner. 

But even that small whisper was enough to wake him up, ''You are awake? You need something? Water…'' Jun Zixuan straightened up on the chair before looking around, ''Or are you hungry? You didn't eat much for dinner…'' 

She captured his lips with hers, interrupting the rest of his words. She kissed him softly for a few seconds before pulling back as she looked at the man who was blinking slowly, ''Alright, I am head over heels for you. It's illegal for you to do all these things and…'' She paused and ran her index finger on his jaw before whispering, "…make me fall harder than I already have.'' 

"Cough…'' The tip of his ears turned slightly red and he turned his face to the side, not expecting the sudden confession that dropped out of nowhere. 

''You don't have to turn your face away like that, Xuan~ I had brushed before I slept,'' Yu Mei teasingly said as she stroked his jaw with her thumb. 

Jun Zixuan turned to look at her quietly as he narrowed his eyes, his gaze roamed past her cast, down to her body before it went back to settle on her face, the look in his eyes was meaningful. 

''Cough…'' It was her turn to burn red, ''You see…'' She drew circles on his jaws, trying to come up with a proper topic to break the tension in the air. 

''You see…'' He leaned closer to her and wrapped an arm around her waist, dropping a feathery kiss on her collarbone. As she jolted slightly, he whispered, ''…Just because I am sitting quietly, it doesn't mean that I don't want to grab your wrists, pin them above your head, push you to the bed and make love to you until you can't get hold of your senses,'' his deep voice was dipped in desire.

A shiver crept down her spine and her toes curled. She held her breath as his lips trailed lower, gliding down her collarbone. She felt a warmth on her legs as his palm slid inside her hospital gown, moving up to her knees and then thighs. It seemed like her heartbeats took a flip and she closed her eyes, taking her lips in between her teeth when his fingers stroked her skin.

A moan was about to spill from her lips when all of a sudden, every sensation she was feeling disappeared. Her muddled mind could not comprehend what just happened and she opened her eyes, blinking slowly as she glanced at him. 

"What?" He raised an eyebrow, ''You see, love. No matter how much I want things, I won't do that when you have got a cast on your neck.'' 

She blinked, her expressions morphed from confusion to disbelief, ''T-Then… why would you seduce me?" 

"Oh, that's because you look way too hot in the hospital gown,'' He winked. 

"_"

She cleared her throat, "You didn't get a wink of sleep, did you?" She asked softly. 

''I was worried you will need something,'' He said, tucking a lose piece of hair behind her ear. 

''It's just my neck which got a cast and not my whole body.. If I need something, I can take it,'' She frowned.
