Chapter 193 - I'll hate her for the both of us

"I'll see you all tomorrow" Cixi waved at Sara, Joreen and Bilike from the cab and left them to her hotel room.

"She didn't still tell you where Dad ran off to?" Joreen asked curiously.

Sara shook her head "She didn't say anything. I just hope everything is fine." She answered in worry. 

She had seen her dad running out of the building and saw her aunt's disappointed look. 

"Have you tried calling him?" Bilike asked. 

"I have. He didn't take the call but sent me a text that something came up and he might return late" 

Sara scratched her head in frustration. Why didn't she have a clue about anything?

**

Cixi rested her head on the cab's chair and closed her eyes to gather her thoughts properly.

She had joined them in completely cleaning the restaurant but her mind hadn't been there the entire time.

What was that? 

She couldn't believe her brother still had a thing for that woman. What was he thinking going to meet her? Why did he care whether she collapsed or died?

She was beginning to get scared. Even though the Songs have been cut from Changyu, they could still come after them. She was also scared about Sara's safety. 

Why? Why did he still have to care about her after everything? 

She remembered years ago when she returned from school after hearing the news about her father getting arrested.

Everything had been turned upside down. Even her parent's account had been frozen. They had nothing to their name.

Regardless of what was happening to their family, Jianjun had repeatedly gone to the Song's estate to wait for Changyu. And whenever he returned home, it was with new bruises and a message that Changyu didn't want to see him. 

She had seen him countless times crying while holding a letter from her.

The day she laid her hands on the letter and saw the contents, she had sworn to kill Changyu if she ever saw her.

She dared curse her family? It was at that point that she also realised Changyu was pregnant for her brother and had said in the letter that she was going to terminate it because she didn't need any stain from Jianjun to ruin her life and she regretted meeting the entire Wangs.

At a point, he had even collapsed.

Even their mother had gone to her family's gate to plead with Changyu to come speak with her after she found out about her pregnancy but Changyu had refused to meet with her and allowed her mother wait for hours. She was also hit by the guards when she refused to leave without meeting Changyu first.

Everything Jianjun was going through plus their father's death caused their mother to have a heart attack and die also. The only one they had beside them, was Helene. Helene had stayed back to console them and help them get back up.

Tears slid down the corner of her eyes.

"Fine... I'll just hate her for the both of us. But I hope you'll be able to face our parents when you meet them one day"

If her brother couldn't fully hate her despite everything she did to them, she was going to volunteer and hate her for all of them instead. 

***

"Stop crying. You should be resting. Do you want to collapse again?" Jianjun threw his face to the side and spoke coldly to her. 

He didn't want to see her cry. He reminded himself to not care whether she cried or not but he still didn't want to look at her.

Maybe she was trying to play tricks on him again. How could she possibly not know about any of it? 

Her parents had come to their home to tell them they were only giving them what they deserved and Changyu was happy with her life now. Warning them not to never come to their place again before they did worse. 

So how come she didn't know about it?

Changyu ignored him and kept on crying. He still refused to look at her. She was awake so he should probably leave now. Yes... Leave now!

"Your Secretary would be here soon. I'll leave now" He said and head for the door. 

"Brother Jun..." He heard hurried steps and felt a hand wrap around his waist in a back hug.
