263 Chapter 263

Wang Yu turned Li Zi Yun so that she was facing him. She did not lift her face. she was looking down with her cheeks stained with dried tears.

Wang Yu said to Li Zi Yun, "Look at me"

When Li Zi Yun did not lift her head, Wang Yu said again, "Look at me I said"

Li Zi Yun lifted to head to look at Wang Yu's eyes, and Wang Yu did not break eye contact for a second, "Do you think you're the only one suffering? Do you think I am happy? Do you think I'm happy to see you like this?"

Li Zi Yun did not say a word, so Wang Yu continued, "No matter what anyone says, I'm not leaving you. Get that through that thick skull of yours. (Wang Yu said tapping on Li Zi Yun's temple). Understood?"

Li Zi Yun nodded her head. Wang Yu was scolding her as if she was a spoiled brat. She buried her face in Wang Yu's chest and could feel his heart beating fast.

Wang Yu started stroking Li Zi Yun's hair as he continued, "When I promised you forever I meant forever. This would not have happened if I had not forced you to go there. So stop blaming yourself."

Both of them remained silent for some time and after a long gap Li Zi Yun said, "I think I have the worst luck in the whole world"

Wang Yu looked at Li Zi Yun with a blank face, not sure where she was getting to, "This is my fault. I should not have killed the Li family. I killed them and now my babies are dead. After all I stayed with them for eighteen years, I shouldn't have done it. Karma."

Wang Yu said quietly, "You did not kill them"

Li Zi Yun asked him the question that she had not asked for so many months, "Are they alive now?"

A part of her knew that Li family must be dead now, but she had not bothered much. She did not even bother to ask Wang Yu about it.

Wang Yu shook his head. He had them killed long back when someone sent a threatening message to his phone. When his child was born, he did not want any of his enemies to be alive.

Wang Yu did not want Li Zi Yun to guilt trip herself, "I already lost my children. I do not want to lose you too. You are the most important one in my life"

From the moment Li Zi Yun woke up, she wanted to ask this to Wang Yu, "Why didn't you save the baby?"

Wang Yu pulled her close to him and said, "As long as you're alive… that is enough for me."

Saying so, Wang Yu's hands slowly slipped into Li Zi Yun's top, "If you don't mind we can start trying for our next child"

Li Zi Yun swatted Wang Yu's hands, "You…"

Even when Li Zi Yun smiled, Wang Yu could not even fake a smile. His lips curved at the side and that was it.

Wang Yu at last said to Li Zi Yun, "Tomorrow you are going to meet some important people."

"Who?"

"You will see"

Li Zi Yun did not sleep a wink the whole night. Wang Yu was right, how long can she be mourning and make herself and Wang Yu miserable? Life has to move on. She looked at the sleeping Wang Yu. He had bags under his eyes and he looked exhausted. Li Zi Yun kept staring at the sleeping Wang Yu, and he suddenly opened his eyes. He pulled her closer to him and at last, Li Zi Yun closed her eyes and slept.

In the morning, Li Zi Yun was making herself presentable. Wang Yu had said that someone was coming to meet her and he was stone faced the entire time.

When Li Zi Yun came down, she saw Elder Mrs. And Mr. Zhao sitting in the living room. She greeted them and sat opposite to them. Li Zi Yun looked at Wang Yu, but his face was blank. Mrs. and Mr. Zhao were fidgeting and Li Zi Yun looked from them to Wang Yu but no one said a word.

Li Zi Yun placed a hand on Wang Yu's thighs squeezing them and at last, Wang Yu opened his mouth, without beating around the bush he said directly, "They are your parents"

Li Zi Yun smiled, thinking that he was joking but everyone was pretty serious. Elder Mrs. and Mr. Zhao were looking at Li Zi Yun eagerly hoping she would say something.

Li Zi Yun laughed, "You are kidding right?"

But no one laughed. That is when Li Zi Yun understood. Wang Yu was telling the truth.

Li Zi Yun shook her head, "No I must be dreaming. This is not true"

Meng Xuan Li and Zhao Yu Zheng told her the entire story. Li Zi Yun did not say a word the entire time. She sat still holding Wang Yu's hands with their words ringing in her ears.

Zhao Yu Zheng said to Li Zi Yun, "We know that no excuses from us will justify our mistake for not being near you… But… We would rather be happy that your alive somewhere in this world than cry for you our entire lives. If you, our daughter is alive… that is enough for us…"

Li Zi Yun nodded her head. This was so much information for her to process. Only recently she came to know that Li Shu Chen was not her biological father… now… even her mother was not her biological mother. She wanted to be alone and think about all this again. Li Zi Yun got up from her seat without saying a word. Getting up suddenly she felt like the world was spinning around and the next second darkness took over her. Meng Xuan Li screamed Li Zi Yun's name and Wang Yu caught Li Zi Yun before she fell down.

Somewhere four people were in a serious argument, blaming one another, "Why is she still alive?"

"You had just one… one freaking job to do and you mess that up"

"Don't yell at my boyfriend"

"We will never get another opportunity like this again. It feels like I am waiting for my dooms day every day. All the men and their families are missing. Who knows when he will come for our heads?"

"Relax. They don't know about us. We never showed our face. He can never find us"
