Chapter 1258 What Had I Done Wrong
- “No, I wasn’t—”
- “You were!” Lu Yuzhen cut her off. “Xia Micheng, you are too selfish and cruel. Let me ask you this. Why did you send Chikai to me? Did you abandon Chikai and me? You tossed both of us—father and son—out of your world. You only raised Tiao and Yi. You did not even inform me about their existence, and in the blink of an eye, Tiao and Yi are already all grown up! Time passed so quickly that I didn't even get the chance to see them grow in person! Besides, how could you treat Chikai in such a horrible way? It has been three years! How many days and months were there? He is your biological son! How could you not visit him at all?!” Lu Yuzhen sat up; his sculpted chest was heaving, whereas his narrow eyes were now red with tears.
- Time is a horrible thing, and it hurts the most. Three years ago, she stabbed my heart viciously at the riverside in the forbidden land. Then, she left with Su Ju without a backward glance, abandoning me. With my very own eyes, I witnessed her disappear from the world with Su Ju. She vanished from my life, and I thought naïvely that that should be the worst point of my life. However, that’s not true. The three years after that, as days and months passed by, I stood alone in the streets. I had Lu Chikai, who was barely a few months’ old, in my arms. When he started to speak, and he called for ‘mom’, I started searching for her shadow among countless women. I realized that Xia Micheng did not just stab me with a knife at the riverside in the forbidden land. That is because, throughout the three years later on, that stab wound started rotting. It festered and bore holes in me until I was completely hopeless.
