250: Why have I done to deserve this?

Why have I done to deserve this?

Xu Tong came forward and asked Xu Lei, "Lei Lei, is he the one who tried to harm you?"0

Xu Lei nodded and turned her gaze again to Lin Zheng.

Seeing Xu Lei in front of him, Lin Zheng's face turned deathly pale.

"Miss Lei, Miss Lei.."

Xu Tong rushed past Father Xu towards Lin Zheng, waving his hand around and giving Lin Zheng two slaps.

"Beast! You beast! Our Xu family treated you and your father so well. We raised you since you were a child. And what did you do in return? You tried to hurt Lei Lei like this. Why? What did she do to provoke you, huh? Tell me!"

Xu Tong was so angry that he gave Lin Zheng another round of kicks and punches.

Driver Lin could not see his son getting beaten up like this and rushed forward towards him but he was stopped by Father Xu.

Lin Zheng's eyes were red as tears streamed down his face. His terrified gaze was fixed on Xu Lei.

Xu Lei's eyes were also red and filled with tears that continually rolled down her cheeks. She was traumatized by the attempted murder. But still she wanted to know the reason why her family's driver's son would do this to her. She stared back at him with a gaze that reflected confusion, anger, and hatred.

"Miss Lei, I will tell everything. Let me explain! Let me explain… Okay?"

Xu Lei nodded, tears still streaming down her face, "Okay, tell me. What have I done to you that made you want to harm me so viciously?"

"No… it's not like that! Miss Lei, I love you! I love you too much, but you are a big actress and I am just a driver's son. We are not equal by status and thus I wanted to harm you a little so that you could atleast consider me. But trust me, I didn't want to kill you!"

Xu Lei and the Xu family looked at Lin Zheng in disbelief. Even Qin Yan was shocked. They felt like this boy was actually a monster in disguise.

"What did you just say?" Xu Lei thought she had heard him wrongly, so she could not help but ask him to repeat himself.

"Miss Lei, I love you! From the moment I saw you, I fell in love with you!"

Xu Lei shook her head in disbelief. She looked as if she had just eaten a fly.

"You… Do you know what love is?"

"I know! I know! I know!!!" Lin Zheng was was afraid that Xu Lei would misunderstand or underestimate his love, so he continued, "From the day that I saw you, I formed a special connection with you. I followed you in secret everywhere. No matter what you wanted to do, I just wanted to be there with you. When I saw those naughty children bullying you, I felt like my chest was about to explode with anger. After you left the place, I would make sure to teach them a lesson. First, I thought that I love you as a sister."

"However, we've since grown up. As you slowly developed, I realized that whenever I saw you in a short skirt, my body would immediately respond. Then, I understood that in fact, my love for you has always been that of a man for a woman. I don't feel anything for any other woman out there—I only feel for you. I only like you. I only love you! I only have feelings for you!!!"

"Don't say it! Don't say it!" Xu Lei cried out and covered her ears. She did not want to hear this at all.

"No! I want to say it! I've suppressed it for so many years. I must tell you! Miss Lei, I love you! I'd lose everything for you, even my life!"

"I only did this because I wanted you to come to my level, but I didn't want to seriously harm you," Lin Zheng said.

"You wanted to become an actress and you did so. But do you know how dirty entertainment industry is? How many people you have to sleep with to get a single role in the movie? Even if I didn't want you to join the industry, I couldn't stop you. You became a successful actress and went way out of my league."

"I even saw you act with other males. Do you know how much my heart ached?"

"I've loved you and accompanied you in everything for so many years. Why should a girl that I've worked so hard to raise fall into the arms of another man?"

"So when you got into that accident, I was very happy. I thought that now that you are crippled, nobody would want you. But this woman saved you," Lin Zheng glared at Qin Yan in hatred.

"The alterations in the machine during the operation were done by you?" Qin Yan guessed and asked Lin Zheng.

"Yes," Lin Zheng nodded turning his gaze back to Xu Lei, "Finally there was a chance for me to get closer to Miss Lei but you brought the most famous doctor for her treatment. How could I bear this? If Miss Lei recovered, then won't everything go in vain? Why would I want that? So I tried to alter the machines. But I don't know why the operation was still successful."

Lin Zheng's expression was almost psychotic. He looked at Xu Lei with an expression that conveyed fanatical love and paranoid possessiveness.

"So, you wanted to harm me again? You thought that you couldn't have me just because I was out of your league. You figured that I might fall in love with someone else. What you can't have, no one can have, eh? Because I didn't like you, you were going to destroy me, right?"

"No, Miss Lei! It's not like that! I wanted to harm you because I was afraid that someone else would fall in love with you. I was even more afraid that you'd fall in love with someone else. But I didn't know what to do. When your accident happened, I finally got to the point. After your incident, no man will want to marry you, so you'll be mine and mine alone."

"Miss Lei, I don't mind that you've been crippled! I wouldn't mind! I could never despise you, even if you went back to that psychotic state you were in before. I'll stay with you and care for you for the rest of your life! Miss Lei, I love you!"

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!!! Lin Zheng, you're a lunatic! A lunatic!!! You're crazy!!! How could you do such a thing? How could you be so perverted and so cruel?"

"Miss Lei, I really love you. Can you give me a chance? I swear that I'll do my very best to treat you well and make you the happiest woman in the world!"

With that, Lin Zheng reached out to grab Xu Lei's hand.

She took a step back in fear. Seeing that Lin Zheng still continued to approach her, Qin Yan stepped forward and hit his forehead with her hand, making him faint.

Xu Lei felt like she could not breathe. She had not thought her tragedy could get any worse. She could not accept that she had been crippled once! Her driver's son had been willing to completely destroy her and leave her in a despotic state for the rest of her life just for a chance for her to stay by his side forever.

Not only Xu Lei was shocked. Even the wise Father Xu was clutching his heart tightly. He could not believe that this person was such a monster.

The worst thing was that they did not manage to find out about this side of his before he did this. He used to come with Driver Lin and play in the house since he was a child. When he grew up, they did not forbid him from entering as they treated Driver Lin as their family.

Taking this brat in had led to the little jewel of the Xu family suffering such a tragic fate.

"Dad!"

Noticing that something was wrong, Xu Tong cried out in surprise and ran to Father Xu to check his pulse. With a horrified expression, he picked up her phone and dialed a number to make a call.

"Wait, I'll do it."

Qin Yan interrupted Xu Tong before he could make the call. She placed her hand over Father Xu's chest and massaged the area, her fingers quickly dispersing the blood that had accumulated in his heart. Then, she promptly performed her acupuncture treatment.

Xu Lei had been crying her heart out. However, when she saw that her crying had led to her father suffering from a heart attack, she no longer dared to cry. She obediently sat on the edge of the bed and watched as Qin Yan performed acupuncture on him.

The entire family had solemn expressions on their faces. It was only when Father Xu's face gradually regained its color did any of them feel relief.
