911: Hurting Truth...

Hurting Truth...

"If you really care for Xiao Min, then break your friendship with him. If possible, move somewhere far away. What Xiao Min's mother did for you in the past, her care and her love that was meant only for her son, but she shared with you, and for her sake, you should not do anything that will hurt her."1

"Is Mr. Xiao sure it will work, and Xiao Min will forget me?" Shen Li asked though he didn't wish to follow what Xiao Dong said.

"It will," Xiao Dong replied confidently.

"Once again, I will follow what you said." 

"Good…"

"It's only for the sake of Xiao Min because I love him and don't wish to take his chance away to have a good life where he will marry a woman and have kids."

Saying it, Shen Li left in a hurry, not even turning back to look at the man. Though he agreed, only he knew how to hurt he was and felt like crying the very moment. 

He had to go through everything again, pushing Xiao Min away by trying all the way possible and hurting him.

Xiao Dong stood in the gallery. He felt bad for what he did, but he thought it was the right thing to do for his son's better life.

Both were unaware that Xiao Min heard it all, and he was shocked after this.

--------

When Shen Li left the patient's room, Xiao Min noticed the bag on the table near the wall.

"Isn't it a senior's bag?" Xiao Min spoke as he remembered Shen Li entering the room and keeping the bag on the table before he sat in the chair to talk to his mother. 

"Seems like it. You should go and give it back to him. He must be nearby," the mother suggested.

Nodding, Xiao Min went out of the room and saw his father and Shen Li going towards the corridor's end. He wished to call Shen Li, but until then, the two men took the right turn. Also, Xiao Min felt it's not right to talk loudly in a hospital full of patients.

When Xiao Min reached the right turn at the corridor, he felt seriousness around and heard his father instructing Shen Li to stay away from him. Once they finished talking and Xiao Min saw his senior agreeing to his father's wish, Xiao Min felt his heart broke into pieces. 

He didn't know what to believe. Turning around, he left in a hurry before the other two could see him. He wished to go to them and ask what it was, but he was shocked by the sudden revelation of the things and needed time to process what just happened.

When Xiao Min reached in front of his mother's room, he took a deep breath to calm himself down and entered the room.

Seeing the bag in Xiao Min's hands, his mother asked, "Did he leave?"

"Hmm!" 

"It's fine. At least he will visit soon to get his bag," Mrs. Xiao commented. 

Xiao Min just nodded and sat quietly. Soon Xiao Dong returned and entered the room. Xiao Min stared at his father in disbelief as he couldn't believe what he heard was the truth. 

He stood up and looked at his mother, "I would be out to get some fresh air."

The mother nodded, and Xiao Min went out to the gallery. Staring blankly at a distance, he remembered the things from the past and what he heard today and related them.

He remembered how his seniors didn't meet him on the last day of his exam when he decided to confess to him. Shen Li was ready to meet him, but suddenly he changed and started to give him cold shoulders.

He forced himself to believe what Shen Li and his father said that two rival boss's assistants should not be together when the underlying reality was something else. 

These two people decided his fate and his life's important decision without him knowing about it, and they fooled him to the extent of hurting him and break him. 

Tears rolled down his eyes, and he felt like not to believe anything ever. The worst thing was the two most important people in his life were the ones who hurt him. Standing alone, he continued crying there silently, not knowing what to do.

In the farmhouse… 

The three sisters finally found a quiet place where they could talk about something secret. They went to the rooftop, which had greenery everywhere and had a shade with the chairs to sit. 

As they enjoyed the pleasant view of the greenery around while lazing in the chairs, Wang Shu signaled Lu Bao something, and she nodded.

"So, Ms. Lu, how is your work going on? I heard along with work, you get the nice view of a handsome face and hot body," Lu Bao commented, and Wang Shu smiled. 

Lu Lian gave them a narrowed eyes look, "You two started again."

"Where? We are yet to start," Wang Shu replied and asked, "So tell me, how is everything going? You two are still on bad terms, or something is ready to cook?"

Lu Lain frowned, "Nonsense. I am there to work only. If not for grandpa, I wouldn't have gone there."

"Yeah, we know. Now tell us something like how you are both together. Is he still the same or changed?"

Lu Lian thought for a moment, "Well, he seems a changed person now."

"Ohh!!" The two sisters said in sync as they gave each other a teasing smile. 

Lu Lian continued, immersed in her thoughts, "He is good with his work, focused and diligent. I feel like he acts ignorant, but he cares. Always act cold and never show that hidden good side inside him, but I am sure he is not that bad as what we thought about him….and…."

Lu Lian stopped as she saw the way her sisters looked at her. "What?"

"We should be the one to ask you 'what'," Lu Bao countered. 

"I was just stating what I noticed. I might be wrong," Lu Lain countered, knowing her sisters were ready to tease her.

"We wish everything is true, and your view about him keeps changing," Wang Shu commented, and Lu Bao added, "Days are not far when this family will have one more handsome son-in-law."

The two laughed while Lu Lian frowned, giving them a warning look that stopped the two from teasing her further.
