Chapter 289: 289: I Had a Dream_1
“No, I don’t believe it!” Hai Xiaotang shook her head, “Grandpa, it certainly wasn’t you who did it, there must be some hidden truth, right?”
“Ah, grandpa can make mistakes too. But when I realized my mistake, it was already too late.”
Hai Xiaotang was shocked.
Did grandpa really do it…
“Xiaotang, I knew this day would come. I’ve been running away all my life, but now it’s time to face it. Don’t blame Ayu, indeed, it’s me who wronged them.”
“Grandpa, I still don’t believe…” Hai Xiaotang said sadly, “You are so kind, how could you hurt others, I don’t believe in it! You must admit it on purpose to save me.”
Hai Zhiyuan nodded: “Yes, grandpa admitted it in order to save you, but that is the truth after all.”
Hai Xiaotang widened her eyes, “How is that even possible…”
“And, grandpa turned himself in. It’s grandpa who owes you an apology for dragging you into this suffering.”
“Grandpa, I’m the one who got you involved!”
“Xiaotang, listen to grandpa. Do not feel sad because of grandpa’s actions, living here actually brings me some peace. But after grandpa is no longer by your side, you have to learn to take care of yourself, remember to take care of yourself…”
…
When Hai Xiaotang came out of the visiting room, her eyes were already swollen from crying.
Dongfang Yu was waiting for her outside all the time.
Seeing her come out, he flickered in his eyes, wanting to comfort her, but he couldn’t find any excuses.
Hai Xiaotang glared at him with some resentment, even though grandpa was at fault, but she still couldn’t help blaming him.
However, she didn’t want to see him even more.
Without saying a word, Hai Xiaotang turned and walked away, but she was grabbed by the arm by him after only a few steps.
“What are you doing, let go!” Hai Xiaotang was instantly angry.
Dongfang Yu asked in a low and hoarse voice, “Are you really planning to ignore me for the rest of your life?”
Hai Xiaotang scoffed, she laughed sarcastically, “You think I was just kidding?”
“We’ve given up holding grandpa accountable, he won’t be sentenced for too long.”
Hai Xiaotang was slightly stunned, she would be lying if she wasn’t surprised by what he said.
But, she hated him, not just because of that.
She hated him for using her, deceiving her, hurting her…
She just hated him and didn’t want to see him.
“Dongfang Yu, no matter what, there is no chance for us!” Hai Xiaotang pulled his hand away and walked away with big strides.
She didn’t look back, Dongfang Yu’s gaze instantly became vacant.
But when Hai Xiaotang was about to leave the prison, he chased after her and forcefully turned her around.
“Hai Xiaotang—” Dongfang Yu asked painfully and subdued, “Tell me, why do you hate me so much? Is there something I don’t know about?”
Hai Xiaotang was stunned.
Dongfang Yu had been holding back for several days and now he couldn’t stand it any longer.
He grabbed her shoulders, his gaze locked on her tightly, “I had a dream, I dreamed you died by hitting a wall right in front of me, and then you said something to me! You said if you knew this day would come, you would never fall in love with me. You also said that day, you knew this day would come, but you still walked towards it. You also said, you even died once without recognizing my cold-blooded nature. You also said I killed you again. What did you mean by all this, what did you mean by dying once, what did my dream mean?!”
