Chapter 16 A Silent Confession
My dad was seriously injured.
The entire Han family fell into chaos.
After a few days of panic people remembered me.
They took me to the hospital to see him.
I hoped my dad would never recover.
I hoped Jiang Zhong could have his own life.
But just when I thought that day had come I overheard Uncle Gu talking to him.
He said if Jiang Zhong wanted to leave the Han family they would eliminate him.
I knew I could not save him.
I never could.
With a trembling heart I went to find him.
I wanted to tell him to be careful.
But at the door I hesitated.
I did not know how to start.
Should I advise him not to leave?
I could not open my mouth.
I hated my own powerlessness.
I could not protect his life or even help him leave.
But after I opened the door everything became natural.
Jiang Zhong liked me too.
My heart raced with joy.
I kissed him almost reverently.
I begged him to stay.
I begged him to live.
If possible I would give him all my love.
