Chapter 294 - Knowing The Truth (1/2)

”What?” Han Yuanjun's heart was beating fast. The word ”dead” came out of Liang Zixuan's mouth, triggering a fear in him that he had never felt before.

Liang Zixuan's hair was wet, she hadn't wiped it off when she came out earlier, and the water had soaked Han Yuanjun's pajamas. However, he didn't feel it at all. He suddenly bent down to carry her, walked over to the bed, and carefully placed her down on it.

It's as if she was just an illusion from thin air. If he used too much force, she would disappear without a trace.

Han Yuanjun looked at her and slowly pushed her hair behind her ear with his finger. In a weak but forced voice, he asked, ”Baby, what did you go through?”

”What have I gone through?” Liang Zixuan's lips formed a bitter smile. Thinking about it now, her heart trembled with fear.

”In my previous life... The day I met you, I was unconscious and was brought to the hospital by Wei Xiaoqing. Wei Guowei ordered the doctor to perform surgery on me, destroying my throat, so that I couldn't sing anymore.”

She took a deep breath, and her eyes gradually turned red. Han Yuanjun felt his heart ache as he knelt on the bed and gently hugged her.

Liang Zixuan licked her dry lips and continued, ”Even so, Wei Guowei still didn't let me go. He was afraid that I would affect Wei Xiaoqing's future, afraid that I told everyone about her fake singing. So he locked me up in a house on the outskirts of the city for ten years. Ten full years!”

”I couldn't get out and had nothing to use to ask for help. Loneliness flooded me like a flood, and I was locked inside. I didn't even know what day it was.”

”The only thing that kept me busy was writing songs. I kept writing songs all the time. Wei Xiaoqing would come to see me every month, and then she snatched out the songs I wrote, sold them or gave them to anyone as a favor to pave the way for her career.”

”She also brought Hou Yingyi there to encourage me to write a sad love song. They both did it in front of me.”

Han Yuanjun felt Liang Zixuan's body trembling in his arms. Feeling sorry, he used a little strength to hold her in his arms and kissed her wet hair. ”If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. I won't force you.”

”No, I want to!” Liang Zixuan's eyes were as red as a rabbit's. Tears kept running down her cheeks, her eyes were wide open and were filled with intense hatred.

”That was not all. That day, Wei Xiaoqing and Hou Yingyi came again. Wei Xiaoqing told me that they had driven my grandmother out of the nursing home since the day I was locked up. Grandmother had no one to rely on. She had no one to take care of her and no money to survive.”

”Wei Xiaoqing was still smiling as she told me about my brother when he found out about grandmother's death. After he found out, he was determined to come back to pick up grandmother's body. At that time, he was on a very dangerous mission, and he wanted to complete it as soon as possible, and... he died too. He died in the wilderness without anyone collecting his body.”

Liang Zixuan suddenly raised her hand and hugged her head. She was in pain and despair. ”Then Hou Yingyi took a barrel of gasoline and poured it over my head. I could run away, but he stopped me and tied me up with a rope, and finally, he threw the lighter at me.”
