Chapter 324 - Destined to be together (1/2)
”Li Xiaolu I need to tell you something...” Zhang Zhehan said nervously.
Li Xiaolu looked up and raised her brows. ”What?” she asked.
Zhang Zhehan gulped as he removed his arms from around Li Xiaolu's body. He looked at her curious and puzzled eyes and he didn't know how to start or what to say. He took her hands and his and rubbed them as if to lessen his own fear and get some strength from her.
”What happened Zhehan? You look so nervous....”
”I-I hid something from you.” Zhang Zhehan confessed anxiously.
”What?”
”That.... that... about...that”
”Are you having an affair?” Li Xiaolu asked seriously. Seeing that Zhang Zhehan was so nervous Li Xiaolu joked to make him feel at ease.
Zhang Zhehan: ”.....”
”Of course, not!” Zhang Zhehan said hastily. ”You know I would never do that.”
”I know. Then what are you so nervous about?” Li Xiaolu chuckled.
”I, I hid something very big from you and it's related to you. At first, I thought that hiding this matter from you would be for your own good. I wanted to protect you from this unknown danger but today, I realized that this is wrong. I should not hide anything from you. We are husband and wife and we should never have secrets in between us, ” he said.
Li Xiaolu nodded calmly.
”So, don't be mad at me. I am sorry, ” he apologized.
”What is it? Tell me, I won't be angry at you. What did you hide from me?” Li Xiaolu asked curiously, ”Don't tell me, you found out about who my real family is?” she joked half-heartedly.
Zhang Zhehan paused for a second and then he nodded.
Li Xiaolu: ”....”
Seeing him nod his head, Li Xiaolu froze. She looked at him in shock. She was surprised at this sudden news. She almost couldn't believe what she was hearing. ”W-what... what?” she asked again.
”I know about your real family...” Zhang Zhehan said slowly.
Li Xiaolu was silent for a few seconds before she slowly whispered, ”You... you know about my real family.”
Zhang Zhehan nodded.
Li Xiaolu was stunned. She didn't know how to reach for a little while. She covered her face with her fingers, her eyes welled up with tears. Her family... She can finally know about her real family.
”That's good. That's good.” she cried.
Zhang Zhehan held her in his arms and he patted her back. He knew that this was a big thing for his wife and until she was calm enough to talk. He let her cry because he knew that she was not crying out of pain or sorrow. These were the tears of joy. He could understand her emotions.
Learning in his arms Li Xiaolu cried for a little while. ”Are they alright?” she asked in a small whisper.
Zhang Zhehan chuckled at her question. Her first question wasn't about their identity instead she asked whether they were alright or not. He caressed her back before he placed a kiss on her cheek.
”They are fine,” he answered with a smile.
”Hmm...” Li Xiaolu smiled.

”Don't want to know who they are?” Zhang Zhehan asked with his raised brows.
Li Xiaolu looked up at him nervously and she nodded. Of course, she wanted to know everything about her real family. She wanted to know about her parents. At this moment, millions of questions flashed through her mind like a roller coaster. She wondered who her parents were? Did she have any siblings? Do they miss her? Will they like her? Would they want her?
