Chapter 609 Hurting Blames...
In the far-away city...
The man knocked on the door of one of the rooms and opened it. The moment he did it, a cushion came flying in his way which he caught up even before it could touch his face.
When he moved the cushion aside to see inside the room and took another step inside, another cushion came flying towards him which he stopped by another hand.
The man gazed coldly at the woman who was burning with anger and then moved his sight inside the huge room where everything inside was scattered everywhere.
\"What’s this, Zi Ruo?\" the man asked coldly.
\"As you called me a wild animal, a few days back, so I am trying to be the one,\" she replied and picking up one more cushion from the couch she threw it at him again, which he dodged.
As he went closer to her, Zhi Ruo spoke, \"You took my cell phone away and kept me in this room alone. I can’t even watch the TV or anything but to keep staring outside from the window,\" She said, getting up from the couch to stand facing him.
Gazing coldly, he took a step closer to her and she retreated as his gaze scared her and she sat back on the couch.
He leaned down and put his both hands on the backrest of the couch on either side of her, his face closer to hers, making her shrink in the couch.
\"Do you know what did you do for me to keep you here like this?\" The man asked and she shook her head lightly, not daring to look into his eyes.
The Man answered, \"Just because of you, I couldn’t save one precious life and lost one more person whom I admired.\"
One could see how he was burning inside with anger and wanted to strangle her at the very moment, but he couldn’t.
\"W-What do you mean?\" Zhi Ruo asked.
\"If you hadn’t kept me busy with your idiotic attempts of annoying me, I would have been able to save him,\" The man answer and picked up the remote control of the TV to turn it on.
\"I-It’s not working,\" she said but the next moment the TV was on and he said, \"It is.\"
What she saw the next moment shocked her to her bones. It was the news of Lu Qiang’s death. She stood up from the couch in shock.
\"It’s...how can it be? Tell me it’s not the truth.\"
\"It’s the truth,\" he said, who was standing just beside her.
Seeing the whole news, the tears rolled down from her eyes. \"When did this happen?\"
\"Ten days before,\" he replied calmly and she turned to look at him, her teary eyes showed how much she was hurt but disappointed with the man in front of her.
\"Why didn’t you tell me?\" she asked, but he didn’t turn to look at her and answered while still looking at the TV ahead.
\"I had my reasons.\"
\"Your reasons, huh? Do you even know what he was for me?\"
\"I know!\"
\"Then why didn’t you tell me?\" Saying, she broke into a loud cry.
He got surprised, but he didn’t have the heart to push her away. Her crying and sobbing became louder and involuntarily his hands moved to hold her.
\"W-Why is this happening? All the people I loved and treasured are leaving me. How am I going to live like this, alone?\"
With her words, his expressions changed and his hands, which were moving to hug back and pat her to console her, stopped midway.
His soft expressions turned into cold ones and he said, \"If You hadn’t kept me busy, I would have been able to save at least one person but just like before, this time too, you made me lose one person.\"
His words were hurting. She was not yet out of the previous blames he had been putting on her and yet another one came to her. She stepped back to move away from him but had no words to say.
He left the room, not looking at her even once and she continued crying while kneeling on the floor. A voice of her cry, echoing everywhere and his heart was feeling as if someone was piercing thousands of needles in it.

Lu Mansion... In Su Hui’s bedroom.
There was a knock on the door and Lu Feng entered the room. Seeing him there, surprised her and she asked, \"What happened?\"
\"What was the need of suggesting going to the town to bury Lu Qiang’s ashes?\" Lu Feng questioned.
\"It’s a ritual so that the soul of the dead person can rest in peace and we have to do it according to the customs,\" she replied.
\"We can wait for it. Don’t you know everyone is already in bad condition.\"
\"I know but we can’t stop what’s there to be done.\"
Lu Feng left out a light chuckle, \"I understand, as you must be so eager to prove he is dead as you can have your way now, mother.\"
His words angered Su Hui and she exclaimed in a loud voice, \"Lu Feng! How dare you say such a thing?\"
\"Am I wrong, mother? As there is no one in the way of your dreams.\"
\"Shut up, Lu Feng. Do you take your mother for this low?\" Tears rolled down from her eyes and spoke.
\"I am equally sad about his death. He was like a son to me. How can I forget, he grew up in front of my eyes. There was a time when I looked after him in the absence of his mother along with you and your brother. I fed him with my hands, put him to sleep like his own mother, I played and laughed with him. When he cried, I put all my efforts to make him calm. That day when he was born and I took him in my hands, is still alive in front of my eyes. How can I not be sad about his death?\"
Her words left Lu Feng speechless. He turned to leave the room and spoke, \"It’s a relief that you still remember those days.\" Saying he left, leaving his mother crying.
