Chapter 277 - Right Back At Ya! (2/2)

"Oh, I came to see my brother. He died ten years ago in an accident while he was trying to save my life. My mom started hating me after that and dad sent me away to keep mom senile. I haven't really gotten back since then. So, it's been a long time for me to see my brother. I really missed him." Hearing her talk so nonchalantly about her brother's death, Wu Wang was taken aback. Even he wasn't this indifferent when he talked about his dead sister.

"Sorry to hear about your brother but I actually was asking about why you were here this late? It's not a safe place for a lady." Wu Wang spoke when she took a pause to catch her breath.

"Ohhh!" After understanding his real meaning, she started again, "Actually, I came in the afternoon but I was too tired and the wind felt good. Also, the peace in the cemetery was like a lullaby and I just slept there until now." She wasn't the type to beat around the bush, she was way too honest for her own good. Since he asked, she didn't even mind telling him the truth even when she knew, he'd find her weird and freakish after this.

"Anyways, what brought you here?" Yang Ziyi's question was expected but Wu Wang didn't want to give her an answer.

"I came to change the route of a journey."

"Huh?" She was dumbfounded by his reply but Wu Wang didn't explain any further, instead, he changed the topic.

"So, you haven't met your parents in a decade?"

Yang Ziyi looked out the window pane and answered, "Nope! And now, I don't want to see them. I mean it's not like I asked my brother to push me out of the way. But they still blamed me for losing their son. Huh!"

"Your brother must have loved you a lot," Wu Wang remarked but she snorted in return.

"He might have loved me but I hate it that he gave me this life. It feels like I'm living someone else's life."

Wu Wang looked at the side of her face in a thoughtful manner before saying, "It's weird how the one who loved you left hate in you for life itself. Technically, you don't hate life. You just hate this world where you can't see your brother anymore. Life without the people we love actually seems hateful."

Yang Ziyi gritted her teeth since she couldn't find a way to argue with him. She had nothing in her defense since each word was the truth. Since she missed her brother, she started accepting that life itself was hateful. Denying the fact that she didn't like the world without her brother.

"I hate you more, now!" She grumbled in frustration.

Wu Wang smiled and replied, "Right back at ya'!"
