Chapter 265 - Yao Yao, I’m Sorry (1/2)
After the couple had their breakfast, Zhang Yu Han drove around to accompany his wife to visit her father's resting place. While they were on their way to the cemetery, Li Qin Yao told her husband the story about her father and brother.
It was the first time Zhang Yu Han had heard his wife talk so much about her father. As he glanced at her expression as she was reminiscing her moments with her father, Zhang Yu Han could see how much she was missing her late father. It made him wonder why she had not talked about her father that much previously.
Though her parents had lived separately, from the way she talked about her childhood, Zhang Yu Han was sure that she had a happy one.
However, no matter how she had learned to accept that her parents were no longer together, Zhang Yu Han knew that it was still something that was painful for her.
As the two of them arrived at their destination, Zhang Yu Han helped her to get off the vehicle before he pulled her into a tight hug.
For a while, Li Qin Yao at his sudden action. She wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head on his ċhėst. ”What's wrong?”
”Nothing,” Zhang Yu Han kissed at the top of her head and released her. ”I just thought that you needed a hug.”
Li Qin Yao let out a giggle. Then, Zhang Yu Han picked up the bouquets in the car before he followed his wife to visit the grave. Suddenly, Li Qin Yao stopped on her tracks.
”What's wrong?” Zhang Yu Han turned to his wife and raised a brow.
Li Qin Yao pursed her lips tightly as she watched her cousin, Li Mu Bai, stood a few meters in front of her. His hair was messy from the wind, his eyes were fixed on her father's tomb, and his lips muttered something she couldn't hear.
”Let's wait here for a while,” Li Qin Yao suggested.
Zhang Yu Han followed her gaze and frowned when he saw Li Mu Bai from a distance away.
Subconsciously, he reached for her hands and held it tight. Although Zhang Yu Han had heard that Li Mu Bai was not involved in any way to hurt his wife, he was still worried. He did not want to let his guard down and give a chance for anyone to harm his wife again.
Because of Li Qin Yao, Li Mu Bai's mother was now facing murder charges. Zhang Yu Han was afraid that Li Mu Bai was someone who would seek revenge. Zhao Wei was his mother. Which son would not choose to side with his mother?
After a whole five minutes have passed, Li Mu Bai turned around and was startled upon meeting Li Qin Yao's gaze. He lowered his head and hesitated for a while before he finally decided to walk towards the couple.
”You're here as well,” Li Mu Bai greeted. He glanced at Zhang Yu Han and nodded as his way of greeting him.
”Yes,” Li Qin Yao smiled. She looked at him carefully and noticed how Li Mu Bai has grown thinner in these past few days. His face haggard and it looked like he hasn't been shaving for days. ”Li Mu Bai, are you alright?”
