Chapter 1094: Chapter 1093: I Need to Go Explain to Her! (4th update)
In less than half an hour, Ye Haochuan arrived at the Kou Family. At this mont, the gates of the Kou Family were tightly shut, and a heavy atmosphere enveloped Ye Haochuan, pressing down on him.
Ye Haochuan sighed, knocked on the door a few tis, and after a long while, the door creaked open, revealing Tang Zhen’s slightly sorrowful face.
However, upon seeing Ye Haochuan, Tang Zhen’s sorrow instantly turned into boundless rage. He shouted angrily at Ye Haochuan, “Ye Haochuan, what are you doing here? You’re not welco here, get out!”
Ye Haochuan’s face darkened. Being cursed at to leave as soon as he arrived would make anyone feel displeased. But thinking that Old Master Kou had just passed away, it was inappropriate to make a scene here, so he suppressed his anger and said, “I ca to see Grandpa?”
“Who do you think you are? How dare you call him Grandpa?” Tang Zhen snorted coldly.
Ye Haochuan’s eyes narrowed, and he said solemnly, “Tang Zhen, watch what you say. I am Jingjing’s boyfriend; what’s wrong with calling him Grandpa?”
“That was in the past, now you are not!” Tang Zhen’s voice was loud, as if he wanted the whole world to hear this sentence.
“What do you an?” Ye Haochuan asked in a deep voice.
“What do I an? You bastard, where were you when Jingjing needed you? And now you co back calling yourself her boyfriend? I’m telling you, it’s too late!” Tang Zhen yelled.
Ye Haochuan was startled by the words, and suddenly felt dumbfounded.
When she needed the most? Wasn’t that when Grandpa was ill?
Old Master Kou suddenly fell ill. If Ye Haochuan had been there, with his dical skills, he could definitely have prevented this tragedy.
But he happened to be in the Desolate Realm at that ti, and couldn’t be reached by phone. How could he possibly be there?
Ye Haochuan could even imagine Kou Jing’s current state of mind, she must hate him to death by now.
No, I have to go explain to her!
Thinking of this, Ye Haochuan’s heart ached. He ignored Tang Zhen and walked directly inside.
However, just as he took a step, Tang Zhen reached out an arm to block him.
“Get out of the way!” Ye Haochuan, already angry, was on the verge of exploding from being obstructed repeatedly.
“I should get out of the way? Ye Haochuan, you need to understand who the master of this place is! You’re not welco here, hope you… leave!” Tang Zhen said coldly.
“Leave!” Ye Haochuan didn’t have ti to argue with Tang Zhen, imdiately pushing him aside and striding in.
Tang Zhen’s face was grim. He wanted to rush over and grab Ye Haochuan but found he couldn’t move at all.
Ye Haochuan didn’t want him to entangle further, so he had quietly immobilized him there.
Idiot, do you think you’ll gain favor just by going in? Naive!
Tang Zhen’s teeth itch with hatred, and he could only curse silently in his heart.
The passing of Old Master Kou didn’t alarm too many people. Inside the inner hall were only a few people, and these people were undoubtedly the late Old Master’s friends. At this mont, each of them had faces filled with grief and regret.
In front of Old Master Kou’s morial, Kou Jing knelt there like a wooden puppet, her eyes vacant, not noticing Ye Haochuan as he entered.
“Jingjing, I’m sorry, I… I ca too late!”
Seeing Kou Jing’s face looking pale and sickly, her eyes swollen with redness, Ye Haochuan felt a pang in his heart.
“What are you here for?”
Kou Jing’s tone was flat, like the still waters of a dead sea, without a ripple.
Ye Haochuan’s heart ached. At this mont, he vaguely felt as if Kou Jing’s heart… had already died!
He wished Kou Jing would hit him or scold him, which would at least make him feel a bit better. This cold sensation made Ye Haochuan feel very scared.
“I’ve co to see Grandpa,” Ye Haochuan said, looking at Kou Jing with a face full of reluctance.
“Oh!”
Kou Jing uttered a sound with no follow-up. Although knowing her heart had died, this single word pierced Ye Haochuan’s heart like a steel needle, the pain so intense it was hard to breathe.
He didn’t know how to comfort her, because Kou Jing had sealed off her heart, and nothing and no one could enter her world right now. She was like a living dead person.
Ye Haochuan felt deep pain in his heart. He tightly embraced Kou Jing, who neither resisted nor reciprocated, her eyes still vacant.
“Jingjing, seeing you like this makes feel so miserable, my heart aches, please, don’t be like this!” Ye Haochuan, holding her tightly, spoke with a trembling voice.
“Do you know? When I was very young, my parents left . It was Grandpa who raised single-handedly; he was my only family in this world…” Kou Jing’s words carried no emotion, as if she were reciting scripture unrelated to her.
“A few days ago, he suddenly got ill. I panicked. When I felt I couldn’t cure him, I thought of you imdiately. Your dical skills are so advanced, creating miracles ti and again. I believed, as long as you were there, my Grandpa would be safe…”
“But, I couldn’t reach you. I called more than a hundred tis, and not a single call went through.” At this point, Kou Jing suddenly let out a cold laugh, saying, “Now Grandpa is gone, yet you returned, haha, what perfect timing!”
Listening to this, Ye Haochuan’s heart felt as if it was being torn apart. Tears began to flow down his cheeks.
A woman who pinned all her hopes on the man she loved the most. Yet, in the end, she was only t with disappointnt.
He seed able to understand how each call made with anticipation gradually turned into disappointnt, and finally into despair…
“Jingjing, I’m sorry! I didn’t do it on purpose, I truly didn’t…”
“Do you know, in his last minute before passing, Grandpa was still talking about our wedding. He said his biggest regret was not being able to see us get married…”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…” Apart from apologizing, Ye Haochuan didn’t know what else to say.
“Leave! From now on, I won’t recognize you, Ye Haochuan!” Kou Jing’s tone remained calm, but to Ye Haochuan, it sounded like a thunderbolt.
“No, I’m not leaving, I want to stay with you…”
“Get out!” Kou Jing suddenly roared, her eyes filled with anger as she looked at Ye Haochuan.
“Ye Haochuan, I think you should leave for now. Jingjing is overwheld with grief. Let her be alone; surely she will understand you in ti!” The speaker was an elderly man with gray hair, seemingly a friend of Old Master Kou’s when he was alive.
Ye Haochuan sighed slightly. In this situation, anything he said would fall on deaf ears. He cupped his hands at the old man before turning to Kou Jing and saying, “Jingjing, I really have my reasons. Once you calm down, I’ll explain everything to you. I hope you believe !”
Ye Haochuan couldn’t discuss the Desolate Realm in public, lest they not only fail to believe him but also attract the Inspection Group for disclosing secrets.
Kou Jing did not respond, and Ye Haochuan didn’t press further, turning to leave the room.
