Chapter 702 Wronged You  "Little prince, go back to your room and sleep," said Grandfather Xiang said to Hyson as they came back home. 

"Opa, I'm fine," said Hyson but he looked like a zombie right now. Even though he had slept last night, he was really tired now. It wasn't easy being an actor. Especially when you're not born with the talent of being an actor and have to put extra work into it.

"Then lie down on the sofa," suggested Grandfather Xiang. "Rest for a while. I'll ask the kitchen staff to prepare lunch for you."

Hyson perked up a little but couldn't muster up a lot of energy as he said, "Okay! I'll be waiting to eat delicious food."

As Xiang Hulin looked at their interaction, he had one thought in his mind, 'One is willing to be spoiled, the other is willing to spoil.' However, he didn't dare speak up right now. He felt like if he said a word wrong, his father might throw him out of the house again.

Seeing him just standing there looking at everything so curiously, Hyson couldn't help smiling to himself. Why was this General a little silly?

He shouldn't say that about his best friend's father though. Because it was this silly father's genes that gave birth to a genius like Raelle. Actually, after meeting Xiang Hulin, he was a little bit curious to meet Raelle's mother as well.

He has his eyes closed as he said, "General, don't just stand there. Take a sit. Opa didn't punish you to stand, right?"

"Mhmm..." Grandfather Xiang made a sound of agreement. "I didn't."

"Oh," Xiang Hulin instantly sat down and looked like a good and obedient child right now.

Hyson suddenly stood up and said, "Opa, I'm gonna go and see my mum. You should talk to General. Don't be so quiet."

Grandfather Xiang nodded his head and Hyson left them alone.

"Father..." Xiang Hulin called out tentatively. "I'm sorry. I couldn't protect her again."

Grandfather Xiang sighed at that, "My granddaughter doesn't blame anyone. Whom am I to blame you?"

"If you think I'm the back luck in her life, I promise I'll never appear before her or around again," said Xiang Hulin.

"As a military General, is it okay for you to be so superstitious?" asked Grandfather Xiang. "I didn't raise you like that. Don't speak such nonsense before my Yenay."

"Yes," said Xiang Hulin obediently.

"How have you been?" asked Grandfather Xiang.

Xiang Hulin smiled bitterly, "I am fine."

"Did you go to your mother's grave?" 

Xiang Hulin lowered his head, "I know you asked me not to go there but... I can't stop myself. So, every time I passed by our hometown, I went to visit her and ask for her forgiveness." His voice lowered as he continued, "But I don't think she forgave me even after all these years. She doesn't even come into my dreams."

"She never came in my dreams as well," told Grandfather Xiang. "She must be too happy in the other world to even remember who we are."

Xiang Hulin didn't know how he should react to those words. Was it alright for his father to speak like that about his own wife?

"Do you know why I asked to meet you?"

Xiang Hulin shook his head, "I don't."

"It's because my Yenay said I've wronged you," said Grandfather Xiang leaving Xiang Hulin stunned. "She said to keep a promise with my dead wife, I am torturing my only son who is still alive and living in agony." He looked at Xiang Hulin's expressions and asked, "Why? Surprised?"

Xiang Hulin nodded in response, "I didn't think she'd be the reason."

"No, only she could be the reason," remarked Grandfather Xiang heavily. "Her words are bitter but she always speaks facts. Facts you can't deny. She had a habit of leaving everyone speechless. But she never does it intentionally. She is just my little precious who is too good for this world. I wonder why Heaven is still hurting her so much."

A tear leaked down the corner of his eye as he said those words. He couldn't describe how he was feeling right now. Even if he looked at his granddaughter and she seemed fine, he just couldn't stop what he was feeling. How could he? She looked the same when she was kidnapped and had wounds all over her body. She looked the same even when she fell down the horse and broke her leg. She always just looked the same. She had always been hurting but she looked the same! Always the same! 

And that was the most painful thing to him. It was too painful! Whenever he looked at her, he couldn't help wishing...

He wanted his precious granddaughter to be able to express herself freely. He wanted her to laugh and giggle like other girls. He wanted to see her cry if she was in pain and laugh if she was happy. 

But those were all just his wishful thinking. He might never see all that. He didn't even know if he had so much time to wait and see any change. Who knew when he'd be gone? 

Xiang Hulin kneeled down before his father and placed his hand on his knee as he said, "Father..." He didn't know how to comfort. He was at a loss for words as well. "Raelle wouldn't like to see tears in your eyes." That was the only thought that came to his mind.

Grandfather Xiang wiped his tear and nodded, "I know. That's why I didn't dare shed a tear in front of her. I know my granddaughter best. She never liked seeing tears in the eyes of the people she called family."

Xiang Hulin suddenly thought that he was definitely not part of that family. He knew it clearly that her calling him father and him being her family were two very separate things. It couldn't be helped. She was very particular about people she was willing to call family.
