Zhen Xiu had no idea what to do next? She was unsure of many things. She had realized the importance of feelings after this event.There was no s.p.a.ce in her body and she had no news of her father. Moreover, that humongous tree was nowhere near her sight.
Everything was a mess.
Her heart was in pain. This was something that she has faced in her life despite being maltreated by that r.e.t.a.r.ded man who tried to kill her for his daughter.
He was a crazy man that couldn"t get his wife and daughter so he used her grandfather Zhen for his vanity and selfishness.
Even if his love was true towards those two vile women, he was not a good man who tried to steal her mother"s father and husband.
It clearly shows his self-centered feelings and he was the shame of the celestial deities.
Lu Jian entered the room and was met with Zhen Xiu"s crying face. The entire room was a big mess. In the center was his wife, crying her eyes out with a look of despair on her face.
He was at loss and didn"t know why she was behaving like this all of a sudden?
"Love, are you okay? Why are you on the floor? Get up! You are already weak." his cold voice filled with worry reached Zhen Xiu"s heart as she cried harder.
He was so good to her yet she had always played with him because of her narrowmindedness.
She was punis.h.i.+ng him for the things he did to her clone, his original wife that had loved him wholeheartedly but she herself was heartless and was judging him on his indifference.
Lu Jian thought that it was related to that little boy that he has found along with her outside the orphanage. She was unconscious on the ground and the three-year-old boy sat beside her.
He was terrified at the scene and had a thousand thoughts in his mind before he reached her; she had just fainted and there was nothing wrong with her body after the doctor confirmed this then only he was relaxed.
The matter about the little boy was left for his father. He didn"t need to worry about it as he was never close to his mother, to begin with, so having delusions about her being good to him someday was not in his mind anymore. He was happy that his mother has always remained indifferent and nonchalant about them, maybe it might help his father in moving on in his life.
The little boy was not at fault. He was just a child.
Lu Jian was soon relaxed and was hoping for Zhen Xiu to awake from her slumber to tell her about his decision and has not envisaged that she would behave like this after getting up.
He was startled to see her in this terrible condition. What was troubling her? He thought everything was alright since they got the little boy but come to think of it why was she unconscious in the first place?
Did something happen in between that he was not aware of?
"Love! Calm down."
He picked her up and placed her on the bed which was the only normal place in their damaged room and wiped her tears quickly. His heart was in pain to see the sad look in her eyes.
"What happened? Is something troubling you? Are you hurt? Tell me! I will do anything to make you feel good. Don"t keep it inside."
Zhen Xiu clung onto him as she cried harder. "Lu Jian, I am...my s.p.a.ce… it is...not there. I can"t con-tact--my mother. My father…" She hiccupped in between her words as if telling him everything was a great pain for her.
Lu Jian knew that she had a primordial s.p.a.ce in her body which was keeping her safe in the beginning but now that she has formed an entire body then why was she crying as her life has come to an end?
"Tell me! Slowly! Don"t cry! I am here." he wanted to know everything earlier to help with the situation later.
He was already feeling bad when he was not able to help her when she was suffering from her unstable soul.
"What about s.p.a.ce? Is it important to you? You should not be hurting because of that thing, surely, there is something else, tell me clearly." he coaxed her trying to know what exactly was bothering her. "What about your father?"
Zhen Xiu was still very depressed but the large shoulder of Lu Jian was giving her ample strength and support. She wanted to rely on him for the first time. She was willing to trust him. After all, all this care could not solely belong to her clone, right?
Now she was Zhen Xiu, his wife, she had the right to live this new life for her own rather than doing stuff for her clone. She was thankful for her clone"s choice for giving her this life back and deeply appreciated her love for Lu Jian but in all this revenge and trying to sort her mother in law she had forgotten herself.
Why she wanted a new life?
Why she wanted a family?
Why she wanted love?
She had done everything for the previous Zhen Xiu. Now she would do things for herself.
After clearing her thoughts out, she was collected and was able to tell Lu Jian about her doubts.
"I think my father might be hurt because of the sudden disappearance of the primordial s.p.a.ce from my body."
Lu Jian heard her and gave it a thought but it didn"t sound that serious to him.
"It might not be that dangerous. Did you try calling your mother? She had Feng Tian with her; they might be able to save your father and besides, we don"t actually know why this s.p.a.ce has disappeared from your body? So relax a bit and talk to your mother. She might have the answers for you."
Zhen Xiu knew that Lu Jian was right and without getting a confirmation from mom she shouldn"t worry like this but the sudden realization of feelings was not helping her either. She was tense that her stupid action would implicate her father.
The other thing was that she has a suspicion about why the primordial s.p.a.ce disappeared all of a sudden? It was all because of that tree.
That hateful tree!
