Chapter 135 - Overcoming
Two beautiful women was having tea while watching the five children playing in the garden.
The smallest child who was left running behind after the four children missed a step and fall down.
The child cried loudly.
The two women stand up in shock.
The woman with a lighter hair ran hurriedly to the child who falls down.
But she was a step slower than the child who was a head taller than the smallest one.
"Big brother..huhu." The small child clung to his brother who blows his scratches on his knees as he cried. He could not hear what his older brother was saying. But he knew it was comforting words.
Yes. His brother loves him.
Then a shadow loomed over him. A long silver hair fell on his head. Softly giving him warmth and comfort.
"Mommy~" the small child called out to the woman as he opened his arms to let her carry him.
The woman carried the small child and patted his back lovingly.
"Don't be such a crybaby. Mother is sick. Yet you let her carry you. If mother's health got worst it's your fault." A cold voice unbefitting of a child came out behind him.
The small child looked at his older brother.
When has his older brother spoken that way to him?
"I told you! To keep it a secret! It's your fault! Your fault!"
The small child watched in horror as his older brother got bigger in his eyes as he shouted words in a very cold manner.
"Mother died because of you. Do you have any sense of guilt?"
His brother's words were very cold that gave him no room to breathe.
"N-no! No! Mother is here! Mother is not dead! Mother is carrying me! Mom!"
The small child turned to look at his mom.
"What is it, Little Yin?" The beautiful face was half covered in blood. There was no life on her silver-blue eyes. Her smiled creepily to him.
The small child was shocked beyond words. He then felt cold blood on his chest.
It was his mom's blood that keeps coming out from her mouth.
"Cough!"
The small child watch in horror as he saw his mother coughing up blood. It bathed him until it becomes a river of blood.
The small child shivered.
There was no mom. No older brother.
He turned around to run away. To run away from this place. But then he tripped on something and fall.
It was a face. It was his nanny's horrified face.
'Kyaaahh' the child screamed. But no voice came out.
Then he saw Death coming to him. A demon in a black suit.
"Screamed one more time and you will be next."
These words don't have a sound. But the child seems to hear it at the bottom of his heart. He was shaken to the core.
"You should die. You are weak, to begin with. What's the point of living?"
The child just stared at the man who was covered in blood.
Horrified.
Terrified.
He could not move. He could not speak. He could not breathe.
"You should die. It's your fault anyway." A cold childish voice sounded.
"You should die. By dying, you would not suffer anymore. Isn't that great?" The devil's voice whispered at him.
"You should die."
"You should die. That's your fate, to begin with."
"You should die. You cannot change what happened."
"You should die. You're just a burden."
"Come, child, die with me."
The child was drowning in the sea of voices.
"I should have died." The child was standing at the rooftop. It was dark. The sky was covered in red.
The child looked down. It was the sea of blood. He could hear his mother whispering to him to come with him. To jump and find her.
So the child did.
He jumped.
But he did not drown to the sea of blood.
A soft, warm hands hold his hands tight.
"Don't you have any more reasons to live?" It was a cool voice that he was very familiar with.
"I-" The child's voice was that of a teenager.
"I want to wake up."
Lu Yin Ze abruptly opened his eyes. He sits up straight as the cold sweat runs down to his beautiful face.
'It was a dream. No. A nightmare.'
He got off the bed. And drink a cup of water at the top of his bedside table and drank his pills.
He was having nightmare in these past few days.
After his birthday, he did not allow anyone to visit him. Even Xiong Zhi and Song Xuantin came he did not meet them. He was not in the state that he could meet them. He was ashamed. Ashamed of himself. He wanted to be drunk in this state and hide in the world.
He don't want to meet anyone. He dont wants to face reality.
Then a scene where he promised 'that' man that he would destroy them would flash in his eyes and he would be ashamed of himself again.
How could he even start?
When he himself could not overcome his mere self? His own nightmare?
It was just big talk.
An empty talk.
How shameful.
How pitiful.
Lu Yin Ze laughed helplessly to himself.
'Dag!Dag!Dag!Dag!Dag!'
Lu Yin Ze turned towards his door. His room was soundproof. So how come this loud noise could echo in his room?
"..#$-$-.~~~~~ehh!!"
There's noise outside.
'What's happening?'
He walked towards the door.
"~~~~~~Ze!!!"
Lu Yin Ze put his ear to the door. Ever since his birthday, he did not step out of the room. And for now, he doesn't have a plan to.
"LU YIN ZE!! IF YOU CAN HEAR ME KEEP YOUR DISTANCE AT THE DOOR!! WE WILL BOMB YOUR DOOR!! IN THREE SECONDS! 3!"
Lu Yin Ze's gloomy face was replaced by shock. That tone of voice was Song Xuantin! How come she was at his house!
"2!"
No, the problem was what is she doing?
But even with a shocked face and confused mind Lu Yin Ze run away from the door.
"1!"
'BOOM!!!'
A loud sound of an explosion came from the second young master Lu's wing.
Dust flew everywhere as the door became ashes.
Song Xuantin was leading her squad with a megaphone.
"LU YIN ZE! I KNOW YOUR ROOM IS BIG! Wow, your room is really good. SO COME OUT NOW! DON'T PLAY HIDE AND SEEK WITH US!"
"Xuantin." Xiong Zhi who came with Song Xuantin was looking at the ground.
"YES."
"Put down your megaphone. Lu Yin Ze is on the ground." Xiong Zhi pointed at Lu Yin Ze who was struck speechless by their magnificent entrance.
Lu Yin Ze was seating on the ground because of the impact. He was struck dumb.
'What happened?'
"D-did just my d-door p-pull-ver-rized?" Lu Yin Ze's voice shook as he stared at the powder and at the piece of wood at his lap.
If he did not run too fast his fate must be the same as that door.
"YES. THANKS TO MY L-, THANKS TO OUR DEAR CLASSMATE GU ZHEN WE CAN ENTER YOUR ROOM." Song Xuantin proudly said as she pointed towards her left. Gu Zhen came along too.
Lu Yin Ze's face was hard to describe. His beautiful face that was always calm was nowhere. It was twisted to something that says 'Are you all crazy?' to 'Are you human?' and ' I'm seeing an alien.'
"WELL, WE CAME HERE BECAUSE WE ARE WORRIED. IT HAS BEEN A WEEK AND YOU SKIP CLASSES. YOU HAVEN'T COMING OUT OF YOUR R-."
"Can you stop using the megaphone. Your voice is enough to hurt my eardrum. Now you are making my eardrum explodes." Lu Yin Ze said as he stands up and dusted off his clothes. Then he turned his back towards them. He really did not want to meet anyone.
"Alright. Sorry for intruding. But we skip classes today for you." Song Xuantin put down the megaphone.
"What? You skip classes?!" Lu Yin Ze turned to them. He easily got guilty.
"Supposedly, if today is not Saturday." Song Xuantin said with a joking smile.
Lu Yin Ze's face once more contorted to 'Don't [email?protected] with me'.
Since he doesn't step out of the room and he doesn't care what was happening around him, he was not aware of what day today is. Or how long he has been locked up to his room. With the dark and thick curtain dr.a.p.ed all over the room, it was hard to tell if it's midnight or morning.
"Are you still sulking?" Xiong Zhi came forward. Since Song Xuantin's mouth was not helpful at this moment.
Lu Yin Ze turned his back towards them again. He was really ashamed to meet anyone. He just wanted to sulk.
"It's alright. I wanted to tell you to take your time. But you already take your time. If you take some more time I wonder what you will become. Hang out with us instead." This was the practiced words that Song Xuantin should say. But the two, Xiong Zhi and Gu Zhen already memorized it after Song Xuantin continuously messed up the words.
"I..."
The three waited for Lu Yin Ze's words after 'I'. But after a while, there are no words.
