779 Do something
Looking at the tears which were streaming from her eyes, his heart shattered all over again. The agony, pain and guilt intensified and almost doubled or may be tripled after seeing her like this. He had never seen her so helpless and weak which made him feel even more awful.
He could only see pain in her eyes and knowing that he was solely responsible for it, he cursed himself.
Inching closer, he raised his hand to wipe her tears away but before he could even touch her, she took a step backwards.
"Please don't," she muttered, which was enough for him to withdraw his hands and retrieve back. He knew that she didn't want to see him but he couldn't stop himself.
Tucking his hands into his pocket, he lowered his head. "I just wanted to drop and see you for once. It's been very tough without you lately so I needed to at least just see you. Forgive me for breaking into your door again, I will not do it again."
When she did not say anything, he continued, "I know that I have done many unreasonable and hurtful things, I respect your decision of not wanting to see me again and I deserve it but I couldn't take it anymore."
"I have screwed up everything really very bad Linyang and I know it. It kills me whenever I think that I lost you forever because of my mistakes, it kills me even more when I realize that I cannot hold you in my arms anything and I completely freak out and curse myself when I realize that I can no longer be with the woman I love."
Pausing for a while, he added, "I tried alot Linyang but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't stop thinking about it. Every single thing reminds me of you and I miss you alot. Like I know that you don't want to be associated with me in any way but I cannot stop loving you."
Clutching her hands in either side of her dress, she started sobbing harder. She wanted to tell him that she missed him alot too and there wasn't a single moment when she didn't think of him but she couldn't. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't say anything.
Walking towards her, he contemplated for a while before lifting his hands up but completely contrary to his expectations, she did not reject nor oppose his actions.
Slowly wiping her tears away, he smiled, "Look what I did, you are sad because of me."
The moment his fingers touched her cheek, she felt shivers down her spine, she had been yearning for his touch. She wanted to hug him, beat him and love him at the same time but she couldn't convince herself to do it. The guilt she had been feeling towards her family was stopping her and warning her conscience not to do anything outrageous.
How could she love someone who wanted to hurt her family? How could she even think of being with him?
Inching closer, she wiped his tears away with her thumb. Pressing her forehead against his, she muttered, "I love you Andrew but how do I trust you? How can you expect me to forget everything and act like nothing ever happened?"
Looking at him, she added, "You ruined everything and I hate you for that." Hitting his chest with her fist, she fumed, "I hate you for taking the man I love away from me, I hate you for making me feel like this, I hate you for—"
Wrapping his arms around his waist, she buried her on his chest and sobbed harder.
Closing his eyes and with tears streaming down his cheeks, he hugged her tightly. He knew that everything was over now and he would never get her back again. He also had no idea when he would get a chance to hold her again and feel her warmth so he didn't want to let this special moment slip from his hands. He wanted to embrace her as tightly as he could.
Standing by the door, Kathy covered her mouth and buried her face on Liang's chest.
Clutching onto Liang's shirt, she murmured, "Do something Liang, please."
Kissing the top of her head, he sighed and slowly nodded his head. "I will."

Hill mount hotel.
Kissing her forehead, Guang caressed her cheeks before slowly slipping out of the bed. He then picked up their clothes which were lying on the floor and placed them on the couch.
Picking up her bag, he took out his cell phone and turned it on. As he was checking his emails, he received a call from Singtan.
Nervously biting his nails, he took a deep breath before receiving the call.
"Why was your phone off Guang? And what happened to Qiang's phone? I have been trying to call you both for quite sometime now but—"
"The network isn't very good here uncle Singtan and don't worry about Qiang, she is right next to me," he quickly informed.
"Where are you both now? And I want to talk to her," Singtan declared.
Widening his eyes in shock, he quickly snapped, "Qiang is fast asleep so I don't think so we should disturb her, we are still driving so—"
"At this hour? Why didn't you check into a hotel? Go find a decent and quickly check in, it's not safe to drive so late."
