Chapter 108 - Only hope of light and happiness was lost.
When she heard Wen Sying defending Li Xue, Liu Hua\'s lips twitched. "Sying, you better not defend her for her past actions. She got herself into that dirty scandal, five years ago. What was she asking us to do in such a situation? To support her in that unscrupulous deeds. Sleeping with a married man, who was even older than her father … sorry, but I can\'t accept that. It was good that she was punished for her deeds or else I would have strangled her myself. Though I have lost my other daughter because of it, I still do not feel an ounce of regret. I am happy I found you. You are no less than my Yenay". She said, her eyes welling up at the mention of her deceased daughter.
Hearing such praises for herself, Wen Sying was overjoyed. Keeping her joys in her heart she said, "Fine! Aunty, don\'t mention it anymore.? I can\'t see your tears. Let\'s go now. We have to visit the doctor too. You must be in pain with that hands of yours", she said as her eyes went to look back at her swollen hands.
Liu Hua nodded and turned to look back at her husband, eying him to not be a ridiculous one at the scene. "Uncle Li, please don\'t be mad at Aunt or Li Xue. They are not wrong, maybe this whole situation is wrong. Please give her some time, I will make sure that she comes and apologize to you two for her behaviour today. Trust me, your daughter. I won\'t fail you", she said being all concerned and serious with her expressions.
Looking at her like this, even a devil would not be able to point his finger at her real intentions. Li Sheng looked at her and nodded. "Sying, it was my fault. I should not have blamed you for all these. But you know what were my intentions? I would never want to hurt you with my words or it will be an offence in the honour of your Aunt. And you know I can\'t dare to do that."
With those words, all three broke into laughter; loud enough to let the people around know about their happiness. Soon the trio walked away happily, though they felt disappointment in their heart, but there was nothing they could do about it.
While Wen Sying\'s intended to let Li Xue know how her parents have been snatched by her; Father Li and Mother Li have also come with their own selfish motive. Last day when they were being informed of the return of their abandoned daughter, they had made clear that they will have no relation with her.
But after knowing her current relation with Feng Internationals and Director Qi Shuai, Li Sheng just can\'t give away his greed of opportunities that could bring him lots and lots of profits.
He had never thought that even after her ignominious downfall, she would still have the face and talents to create such an influential connection all by herself. Sigh! this time it will be really tough for him to take her advantage.
At the same time inside the house, Li Xue was feeling miserable. Slumped down on the cold floor, only tears of guilt were streaming down her cheeks. Her heart was suffocating inside, not giving her any breath to breathe out. The more time passed, the more paled her complexion became.
"No, I did not kill my sister. I can never kill her. How can I do that to her when she was the only one who genuinely cared for me?" she mumbled in between her sobs.
"Yenay, please forgive your sister. I never knew that my career would become so dangerous for you and your life. If I have known, then I wouldn\'t have ever dared to choose that. Please forgive me. Come back to me. I still feel empty without you", her state got more and more disconsolate as the memories from her past started flashing in front of her eyes all again.
Five years ago when she was stricken with the disastrous scandal, it has been only her young sister, Yenay that has stood beside her, believing her that she was not the person at fault. She wasn\'t too old, just a mere 16 years old bubbly teenager. She was too young to provide any help to her yet she never hesitated to show her support.
When everyone named her with several names like home – wrecker, sl*t, immoral etc.; Li Yenay never hesitated to curse them, showing her support to her beloved sister. And maybe that was her fault. Her unconditional, selfless love for her sister was her fault.
Li Xue asked her to not be so outrageous in public, especially when the matters were related to her and the scandal. But she never listened to her. She always denied her request saying, "Jiejie, don\'t ask me to restrain myself because I really won\'t be able to control my nerves clenching, seeing them call you with those names. How can they be so idiot and insensitive? They have never seen you or known you closely, how can they raise their fingers at your character. Sorry but I can\'t give you any promise about which I, myself am not sure of"
Her words of credence often made her feel lucky and full in her empty world of friends, family and relatives. Even with none believing her, Yenay\'s alone belief was enough to provide courage and moral support to her.
But she never knew that this world will become so heartless to her that they will not hesitate in snatching away the only support she had in the millions of crowds. While Li Yenay was supporting her against the crowd, the people did not vacillate in mercilessly ending her life. They ended her like she was some beast, who has run out of the jungle and have become a hindrance to their lives. Using the power of more than ten, they brought an end to a young girl\'s life who has yet to live to her fullest.
When Li Xue ran for her rescue, she was too late. Her soul has already set free to take its eternal journey. Li Xue\'s only hope of light and happiness was lost. She was lost. Her courage to prove herself right in front of the world lost its meaning.
That day she has not only lost her young sister but also all her reasons to live …
When all those memories flashes stopped, Li Xue felt her vision getting blurred, her eyes dried up from all the tears. It felt like there was no drop left to be shed anymore. Her breath getting heavier, making her unable to catch the normality.
Her frail body felt shivering with cold; like she was suddenly struck with some cold snowfall. "Ahh!" she grasped her chest when she felt agonizing pain inside. One glance at her and anyone would say that she was nearing her death.? "Ahh … my meds …" she tried to make herself realize what she needed at this moment as she tried to get herself up from the ground. But before she could even stabilize her footing, she lost her balance and fell hard on the ground again.
