The Devil’s love

"Almost a month before the due date, we had to admit Ziyi to the hospital. The doctor told us that there was some complication so she had to undergo a surgery. The baby was coming earlier than we had expected, we weren't ready for it and to top everything up, the doctor told us about the second baby. We were very shocked and scared but there was nothing we could do. We had no idea if the second baby was also a boy or maybe a girl, we wanted it to be boy to avoid any kind of complication but not everything happens according to our will."

Taking a deep breath, Weilong sighed, "We knew Antonio's men were still lurking around, we didn't wanna take any chances so we transferred Ziyi to a hospital in the outskirts of the country. She gave birth to my son Chen and my daughter Ning there." Wiping a tear from the corner of his eyes, he added, "I still remember the feeling when the nurse placed Ning in my arm, she was so beautiful and immediately snuggled in my arms. I was so delighted and a very proud father but I was also very well aware of the consequences that would come our way." ​​

Ziyi, who hadn't said a word until now wiped her tears with the back of her hand before adding to everything. "I didn't want our daughter to go through everything that I had. I didn't want her to suffer and live her life in fear, I didn't want Antonio to control her life. I wanted her to decide when she wanted to go out and not feel afraid when she did something. I wanted her to have her freedom—"

"So we took a very bold move and decided to give her away. We wanted to make sure that she stays safe and within our radar so I contacted dad. Initially I thought he wouldn't agree with our plan but he did, he took Ning with him," Weilong added.

Scrunching his brows, grandpa Yang stated, "To avoid suspicion, Luzin and his wife kept Ning as their daughter. I didn't want that because I don't trust that brat but Weilong had already made all the arrangements so I had no other choice but to follow their plan. But the moment I realized my granddaughter was being ill treated, I brought her with me and raised her on my own."

"We didn't want to give her up but—"

Cutting Weilong off, Yichan scoffed, "But you did, you knew very well that Yang Luzin wasn't someone you could trust even with a dog and yet you gave him your daughter." Pausing for a while, he snapped, "You tell me, do you think leaving your daughter in Yang Luzin's hands was a right decision?"

When Weilong did not say anything, Yichan mockingly scoffed, "You think by giving her up, Ning got the freedom and childhood she deserved? Let me tell you one thing, you made it even worse. Her childhood suffered under the hands of people who did not care for her while her real parents were busy happily raising their son. Ning doesn't like talking about her childhood not because she doesn't want to but because whenever she does, I know it brings back all the awful memories and sufferings."

"And please don't tell me you gave her up because you loved her, people who love never give up on their loved ones. Just like how my grandpa never gave up on me, grandpa Yang never gave up on Ning no matter how difficult it was to handle things and how Mr Jiang never gave up on his daughter even though his entire family was against it." Looking at Weilong and Yihong simultaneously, he added, "People who give up are cowards and selfish, such people are not welcomed in my wife's or my life."

Walking towards the door, he stated, "I know the truth is going to break Ning but she deserves to know."

"Yichan don't do that, you are just complicated things," Yihong explained.

Glaring at his father, Yichan snapped, "And who are you to tell me what am I supposed to do?"

"I am your father, son," he stated.

"You have lost the right to call yourself that years ago when you walked out of my family or maybe even you have some kind of reason behind your cowardness? Did Antonio ask you to leave your family, settle down in some other country, start a new family and not give a damn about any of us?" Yichan snapped.

When Yihong did not say anything, he mockingly chuckled, "I hated you for years, I hated you for leaving me alone when I needed you the most, when grandpa needed you the most but now I just pity you. I pity both of you for your cowardness and I am so glad Ning and I were not raised by people like you."

Without waiting for any one's reply, Yichan walked out of the room.

….

Ning's hospital room.

Kissing the back of her hand, Yichan sighed. Though he wanted to know what had exactly happened in the past and who was behind all the inappropriate activities that were happening but now he was feeling very uneasy. He couldn't stop thinking what would happen when he told her everything.

"Are you okay?" Roger asked.

"Hmm, I guess," he answered.

Sitting beside him, Roger sighed, "Don't worry, she will be alright. Ning has always been a fighter, she will get over it soon."

"All she has ever wanted was to live a happy life with her loved ones, is that too much to ask? And I hate the fact that I couldn't give her something so simple," Yichan ranted.

"Yichan, Ning will never blame you for anything that happened so you should also stop doing. Whatever happened in the past is neither her fault or yours and there no point dwelling in the past now. You both are together now and that is what matters," Roger stated.
