The Devil’s love

Placing his hand on Yichan's shoulder, Bojing added. "I think dad is right, you should wait for some time before telling Ning about it."

Thinking for a while, Yichan agreed, "Okay, I will wait for a while." Though he agreed on waiting for Ning's health sake, there was no way he would keep it away from her anymore. He knew the truth was huge and it would definitely break her but she deserved to know no matter how great the impact was. Keeping her in the dark would not only be unfair to her but it would also affect their relationship. A marriage is based on love, trust and understanding. If he started hiding things from her, how would everything work? He had always felt super guilty for not telling her about it as soon as he confirmed his suspicion. He had been holding himself back because he didn't want to give her incomplete information but now since everything was clear, there was no reason to hold back. ​​

…..

A week later.

Hospital

"Come on, you have to finish it," Yichan insisted.

Vigorously shaking her head, Ning sighed, "One more spoon of this bland thing and I will go nuts."

"Bland? How can you call this bland babe? This is your favourite soup," he frowned.

"It was my favourite until you started feeding me with it three time a day," she snapped.

"Come on, it's super healthy and also good for your health." Taking the bowl close to her, he added, "Finish this now, you still have some vegetables left."

Left with no other choice, she quietly finished the soup. "Dinner is supposed to be light Yi, you will make me fat this way."

"Do you have any idea how much blood you lost? Stop complaining and eat whatever I give you, he frowned.

Shoving the vegetables inside her mouth, she inquired, "Blood reminds me, I heard Mr Weilong was the one who—"

Cutting her off, he frowned, "Who told you?"

"I heard about it." Placing her hand on his, she asked, "Yi, is everything okay?"

Reluctantly nodding his head, he answered, "Everything is fine."

"And here it goes again." Helplessly shaking her head, she sighed, "When you know you can't lie to me, why do you even try?" When he did not say anything, she added, "If you don't talk to me about it, how is everything going to work?"

Caressing her head, he stated, "Finish your food first, we can talk about it after that."

Just then one of the guards entered the room and asked Yichan to step out for a bit.

Kissing her forehead, he instructed, "Finish your food, I'll be back soon." When she smiled and nodded her head, he stepped out for a bit.

…..

Outside.

"What is it?" Yichan inquired.

"Boss, Mr Weilong is here to see you." Pausing for a while, the guard added, "He is waiting for you outside the hospital."

"Hmmm, make sure no one enters the room without my permission except for Muchan." Glancing at the watch, Yichan added, "He is supposed to be here for the checkup."

After instructing the guards, he made his way downstairs where Weilong was waiting for him. Yichan could already guess what he wanted to talk about. Weilong had already tried calling him several times but Yichan kept ignoring his calls. He knew Weilong and the other people in his side didn't want him to tell Ning anything and keep the truth away from her but that is not something Yichan wanted to do. He was totally against it and had already made up his mind.

...

Outside the hospital.

When Weilong saw Yichan, he quickly got up and greeted him, "I thought you would not come, thank you for seeing me."

"Why are you here?" Yichan inquired.

Keeping quiet for a while, Weilong answered, "I wanted to talk to you about Ning, how is she now?"

"She is much better now, you don't have to worry about her," he answered.

"Of course, there is nothing to worry about when you are with her." Pausing for a while, Weilong added, "Regarding what we talked about a week ago—"

Cutting him off, Yichan calmly explained, "I have already made up my mind to tell her about it today after I am done talking to you. If you are here to tell me that I shouldn't do that it's pointless, you should leave."

"You don't understand Yichan, this truth will break her—"

"And what makes you think that keeping it away from her won't? You want me to hide the truth from her just because you want me to?" Narrowing his eyes, Yichan snapped, "Do you want me to keep it away from her because it will hurt her or because you are scared?"

When Weilog did not say anything, he added, "Wasn't this something you had expected when you gave her up? When you gave her up, you already knew that you had lost your daughter forever, right? Then why are you here trying to save a relationship which was never really that important to you? Stop acting like a victim Mr Weilong, maybe people like my father will sympathize with you but you are getting none from me."

"My wife is much stronger than you think she is, I am sure she will handle everything well and if it's too hard on her, I will always be there to support her. You should just go home and focus on the family you choose for yourself. After knowing the truth, if Ning decides to have any kind of relationship from you, I'll happily comply with it, until then please don't expect anything from me." Without waiting for his reply, Yichan walked away.

Left with no other choice, Weilong made his way towards his car. Maybe Yichan was right, maybe he didn't want him to tell Ning everything because he was too scared. For the last twenty-seven years, there hasn't been a single day when he did not regret giving up on his daughter. But what was the point regretting over something that cannot be changed or reversed no matter how hard he tries.
