Because I Cannot Hurt You

Chapter 37: Jealousy and anguish

"What?"

Xinyi turned pale. "Yes. I-I cannot see him here. Where did he go without telling us?"

Everybody noticed the strain in the atmosphere. Mu Chuanli immediately approached them. "What\'s wrong?"

"Siying and that little girl, Chyou, they are not here," Xinyi was getting more and more panicked.

Zhiyuan said, "Calm down. We will get nowhere if we are scared." He looked at Mu Chuanli. "Please let us see the camera footage. We will know where they went after leaving the hall."

Xiaosi smiled. "It\'s alright. I already got it."

Mu Chuanli widened his eyes. "Huh? I haven\'t even called the security room yet."

"You are talking to the CEO of the best security company here. Hacking this much is nothing."

His mouth twitched. Xiaosi was capable but to show it at his cruise\'s security expense…

Caihong didn\'t show any emotion at her daughter\'s disappearance, but her expression slightly changed knowing that Siying was gone too.

Zhiyuan and Xinyi quickly surrounded him as Xiaosi showed the footage. As he focused on the children, they saw what happened when they went on stage.

Chyou seemed to be talking to her and suddenly, Siying started crying and ran out of the room. Chyou was confused for a few moments and then she followed after him.

Caihong narrowed her eyes. Xiaosi raised her brow and a glint flashed past by his eyes.

Zhiyuan and Xinyi were stunned.

"Zhiyuan. Why was he crying when she talked to him?"

Zhiyuan was in the same dilemma. But then something clicked him.

Chyou…

He suddenly shot a glance at Xiaosi. "Chyou." But then he stopped. He looked at Mu Chuanli and smiled. "Thank you. I think we are fine. Xiaosi and I will take up from here."

"But the kids...It\'s a serious thing. Are you sure?"

He nodded.

"Alright."

Zhiyuan looked at Xiaosi with a warning. "Let\'s head outside."

Xiaosi smiled. "Sure."

The four of them stepped out of the hall and Xinyi asked, "What happened, Zhiyuan?"

Instead of answering her, he shot a serious stare at Xiaosi. "Chyou is the same girl who pushed Siying in the school, right?"

Xinyi froze. She was so panicked by the children\'s disappearance that it didn\'t click her when she heard Chyou\'s name.

\'I don\'t remember her last name. But her first name was Chyou.\'

She glanced at Xiaosi and Caihong.

Their daughter…

"You are her father," Zhiyuan stated.

He silently stared for a moment at Caihong and lowered his gaze. "And you are her mother."

Caihong stiffened. A storm erupted in her chest at that mention, but she couldn\'t flip out in front of them. She didn\'t respond and looked away. But she was shocked to know that Chyou had hurt Siying.

\'You were smiling at that boy.\'

She remembered their conversation, and it came to place why she did that. Nevertheless, that just made her more frustrated at her.

Stupid girl and her pathetic jealousy!

Xiaosi chuckled and it confirmed Zhiyuan\'s suspicion. Now Zhiyuan understood why he never got a clue about Chyou or her family.

Usually, even a name was enough for him to dig up the whole family history with his influence. But his opponent was none other than Zhu Xiaosi - the CEO of the best and the largest security corporation. If he couldn\'t protect his own identity from leaking out, then how could he guarantee safety for others?

"Why didn\'t you come forward at that time?"

Xiaosi laughed out loud. "It would have been so boring to come so soon. My whole purpose of surprising you on this cruise trip would have gone to waste. How could I let my reunion plan get affected?"

Xinyi clenched her fists.

Zhiyuan had a lot of things to say to him, but this wasn\'t the time for that now.

He exhaled a deep breath.

"In which direction have they gone?"

For the children\'s sake, he had to co-operate with him.

Siying tearfully ran towards the corridor. His legs were shaking in fear and the only flashes of Chyou pushing him down invaded his mind that made him more and more afraid.

"Hey wait! Stop running around!" Chyou was running breathlessly behind him. Her neat bun that Xinyi had tied up was getting messed up, making her sad and angry at the same time.

Siying sniffled. "You are mean...I don\'t want to talk to you. Waaa...you are scary."

He panicked even more and to evade her, he randomly opened the nearest door to him and entered. He was just about to close it, but Chyou caught up to him.

"You! Don\'t be stupid! You are not supposed to leave without telling your Mama or Dada. That\'s what Dada tells me! They will get angry at you for running off!" She was panting as she spoke.

Siying paled. "But you are a scary girl! What if you pushed me again? Leave the door!"

Chyou bit her lip in anxiousness. His cheeks were completely wet with tears. Suddenly, her own eyes shone in tears as well.

"I am not scary...I-It\'s all your fault! Why do you talk to my Mama?"

"My Mama said it\'s not wrong to talk and have fun! If that is so then why you came with my Mama? D-Don\'t talk to my Mama too," Siying was continuously crying.

Chyou froze.

She didn\'t do anything different with Xinyi than what Siying was doing with Caihong.

Just spending some time and having fun.

Now, she felt more jealous.

Not only Caihong lovingly talked to him, but she also saw how Xinyi loved Siying too. It was like getting the love of two mothers where she didn\'t have any of it.

She didn\'t clearly understand those feelings and anguish, but it made her cry even more.

Siying didn\'t understand why she was crying when it was clear that he was getting bullied and threatened here. And that made him shed more tears because he had no clue.

Two kids were crying with nothing getting sorted out.

Suddenly, they heard someone yawn and a lazy voice came from the bed. The woman stretched her arms and rubbed her eyes.

"Yo kids. This is not your room. So noisy. What\'s with this \'My Mama\' and \'Your Mama\' huh? Go and fight somewhere else."

Siying was startled while Chyou watched the woman in shock.

"A-Aunt Shuang."
