Chapter 336: Chapter 336 I Should Be With Him_1
Hai Zhiyuan laughed, “Grandpa’s health is fine now, he can be discharged from the hospital today.”
Hai Xiaotang was surprised when she realized that all of her grandfather’s belongings had already been packed.
Perfect timing, she could go home with her grandfather.
Hai Zhiyuan was aware of Hai Xiaotang and Dongfang Yu’s cohabitation.
Seeing Hai Xiaotang accompanied him home and planned to stay, he was puzzled, “Xiaotang, what happened between you and Ayu? What’s the current situation between the two of you?”
Hai Xiaotang didn’t hide the truth from him; she told it like it was.
Hai Zhiyuan was surprised; he hadn’t expected Dongfang Yu to make such concessions for Hai Xiaotang.
Not only did he stop blaming him for his past mistakes, but he also didn’t pressure Hai Xiaotang to be with him anymore.
The old man sighed, “Ayu is a good lad, it’s grandpa who wronged them. And I’ve caused you both so much trouble.”
Hai Xiaotang’s eyes flickered, she asked again, “Grandpa, what exactly happened back then? Did you really set them up?”
Hai Zhiyuan nodded, “Yes, it was grandpa who did it.”
Hai Xiaotang was stunned!
She couldn’t fool herself any longer into believing that her grandfather wasn’t the one who did it.
“Why?!” Hai Xiaotang asked sorrowfully, “Grandpa, why did you do that? I don’t believe that you would do such a thing. Is there something you’re not telling me?”
Hai Zhiyuan looked at her complexly for a moment, then said in deep tones, “No matter what the hidden reasons are, hurting them is still hurting them. That indeed was grandpa’s sin, and now that they’ve forgiven grandpa, it makes me even more uneasy!”
Hai Xiaotang’s eyes glittered, she too began to feel uneasy.
Her grandfather indeed owed them, but she didn’t want her grandfather to go to jail.
Dongfang Yu had also made such extreme sacrifices for her…
Yet, his family opposed his actions, which could potentially cause a rift between them.
Hai Xiaotang didn’t know how to handle this complex relationship tangled in a web of guilt and sacrifice.
It seemed like no matter what she did, it would be wrong!
“Grandpa, do you think I should be with Dongfang Yu?” Hai Xiaotang suddenly asked.
Hai Zhiyuan was taken aback.
Hai Xiaotang stared at a spot on the ground, murmuring, “Perhaps I should put everything aside and learn to accept him, right?”
The light in Hai Zhiyuan’s eyes flickered, he asked her, “Do you love him? Do you want to be with him?”
Hai Xiaotang shook her head, “I don’t know… But I do know that I should be with him.”
Hai Zhiyuan was perplexed, “You don’t even know if you love him, then how do you know you should be with him? Xiaotang, are you thinking this way because of grandpa?”
Hai Xiaotang kept shaking her head, “No. I might have thought so in the past, but it’s not necessary to be with him because of grandpa anymore.”
“Then why are you still saying this?”
“I don’t know. I only know that regardless of my feelings towards him right now, I should be with him!” Hai Xiaotang affirmed, “Because that’s the most genuine answer from the bottom of my heart!”
Hai Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment.
He probably understood Hai Xiaotang’s feelings now.
She and Dongfang Yu had been entangled for too long, their emotions could neither be cut off nor severed.
Now that Dongfang Yu was being so good to her, the bond between them would be even harder to break, and they still had a chance to make amends.
Unless they were separated by uncontrollable circumstances, they would always remain connected to each other.
But their being together wouldn’t necessarily bring happiness.
Their families were enemies, and Dongfang Yu’s family would never accept Hai Xiaotang.
Who knows, given time, whether Dongfang Yu’s feelings for her would fade.
