Chapter 406: Let’s forget about it.

Han Zihao didn’t say anything for a while and simply took her hand in his hands and rubbed the back of her hand gently with his thumb, comforting her with his warmth.

After a few minutes of silence, he took a deep breath and asked with much hesitance in his voice, ” If you don’t want to do anything about it, it’s fine. However, there is something else that I want to know about as well. I was waiting for you to talk about it someday but I think it will be better if I ask about it right now.”

Xu Nuan looked at him in confusion when she heard him say, ” Jiang Yue, I want to know more about your mushroom allergy. I am aware that you’re allergic to mushrooms but it wasn’t this serious when you were young. Did something happened when you moved out of Xie city?” He asked worriedly.

” Also....is there a reason why you don’t eat with the people you meet for the first time? I have never seen you eating anything at a party or any banquet. You always come back hungry from such events.” He asked, revealing all the questions that were bothering him for so long.

He knows how sensitive she is about her mushroom allergy and her face goes pale as soon as she sees a mushroom in a dish, forgets about eating it. Even Lin Hui seems to be aware about the reason behind it, only he doesn’t know anything about her.

Her extreme reactions toward mushrooms doesn’t look like a normal allergy. Not only that, he has seen her avoiding eating with strangers. Whenever she goes to a gathering, she either starves herself to death or only consumes the drinks which makes things worse for her.

Even when she went to the anniversary banquet of Xu Nuan’s Grandparents, she fainted due to drinking too much alcohol on an empty stomach. She didn’t even touch the food and only gulped down the drinks which made her condition go worse.

.....

What is bothering her so much, that she cannot even stand to see a mushroom in a dish and is afraid to eat with strangers to the point that she prefers getting sick than eating anything.

As soon as Xu Nuan heard the question, her expressions turned solemn. It was one of those questions that she wanted to push away as much as possible.

Xu Nuan, who was caught off guard by his sudden question, bit her lower lip and took the support of his hand before sitting on the bed next to him and rested her back against the headboard.

‘So the day has finally come.’ She smiled bitterly, thinking about the events that she was trying to forget and avoid but there is no way she can get away from them.

She was aware that she would have to tell him about this thing someday but wasn’t expecting it to be so soon.

She never told this story to anyone, other than Lin Hui because he also had similar experiences in his childhood as well, which made them sympathize with each other even more.

This is what made them become close friends and after that, it will be the first time she will be telling someone about this dark past of hers.

Seeing her fidgeting her fingers nervously and pondering his question, Han Zihao pulled her closer and rubbed her arms, warming them and said in a low-assuring voice, ” Don’t think that you have to tell me about it. If you’re not comfortable speaking about this matter, you don’t have to. Just because we’re in a relationship, you don’t have to share everyth-”

Xu Nuan shook her head and added, ” It’s okay. It’s not like I can avoid talking about this for my whole life. If I don’t stand against my fears now, then I will always be trapped in the dark memories of the past.” She cut him off and smiled at him, showing him that she is alright.

If she doesn’t harden her heart and face her fears confidently, then she will be trapped in those painful memories forever.

Just like Xu Nuan never dared to speak or do anything against Xingren who always tortured her, in a way, she was also doing the same without facing her fears.

She has already died once and doesn’t want to waste this precious chance to live by being a coward once again.

Seeing her making up her mind, he smiled at her proudly and waited for her to tell him the story that she was hiding in the deepest corner of her heart, that he didn’t know about her.

For some reason, he was sure that he would find a clue regarding what was written in that letter that was delivered to his office as well. Even if she is not interested to find out what happened to her that night, he will not let it pass such kind of thing easily.

” So, was it all because of your cousin and not because of your mushroom allergy?” Han Zihao was in disbelief and disgusted.

How cruel can one be to do something like that to their family? Even if that girl didn’t like Jiang Yue, does she really have to go that far to put insects in her food?

Han Liang and he are also cousins, but the bonding that they have is stronger than any siblings. Then how can.... someone- Hah!

He was speechless!!

How can Jiang Yue’s cousin do this to her and that too when they were in school? He was appalled just upon hearing the reason behind her mushroom allergy.

He was aware that she had a mushroom allergy from a young age but it wasn’t that serious for her to react like this.

It was not just a mushroom allergy but she was traumatized by the incident when Jiang Ru’s friends put insects in Jiang Yue’s food and Jiang Ru did nothing and simply watched her cousin be bullied by her friends.

In the end, it was not only because of mushrooms but because of the insects that she almost ate, thinking them as mushrooms. The mushrooms remind her of that disgusting incident which ruined her whole life.

‘DISGUSTING’

Not only that, Jiang Yue was even more shaken how she lost her parents in an accident because they were coming to pick her up from the school upon hearing that she fainted and needed to be taken to the hospital.

Because of those girls’ so-called prank, Jiang Yue lost her parents and couldn’t even get to say her final goodbyes to them. The incident that might be just a joke to someone, can become a lifetime scar for the other person.

How sad she must be to face everything herself in that young age and not only that, she had to live in the same house with that bully girl and call her sister?

That’s why rather than joining Grandfather in the business, she decided to follow a different path and left the house to pursue her dreams and do something on her own.

‘It must be hard on her.’ He thought.

Han Zihao took a deep breath as he tried to control his raging anger and glanced at her and saw her eyes that were brimming with tears and the way she was trying to control her emotions.

Her hands were still trembling and it was at this moment that he realized that she isn’t as strong as she shows to the world.

Only if he had stopped her from leaving the city that time, then she might have not gone through all of this. If he can go back in time, he will do anything to not allow her to leave his side.

The Jiang Yue that he had met when he was young was a bright girl who hadn’t seen any difficulties in her life. And he hoped that she would never get to see the ugly side of this world and can retain her innocence forever like this.

However, who had thought that as soon as she left his side, the girl will have to go through all of this alone and fight with this monstrous world on her own.

Xu Nuan sniffled and wiped away the tears from her eyes and cleared her throat before speaking, ” It’s alright. Everything is in the past now. You don’t need to think about it.”

Han Zihao pursed his lips and didn’t say anything. He could see that she was trying to forget everything and move on in her life.

Rather than comforting her with his words, he held her face in his palms and gave her a comforting kiss on the lips and wiped the tears away from her eyes with his thumb and said, ” Yes. Let’s forget about it.”.

He also wants her to move on and not get involved with her dark past. This will be only the right thing for her to do at the moment.
