Chapter 89: Xia ‘Family’

Xia Jun heard his mother scream and tighten his hold of his little sister. He cried, why isn't he strong? Why can't he protect his family? He was the only man in the family!

many emotions crashed into his brain. Mixing up so much that he didn't know what he was feeling.

-----

Hui MengYu got out of the car and walk to the house where he hear noise from.

From a distance, he could see a zombie and a woman?

Hui MengYu hurried and shot out a water blade and killed the zombie.

He quickly ran up to that woman, she had a few scratches on her arm and face. And she was quite skinny. Hui MengYu could faintly see her ribs.

Zhang ChangHao saw that Hui MengYu ran out and follow him.

Staring at the woman, he took out a juice box and gave it to her.

"Here, this can help prevent the virus a bit more."

The woman sat up in shock as she took the juice box in her hands. Then she suddenly started to cry.

Xia Rong never thought that she could survive that attack. Her tears came down her face slowly, her dirty face made it more ugly.

Hui MengYu frowned.

Xia Rong saw that her savior frowning stop crying and wipe her face. She quickly open the juice and drank it.

When her mind calmed down she suddenly remembered her kids.

She try to stand up but her legs were shaking, she stood up but in a flash, she fall down on her back.

'Thud.'

Xia Rong hurtled her backbone but she wanted to get to her kids.

She sat up and crawled to the storage room where she had hidden her children.

She knock on the door and Xia Jun pushed it open a little. "Xiao Jun… it's mom, it's safe now, open the door!"

Xia Jun stared at her for a while and see that she isn't hinting anything to him so he open the door.

Xia Jun picked up Xia Qiu and was quickly stuffed into his mother's thin arms in a tight hug.

Xia Rong's eyes corner was red and she try to not cry. Xia Qiu who saw her mother cried out for a hug.

Hui MengYu stared at the family union and felt empty inside.

When he found his parents... Did they even care?

...ah... They did care, they were happy to have someone they can rely on for food. Happy that someone is doing all the work.

Sucking him dry for their gain.

Hui MengYu grabbed on his clothes. On the middle left side of his chest.

Although he thought he didn't care anymore...his heart still hurts. Why? Even though he has his grandpa....even though has his siblings...why did he care about his scumbag parents?

Why can't he have a loving parent? Even if they fight... Why can't they care for their children?

Hui MengYu couldn't find a reason they did so. Using him, tricking, and abandoning afterward. Why would they?

Even a tigress wouldn't kill their cubs for no reason.

Hui MengYu found… that even though he was seen to not care… deeply inside his heart… it was hurt. He had avoided remembering his parents. Hating them, wanting them to die. Despite that even so…. They still hurt him when they abandoned him. If he had never seen them and never known them, maybe he wouldn't feel this way but… nonetheless, he had felt the fake family warmth they gave him.

There was a scar inside his heart, that he didn't even know that was there.
