C11 Soullessness

The car stopped in front of the villa. Qin Ziyu carried the man out of the car and entered the bedroom. He carefully put Koo Zheng on the bed and used his hand to comb through her messy hair, "We're home, it's alright."

Lili suddenly grabbed his fingers, her blank eyes gradually becoming more focused. She stared at Qin Ziyu blankly as tears started to roll down her cheeks bit by bit.

"It's me!" I was the one who killed dad, it's all my … " Her body was shaking violently and her words came out haltingly.

Qin Ziyu reached out and picked her up, letting her lie on his chest.

"Just cry, just cry." Qin Ziyu gently caressed Koo Zheng's back. He was not good at coaxing, he just instinctively thought that this would probably make her feel more comfortable. "Koo Zheng, cry out."

This sentence seemed to ignite Koo Zheng's emotional valve. She let out a loud cry and gripped Qin Ziyu's shirt tightly with her fingers. "I'm not good. It's all my fault. I caused father's death!"

I killed Dad!

Tonight, Koo Zheng kept repeating the same line over and over again. Qin Ziyu held back his doubts and let her lean on him.

"Koo Zheng, it's all in the past now."

After an unknown amount of time, Koo Zheng's crying voice gradually quieted down, from sobs to sobs. In the end, it calmed down, but her fingers still tightly gripped Qin Ziyu's arm and refused to let go.

"Zheng." After a long time, he heard no response. Looking down, he realized that she had fallen asleep. Her eyes and nose were red, and she looked very pitiful.

He probably had too much accumulated emotions in his heart, so after venting them all out, he fell into deep sleep.

Qin Ziyu carefully laid her down on the bed, then pulled up the blanket to cover her. With a tight frown, he sat to the side and looked at her obviously haggard face.

He just looked at her silently, fingers out to wipe away the dry tears on her face, eyes heavy.

An idea came to his mind. He wanted to enclose her in his sight so that she wouldn't be as sad as she was today.

Koo Zheng slept soundly. She kept dreaming, dreaming that she was walking barefoot in a world of ice and snow. The heavy snow that fell from the sky made her feel hopeless.

She kept walking, kept walking, but she could not get out of this cold despair.

She fell into the snow, despairing that she would freeze to death this time.

She knew that this was just a dream, but she still could not help but feel despair. This coldness was so real.

"Zheng."

The warm voice was like a spring breeze caressing her face. At the same time, a large hand helped her up, pulling her into a warm and thick embrace, warming her with his body.

"I've always been there."

She could hear that this was Qin Ziyu's voice. It was completely different from his usual indifferent voice, so warm that it made people want to rely on it.

Lili looked up at his face, which was very close to hers. She reached out a finger to draw the outline of his facial features. "Qin Ziyu, is that you?"

Why did he have such a gentle expression? Such a compassionate gaze?

Qin Ziyu held onto the small hand that was caressing his face and snappily retorted, "Otherwise, who do you think it was?"

A voice filled with anger suddenly woke Koo Zheng up. Her chaotic vision gradually became clear. She stared blankly at Qin Ziyu and muttered, "I'm dreaming."

"Dreaming of me?" Qin Ziyu was suddenly in a good mood. Looking at Koo Zheng's blushing face, he knew he had guessed right. He said happily, "Sister Zhang has made some porridge for you. Get up and have a bite."

Koo Zheng propped herself up from the bed and leaned against her pillow. She glanced at the steaming Eight Treasures Porridge on the bedside table and shook her head. "I'm not hungry."

She felt full, full, unable to eat.

"I have to." Qin Ziyu scooped a spoonful in front of Koo Zheng. "Open your mouth."

Normally, Koo Zheng would have obeyed him obediently. However, after crying, she suddenly regained her courage and stubbornly turned her head to the side. "You eat."

"Are you sure I want to eat it?" Qin Ziyu smirked playfully as he sized up Koo Zheng, a glint flashing across his eyes.
