Xin Mei felt as if the world was revolving around her eyes. She could not believe what she was hearing. She could feel floor slipping out from under her feet. She could feel her heart racing fast. She could feel her heart thumping hard in her ears.

"I think, I heard you wrong."

"No, you heard me right." Su Yuchen yelled and fell on the ground in agony. He squeezed tight on his thighs and shook his head. "I am a murderer. I murdered my very own stepmother, Jiang Biyu. Now hate me Mei, hate me because I am a murderer."

Body of Su Yuchen started to shook violently as he finally spoke out the secret which was killing him for such a long time. In his anger, he had killed his stepmother.

Xin Mei felt as if someone was slicing her heart when she looked at the condition of Su Yuchen. He was sobbing loudly and his body was shaking. She slumped down on the floor, at his level and wrapped her arms around him, hugging him tightly.

"No, you cannot be a murderer. And a big no, I am never leaving you. Murderer or not, I am never leaving you."

Su Yuchen started to sob loud in the arm of Xin Mei. Loud wails filled in the hall.

"I am sorry Mei. I hide this fact from you that I am a murderer." He sobbed and gulped the next second. "I was afraid that you will…will. Leave me…sob…I…am worse man…I…. I…. I…"

Su Yuchen sobbed loudly. His body shook heavily in the arms of Xin Mei. "Shh, you don't need to say anything to me. Calm down, calm down."

Xin Mei felt hell confused. How came Su Yuchen became a murderer? Never in her wildest dream had she expected that Su Yuchen had hidden a secret like this! This was what always killing him, keeping him closed off.

Once Su Yuchen calmed down, once his sobbing was under his control, he started to speak, "Let me tell you everything today, but promise me that you will never leave me."

"You don't need to tell me anything if you feel pain. I didn't want to know anything."

Xin Mei shook her head negatively. She did not want to hear anything. She did not want to see the pain on the face of Su Yuchen while remembering his past.

"No, let me tell you everything." He released a long, deep, shaky breath. "Now promise me."

"I promise you, Chen. I will never leave you. How can Mei leave her Chen?" she smiled and placed her head on his chest.

Lips of Su Yuchen tilted up in a small smile and he took a sigh of relief. He again took a deep breath, preparing himself to go down in the dark lanes of his past.

"I…my mother…my step mother…I…I…" Su Yuchen stuttered not knowing from where to start his story.

"You can start from the beginning. Who was your biological mother? How did she die?" Xin Mei smiled to him and placed her hand on his lap. Su Yuchen wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close. He placed his head on her shoulder.

"My mother was the best mother in this world." Su Yuchen sighed and looked above at the ceiling, looking lost. "She was my everything, my mother, my father, my everything."

What Su Yuchen told to Xin Mei was quite familiar to what he had told to her about his mother after the release of Revenge, but Xin Mei did not point out the same. She was his silent audience.

Su Yuchen told her about his mother, their relationship before telling her about the death of his mother.

"I still remember the night when my mother died." Su Yuchen shuddered under the arms of Xin Mei. "I was four when I saw my mother getting murdered, murdered by the so called lady who called herself my stepmother."
