Because I Cannot Hurt You

Chapter 115 - Onto The Picnic!

Chapter 115 - Onto The Picnic!

But it was as if fate wasn't on his side at all. It wasn't just a day. Qin Fuhua started calling Xinyi everyday for some or other help. Whenever he tried to make plans with Xinyi, she would always have to accompany Qin Fuhua somewhere or the other.

The more Xinyi spent time with him, the more he felt that Qin Fuhua's presence was taking her away from him. He couldn't help but feel that maybe Xinyi was getting attracted to him again. Maybe unconsciously, she was wishing to spend time with him too. That's why she couldn't reject him.

Every time Zhiyuan would see Xinyi with Qin Fuhua or hear her talk to him, he felt a glaring pain in his chest surge inside as if eating him whole. His frustration for Qin Fuhua knew no bounds by that point. If he could, he would have really killed him for intruding on his marriage time and again.

Anger, agitation, sadness, helplessness, pain and even if he didn't understand... jealousy was rapidly taking root over him every passing day. It seemed like Xinyi enjoyed her time with him and that just poured salt on top of his already hurting wound.

It is said that first love is unforgettable and with how things went these past few days, he started to believe that maybe Xinyi wasn't happy with him anymore.

And just like that, the day arrived for the school picnic. Thankfully, Han Huizhong went on some personal trip, otherwise, he wouldn't have ever let Zhiyuan and Xinyi go together especially after the cruise trip.

Xinyi chuckled as she packed all the stuff and helped Siying get ready. "All ready!"

"Picnic! Picnic!" Siying was hopping all around the room, unable to hold his excitement.

She looked at Zhiyuan. "We are ready."

He smiled with all the will he could gather amidst the pain twisting his heart. "Yeah. Let's go."

The picnic spot was on the outskirts of Beijing in a hilly area. It was a tourist spot atop the hills that housed an important temple, dating back to the civilization of ancient China. There was a dense forest that stretched at the bottom of the hills with a beautiful waterfall that divided the forest into two parts.

"Siying! Chyou!"

Leina frantically waved her hand as she saw them coming. She shook off her Dada's hand and rushed towards them. Liang's mouth twitched. "Dear it's fine if you run towards Chyou. Don't run towards Siying! No running towards boys! No-No wait. Don't go near him!"

Ah Cy rolled her eyes at her husband's childish behavior. "Will you give it a rest?"

"Why does she always run off to Siying's side!?"

"At this point, you might very well accept him as your future son-in-law."

His gaze darkened. "Never! My princess will not marry anybody!"

Siying and Chyou sparkled. "Leina!"

The kids assembled as if they met after a long time. Xinyi chuckled as they got busy among themselves. She turned a little grim as she saw Xiaosi, smiling at her. "Good morning, Mrs. Han. What nice weather, isn't it?"

She stiffened a bit as she remembered their conversation in the elevator that day. Her heart thudded fast in her chest.

"You seem pale, Xinyi. Are you not feeling well?" Xiaosi mockingly asked.

She clenched her fingers into a fist.

Caihong pursed her lips and glared at him. Ever since that night, she felt a little different about him. She didn't stop hating him, but she couldn't pinpoint him at the same time.

"Enough, Xiaosi," she warned.

Zhiyuan coldly shot a glare at him and said, "It would be much better if you keep distance from us. Let the kids enjoy themselves. Adults don't need to mingle."

Xiaosi snickered.

Liang and Ah Cy glanced at each other and shook their heads. They prayed in unison that this picnic would get over without any issues.

But the kids had planned something that had high chances of causing a storm in this picnic.

Leina gleamed as she whispered, "Today it's the final level of our plan!"

Siying and Chyou obediently nodded.

"This is what happens in the movie! The hero and heroine meet first. Then they get cuddly at the start!"

Siying jumped up and down. "Mama and Dada got cuddly too! I slept with Aunt Zizi every night!"

Chyou brightened. "Mine too! Mama was taking care of Dada! She never did that before!"

Leina seriously nodded. "Yes. And then at the end, the hero and heroine get into twouble. Then they confess their love and get together! Grandma says that the cuddly cuddly at the start makes them confess the love in the end!"

Her beautiful orbs shone in excitement. "Hero says I love you. Heroine says I love you too. Then they get lovey-dovey!"

Siying hopefully asked, "Mama and Dada will not leave each other?"

"En! Happy ending! Uncle Zhiyuan, Aunty Xinyi, Uncle Xiaosi and Aunty Caihong! All will be happy!"

Siying and Chyou bloomed in joy. Their little, innocent hearts couldn't wait for everything to unfold.

Chyou asked, "But what will be the trouble?"

Leina said with pride. "In the movie, the heroine gets into some twouble and the hero saves him! Then they say I love you! So we have to do the same! We have to get Aunty Xinyi and Aunty Caihong into twouble. Uncle Zhiyuan and Uncle Xiaosi will run to help them!"

"How to do that?"

"Hahaha! I have a super good plan for that."

The teachers assembled all the students and their parents and announced. "Thank you so much for joining us in this picnic. Especially the parents. We know how busy you all are yet you took the time to be a part of this picnic. Spending time with your child is just as important as work. Without any further delay, let's head towards the temple that is the pride of Beijing. The children will learn a lot about our ancient history through this tour."

As they took a tour of the place, they enjoyed their time and everybody took a lot of selfies and pictures. The kid's excitement had no bounds. They curiously asked about the meaning of everything that they saw that made a strong impression in their minds. The teachers and guides were more than happy to explain the culture and history.

Xiaosi smiled and ruffled Chyou's head. "You stay with the group okay? I will be back in a minute."

"En!"

When he came back from attending his call, he saw Caihong and Ah Cy talking to each other. He shrugged and walked towards Chyou through the crowd. But then as he passed behind them, he heard them speaking,

Ah Cy suddenly said, "Oh yes! I completely forgot Caihong!" She facepalmed. "You had asked about that medicine right? Its name was XXX?"
