His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Chapter 630 - EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMAL

Hu Lei and Zhong Feng turned from the window and looked at Shun with surprise. They looked at each other before Zhong Feng walked back to his original seat. He took a leisurely sip of his tea before he looked at Shun again. 

Hu Lei remained at the window, but she did not look through the window at Wang Che anymore. It seemed like he was still uncertain about his decision. 

"Are you sure about your decision?" Zhong Feng asked. 

Shun pulled on the sleeves of his light sweater, and his hands clenched a little before he let go. He relaxed his hands, but his face still looked a little uncomfortable. 

"I am not doing anything in Supreme City. I cannot keep staying here with you guys forever." Shun said after a long moment of hesitation. 

"Hey! No one is chasing you away. We can afford to feed you." Hu Lei chimed in. 

Zhong Feng looked at her flatly before turning back to Shun. "You should not be in a rush if you are not ready. Are you sure that you will be comfortable being back with your family?" 

"My Eldest Brother has promised that they will not interfere with my life. I know they can be overbearing, but at least, their intentions are good. If I get uncomfortable, I can just move to another city. It is not a bad thing for me to go back home." Shun chuckled lightly. 

The entire scene was a little sad because Shun seemed to be holding back tears. 

"Shun, if you feel like you have to go back to Japan because of Wang Che, remember that you still have us." Hu Lei spoke up with a serious expression on her face. "We will not allow anyone to bully you. If you want me to beat him up, just say the word." 

Zhong Feng sighed seeing his wife lift a small but dangerous fist. "What Xiao Lei is trying to say is that Supreme City is your home too. And you are not alone. If you do not want to leave, you do not have to leave." 

Zhong Feng wanted to say that it would not be a problem for him to force Wang Che to give him back everything, but he thought this was better left unsaid. Shun was a gentle soul and would not want them to move against Wang Che, despite the current situation. 

But that did not mean that he and Hu Lei would not do what was necessary. 

"That is the thing," Shun said. "I have thought about it, and I think I want to go back to Japan. Before you ask, this is not about my memory loss or Wang Che. I just have a feeling that it is time. I think I will be happier at home." 

Zhong Feng and Hu Lei were silent. 

"I will go with you." 

The speaker was Wang Che who was standing at the threshold of the living room door. He looked tense and keyed up like he was on edge. Nut more than anything he was anxious as he looked at Shun. 

Shun's eyes widened in surprise as he looked at Wang Che before he lowered his head. His hands once again clenched into fists as he composed himself. 

For the entire period that he was in Azure Woods, he hoped that Wang Che would show up. He wanted to know that Wang Che wanted to be with him rather than using him as an emotional anchor. But it had taken a couple of weeks for him to show up. 

What did it mean? Did Wang Che take that long to realise that he was important? Or was he feeling a little unsettled and wanted him to be his anchor once again?

Shun looked up with pursed lips. 

"That will not be necessary." He said coldly. "I will not be your anchor anymore." 

"What?" Wang Che was confused by the metaphor. 

Shun realised that he had spoken his thoughts directly. "It does not matter. What needed to be said has already been said. I am going back to Mountain Ridge to stay with my family. I will have my family send lawyers to deal with the legal stuff." 

Wang Che felt a chill in his heart. Just as he feared, it was too later. He had lost Shun because he had been too stupid, too arrogant and too repressed. 

At that moment, everything seemed to freeze. It was like time had stopped and encased him in ice to watch the instance he lost everything. 

"Shun…" He called out. 

His voice sounded weird in his own ears. It was like he was calling from a distance, trying to reach the mirage of the man he loved. But everything was crumbling and turning into nothingness around him. Nothing seemed real. 

Except for the deep aching pain in his heart. 

"No! You do not have to say anything," Shun shouted in an uncharacteristic outburst. It was just like that day on the parking lot when he seemed to lose his sweet and innocent demeanour. "I should have known that it would not work out." 

"That's not true." Wang Che tried to break free from his pain and fear. 

Shun's eyes watered. "I should never have even entertained the thought. I mean, what kind of person would claim to love another and never say anything? How could you be fine with being close to me and never do anything?" 

Wang Che was too shocked to react. 

"I cannot understand if you are that dead inside that you can hold back your feelings. Or maybe, your feelings for me were never as strong as you thought they were. If you ask me, you just used me as an emotional support animal to keep you calm and stable." Shun continued. 

Wang Che opened his mouth, but he could not say anything. 

"I am truly stupid. I mean, the moment I had feelings for you, I decided to express them to you. And still, you had the self-control to stop me so that you could protect me from myself. Do you think I should thank you?" Shun continued his rant. 

Then, the room fell silent. Shun was going to continue with his histrionics when he realised what he had just said. His mouth fell open, and his eyes widened in guilt. He looked from Wang Che to Hu Lei and finally, to Zhong Feng. 

The silence somehow seemed deafening. 

"Well, there goes my ah-ha moment.." Hu Lei said drily.
