387 Be with her
When An Qinyan called Han Zixin, he did not take much time in coming to his girlfriend. He was so anxious and stressed when An Qinyan called him. Lately, she had been a lot stressed due to issues at her home. He did not know what he should be advising her as it was her home issues but as a boyfriend, he had been with her. He was trying to cheer her up in his way and it sure worked but it was all temporary. As when she would return home, all those things would come back to her.
Lu Xuan’s behavior was affecting her a lot. She wanted to know what was wrong with him. One day, she came to him and expressed how Lu Xuan had been so tense lately that he had not been himself. He could not say anything other than that Lu Xuan would come around when he would not be able to take the problem by himself. But it seemed that day never came.
Gu Shangyan, who was the closest person to Lu Xuan, also had no clue what was wrong with him or it was what he was showing to everyone else.
An Xiulan was a cheerful girl. No matter how much stress she was in, she would always find a way to smile and with her smile, she would make everyone else smile too. Her vibrant personality was the reason why nobody believed that she could be in this much stress. But he knew that when she was upset, she felt crestfallen. She would cry alone and he did not want her to feel alone.
How could someone who would do anything to make anyone smile be allowed to cry in solitude? He just wished to see her smile and nothing else.
When An Qinyan called to let him know that An Xiulan wanted him with her, he was certain that something was not right with his girlfriend. An Qinyan also told him to come sooner as An Xiulan did not look good and that she had also cried a lot too. He only had to hear this and left his work as soon as possible. His superior was certainly not happy with him leaving the office like this but he left everything just to be with her girlfriend who needed her a lot at this time.
While driving his car, he was hoping that there would be a way through which he could fly to her this instant and wipe all her tears. That woman was the love of his life and the reason why he was still alive. It killed him each time a tear leaves her eyes. If it was up to him, he would take all the pain on her behalf. Those big and innocent eyes did not deserve to be filled with tears. He wished that her lips were always adorned with smiles.
He did not take long to be by her side. When he reached where she was, he saw An Qinyan sitting with her daughter. When An Qinyan saw Han Zixin, she quickly left. As she passed him, she said while putting a hand on his shoulder, “Take care of her. She is not telling us what’s wrong with her. But I think she will tell you. She always tells you whatever is bothering her. Will you take care of her?”

An Xiulan was his girlfriend. If he would not take care of her, then who would?
An Qinyan left An Xiulan in his care and left the room. She trusted that Han Zixin would be able to do what she was unable to do. Ever since An Xiulan and Han Zixin met, they were inseparable. Not just inseparable as friends but in grief and happiness too. If nobody knew what was going on with these two, they would always know. They shared everything. She was hoping that Han Zixin would be able to know why An Xiulan was crying.
Actually, An Qinyan had an idea about why An Xiulan was behaving like that but she did not want to believe that. She was ignoring the biggest truth that was in front of her.
Han Zixin hugged An Xiulan as she was sitting on the couch. As she felt his presence, she placed her head on his stomach while he hugged her in this position. Soon hot tears trickled down his shirt near his abdomen. It killed him to see her like this but he was a weak man and he could not stop whatever was making her cry like this.
“Zixin, Lu Xuan is going to America, “An Xiulan said, silently crying. “Does it mean we would be separate again? Why are we like this? What have we done to deserve this? When we were young, we were separated because of our parents. We met when we were grownups. Then, I had to leave for my future. When I was in Boston, I used to think that once my studies would be over, I would return home and then we all siblings would be together.” She hiccupped and he rubbed her back, “But this separation is not ending. I am back home but he is leaving again. And we do not even know for how long. I want to stop him but I cannot because he is running away from something here. I cannot force him to face his ghosts. He said he wants to go away to be himself again. What should I do? Am I going to lose my brother again?”
Han Zixin rubbed her head softly. He did not know that the matter was this serious. Lu Xuan was leaving the country. He had no clue about it. He did not know what happened to have the man take such a big decision but it seemed like there was no stopping this decision. If Lu Xuan did not even stop seeing his sister crying like this, things were more serious than they were thinking.
