Chapter 778: The Reason For Disaster...

"She heard something that she should not have," Xi Cheng replied calmly, not being affected by angry Lu Feng.

Lu Feng tightened his grip on Xi Cheng's collar as he asked, "What do you mean?"

"For now, just go to her as she must be scared," Xi Cheng suggested, his concern for Nixxxie looked genuine.

"Where is she?" Lu Feng asked as he let go of Xi Cheng.

At this moment, Nixxxie was more important for Lu Feng than taking his anger out on Xi Cheng.

"In her room," Xi Cheng replied.

Getting answer, Lu Feng turned to leave just then Xi Cheng called him, "Lu Feng, take care of her as you are the only one she might share this thing."

"You don't need to remind me this as you are in no place to do so," Lu Feng countered coldly.

"I can understand your anger but keep in mind I can never do anything to hurt her."

"I doubt it and it's better for you to stay away from her forever," Lu Feng warned as he left while Xi Cheng continued staring at his retreating back.

"Boss, is there something I need to do?" the assistant asked.

"No. Leave for now." Instructing, Xi Cheng sat on the sofa of the leaving room, staring at the staircase thinking how was Nixxxie doing.

Lu Feng knocked on the door and entered the room. He saw Nixxxie was sitting on the floor near her bed with her legs folded at her chest while burying her head into her arms which were placed at her knees.

He went to her and kneeled down in front of her. "Nicky, what happened?" worry evident on his face.

Nixxxie lifted her face to look up at Lu Feng, her eyes red and swollen, her nose was runny and its tip turned red too as the cheeks were wet due to not stop tears.

"Brother Feng." Saying Nixxxie hugged him tightly and cried while burying her face in his chest.

Lu Feng hugged her back and patted her head for a while to let her calm. After a while when she was calm, Lu Feng helped her get up and made her sit on the bed as he went to the table to fetch water for her.

"Have it first," Lu Feng instructed.

He was sure that nothing happened with her, but as Xi Cheng said he wondered what was the thing that Nixxxxie heard to make her this much devastated.

Nixxxie listened to him and drank the water as she was still sobbing and her eyes were still teary. Lu Feng got the glass back from her and put it aside.

Sitting next to her, Lu Feng asked, "Now tell me what happened?"

"I...am..sorry brother Feng." Finally, she spoke in between her mild sobs.

"Sorry for what. It's not a big deal if you call me when you need me." Lu Feng thought she was saying sorry to trouble him at this hour but it was not the case.

"I am sorry for what happened because of me and my family," said Nixxxie, her head lowered down apologetically.

"What do you mean?" Lu Feng asked as he looked at her, though he got a hint of what she was saying.

"Because of me, you lost your brother," Nixxxie replied.

Lu Feng sat silent for a while. Giving out a deep sigh, he spoke, "It's not your fault."

Nixxxie insisted. "It is my fault. My stepbrother killed Lu Qiang because he knew Lu Qiang was helping my mother to get everything back from him and he would lose everything. If I knew it, I would have stopped my mother. I never wished to get anything then why all this happened?"

Nixxxie started to cry and Lu Feng spoke, "Don't blame yourself for his wrongdoings and rest assured, he will get the punishment he deserves."

Hearing it, Nixxxie realized something and she asked, "Did you know about it?"

"Hmm!"

Nixxxie looked at him in disbelief, "Then why didn't you do anything?"

"I tried but it seems like his death is in someone else's hands."

"The one who shot him..."

"That was me."

"Why didn't he die then?" Nixxxie exclaimed as she really wished Xi Cheng to die.

"I would have done it again but it's up to the right person who deserves to punish him," Lu Feng commented.

Nixxxie looked at him questioningly to know who the person he was talking about and asked, "Yuyan?"

Lu Feng nodded and Nixxxie felt even terrible, "Did she know this all along?"

"Hmm!"

Nixxxie remembered she met Jiang Yuyan in the hospital but she didn't show anything to Nixxxie. "How am I going to face her now? Does he knows about it too?" Nixxxie asked.

"Jiang Yang is not aware of it," Lu Feng answered.

"I can't face them ever in my life. He loves her sister more than anything and when he will know I am the reason for his sister's pain, he won't forgive me," Nixxxie continued babbling to herself as she started crying again.

Lu Feng surrounder his hands around her shoulder to console her, "Don't think like this. You have nothing to do with this and I know Jiang Yang will understand it."

"I don't expect him to understand it. Instead, it would be better if he blames me for it because I can't ever go in front of him now. I can't forget I am the reason for this disaster." Burying her face in her palms she continued crying.

"Look at me Nicky," Lu Feng instructed and Nixxxie did so.

Wiping her tears he said, "Will you listen to me?" Nixxxie nodded.

"Stop blaming yourself and don't even think about going away from Jiang Yang," he instructed but there was no change in Nixxxxie.

"Do you understand, Nicky?" Lu Feng asked again being scared of what she will decide about herself and Jiang Yang.

Not answering him, Nixxxie asked, "Can you take me away from here?" Nixxxie asked. Whatever she tried, she couldn't stop crying.

Lu Feng thought to give her some time to get over the chaos in her mind and the shock she just got and agreed.

"Where do you want to go?" he asked.

"Anywhere but just away from here," Nixxxie replied.

"Hmm!" Nodding Lu Feng got up as he put forward his hand, "Let's go."
