Chapter 322 - Devastated by the news
"That night was a sleepless night for all. The next day, when everybody had cald down, Uncle Lin, Uncle Tang, and my father decided to go and see Long Xun's father." Zhang Zhehan said. "When the reached the Long Mansion, they noticed that the whole mansion was empty. There was no trace of any servants or guards. Long Xun and his father were missing."
"They found a letter which was addressed to them. It was written by Long Xun's father and it said that he was will take his revenge and that he wanted all the wealth and the power of all the four prominent families. He wanted to be the king that ruled everyone."
"My dad was confused and shocked after reading that letter. Nobody thought that Long Xun's father would think and plan sothing like this. A search for Long Xun and his father was conducted. My dad, Uncle Lin, and Uncle Tang used all of their powers to search for them but we got no results."
"While the search for Long Xun and his father was going on, Uncle Lin got the news that his wife had gone into the labor and so he rushed towards the hospital. The twins were born and everybody was happy for them. The search for Long Xun and his father was still going on and then we suddenly got the news that Long Xun's father was in the Long Mansion."
"When my dad, Uncle Lin, and Uncle Tang reached the Long Mansion they saw that the whole mansion was on fire. The fire was so big and nobody knew how it was started." Zhang Zhehan described.
"Was Long Xun and his father present in the mansion at that ti?" Li Xiaolu asked.

Zhang Zhehan shrugged, "I am not sure but I heard from my dad that when they reached the Long Mansion, the fire was so big that they couldn't go inside the Mansion but they saw soone. They weren't sure if it was Uncle Long or not. The fire ambulance was called and they did everything they could to stop the raging fire."
"After the fire was put out, two burnt bodies were recovered. It looked like the bodies of Uncle Long and Long Xun but my father wasn't sure. Later on, it was declared that it?was the bodies of Uncle Long and Long Xun."
"I was devasted when I got the news of their demise. Our big family was broken. The Long family was gone and with them, our closeness and bonds were gone too. Since that day, people stopped talking about the Long Xun. It was like a taboo to ntion their na. Slowly, slowly as the days passed the rest of the three prestigious families continued on with their lives."
"Our gatherings stopped. We didn't mingle much with each other. Our family was close with the Tang family but for so reason the Lin family completely isolated themselves. " Zhang Zhehan inford.
"At that ti, I didn't understand why the Lin family were acting like that. Everybody thought that the Lin family were affected by the Long family's incident but now I know that reason why..." Zhang Zhehan trailed off.
The Lin family isolated themselves from everybody to hide the fact that one of their babies was kidnapped. Zhang Zhehan thought. They were busy searching for Li Xiaolu and that's why they stopped mingling with everybody else.
"Long Xun and his father's death was a big blow to all of us." Zhang Zhehan continued. "So many years have passed and we have slowly accepted the fact that they are not with us anymore. But for so reason, I always felt that Long Xun is alive." Zhang Zhehan said.
"I wasn't sure but I had this voice inside of that wasn't ready to accept his death. And that's why I didn't tell you about it because I, myself wasn't sure of it." Zhang Zhehan said.
"Recently many things happened that confird my doubts that he is still alive," he said.
Li Xiaolu was puzzled. "What things?" she asked.
"Do you rember my accident that happened a few months ago?" Zhang Zhehan asked.
Li Xiaolu nodded when suddenly sothing clicked into her mind and she asked in shock, "That accident was done by him?"
Zhang Zhehan nodded. "Yes, while I was still in the hospital I got a ssage from which vaguely made doubt his identity. After that, you t him a few tis like when he saved you once, then he gave you that expensive necklace. All of those things made confird my doubt."
"I see, " Li Xiaolu nodded. She understood why Zhang Zhehan hid all of these things from her. If she was in his place, maybe she would also have done the sa things.
"Xiaolu, are you angry that I hid all of these things from you?" Zhang Zhehan asked nervously.
"No..." Li Xiaolu shook her head. "I can understand why you did this."
Seeing that she wasn't angry or upset, Zhang Zhehan sighed in relieved but at the sa ti, he was wondering whether he should tell Li Xiaolu about her real family. He didn't want to hide this matter from her anymore.
Today's incident made him realize that no matter what happens, there should be no secrets between a husband and a wife. Secret leads to distrust, conflict, and tension between a couple and he didn't want that with Li Xiaolu.
He wanted a pure relationship with Li Xiaolu without any secrets or hidden things. He didn't want to see that hurt in her eyes anymore. He didn't want to repeat his mistake twice. So thinking about these things Zhang Zhehan decided that today he will tell her that she is from the Lin family.
