Chapter 418 - The Real Murderers

"Guangzhou, get the keys ready because we are taking Aunt to the hospital right now," Yifeng informed as he lifted her off the floor.

"Thank you Feng for giving me your words. Always remember to make Zi Er happy. Take care of my pitiful Mi Er. My two girls will be so miserable without me so watch over them," Mrs Yang's hands dropped after she completed her statement before Yifeng could take a step forward. His heart pounded fast against his chest as he lowered his gaze to stare at Mrs Yang's face. His heart almost stopped beating when he saw that her eyes were closed.

"Aunt, what is wrong? Wake up, you can't close your eyes," Yifeng said with trembling eyes as he lowered Mrs Yang on the floor so he could check up on her. Yifeng abruptly retracted his hand when he felt her pulse and found out that she had stopped breathing.

"No, this can't be happening," Yifeng said as warm tears rolled down his face.

"Boss, Madam is coming this way," Guangzhou, now standing close to the entrance, said as he raced towards Yifeng..

Hearing this Yifeng quickly put his weeping on hold and turned and shot Zhao Liying and her mother a murderous glance.

"You both deserve nothing but to die painfully for what you did to Aunt but since she wants you both to live I have no choice but to grant her last wish. Actually, whether you both will live or die relies on how fast your legs can carry you because I assure you that you both will die cruelly if Zi Er enters and sees you both here," Yifeng said coldly. He frowned when he saw that they were still standing there.

"Scram if you want to live," Yifeng yelled as he watched them hurriedly scramble to the left-hand side of the hall.

The hall had a passage that led out of the warehouse. He was too anxious to think of explanations to give Yang Zi to see that Zhao Liying's shoes had pulled out of her leg when she was hurrying to hide.

"Guangzhou, pass me the gun," Yifeng ordered, standing up to his full height.

"What are you trying to do boss? You are not trying to do what I am thinking of right?" Guangzhou asked, not obeying Yifeng's order.

"Do you have a better solution? The time we have is too short to come up with a better solution. Zi Er is smart and she will easily figure out the truth if we come up with lies rashly. You heard what Aunt said, Zi Er can't learn that Zhao Liying and her mother did this...,"

"But doing this is cruel to you and unfair to Madam. She will be heartbroken if you take the blame for this," Guangzhou said, still not willing to hand over the gun to Yifeng. Their heart began pounding fast when they heard a footstep draw closer. Before the distracted Guangzhou could fathom what was happening Yifeng, snatched the gun from him and aimed it at the dead woman.

It was at this minute that Yang Zi entered the hall. She met a perfect fabricated murder scene.

I am sorry Zi Er but this was Aunt's last wish, I can't go back on my words to her no matter how hurt it feels to see you stare at me with that look.

Yifeng thought as he used all his strength to harden his expression. It is only by looking emotionless that he will get to fool his smart woman. Her gaze showed that his plan had worked.

Seeing her run towards her mother with tears in her eyes made his heart bleed, but all he could do was stare at her with the gun still in his hands. This day is a day he will never forget. The expression Yang Zi gave him will forever be engraved on his heart. This expression of hers will teach him never to betray her trust.

...

"What! Zhao Liying and her goddamn mother killed my mum cold-bloodedly?" Yang Zi asked subconsciously standing up to her feet after Yifeng concluded the narration.

"Zi Er, calm down ok? You can't act rashly because this was what Aunt was afraid of when she told me to conceal the truth of her death...,"

"Don't touch me," Yang Zi said, brushing off his hand from her body.

"Feng, how could you do this to me? How could you break my heart like that? Did you think I will feel grateful that you took the blame for my mother's murder you didn't commit? Tell me, did you think I would applaud you for your excellent acting in completely deceiving me?" Yang Zi asked angrily as she walked away from where he stood.

"And how do you expect me to stay calm after all I heard. If you were the one, would you stay calm after learning that the one who cold-heartedly killed your beloved mother is alive and well?" Yang Zi asked fiercely as she turned and stared at Yifeng.

"If you were in my shoes, would digging out their heart and feeding it to the dogs suffice your anger and pain? Wouldn't you want to cut their flesh into tiny pieces and throw it into the sea so that they will feel the pain of dying slowly and painfully," Yang Zi said as she turned and walked away but Yifeng stood up and hurried after her?

"I will kill those two and avenge my mum who died unjustly in their hands," Yang Zi said as she approached the entrance which served as an exit.

"Cool down a bit Zi Er," Yifeng who finally caught up to her when she was turning the knob of the door said.

"Zi Er, I know you are mad at me for being such a jerk. You have the right to be angry so hit me to relieve your anger but promise me that after hitting me you will sit and try to calm down," Yifeng said as his grip around her waist tightened.
