Chapter 425 - Love Is Not Selfish

A job to become the bodyguard of the Young Master of the Li's family so she could secretly protect the woman he loves in his absence. Although she found this idea crazy and ridiculous she still agreed to help him. She didn't turn down his offer because she was a witness of how much her cousin loved and yearned to be with the woman he loves.

With her qualifications and skills, she did not have a hard time winning Li Yifeng's admiration. Yifeng hired her but with the condition that she would work as an undercover agent in his mansion.

What better plan would any smart person have come with other than catching the enemies unaware?

As a maid, even an enemy will ignore her thinking that she was nothing. Even the most scheming person will let down his guard in the presence of the person she doesn't regard as a threat and Feng Shu's job was to fish out these hidden enemies.

Just to Master her new undercover role, she had undergone training set up by Li Yifeng for three months before Yifeng brought her to his mansion as his maid. Within the time of working for Yifeng, she had saved him from more than three poison attempts and two assassination attempts.

Her job of protecting him in secret only changed when he and Yang Zi got into a relationship.. Instead of protecting him, she was charged with the duty of secretly protecting Yang Zi. Everything was going just fine until that night Yang Zi's mum died mysteriously. Everything changed after that incident.

When she informed Wang Yibo back then about the incident, the poor guy had almost gone insane. Seeing Yang Zi hurt was the last thing he ever wanted to happen. That is why he was miserable when he heard what happened.

Even though it was on the phone Feng Shu could see the impact Mrs Yang's death had on him. Because he was aware of the immense pain Yang Zi was going through, Wang Yibo felt twice hurt. 

He was about to return when he heard the news that the eldest and little Young Miss of the Yang's family had both disappeared. He was only able to breathe properly when he received Feng Shu's news that he was with Yang Zi.

....

"Was he ill all this time? Or was it after we returned?" The impatient Yang Zi interrupted her sharply.

"He was diagnosed with a brain tumour six months ago. If you can still recall six months ago I told you that I had a family emergency and I travelled out of the country...,"

"Yes, how could I not recall it? Mi Er cried a lot after you travelled for two weeks," Yang Zi said in a meek tone.

"I had travelled back then after Yibo informed me about his illness. I tried to convince him into undergoing surgery but you know how stubborn he can be when he has made up his mind. He refused to have surgery and his reason was that...," Feng Shu trailed in a sad tone.

"Was I the reason he refused to undergo the surgery?" Yang Zi asked the obvious question.

"Hmm... He was scared that he might die without getting the chance to see you again. He loves you way too much, I am sure you are aware of this. And his deep love for you was the sole reason he wanted to spend his remaining days with you...," Feng Shu said as the tears she was trying to hold flowed freely.

"Even Uncle and Aunt are not aware of his illness. He threatened everyone aware of his illness to keep it a secret. He threatened me too, Zi Er," Feng Shu said as she cleaned her tears.

"How could YiYi be so stupid? He knows very well that it is impossible for me to love him in the way he wants me to since I am still deeply in love with Feng so how could he be so foolish?" Yang Zi said emotionally as she fought back the urge to break down in tears. 

"Zi Er, love is not selfish, Yibo's showcase of his love for you is an example of that. Zi Er, he will not hesitate to sacrifice his life for you, this is how much he loves you," Feng Shu said as she placed her right hand on Yang Zi's shoulder.

"He loves you without expecting anything in return so there is no need for you to feel guilty about anything. He kept his illness a secret because he did not want to see you sad. He will scold me if he learns that you do, so please stop crying, hmm?" Feng Shu said as she embraced Yang Zi.

How could YiYi be so silly? Six months ago he had a high chance of surviving if he underwent the surgery so why didn't he have the doctors operate on him. How could he refuse to have surgery because of me? Can't he think for himself just once? Did he think I would applaud him if I learned about this?

Yang Zi thought as she embraced Feng Shu tightly.

The two of them continued to stay on the rooftop. They did not want to go into Wang Yibo's room with tears in their eyes.

About an hour later, Feng Shu and Yang Zi entered Wang Yibo's room at the same time. It was also the moment they entered his hospital room that the once unconscious guy slowly opened his eyes.

Yang Zi was the first to see his fluttering eyelids, and she rushed to his side immediately. 

"YiYi, you are awake? How are you feeling? Are you feeling dizzy? You must be feeling hungry since it's lunchtime, right?" Yang Zi asked in a concerned tone as she helped him sit properly. Seeing her worried expression, Wang Yibo, who had never been treated this way by Yang Zi felt slightly uneasy.

"I am fine, Cutie Pie. There is no need to look so worried," Wang Yibo said as he raised his hand to her face.
