Chapter 381 - She Fell And He Could Not Save Her

"I know she has said I shouldn't touch her, but I can't do that today. I am sure she is gonna fall if no one lends her a hand," Yifeng, on seeing Yang Zi staggering backwards when she was some distance away from her car, mumbled as he hurried so he could close the gap between them. He was just an arms reach away when his fears came to pass. The pale looking Yang Zi fell backwards but Wang Yibo standing right beside her was fast enough to catch her before her delicate body could collide against the hard floor.

"I told you to relax countless times but you just wouldn't listen. Now, look what your stubbornness has caused? Are you happy now, Cutie Pie?" Wang Yibo, who managed to catch her, scolded sternly as he tried to balance himself on the floor.

Yifeng quickly retracted his outstretched hand, when he saw that another man had managed to save his woman. His heart hurt so much that he wasn't the one who saved her.

I am the one to blame for what happened to her. Zi Er wouldn't have overworked herself if I had told her that I never killed Auntie. She wouldn't have to be so hard on herself if she did not think that she was betrayed by the man she loved. My beloved Zi Er wouldn't have to put on this cold facade to deceive everyone into thinking that she was strong. I am responsible for her pain. Just like she said, I don't even have the right to feel hurt.

Yifeng thought as he watched Wang Yibo lift the weak Yang Zi from the ground. He watched as he gently put her inside the car.

I guess, it is time to stop deceiving myself into thinking that I am the one who loves Zi Er the most in this world. Maybe there is a guy who loves her more than I do and that guy happens to be Wang Yibo. Maybe, I have long realised his undying love for Zi Er but I just brushed it off as a child's play because I was jealous of his closeness to Zi Er. I kept telling myself that I should be the one there. He stole my place. He doesn't have the right to be around her.

What if he never stole my place and what if he deserves to be with her more than I do? What if he isn't the one who only loved Zi Er but Zi Er feels the same way for him? What if I am the one deceiving myself?

Yifeng thought as he watched Wang Yibo take his place beside her in the car. He saw him readily lending her his shoulders. This was happening right in front of him yet, he could not do anything. 

So, what if he hates seeing her close to another man? So what if his heart hurts to see another man treat her well? He doesn't have the right to express his pain since he was the reason why they both drifted apart. He hurt her first by keeping secrets so maybe he deserves to get treated this way.

Even though there is a tiny possibility that Zi Er doesn't love me anymore I will never stop loving her because the day I stop loving her is the day I die. No human can live without a heart and Zi Er is my heart. Trying to stop loving her is equivalent to me saying that I don't want to live in this world anymore. I love Zi Er so deeply and no matter the outcome, I will accept it as my fate. It will hurt no doubt, but I am sure I can endure it with her love residing in me.

Yifeng thought before he quickly approached where he parked his car. He always loved to follow her without taking his driver along with him so despite being in an emotional state, he still had to drive his car. Yifeng closely followed Yang Zi's car.

Inside the car, Wang Yibo ordered the driver to take them to the nearby hospital.

"YiYi, I don't want to go to the hospital. I need to join my team who are already in New York City. I can't afford to waste a second...,"

"If you cared about the event, then you should have rested more. I know you need the means to distract yourself from thinking about him but you shouldn't have done that at the expense of your health. I have tried so many times and even scolded you countless times not to over exhaust yourself but you just won't listen to me. Now look at what your stubbornness has caused," Wang Yibo stated angrily. He was angry at himself that he couldn't convince her to do the simplest thing such as taking a break.

"YiYi, I know that you are angry but this is not the time to accord blames. I know I am to be blamed for not taking good care of myself so you don't have to be so hard on yourself. What you should be doing now is to take me home. I have already booked a flight for this afternoon and I can't afford to miss it," Yang Zi leaning on Wang Yibo's shoulder said feebly.

"I know this event is very important to you. In fact, it is as important to me as it is important to you but no matter how crucial this event is your life is a thousand times more important so stop acting stubborn and let me take you to the hospital so the doctors can ascertain what is wrong with you. You can't afford to faint on stage, can you?" Wang Yibo said seriously.

"But...,"

"There is no but in this Cutie Pie. Mo Yu is over there with the team in New York City so I am sure that everything will go smoothly. In times of perfection, Mo Yu is likely to you so be rest assured that she will do an excellent job coordinating the team. And also, the event is not tomorrow so I am sure you will meet up if you leave for New York City on tomorrow's first flight. If you are still uneasy even after I told you this, then I will call Mo Yu every three hours to ask her about how the preparation is going over there," Wang Yibo said just to change Yang Zi's mind. Seeing that his words did not change Yang Zi's mind, Wang Yibo decided to use his last resort.
