"Shui Shui, please don't treat me like this. What happened was my father's mistake...,"

"And unfortunately you happened to be his son so you can't be exempted from this," Shui Shui completed the words for him. She still tried to leave but Xiaofei hugged her tightly.

​​

"Shui Shui, I love you so much. I can't bear to see us fighting so please let's stop fighting, hmm?" Xiaofei said as he hugged her tightly. He was so afraid she would slip away if he let go of her.

"Shui Shui, please don't punish me for my father's mistakes...,"

"Xiaofei, let go of me," Shui Shui ordered fiercely, as she tried to break away from his firm hold.

Seeing that Shui Shui wouldn't listen to him, Xiaofei released her.

"And one more thing Xiaofei, I would really appreciate it if you tell your family never to show up here again. Their visit is doing Zi Er more harm than good so I will love it if they never visit again," Shui Shui said as she opened the door and closed it immediately on his face.

After she closed the door, she rested her head against the door and sobbed bitterly. She held her aching chest as she sobbed.

"Miss Shui Shui, what's wrong? Why are you crying so much?" Feng Shu sitting on the couch said, as she stood up and approached Shui Shui. Realising that Yang Mi had cried herself to sleep, Shui Shui walked dejectedly to the couch and sat down.

Curious to see who or what made Shui Shui shed so much tears, Feng Shu opened the door and peeped outside. When she saw Xiaofei's departing back she understood why Shui Shui cried a river.

The moment Feng Shu closed the door and turned to walk back to the couch, she saw Yang Zi's right index finger move. Thinking that her eyes were deceiving her, she walked closer to the bed to confirm what she saw. Her heart started beating in excitement when she saw Yang Zi's eyes move.

"Miss Shui Shui, Young Miss's eyes and hands just moved. I guess she is trying to wake up," Feng Shu shouted in excitement. Her loud voice woke the sleeping Yang Mi up.

Shui Shui rushed to Yang Zi's bedside when she heard Feng Shu's words. Her heart swelled in happiness when she saw Yang Zi repeatedly blink her eyes. Yang Mi could not stop smiling when she saw her elder sister slowly open her eyes.

"Mum is awake," Yang Mi shouted elatedly, as she embraced Yang Zi whose eyes were now wide open.

Yang Zi who just woke up tried to get familiar with the foreign environment. After two minutes of scrutinizing the entire room, she got to realise that she was in the hospital. It was at this instant that others entered the room. From the way they breathed heavily, Shui Shui could tell that they ran all the way to get there.

"Why am I here and where is mum?" Yang Zi asked, looking around like she was searching for her mother. Everyone's expression in the room turned sad when they heard her question. Nobody wanted to answer her questions.

Little Mi Er just embraced her not uttering any words.

"Thank you for listening to Mi Er's words. I am so happy that you are finally awake," Yang Mi said, as she continued hugging Yang Zi.

Feng Shu stared at everyone's faces waiting for them to say something to Yang Zi but nobody was willing to break the sad news to her.

I know telling her the truth will hurt her but at least, she will accept reality this way. Keeping quiet and giving her false hope is not the best option here. She needs to learn the truth from us because it will get really ugly if her extended family enters the room and breaks the news to her.

Feng Shu thought as she exhaled deeply. She knew the consequences of what she will do might be terrifying but she still decided to do it.

"Your mum died three days ago. Your uncles and aunt as we are speaking are so eager to bury her. In fact, they would have buried her a long time had boss and the others not intervened," Feng Shu broke the news to the shock of everyone. Yifeng turned and shot her a murderous glare. Instead of trembling, the bold Feng Shu just stared back at him.

The moment Feng Shu finished her words, Yang Zi's head began to ache badly. Yang Mi still hugging her instantly pulled away when she heard Yang Zi groan in pain. Seeing her sister in pains made Yang Mi feel hurt too.

"Argh...," Yang Zi screamed, as she held her head in pain. Yifeng quickly rushed and sat beside her, he hugged her tightly. He caressed her back affectionately.

Knowing that Yang Zi would have not liked the terrified Yang Mi to see her in this condition, Shiyi signalled Feng Shu to take Yang Mi outside.

"Zi Er, what is wrong? Are you ok? Should we call the doctor?" Yifeng asked in a worried tone. What Yang Zi did next on realizing that he was the one who hugged her left everyone dumbfounded.

They all exchanged puzzled glances not understanding why Yang Zi would treat Yifeng like that.

"I have warned you never to touch me again so how dare you to lay your hands on me?" Yang Zi asked, throwing piercing glares at Yifeng whom she had violently pushed off the bed.

"You killed her so why are you pretending to be concerned about me? If you didn't want to see me go crazy because of the pain I am going through, you shouldn't have heartlessly shot my mum in the chest," Yang Zi shouted furiously.

Everyone's mouth dropped open in shock when they heard the revelation. They all turned and stared at Yifeng for an explanation but the explanation they were looking for never came.
