Chapter 56 - Frequent Relapse
Ding Dong!!
The sound of the doorbell snapped Sifeng out of his thoughts. Well, Queen Eliz's arrival was only in Sifeng's imagination. Sifeng who yearned too much for a 'mother' affection.
Sifebg laughed to himself at the silliness, hallucinating if Queen Eliz met Sifeng in this Human World. How stupidly can Sifeng expect things to go that far? Sifeng thought, sad.
Ding Dong!!
The bell sounded again. Sifeng walked slowly towards the door. Right now, it felt like Sifeng didn't want to see anyone. Let alone the people from Zhang Group.
Hopefully it's not the people from Zhang Group who are ordered by Mr. Zhang to take Sifeng home, please Sifeng.
After reaching in front of the door, Sifeng lazily opened the door.
At the door stood a girl. The girl looked panicked, her body was shaking. The girl looked sadly at Sifeng.
"A-Feng~!" softly.
Sifeng swiftly pulled her into his arms, trying to calm her down.
"Why? What happened, Lian Jiejie? Why do you look scared like this?" asked Sifeng, worried for his sister, Zhang Lian Ji.
The woman could only be silent as Sifeng hugged her. Lian Ji's lips trembled, and her tears spilled out.
Lian Ji tightened her embrace on the body of Sifeng, his younger brother.
"Where have you been, A-Feng? I've been looking for you everywhere! This sister of yours is really worried about you, Stupid! I'm sorry, A-Feng! I couldn't protect you, My Brothers! Huks ... huks huks." Jian Li spoke, bursting into tears.
Sifeng gently wiped the tears on his sister's cheeks. Sifeng invites Lian Ji to come in and invites Lian Ji to sit him down.
"Relax, Lian Jiejie! I'm fine."
*Jiejie = sister
*gege = brother
The woman was still crying. Tears just came out of her eyes, she couldn't hold it in. Lian Ji was so hurt to see her brother's current state. Sifeng looks messy and Sifeng's lips are pale. Looks like someone who is seriously ill.
"I'm fine, Jiejie. Don't cry anymore, please!" Sifeng asked, still trying to calm his sister down.
"You're lying, A-Feng! You're not doing well right now! Look at you! You're so skinny and pale, A-Feng. Why are you ruining yourself, um? Didn't the doctor forbid you to drink alcohol again, huh?!" Lian Ji spoke. The woman was trying hard to cover her sadness.
Sifeng took a deep breath and now sat beside the woman, his sister.
"I'm fine now, Jiejie. I'm used to being treated like this. You don't have to pity me, Jiejie! I'll be weak if someone like this pity me," said Sifeng, softly. Sifeng kept reassuring his sister that he was fine and didn't need pity.
Lian Ji couldn't help herself. Lian Ji hugged her youngest brother once more. All this time, Lian Ji had been too obedient to her mother. Lian Ji was so regretful at this time.
Lian Ji didn't even care about Sifeng and Yushen. But, during these past 2 years Lian Ji's instinct as an older sister suddenly appeared.
Well, the figure of a sister who has been hiding somewhere. It is now starting to show its existence.
"Mama did all this, A-Feng! The Zhang Group scandal was Mama who spread it. I heard Mama's conversation with Manager Zhen. They laughed with satisfaction because they made you fight with A-Shen," Lian Ji said. Lian Ji's gaze turned sharp with anger, when he talked about his very evil mother.
"What does this mean, Jiejie?" Sifeng asked, curious. Because he's a hangover, he can't digest his sister's words quickly.
"It was Mama who spread the news that you were Papa's illegitimate child to the media, A-Feng. She was also the one who caused Yushen's accident. The accident even put Yushen in a coma for three weeks. At the same time, Mama has injured my two younger siblings! I'm ashamed of my own mother's attitude, A-Feng!" Lian Ji said. She looked very sad and sorry. She was angry with her mother, but Lian Ji couldn't do anything about it.
Hearing that, Sifeng immediately gasped. Sifeng no longer cared about the news that spread in the media. But, what did Sifeng hear just now? Yushen had an accident and was in a coma for 3 weeks?
"Why? Why didn't I know that Yu Gege had an accident, Jiejie?" Sifeng's voice trembled.
Sifeng felt an excruciating pain in his chest. Why was Sifeng so cruel to the man who had been protecting her all this time? Sifeng is so stupid. He was too lost in Madam Wang's fake affection, Sifeng thought to himself.
Actually, it was Madam Wang who had instigated Sifeng. Madam Wang said that Yushen had been behind Zhang Sifeng's defamation all this time. Madam Wang also said that Yushen actually still had a grudge against Sifeng. If the opportunity arose, it was not impossible that Yushen would try to kill Sifeng again. Just like what happened in Japan at that time.
Sifeng, who had never received Madam Wang's affection, naturally believed. Sifeng even thought that Madam Wang had changed for the better.
Turns out, it was all fake. It was all just Madam Wang's attempt to turn Sifeng and Yushen against each other. That way, it was easier for Madam Wang to kill Yushen or Sifeng first. Obviously, Madam Wang really wanted Yushen and Sifeng to disappear from this world.
Sifeng squeezed his hair. He looked very depressed.
"I... I am the evil brother, Jiejie! I already accused Yu Gege of being the culprit of spreading the rumors!" said Sifeng, regretfully.
"No, A-Feng! It's not your fault. You are just victims, My Little Brother."
"Then, why wasn't I notified when Yu Gege had an accident, Jiejie?"
Lian Ji stroked Sifeng's shoulder, affectionately.
"Papa, Manager Huo and I have been looking for you all this time, A-Feng. Trust me! We are all very worried about you, A-Feng."
Lian Ji paused her sentence for a moment to take a deep breath.
"Finally, I remembered your secret apartment on Hainan Island," continued Lian Ji.
Sifeng was still silent, his heart was very frantic at the moment. He was so worried thinking about Yushen who was said to be in a 'coma'.
"Take me to visit him, Jiejie!" Sifeng asked, quietly.
***
Sifeng was on a plane bound for Beijing at this time. Sifeng's chest felt tight all of a sudden. Sifeng's chest hurt so much that it was hard to even breathe. It was as if Sifeng's chest was being squeezed by a boulder at this moment. Sifeng continued to press his chest, hoping that it would ease the pain in Sifeng's chest a little.
Sifeng took a deep breath to catch his breath, which was getting shorter and shorter. Sifeng even panted as he breathed. This kind of thing happens often. Sifeng didn't understand why his body was so weak these days.
Lian Ji who heard Sifeng's pained groan became worried. Sifeng looked in so much pain as he kept squeezing his chest.
"What's wrong with you, A-Feng? Are you feeling unwell?" Lian Ji asked frantically, when Lian Ji saw Sifeng's change in attitude. Sifeng looked uncomfortable and was constantly squeezing his own chest.
Sifeng jumped slightly. Sifeng immediately stopped squeezing his left chest.
At this time, Sifeng instead smiled gently at his sister. Sifeng patted the back of Lian Ji's hand that was in his arm.
"I'm fine, Jiejie. So calm down!"
"Don't lie, A-Feng! If you have a problem or complaint, tell me! You still think of me as your sister, right?" Lian Ji snapped. When she held Sifeng's hand, Sifeng's hand felt so cold and trembling. This made Lian Ji very worried about her brother.
Sifeng smiled again, and said that he was fine at the moment. How could he tell about his experiences in the world of Gods, right? Then, about the Watanabe family. Sifeng wanted to keep it all a secret from his sister.
So, Sifeng decided to change the subject.
"Oh yeah, will Yu Gege forgive me after this huh, Jiejie?" asked Sifeng, changing the subject.
"Of course, A-Feng. What are you talking about, huh? If A-Shen doesn't forgive you, I'll pinch his ears after A-Shen wakes up!" Lian Ji shouted.
After saying that, Lian Ji fell silent. Lian Ji was so worried right now. She was afraid that his threat to smack Yushen's ear earlier would not work.
What if Yushen wouldn't come back to his senses? Lian Ji thought, sad.
***
-Beijing, China-
A man lies weakly in one of the ICU rooms. Another man entered the room.
The man grabbed the hand of the man who was lying down and kissed it.
"You promised to take care of me forever, didn't you, Gege? So, now wake up! I have no fight if you just lie around like this! Oii... Zhang Yushen! Get up please!" said Sifeng, sounding so sad.
However, even though Sifeng kept shouting, Yushen still didn't respond. Yushen was still in a coma, like he was in a comfortable world.
"Lao Yu! Yu Gege! Get up, please!" shouted Sifeng back.
