☆、Eighty-seven、We're finished (1951 words)
Li Yaxi learned Zhou Yang's address from Qin Tian and went directly to his door.
Zhou Yang's expression changed slightly as he looked at the person who appeared at the door, then a smug look flashed across his face.
"Ya Xi, what brings you here? Come in quickly."
Everyone in the room stared at Li Yaxi in surprise. Feng Zihao quickly went to Li Yaxi's side.
"Why are you here? You can call me if you need anything."
Li Yaxi glanced around. Zhan Xiaoyu and Zhao Yi were both there, along with two other people he didn't recognize. He then turned his gaze to Feng Zihao.
"What, can't I come?"
"No...no, it's just that it's dangerous for you to be out alone so late. Is there something you need?"
"Can't I talk to you even if there's nothing wrong?!"
Seeing Li Yaxi's sudden sharpness, Feng Zihao seemed slightly distracted. Zhou Yang frowned as he looked at him.
"Ya Xi, Zi Hao is busy with important matters, so don't be unreasonable."
"It's none of your business how I am!" Li Yaxi said coldly.
Zhou Yang lowered his head, his face pale. Feng Zihao pulled Li Yaxi's hand and walked towards the door. "Alright, Yaxi, why don't we go back first? It's getting late."
Zhou Yang hurriedly called out to him, "Brother Zihao! How can you leave now!"
Feng Zihao hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow. I'll take Ya Xi home first."
Zhan Xiaoyu stopped Feng Zihao. "Ya Xi, you should go back first. We really have something important to discuss. Zihao is pressed for time right now and can't leave. Otherwise, we can have Qin Tian come and pick you up."
"What important business can't I hear about!"
Zhao Yi also felt that Li Yaxi's presence was somewhat inconvenient. "There are some things you don't understand, and... it really is a bit inconvenient. Yaxi, you should go back first. Zihao will explain it to you properly another time."
Feng Zihao saw that Li Yaxi was a little angry and felt a little sorry for her.
"Never mind, it's really late today, let's talk about it tomorrow."
One of the other two strangers spoke up at this moment.
"What exactly do you want? You're the ones in a hurry because time is of the essence, but now you're dragging your feet. We don't have that much time to waste!"
Li Yaxi's line of sight was right in front of Zhou Yang's cold smile. After a moment of silence, she looked at Feng Zihao.
You also think I can't help you with anything, right?
"No, Ya-Xi!"
Feng Zihao hurriedly explained, "Ya Xi, I just didn't want you to worry. Okay, let's go back, let's go back right away, okay?"
Li Yaxi shook off Feng Zihao's hand and looked at him with some sadness.
"If it's not about why I have to go back, it's all about those political messes! Everyone knows that! What's the point of hiding it from everyone! You haven't said a single word to me since your family's incident! You keep telling me not to worry, but you're always so busy, how can I not worry! You won't tell me anything! You want me to rely on you, but you deliberately push me away! Feng Zihao, what exactly do you want!"
Seeing Li Yaxi so heartbroken and sad, Feng Zihao felt as if he were being pricked by needles.
He didn't say anything because he didn't want him to get involved in this kind of intrigue, but why do his original intentions always seem to go astray without him realizing it? This is the kind of Li Yaxi he absolutely doesn't want to see, how could he bear to hurt him even a little bit!
"Ya Xi...I..."
Li Yaxi let out a deep breath, her eyes filled with sorrow, but her tone remained calm.
"You told me... to tell you everything and not keep it to myself, but you haven't even realized you're too busy to listen to me anymore! You think I've changed, and yes, I have, because you're drifting further and further away from me. Feng Zihao, I don't want to wait anymore. I have no patience or perseverance. We're over."
After Li Yaxi finished speaking, she turned and left. Feng Zihao panicked and hurriedly chased after her, pulling her away.
"Ya Xi, I know you're angry that I haven't told you many things, but I really just don't want you to be exposed to the dark side of society. I just want you to be happy. If you think what I did was wrong, then I'll change. From now on, I'll tell you everything, I'll tell you everything. Please don't be angry, okay? Don't say things like that! Didn't we promise to be together forever?"
But you're gone!
Looking at Feng Zihao's anxious and panicked face, Li Yaxi felt a sharp pain in her heart, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
"When I needed you, you weren't there... Ask yourself, how many times have you abandoned me for Zhou Yang! You said that as long as I obediently stayed by your side, it would be helping you, but I did, and yet you left me alone time and time again for Zhou Yang."
"No, Ya-Xi! It's not like that. You know it happened because of my family, I..."
“Zihao! Zhou Yang helped you find a way, pulled strings, even got himself on an IV drip to help you, and worked himself to the bone for you. But have you ever thought about how much I hate him? I've hated him from the very beginning! He used this opportunity to help you get back into your life, and that gratitude has already taken a place in your heart. But what about the future? I don't want to see you abandon me for him! Don't say you won't! Once it happens, it'll happen again and again!”
"Ya Xi, please don't make a fuss over that little argument from before and upset Zi Hao, okay? If you really care about Zi Hao, don't argue with him. He's already exhausted from dealing with family matters. Please be understanding!"
Zhan Xiaoyu couldn't stand seeing Li Yaxi throwing such a tantrum.
Li Yaxi glanced at him indifferently and smiled slightly. "See? Even they think I'm just causing trouble."
A tear rolled down Li Yaxi's cheek as she looked intently at Feng Zihao.
"I'm tired, it's over."
She pushed Feng Zihao's hand away and turned to leave.
Feng Zihao stared blankly at his freed hand, somewhat at a loss.
