Reborn as a Stranger

Chapter 34

(Cr. to the owner👆)

The sound of footsteps echoed from somewhere made Zhan nervous a bit. Someone had covered his eyes and tied his arms and legs. He sat up against the wall on the cold floor.

He tried to recall what led to this situation he is in now. He was with Zuocheng and Jili that morning. But he couldn't bring himself to enjoy with them and his body felt tired along with his mind. He just wanted to be alone and let his emotions takeover him. So he decided to go back to his home.

He left them and took a cab when he got a call from an unknown number. Remembering the phone was Yibo's, he hesitated a bit. He picked at last before the call ended.

However when he heard the voice from the other side, he felt the anger he tried hard to suppress flare up again. David, realizing Zhan was the one who picked up the call told him that he wants to meet him.

Overcome with fury and wants to end all of this, he agreed his request and went to the place where David shared as the meeting location.

David was waiting for him there. When he saw Zhan coming towards him, he quickly walked to him and began apologizing in an exaggerated manner.

"I'm sorry Zhan... I wasn't thinking clearly when i did those things... I-i know you are repulsed by me now but believe me Zhan... It's because i can't forget you... I can't forget those times when we were together... I know we would have been still together if Wang Yibo didn't come into your life... I don't know what he said to you to chose him but you have to think again Zhan... We've known each other for years... You know about me more than you know about him... "He paused for a moment and seeing the anger in Zhan's eyes, changed his words.

" Forget about him... You are here now with me... I can't live without you Zhan... I tried to forget you, to leave you alone... But i couldn't... I want you back Zhan..." His hopeful eyes didn't left Zhan.

Zhan felt deja vu hearing his words. He stood there quietly letting David say whatever he wants.

David continued to play his cards. "Zhan, i think we should go somewhere... Where there's no one to take you away from me... To a place where we can live happily... We can choose whichever place you like... We can live together.... Will you come with me Zhan? Please don't say no to me... I love you Zhan...I'll go crazy if i can't be with you.... Please Zhan... I'm begging you... Please " He begged again making Zhan astonished at the scene.

Zhan composed himself and said. "No." He slowly, but firmly continued. "I won't come with you. Do you think i'm still the naive Zhan you got to know in high school? I already gave you face by breaking up with you in peace. I didn't even blame you for anything. Yet you're still taking my kindness for granted huh?

I don't know why you approached me the first time. I thought you were a good guy. Then you left me without any reason. Again you came back to me and told a bunch of lies. Yet i let you back in my life. Then how did you treat me after that? Did you ever considered my feelings? I had to even apologize for something i didn't do. I thought you needed someone who understands you so that's why i still stayed with you.

But i do have my limits. I realized what i was doing was wrong and i was ruining myself and you. That's why i broke up with you. It has nothing to do with Yibo.

But lately from your actions i know you are not the David you had shown to me. You are someone different from what i know. You love me? Don't joke. Do you even know what love is? I came here because i wanted to know what's your intentions and who set you up for that. And quit your pathetic acting. Also i know that you aren't a human. So tell me the truth at least this time." He demanded.
