Love Me As You Love Him

19

A week passed, now Zhan and his father are heading to the airport. Zhan felt very sad because he had to part with his father. "Zhan, I promise to call you always. Don't cry." said his father. "I still miss you dad. Stay a little longer." Zhan said while wiping his tears. "If dad takes another day off, who will do dad's work?" replied the father while gently stroking his son's hair. "I still miss my son, but I have to go to work. Zhannnn, I promise you that you will take care of yourself. Take care of your health, your studies." added his father again. Zhan nodded his head while wiping his tears and continued to hug his father.

"Zhann, father has to go." said his father while hugging his son. "in a moment" replied zhan. "Zhann, dad has to go. You've been hugging dad for over 3 minutes. The announcement has been called many times. I don't want to miss the flight." said father while kissing zhan's cheek. zhan laughed a little. "Okay. Bring a lot of money." Zhan said with a big smile. finally Zhan's father picked up the bag and went to the fence. they wave each other's hands and smile.

"no. 2101. room 12." an announcement sound is heard indicating the next patient to enter the treatment room. "how long?" asked yibo while playing PUBG on his phone. "a little more. 2 more people." replied zuocheng. "What's your number?" asked zuocheng again. "2104." replied zuocheng. yibo just hmm to zuocheng's answer. "Sorry yibo. You have to accompany me to the hospital." zuocheng felt guilty. Haikuan often accompanies Zuocheng to the hospital to do daily treatment on her unborn child. zuocheng is now heavily pregnant. "It's ok." replied yibo while smiling at zuocheng.

"no.2104 room 14." the announcement sounded. "oh, that's my number. you wait here ok." said zuocheng as he got up and headed to the door of room number 14. just halfway zuocheng was hit by a baby carriage and almost fell. fortunately yibo managed to hold zuocheng's body from falling. "oh excuse me. I didn't notice." said a woman. "its okay." replied zuocheng. "Is that okay?" said the woman again. zuocheng continued to rush without replying to the woman as zuocheng's number was called again. The woman nodded her head to the yibo and yibo responded before giving way to the woman and her child.

Yibo was just about to move to his seat when a very familiar voice stopped Yibo's steps. "honey, that's you." Yibo turned towards the voice and saw Yubin with the woman joking. "so that's his wife." said yibo in his heart while looking sharply at them. as if feeling that sharp looking, yubin turned his head towards yibo. Yubin was surprised to see Yibo standing there. Yibo gave a sly smile before heading to his chair.

Yubin who was surprised to see yibo continued to feel pale. Yubin is afraid if Yibo tells about him and his wife having a child. Yubin who felt scared continued to take his wife away from there.

***********
The next day, Yibo took Zhan to his house to go to college together. after taking zhan, they went straight to the college. "Zhan are you ok?" asked Yibo. "yeah I'm ok." Reply Zhan. "Really? You look pale." Yibo said unsatisfied. zhan really looked pale and weak. "Yes, I'm ok. Maybe I'm tired and sad that my father has returned to British." replied Zhan.

they didn't say much during their journey to college. upon arriving at the college zhan immediately got off after thanking yibo. yibo also joined and followed zhan from behind.

arriving in front of the faculty hall they separated because their classes were in different faculty buildings.

*********
break time begins, zhan, yibo and other friends meet in the canteen. they started eating and joking until their laughter stopped when a woman stood by their table. The woman looked at Zhan with an angry look. The woman looked very angry.

"who is xiao zhan?" asked the woman. they were all stunned and said nothing. until the woman took out her phone and dialed someone. zhan's phone suddenly rang and startled them all. zhan immediately picked up the call without looking at the screen. "hello. hello" said zhan.

suddenly Zhan's hand was violently snapped by the woman. "Finally we meet." said the woman he called. hearing that Zhan was even more surprised and looked at the woman with wide eyes. "who... who... are you?" Zhan asked in fear. "who am I? you ask who I am?" the woman laughed. yibo immediately grabbed zhan's hand and wanted to take him away.

"WAIT!!!!!!"

they stopped. yibo turned to the woman. "what do you want?" asked yibo angrily. "aren't you the boy who was in the hospital yesterday?" asked the woman to yibo. Yibo was surprised and immediately remembered that the woman in front of him was Yubin's wife. "haha already remember? no need to hide him. THAT FUCKING HOMEWRECKER." the woman raised her voice as she said 'that fucking homewrecker' while pointing her finger at zhan.

everyone in the canteen stopped what they were doing and started looking at Zhan's table while whispering. Zhan's body began to tremble. yibo immediately took Zhan's hand and started walking. "XIAO ZHAN AH, ARE YOU ENJOY DESTROYING SOMEONE'S HAPPINESS. ARE YOU ENJOY BEING WITH SOMEONE'S HUSBAND WHO IS ALSO YOUR PROFESSOR? YOU LOOK INNOCENT BUT BITCH." the woman did not despair. Zhan's steps stopped when he saw under his feet there were several pictures of himself with Yubin. without the know yubin wife throwing a lot of pictures in the air when zhan and yibo wanted to leave the canteen area.

everyone there was scrambling to get the pictures that were flying in the canteen area. all the students in the canteen were surprised to see the picture and started whispering and some of them recorded it. Zhan's friends started moving to collect all the pictures. The woman came towards Zhan and slapped him so hard that Zhan falling down before starts attacking zhan and yibo tries to protect zhan.

Yibo and Zhan were both beaten by the woman. Fortunately the guard and Yubin arrived at the canteen and stopped the woman. "stop it dear. everyone is looking. don't embarrassed me." Yubin said. "embarrassed? when you did it with this slut, do you weren't embarrassed? why embarrassed now? am i  embarrassed you that much? what you did with this slut is right?" the woman got angry and hit Yubin. "Sweetheart, let's go home. Our son is waiting for you at home." Yubin said while holding back the woman's hand from hitting her and pulling the woman out of the canteen. 

"HOW DARE YOU, YUBIN. how dare you doing this to me? dont use our baby to stop me. i asked you yubin, am i  not satisfied for you? what so good about this slut? is he better than me? i give you everything, yubin. dont forget that. without me , you're nothing. NOTHING! this is what you reply my kindness? last question, are you love me?" shout that woman. "dear, yes, i love. i love you so much. it my mistake to fall for lust. we dont have any relationship. only him who keep coming to me. i am a man, dear. easy to fall in lust. i am so sorry. lets go home now."

form far they argued can be hear in the canteen. zhan start crying. he cant believe yubin will say like that. so it is true that he is nothing for him. he only lust. a mistake. Zhis body was stiff and he could only sit on the floor even though he really wanted to run away from there but failed because he couldn't do it except cry. he looked at the picture that was on the floor near him. yibo also saw and pushed the picture away from zhan's view. the picture is not a good picture. "zhan, don't look at that picture again. let's get out of here." Zhan said as he opened his jacket and placed it on Zhan's head to cover Zhan's face.

all the way zhan home, zhan just cried. yibo tried to calm zhan down but to no avail. when he got home zhan immediately went in and closed the door before yibo could go in with him. yibo was stunned. "zhan. open this door." Yibo knocked on Zhan's door but Zhan didn't open it. Yibo cried in front of Zhan's door. "zhan. don't do this. let's face it together." said yibo as he placed his forehead on zhan's door. "zhan please give me a chance to take care of you and protect you. look at me." screamed yibo in his heart.
