After

Extra - After Lies

SURPRISE, MOTHERFUCKER! Yep, I have written an extra! Love me.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jian Yi had been treated for two weeks; a psychiatrist would visit him every single day. He was dealing with his trauma quite well, already being able to walk just fine. Talk also was becoming easier each day. However, his heart ached. Unable to smile at his one true love, unable to throw himself on his arms and never let go, unable to tell him how much he loved him.

"You are cruel." He hissed. The woman sitting in the corner of the room didn't even move.

"Gladly you like him enough to care for his life."

"When is he coming?"

"He usually stops at six. He drops by after school."

"Then tell me, for how much more time will I have to keep with this ridiculous act?"

"I don't know." She sighed. "I'm not the one behind it, Yi."

The blond didn't have time to process the information, as his bedroom's door opened up. He couldn't hide his surprise when he saw the man entering the room. His brown hair was still the same, but his silvery eyes looked tired. Jian Yi's mother got up from the chair, and the man dragged it near the bed. He sat lazily, sighing heavily.

"Fa-father?" Jian Yi stuttered. "What's this person doing here, mother?" He pointed at him trembling.

"You need to talk." She said carelessly, leaving the room and closing the door behind her.

"How are you feeling, Yi?" The man asked.

"Do you even care?"

"You are my son, after all."

"That's the reason why you decided to test my limits?"

"I see you are slier than it seems."

Mr. Jian wouldn't say it out loud, but he didn't need to. Jian Yi had already figured what really happened.

First of all, He Qiang had never betrayed Mr. Jian. The day Jian Yi and the others came to rescue Zhan Zheng Xi, He Tian's brother was told to make a scene, pretend he got pissed off by the things Mr. Jian said. All the boys actually fell for it quite easily.

Second, knowing about She Li's growing interest in Jian Yi, He Qiang was told to keep pretending and gather as many people as he could. Mr. Jian made him help She Li out, with the excuse of wanting nothing more than revenge. In order to make it more believable, he even created a whole new triad. Both She Li and Xiao Hui fell for it, hard.

The third part of the plan was adapted, though. They thought She Li wanted to torture Jian Yi and Mo Guan Shan (Redhead was the best example of 'wrong place, wrong time'. Neither 14K nor Sun Yee On had interest in him, but when He Qiang learned that his young brother had a crush on him, and She Li wanted to make him pay, oh, it was just like hitting two birds with a single stone.), but later on his true intentions came clear.

Mrs. Jian needed to know her son's limits before handing him to her husband. She felt excited upon the realization that it took far more for Jian Yi to break down than the other people she tested. Her excitement only grew when she saw that his recovery was just as fast as it could be. But they still had a hindrance. Zhan Zheng Xi. The boy would get in her way to make her son the greatest leader that had ever been born.

The fourth and last part of the plan regarded the blond's relationship with Zhan Zheng Xi. Mrs. Jian told her son that he needed to deceive his own boyfriend. He had to pretend he wasn't getting any better, or else the brunet would get killed. Jian Yi acted, chest tight and anger boiling. But he had all his limbs tied up, he couldn't do anything but comply.
