The Way You Look at Me | Chenji

Chapter 15 (Finale)

Mr. and Mrs. Zhong are eating dinner in the main kitchen when Chenle barged in. "Lele! What brings you here? It was a school night..." Mrs. Zhong asked.

Chenle stood in front of his parents. "I just want to ask something, that's all.."

"Is it urgent that you needed to come here?" His father replied. "I think so dad.."

He pulled out his phone and browsed through the gallery. But before that, he asked. "Who is Park Jisung?"

Mrs. Zhong choked on her wine while Mr. Zhong was a little bit speechless.

"Park Jisung? I don't know him.. Why did you ask, Lele?" Mrs. Zhong replied awkwardly.

"Then how do you explain this?" he showed up his phone, showing the pictures that they're together with.

Mr. Zhong doesnt know what to say, even Mrs. Zhong.

"Someone said that Jisung is my boyfriend.. Is it true?" he asked frustratedly.

Mrs. Zhong heaves a deep breath. "Yes, it's true.. He's your boyfriend.. Well, ex-boyfriend... We don't want you to be acquianted to him again.. He's the reason why you got into your accident.."

Chenle shakes his head. "I dont believe you.. Even though I'm angry at him, I believe he wouldnt do something like that.."

"You've met him?" Mr. Park asked.

"Met him? He's my roommate at Chante et danse.. Literally, my bestfriend.." he choked.

His parents couldnt believe what they heard. Jisung is so close to Chenle, why didnt he introduced himself as his boyfriend?

"He didnt introduced himself as your boyfriend?" Mrs. Zhong asked.

"Nope. That's why I'm angry at him.." He starts to walk upstairs.

"You're not going back to your dorm, Lele?"

"I'll sleep here tonight, for my birthday party tomorrow.."

Meanwhile, Jisung is crying at the dorm. Chenle hates him. So his heart feels a little shattered right now.

He tried calling Chenle's phone but the shorter doesnt answer.

"I deserved this.." he thought.

A knock can be heard from the door. He wipes his tears away before opening it.

It was Mark.

"Mark hyung?" "Hello Jisung.. Can we talk?"

"Of course..." Jisung replied, letting Mark in. He prepared some hot tea and snacks for Mark. They both sat down at the table.

"Mark hyung.." Jisung started. "Lele is..."

Mark cuts him off. "I know, Jisung.." The taller's eyes turned wide. "You knew?"

Mark sips his tea before talking. "Of course.. Grandma Zhong asked me to look out for you two.." Jisung couldnt believe what he heard.

Then he realized something. How someone sponsored his studies in Chante et danse.. The note initials G.Z... Of all people, how did he became a roommate with Chenle..

"Grandma Zhong planned all of this?" he asked. "Bingo!" Mark smiled.

"But why?" the taller asked. "She wants to put back things on their proper places..."

"But I dont deserved it.. I dont deserved Lele.."

Mark holds his hand. "Jisung.. You and I knew that its not your fault on what happened to Chenle.. It's just that his parents wanted you to take the blame.."
