Ah Cy, Liang and Caihong were stunned to see the scene unfold before them. A bunch of guards stood at attention. Xiaosi was seated on his chair at the center with Han Huizhong on the verge of losing his consciousness.

"Grandpa!"

Zhiyuan rushed to his side and quickly supported him on his shoulders as he helped him stand up. "Grandpa! What is wrong? Y-you look…"

Liang immediately supported him on the other side and checked his condition. "His breathing is erratic and he is clutching his chest. And this pale condition... It could be a sign of a heart attack."

Zhiyuan blankly stared at him. 

"What?" He looked down at Han Huizhong who was hardly able to stand on his own. Zhiyuan quickly helped him sit on the bed. "Grandpa."

He held his hand and rubbed his palm. "Grandpa? You can hear me right?"

Han Huizhong weakly raised his head towards him. "Zhiyuan…"

He nodded. "Yes, Grandpa. I am here okay? Just relax and I will take you to the hospital. You will be fine okay? I will not let anything happen to you."

He shook his head. "No... hospital…" he breathlessly said. "I will...not go anywhere…" he trembled as he spoke.

Liang said, "You have to. We don't have a choice. Don't be stubborn, Grandpa. Just look at your conditions."

Ah Cy brought a glass of water and urgently said, "Grandpa, drink some water. You will feel better."

She wiped the sweat off his forehead. Caihong stood rooted to the spot the whole time. This was the first time that she had seen Han Huizhong so vulnerable and in such a weak state. She turned to look at Xiaosi who seemed the least bothered and unaffected by this whole fiasco.

His lack of empathy made Caihong stare in a daze.

What was happening?

Han Huizhong was here and Xiaosi too...Was it really him?

"Xinyi…" he whispered.

Zhiyuan froze. "Xinyi? Grandpa, have you met Xinyi?"

The mention of Xinyi made his heart skip a beat.

His shaking finger pointed at the other room. "There…she is there…take her out…" he took a sharp gasp. "Xiaosi has kept her there…"

Caihong stiffened. Dread and disbelief crept into her chest as a tear slid past her cheek. 

So, it was really him…

Caihong chose to trust him despite how much Zhiyuan blamed him. In the end, she was proved wrong. 

As Zhiyuan's murderous gaze landed upon Xiaosi, he lunged to his side and punched him in the face. "Zhu Xiaosi!"

Xiaosi's face was tilted to the side as a hard punch landed on his cheek. It cut his lip that bled. The guards came to his rescue, but he stopped them. "Leave."

Zhiyuan grabbed his shoulder and as his blood boiled in anger, he yelled, "Who the hell do you think you are! How dare you even touch Xinyi? Remember what I told you on the cruise trip? If you dare touch my family, I will kill you! You have crossed all your limits Xiaosi!"

The nerves on the back of his hand popped out as he felt a volcano surge inside him.

Ah Cy furiously said, "Xiaosi, what the hell is your problem!? Ever since you came back, you have been causing nothing but problems! And now you even targeted Xinyi! Have you lost it?"

He said nothing.

"Answer us!" Liang said. "First, you take Xinyi away and now Grandpa is in such a state! What are you planning?"

Zhiyuan wasn't done with him. But now he wanted to see Xinyi first. He wanted to see her safe and sound.

He threw him away and stomped his way towards the connecting room. With two loud kicks, the door broke open.

Han Huizhong anxiously said, "Man...there is a man inside…" he huffed and his countenance paled even more.

Liang held him and helped him sit again. "Grandpa, please sit. You are not in a good condition."

As Zhiyuan stepped into the dark room, he finally saw Xinyi's figure lying on the bed. "Xinyi!"

He ran towards her and switched on the bedside lamp. Xinyi was on the bed, unconscious. Relief washed over him to see her safe. 

"Xinyi?"

He gently shook her and pulled her out. "Xinyi…"

He looked around and found a jar of water. He quickly made her lean on the bed and poured some water into a glass. He dipped his fingers into it and gently splashed a few drops on her face.

Her brows immediately furrowed, and her eyelashes fluttered.

"How is Xinyi!" Ah Cy rushed in, worrying for her. 

"She is unconscious."

"Mhmn…."

Xinyi slowly opened her eyes and found the world in front of her spinning. "Where…"

"Xinyi," Zhiyuan softly squeezed her hand and pulled her into his embrace. "Xinyi…" he whispered, "It's okay now."

Ah Cy smiled and wiped a tear. "Thank God she is alright."

Her disorientation faded away and she saw herself wrapped in a warm hug. She raised her head and stared at him in a stupor.

"Zhiyuan…" she whispered.

He nodded and kissed her forehead. He tightened his embrace and hugged her hard. His pounding heartbeat calmed down as he felt her warm and soft body.

Finally…I found you...

Outside, Han Huizhong anxiously watched as Zhiyuan stepped in. He thought there would be a fight between him and that man who was ready to ruin Xinyi. But he didn't hear any sound.

"That man...b-be alert of that man…he is there…"

Liang frowned. "Which man?"

"That stranger!" Han Huizhong got riled up even more. "The one…who will...ruin Xinyi...on Xiaosi's signal…" he coughed.

Silence.

Liang was horrified. "What?" He jumped up to his feet. "Wait here, Grandpa," and he sped off towards the other room.

Caihong stumbled in her steps and the last straw that she held onto for believing in Xiaosi also broke.

She tremblingly turned towards him. As Xiaosi met her gaze, he silently stared at her. Caihong walked towards him. For a long time, nobody spoke.

Then she finally gathered her courage. Her lips shivered as she asked the most dreadful question. "Did you really do this Xiaosi?"

"Yes," he didn't hesitate to admit.
