396 In love with a fugitive

The Marshal who had never seen his son being cuddled like that was extremely livid. He took a step forward and wanted to grab his drowsy son before his reputation gets flushed down the toilet.

But before he could touch the back of his son’s collar Zi Han looked up his eyes a blazing inferno. It was as though if he dared touch Yi Chen something very bad would happen. Zi Han was very much afraid of the Marshal but at this moment he wouldn’t mind burning bridges.

Seeing this the Marshal snorted coldly but he still took a step back.

“I will give you two minutes...,” he said and Zi Han looked down at his lover who was staring at him blurry-eyed.

He wiped the tear from the corner of Yi Chen’s eye with a pained smile on his face. Zi Han didn’t know what to say to him. He knew that they should have been more careful but at that moment nothing seemed to matter. They were just happy to be together and now they were paying the price.

“I am sorry... baby, I am so sorry,” whispered Yi Chen his vision blurred and his speech turning sluggish.

“You don’t have to apologize,” whispered Zi Han while pushing back the strands of hair blocking Yi Chen’s face.

“I love you,” whispered Zi Han and Yi Chen tried to respond but the drug had already subdued him. He couldn’t speak anymore. What his brain was telling him to say wasn’t exactly what was coming out of his mouth. He could no longer keep his eyes open. The fingers clutching the jacket Zi Han was wearing loosened as his eyes finally gave in.

“Take him away,” said the Marshal speaking to the men who dared not intervene after Zi Han swept them away with a force so powerful that it almost sucked their mental power dry.

.....

The men hesitated for a moment. They didn’t want to offend the Marshal but they were also weary of this person.

“Hurry up!” yelled the Marshal having sensed their hesitation. The men apologized before trying to take Yi Chen away but Zi Han tightened his grip and moved away slightly refusing to let go of his lover.

Seeing this the Marshal glared at Zi Han while saying, “You are as stubborn as your mother. I thought after our discussion last time you would behave yourself and stay away from my son but no... you met up with him at a bar your organization frequents and now everybody knows your secret. Everybody knows my son’s secret... They all know he had an inappropriate relationship with a fugitive,” said the Marshal the fierceness from before replaced by a look like that of a distraught father.

“That’s it... he is ruined. There is absolutely no way he can come back from this. He is now an accomplice to the crime. Hahaha... I failed. I failed as a father,” said the Marshal and Zi Han pursed his lips looking at the love of his life.

His lips trembled involuntarily with the pain in his heart surging. He knew the right thing to do but he couldn’t bare letting go of Yi Chen. It hurt so much but knowing the trouble this date had brought Zi Han couldn’t help but feel bad.

“I never meant for this to happen,” whispered Zi Han as his grip on Yi Chen loosened. Seeing this the men took advantage and took Yi Chen away before Zi Han changed his mind.

As they took him away Zi Han wiped the tear from the corner of his eye while saying, “Just don’t punish him anymore.”

The Marshal didn’t even look at Zi Han. He simply stared into the distance and said, “As long as you don’t appear in front of him I will make it easier for him and your family.”

Zi Han subtly nodded his head before turning to get inside the hovercar and grab his little Nim Nim. His expression appeared solemn but in truth, he wasn’t letting go of Yi Chen. He said the words break up once and the pain in his chest was extremely excruciating that he thought he was going to die.

Zi Han placed the little guy on his shoulders before taking out Mr. Twiggles. He wanted to leave it with Yi Chen as a way to send a message. It was a silent way of saying you are still mine without saying a word.

After leaving Mr Twiggels somewhere Yi Chen would be able to find it, Zi Han came out of the hovercar intending to leave.

As he took a step away from the group of men, Marshal Yi warned him again, “I mean it. I am very serious about this... If this trouble brings down my family, I will bring the Bloodgarde down with me. Do you understand?”

Zi Han didn’t bother responding. He just fixed Yi Chen’s jacket on his body before walking away.

The Marshal, “...”

Whether his threat fell on deaf ears or not was yet to be determined.

Because he needed to do some serious damage control he could only leave soon after. He was on a mission to clear his son’s name and undo what they had ruined which proved to be very difficult to do. The evidence against him was just so damning.

The video was top quality and the action of kissing caught in 4k was anything but ambiguous. They were truly eating each other’s faces off.

Yi Chen on the other hand knew nothing of this. His father had isolated him from the rest of the world making him practice night and day free from outside influence. He wouldn’t even let him come out and defend himself. Knowing his son’s state of mind he would directly profess his love for Zi Han there and then.

Zi Han on the other hand expected his mother to yell at him or something but she had on an ‘I should have known’ look on her face. Her son was just like her husband. He would never get over someone that easily.

Zi Feiji on the other hand felt regretful. Raya was doomed to fail. His grandson was already addicted to the drug called Yi Chen. It would be a miracle if he would ever date anyone else in the future.

Thus Onyx federation’s number one couple was torn from each other but each time Zi Han looked at that watch he would smile slightly and each time Yi Chen looked at Mr Twiggles, he would pull at its fin with a glowing smile. They might be apart but they were connected by an unbreakable red string of fate in hopes that one day they would be together again without obstacles.

THE END...

AN: I am kidding. Ahahahahaha (evil laugh) See you in the comments.
