Chapter 332 Persevere Till the End
Hearing that, Tang Xia was shocked. At this moment, when she looked at Ye Yifan’s back view, she felt the tip of her nose tingling. Although the man in front of her was always supporting her from the back, he had slowly learned to stand in front of her and shield her from the wind and rain.
But it was a little too late. When she liked him, he did not grasp onto it. When Chu Tiankuo appeared, he inadvertently invaded into her heart.
Tang Xia stopped her footsteps slowly. Ye Yifan, who was holding onto her hand and moving forward, suddenly froze. He looked back in confusion. He saw Tang Xia lowering her head. However, he could feel that she seemed to be sobbing.
“What’s wrong? Are you…unhappy because I hacked the system?” Ye Yifan could not help feeling anxious. After all, it was his first time doing something illegal. After all, he grew up in a strict family and had never done anything like that before.
Tang Xia remained silent for some time. She slowly raised her head and suddenly smiled. There was still a teardrop hanging at the corner of her lips. It shone extra bright under the sunlight. “Thank you, Ye Yifan.”
Ever since Chu Tiankuo disappeared without a trace, he had not seen a smile on Tang Xia’s face in a long time. It was like the first dew after a rainfall, gently dripping into his soft heart.
Ye Yifan also blushed a little. He took Tang Xia’s hand and wanted to start walking again. However, Tang Xia still did not move. When he turned around, he found Tang Xia frowning at him, as if she was facing contemplation.
“You have already done a lot for me. From the beginning till the end, you have been helping me unconditionally. I am already very happy that you can do something out of your league such as hacking into the system. Now, let me find him on my own.” Then, she smiled and tried to break free of his hand that was clenching onto hers.
However, Ye Yifan was very unhappy. He said in a lowered voice, “I’ll be very worried if you go alone. Besides, I’ve already accompanied you for so long, I don’t care about this one time.”
However, Tang Xia was still full of contemplations. She still wanted to break free from his hand. “But I’ve already owed you enough. If we continue like this, this lifetime is not enough for me to pay you back.”
Suddenly, Tang Xia lifted her head and both their gazes collided mid-air. Ye Yifan could not help feeling surprised. He did not think that Tang Xia would be so serious. She said solemnly, “So let me go. I have nothing now, I can’t give you anything.”
Her heart had especially been given to someone else a long time before.
Ye Yifan seemed to know what she was referring. After a few moments of silence, he suddenly broke into a clean smile that felt like the clear breeze in the mountains. “Don’t worry. Perhaps I was after something at the start, but after Chu Tiankuo appeared, I had watched how you were taken away by him bit by bit.”
He slowly let go of his hand and gently grabbed her by her shoulders. In both of their gazes, there seemed to be only one other. He said in a serious tone, “So I’m very certain that I can’t have you back anymore. I’m not asking for anything in return, just let me accompany you. At least right now, when you’re the saddest and vulnerable, keep me by your side.”
Tang Xia felt as some pain in her heart as if it was being pierced by something. It was just like a nail. When stabbed into her heart, it was painful yet unforgettable. At that moment when it was taken out, it had to leave a hole in her heart.
Or perhaps it was Ye Yifan.
She could not help but lowered her gaze slightly. Her dark eyes seemed to be covered with mist. It was so unclear that no one could tell what she was thinking. After an unknown period of time, she sighed helplessly, “Alright then.”Read More chapter on our vi pnovel. com
She still could not win Ye Yifan. Since that was the case, then let him do what he wants.
Ye Yifan instantly became cheerful. He took her hand and they started their aimless search once again. They place where they could search was still in the world that they met Chu Tiankuo each time.
Although they have been searching perseveringly, no matter how long they searched, there was still no news or traces of Chu Tiankuo. It was as if he had disappeared without a trace.
Tang Xia carried her heavy footsteps and looked around her surrounding environment. They have already reached the previous Vampires’ Castle. Although all the decorations and displays here were still the same, it was missing the castle’s owner.
She slowly walked up the stairs. Perhaps this was where Chu Tiankuo became completely imprinted in her heart. When she walked to where the ball was held in the last competition, she could not help slowing down her footsteps.
Ye Yifan also became silent. This place seemed to be the turning point of everything. From here onwards, everything started to become unexpected. Tang Xia’s life was also ruined since then.
“Chu Tiankuo…” She still clearly remembered Chu Tiankuo’s gentle gaze and the tint of devastation in his eyes when he sent her out of the game.
Suddenly, Tang Xia felt her body becoming weak. She then stumbled and fell onto the ground directly. The cold marble felt bitter cold, just like her emotions at this point in time.
Ye Yifan ran towards her quickly. He tried to help her stand up and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong! Are you okay?” His gaze focused on her gradually weakening gaze and his heart could not help dropping.
“You can’t go on searching like this. We have been searching for so many days, your body can’t handle it! Quickly get up, we will log out now. Let me take you out for a good meal.” Then, he tried to pull her up.
However, Tang Xia shook her head and broke free from his grip. She struggled to get up. “No, I don’t want it. I’ll keep looking!” Then, she supported herself against the ground and slowly climbed up. However, she almost fell because of physical exhaustion.
Seeing this, Ye Yifan quickly came over to support her. He could not help but scold her, “Why are you trying to push it! Is this the time to be like this? You can’t even stand, yet you still want to look for Chu Tiankuo?”
While saying so, he tried to pull her to force her out of the system. However, he had to stop because she was rejecting it so profusely. Ye Yifan was feeling helpless. He could only soften his tone and said, “Since that’s the case, can I do the searching instead? You go back home, have a good rest, get some food and then come back to continue searching, okay?”
However, what he said was of no use. Tang Xia could not hear it in at all. She shook her head violently and continued walking forward. She said in a weak voice, “No, I have to find him myself. Chu Tiankuo must be waiting for me somewhere. He must be waiting for me!”
Suddenly, all that came to her mind was the dream she had in the hospital that day. He looked at her so tenderly and gently touched her cheek.
“Wait for me.”Read More chapter on our vi pnovel. com
Tang Xia could not forget those two words. It was just like a vow with magic power. It always caused her to believe in it, even though it was just a dream.
Ye Yifan looked at her stubborn back view and became silent for a while. He also knew that he could never change her mind on what she was set on doing. Eventually, he still gave in. He supported her by his side and the duo continued to search in all the worlds.
However, even though both of them searched through all the worlds, they still could not find any clues left by Chu Tiankuo. Looking at the novel world created by the system, Tang Xia was suddenly lost.
This world so perfect, yet it was so big. It was so real that she could not differentiate between real and fake, so real that she could not find him.
Looking up at the sun in this world, it was dazzling to the eye. Suddenly, she felt like she could not hear any sound and her body was starting to lose intuition gradually. Looking at Ye Yifan in front of her, she felt as if she had fallen in his arms. She looked at him seemingly frantically calling out her name, yet she could not hear anything. This went on until her vision was gradually swallowed by darkness.
When Tang Xia woke up again, she was awakened by a series of knocks on the door. Tang Xia struggled to open her eyes. She looked around in confusion. Staring at the pale ceiling, her tears could not help but roll out of her eyes.
She could not help but lifted her arms until they appeared in her vision. She could not even find him and yet she had fainted due to her incapable body. The knocking on the door became louder, as if the person was going to barge in.
Tang Xia dragged her weak body and stood up slowly. Supporting herself against the wall, she slowly walked to the door and opened it. Tang Xia was forced to exit the system after she fainted. After logging out of the system frantically, Ye Yifan dashed to her house right away.
However, after knocking on the door for a long time, it still did not open. At that moment, he could not help but panic. He almost wanted to knock down her door. When Tang Xia opened the door, he almost fell over.
Ye Yifan regained his balance and quickly turned to look at Tang Xia who was supporting herself against the wall. Seeing her pale and cracked lips and the cold sweat on her forehead, his heart fell and he quickly stopped her up and placed her onto the sofa.
Tang Xia let out a shriek in surprise. She felt her world spinning. “What are you doing!” Although Tang Xia shouted it out, it was a weak whine in Ye Yifan’s ear.
After putting her down, he directly turned to the kitchen and poured her a glass of ice water. Fortunately, there were still some vegetables he had bought for her. He took them out and started to make a simple egg fried rice for her. This was the only thing he knew how to make.
Tang Xia received the ice water and gulped it down. Indeed, her body was starting to fail to hold it in. She could not fight back her sleepiness. Soon, when Ye Yifan walked towards her with the fried rice, he saw her soundly asleep.
However, Ye Yifan could not tell whether she had fainted or fell asleep and quickly woke her up. Tang Xia saw an anxious Ye Yifan in her blurry gaze and slowly opened her eyes. “Eat this before you sleep, otherwise you might just pass out in your sleep.”
Then, he handed her the rice. Tang Xia received it in silence and said weakly, “Thank you.” Then, she started to devour it one mouthful after another.
