Chapter 112 (He Must Also Stay Awake) In My Heart I Am Fond of You, but You Are Not Aware

Far into the night, Zhao Yuan packed up everything and returned to the small room he rented temporarily. It was a village in the city, so there were no road lamps late at night. Zhao Yuan was in the darkness, and he couldn’t even see his hand.

At this moment, Zhao Yuan felt like that all the dormant pains on his body woke up. Burning pains radiated all over his body, especially on his knees. Strolling, he went each step with all his strength.

“I want to call Lin Wenxi again. Somehow, when such a big thing happened to my family and me, I even have spent more time in missing him than thinking of my father. At the thought of that boy’s smile, I felt my heart is full of strength at once. I want to do my best to guard all of this.”

“But what if I died in the boxing ring?”

Zhao Yuan suddenly understood that what he feared previously was not the death. Instead, he was afraid that he could never again see such a smile as brilliant as fireworks, look into such a pair of expressive eyes, and hug that warm body.

“Wenxi,” Zhao Yuan thought, “I miss you, too.”

“It seems that someone is following me.”

Zhao Yuan held his flashlight tight. He waited until the noise that someone made approached him. All of a sudden, he turned on the flashlight and shot the beam of light there. While Zhao Yuan sounded a scream of Chen Wanxin, he saw her turn pale with fear.

“Why are you here?” Zhao Yuan asked coldly.

“Do you think that I don’t know what the things you need to do?” Trying her best to stand firm, Chen Wanxin put down her hand that covered her eyes and said.

“What are the things that you have known?” asked Zhao Yuan.

“I don’t know the reason, but I know what you are going to do,” Chen Wanxin replied.

“I don’t need your help.” With this, Zhao Yuan handed the flashlight to Chen Wanxin and said to her, “Go back on your own.”

In a flash, a warm fuzzy feeling went through Chen Wanxin’s heart. She still did not want to leave after taking the flashlight. “I just, I just want to take a look at the place where you live.”

“It is too small to receive an honored guest like you.” Zhao Yuan refused.

“I, am I your honored guest?” Chen Wanxin asked with a smile.

At this moment, Zhao Yuan finally noticed that Chen Wanxin only wore a severely plain robe. The marten shawl usually around her neck was not there, and the scarlet leather gloves on her hands were gone, either. The shoes on her feet were the ordinary fluffy shoes girls wore for the winter. Under the light, her face looked simple and pure, but she looked more gracious in this natural style than in her noble lady posture in usual.

“What do you want to do?” asked Zhao Yuan.

“Zhao Yuan, I am still your nominal girlfriend, so of course I can enter your room. You can surely shut me out. But I will not leave even if I may freeze to death on the street!” While Chen Wanxin was speaking, she began to take off her coat.

Zhao Yuan knocked her hands away and buttoned up her coat. “Just go.”

“These are the best medicines for traumatic injuries. You can use them,” said Chen Wanxin.

“Thank you.”

Chen Wanxin began to unwrap the package, and then she squeezed out the ointment little by little. “Do you need me to take off your clothes? Since when did you also become a little girl?”

“No need.”

“You are afraid of me, are you? You feel sorry for me, so you refuse me thoroughly, right?” Chen Wanxin smiled coldly while looking at Zhao Yuan, motionless.

With a somber face, Zhao Yuan quickly took off the clothes on his upper body, rolled up his trousers and sat cross-legged on the bed.

From his cheeks to his forehead, neck, shoulders, back, thighs, calves, and knees, extravasated blood and bumps covered his whole body. And it was quite evident that these injuries had scarcely got repaired and treated.

The moment Chen Wanxin applied the white ointment to his forehead, Zhao Yuan still did not utter a sound and kept his icily cold look as if all the wounds on his body had nothing to do with him.

But Chen Wanxin murmured in her heart. “It hurts a lot, but why don’t you even frown a bit? At this very moment, I’d rather you cry out!”

A drop of tear fell on Zhao Yuan’s skin, ice-cold.

Zhao Yuan slightly frowned.

Chen Wanxin ground her teeth all the time until she covered all his wounds with the ointment. Then she could not restrain her tears anymore and burst into tears. But Zhao Yuan still sat cross-legged, unmoved. He just let the piercingly cold wind lift the edge of his coat and gnaw at his skin. In fact, Zhao Yuan enjoyed embracing the freezing cold in the middle of the night in winter.

“Zhao Yuan! I will not force you to do anything anymore, and I will never put pressure on you! I only hope that I can do something for you as your friend!” Chen Wanxin croaked and dropped down into the chair.

“I know that you never like me. I also know that all of this is only my wishful thinking. Just allow me to accompany you for a few days, okay?”

Zhao Yuan shook his head. “My business, you cannot handle.”

“I won’t deal with your business. You are a man of indomitable spirit, so you certainly can find a way to handle it! However, I will still do my best to help you! On this point, you also have no right to control me!” said Chen Wanxin.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Yuan looked up and happened to see the pair of clear eyes of Chen Wanxin. What kind of eyes did she have? Her eyes looked so calm and determined! Zhao Yuan couldn’t help but turn away his face.

The door closed. Zhao Yuan did not know when Chen Wanxin left.

Outside of the building, Chen Wanxin looked back at the windows of Zhao Yuan’s room, and thought, “Even the lights in his room look lonely and sad. At many nights that have passed, he must also stay awake!”

Her tears dripped down once again. “Zhao Yuan didn’t dare to look at my eyes because he was afraid that he might fall in love with me. Zhao Yuan, couldn’t you give me a chance to compete fairly with Lin Wenxi?”

Chen Wanxin stumbled around and no longer cared about how much mud was on her feet. She felt her way forward on the muddy path, leaving deep and shallow footprints behind. “In the darkness of the night, how did that man come back alone with wounds covering all over his body? How did he deal with the wounds by himself? And how did he go out early in the next morning, full of fighting spirit? But when he talked with Lin Wenxi on the phone, his voice sounded so soft and gentle...”

Chen Wanxin looked up at the dark merciless night, only feeling that she might not stop shedding her tears.

A beam of light came from her back, and the path under her feet suddenly became clear. Now, Chen Wanxin could see the whole way crystal clear, including the hollows, rocks, and mud on it.

Chen Wanxin stopped silently, raised her head to look at the sky, and her smile bloomed from her tears.

Lin Wenxi heard from Chen Wanxin that the progress of the match went on very rapidly. Last night, it was the quarterfinals. Tonight, it was the final four. The night after tomorrow would be the final match. He also knew that the opponent Zhao Yuan needed to confront in the final match would be the extremely horrifying Gold Champion who had won eighteen matches in a row. The Gold Champion had already killed one person. Hence, the latest deadline to stop Zhao Yuan from taking part in this match would be the day after tomorrow.

When Chen Wanxin mentioned a matter of life and death, the look on her seemed solemn but extremely calm, as if it was not something essential for her. Lin Wenxi immediately felt rather strange. “It seems that Chen Wanxin knows it for sure that I can successfully stop Zhao Yuan! Chen Wanxin, she must have known my background! I am afraid that her purpose cannot be that simple! But what else can I do?”

During the day, Lin Wenxi would chat with Zhao Yuan as long as he was free. But, when it was late at night, he usually felt too anxious to sleep.

Hong Yan, Hong Xuan’s daughter, had told him that Hong Xuan was very busy every day in the past two days, and Hong Xuan only mentioned that he would not go home to rest tomorrow night.

“Tomorrow night is the final match. I still have time,” Lin Wenxi thought.

After getting through another long day, Zhao Yuan seemed to be all right on the phone.

Initially, Lin Wenxi planned to invite Chen Wanxin to go with him, but Chen Wanxin told him that she had arrived in advance.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Wenxi took a taxi and set off immediately. He could no longer endure the pain of insomnia night after night. He also could not imagine the physical condition after Zhao Yuan went through the quarterfinals, the final four, and the semi-final. Lin Wenxi would feel a sharp pain every time he thought of it!
