I alone am the Honoured One! - Chapter 14

Chapter 14: Confession?!
A few minutes ago-

Zhao Tian picked up his mobile phone and dialed Fei Ziyu’s number. Fei Ziyu also immediately responded to the call, “Tian?”

Zhao Tian asked, “Where are you now?” “Now I am near the restroom… I” She replied.

“Just stay there… I’ll be there in a minute,” Zhao Tian said, canceling the call. A sigh left Fei Ziyu’s lips and she went behind the restroom.

A little later, Zhao Tian reached there and asked looking at Fei Ziyu “What is this, Ziyu? Spreading fake photos?”

Fei Ziyu hastily shook her head clearing any accusation “I am not the one who created that fake photo… I don’t even know what happened. Someone has edited our photos and spread it.”

Zhao Tian frowned his brows. He was kinda sure that Fei Ziyu was the one who did this “Well anyway, we have to first clear the misunderstanding about us dating. I’ll tell them first and you should also inform them to clear the rumors. I will talk with the President about this.”

“No, Tian…” Fei Ziyu hastily stopped him. “Hm?” Zhao Tian raised an eyebrow. A faint blush adorned Fei Ziyu’s cheeks and her eyes were gentle “Why don’t we just…make the rumor true? I-I mean… I don’t mind dating you, no what I want to say is that I… I love you and like to date you.”

“So we can date for real and go out.”

Zhao Tian frowned when he heard this and said in an indifferent tone “Sorry, but I have to decline.” H-Huh? Fei Ziyu was stunned “Why? Tian? I am everything a man could wish for…I am beautiful, I am rich, and have a good body. You don’t even have to work. I’ll pamper you and…”

Zhao Tian nodded his head “I know, Ziyu but sorry…” Fei Ziyu’s eyes moistened in tears as she took a step forward clutching his hands “You know very well, Tian… I have been pursuing you since the first year. I have been following you like a dog for years so that you could see me and fall in love with me somehow.”

“B-But after these years, you still couldn’t find me attractive? Why? Tian? What am I lacking, why can’t you date me? What part of me is ugly?”

Zhao Tian got irritated seeing her being persistent and this shitty drama. *puff* She hugged him tightly “No, Tian.. I won’t let you go… I want you to love me back…”

Getting constantly frustrated by her actions, he pulled her arms retracting her from his body “Ziyu, try to understand… I am not really into you, sorry.” He spoke and let her go. Tears welled up in Fei Ziyu’s eyes and she ran away from there “I hate you…”

“Ah finally…”

Zhao Tian shook his head ‘I wonder if Ying’er heard the rumors..’ A heavy sigh slipped from his lips, as he made his way from the restroom. As he passed through, his gaze unconsciously swept through the door of the restroom.

Huh? Ying’er? She saw her coming out of the restroom, her right hand drenched in blood. “Ying’er?” He quickly rushed to her side and gently grasped her hand, asking “What happened?” blood was constantly dripping from her hand staining the floor.

Zhao Ying averted her gaze and spoke, “Nothing, I just slipped and fell in the bathroom and got injured.” Zhao Tian narrowed his eyes seeing her being indifferent. ‘Seems like she heard the rumors.”

“First, let’s go to the Infirmary and treat before you lose even more blood,” he spoke and thought of wrapping her hand with a cloth to prevent the blood loss. But he noticed tiny glass particles sticking to her skin, if he tied her hands now… it would cause infection so he hurriedly pulled her to the infirmary.

…

“Ouch!” Laying on the bed Zhao Ying winced in pain as the nurse meticulously cleaned the glass particles from her injured skin. After clearing them, she applied first aid wrapping her hand with bandages. “I have done what I can with first aid for now, but it would be advisable for you to seek further medical attention at the hospital.”

Zhao Tian gave a nod “Thank you.” With a nod, the nurse walked away. A sigh left his lips as he sat on the chair beside the bed “So, what really happened?” he asked frowning.

Zhao Ying gazed deeply into his eyes “I told you already, I slipped and fell in the bathroom and my hand got hit in the mirror and it broke tearing my skin. That’s all.” Zhao Tian smiled wryly in his mind ‘That’s not very convincing.’

Zhao Ying turned her gaze away and discreetly looked at him in the corner of her eyes “So what about your secret girlfriend? Now that everyone knows, you don’t have to hide it… I am okay now, go and spend time with her.”

Zhao Tian could only chuckle seeing her nonchalant attitude towards him as he felt it weird coming from his obsessed sister. Zhao Ying squinted her eyes “Why are you laughing, huh?”

Zhao Tian showed a small smile “Tell me Ying’er, do you think me, your brother would secretly date a woman without telling you? You don’t trust me?”

H-Huh? Zhao Ying’s heart wavered hearing this question and confusion filled her mind “I… B-But I saw you hugging that Fei Ziyu while she was crying in your arms. What are you gonna say about that? Huh?” she questioned back.

“Haha, so that’s how you got that injury. You got frustrated seeing that and hit the mirror to vent your frustration? Given your temper, I can see that happening…”

-_- Zhao Ying was dumbfounded seeing that he actually found out. “But that doesn’t answer my question. You and Fei Ziyu have been dating and you didn’t tell me a word.”

Zhao Tian shook his head leaning back on the chair “I am heartbroken Ying’er, to think that you would believe a photo and that woman hugging me to think that we are actually dating. So you really don’t trust me… hm?”

U-Um… Zhao Ying’s heart trembled and she clutched her head thinking about the situation. In the fit of the moment because of her unstable emotions, she came to the nonsense conclusion… but now thinking about it ‘Why would he hide it from me? And he also clearly said that he doesn’t like Fei Ziyu…’

‘Urgh, he is my brother.. why I didn’t believe him? I should have known about him more than anyone… I am a total idiot.’

She looked at Zhao Tian and saw the gentle curve of his lips forming a teasing smile looking at her “S-Sorry, Tian’er.. I just jumped to the conclusion. I am just overwhelmed that you hid a high thing like this from me and…”

Zhao Tian stood up and sat near her on the bed. “Ying’er.” With a gentle touch, he lovingly ran his fingers through her hair, speaking softly. Zhao Ying’s eyes softened in affection as she saw him pampering her.

She opened her arms to hug him tightly “Ouchhhh!” but as she moved her right arm, she felt a stinging pain from the injury. “Urghh! I did all of this for nothing.” she bitterly lamented and regretted her act of hitting the mirror.

“You really overreacted…” Zhao Tian spoke, softly taking her bandaged palm in his hand. “How am I gonna explain this to Mom?” a wry smile appeared on Zhao Ying’s face.

But then she remembered something “Tian’er, why was she crying in your arms then?” Zhao Tian spoke “Oh? She just confessed her love to me and I rejected her. So she was crying nothing big.”

“O-Oh…” Zhao Ying blinked her eyes perplexed as he casually said rejecting THE Fei Ziyu whom everyone admires and fawns over in this University

A great sense of relief flooded her heart, as if a weight had been lifted off her chest, for a moment she thought her brother would get stolen away from her. She leaned on his shoulder closing her eyes, surrendering to the warmth and comfort in his presence.

Meanwhile, Zhao Tian had other thoughts ‘Shenyi said there is also Alchemy. So are there healing pills or something like that to heal injuries faster?’

…

Zhao Tian is sitting on the couch sipping his coffee, as he continues scrolling through his mobile phone. He turned his attention and saw his Mom lecturing Zhao Ying for being so clumsy and injuring her hand.

He laughed in his mind seeing Zhao Ying looking a her Mom with puppy eyes while being scolded.

At this time, he received a call and answered it “Old man.” Li Jie said, “Tian, the photo was edited by someone and has spread it in the college group chats.”

“Can you find who is the first one to send it?” Zhao Tian asked and Li Jie nodded “Yeah, it is one of Fei Ziyu’s friends in class.”

“As I thought, she is the one who created false rumors and even fake photos… Did she really think that if she spread fake rumors, I would accept her to manage my reputation in the college or something?”

Li Ji sighed “I don’t know what’s going on in her mind.” Zhao Tian chuckled in response “Yeah, well… and Oldman, spread the evidence that the photo is edited to the group chats and dismiss the rumors.”

“I’ll check on that Tian.”

“Hm. Thank you old man.” *click*

“Urgh.. it’s really tiring to listen to Mom’s lectures.” Zhao Ying walked to him with a weary sigh. *puff* She fell on the couch, placing her head on his lap “Did you find who edited that photo,”

Zhao Tian nodded sipping his coffee “Yeah, it’s Fei Ziyu…” “I know it’s that bitch who is behind all of this.”

“She really wanted your attention and love. Why is she even obsessed with you? That damn woman? Hmph.”

…

At the dinner table~

Zhao Suyin wryly shook her head seeing the scene in front of her “You should stop being so clingy to each other. You guys are not children anymore.”

Zhao Ying sitting on Zhao Tian’s lap giggled playfully “What can I do Mom? My hand is injured and I can’t eat my food. So I am asking my cute brother to feed me… Tian’er, give me that.”

Zhao Tian smiled softly and took a spoonful of food feed her. *num* *num* Zhao Ying had a bright smile on her face enjoying the food nestling on his lap.————————————–
