Yichan has never seen yumi like this, she was always quiet and calm. but right now she is shaking like a leaf and her eyes were filled with panic.
"okay, just answer me this. did you see Xu Hao entering this restaurant with someone else? do you wanna go meet them?"- he asked.
Yumi frantically nodded her head multiple times. "okay give me 5 minutes." - saying this he took out his phone and dialed a number.
5 minutes later, the staff who were stopping Yumi enter the restaurant, came to them and said, "Sorry madam, sorry sir. I didn't know who you were. Here, 2809 is the private room number of the couple you just saw," - saying this he handed over a card to Yumi to access the lift.
"Couple?" - who was that with Xu Hao that made yumi go into the panic mode like this? - thought Yichan.
When Yumi got the number of the private room and the key card she started walking inside. Yichan followed her, "yumi, stop, I am coming with you." - he said.
It was almost midnight, and this high end restaurant was still packed with people and very noisy.
on the second floor, infront of the room 2809, Yumi was fisting her hands and struggling to knock on it or open it. she seemed too nervous to and conflicted and scared to find out what was going inside the room.
seeing this, Yichan pulled her behind him and stood in front of the door and turned to her.
"whatever it is, now that you are here, look at it yourself and don't worry about anything else, I am here with you okay?" - he assured her.
when yumi still didn't look at him, he placed his fingers under her chin and raised her head, "Yumi, I need you to be okay. whatever it is inside the room, you have me here with you. No matter what happens, that doesn't change okay?"
looking at him, she took and deep breath and nodded at him. seeing her nod, Zhang Yichan turned to the door, knocked on it twice and waited for the other person to open the door.
Yumi's heart was beating so loud, that Yichan could hear it.
After a few seconds, a woman who was recognised by both of them opened the door.
Huang Yue who opened the door was shocked to see Zhang Yichan and Chen Yumi. by the time she came to her senses and was ready to close the door, a voice came from behind.
" YueYue, who is it?" - asked a woman who sat on a man's lap intimately.
Zhang Yichan, who had no idea when Yumi wanted to come to this private room, had his mind blown.
Anyone present there, could tell what was happening. if they couldn't tell by the atmosphere, they can easily tell by the look on Huang Yue.
Chen Manting who asked Huang Yue a question furrowed her eyebrows when she hasn't gotten a reply from her.
Because Huang Yue tried to close the door half way and stood in front of the people, Chen Manting couldn't see who knocked on the door.
"why aren't you answering----" - she couldn't finish his sentence Yichan pushed the door open completely which made Huang sue stumble back and Chen Manting could see the people who were standing at the door.
her eyes widened in shock and she started to get up from the Man's lap.
Noticing Chen Manting action the Man who was holding her waist while she was sitting on his lap looked up two find two pair of eyes looking at him. his heart shook. there were so many things running in his head.
He clearly didn't expect Chen Yumi to come.
he called yumi in the evening. Only when he knew that she was out with her friends drinking, did he come out and meet Chen Manting in the open.
But now he was caught.
"yumi-- why are you here?" Xu Hao shuttered.
Zhang Yichan who was beside Yumi, Scoffed at Xu Hao and replied in a cold tone, "Shouldn't you be the one to answer that question?"
Looking at Yumi, who was standing stiff without any emotion, Xu Hao Panicked, "Yumi, yumi listen to me. please let me explain" - he said pushing Chen Manting aside and marching towards Chen Yumi trying to hold her hand.
Yumi who saw him coming closer, reacted quickly. before he could come closer to her, she started running away.
Yichan who saw Yumi run, took on last look at Xu Hao and ran after her.
Xu Hao who was about to run after them, got pulled back by Chen Manting. when he turned towards her, she lowered her head and apologised. "Brother Hao, I am sorry. Sister must be heart broken and it's all because of me. "- Chen Manting said with tears in her eyes.
"If I hadn't fallen for you ---" she lowered her head and sniffled looking pitiful.
Looking at her, the men present in the room felt like protecting her. Xu Hao was no different.
He immediately pulled her into his arms and hugged her while saying comforting words.
Trying to console Chen Manting's, Xu Hao didn't go after Chen Yumi.
Yichan caught up with Chen Yumi who was running down the stairs. holding her hand he stopped her. when she started struggling to get free from him, he pulled her close and spoke to her in concern, "Yumi, please stop running, you might hurt yourself. let's go to the car okay? if you dont want to be here, I will take you somewhere else."
hearing his words, Yumi stopped struggling, Yichan pulled her to the car, made her sit in the car and drove off.
through out the drive, no one spoke a word. Chen Yumi sat in the car and kept looking outside. Yichan would look at her from time to time. he wanted to start a conversation with her, but he didn't know what to say.
he never expected Xu Hao to do something like this.
