824: She Will Be Waiting For Them

She Will Be Waiting For Them

Zhen-Zhen didn't know what she should feel after hearing that. Why did things turn out like this? She hugged Tristan, pressing her head on his body while crying.1

She wanted to wake him up. There were a lot of things they wanted to do after his proposal. They would gonna prepare for wedding.

"Tristan, wake up, hubby. You said we will design my wedding gown. You said you are excited to see me walking down the aisle while wearing my white dress."

Grandpa Lu, Andrew, and Tristan's parents couldn't help but feel sad for the couple. The doctor said Tristan's condition was not stable. He declared him to be in a coma but no one knew if Tristan could still recover. They needed that Miracle for Tristan to wake up.

This was the first time Dos encountered this kind of stab wound wherein it had a severe effect on someone. The two patients were slowly dying for some unknown reason.

He wanted to conduct more examinations and create a drug that would strengthen the patient's physical body. He could see this as a perfect subject for the experiment. As a genius scientist, he found a challenge. It was like a mystery he had to solve.

Meanwhile, when Zhen-Zhen finally calmed down, she remembered Liam. She wondered what happened to Liam.

"How about Liam? How is his condition?" Zhen-Zhen asked them, wiping her tears. She would feel guilty forever if something bad happened to Liam.

She felt indebted to him. She couldn't forgive herself if Liam died because of her. She knew that Liam did this for her. She truly appreciated his sacrifices.

While everyone was gathered in Tristan's room, Liam had no one. He was alone in the room.

"Your friend, he is more stable than Tristan but he is also in a coma right now," Grandpa Lu informed Zhen-Zhen. "Do you know someone who is related to him?"

Liam was not from this world. The only person who was closed to him was Leo. His friend Leo was not informed yet about what happened to Liam.

Zhen-Zhen informed Grandpa Lu about Leo.

"Grandpa, Mom, Dad… please stay here with Tristan. I will just go and see Liam," Zhen-Zhen stood up, still holding Tristan's hand. She was reluctant to leave Tristan but she had to check on Liam as well.

Zu Wan guided Zhen-Zhen as they went to the next room where Liam was. She didn't know how long her heart could bear to see the people close to her getting hurt because of her.

She was the target of the guardian warriors. But the people who got hurt were Tristan and Liam. Zhen-Zhen stepped forward, moving closer towards Liam's bed. Just like Tristan, he had a tube attached to his mouth and a monitor beside him.

Zu Wan just stay outside, giving Zhen-Zhen privacy. He would just be watching her at the back to make sure she would not collapse at any moment. He knew how hard it was for her to see Tristan and her friend Liam in this state.

Zu Wan's impression of Liam had improved. He didn't expect that Liam would sacrifice this much for Zhen-Zhen. He truly cared for her.

At first, Zu Wan hated Liam for hiding the truth that he was a guardian warrior. He was also a leader. And he doubted his loyalty and honesty. He thought Liam had ill-motive and just pretended to care about Zhen-Zhen.

Now Liam had proven to Zu Wan that he was wrong. Liam didn't mean any harm to Zhen-Zhen. He was always there for her, willing to help and support her.

He didn't hesitate to sacrifice his life just to save Tristan because Liam knew that Zhen-Zhen would be sad if something bad would happen to Tristan.

With this, Zu Wan began to admire Liam. He was different from those wicked and twisted guardian warriors. He was the only one who believed that Zhen-Zhen and her father were no longer a threat to the human race.

"Mr. guardian warrior, please stay alive. You can be a good friend to my daughter. I forgave you already for trying to hurt my daughter before and for hiding the truth from us." Zu Wan glanced at Zhen-Zhen and Liam.

Zhen-Zhen grabbed Liam's hand as her eyes lingered on his face. She was used to seeing Liam smiling at her. Now, he was there lying on a sickbed, looking so ill.

Though Liam was unconscious he felt so lonely a while ago as no one came to see him. He seemed to be waiting for someone to come… for Zhen-Zhen to come.

In the last moment, before he lost consciousness, Zhen-Zhen was the last person in his mind. He was more worried about her than himself.

Zhen-Zhen's presence could somehow give strength to Liam who was very weak right now. He was still blaming himself for what happened. Tristan would not get hurt if he just handled Mheera accordingly.

"Liam, please you have to stay alive. I don't know how I can thank you. I owe you… for helping Tristan. I-I… feel responsible for everything. I thought… I could protect the people close to me because I don't want people to get hurt again."

"I don't want to repeat what happened in the past… I saw my mother die and I was so helpless. So I promised that with my power I will protect the people close to me. But I failed again."

Zhen-Zhen's tears were falling from the corners of her eyes. She was gripping Liam's hand tightly as she wanted to give him strength by letting him know she was there by his side.

"You are a great friend to me. I am always happy and grateful that I met someone like you. Thank you for believing the good in me. Thank you for not judging me…"

"So please Liam… please stay alive. You have to be safe… please… do it for me. I can't lose you as well."

Zhen-Zhen leaned over as she kissed Liam on his forehead. She would always be forever grateful to Liam. 

"Please get well soon," Zhen-Zhen whispered in his ear. "I will be waiting for you and Tristan…"
