Chapter 319 - A Possibility That Yifeng Might Be Innocent

"Since I was still a baby, I have always known that I have two beautiful mothers and this always made me happy. Whether or not mummy is here, I am sure that my other mum will take perfect care of me so, stop crying for Mi Er's sake because seeing you in tears always makes me sad," Yang Mi said as she cleaned Yang Zi's tears with her tiny hands.

"Let's go to your room, baby," Yang Zi said, as she lifted Yang Mi and carried her to her room upstairs.

When she reached Yang Mi's room, she sat down on the couch with the little girl sitting on her lap. She patted the little girl until she fell asleep. After making sure that Yang Mi was sound asleep, she carried her to her bed.

"Mi Er, sister is so sorry for causing you to lose your mum at such a tender age. You wouldn't be going through this heartwrenching pain at such a tender age had I not fallen in love with the devil. I can't believe he stabbed me at the back at the time I least expected," Yang Zi said, as tears began to flow from her eyes.

"To get justice for mum, I should have killed him the night he dared to bury a bullet into mum's chest but I couldn't do it. I came to love him too much that I couldn't bear to kill him. I am so sorry for failing you and mum. I deserve death for doing such a thing...,"

"Zi Er, what nonsense are you telling the little girl?" Shui Shui who just entered the room and met Yang Zi lying beside Yang Mi on the bed said as she approached them.

"I was only saying the truth," Yang Zi said coldly, not standing up from the bed.

"Zi Er, come let's leave the room. Let's not wake our little Mi Er up. She has been having a hard time sleeping so let's not disrupt her sleep," Shui Shui said, as she beckoned Yang Zi to come with her.

Yang Zi reluctantly climbed out of the bed and followed Shui Shui outside the room. When Shui Shui opened the door, Shiyi was waiting for them. They all went to Yang Zi's room.

"Never in my wildest imagination did I think that Feng would do this to me. I never did anything bad to him so, why did he do this to my family? I have asked myself this question over a hundred times since the incident but I couldn't come up with an answer," Yang Zi said as she stared at Shui Shui opposite her.

"I should kill him to avenge my mum's unjust death but I can't do it. I love him way too much to hurt him. I hate myself for being such a coward....,"

"Zi Er, stop blaming yourself. The incident that happened was not your fault. You tried your best. It is his fault for being such a coward to take out his anger on a weak woman," Shiyi said sounding furious. 

Since the incident, he had punched Yifeng over ten times and even tried to get into a physical fight with him so many times. The fact that Yifeng still stalked Yang Zi despite what he did always enraged him. Each time he set eyes on Yifeng, he always lost his temper and this hatred for Yifeng affected his relationship with Wen Min.

"Zi Er, pardon me for what I want to say, ok," Shui Shui apologised in advance.

"Zi Er, are you sure that Feng killed Auntie? I mean he and Auntie were not only like mother-in-law and son-in-law but like best friends. They got along pretty well. As much as Auntie loved him, he also loved her too so I don't see any reason why he would want to suddenly kill Auntie," Shui Shui stated the thought which was always on her mind since the day Yang Zi said Yifeng killed her mum.

"He is just a demon. I am sure he did all those things not to only gain our trust but also to gain Auntie's trust. He was able to commit this sin towards Auntie because she trusted him," Shiyi said angrily.

"Shiyi, keep quiet and let Zi Er think," Shui Shui said.

"Zi Er, try to think about the scene you met back then. Even though you were in a state of rage back then, I am sure you can still recall the scene you met back then, right?" Shui Shui asked. Apart from Jin, she was the second person who believed that Yifeng was innocent despite the accusations made against him.

"When I entered the hall that night, I met Yifeng pointing a gun at her. Mum was lying on the floor in her pool of blood while Guangzhou was standing some distance away from him," Yang Zi relayed the incident with her eyes closed. Tears flowed from her eyes as she spoke.

Zi Er, I am sorry for bringing back memories you wanted to forget but we need to do this to know who actually committed this crime that Feng is taking the blame for.

Shui Shui thought as she quickly cleaned her tears that were attempting to fall.

"Apart from that, what else did you notice in the hall?" Shui Shui asked anxiously.

"Apart from the white dirty wall and the littered floor, I did not notice anything else," Yang Zi said with her eyes still closed.

"You might have missed some details so try and think harder Zi Er," Shui Shui urged, as she caressed Yang Zi's hand. Yang Zi forced herself to recall the incident she had been trying her best not to think about.

"Shui Shui, why are you putting Zi Er through this trouble? Can't you see that she is in tears? Remembering the incident...,"

"Can you not interfere? This concerns Zi Er's happiness so I suggest you stay out of it," Shui Shui who had not been on good terms with Shiyi said harshly.
