Trial Of Love Chapter 320 - Playing The Supporting Character

Back in the studio, Elizabeth was still facing her awkward situation with Feng Xiaotong. It was the first time she saw such a cold side of the man. He was always the type of person whom you called, "Happy go lucky". But right now, the person in front of her has also changed into a whole different person.

'I never thought Xiaotong to have such a cold side as well. I've always thought he'll be those bright and sunshine all the time. But, what was he thinking? Engaged? I would rather be this b*stard girlfriend than announce and engagement with Xiaotong. This is even harder to solve.'

Feng Xiaotong repeated his words when the man did not answer him, "Can you stop wasting everyone's time and tell me, how much do you want?"

The man shook his head for he dare not even ask for such a price. His life was at stake already, what's the point of money. "Master Feng, please just spare me and let me leave. I promise, I'll never show my face in front of you again."

"You're not listening to me, tell me, once and for all, how much do you want?" Feng Xiaotong's expression turned even more colder. His eyes were so dark as if they can see through your soul, like the Grim Reaper himself was standing in front of you.

The man couldn't control himself anymore and ended up wetting himself. The Young Master of the Feng who was known to be such a charming swan has suddenly turned into a vicious eagle. His eyes were sharp and was on the hunt to kill its prey.

"Eww, the man just wets himself, and yet he declared to be Li Zi's boyfriend. What a joke!"

"Hha, what was he thinking even to step forward and act so proud of being Li Zi's fake boyfriend."

In the end, the production crew intervened since they've already waste quite some time already. The security hesitantly approached the man wondering if they can talk him away already seeing Feng Xiaotong seems to be not done with him yet.

"President Feng, can we take him away?"

Elizabeth sensed the antagonistic aura Feng Xiaotong was emitting. She grabs hold of his arms and answered for him. "Please, take him away. Xiaotong, let's go."

She dragged the man out of the set causing quite a commotion to the onlookers. They were all in a buzz wondering where the two went and what they could be discussing with each other.

Elizabeth found a secluded place for her and Feng Xiaotong to talk about their current situation. "Do you know what you have done?"

"Don't worry, it's not like people will take us serious. I mean, think about it... Isn't this a good way to get rid of that b*stard."

The b*stard Feng Xiaotong was referring to was Jayden Stanford. Despite he too hates Huang Ming, he realized after their conversation that the man could be worthy to stand next to the girl's side.

"But, Xiaotong, you know who I am and you know what you've done right? My family... They'll..."

"They'll surely wish for you to be with me instead of Shen. I know, I already expected you to say that." Feng Xiaotong placed his hand on the girl's cheeks to comfort her. "But don't worry, I won't force you to marry me when your heart belongs to someone else."

"I-" Elizabeth couldn't answer back immediately. For honestly, she doesn't know her own feelings anymore. She loves Shen because of the time they spent with each other. But, if Feng Xiaotong never gave up on her, she might have liked him as well.

"Xiaotong, you do know that such marriage is normal in our family."

"Of course, I am Imperial City most richest heir. Only those on top are compatible with you. But since your family does not care about such status, of course, they'll only worry about the person's background. And right now, Shen is out of the list..."

"So, if our family does push for such engagement will you agree?" Elizabeth curiously asked.

"What do you think?" Feng Xiaotong returned the question for her to answer. For the answer was quite simple.

"Of course you would, if its for the sake of the family. Plus, you..." Elizabeth couldn't continue for she felt embrace to say that the man has feelings for her.

"Because I like you too. But, I gave up already... I already told you I'll be playing the supporting character. I'll be here no matter what." Feng Xiaotong wrapped his arms around the girl and pulled her to his embrace. "Li Zi, don't think too much about things. For now, focus on your dreams and what you wish to achieve. I'll help you, just trust me. I know trust is something hard for you to accept. But, didn't you always ask everyone to trust you. Maybe this time, it's time for you to trust us."

"Xiaotong..."

"Li Zi, in life one can't go on alone. You always need someone by your side. Since Shen is unable to protect you as he promised. Then, I'm taking my role back and protect you. I can't let anything happen to you nor will I stand back and watch you cry again. Li Zi, I'm not asking you for anything. Just like Huang Ming, just be you and trust me. I did like you for whom you are didn't I. Didn't you said on our first day, you wish someone to love you for who you are. And here I am, I just hope you can too. But I know, it's too late..."

"I..."

"It's fine, don't worry about it. Just focus on your career and dreams like I said. All I want is to protect you. I don't want to see you suffering because of other people. By my side, no one will dare do such tricks again."

Elizabeth realized what Feng Xiaotong meant. For it's not the first time a fake person came into her life. With Feng Xiaotong announcing her as his fiance means no one would dare slander her and even do such repulsive acts again.

"Xiaotong, thank you. For everything... I mean, you were always the one there for me. Every time when I'm at my lowest, somehow you're always there at the right time." She smiled as she realized almost all the time when she so broken and about to reach the deep abyss. Feng Xiaotong strangely appears and lifts her back up on her feet.

"What did I tell you, I'm the supporting character, wasn't I? Of course, I'll always find a way to help you shine once again." Feng Xiaotong chuckled as he released the girl to look at her.

Elizabeth smiled back and saw the warmth in the man's eye.

"You better call your family to explain. I fear, your father might do something to my father's company and I don't have the energy to explain to my father." Feng Xiaotong said sarcastically whilst scratching his head in worries.

"Don't worry, I'll call them right now."

Both of them headed back to the dressing room to get the girl's phone. Liying stood quietly by the corner still in a daze from the shock she just received. She wishes to know if the engagement is true or not. She is both happy and sad at the same time. She always thought that the girl would either choice Yun Shen or Huang Ming.

"I wonder when Sis Li Zi and President Feng started dating each other." Liying muttered to herself.

Elizabeth's call finally went through as she gathered herself together to explain what just happened, "Mother, are you home? Did you..."

"We already know, don't worry... I someone guessed Young Xiaotong only did that in order to clear your name and for you not to reveal who you are. I've explained to your Grandfather. But, you must bring Xiaotong home. Father is very upset with his declaration of you being his fiance. The fact that both of you need to continue with the act in order to save your name." Lady Zhao responded with a heavy sigh.

"Mother, I'm sorry... I'll tell President Feng about Grandpa's request."

"Very well, take care then." Lady Zhao ended the call.

Feng Xiaotong approached the girl curiously, "So?"

"Grandpa wishes to meet you." Elizabeth worriedly announced.

"Oh?"

Cold sweat dripped down Feng Xiaotong's back. He unconsciously swerved his eyes around the room looking for the proper word to respond to what the girl just said, but he couldn't find the right words and ended up smiling only.
