Chapter 145 - War and Fears (2/2)
Ying Sheng chuckled hysterically as tears broke out then laughter.
”I can't…. can't do this anymore.”
Suddenly Ying Sheng felt herself being engulfed in a hug.
Ying Sheng felt a lump in her throat. She has never told anyone this. Not even the therepist Lei Zhao hired for her. But for some reason she told Liam.
”Shss.. it's okay. You don't have to be strong everyday. If you want to cry just cry. If you want to scream don't let anything hold you back. I will lean you my shoulders to cry on.”
And just like that she screamed with all her might. Her tears flowed down her face like a river escaping a dam. The only time she would stop was to breath.
Liam had no idea how long he held her but when the worst of the crying was over, he pulled her away and looked in her eyes.
”You don't have to fight the war alone. Not anymore. Even the strongest commander or leader doesn't win a war alone. It's the soliders that win the war; together as a team.”
Ying Sheng blinked in confusion.
”I promised you, I wouldn't let anyone hurt you. If you think you're losing the war just call me please.”
Ying Sheng searched his eyes if he was saying the truth and she chuckled, ”Cutie, if you act like this I would fall in love with you. Trust me I get attached easily. ” She said sarcastically.
If it was any other day, Liam's heart would have skipped a beat but he knew she was joking.
”Also, they all said the same thing, why should I believe you?”
Ying Sheng asked, her voice cracking as she looked at him with pained eyes.
”Friends are always there for each other. Just….give me a chance.”
Liam waited for her reply. He knew loneliness has been her companion for a long time so it would be hard to let someone in.
Ying Sheng smiled and nodded, ”Alright, Cutie.”
Liam smiled, ” I will always be there for you, Baddie. I will be there to lean you my shoulder. I will be there to catch you never letting you go. You don't have to be alone.”
Ying Sheng snorted. ”Make sure you don't run away.”
Liam chuckled and shook his head, ”Never, so get used to me.”
He wiped the tears on her face with his hands.
”Ready to go home?” Liam asked Ying Sheng.
”Yes, let's go.” Liam smiled and nodded.
”I will go and check out.”
The moment Liam left, Ying Sheng took a deep breath. It was really nice to have a friend who is always there for you.
Suddenly, her phone rang snapping her out of her thoughts.
”Miss. Ying, good morning. I'm calling to remind you of your photo shoot tommorow.”
A woman's voice sounded the moment Ying Sheng picked up the call.
”Alright, thanks.”
Ying Sheng hung up and took a deep breath.
'New beginning.'
