Because I simply love you

Chapter 516: Sabotage

"Oh, there is Yukito!"

Yu Ichika excitedly waved her hand.

Yukira sighed. "Mom. He cannot hear you."

"Shut up!"

Nana and Jinhai chuckled. Along with the kids, they came today to watch the show personally.

Yu Ichika felt proud. "Look, so many people are cheering for him. My son has grown a lot"

She felt emotional.

Nuo asked, "Why is Grandma crying?"

Nana said, "They are tears of happiness."

"Yoy cwy when you are happy?"

She laughed. "It does happen sometimes."

Jian, Nian, and Jun were busy concentrating on the show while Jing was just like Yu Ichika, almost hopping in his seat in excitement.

His gaze was glued onto Yukito the whole time.

Jinhai chuckled. "Save your excitement when Yukito wins the show, lil bro."

Jing grinned. "Hehe~~"

The initial stages of the competition quickly weeded out the numerous models. In every stage, everybody talked about only either Yukito or Huang Minzhe.

"Wow, Yukito looks so different!"

"Gosh, he looks even more dashing than before!"

"He must have trained so hard."

Wang Ling was also quietly watching the show, and even though she was supposed to root for Huang Minzhe, her eyes frequently darted towards Yukito.

Only five finalists left after a series of stages, and the time came for the second last stage.

The ramp walk.

Huang Minzhe sneered.

Now time for you to make a fool out of yourself, Yukito's

Ten minutes back.

A man from the staff quietly slipped out of Yukito's room after doing his touchup. He then met Huang Minzhe and said, "It is done."

"You have placed the pin correctly, right?"

He said, "Yes, sir. Once the pin stabs Yukito's feet, he wouldn't be able to walk at all. It would be impossible to continue walking with pin pierced."

Huang Minzhe took a wad of cash. "Good job. Remember. Not a word about it to anyone."

At present, Huang Minzhe was waiting for Yukito to stumble.

Huang Minzhe's ramp walk was already done, and now everybody was pumped up to see Yukito's performance.

At the backstage, Yukito took a deep breath.

"Good luck, Yukito!" Yang Tian patted on his shoulder.

"Thanks."

He looked towards the stage.

I have come this far. I will not lose at this stage. I will definitely win this for Jing!

He stepped his foot on the stage, and instantly, the crowd roared into loud cheers.

"Yukito!"

"I love you, Yukito!"

"Do your best! You will surely win this competition!"

"We are all with you!"

Adorning a royal robe as the theme, he started gracefully walking on the stage as he lifted his robe.

He walked a few steps when suddenly a sharp pain jolted in his right foot.

Fortunately, he had to stop for a few moments before the crowd and then go back for another round.

What is this pain? It feels as if something pierced my skin. But what?

A needle? A pin? How did it get in my sandals?

WaitHuang Minzhe?

Apart from him, nobody else came to his mind.

He gazed straight at him that Huang Minzhe felt the chills. His expression was impassive and plain, but his aura suddenly oozed iciness.

Huang Minzhe's smile slightly faltered, but nobody seemed to notice it.

It couldn't be that he suspects, right? Even if he did so, what? He cannot prove anything.

Jing narrowed his eyes. "Something is wrong"

There was not a single change in Yukito's expression even after the pin stabbed him, yet Jing had a gnawing feeling that something went wrong.

Nana said, "You are right. Something is wrong."

Jinhai observed him and then calmly took out his phone. He typed a single-line message, sent it, and then put the phone back in his pocket.

Yu Ichika worriedly asked, "Is he alright?"

Yukira confidently said, "Mom, who are you even worried about? It's Yukito. Even if something has happened, he can deal with it."

On the stage, Yukito smiled at the audience and turned. He walked back with the same finesse and grace as if the pin wasn't stabbing him at all.

But only Yukito knew how much it was piercing inside his flesh more and more. It hurt like hell, and every step was torture, but he didn't give up.

If you think your petty trick can make me falter, then you are wrong, Huang Minzhe. I will never lose to you and your traps, even if it hurts me!

He narrowed his eyes.

There is something I have to do today. I want to fulfill my dream tonight. For that, I have to win this competition! Like hell, I would let you trample over me!

The crowd cheered hard and loud for Yukito. Everybody sensed that something felt different in him than just a few moments ago, but that just encouraged everybody to cheer even louder.

Yukito walked back to the front of the stage for the second and final time. He bowed to the crowd, smiled, and waved at them.

"Yukitoooooo! We love you!"

"Yukito! Yukito! Yukito!"

Huang Minzhe gritted his teeth.

What the hell! The pin should have hurt like crazy! He should be faltering and in pain now! Why is he still walking as if nothing has happened? He didn't even show a single change in the expression.

Did that idiot even place the pin properly!

But Yukito suddenly stared at me with that sharp and cold gaze. That means the pin did stab him.

So how? How could he be walking like that!? How can my plan fail!

Yukito walked back, and his ramp walk was over.

Yang Tian quickly came to him. "What's wrong, Yukito? You seemed a little different on the stage."

Yukito gasped and finally let out a painful breath. He quickly threw the sandals away.

Yang Tian was aghast the moment he saw his foot.

"What the hell is that? You are bleeding! Why is there a pin stuck in your feet? Medic!"

"Wait, Yang Tian," Yukito said, "Sure, call the medic and remove this pin. Just bandage it quickly. But don't tell anybody about this until the show is over.
