Transmigration: Giving The Second Male Lead All The Love I Have.-Chapter 59: The Higher You Climb, The Harder you fall.
Yang Meiyi accepted his hand and allowed him to lead her to the dance floor.
An orchestral piece was playing in the background and a few men and women were already dancing while some decided to just watch. As Yang Meiyi danced with Long Fei, she wondered which of these women was Yang Jia and which of these men was Fu Mingze but no, even though Fu Mingze was one of the hosts of this party, he would never join the dance.
"You are thinking of another man." Long Fei stated and swirled her around for a few seconds before bringing her closer to him.
Yang Meiyi smiled and said, "I can’t help it."
As they both moved according to the rhythm of the song Long Fei asked "Do you still love this man?"
"Yes." Yang Meiyi replied.
"Then I guess I have to try harder to win your heart." Long Fei said with a boyish grin.
Just then it was time to change partners, the men swirl their women and they ended up in the arms of another man.
Yang Meiyi froze when she was met with a pair of blue eyes and she knew it was him. It was her Mingze, she noticed the way he was tense and how his hand on her waist tightened as he began dancing without saying a thing, even she didn’t say a word. What could she say? She was the one who left him, she was the one who broke his heart, it was her who destroyed their relationship, her and not him.
As the music came to an end, the men and women on the dance floor bowed slightly to each other but not Fu Mingze and her, they both stood there just watching each other, no one had left the dance floor yet because it was the time for the dancers to remove their masks.
Though her eyes never left the cold blue eyes that had been staring at her, she could still see from her side vision as the men and women both removed their masks and it was as if it was just her and him left. The man in front of her didn’t even make a move to pull his mask off so she went first. Her hands loose the ribbon that held her mask together and she allowed it to fall off her face.
Yang Meiyi was about to ask him to show her his face when a young woman suddenly hugged his arm and said in a sweet voice "Mingze, you are the only one who hasn’t removed his mask."
Fu Mingze looked at the girl clinging to him and then at the woman whom he had loved endlessly before she left him. He slowly removed his mask and saw Yang Meiyi looking at his arm that was being hugged by Ye Qingyi.
Fu Mingze slowly removed his hand from Ye Qinyi’s hold and left the dance floor without a word.
Yang Meiyi saw a painful emotion flash in the girl’s eyes and she wondered what their relationship was, the girl turned to her with a smile and said "My name is Ye Qingyi and you shouldn’t feel bad about his coldness, that’s just how he is."
Yang Meiyi frowned at that, it was as if a girlfriend was trying to apologize for the rudeness of her boyfriend. She wondered what their relationship was and as she was about to introduce herself, a hand violently turned her around and she was met with Yang Jia’s furious gaze.
Yang Meiyi smiled and said excitedly "Sister Jia." She even went in for a hug but was brutally pushed away by Yang Jia.
Yang Jia held her wrist tightly and dragged her out of the dance floor into the hallway.
Yang Meiyi looked at the empty hallway and said "You don’t seem happy to see me."
"You are supposed to be in the US, no one gave you permission to come back." Yang Jia said in anger.
"Do I need permission to come back to my own home? By the way, where is father? I don’t think I caught a glimpse of him."
Yang Jia grabbed Yang Meiyi’s arm tightly and said in a soft voice "You shouldn’t cross your limit Yang Meiyi, remember there is no one in this world who can protect you. There is no Sang Family, Fu Mingze hates you and has moved on and the Yang family has become stronger than it used to be so you should know your place."
Yang Meiyi forcefully removed her hand from Yang Jia’s hold and said " I don’t have the time to listen to the threat of a thief."
"What?"
"You and your dad are nothing more than thieves. What did you say? The Yang family has become stronger? Then that’s good after all they did say the higher you climb, the harder you fall. Neither Yang Jiu nor you have the right to anything and that’s why I will take it all back starting with my mom’s resort."
Yang Jia looked at Yang Meiyi coldly and said "You are no match for me."
"Why? Are you a big shot now? Or has your status as Gu Zhen lover gotten into your head."
"Yang Meiyi!"
"Your father stole from my grandfather inorder for the Yang family to remain rich. Do you know what that means Yang Jia? It means both you and your father are nothing without my family. Without the Sang’s, the Yang would be no different than a beggar on the street. So stop acting like an owner when you are nothing but a thief, the only one who should know their place is you." Yang Meiyi coldly said and walked out.
Yang Jia watched Yang Meiyi back in disbelief and wondered if this was the same girl who left for the US two years ago. Was this the same girl who couldn’t do anything without her mother? She wants to get everything back? What a joke! That will never happen Meiyi, I will make sure you go back to the US no matter what.
...
Yang Meiyi did not feel like going back to the party, after all Yang Jiu wasn’t even there, she has no choice but to visit the old man.
Meiyi wondered what she should do next and decided to do what she has always done whenever she was at a grand party like this, she grabbed a bottle of wine and went to the hotel garden but froze in her step when she saw his back, but what broke her heart the most was that he was smoking, her Fu Mingze was smoking. She immediately walked in front of him and threw away the cigarette as she shouted "Are you insane? How do you even dare to smoke when you know the condition of your heart?"
Fu Mingze looked at the cigarette that was on the floor and turned to walk away without saying anything but Yang Meiyi held his arm and asked "Are you that angry to the point that you are destroying yourself?"
Fu Mingze chuckled coldly and asked "Aren’t you being hypocritical? At least mine wasn’t a real cigarette."
Yang Meiyi saw that he was looking at the bottle of wine in her hand and she immediately threw it away. She looked at the cigarette she threw on the floor and realized that it was an electronic cigarette and not a real one. She unknowingly sighed in relief and was about to scold him on how a cigarette is still a cigarette when she heard a familiar voice saying "There you are beautiful."
