Chapter 674: I Am Here
It was Dr. Xiao who first snapped back to her senses. She threw herself on Zeke and tried to grab his wrists, preventing him from tearing at his hair. But Zeke’s strength was too strong and she could not move him at all. With tears in her eyes, she snapped at the dumbfounded Dr. Feng. "Help me hold him down!
Dr. Feng blinked and immediately worked together with Dr. Xiao to restrain Zeke’s movements.
"Zachary, wake up!!" Dr. Feng shouted at him.
"Zachary..." Dr. Xiao sobbed as she begged. "Please... don’t be like this!"
However, the man continued to struggle like crazy and he was so powerful that he almost overthrew the both of them. It was as if Zeke had withdrawn into himself, into a world which held nothing but misery and darkness. With his arms in the other two’s death grip, he faced the overcast sky and kept screaming, screaming and screaming. His eyes were so red as if blood was going to drip down from it. But no tears.
...He did not even have any tears left to cry.
"Lu... Lu Yizhou..." he finally uttered his first words, his voice was rough and filled with nothing but pain. His eyes were so lost, so empty as if the only source of light within him was being extinguished bit by bit until nothing remained. Not even a drop of it. "Lu Yizhou... Lu Yizhou..." he called out his beloved’s name again and again.
Yet all that answered him was the fierce whistle of blizzard, the rain of snowflakes and the pungent smell of the exploding crystal ball.
Dr. Xiao bowed her head and bit her lips to muffle the cry, tears falling down from her eyes in pitter patter. The explosion had been too terrifying and Lu Yizhou was too close to the source. Even if he was still alive, he might as well be hanging on the thread of life and death right now...
