Because I simply love you

A second punch landed on Huang Minzhe's face.

He landed harshly on his butt.

"You have some nerve doing that to Yukito!" Jing roared in anger.

Yukito quickly stopped him. "Jing, stop!"

Everybody was stunned in the crowd.

"Huang Minzhe could go this far!"

"He is so horrible! He bribed the judges and hurt Yukito."

"Don't you remember how he tried to embarrass Yukito during the interview? He always hated him."

"That answer was fake! So disgusting to use his fans like that."

"I cannot believe I always loved Huang Minzhe so much. I looked upto him, but he turned out to be so horrible!"

Huang Minzhe heard all the harsh criticisms and insults. In a matter of just a few minutes, he became the worst model from the best model. He lost all respect his fans had for him.

Everybody was roaring and throwing things at him in anger. The videos of him bribing the judges already started to go viral over the internet.

Jing yelled. "Don't stop me, Yukito. Wasn't he laughing at you during the ramp walk? I will make him walk on the stage now with that pin stabbing in his foot. Let's see how he would laugh at that time."

The audience cheered their approval. "Yes! Liu Jing is right!"

"Let him feel how much it hurts!"

Huang Minzhe paled.

Yukito said, "Calm down, Jing. I don't want you to do anything like that, okay?"

"Why?"

"Because I already won no matter whatever trick he used. Even his fans voted for me. That is enough for him."

The head judge shook his head in disappointment. "Huang Minzhe. You are such a talented model, but you ruined your career with your own hands."

Huang Minzhe lost it and screamed. "It's not my fault! I did nothing! It's all Yukito! He did everything! He wants to frame me!"

The emcee sighed.

Even with all the evidence, he was still trying to fool everybody. He couldn't believe his jealousy would make him go this far. He was a top model himself, but greed blinded his eyes.

Wang Ling felt utterly embarrassed by the scene. She was his girlfriend, and everybody around her was giving her weird looks. Her boyfriend was reduced to such a pathetic state. But she also felt bad for Yukito that he was hurt.

She couldn't stay there any longer and quickly left the premises not to humiliate her more.

Huang Minzhe was still raging a scene on the stage, and they had to call the guards to take him out. His manager was troubled like hell. No amount of PR could save his career now. There was no way out of this.

After getting exposed like that, his career was over. Even his loyal fans started to curse him on social media.

Huang Minzhe was dragged away from the show, and peace returned. But the roaring discussions about Huang Minzhe was still going in full swing.

Nana nudged Jinhai. "You planned all that, right? About the truth of the pin just before voting and then Huang Minzhe's truth after it ended. I saw you texting someone."

Jinhai chuckled. "My wife knows me the best. Yukito is my brother, too, after all. Nobody can bully him."

"Aww, my husband is the best!" Nana hugged him.

The boys rolled their eyes. "Oof. Too many flowers are blooming."

Some of the fans finally noticed Jing and Yukito standing together.

"Waaaaa!! Jing and Yukito are together!"

"Jing! Yukito! We support you!"

"You are such a cute couple!"

"That punch was awesome!"

Jing was still mad at Huang Minzhe, but he forced himself to calm down. Then he stared at Yukito.

Jinhai's words rang in his ears.

Who do you think is chasing after whom in your relationship?

Because from where I can see, Yukito has been chasing after you for a long time now.

Jing finally understood the meaning of those words.

Yukito suddenly felt conscious of his gaze and coughed.

"OMG, Yukito is so cute blushing!"

The fans almost died seeing a tomato red Yukito.

Jing took the mike and said, "Yukito. I am sorry."

Everybody was shocked by his sudden apology. Yukito was also taken aback.

"Today, I want to admit in front of everyone that I was really stupid for doubting you. I…really misunderstood your intentions and love. You…" Tears pooled in his eyes. "You have no idea how happy I am. You made a silly comment from me as your life's dream. You did this all for me. But-but you are an idiot!"

Yukito pouted.

"You don't have to ask or prove to me anything if you can walk wearing my creations. My heart, my life, the clothes I make, everything is for you, stupid. You have already claimed every part of my life."

Yukito chuckled as tears trickled down his cheeks.

"But thank you very much. You worked so hard to fulfill my wish. I am really lucky to have you, Yukito. I love you. I really really love you."

Then he leaned towards Yukito and pressed his lips.

The crowd almost fainted.

"Aahhhhhhhh!!! Kiss!!! Jing kissed Yukito!"

They clicked a lot of pictures in all angles possible.

Yukito smiled and kissed him back as he wrapped his hand around his neck.

The crowd loudly whistled.

Wang Ling watched it in despair. Her heart was crushed into pieces. She couldn't believe that she lost to a man.

She lowered her head before anybody noticed her tears and quickly ran away. She already got her answer. As for Huang Minzhe, she had already decided to break up with him.

Jing grinned brightly as he parted from Yukito.

Yukito chuckled. "You wanted me to confess my love, right? Are you happy?"

Jing sheepishly smiled. "Hehe~~ this was beyond my expectation. I am not just happy. I am super duper happy!"

Amidst the cheering crowd, they gazed into each other's eyes and intertwined fingers. They felt as if they were the only ones alone in this hall filled with the fans. They leaned their foreheads and smiled.

"Yukito."

"Hm."

"I love you."

"Jing."

"Hm."

"I love you too."
