Chapter 618 - A PANIC ATTACK
Wang Che did not know what just happened.
He felt like one minute, he and Shun were going for dinner with Qi Han. In the next, he was watching Shun disappear while flipping him off. The shock was so incredible that he did not have the presence of mind to chase after Shun.
His heart started racing, and he felt faint. Moreover, his entire body felt like it was on fire and pain was building in his chest. Oh no! He was going to throw up. With his blurred vision, he could not see clearly. Everything seemed to be fading.
Still, he used his fingers to find the lock and opened the car door. He stumbled out and almost fell over. However, someone caught his arm before he could hit the pavement.
"What is wrong with you?" A disgruntled voice asked.
The voice sounded familiar to Wang Che, but he could not decipher it. He was trying to breathe and suppress the pain in his chest. For a moment, he wondered if he was about to die.
"I think he is having a panic attack." A female voice spoke up.
"What?" The man asked.
"A panic attack. I have seen this before." The woman repeated. "Wang Che, try to breathe slowly. It will pass as long as you stop hyperventilating."
"How is telling him that going to help him? Do you think he can hear and understand you? He has totally lost it." The man retorted while supporting Wang Che.
"There is no need to be short with me even if your friend is in trouble." The woman replied. "Here, use this bag to help him reduce his fast breathing."
"Your barf bag?" The words were filled with distaste.
"Do you want to help him or not?" The woman snapped.
"Fine." He replied. "Wang Che, breathe into this bag."
Wang Che shook his head and tried to overcome the dizziness. He needed to go after Shun. If something happened to him in the city, he would be completely lost. What had he done? Why did he threaten him? He never wanted Shun to feel anything but safe with him.
"You are a grown man having a panic attack in the middle of a parking lot. This is so embarrassing. Do you think that I will not leave you here to face the shame alone?" The disgruntled voice was grating to the ears.
Wang Che realised that he was being unreasonable. He needed to calm down. He was not in the right shape to chase after Shun. With that, he allowed the annoying Qi Han to place the bag over his mouth to stop his hyperventilation.
After a while, he felt his mind becoming clear again. He pushed the bag along Qi Han\'s arm away. He took a few more calming breaths before looking at Qi Han and Murong Yue behind him. He could not help but feel a little embarrassed.
"So, what are you doing here alone?" Qi Han asked. "Trouble in paradise?"
Wang Che glared at him with a mixture of anger and annoyance. He understood that Qi Han could be a bit of a nuisance at times, but he was not in the mood for being the mature one.
"Hey! Do not take it out on me." Qi Han laughed. "Maybe this foul attitude is the reason that little idiot wised up and ran away."
Wang Che remembered the fight with Shun and lowered his head a little in defeat. He did not know how to move forward from his current predicament. He had effectively chased away Shun because he could not be honest about his feelings.
"Oh my goodness! Is that really what happened?" Qi Han laughed even harder.
Murong Yue noticed Wang Che\'s depression and pulled on Qi Han\'s face.
"Stop." She said softly. "He is already in enough pain."
Qi Han snorted. "What do you know? I warned him that this would happen. People like that idiot are not the same as us. I mean, he was lavished with love and care from his family, and he ran away from home because they wanted to give him everything he wanted."
"What about Wang Che here? What about me? What about you?" Qi Han asked with annoyance. "We have to fight for the right to survive in this city. Even those who do not want the right to inherit have to watch their backs, or their siblings will kill them."
Wang Che did not like it when Qi Han talked about Shun.
"Everyone has their difficulties. You do not have a right to judge him." He said with a hard look at Qi Han.
"You are right. I will never understand the trouble of people who are loved too much. But again, I am not the one wheezing like a dying fish on a parking lot." Qi Han said sarcastically.
Wang Che took a deep breath to calm himself. "I need to go after him."
There was a moment of silence as the three people stood in the cold parking lot.
"You should probably give him time to cool down." Murong Yue broke the silence. "I heard Furukawa Shun lost his memories and has been staying with you. He probably just feels a bit of pressure because he has no control over his life right now."
Qi Han looked at Murong Yue in surprise before turning back to Wang Che. "She is right. He is a happy-go-lucky idiot. If he quarrelled with you and ran off, he probably just needs some space. I am sure he will come back."
"He does not know the city right now. He could get lost or get in trouble. It is already dark, and he just walked off without a destination." Wang Che had never felt so helpless.
Qi Han made a disgruntled face before he spoke. "You can just ask his friend to watch out for him."
"What do you mean?" Wang Che asked.
"Well, he probably wants nothing to do with you for now, so it would be best if you asked someone else to look out for him." Qi Han responded with a long-suffering sigh.
Wang Che understood. By friend, Qi Han meant Zhong Feng. Once again, Wang Che felt helpless and overwhelmed. He did not know how it had come to this point. Had he messed up everything so bad that he had to ask for help?
He was hesitant, but he had to think of Shun.
With that, he took out his phone.
