Meifeng was used to all this, thus she endured as she always did. Wiping her tears she quietly picked up the news paper and realized she was photographed while going in the hotel, but the man's face was not captured. Looking towards her uncle with teary eyes Meifeng was just about to explain it when he spoke up, "Meifeng, even though you never did anything for us, we still tried to do our best for you. Marrying Young Master Han was the best choice we could have ever bought to an orphan. You could have enjoyed the status, power and many things. Even if you could have not wanted that, you could atleast have thought about your sister. Both of you were slated to marry in the Han family. Now, just because of your childishness she would also be in trouble."
'Childishness, Best, Orphan' this were the words ringing in Meifeng's mind. She had thought atleast she would be able to say out her thoughts to her uncle. Unexpectedly, she realized she was wrong. For them she was just a burden who was supposed to be traded for business purposes.
It was no doubt that Young Master Han was a well known play boy who toys around with women every now and then. At first Meifeng accepted the marriage because she was worried about her grandfather. But she never thought she would be disrespected and humiliated even by her fiancee that too in front of his one night stand. Gathering all of her courage Meifeng was about to take a stand for herself, "Uncle...."
Interrupting her Han Mi spoke, "The Han family will visit later in the afternoon. Young Master Han will also come along. You will apologize to him and beg them to let this matter pass by."
"No."Meifeng immediately retorted. She had once thought that she will be able to live happily after her marriage. Yesterday she realized the cruel reality. What she once thought was a far away dream. Walking in the rain she understood many things. she had to take a stand for her own life. She is an adult and she had the right to choose.
Qian Xu, who was calmly sitting on the couch while watching all the fiasco changed his face immediately after hearing Meifeng's rejection. Luckily, before he could act his wife had grabbed the opportunity.
Rushing towards Meifeng, Aunt Han Mi gave her a kick on her stomach making Meifeng wince in pain. She did not stop there, turning towards a servant standing on the side she asked them to fetch something.
Looking at Meifeng who was curled on ground with blood spilled on the white tiles making it look gross, She shouted, "No, What do you mean by No? Do you think that marrying into Han family will lower your ....."
"Madam."Servant appeared with a long stick in her hand interrupting Han Mi.
Grabbing the stick from the maid, Han Mi raised it to hit Meifeng. Cutting through the air in a snap the stick landed on Meifeng's back, "You piece of trash. How dare you look down on Han family?"

The links are in the authors thoughts.....................Shouting at the top of her lungs, Aunt Han Mi raised the stick again, ready to hit Meifeng.Meifeng who had gotten used to this treatment since last eight years was simply curled up on the floor with her eyes closed and her hands protecting her head. Over the course of time Meifeng had learned that the best way to avoid or decrease her torment was to bear it quietly without even crying. Most of the times Meifeng would be receiving around ten to twelve sticks before her uncle stops it. Resigning to her fate Meifeng was waiting for the second stick to land on her body.Aunt Han Mi was boiling with anger, the second stick was in the midst of cutting through air and landing on Meifeng's body. Before it could land on her body it was grabbed by someone or precisely something came in between Meif
"Third brother Wu..." Meifeng was about to ask him to not meddle in the matters as it can bring him harm, but she was silenced with a sharp, cold voice,"Shut up."Mr Qing who had not reacted even for a moment till now, stood up noticing some unknown man leaving with Meifeng.Quickly grasping the situation Aunt Han Mi shouted, "Where do you think you are taking her?"Assistant Mu was equally shocked seeing his boss directly picking up the lady boss and walking out disregarding everything else, "We will take Miss Qian first.""Qian Meifeng, Dare you go out of this house."shouted Han Mi at the top of her lungs, threatening her. She was sure that if today Meifeng did not apologize to the Han family there are high chances that even her daughter's engagement would be in trouble. She knew Meifeng had always stayed under her wing and was easily threatened. When one threat did not work, she was about shout something else, but another deep voice was heard.
Meifeng was always a delicate girl. Specially when her parents were there she was the princess and used to spend her free time cultivating herself. Gardening had been one of her best ways to spend time in the past. Hearing about colorful flowers she smiled widely while her eyes twinkled, "Wow, that's great. Yes I love flowers."Assistant Mu quickly nodded, "Our boss also likes it. Thus he has kept a special person to take care of the garden." Feeling happy in his heart Assistant Mu patted himself for giving his boss a good impression in front of the lady.Assistant Mu quickly came out of the car and opened the door for his boss with a wide smile plastered on his face which clearly asked for praise. Getting down Wu Qiqiang grabbed Meifeng and picked her up in her arms the same way before walking inside the mansion.Meifeng was so embarrassed about the fact that she was being carried in his arms. At her house she was indeed scared and heart broken, thus she
"Third Brother Wu, I don't want to drag you into this mess."This was the best reply Meifeng could give to him as she did not want to speak anything about other matters or give him even a little hint about other things which she knew of. Meifeng was nervous thinking about how Wu Qiqiang would answer. A small part of her heart which she had buried long ago was trying to come out asking for support, asking for happiness, asking to be loved...Wu Qiqiang scoffed, "Do you think, I , Wu Qiqiang cannot clear up this mess?." Wu Qiqiang's each and every word, his question displayed his arrogance, his pride. Any other normal person would think he was bluffing but only few of them knew how capable he was.Wu Qiqiang's question was like a time bomb on Meifeng. She was completely unable to answer it, if she says yes, she was disregarding him and, based on her knowledge of him, he would do anything to prove it to her. While if she says no, she would still have to give an appropriate
Wu Qiqiang would have smacked Mu Jin if he would have joking or trying to hit on Meifeng, but since they were together since long time Wu Qiqiang was easily able to make out when Mu Jin would be joking and when eh would be serious. According to Wu Qiqiang he was serious right now.Mu Jin knew that Qian Meifeng was just about to turn eighteen after all she was the headlines of every news today. Hearing the answer Mu Jin showed a happy expression saying, ""Wow, that is awesome Miss Qian. I have a occupational disease so I will advice you something. I would suggest you to get a full body check up once as soon as possible."Meifeng's face changed hearing about the full body checkup, "Why?"Smiling Mu Jin answered, "Ohh, there is no need to worry Miss Qian. As I said I have a occupational disease. It is advisable to go through a full body check up every year and specially when you turn an adult. So I just advised you."Meifeng calmed down and nodded to his sug
Mu Jin removed his glasses and placed them in his pocket. His demeanor had now completely changed. From a serious looking person he was now looking like a playboy. Mu Jin and Wu Qiqiang had been friends since years thus it was not at all surprising for Wu Qiqiang to understand about Mu Jin's thoughts."Who is she?" Instead of answering Wu Qiqiang's question Mu Jin had asked him another question startling Wu Qiqiang.Wu Qiqiang who was startled replied non-chalantly, "None of your business."When Mu Jin did not answer or say anything Wu Qiqiang asked a little desperately,"Tell me. What is the problem?""She is my patient. I cannot disclose any information about her before I am sure about her place in your life." Mu Jin spoke calmly with righteousness.Though Wu Qiqiang and Mu Jin had been friends since long both of them had their own principles. Mu Jin was a well known play boy in the social circle but when it came to his work and his patients he wo
Inside the room,After Wu Qiqiang and Mu Jin had left, assistant Mu had started flattering Meifeng."Miss.Qian, do you need something to eat?"Meifeng who wanted to see the news her family was talking since morning tried to get down from the bed to get her cell phone which was placed on the table.Quickly stopping Meifeng, assistant Mu asked politely,"Miss. Qian, do you need anything. I can get it for you. There is no need for you to move." '(if you move i might not be bale to move for the rest of my life')Ofcourse he did not say the latter part. Any smart person was well aware about when they should not piss their lady boss.Meifeng who was not used to all this tried t argue but it turned out to be of no use as assistant Mu stood besides the bed guarding it like guarding some princess. Little did she knew she was more precious than a princess to someone. At last Meifeng pointed towards the table and requested assistant Mu to pass her cell
Smiling gently Meifeng looked around to check the presence of Wu Qiqiang. Once she confirmed that he was nowhere closer to the room she asked assistant Mu with a low voice, "Assistant Mu, since when are you working with Third Brother Wu?"Assistant Mu who was scared about Meifeng's question instantly relaxed. Making a proud look he adjusted his tie with both hands, cleared his throat, and answered, "For ten years Miss. Qian. I am the only one who is working for so long under President Wu."Meifeng had got her answer in the first half thus she simply ignored the second half of assistant Mu's answer. Again looking around for Wu Qiqiang's arrival Meifeng asked in a much lower voice, "Why has Third Brother Wu came back this time?"This was a little tough question as compared to the first one. Assistant Mu was put on a tough spot wondering if he should tell Meifeng about their business or not. Remembering how patient his boss was with Meifeng he decided it would be b
