In the evening, she got a anonymous video of her fiancee and another girl entering a hotel. Unknown to herself, she went to actually see what was going on. When she confronted the other girl she was utterly humiliated, it was to the point that even her fiancee did not stand up for her. Instead that son of a b**** pushed her out of the room while asking her to not disturb him.
Only if things would have ended there, as soon as she came at the exit of the hotel, she was bombarded by the reporters. They were as said, ruthless people who cared only about their story. In the spur of a moment, Meifeng gave them their story which probably was the headline for today's paper. She broke off her engagement with her fiancee on the pretext of cheating.
She was not at all worried about breaking up the engagement, on the point, she never loved that man. It was just because it was decided by the elders of the family she tried to keep it intact. Meifeng was mainly worried about, her cousin sister, who was supposed to marry the younger son of her Fiancee. Another thing that scared her was the health of her grandfather and the scoldings she would be receiving after going back home. Her uncle and aunt had already considered her as an eyesore, after this... She was completely unsure about her life.
She was in no mood to go back home last night making her walk on the road aimlessly. When she started walking, the sky was clear. Meifeng did not remember when it started raining. She only remember's that, after a long thought, she eventually decided to give up on this life. She saw a bright light coming in full speed. It was at that moment that Meifeng's legs moved and within no time she was in front of the car. After that she just woke up in the morning. She had no collection of what had happened throughout the night. According to what Wu Qiqiang spoke she realized that the car she choose was his.
Taking a deep breath Meifeng suppressed the sad feelings in her heart while she dried up the tear's in her eyes as well. Slowly sliding under the duvet, Meifeng revealed only her eyes and asked the most important question which was haunting her since she opened her eyes, "Third brother Wu, did we...I mean...Last night..."
Meifeng tried her best to frame the question in a way that, it would be less awkward but was unable to. It was much more shameful to ask something like this to someone who she had known as compared to someone she had not known.
Meifeng thought for a long time, while Wu Qiqiang waited patiently for her to ask what she was unable to ask. Meifeng had spent most part of her life with Wu Qiqiang making her well aware of the fact that he is a person who hates the ones who waste time. Unfortunately, she was doing what he apparently hates. At last gathering all her courage Meifeng decided to ask the question, instead of believing it without knowing anything.
"Third brother Wu, did you being me to the hotel last night?" this was the most easiest and the best way to open up the topic according to Meifeng.
"Yes" came a smooth, quick reply from Wu Qiqiang while his eyes were still fixed on her. His gaze was unwavering, as if he wanted to drill into her mind and know what she was thinking.
While Meifeng asked the question, there were many thought's running through her mind. Some were frightening while some were impossible, 'What if it was someone else and not Third brother Wu ? What if it was actually Third brother Wu? There are also chances that nothing might have happened ?But then why is my whole body paining like hell and why are there bedsheets with blood?' Shaking her head softly she dispelled those thoughts while gearing up to hear the answer. As Wu Qiqiang answered, her heart tightened while an ominous feeling started crowding her heart, "Then...Then Third brother..." stuttering Meifeng's gaze was fixed on the bed-sheets lying on the ground.
Wu Qiqiang being a sharp person already knew there was something troubling her. It was the reason he was patiently waiting for her to speak. Naturally her gaze which was fixed on the dirty bedsheets did not miss Wu Qiqiang's sight. Looking at the bedsheets he realized her train of thought's, "Am I such a person in your eyes?"
Wu Qiqiang's voice was clearly filled with anger. Shrinking a little more under the bed Meifeng said, "Then, my clothes..."
'Silly girl' murmured Wu Qiqiang before answering,"You had high fever last night. I knew that you are allergic to some medicines. So instead of calling doctor I tried the traditional method that aunt used to try. I called a lady helper who removed your clothes and rubbed your body with alcohol till the temperature went back to normal."
Knowing what actually happened dispelled the worst fears that Meifeng had, while it also relaxed her. Lowering her head, like a child who had made a mistake, she pitifully apologized, "Third brother Wu, I am sorry."
Sighing Wu Qiqiang was about to ask something when there was a knock on the door. Meifeng had been already scared since she had got up. Just when she thought she would get a chance of relaxing some one came. Even though nothing had happened, her current situation was not good to be seen. If it would be someone from her family she would be ....
Meifeng quickly asked Wu Qiqiang with a panic filled face not to open the door.
"Why?" asked Wu Qiqiang with a straight face without any emotion.
"What if it is someone from my family? or reporters? No..no do not open." before Meifeng could finish her sentence and convince him to not open the door he had already went ahead.
.............Meifeng quickly covered herself with the blanket and made sure to catch it tightly from all sides using her hands and feet. She was almost sure that it would be the same scene which is generally shown in the movies. Reporters swarming at the door, if not them, there would be her fiancee's family ready to blame her or else at the very least it would be her family who would make the situation over dramatic.Though Meifeng was completely unaware as why Wu Qiqiang had went ahead to open the door even after her warning him, she decided to first protect herself. Other people can think about themselves.Opening the door, Wu Qiqiang was greeted by his assistant. Assistant Mu had been working alongside Wu Qiqiang since he started his training. Over the year's it was the first time that assistant Mu had seen his boss taking care of a girl. Last night when the accident had happened he was present in the car and had very well witnessed how his bo
............Meifeng quickly went ahead and washed up. Coming out of the shower wearing the baby blue colored one piece which was bought by Wu Qiqiang. Walking timidly towards Wu Qiqiang, she spoke, "Third brother Wu, I will take my leave now."As Meifeng had just showered, making her smell mildly like strawberries which was her favorite scent. Wu Qiqiang was well aware of when she started walking towards him. He was just arranging the breakfast purchases by assistant Mu when she requested him that she wanted to leave.It was not a big deal that she wanted to leave, but Wu Qiqiang was well aware about the fact that she was used to having breakfast as soon as she got up. Noticing such a big change in her made him frown."Eat something before leaving."Wu Qiqiang said which almost sounded like an order.Looking at the table full of foods that she once loved, made Meifeng teary. Masking her emotions she quickly n
The room went back to its usual tranquility after assistant Mu was forced to be quiet by his boss's glare. Some time passed by, assistant Mu was about to suggest something when Wu Qiqiang broke the silence, "Did you bring the gift I asked you to?"Opening a picture in his mobile Assistant Mu passed it to Wu Qiqiang, "Yes boss. It was difficult to find it, but we managed."The gift that Wu Qiqiang was talking was a painting made by a very renowned artist abroad. The artist was called Lucas. His paintings were probably only handful as he painted only for one year before being paralyzed. Old man Qian had valued him alot due to his talent. Another reason was because Lucas was the last student trained by old man's brother who had already passed away. The painting Wu Qiqiang had asked Assistant Mu to bring was the last painting that Lucas was able to draw. It was called as 'The Crying Beauty'. It was a beautiful depiction of a side face of the woman, who had various thoughts
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

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
