She had no idea for how long they sat there as he whimpered. It must have taken its toll on him. She knew how much he liked Su Cha. They had been talking for two years and he would always talk about her at home. She knew he loved her too much.He finally calmed down and began to talk again, “I saw them molesting her behind the faculty hall. Not many people usually passed through there. But, anyone would gave seen them if they passed through there. It was in public, Xin Er. How could they do that?”“What did you do when you saw them?”“I helped her escape. But, do you know what she said? She said I was being meddlesome. That I ought to mind my business. She slapped me and ran off. I don’t know why she did that. I like her, Xin Er. I like her a lot. It hurts when I think of what happened.”“Then, what was that with the crowd?”“They tried to corner me after she ran away. He said she was his fucktoy. He said so many things. Like how he would make her beg him for sex. It

The sun rays filtered through the blinds of her bedroom window, consequently, hitting her squarely in the face. Grumbling with dissatisfaction, she held her hand towards her face to block the sun rays. Mo Xin Er's eyelashes trembled as she shuffled herself off the bedsheets. She yawned, stretching a little before making her way to a door in the corner of the room which seemed to be the loo. She soon returned, though, a black towel hanging loosely on her shoulders. Her inky black hair dripped with water soaking the white tee she was putting on. She dried her face with the towel as she made her way to her bedroom.A ding on her phone suddenly made her glance at it. She grabbed it and her eyes widened. She scrolled on it a few times and soon brought it to her ears. She seemed to be calling someone.“Hey, Zack”His deep voice resonated from the phone. “Xin Er”“I saw your message. That… is it true?”“It is. I thin

Her eyes widened – did he hear all she said?When Mo Xin Er walked into the penthouse, Lu Yichen was sitting up the stairs in the library. He glanced at the laptop placed on the desk in front of him, a tiny smile gracing his lips. The scanner placed at the foyer was undetectable, however, it had managed to catch onto something he found interesting. He had always known she was different from others but he wasn’t expecting her to bring an electric whip. From where, did she even get it? He shook his head and got up his seat to meet with her. But the very words he heard made him halt his steps. “… the penthouse is around the school…” Was she even telling someone where she was? So cautious!He dipped his hands in his knickers pockets and made his way down the stairs. He could see a little figure donned in black seated on one of the sofas in his study. Her phone was placed to her ear. She was still making tha

He was about to continue when a knock came resounding on the door. Lu Yichen glanced at the door with furrowed brows before he called in a deep voice, “Come in.”“Boss, it's me,” The assistant called out as he made his way into the room, two boxes in hand. He walked towards them and continued, “Boss, you haven't eaten.”“Just drop it on the desk over there,”  Lu Yichen finally said before he returned his attention to the laptop interface. He commenced, “In the Han Dynasty, the date of the festival was finally fixed on the first day of the first month in the Chinese Lunar Calendar. And since then, the Chinese New Year was celebrated in each dynasty that followed.”His fingers that lay on the keypad paused and he looked at her. Mo Xin Er also raised her head and looked at him with questioning eyes.“What's wrong?”“Done.”She looked confused as her gaze darted between

Mo Xin Er asked, “What vacation is that? We are still on resumption.”“He can go anywhere he wishes to, Xin Er. As long as he says it.”“But did he tell you why he is going with her?” Mo Xin Er probed. “There ought to be a reason, right?”“He said he met her at his family dinner yesterday and she had managed to convince his mother to let her come along with her cousin. And she agreed. “Fan Liuying smiled bitterly as she shook her head. “He said he had no choice but to agree. But now, that I see things clearly, who can force him to do something he doesn’t want?”Mo Xin Er nodded in unison. Who can force him to go on a trip with someone he didn’t want to be with? But she still felt something was wrong. So she took a guess and face Fan Liuying. “So, you told him that you wanted to go with him but he didn't agree.”“Yes. According to him, he had promised his mot
