All Chapters of Don't Take Me Lightly: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Mei didn’t utter a word as she stood there staring a hole at Xue. Not knowing what to do Xue just pulled out an awkward smile before continuing with the phone call.Mei ignored it as she walked to the kitchen to grab a glass of water.“How is Mei?” asked Su Lin from the other end.“What do you think? You should have an idea?”“It was my mistake.”“You are always ready to apologize but also the first one to hurt her. How could you even think of something like that? I really don’t want to spend another minute on you. If you wanted to know about her you called up the wrong person. I’ll leave you here.”She hung up the phone and looked around to see Mei exit the kitchen.“Mei!”Mei turned around to see her walking towards her. “What did he call for? Routine Checkup or what?”“You could probably say that. Anyways what are you up to

Hui had impulsively decided to head to her place to return the jeep. It was halfway that he thought about her staying back at Xue’s place. Therefore, he was not expecting to run into her. This unanticipated situation that leads to their encounter brought him a millimeter of joy. He wanted to know her more. As she turned around to leave, he called her out, “Wait!” She looked back at him. He was fidgeting not knowing what to say. Just then he saw her bandage turn to a darker shade of red. “Bl.. Bloo.. Blood” “Wha-” before she could question what he was saying she felt something trickle down from her forehead. She lifted her fingers and brushed the side of her forehead. She saw blood on her fingers. Irritated she rubbed it of with her sleeve. ‘I should have been a bit more careful. Where the hell did, I hit my head.’ Before she could complete cleaning, her forehead Hui grabbed her hand and pulled her along his direction. She struggled to

She floored the gas pedal and headed in. As the lights faded away and the darkness started to become more prominent she lured them into the maze and switched off the lights and sped away. "Is there any way to get behind them?"He turned to see that she had shaken them off a bit. "A couple of turns should do the trick. Right from here."She followed the instructions he gave. It didn't take them long to land right behind them. He felt elated with everything that was happening. He turned to look at her to see her smirking and cruising right behind them. The bloodied bandages only made her look fiercer. Then she suddenly switched on the lights, revved the engine and swiftly took a right turn leaving them hanging. "This is going to be fun! See if you can get a number, as to how many." she exclaimed. "I'll try."She played them, like a cat playing with a mouse, catching them unexpectedly and then rushing away. "We have eight." he stated"You sure?""Yes.""How many rounds have we got?"

"Leave, both of you," said Mei lying back down. She closed her eyes, ignoring both of them.Hui settled down in a chair saying, "I am staying.""I will wait," said Lin as he walked to the corridor to find somewhere to sit down. She didn't bother to respond, paying no heed to either of them. Hui kept an eye on the IV, to make sure it didn't run out. He was well aware that staying or not wasn't going to impress her, but he wanted to. When she told him to hold her, it made his heart flutter for some reason. Despite clearly knowing the situation, he couldn't suppress that emotion. When the IV was almost done, he informed the nurse. As the nurse was taking out the IV, Xue walked in. "I told you to get a good rest. What the hell did you do?" chided Xue."You are staying with me for the next week. You shouldn't have pushed yourself so hard. Also, what is with Lin? How did he end up here? Did he do this to you? Or was it this coffee boy?" continued Xue."Coffee boy it was," she responded.X

A week later, Mei had had her stitches removed and was doing much better. She had gone back and forth with Xue over the past week about the move, but Xue was completely against the idea. Mei had to sneak around to pack her things for the move. She also had to make sure there were no more recordings or details left behind about her vigilante activities.She had to cover her tracks before the move, so she made sure to erase as much evidence as she could to avoid getting caught. She had managed to hack into one of Hui’s main servers and wipe the data. Clearing the data would only leave Hui with more work to do. With little to no information to work with, he would have a much harder time finding her unless she continued her activities.She hadn’t seen him in the past week, so she was feeling a little more relieved.She was going to Xue’s place for the night again. Since she had decided to move, she wanted to spend the remaining nights with her. Ever since the hospital visit, she had been u
