Three days ago...Sung Jun leaves Fang Aisa"s room in anger. He is completely drenched to the skin. Water is dripping from his hair. He finds w.a.n.g Mei sitting outside Fang Aisa"s room
"Why are you here?" He asks coldly.
"How is she?" She doesn"t look up at him.
"Why don"t you go in?" Why the women of this country are complicated?
"I can"t." Her lips quiver while her eyes are full of tears. "If I go, she will be in danger."
Sung Jun becomes alert when he heard the word "danger". He narrows his eyes on her. How this human is a danger to Fang Aisa?
"Why?"
She doesn"t answer. Her shoulders are s.h.i.+vering. "Did she wake up?"
"She is awake...but I can"t say if her brain is doing well." Sung Jun grits his teeth when he remembers Fang Aisa"s words. She always treats him like he is her mortal enemy.
"What?" w.a.n.g Mei"s tears roll down on her cheeks. "Did she lose her brain? Will she die?"
Is this woman dumb? Sung Jun shakes his head tiredly. Fang Aisa and this woman are the same. Idiots!
"Yes, people can live without brains." He rolls his eyes. "Like you are living without the brain."
"What? I have my brain intact in my head." w.a.n.g Mei stands up in anger. "You are joking in this situation. Tell me how she is."
"She is awake, but she is still weak."
"It"s my fault." w.a.n.g Mei sits down again and holds her head. "I must have done something."
Sung Jun doesn"t want to talk to this girl anymore. His head is hurting from hearing nonsense. Fang Aisa isn"t easy to deal with. He is too angry to see her ever again.
"It"s not your fault." He quietly tells the depressed girl. "At least, you tell me what"s the problem."
"You can at least stay beside her." w.a.n.g Mei mumbles in low voice. "My grandmother made me take an oath to stay away from her. If I break the oath, she will die."
He frowns. Oath? Did her grandmother not like Fang Aisa? This girl is quite close to Fang Aisa, isn"t she? She must know about her. Maybe she knows why Fang Aisa hates him.
He sits beside the girl. He ignores the stares from the nurses and waits for this dumb girl to speak her heart out. This girl is quite simple.
"It"s because of her grandfather. He doesn"t like me. He called my grandmother and threatened her. He said that Fang Aisa can see dead people now. If my grandmother wants Fang Aisa to live a normal life, she must never let me get close to Fang Aisa again." w.a.n.g Mei rubs away the tears. He has seen this girl always crying whenever it is about Fang Aisa. He doesn"t like women who always cry.
"If I keep the friends.h.i.+p with her, he will not protect her anymore. Then, Fang Aisa will be taken away by evil people. I don"t understand. I was keeping my oath. Why did she fall to the swimming pool? Her fall wasn"t natural. I saw her stuck mid-air and talking to something."
His anger has already vanished. Right now, he must find what evil wants to take Fang Aisa away. Who dares to take her away from him?
"It is true that she can see ghosts." He glances at her. "She can also touch the ghosts. That"s not all. In the swimming pool, the demons caught her."
w.a.n.g Mei"s grey eyes widen in shock.
"Demons? Wait, how do you know it all?"
"I can see ghosts too." He sighs. This woman is truly an idiot.
"Why am I the only one who can"t see them?" w.a.n.g Mei covers her face with her palms. "I am so useless. If I could see them, I would have killed them all."
"You are lucky, w.a.n.g Mei." His voice is sad and regretful. "Listen, it is not your fault. I think that you should talk to your grandmother. If the Fang family could protect her, she would have never reached the hospital like this."
w.a.n.g Mei sees the light in the tunnel. "You are right!"
"You should also talk to her. I don"t think that she is doing good without you." If he wants to keep an eye on Fang Aisa, this girl will be quite helpful.
"Sung Jun, thank you for saving Fang Aisa," w.a.n.g Mei replies gratefully. "Thank you for opening my eyes. Please protect her from the ghosts and demons. I will talk to my grandmother to free me from this oath."
She glances once toward Fang Aisa"s room and bites her lips. Her eyes are resolved. She must get freed from this oath even if it takes her life. She nods at Sung Jun and leaves.
Sung jun sighs and wonders why Fang Aisa isn"t simple like w.a.n.g Mei. Then, he might not have liked her this much if she was a simple girl.
Only time will tell the truth.
***
After w.a.n.g Mei leaves the hospital, she goes to meet her grandmother. Though she is scared of her grandmother, she dares to speak out her mind. She kneels in front of her grandmother for a day before her grandmother takes her seriously. Next day, her grandmother calls Fang Aisa"s grandfather and they have a long argument.
Her grandmother is furious after the calls. She visits the Fang main house. She rages storms there. Grandfather Fang nearly has a stroke. After a lot of effort, Madam Fang manages to calm her grandmother and grandfather Fang.
Madam Fang cries when she sees Fang Qi. He manages to send his father back. He talks to grandmother w.a.n.g and tells her that it is no unsafe for Fang Aisa if w.a.n.g Mei or w.a.n.g Family resume their relations.h.i.+p with Fang Aisa.
Still, grandmother w.a.n.g"s anger doesn"t go down. She abuses grandfather Fang for lying to her and using her to hurt Fang Aisa like this. It seems like a well-designed ploy. Grandmother w.a.n.g isn"t a fool. She understands that grandfather Fang wants to make Fang Aisa feel alone and submit to the Fang family completely.
On the third day, w.a.n.g Mei visits Fang Aisa. But she is turned away. She waits near the door, but Fang Aisa refuses to see her. After waiting for the whole day, she leaves with a sad face.
All of this is her fault.
Next day, she receives a call from Granny Lan. Granny Lan tells her that Fang Aisa is going out. w.a.n.g Mei calls her underlings to find if they have seen a pink haired girl in the area. It takes a while, but w.a.n.g Mei finds her in the isolated alley with a shady guy.
She immediately sends a text to her new friend, Sung Jun.
After Sung Jun has saved Fang Aisa, he has her approval. After he makes her realise the truth, she already thinks of him as a friend.
She points the sword at the shady guy with dark wavy hair tied into a ponytail. He has pale skin and lithe figure. He has hooded eyes and high cheekbones. w.a.n.g Mei stares at his plump lips and wonders if he has been bitten by a honey been there.
Suddenly, a coin dashes toward the guy. He catches it with his left hand before it can hit his forehead. w.a.n.g Mei hears the cat meowing wildly and turns to look at Fang Aisa. She finds her holding a cat by its neck. Fang Aisa throws the cat right at the guy"s face.
Unfortunately, the guy is a bit distracted by the coin and doesn"t see the cat coming. It hits his face at the extraordinary speed. Both the cat and the guy falls to the ground and pa.s.ses out.
Fang Aisa takes w.a.n.g Mei"s hand and runs out of there.
