Another step...

Never...

Another step....

Let this man belong to another woman.

Gu Bojing didnt know what he was supposed to do. No he knew what he wanted to do, he just didnt remember any of them currently. He slowly brought himself to stand staring at the young lady who took a step after another to get to him.

She tugged at his sleeve and looked into his eyes...from her peripheral vision she could see a drawing of her on his table with some scribbled words. But now all she focused on was this man.

This man with a buzz cut, this man who listened to no other but her, this man who cared about her, this man standing right here in her front, this man who loves her...

This man is her husband. And will always be.

She strained her neck a little and cupped his face. Landed a soft kiss on his lips. Savoring the feeling she had missed. How long has it been when first kissed her like this. If she had followed her heart then, would things have been different?

Would they have been a normal couple. Would they have dated properly.

She Stood there for few seconds before she realised something was wrong.

If she could stay like this..be in his arms not have any insecurities, be with him...

She quickly pulled away as if she had been struck by something...

She would get selfish but never too greedy.

"You....you..you are an idiot!" and she ran out.

Gu Bojing didnt know whether to be happy or to be sad. He didnt know if he should chase after her or stay. But his heart thumped for some reason.

This was the first time..she had willingly come to him.

This was the first time she had given him a chance to see another part of her.

As he slipped into his seat, he stared at the drawing again.

Perhaps his wife wasnt as bad as they thought.

"For now and always....yours truly with love."

It was a silly wish but didnt she know...just how much those words meant to him. He traced his thumb over the 'love'and smiled.

One day she would say it to him.. For now and always. I Mo Ai..yours truly with love.

And I Gu Bojing your truly, with love and forever.

Lifen dragged Weng Xu Lou and intentionally with force threw her to the floor.

Weng Xu Lou got back up with a vicious look in her eyes. "Bitch....how dare you. You have gotten a little strength. Did you..?

Lifen placed her hands in her pocket and asked. "You just never die do you?"

Wneg Xu Lou spat..." How did you know?"

"Where is she?" Lifen asked.

"Why would you care...? It's just a little girl...and also.." she moved closer to Lifen and traced her facial features. "you how adorable...if only you had become mine..."

Lifen slapped her hands away and held her neck in a tight grip. "Do you know? Who the girl is?"

Weng Xu Lou faked a cough and released herself. Swiftly, she circled Lifen and had her hands gripping on her shoulders. Lifen struggled but couldn't free herself. In no more than few seconds she felt as though her bone would be crushed. "There are lots of girls darling. Who?"

Lifen struggled to speak. "You....know who I am talking about."

She let her go and Lifen staggered. "That murderer. If you arent that strong why then did you hit me? You could have asked Xiao Ai to do it. It's been long since I had a good fight anyways. How did you know, that is was me?"

Lifen composed herself and stood straight. "No other evil lady wears a collar like that. Havent you grown?"

She began to walk away. "I taught you better Lifen dont disappoint me."

Lifen looked back at her. "I wont. You can be rest assured. I am not a person to be easily swayed by relationships."

Weng Xu Lou dusted her clothes and adjusted her collar. Who knew she would catch on?

Before Gu Bojing could even dwell on his thoughts, Xiao Ai was already back.

"You come over and sit here."

He complied.

"Did you take the pills I left you this morning?"

He nodded.

"What did you eat?"

She placed a stethoscope at his chest, but he quickly shifted away.

How could he let her hear, just how crazily fast his heart was beating.

Xiao Ai gave him an annoyed look. "I came here to apologise. I was being childish last night. It's just I am so stressed these days..."

Hearing her say she came to apologise lifted his mood. "Stressed? You've done nothing but annoy your brother in law and scam your elders."

She raised a hand to hit him but stopped. "Anyways I have no excuses. I am sorry but how dare you have a fever..." she raised her voice. "Did you eat the pills on an empty stomach after drinking last night? Do you not even care for your health?"

Gu Bojing amiled at her. Xiao Ai was now starting to get angry.

"You are smiling? You have the guts to smile? How dare you? Get up.i was going to go easy on you but not anymore. You are going to the hospital. "
