Mishi finished eating the porridge and came out of her room. She saw Lau was sitting on the chair of the dining table. Lau heard her footsteps and turned to her.

"Oh Mishi you should've called me. You don't have to trouble yourself", said Lau and got up from the chair.

"It's fine...", said Mishi and smiled.

"How much did you cry?", asked Lau. Mishi looked at him.

"Don't stare at me. Your puffy eyes are the proof", said Lau and made her sit on the chair.

"Let's talk for sometime", said Lau and sat opposite to her. "So tell me Mishi why do you cry so much?", asked Lau. Mishi looked at him with surprising look.

"Consider me as your closest friend. I'm a doctor won't share any talks between us. Tell me what is this marriage for you", said Lau.

"My parents died six years ago and all these years nobody showed concern for me and my siblings. No one actually showed love to us. But then I met Xian by destiny. He gave me everything although I did wrong to him six years ago. I should've trusted him that time. If I would then...", Mishi sighed saying this. "But he's my husband. I am the cause of his pain..... I love him but I don't think he will ever feel something like this for me because this relation started with hatred", said Mishi and looked at Lau Lan.

"Okay. Now let me tell you about Xian. He's not like he's behaving. He lost his conscience because of that girl. He never thought about any other woman except Bai. But then he get married for taking revenge from you....this Mark has told me.

But this is not the case. Even he has started this thing with hatred but he started liking your company that's why he's possessive of you. He cares for you that's why he called me when you got this sick.

Mishi you've to show him that you're also an important person in his life not a thing. He will surely realize one day that you're his woman, his precious woman. But for that you don't have to listen to him if he's doing wrong to you. Fight with him.....if you are afraid that he'll harm someone related to you then I assure you it won't happen because he will never do that. He's just angry so appease his anger".

"What should I do? He just got angry.....", said Mishi.

"You never dated right?", asked Lau. Mishi nodded.

"Girl you've to get angry on him then. Don't talk to him and don't do anything for him. Then he'll understand your value", said Lau.

"But I can't. My siblings...."

"Mishi don't think about them right now. I mean focus on your marriage for now. Are you getting my point?", asked Lau.

"Hmm...Okay. I felt good after talking with you", said Mishi and smiled. They were talking when doorbell rang. Lau went to open the door. Xian came inside and looked at him.

"Where were you gone?", asked Lau.

"Somewhere", said Xian and walked inside the living room. Mishi too came there and looked at him. "Are you okay now?", asked Xian from Mishi.

"Hm I'm good", said Mishi.

"Go sleep now. It's late night", said Xian and laid back on the couch.

"You will sleep here?", asked Lau looking at Xian.

"Yes. This is my house and I can sleep anywhere", said Xian.

"Go to your room....and if you don't then I'm gonna tell your mother", said Lau crossing his arms.

"Hh...I'm not afraid of your threats", said Xian and closed his eyes.

"Fine then...", said Lau and took the phone from his pants pockets and dialled Aunt Biyu's number.

After two rings she picked up.

"Hello aunty this is Lau". Xian got shocked hearing this and quickly ran to him. He snatched his phone and cuts the call.

"Are you....."

"Don't say bad words....I told you I've come here to trouble you", said Lau with a smile. Mishi looked at them. Xian without saying anything went to his room. Lau winked at Mishi and gestured her to go to the room.

Mishi entered the room and closed the doors behind her. She saw Xian was seated at the sofa.

"You can sleep on the bed till you will get alright", said Xian.

"I'm okay now", said Mishi in a low voice.

"Mishi let's not argue this late", said Xian.

"I didn't argue. It's just I don't want you to sleep there. It'll be uncomfortable for you", said Mishi.

"Then should I sleep there with you on the same bed?", asked Xian with a raised brow.

"Hm....Don't worry. I won't come to you. I promise....pinky promise", said Mishi with a smile. Xian got up from the couch and laid down on the bed beside Mishi with his back to her. Mishi switched off the lights and laid down on the other edge of the bed facing Xian's back.

"Yin I should go back", said Mark looking at his watch.

"Your mother is again calling you?", asked Yin.

"No. Xian and Mishi ain't there so I've to be there at least...", said Mark and got up from the couch.

"Where are Mishi and Xian?", asked Yin.

"They are in their apartment of course", said Mark and walked towards the door.

"Why don't they live there?", asked Yin.

"Because Xian doesn't want to. He said he wants to be alone with his wife", said Mark and smiled. "I'm happy finally he's out of his first love....", said Mark and looked at Yin "isn't it?"

"Hhh....hmm. Good to see that Xian is happy", said Yin.

"Okay then I should leave now. Take care...", said Mark, gave her a kiss on the forehead and left from there.

Yin closed the door and went inside her room. Sitting on the bed she started thinking about Xian. "Why is he so much concerned about her. He didn't even come to meet me after that day in the hospital. Never once he did this to me but since the day Mishi came he get changed. I can't bear seeing him with her. Mark now you will unknowingly help in throwing Mishi from his life", mumbled Yin and picked her phone from the bed side table. She called someone and after talking with him/her for a while she hangs up the call.

"Mishi you've pay for it. The things you've done with me. I won't spear you....."

She looked at their photos a previous 2 day trip in which Xian was kissing her on the cheeks and then holding her happily in his arms. She crumbled the photos and threw them at the floor.

"I can't sleep since the day he told me that he never loved me and with you he feels happy. How can he say such a thing? Never once I left his side when Bai left him and you betrayed him but he never saw my efforts, my love and care for him. Xian you should've at least looked at me with those eyes from which you look at Mishi. I left everything for you but you didn't even see me once", thinking about all such things she turned off the lights and laid down on the bed.

Mark reached home and saw Chunhua is practicing for the upcoming audition. Chang was also sitting on a chair and watching her. He smiled and went to Chang.

"Chun is really working hard", said Mark with a smile.

"Oh brother. You got late today too. Hm she's working hard", said Chang and got up from the chair. "But why are you so late?", asked Chang.

"Hehe...just....", murmured Mark.

"Accept that you were on a date. Are you dating someone?", asked Chang with a smile.

Mark smiled and said, "you're taking interest in these things".

"Brother I'm asking because Chunhua keeps on telling me that you and sister Yin are dating", said Chang.

"Chun knows everything. Let's not talk about these things. Tell me when's the audition?", asked Mark.

"Next week on Thursday", replied Chang.

"Okay then I'll clear my schedules", said Mark.

"Thanks brother", said Mark.

"Hey you don't need to thanks me. Let's watch now the dance", said Mark and they shifted their gazes to Chun hua who was dancing beautifully. After the music stopped she sat on the floor, breathing heavily.

Mark and Chang went to her.

"Brother how did I dance?", asked Chunhua looking at Mark.

"You dance like an idol....you will make it", said Chang caressed her head lovingly. Chunhua thanked him. "I'm tired. I'm going to sleep", said Chunhua and got up from the floor, yawning she went towards her room.

Chang turned to Mark and asked, "when will they return?"

Chang looked at him and said, "in two days. It was of week so they will return in a week. I don't think Mishi and Xian will come here. They will go to their aparntment".

"Okay. Ok brother I should go to my room.....goodnight", said Chang and walked away. Mark too went to his room.
