"Huh? What?!" Cao looked dumbfounded at what I said. "Ace, he has university… can you wait until he finishes university?" Yu Yan asked worriedly as she knew that her son would accept it immediately.
"Mom, I can study and play!" Cao got depressed as his mother shot down the offer. "Haha! Sister Yu, It will begin after one year, how long does he even have till he finishes? One year?" I smiled as I looked at Yu.
"Huh… Okay, but he needs to finish his bachelor…" Yu gave up, "Do not worry, I plan to teach in Shanghai for a year, your son will be in good hands, haha!" I finished my tea and stood up.
"Nice meeting you sister-in-law" Emma bowed as she stood up with me after finishing her tea. "Of coarse! To think that someone is capable of dating Ace" Yu giggled as she had an interest in my relationship with Emma.
"I will leave now, We will meet at Shanghai University tomorrow Cao!" I patted him on the back before leaving the apartment. I took out my phone, "Rose, you there?" without calling I just looked at the black screen.
"Master, I heard everything, I will prepare your stay and will contact the University," I nodded and put the phone back in my pockets. "Emma lets leave.". Walking down the stairs I heard some noise, once I reached the ground, I found the street filled up.
Reporters were flashing their cameras and getting closer by the second, but the guards are stopping them. "Mr. Ace! We would like to know what brings you here today?" A young reporter suddenly appeared after he avoided the guards. "Stop that!" The guard was about to pull him back, "It is ok, Captain Jax" I stopped him from pulling the reporter.
"Thank you Mr. Ace" The young reporter spoke from his heart as this was an opportunity for him, "To answer your question, I came to visit someone that took care of me during my childhood" I answered him with a smile.
The reporters that had their writing mode ready began to scribble, "Uhm, Mr. Ace can we get any updates if you plan to stay in Shanghai for a while?" The young reporter had the mic close to my face. "Well, how about you wait until tomorrow?" I smiled as I answered him.
"Ok, everyone I need to leave, we will see each other tomorrow" I looked at Jax and nodded. The people made way for me as I entered the car and drove away towards the hotel. "Emma, tell me, what do you think about this kind of life?" I asked Emma as I held her hands in the car.
"Hm, Not bad if it is with you" Emma smiled as she laughed. She was ignored like a plague before, no one wanted her but now… the world wants to know how. I smiled, and as we were driving, I noticed a kid on the street looking at the car. "Stop the car, Jax!" I hurriedly shouted, and when the car stopped, I ran to the kid.

The kid was surprised, he began to mutter some things in Mandarin while shaking, "Rose, translate!", "Yes, Master." A few seconds later Rose began to repeat his words "Sorry, I won't do it again, don't beat me."
Fucking hell! Why does he look familiar to me? "Kid, where is your home?" I asked him while Rose translated. He pointed towards an apartment, I walked with him towards the apartment and saw a small girl sitting outside while hugging her knees. After reaching her, I began to hear some screams coming from inside the house. I kicked the door open, and when I entered I was shocked, it was one of the orphan girls that were with me.
"Stop that!" I rushed towards the man that was hitting her and punched him in the stomach. "Rose, Call the police and the ambulance fast!" I held her on my hands as she was about to fall. The little kids began to cry as they saw their mother hurt. "Boss, want us to take care of him?" Captain Jax appeared while Emma held on the two children.
This girl was the same as me, she didn't come to the last meeting, and sadly I forgot her. "Emma, take them to the car and wait there" I slowly put Angela down on the coach and saw that she fainted. "Jax, watch her until the ambulance comes." I pulled back my sleeves and went towards the man who was in pain. He began to shout at me, I slapped him hard.
"Rose, translate to him this words, what is your relationship with her and why are you hitting her?", Rose began translating from the phone speakers, and the man face changed when he looked at who I am. "Fuck you! This slut is mine, and I will do anything to her!", Rose translated.
Good, good! I felt angry, I pulled him out and saw the police cars, I threw him at the police. The police immediately recognized me and when they saw Jax carrying a woman they knew it was abuse. They took away the man and sent Angela to the hospital, I had a headache because the cops wanted to take the kids away but Emma held on them which kept the cops away.
"Let's take them with us until their mother is back," I said to Emma who nodded immediately with misty eyes. "Rose, keep me updated on her situation," I waited for a minute before Rose said ok.
Reaching the hotel, I didn't bother with the guests who greeted me, I took the elevator to my room and finally reached the presidential suite. "Emma, wash them up and… Jax get those kids some clothes." Going towards the sofa, I sat down and sighed. After an hour, the kids wore robes until Jax arrived with their clothes.
They looked depressed, but Emma tried her best to satisfy their needs by cooking for them and playing. "Emma, I will go visit the hospital fast, take care of them until I come back." I stood up and left with Jax towards Shanghai International Hospital. It took us fairly 45 minutes until we arrived due to the traffic and once we arrived, I noticed that there was a lot of people.

"Jax, take a break, I will stay here for a while," Jax nodded as he drove off after dropping me. Many people noticed me, but no one interrupted me as I had a scary face. "Rose, which room is she in?", I asked Rose via the earphones that I put on "Room 1304".
Going to Angela room, I noticed several doctors entering and exiting. I smiled and entered the room, Angela who had marks all over her body looked at me and smiled "Thank you." I waved it off as I took a chair and sat next to her.
"Sorry for not helping you" I bowed my head in shame, she was one of the few people that actually could be called my friends, but I treated myself as the lonely kid to ignore them and not put them in trouble.
"Its ok, how are my children?" Angela asked while she was still smiling. The sunlight shined on her face, and I got depressed, "They are in fine hands" I looked at her, "What are you doing here?" I knew she wasn't from China. "I married and came here" her smile began to fade.
She was a good girl, a very good girl but others bullied her as they did to me. "Are you satisfied with living here?" I asked her with sadness. "No, but my kids have nowhere to go." She looked out of the window. "Ace, I remember getting the call about the meeting." She giggled as she spoke, "At that time I was studying, and life was good for me."
She held my arms as she looked at me, "Can you take care of my kids?" She asked as if she was going to leave this world. "I will, but you are coming with me." I looked at her with seriousness and answered her. "No, I will…" before she could continue speaking I got angry, "I will protect you, I will protect you and your children as for your husband… I will kill him".
The black aura leaked out of me for a second. "Ace, I…" She began to tear up, "Rest first, your children are waiting" not allowing her to continue, "Doctor!" I shouted, "Hm? Yes?" A doctor that heard me came in, but when he saw me, he stood straight.
"Take her to the best room you have, call your president too" I didn't look at him while talking to him. "Yes! I will do that immediately" He ran out of the room, and several nurses entered. "Angela, just rest and heal your wounds as for the rest leave it on me." I left the room after speaking to her and waited outside, the nurses began to move her out of the room towards the elevators before taking her to the best room.
I followed them from behind and stood out of the VIP room, the president and several important people came forward, "Mr. Ace! Such an honor to have you here" The president talked weirdly as his English was a bit broken up. "Thank you, I want you to take care of Mrs. Angela Brown…" I stopped talking and then continued "The highest level of care you can provide." I looked at the president with a sharp look.
He shuddered and then nodded his head "Of course, a friend of yours is a friend of ours" He commanded a few doctors to enter and check up on her. "I will be visiting later, if the quality of your doctors is good, I might consider donating later on.", "Yes, we will do our best!".
After leaving the hospital, I began to walk outside, took out a cig and smoked while walking in the sunlight. After an hour of walking, I reached Shanghai University, I entered and ignored the shocked people going towards the business department. Knocking twice on the door I heard an old voice say something in Mandarin, I entered and whoever was sitting stood up.
"Oh, Mr. Ace! Sit down please!" The old man asked me respectfully as he came towards me and asked me to sit down. "Thank you" I took a seat and looked at him, "I want to teach in your department, one year… Two semesters".
The old man smiled, "Yes, of course, even though our semester has begun, we can allow you to take a course here. He took out some papers and began writing on them, "Mr. Ace, do you have any papers with you so that we can finalize the paper?". I smiled and told him "You will receive it later, I will begin teaching tomorrow and please do not tell anyone" I stood up and left back to the hotel via a cab.
Opening the room door, I saw Emma sitting next to the sleeping children, I took off my tie and sat the opposite side of her. "Are there mother ok?" she asked worried, "Yes, she will be fine" I slowly fixed the kids hair and stood up before going to the balcony. The sun was slowly setting as the night was upon us.
