  Xue’er’s emotions were not quite stable and she was extremely afraid of doctors in their white gowns.

  The moment they took a step towards her, she would scream hysterically and reel back sharply as if in immense pain.

  She only slowly calmed down after Mu Sihan entered the ward and comforted her for a long while.

  He let the nurse help her take a shower to warm her up. It was only after that that a semblance of her original appearance could be seen after she changed into clean clothes.

  Although there were bruises on her face, her skin was still fair, though it was so fair it made her look sick. Just one look was enough to know that she had not been under the sun in a long time.

  Mu Sihan stood by the bed as he stared at the woman, who had shrunk into a corner and had tears on her long eyelashes. He pursed his thin lips as his voice was hoarse, “Xue’er, where have you been all these years?”


  Xue’er shivered as she buried her face into her arms that were wrapped around her knees. She said timidly, “Ah Han, I don’t want to be in the hospital. I’m scared, they’ll hurt me……”


  Mu Sihan walked in front of Xue’er and he squatted down. He patted her arm lightly, “I’m here. No one will dare to hurt you.”


  “They will!” All of a sudden, she became very agitated. “I’ve been locked up in the hospital by them before. They would give me injections and force feed me medicine everyday and they would abuse me if I didn’t take the medicine. I don’t want to see them, they’re all monsters!”


  Xue’er looked around at the white walls around her. Her pupils constricted immediately when she caught the doctors and nurses that were passing by outside the room and her body trembled even more, “Look, the monsters are here again. Ah……!”


  She suddenly pushed him away with her strength, probably having been triggered by something and she started to climb up onto the ledge of the window. “They won’t be able to catch me if I jump down from here.”


  Mu Sihan reacted immediately and caught her from behind, before he carried her down forcefully.

  Pressing the button by the button for the doctor, they put her under sedation to prevent her from doing anything drastic……

  When Xue’er woke up again, she was in a luxurious, palace-styled princess room that was overflowing in pink.

  She looked around her and felt that it seemed extremely familiar, however she could not remember exactly where she was.

  “You’re awake.” The man’s low and mature voice rang from behind her. Xue’er turned back and saw the man, who was dressed in a white shirt and black suit pants, standing not too far away. Tears rolled down from her eyes. “Did you see how hideous I was?”


  The man walked towards the bed and took out the handkerchief that had two snowflakes sewn on it to wipe her tears for her. “Tell me what happened to you over the past few years.”


  Xue’er sat on the bed as she leaned against the bed frame. She hugged her knees with both her hands as her sharp chin rested on her slender arms. She said with a shaky voice, “Even since that thing happened between your older brother and I, I’d developed slightly depression and felt like everything was not going smoothly for me.

  “I was also often bullied by people when I was working in the broadcasting company. You were building your career in S Country back then and I couldn’t find anyone to confide in. It was getting more and more painful for me and I missed you badly when my emotions acted up that day, which was why I made the last-minute decision to look for you.

  “However, I fell unconscious the moment I sat on the taxi and found myself in a mental hospital when I woke up. I wasn’t crazy but they kept insisting that I was! It was like a prison there, and they abused me whenever I wanted to run away.”


  Mu Sihan furrowed his eyebrows tightly as he stared at her arms that were covered in scars, “Then how did you escape this time?”


  Xue’er’s arms around her body tightened as her face paled. Her lips trembled badly as she stammered pitifully, “I was locked up by them for a few years, and they would give me injections and medicine forcefully everyday to make my mental state worse. I knew that I would die there if I continue to stay there……”
