Seeing a person’s scars and understanding them are two very different things. It’s easy to notice a scar of someone’s body or heart but you can never understand the pain that created that scar just by seeing it. We can’t fathom how much maimed that scar is inward.

  To understand a scar, you have to be able to be utterly sincere with that person. Efforts might count in a relationship but sincerity plays a far more important role. Only with both sincerity and efforts, one can win the game of relationships.

  Ye Jie had already shown his efforts and sincerity to Xu Mey. Now, it was her turn to return the same thing that he gave her. Because a relationship becomes worthless if only a single person is putting all the efforts. He had already built a bridge between himself and Xu Mey. All that was left for her to do was; cross it all the way.

  Meanwhile, Fu Lan received the details about President Xu.

  "Madam, we have done a thorough investigation and according to our findings, President Xu is definitely not related to Xu Mey in any way possible. Xu Mey works as a small assistant in a small company. There is no way that Xu Mey would have any connection with President Xu."

  Her employee informed her and walked away. Fu Lan was contemplating the reason behind why Xu Liqing was insisting that Xu Mey was the one who had set her up. Fu Lan had been looking into all the details of Xu Mey’s whereabouts in the past days but whatever she found didn’t link up with President Xu at all.

  "Liqing, Xu Mey came back to the city from Imperial on Sunday and there is no way that she’d be able to arrange everything in such a short time. Just relax and think carefully, what did President Xu look like?" Fu Lan was trying to coax her daughter. But it further flared up Xu Liqing’s anger.

  "What the hell, mom? I’m telling you there was no President Xu. It was that useless bit*h who hates me. No one else hates me as much as she does. Isn’t it obvious that she’d be the one who ruined my image?" She screeched while glaring at her own mother.

  "Okay, okay! I’ll look more carefully. You don’t worry." Fu Lan tried to placate her but Xu Liqing knew that her mother didn’t believe her words at all. Just like everyone else, even her mother thought that she was just hallucinating.

  She stomped her foot like a kid and ran away from her mother’s grasp. She took her car and drove straight to Fu Residence.

  "Young Miss Liqing," the maid immediately ran to serve the bad-tempered princess in Fu Family.

  "Where is Shuang-Ge?" Xu Liqing asked impatiently.

  "Emm…… Young Master is in the garden." The maid barely managed to say and Xu Liqing ran towards the garden.

  Fu Shuang was enjoying his morning tea with a newspaper in his other hand when he heard a familiar voice, "Shuang-Ge!"

  He turned his face to see his only cousin running towards him with a crying face. "What’s wrong with you Liqing?" he asked placing his newspaper down.

  Xu Liqing wiped her fake tear and pitifully asked, "Haven’t you seen the news? That President Xu ruined my image. I can’t even go out of the house anymore."

  ’And yet here you are.’ He thought to himself. "How did President Xu is at fault here? You’re the one who attacked her."

  Xu Liqing was quite shocked at his tone. She was always pampered by her Shuang-Ge since she was the only cousin that he had. And he never refused her of anything but today his words were akin to scolding her.

  What she didn’t know was that the moment Fu Shuang saw the pictures of Xu Liqing with a glass shard attacking President Xu, he was furious. He was very familiar with his cousin’s attitude and personality. Therefore, for him, it was Xu Liqing’s impulsive act and when he read the report that President Xu was in an accident a few days before this incident, he was so furious that he really wanted to teach Xu Liqing a lesson. She was imprudent and he was aware of that.

  But the most distressing thing was informed to him last night when the news of President Xu dancing with her boyfriend at the anniversary party spread like wildfire. Talking to him about President Xu at this time was like sprinkling salt on his fresh wounds.

  "Shuang-Ge, do you also think that it’s my fault?" Xu Liqing was sobbing at his side.

  "I don’t care who did it. What I know is that you acted on impulse and it led to the consequences of today." He replied with a somber look.

  "Shuang-Ge, this is all that Xu Mey’s fault. She’s still jealous of me." Xu Liqing conveniently stopped talking about President Xu.

  Fu Shuang frowned. "What does this have to do with your step-sister? And can’t you just let her be at peace after all these years?"

  "Shuang-Ge, you know that she’s jealous of me." She replied in between her sobs.

  Fu Shuang pinched his brows and said, "What else do you expect her to do? Don’t forget that you took that girl’s everything. Her father…… her house…… her right to inheritance…… Everything. She has the right to hate you Liqing."

  Xu Liqing was taken aback by his tone and accusations. "Ge! I didn’t take anything from her. You know very well that she didn’t have any right on any of those things. She doesn’t even have the right be called a Xu but dad is still a very kindhearted person and that’s why she still is Xu Mey."

  Fu Shuang didn’t want to argue with her anymore. "Just get to the business. What do you want from me?"

  Xu Liqing straightened up and said, "I want you to ruin President Xu in any way possible."

  Fu Shuang instantly got up from the wicker chair and glared at Xu Liqing. "Let me warn you. If you even dared to so much as look at President Xu. The person you’ll have to face will be me. Don’t get on my bad side. You know how far I’ll go, otherwise."

  After that, he left the stunned Xu Liqing seething in her fury and walked away. Xu Liqing didn’t know what happened but she was sure that Fu Shuang won’t let her touch President Xu. But that didn’t mean she won’t hurt Xu Mey.
