  Yan Rusheng had already closed his eyes, and he lost all consciousness.

  This was the first time she had seen him asleep, and her head was thumping furiously.

  Bai Jing clenched her teeth in determination as she wrapped her arms around Yan Rusheng’s waist once more. She dragged him towards room 303.

  In the private room, Xuxu was still anxiously waiting for Yan Rusheng.

  Although she was anxious, she remembered his

  earlier on, and so she whispered to Su Yue, “Yueyue, can you go check on your third brother?”


  “Okay.” Su Yue nodded and stood up.

  She went to the gents but it seemed empty.

  “Third Brother!” she shouted but no one responded.

  There wasn’t any sound at all.

  Su Yue was puzzled and she eliminated the possibility of Yan Rusheng still inside.

  So, she walked out.

  She stood at the entrance of the gents and glanced left, right, and straight ahead.

  Oh, dear, which direction did she come from just now?

  She couldn’t remember where she came from, so she randomly chose a direction.

  She peered at the number on the doors as she walked.

  300…… 301…… 302……

  Something wasn’t right. Their room was 316, and it wasn’t the right direction.

  She was about to retrace her steps.

  A familiar voice sounded ahead of her.

  “Third Brother, walk slowly.”


  It was Bai Jing’s voice. Su Yue frowned, looking shocked. Third Brother?

  Bai Jing and Third Brother were together?

  She swiftly turned around and marched towards her voice. She had no idea why she trod lightly as she got nearer.

  She reached room 303 and the door was about to shut when she caught a last fleeting glimpse of a girl.

  “Bai Jing!” Su Yue widened her eyes, and her heart seemed to shred to pieces at that instant.

  She bolted for the door and forcefully swung it open.

  The girl was shocked beyond words.

  Their eyes met and both of them froze.

  “Bai Jing…… you……”


  Su Yue slowly raised her hand to point at Yan Rusheng. He was slumped against Bai Jing. Su Yue’s eyes instantly welled up with tears.

  Bai Jing was as white as a sheet of paper as she repeatedly shook her head. She stammered as she tried to explain, “Su Yue…… listen to me. It’s not…… what you have seen.”


  Su Yue’s face fell. “Do not talk to me.”


  She glared at Bai Jing and her glare was cold and murderous.

  Bai Jing immediately let go of Yan Rusheng and he fell to the floor. She raised her feet towards Su Yue and closed the door behind her.

  She then tried to hold Su Yue’s hand, but Su Yue flung her hand away. “Don’t touch me!”


  Su Yue was screaming as she stared at the floor, avoiding Bai Jing’s face.

  Bai Jing started to cry as she expounded, “Su Yue, it’s really not what you have just seen. I saw your third brother lying on the floor earlier on when I was on the way to the ladies. I wanted to bring him back to the private room……”


  Su Yue’s eyes were huge with rage and she bellowed, “Bai Jing! I knew you’ve changed. I’m not an idiot! But you are my only friend and I can’t bear to lose you. I wanted you to have a better life so I asked my third brother and third sister-in-law to help you.”


  She teared up as well as she said in a choked voice, “But I’ve never imagined that you would fall in love with my third brother.”


  That day during breakfast, she kept stealing glances across the table. She had assumed that she was looking at her brother instead of her third brother.
