‘Big brother Du!’ Yuan Gun Gun called. She couldn’t escape Hao Yan Che’s death grip. ‘Let go of me. How can you hit someone? You’re hurting me.’

Na Liu Ting Du wiped blood off his lips.

‘Let go of Gun Gun,’ Na Liu Ting Du said.

‘Why should I?’ Hao Yan Che asked.

Na Liu Ting Du got off the ground, held Yuan Gun Gun’s arm and Hao Yan Che held Yuan Gun Gun’s other arm.

‘I don’t mind pulling off her arm,’ Hao Yan Che said.

Yuan Gun Gun stared in disbelief at Hao Yan Che.

Na Liu Ting Du aimed a punch at Hao Yan Che’s face, Hao Yan Che dodged the punch and pushed Yuan Gun Gun out of the way.

Yuan Gun Gun stumbled back, fell down and scraped her arms and legs. She looked up and saw Hao Yan Che and Na Liu Ting Du’s fierce fight.

‘Don’t fight!’ Yuan Gun Gun said.

Yuan Gun Gun stood up. She couldn’t watch Hao Yan Che use full force to attack Na Liu Ting Du. She ran to them and stood in front of Na Liu Ting Du to protect Na Liu Ting Du’s face from Hao Yan Che’s punch.

‘Ah…’ Yuan Gun Gun cried out and spat out blood.

‘Gun Gun!’ Na Liu Ting Du called and braced Yuan Gun Gun’s fall.

Hao Yan Che saw Yuan Gun Gun’s spat out blood, and fisted his hands. She chose to risk her life to protect Na Liu Ting Du.

‘Gun Gun, can you hear me?’ Na Liu Ting Du asked. ‘Gun Gun, open your eyes.’

Na Liu Ting Du looked at Hao Yan Che’s cold eyes.

‘If anything happens to Gun Gun, I’ll bury you with her,’ Na Liu Ting Du said.

‘I’ll be waiting,’ Hao Yan Che said.

‘You!’ Na Liu Ting Du said.

Na Liu Ting Du let Yuan Gun Gun lie on the ground to punch Hao Yan Che’s hateful face. In that moment Yuan Gun Gun’s eyes were closed, but her hand reached for Na Liu Ting Du’s arm.

‘Big brother Du… don’t hit him,’ Yuan Gun Gun said weakly.

Yuan Gun Gun’s words made Hao Yan Che freeze.

‘Gun Gun,’ Na Liu Ting Du called.

‘Big brother Du… it’s painful… take me home,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.

Na Liu Ting Du carried Yuan Gun Gun to the car.

‘Gun Gun, don’t be scared,’ Na Liu Ting Du said. ‘I’ll take you home.’

‘Yuan Gun Gun, do you want to see what happens if you leave?’ Hao Yan Che threatened.

Na Liu Ting Du kept walking to the car.

‘Big brother Du… put me down,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.

Na Liu Ting Du’s eyes darkened, and he carefully put Yuan Gun Gun back on the ground.

Hao Yan Che stepped toward Yuan Gun Gun.

‘Give me your hand,’ Hao Yan Che said.

Yuan Gun Gun forced herself to open her eyes, and stretched out her arm. Hao Yan Che held her hand, pulled her to his chest and carried her in his arms.

‘Gun Gun, do you want to go with him?’ Na Liu Ting Du asked.

‘Big brother Du… he’s my young master,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.

‘Gun Gun, what if he’s not your young master?’ Na Liu Ting Du asked.

‘But he is,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.

Na Liu Ting Du lost a part of Yuan Gun Gun’s heart. He couldn’t turn back time, Yuan Gun Gun gave a part of her heart to Hao Yan Che.

‘Big brother Du…’ Yuan Gun Gun said.

Yuan Gun Gun couldn’t say anything else to Na Liu Ting Du because Hao Yan Che carried her to the Hao Mansion faster than the wind.

Na Liu Ting Du sat in the car. He had wanted to ask Yuan Gun Gun if his place in her heart gave him a chance to be with her.

‘Gun Gun, why didn’t you wait for me?’ Na Liu Ting Du asked himself. ‘Why did you let someone else in your heart when I finally accepted I love you? Gun Gun, am I too late? Will I always be your big brother in your heart?’

In the Hao Mansion, Mrs Chen was frightened to see Yuan Gun Gun’s injured face.

‘Young master… Gun Gun’s face,’ Mrs Chen said.

‘She brought it upon herself,’ Hao Yan Che said.

Mrs Chen was startled by Hao Yan Che’s iciness.

Yuan Gun Gun’s body tensed, she was hurt by Hao Yan Che’s words.

‘Aunty Chen, bring an ice pack and a towel to my room,’ Hao Yan Che ordered.

Hao Yan Che carried Yuan Gun Gun straight to the master bedroom, and laid her on the bed. Seconds later, Mrs Chen brought an ice pack wrapped in a towel to the master bedroom and gave it to Hao Yuan Che. Yuan Gun Gun moved her head side to side, but she couldn’t stop Hao Yan Che applying the ice pack on Yuan Gun Gun’s swollen cheek.

‘No… no… ah… it hurts,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.

‘I dare you to move your head again,’ Hao Yan Che said.

Yuan Gun Gun laid still on the bed, and the tears she held back flowed down her cheeks.

‘Hold it yourself,’ Hao Yan Che said.

Yuan Gun Gun held the ice pack on her swollen cheek. Hao Yan Che opened the first aid kit, and began disinfecting the scratches on her arms and legs.

‘No… it hurts,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.

Hao Yan Che ignored Yuan Gun Gun’s plea, and applied iodine on her arms and legs.
