Night was getting late, I was very sleepy. If Meihua didn't say that Zhiqiang Wangye would come tonight, I would have slept. I opened my bedroom's window which was covered by the wind. Through the window, I could see the night sky filled with stars.

I like to see stars at night like now. I can let go of my longing to my brother with seeing stars like now. I remember my older brother explained the stars position in the sky. He said that these stars told him the direction in the middle of the ocean on a dark night.

For merchants who sail the sea like him, these stars have great role. Not only telling directions, these stars tell about the season. He knew the time to start sailing by seeing these stars position.

"Gege (brother), do you know that at this moment, I'm in a big problem," I said, imagining my brother's face.

"Because of Zhiqiang Wangye's help, my body's condition is now getting healthier. However, I was worried that our father would hear rumors circulating about me. He will definitely be sad, "I sighed.

I remember Imperial Doctor Li's words. He said that I have to accept Internal Power from Zhiqiang Wangye three more times again. However, rumors that circulating in the capital city made me hesitate to continue this treatment again.

"What are you looking at?" A question rang in my ears and surprised me. I turned around and saw Zhiqiang Wangye already in my room. I sighed to reduce my shock. His footsteps were not heard. Proof that he has high internal power.

"Just looking at the stars, Wangye," I answered and walked over to him who had sat on one of the chairs in my room. I sat down after pouring tea into the cup for him. He accepted the cup and drank it. My sleepiness disappeared instantly because of his sudden appearance.

"The expression on your face shows that you have a problem," he said. I sighed. I can't say that he is the source of my problem. He had made me seriously injured because of his misunderstanding. Then, now I am became a gossip matter because of his help.

"Did you not hear strange news circulating in the Capital City, Wangye?" I asked him.

"Strange news?" He looked at me with confused expression. I know that this prince doesn't care about what people say about him. I knocked on the desk slowly because I was restless. I was reluctant to tell the gossip I heard to him.

"Tell me!" He asked me. I nodded my head and stopped knocking on the table.

"They say that I am your woman," I said softly. I can feel my cheeks getting hot. At first, he was silent, as if he did not understand the meaning of my words. Then his brow wrinkled. Finally he laughed.

"You? My woman? "He said after he finished laughing. I felt humiliated because he laughed at me.

"I don't like a woman who is valiant, bluntly and arrogant like you," he gave an explanation that made me even more embarrassed. I know that he doesn't like women with characters like me. The woman he likes is a woman who is graceful, gentle and friendly. Xiaoying is a woman like that. She is very feminine.

"I'm not arrogant," I corrected his words.

"I also don't like arrogant men, get angry quickly, don't want to apologize and like to take decision without thinking deeply. A man with a such traits like that will only make me dizzy, "I insinuated. He smiled at my words. I know that he is smiling not because he is happy. He was annoyed at my words. He smiled like that just to mocking me.

"I think that you should not give your internal power to me again. I don't want the gossip to get bigger then my father hears the gossip. I don't want him to be sad, "I said frankly. He frowned.

"You don't want to get well?" he asked me in low tone.

"Of course I want to recover. However, I don't want to be gossip anymore. I will go from this Wangfu in day after tomorrow. Actually, I want to go from this Wangfu tomorrow. However, I have to prepare my preparative. Because of it's, I think that I leave in day after tomorrow, "I said my decision and try to explanate it to him.

"Have you thought it deeply?"

"Of course yes," I lied to him. I just started thinking about it since I heard the story from Meihua. I didn't thought deeply but I feel that is great decision.

"I agree," he replied. I feel relieved to hear his words. At least this time, this arrogant man will no longer impose his will.

"I'll have the servant prepare your needs," he said then he stood up. I followed his action and stood up.

"Thank you for your understanding, Wangye. Thank you for your help during this time, "I say thanks in a position of respect. Maybe this is our last time to meet. So I think that this time I have to say my thankfulness.

However, a quick movement hit my shoulder. This arrogant prince pressed my nerves with his finger again. I lost my energy. He lifted my body and carried my body to the bed.

"Jerk! What are you doing? "I was angry. I want to beat him, but my body has no energy. He undresses me again.

"I will give my internal power for the last time," he said calmly. I feel my cheeks are very hot.

"Your action is tantamount to abuse me," I shouted. I had refused his help, but he still insisted on his will. Again!

"I am a person who doesn't like to stop when my work isn't done yet," he put his hands on my back. I can feel the internal power entering my body.

"After all, you're not a woman in my eyes," he gave an explanation that made me embarrassed and annoyed at once.

"Make your body relax," he gave me an order. Even though I'm angry, I have no other choice. I obeyed his words. I tried to relax my body. I increasingly feel the internal power of Zhiqiang Wangye.

However, when I was calm and half sleepy, someone broke into my room. That person broke the roof of my room. A man in black clothes and a face covered with a black mask immediately pointed a sword at Zhiqiang Wangye's neck.

"Who are you?" Zhiqiang Wangye asked after successfully dodging the attack. He took my sword that I put on the table. Then he pointed my sword at the intruder.

"What did you do to my daughter? Is a prince worthy to do this? "The person who barged in asked. He opened his face cover.

I was surprised after seeing the intruder's face.

"Father!" I said in a loud voice in surprise.

"General Zhou Jianjun?" Zhiqiang Wangye said.

Hearing his words, I was surprised. Is this prince having an eye sore? Why is he calling my father as General and my father's name is not Jianjun. His name is Jianyu. Then since when did my father can use the sword?

"Liu Fang," my father walked over to me and pressed my nerves. However, because I received Zhiqiang Wangye's internal power imperfectly, my body became limp. Father immediately took the blanket and covered my body with the blanket.

His face turned red. He must have misunderstood of my situation.

"This is not what the General thinks," Zhiqiang Wangye explained. However, my father did not want to hear. He raised his sword again. The fight happened.

"Father, stopped!" I shouted. However, my father ignored my words. What I feared happened, many guards came and wanted to attack my father.

"You stopped," Zhiqiang Wangye shouted so that his bodyguards did not attack my father. My father who was angry, did not care about the situation and continued to attack Zhiqiang Wangye.

"Father, Zhiqiang Wangye helped me. He is giving me internal power! "I shouted with all my might. I hope that my father hears my words.

My wish is fulfilled.

My father stopped and looked at me. He doesn't seem to believe my words. I tried to sit down. The blanket covering my body fell.

"Turn around!" Zhiqiang Wangye shouted so that his bodyguards turned around. I feel very ashamed of my current situation.

"Father misunderstood me," I pulled the blanket and covered my body again.

"Your situation is like that! Then you say that I misunderstood? "

"He is helping me!"

"Help you? I feel he is taking the advantage in your condition! "My father refused my explanation.

"General Jianjun, I'm just helping your daughter," Zhiqiang Wangye tried to give an explanation.

"You must take responsibility!" My father raised his sword again to Zhiqiang Wangye.

"What?" he asked my father.

"You have to marry my daughter!" My father said.

"What!" Zhiqiang Wangye and I shouted the same words.
