"Turn the car around. Right now !", Xi Yuan clenched his fists and looked out of the the window. The sky was covered by the dark clouds all of a sudden , indicating that it was going to rain soon. Out there , gradually , arose a powerful storm of wind.

There was one more. The storm. Inside him. Inside his mind and his heart. A destructive storm. 

Xi Yuan felt a heavy wave of fear , of uncertainty , hit him hard. It was petrifying. He didn't knew what to do ? How to do ? He didn't even wanted to consider Bei Ming's proposal. All he knew was that he wanted her. In front of his eyes. Locked in his embrace. 

"But Bro...", Xi Fang looked at his brother , startled by his sudden command ,"The emergency in Mexico. What about it ?"

Xi Yuan kept staring outside the window as his sound resounded in the silent car ,"She knows."

"Why didn't you told us about it earlier , Kiddo ? We would've talked to him.", Lu Wei sighed as he pulled the girl into a warm hug. 

"Why didn't you told Yuan about it , Xinghe ?", Mo Zixuan questioned , as he patted the sobbing girl , on her head , helplessly. 

"What was there for us to talk about ? I couldn't. I couldn't listen to him tell me that he was going far away from me. I didn't had the courage to hear it.", the girl whispered weakly ,"I was in no place to try to stop him either. I can just watch him go. 

"Most importantly , he is already so concerned about me. It would've broken him to see me weaken up for him. He would've felt so guilty. He would have definitely blamed himself for leaving me when I needed him the most.

"I didn't had the strength to say goodbye to him on his face , brother. I couldn't bear to see him go through that regret , that guilt. I..."

"So you decide to not even say a goodbye to me ?"

A familiar deep , magnetizing yet distant voice resonated across the private ward , making the girl freeze in her brother's arms , her eyes staring at the door. He was standing right there. Her Yuan. It seemed like he knew about it and that he was upset with her. Angry maybe. That she hid it from him. Maybe it was better that way. Maybe an arguement could make it easy on him.

"Tell me , Xinghe.", the man strode towards the girl's bed , his fists still clenched ,"You decide to not even talk about it to me ? You do realize that we share this , right ? This relationship."

"Yuan , listen to me.", the girl seperated herself from her Bro Lu and sat up straight.

"What do you want me to listen. That you didn't wanted me to see you break apart ? Honey , I have seen that side of you. Not once. Not twice. Multiple times. And never have I ever , ever despised that vulnerable 'you'. Why would I ? Instead , it makes me wonder how strong you've been to hold on to that much pain inside you. I admire you because of that.


"But do you think what happened today was fair to me ? You knew that I might not return back from City A. That there was a possibility that I would've went to Mexico diectly. So you lived your every moment with me. You cherished the kiss we had before I left. To the fullest. While I didn't even knew that it could be the last one. 

"Was it , in any way , fair to me ? To your Yuan ?"

As Xi Yuan's every word reached the girl's ears , the feeling of guilt made its way through her heart. Her hands started to tremble , her eyes stinging with tears. He was right. She was being too insensitive towards him. Unintentionally , but she was hurting him.

"Okay , Xinghe. Calm down first.", as he looked at the girl's condition worsening , Xi Yuan couldn't bother saying anything else to her and sat down on the edge of her bed , taking her into his arms ,"I am sorry. I am so sorry. I made you feel like that. I didn't mean it , baby. Please calm down."

"Stop being so good to me , Yuan.", the girl cried ,"I don't deserve it. I don't. And I am sorry. I thought.. that it would be more painful for you... to see me break down when you leave. So I.... But that was wrong. I am really sorry."

Xi Yuan waited for the girl to stop crying before he placed a soft kiss against her forehead ,"Xinghe... I don't know what will happen next. I don't want to go. I am afraid. Scared. To leave you. To leave us. And I was really hoping that we could talk about it. I wanted to be by your side throughout this time. "

"But you will go anyway , won't you ?", the girl smiled amid her tears ,"You are my Yuan. I know you. You won't feel at ease , until and unless you make the murderers of those children pay back. If it was about money , you wouldn't have bothered to even pay heed to it. But this involves life and health of thousands of students. I know you will have to go.

"And look at the irony. I can't be demanding or unreasonable here. I know what life means , more than anything. I have seen wars and deaths , more than anyone , after all."

"But I don't want...", Xi Yuan protested. 

"Its alright , baby.", the girl wiped her tears away and pecked the man upon his lips tenderly ,"Let's not give false hopes to ourselves. There really is no other option left.

"Just promise me one thing. You will help me protect this relationship. No matter how difficult it is. No matter how challenging it is. Promise me , Yuan."

Xi Yuan stared at the girl with an expression of astonishment , surprise. He couldn't believe she was the same girl who had rejected him once. She was the same woman who had taken one entire year to say 'Yes' to him.

He couldn't believe that the same girl was so determined , so hopeful about their future , about them.

"I promise.", the man replied , without any second thought.

It was still so surreal. The two of them. One , the Military Chief of the Country. Other , the Ruling King of the Business World. Walking onto the most difficult stage of their life together. Into a long-distance relationship.
