Chapter 28 - 27

Just like that Mei Ling had stayed in the hospital for two days with Ai Bao stuck to her like glue , he wouldn't let her work or do a thing, in the end he'll just earn a glare as Mei Ling was not one to whine but if she did he'd have loved that very much.

At past six after Mei Ling threatened to never ever see each other again he finally agreed to get her discharged of course this wouldn't have worked normally if not that she had made the threat the day before and had refused to talk to him ever since.

Once they turned the car on he adjusted Mei Ling's seat and and helped her in putting on her seat belt before turning on the music she liked listening to, in less than a few minutes she slept off snoring slightly, this had Ai Bao chuckling uncontrollably, She's really cute! He thought to himself.

Grabbing her hands he entwined it with his and gave the back of hers a light peck before continuing to drive, after knowing that the man was back here in Hangzhou his mind wasn't settled so he had concluded it was better for her to move in and that way he could also keep that fucker Lu Yang far away from her , it was simply killing two birds with one stone.

Thinking about this he smiled and gave himself a pat, you're one smart man Ai Bao!

Some minutes later they arrived at his mansion and immediately Mei Ling woke up, she looked around with a confused expression on her face unaware that a certain someone was taken in her reactions while trying not to smile, did she always have to be so cute?

"What are you looking for?" The man's deep voice startled Mei Ling as she let out a shriek snapping her head towards the direction of the voice.

"Darn it" she cursed as she glared at him patting her chest, what kind of idiot was she in.......

"What? Did I scare you?" She eyed him and Instead of shying away like any other person would do he chuckled and ruffled her hair.

"What am I doing at your mansion?"she asked as she grabbed his hand to pull herself out of his car, he grabbed the other things and started pulling her inside.

"I just asked you a question" she snapped, these days people had been getting in her nerves easily but that wasn't entirely true, she wasn't scared of the enemies that could pose a threat to her but the person she feared the most had said he was back, if he texted her that only meant he was coming for her and she'd be lying if she said she wasn't scared, infact she was terrified as she was not anticipating his next step , she had been monitoring his movements in italy, he was currently a mob boss and there was a serious price in his head for people to get him.

At least before he left he wasn't even aware that the mafia existed and he was that brutal, now he was even a mob boss and his clan was rapidly growing and would soon butt heads with theirs,it's not that they couldn't take care of his clan but they had to tread carefully, his family may not be prestigious but that didn't mean they could mess around with them they might receive a fatal blow even though they can get back on their feet ten times stronger, it was not a mission they could gamble with.

Her greatest fear was that since he texted her he must still have that possessive and obsessive character and she was sure he'd try to attack Ai Bao, what if something did happen to him? This scared her a lot, what if he started by attacking her parents or the Lee elders, she'd really hate herself.

She had to think of something and do it fast.

"Don't you dare think about going after him alone!" His voice snapped her out of her reverie, as surprise filled her face before she masked it.

She hadn't even realized that they were in his room and she was sitting on the bed.

Ai Bao had known she'd be scared especially for him as he noticed how she had been falling into dazes in the hospital looking distant and nodding her head as if making a resolve to do something then she'd sigh.

He decided to think like her and he knew his Mei Ling could sometimes be impulsive and may or may not decide to go after him herself so he figured he should say it, from when they stepped into his house she had been thinking then nodding and then she gave the signature sigh.

When he brought it up the surprised look on her face had confirmed his suspicion, he sighed and sat beside her holding her hands.

"Mei Ling, you don't have to be scared" she looked away and bowed her head slightly as she knew she wasn't going to listen to him.

"Who says I'm scared? I've gotten braver over the years" she muttered as her voice was getting thick with tears threatening to spill out.

He pulled her into a hug and that's when she started to cry, what kind of man was he to read into her thoughts so easily,bit wasn't fair!

"I know you're scared and more than anything you don't want anybody to get hurt because you think it's all your fault but it isn't, it's not your fault that you were young and in love, it's not your fault that someone took your naivety for granted and decided to hurt you, it's not your fault that you kept loving even after what they did, it's totally not your fault so don't you dare think about fighting alone because I'm here and I definitely won't let you, okay?" She sobbed and he patted her back as he lent her his shoulder to cry on.

He was definitely good with words and if it were a different situation she'd have listened to him but not this, if something happened to him or any other person she loves just because she had to tread carefully she'd never ever forgive herself besides he didn't have to know about her plans he'd just hear that Li jie had died and that was that.

Now she had to have courage, she had learnt skills and she felt like it was time to put them to use if he was going to die it'd be by her hands and no one else's, that was a promise to herself.
