Sally sat at her bed side, with her chin resting in her hands, and was looking at Janet, who was still unconscious on the bed.
Then, thinking of her brother's unusual look, she guessed that Daniel must be the one to blame for Janet's present condition. Sally felt that now it was even more necessary to call her mother.
When she had just taken out her phone and was just about to call her mother, Jerry came back in and handed her a box of medicine, and said, "Rub it on Janet's neck."
"OK." Sally put down her phone for the moment and then opened the box.
Jerry then stood in front of the window, and, looking outside, asked, "Do you think that this has probably something to do with Daniel?"
Sally nodded, "My brother was stone-cold drunk and was chain-smoking. And Jane is in such a rough condition that something must have happened between the two of them!"
'Oh, that's right!' suddenly realized Sally. 'My brother sneaked into Jane's car last night!'
Jerry then turned around and walked towards the door, "Where are you going?" asked Sally.
He threw a glance at her, and said, "Get even with your brother!" 'He should have thought better than to hurt my younger sister! Even he's Daniel Si, I still won't let him off so easily!' Jerry thought.
Sally immediately put down the box and stopped Jerry, "Why do we have to intervene in their own affairs? We may just make things more complicated and troublesome than they already are. And, we even haven't got our own problem sorted out clearly. Just let them be, they'll sort it out eventually."
It was difficult for an outsider to judge things when it came to love.
"What problem don't we have sorted out yet? We're doing just fine." Jerry provoked her intentionally.
Last time they argued, Sally had actively demanded for a wedding ceremony because she felt that it was shameful not to hold one after their marriage certificate was released.
And Jerry had prepared a wedding ceremony for her, but it couldn't be held because she had ran away.
Sally pinched his arm, and while she resentfully closed her eyelids, she said, "OK, it's up to you now! Never mention it again!" She had already given herself up to him, but Jerry still couldn't coax her; she now thought of him as being a bad man.
But then Jerry dragged Sally into his arms, and while he was kissing her long hair, he said, "December 6th, of the lunar calendar - that'll be the date of our wedding ceremony."
Sally was dazed, and she looked up from his arms, she saw that he was wearing a big
“Let's go and register our marriage on your birthday!”
Marrying Daniel should have been her best birthday gift, but everything was ruined the moment when she caught him sleeping with another woman on the day before her birthday.
“He’s going to marry that woman! She... was my best friend!"
he knelt and offered the brocade box to Janet, "Janet, please marry me!" he said.
Inside the box was a pink huge diamond ring, and Sally realized that it was the latest GL style.
Janet gripped her fists furiously, and she would have been really happy to accept his proposal, if nothing had happened last night.
But, now...
Janet took the box, closed it hard, and threw it towards the door, "Daniel Si, take your ring back and get out of my house!"
Then she ran up the stairs without turning her head around.
...
Jerry and Sally were really confused by what was happening.
Daniel's proposal was refused and, even worse, she didn't want to see him ever again.
When Sally returned her sense, she hastily followed Janet up to her bedroom.
And, as Daniel was leaving the mansion with a dark look painted all over his face, he heard a shout, "Daniel!" Jerry picked up the box.
And stopped Daniel.
" I think that maybe Jane really does love you after all. I have no idea of what is going on between you two, but I have the feeling that the girl will be OK with you after a few good talks."
'Could she?' Daniel smiled, now with bitterness and sarcasm.
'If she really loved me, why did she call out another man's name under me?' pondered Daniel.
Then, keeping his silence, he took back the box and then left the Shao's mansion.
On the second floor
Sally was now staring at Janet, whose eyes had become red and filled with tears. She hugged her, and said, "Jane, please don't torture yourself for nothing. If you have a problem, tell me about it, so we can solve it together."
Janet shook her head and a teardrop fell from her eye and broke on the floor.
