So, this man has really gone mad,
He heard the voice and it felt oddly similar to the voice of Yu meiren,
He was puzzled, his instinct shouted that she was saying all of this but his logical reasoning stood as a pillar in between.
The doctor who had reviewed his documents advised him,
"If you don't feel any discomfort you can now be discharged"
The antagonist nodded, shifting his eyes towards Yu meiren, who was scanning his body. At the side of his eyes, he could see the doctors leaving the room.
It was only Yu meiren and him left in the ward, alone and awkward for him.
"Thank you so much for saving me." He sincerely expressed his gratitude, easing the air in the room.
"Mention not" She smiled and waved it off, while in her mind she thought,
There's much more that's going to happen, you're lucky to have me with you
He observed her expressions which seemed genuine, but from what he heard it seemed totally opposite.
Yu meiren gestured towards the door, that she is leaving and without waiting for a response, she turned around and walked away.
Coming out of the ward,
This is the antagonist?, whose ears are rusted.
She thought, scorning the man hospitalised.
The next day
Yu meiren was standing at the counter, filling the documents for discharge, as she glanced at the man in front of her on a wheelchair.
It was the antagonist,
"Your name?" She asked him, her eyes were focused on filling that document.
"Xie Xingchen" The antagonist replied, somehow from the incident or from the very first time he saw her, whenever he gets the chance, he would look for something new in her. Something that is different and special.
Yu meiren was pushing his wheelchairs towards the car in the parking slot, followed by some bodyguards.
"Do you live close to the Magic building?" Xie Xingchen asked,
"Yes" Meiren replied, looking around as if searching for something.
Her eyes locked onto a red sports car standing opposite to their car,
But you wouldn't be able to reach there.
She thought, pushing xingchen's wheelchair to the corner window of the car.
Xingchen looked behind to check what was the thing that wouldn't let him go to the Magic building.
But everything seemed perfectly in place, guards were helping him in taking his seat.
Meiren went to the opposite side and opened the door of the car,
while suddenly the red car in front of them started and at the speed of flash, in a blink of an eye, the car crashed into them.
As if the goddess of luck was looking over her, she survived. A moment of rush, adrenaline took over her, even when she knew about what was going to happen. Fortunately, xingchen hadn't been fully seated by then and the tide turned around. Bodyguards were around him and he was seated in his wheelchair.
Everything happened in such a flash, she didn't even get a moment to see what had happened. The car was smoking and the collision of cars was evident, silence filled the place and Xingchen looked at her.
Her face was stunned, horrific and her eyes were widened. She was alright except for the few particles on her face, which was the work of the accident.
She knew about the accident, Xingchen thought
Meiren regained her senses by the voice of xingchen,
"Prepare another car." He said, as the secretary went for the car.
One of the bodyguards pushed his wheelchair forward towards meiren.
"Are you okay?" He asked, while sitting in front of her.
She nodded her head, giving herself reassurance as she thought,
I almost died,
Till then, the specifically arranged car had arrived in front of them.
The magic building arrived,
Meiren opened the car door and said,
"Thanks for dropping me off" She turned around to get off the car, while xingchen spoke,
"You've done me a much greater favor, how about I treat you lunch tomorrow, are you fine with it"
"Oh, .. yes! then on 10 tomorrow?" She said and got off.
Trying to buy me off with a lunch?,
She thought while going back, which was clearly and word-by-word heard by Xingchen.
He was in his house, in his room where he sat on his bed while holding a book, his phone on the bedside desk under the dim glossy lamp started to buzz, he picked up the call,
The person on the other end said something which made his eyebrows twist,
"Do the same with him" He added and hung up the call.
On the next day,
He was already sitting on the chair, at the restaurant waiting for meiren to arrive, he kept looking at his watch and door, then with a creak opened the door revealing his female secretary pushing the door for meiren.
His back straightened unconsciously, she seated herself opposite to him & began to say,
"Did you wait for too long?"
"No" He said, the waitress attended to them.
"What would you like to order?" She asked, excited with a look of gossip glancing at both of them.
"Duck meat soup with extra seasoning, two bowls." Xingchen ordered, and looked at meiren for her opinion.
"Your special for desert" She added on without hesitation.
The lunch went smoothly, formal and to the point as it should have been. Both of them were walking freely, outside the restaurant, taking small steps towards the parking, when suddenly a loud noise, sharp and machine-lead started to echo, mei ren looked around, familiar with the disturbance, one that rings at the time of malfunction or a warning. A red obnoxious screen popped at her wrist, on which was written,
"Warning, the target is overpowered"
That's the warning,
But the "overpowered" target was in front of her, not so harming and even a gentleman.
The familiar car once again stopped in front of the known neighbourhood, she kept moving forward away from the car while xingchen was watching her back.
Her steps were moving forward until the noise of a car moving away was heard, turning her head back she saw the spot empty.
He was gone.
Swinging her purse and running back in the opposite direction of that neighbourhood, she took off her heels while running, swaying in the air.
"Shit, I'm gonna be late!"
She panted, reaching the road where a cab was parked at the noon.
