In the depth of night, before the Sun could rise, the nervous Bing Shi was sitting inside an old truck. Rolling down the car window, she held onto a little daisy, founded at the side of the road. Taking off her gloves, she started to pluck all the poor white petals.

‘Should I meet him?’

‘Or should I not?’

.....

‘Yes...’

‘No...’

‘Yes...’

‘No...’

One petal after another flew out of the window, harmoniously.

Holding onto the last petal, the answer was No.

° Start of flashback...

° Xuan Mu, lying inside the hospital room, stared at Sharkie with detachment. When he heard the all familiar footsteps, his eyes darted towards the hospital door hastily.

° Seeing the woman who became more beautiful day by day, he shifted his gaze back to Sharkie. Hiding his emotions deep inside his heart, he asked in a sharp tone, “What are you doing here?”

° “I missed Sharkie.” Bing Shi, used to his mood swings, with a box in her hand, smiled brightly as she sat near the bed. “I tried to bake a lemon cake. You get an honor to taste my fifth attempt.”

° “...” Xuan Mu gave the box in her hand a brief glance, before looking away.

° Inside the box, there was a simple golden cake. At the bottom of the cake, a piece of lemon was elegantly placed in between the chocolate pieces.

° Bing Shi laid the cake on a plate carefully. Taking out a candle from a box, she positioned it in the middle of the cake and lit it up with a lighter. Switching of the lights, the candle illuminated the surroundings with its warm glow.

° Bing Shi placed the cake on a table for patients, sitting at a corner of the bed; she clapped her hand in excitement. “We have to celebrate this special day, because you are twenty-five, while I’m still twenty-six, huhu ??.”

° Xuan Mu’s birthday was sooner than Bing Shi’s. Bing Shi got to be older by a year for three whole days!

° Xuan Mu ignored the cake, his tone filled with loathing, “Get out.”

° Bing Shi ignored his bitter tone and sat opposite him, “Hurry ??. Make a wish.”

° Xuan Mu gritted his teeth. “Get. Out!”

° Before the candle could distinguish, Bing Shi blew it herself. Crawling down the bed, grabbing her purse, she walked out of the door.

° Xuan Mu covered his face with his arm. ‘How can I make her forget me, without hurting her?’

° Behind the door, Bing Shi blinked her eyes, a few droplets of water trickled down her cheeks down the cold floor tiles.

° ‘Does he have to change so much for my sake? Where is my obsessive and overly jealous man?’

° Per Xuan Mu’s wish, they broke up and stopped speaking and seeing each other.

° Getting a phone call from her ex-boyfriend, Bing Shi picked it up.

° “For how long are you going to stand there?” Xuan Mu asked, it’s been hours, and she was still standing there in those pain-inducing shoes.

° “Forever ??,” she sang out playfully, rubbing her eyes.

° “Go home.”

° “I was kicked out.” Bing Shi whispered, “I have nowhere to go.”

° Xuan Mu hanged upon her.

° Shrugging her shoulders, Bing Shi started to read novels on her phone. Finishing the last chapter of the story, she opened the door to see Xuan Mu having his back towards her. Noticing the second candle at the top of a cake, which had a small triangle cut off, she came around the bed, to meet a pair of glossy red eyes. Putting down her shoes, she crawled under the sheets, to be hugged tightly by his fragile pair of arms.

° End of flashback...

-Beep – beep – beep-

Woken up by a ringtone, Ren Han opened his red eyes. Not remembering the dream, he wiped down all the tears with the back of his hand. Scrunching his eyes from the bright phone light, he read the message.

00:05 AM Bing Shi: Morning. ??Meet me up at those coordinates. Bring along your people and ammunition, the more, the merrier.

Putting a tank top over the new scratch marks on his chest, Ren Han walked to the bathroom to clean his face.

The all healthy Yi Zen got a phone call from his so-called sister, who brought him so many problems, that if she appeared before him, he would probably choke her to death.

Hearing nothing, Bing Shi’s heartbeat accelerated. Vexed, she greeted the irritated man, “Morning. Did you have a good sleep?”

Hearing the genderless voice spewing out those polite words, Yi Zen wanted to choke her even more, “Do you have a death wish?”

Bing Shi apologized with an awkward laugh, “Sorry for waking you up. Should I call later?”

It was not he meant at all! The world was in chaos and she apologized for waking him up?! This was the first time Bing Shi called his number, Yi Zen turned on his night lamp and sat down on the bed, “What happened?”

“I’m afraid it’ll be too chaotic. I’m thinking of meeting up a day sooner than planned. Yi Zen, see? I’m risking my safety for yours.” Bing Shi prayed to everyone for everything to go according to her plan, “What do you think?”

Yi Zen looked at his phone if she was serious, “My safety? Don’t you mean... yours?”

“...He...he... you know me so well. But sorry to say this. I have many ways to assure my safety.”

Yi Zen scoffed, “Alone?”

Bing Shi sent him a file, “No, bring your men, weapons, rations, and tents with you. I filtered out the ones which were not infected by the rain; around two hundred would do. Try not to catch anyone’s attention. Oh, and tell your men not to kill me, the moment they see me, thank you.”

“...” Yi Zen didn’t have a choice, taking this chance to meet her, he’ll try to persuade her to change the world back to normal. Because at the moment, only Bing Shi was capable of such deeds. Just the thought of this person having so much power over everything...ugh!

She was too dangerous!
