Jingzhe left the space camp earlier than Mei Mei and he went home to prepare himself for the day he had long dreaded. Time had come to admit the truth to Mei Mei and let fate take its course.
But, he was frightened, so he called his mother and asked her to rush home. In his mind, he was about to fight a war and his mother was his strongest strategist.
He was in the foyer when his mother entered the house. He had a glass of wine in his shaky right hand and a kitten playfully biting his left foot big toe.
"You look lost." She told him.
"Mom...." he raised his head and cried out.
Madam Feng was startled. The image of her son pouting with red eyes that screamed "I am in trouble" had not been seen since the day she first saw him when he was saved from Sword Island.
"What happened?" She sat down next to him, "Did you get yourself into new trouble? What is it? Tell me and I will get you out of it before it becomes worse."
