Lim Yueling entered the familiar apartment and changed into her slippers.
"Do you want anything to drink? Tea? Coffer? Juice?", Cha Min asked indulgently.
"No, I'm okay. Thanks for helping me out earlier ", Lim Yueling expressed her gratitude as her face turned slightly red. She had to admit that she felt really embarrassed.
"I have told you countless times to not thank me", Cha Min chuckled softly and held her hand, "I am your fiancee. Anything that belongs to me belongs to you as well"
"I am going to take a shower first!", Lim Yueling escaped from him and ran upstairs like a hurricane.
Cha Min glanced at the disappearing tiny figure and he could not help but let out a soft laugh. His fiancee was indeed very funny.
Standing under the cold shower, Lim Yueling trembled slightly. She was however in deep thoughts that she failed to realise her entire body had turned pale.
This year, so many things had happened and sometimes she just wished she could leave this country and everything about it but there were people here drawing her back.
This evening, she had taken a few glasses of wine and had become a bit too tipsy.
A few hours ago...
Lim Yueling had wandered off into a room to rest after feeling tipsy but a few minutes later Xu Kan had walked in with a strong stench of alcohol.
"Brother in law...", Lim Yueling had frowned slightly yet greeted him politely.
"Yueling...I've waited so long for this day", Xu Kan made his way towards her, his eyes filled with desire and evil thoughts.
"What...what do you mean?", Lim Yueling had stuttered and took a few steps backwards.
"Don't pretend you slut! Don't pretend you have not been given me those seductive looks, there's no one here so there's no need to act all innocent, okay?", Xu Kan threw his suit unto the sofa and started to unbutton his shirt.
"What the f*ck do you think you are doing?", Lim Yueling yelled, her voice filled with annoyance.
Xu Kan stopped for a second, surprised to hear Lim Yueling curse at him. Wow, tonight was going to be very exciting.
"What you have always been wanting from me!", Xu Kan finally threw his shirt away and walked bare chested towards Lim Yueling.
"Don't you dare touch me with those filthy hands of yours!", Lim Yueling warned him, her eyes filled with an unknown desire.
Xu Kan ignored her words and forcefully pinned her against the wall.
A few minutes later, Xu Kan was lying on the floor groaning in pain.
"When I tell you to stay away from me, I mean it!", Lim Yueling flashed a smile at him before walking out of the room.
Xu Kan was too weak to say a word and could only helplessly watch her walk out gracefully.
...
After she was done, Lim Yueling made her way towards Cha Min's room to wish him a goodnight.
*knock!*
Cha Min immediately opened the door as if he had already been standing there waiting for her to knock.
"Min'Ah, I'm going to sleep. Have a goodnight ", said Lim Yueling briefly. She turned around to leave but Cha Min grabbed her hand.
"Yueling, I'm sorry about tonight. Everything that happened was my fault, I should have been with you the whole time. I'm sorry ", Cha Min apologised. He felt guilty about tonight's scandal.
"Min'Ah you don't have to apologise. It's not your fault, I was just careless "
Lim Yueling laid on the bed yet she could not sleep no matter how many times she closed her eyes.
She had known Cha Min for nine years now and they had started dating four years ago when she was in high school. She had to admit that Cha Min was truly a rare treasure, someone who was rare to come across.
Sometimes she could not help but wonder if he loved her for her beauty or for who she was.
The next day, Cha Min dropped Lim Yueling down in front of her college and kissed her goodbye before leaving.
Lim Yueling was making her way towards her department when something hit her hard on the head.
She then realised it was fresh egg and it spilled all over her face.
Before she could even react, more eggs started falling on her. Lim Yueling calmly searched her pocket and found her handkerchief. She wiped her face and turned around to see a crowd of students staring straight at her and still throwing the eggs at her.
"What are you glaring at? You deserve this!", a student shouted.
"Yeah! That's what you get for trying to steal your sister's husband!"
"I knew you were shameless but not to this extent! You're more than a prostitute!"
"How dare you try to seduce professor Xu? Take this!"
Lim Yueling scrutinised the face of each and every student gathered there before leaving covered in egg shells, yolks and egg white.
She looked really dishevelled and attracted some houseflies.
"That wad so embarrassing for her. Maybe we might never see her in the school!"
"I hope the school expels her immediately!"
"I was almost fooled by that seductive angelic face of hers the first time I laid my eyes on her"
Lim Yueling could not go to the department looking so wretched so she made her way to the hostel rather.
"Why the f*ck are you looking like that?", Kang Su, Lim Yueling's roommate's soul almost left her body the moment she laid eyes upon her.
Lim Yueling ignored her and silently made her way towards the bathroom. She threw her clothes into the trash bin and washed up for more than an hour before walking out.
"I almost thought you were dead when you took so long there", said Kang Su jokingly.
"Cleanliness they say is next to perfection ", said Lim Yueling as she rolled her eyes.
"Lim Yueling...", Kang Su was looking very serious when she mentioned the name.
Lim Yueling did not respond but turned to look at her.
"Cleanliness is next to Godliness not perfection, you...you made a mistake ", Kang Su burst out laughing.
Lim Yueling's face turned red out of embarrassment and she ignored Kang Su.
Meanwhile news of Lim Yueling returning to the school had spread throughout the entire school and everyone was gossiping.
"I still cannot believe she dared to come back after such an explosive scandal"
"I heard she has been eyeing professor Xu even before he married her adoptive sister"
"What? Lim Yueling is an adopted daughter of the Lim family?"
"The f*ck? You did not know? She is an adopted daughter!"
"No wonder she behaves like that, I bet on my head that her mother was a big time prostitute "
"I wonder why the Lim family has not kicked such a b*tch out of their family yet!"
"That's because she's dating young master Cha. I bet they are scared of him"
"No, I bet they want to benefit from the cha family "
"No I bet they want to take advantage of the Cha family "
"Has anyone wondered why Young Master Cha is still with her? Does not make sense to me "
"I'm sure she has used black magic on him"
"No, I'm sure he's gay and he's just using her to hide his real sexual orientation!"
Lim Yueling decided to take a short nap when she received a phone call.
"Yueling...", a woman's soft voice was heard from the other end of the phone call.
"Mother...", Yueling responded calmly. There was nothing to be afraid of.
"Come home tonight ", said the woman before ending the call. She was not giving Lim Yueling the chance to decline.
"Was that your mother? Did she call to ask about the scandal, it's the topic of the day. I heard everyone in the city has heard about it", asked Kang Su.
Lim Yueling squinted her eyes and ignored Kang Su's words.
Talk of the city? Sure!
