"Chang trust and believe me that it will not happen . I ensured a long time ago that we would have peace . I invested the time and effort into this last year and then missed you, missed our chance until now . You could say now thougj that it was in preparation for today . It will not be as it was before believe me . " Smiling Jian shook his head at her brus.h.i.+ng a finger under her chin .

"No, believe me Jian, your father is worse than you can imagine . I can't go with you there . " Pus.h.i.+ng his hand away Chang pushed away at his hand . Staring up at him, she wished her words would get through to him so that he would understand .

Making a displeased grunt in the back of his throat, Jian pressed his lips tight while pinching the bridge of his nose . Closing his eyes for a moment, the man took a deep calming breath before running a hand back through his hair agitatedly .

"Fine then I will just continue to visit you here . " Snorting in displeasure Jian held out a hand in emphasis as he spoke .

"Jian, we both know that it wouldn't work that easily . " Shaking her head Chang spoke softly hating the words coming from her mouth .

"You do not know of what you are speaking, it is a modern world now . "

"It still would take a half a day to fly, even at the fastest, a whole day for a round trip . And then what, are you planning to always be running yourself ragged trying to allocate the time to try to squeeze in a few days to come see me?

"You have goals that you wanted to meet . You told me that you wanted to truly make the company you inherited touch every corner in the world, and have a purpose behind it . If you are always chasing after me, tearing yourself in half to reach two corners of the world, you will never achieve that . "

Hating her words Liang JianAmal was unable to say anything for a moment, unable to believe what he was hearing . As if she took it for his consent Chang continued speaking, making small hammer falls on his insides .

"You have to let me go and walk away . Plus I'm sure you would find a more beautiful woman, with even better curves that you like . Someone smarter, who's braver and better than me . Plus she would probably be someone your father would approve of, as long as she is not me at this point .

"Jian-"

"Chang stop talking . " Cutting her off before she could continue, Liang JianAmal tried to sort out his thoughts and words, sifting through to find the right thing to say .

Chang immediately silenced, her lips pressing tight as she looked at him dead on . She thought sharing her thoughts would make her feel better, but if anything the weight only burrowed deeper inside her guts .

'Let her go? Find another woman? She is talking nonsense from her fear, I should have not been so easy on my father . ' Snorting Liang JianAmal shook his head .

"You do not know what you are saying Chang . "

"No I do-"

"Stop . Just come with me now . Truly think about what you are saying and what I have said . Your fears are not as relevant as they once were . Chang I do not care to find another woman, even less so one that my father would approve of . I am here for you .

"So for now just come with me . Let us take you somewhere you can clean up your face or just go back to your home . You can sleep on this further . You will see that I am right, if nothing else you just need to trust in me . I promise it will be fine . "

Grabbing her wrist Liang JianAmal opened one of her fists and interlaced it with one of his hands . Squeezing it tight he brought it up to his lips

"Where do you want to go for now?"

" . . Let's just go back to my house . " Sniffling a little Chang wiped her tears away briskly with her fingertips . Crying would not help her, right now she had to be stronger .

'I'm so weak though . I don't know if I can do this, but I don't know else to do . Why can't he hear me?' Even though she continued to wipe them away, they continued to roll down unabated .
