With a clank, the part of the gla.s.s railing, which had loose nuts, broke from the rest and fell flat on the edge of the roof. As soon as it hit the edge, it cracked off from the middle and slanted towards the ground. Feng Xinying slid onto it and started falling down. Somehow, she managed to hold the railing's frame as she slipped over the gla.s.s and hung in the air. 

Everyone out there was in jitters. Seeing Feng Xinying falling off the roof was the most dreadful sight for Lu Dao and Wu Bosun. Everyone ran there to save her but it was impossible to reach her because of the gla.s.s and the damaged podium. 

Her grip on the railing was slipping away. The media people took the opportunity and started clicking pictures. The entire scenario was on the tip of becoming a scandal, which Lu Dao dreaded. 

Feng Xinying felt the need to stay still over there. If she would move even an inch anywhere, her grip on the railing would loosen. She was dangling in the air. Her mind became numb. She looked down and saw that there was darkness all around. There were hedges in the bottom of where she was hanging. If she left the railing, she would fall on the hedges and perhaps their cus.h.i.+on would save her. 

She was unable to understand the sudden accident that occurred and she was frightened as h.e.l.l. Was this her end? Where was Xie Yuansheng? Why was he acting so strange when they came to the party? Why was he maintaining his distance? Did he craft this accident? Did he want all the wealth for himself? He said he loved her. It can't be… 

Somehow Wu Bosun managed to come as near as possible to Feng Xinying. He took out his coat and threw it at Feng Xinying. "Feng Xinying, hold it," he shouted as he held one end and threw the other end towards her. 

She stared blankly with wide, horrific eyes at Wu Bosun. Her frightened expression matched those on the face of Wu Bosun and he took a sudden intake of breath. His knees felt wobbly. His shoulders shook in fear and he closed his eyes to pray to the G.o.d. A second later, when he opened his eyes, he noticed that she wasn't there anymore. He could hear a loud, frightening shriek that came from Feng Xinying and then everything became quiet. 

Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was watching all this from behind very coolly, as she sipped her wine gla.s.s. That shriek was like music to her ears. She looked around at people. No one moved and the best part was that Xie Yuansheng wasn't there. She smiled as her plan became successful. 

Everyone out there watched the entire occurrence with horror as though they were hypnotized. A dreadful silence fell upon the atmosphere as they watched her fall in front of them. Lu Dao sat right there on the ground, his eyes wide with bewilderment. Wu Bosun forgot how to breathe. 

In order to break the reverie Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ kept the wine gla.s.s on the table and shouted, "Oh my G.o.d! Feng Xinying has fallen over. Someone please go down and find her. She must have fallen badly! I hope she isn't dead!" 

Upon hearing her, people came to senses and panic struck. Several people ran down the stairs while some took the elevator to find Feng Xinying. 

Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ took the chance, went to Wu Bosun and circled her arms around him. "Brother Bosun, I am so sorry. This was just the worst that could happen to you. I hope Feng Xinying is fine." She kissed his arm.
