How much more time did he need? When will he be ready to move on and find a rebound? Or perhaps he had but...that wasn't her. Every thought drowned her heart an inch deeper in an abyss.

Why couldn't he see, when the only man she had ever had eyes for was him. He was the subject of her dreams, he was the one who was on her speed dial, he was her 11/11 wish. She even wished him on the cras.h.i.+ng stars!

There wasn't a religion or temple she hadn't made him her prayer but why couldn't he see that?!

Su Qianwei drowned another gla.s.s of wine thickening her despair by the misty fog in her eyes. Here she was draining her confessions in her heart in an illegal bar for him when he was somewhere reciting 'HER' like she was some hymn[1].

She wasn't dressed in a flowing dress with ribbon to placate her bleeding heart, she was dressed in the cryptic dark dress with thorn-like rubble attached to it. She was wearing her mask, the mask that changed her life forever or... in the right words the mask she first wore when her life changed forever.

She was nineteen when the Lei's Head knocked on their door and since then those doors closed on her forever.

Her nightmarish life was a beautiful slumber of a wistful dream then. she was the prodigy child of their family, the next heir to their family and then she was no more a family.

Su Zhinan, the son of her first uncle or supposed to be uncle, who is now the apple of everyone's eye, wasn't even seen in her shadow then!

Now the lines of her fate were as blurred as her sight. 

She was sitting in a private room, alone wis.h.i.+ng that life could be rewind or forwarded.

Every other heir fought for either survival or the Lei's fortune but she fought for him, the man of her dreams, the man who owned her heart. Li Yuan.

She smiled in melancholy and took a sip of the red wine in her bottle. Sitting lonely on a sofa in the dim light where her pale skin illuminated and her red lips drew in the wildest of spirits, she looked like a living sculpture of virtue and divineness.

She poured herself another gla.s.s and perceived as the gla.s.s poured and her heart sunk in the red swirling liquid. She had never drunk without thinking of him but all he was thinking about was that Lei Xinyi!

A woman who wouldn't even mourn him for two complete days before she will find another big thigh to climb on. Her heart churns in whirls in envy.

Why her? Any other woman and she would have ripped her from his heart but why Lei Xinyi?! Why did it have to be her?! Why it has to be always Lei Xinyi who ruin her life?!

Wasn't she better than her in every aspect?! She knew him best! She was more beautiful than her! She could be anything he wanted her to be, she could even be like Lei Xinyi for him!

But... the minute she would confess, he would throw her out of his life! She knew him that much.

Su Qianwei brought the wine gla.s.s to her blood-red lips but paused when she heard the bullets firing through the door.

'SHOOT! SHOOT! SHOOT!'

Great! That's what she needed for a healthy lifestyle, another h.e.l.lhound on her tail! Su Qianwei rolled her eyes, it had been like this for a month now. The b.a.s.t.a.r.d wouldn't leave her alone!

Su Qianwei gulped down the whole wine gla.s.s in one shot and the door opened with a 'THUD' and there stood the majestic Yu w.a.n.g in all his glory armed in his pride alone.

He was wearing a custom-made Charcoal Black Italian three-piece, his hairs were styled into rugged-perfection of a fringe haircut of sandy brown hairs. His diamond ear-piercing glinted in the dim lights in the room, he was standing there with his hands in his pocket like he was here to attend an award show as a guest of honour.

Su Qianwei ran her eyes through this muscled figure draped in the sarcophagus of his dark suit and then his strong, sharp jaw made to cut through the hearts of the female population. 

She snorted in loath and pulled her eyes away from him in disinterest then picked her bottle of red wine and took a big gulp from the wine bottle holding the bottle from the neck then took it away from her mouth.

She looked in Yu w.a.n.g's direction who was still eyeing her with interest and smirked. She threw the bottle in the air and it twirled vertically not spilling a drop of wine. She held it mid-air by its neck and crushed it on the table.

She held it in her hand and stood up with a ballerina posture and craned her neck to a.s.sess the men behind him.

She nodded then smirked in mock, and mused, "Will the princess come to greet the lady or again send her little ponies?"

Yu w.a.n.g smug smirk was stripped at once and his face darkened at the insult that she had thrown on his face. He stepped forward in the room and locked the door.

He snorted and a.s.sessed her from head to toe in disgust, "Lady? I don't see a lady parts here."

Su Qianwei lost her temper at once and lunged at him but he stood still waiting for her to reach him and when she did, he held her by her arm and flipped her on the front door. She was thrown on the door.

Yu w.a.n.g stood still effortlessly bored waiting for her to retaliate. Su Qianwei glared at him and stood up to lunge at him and when she was close to him, she threw the broken gla.s.s on him and he easily ducked.

Yu w.a.n.g extended his hand to throw her on her back once more but at the last minute, she changed her path and instead jumped in the gla.s.s window instead.

It took him 60th part of a second to realize what she did and he at once started firing orders.

Su Qing landed on her back from the second storey building and cursed, her body suffered from the brutality of gravity but she didn't sit there to lick her wounds instead she stood up and ran.

Minutes later she was in a stolen car, rus.h.i.+ng out of the crime scene with her mask off. She gritted her teeth and threw her hands on the steering wheel in utter frustration and infuriation.

Yu w.a.n.g was like a chipped tooth, not leaving her anywhere. It was the third close call. He was f*cking waging storms and flooding the winds to catch her.

Somehow he got to know she had a hand in Viper's a.s.sa.s.sination and was running for her head. But it was beyond her how would he even suspect her unless...Lei Xinyi had a hand in this. 

Su Qianwei eyes narrowed and a growl left her, That's it! It was the b*tch! She had her one mask missing...The b*tch stole it to frame her!

She took a deep breath to calm her breaths. She will deal with Lei Xinyi in h.e.l.l but right now she had to send Yu w.a.n.g back to the pit he crawled from.

She gave him chances to leave her alone but now...he would have to die!
