At the private airport..
Fang Jie had seeked help from Wang Yan, for his private plane. Of course, Wang Yan agreed to help Fang Jie and chartered his plane to fly him and Wang Ling to Japan.
Wang Ling was still stunned from the sudden japan trip.
A Lineage E100 private plane, extends a full comfort experience with 8 private suites, fully furnished with premium leather club seats and equipped with an iPad.
It is indeed Wang Yan's luxury plane.
"Why are we going back to Japan suddenly?"
Wang Ling asked after boarding the plane.
"Wang Ling.."
Fang Jie clears his throat, anxious and nervous to spill his confession.
Holding both her hands.
"I know this is a little sudden, but.."
"I'm pretty sure i'm head over heels for you. The first time meeting you at the lobby, your confident self, mistaking me as the hotel staff..i guess we're meant to meet each other like this.."
Fang Jie smiled, containing his laughter.
Wang Ling let out a giggle, recalling how she first met Fang Jie at Royal W.
"And i just want to express how i feel towards you. Your every laughter, always never fail to amaze me, you've brought a lot of joy to my life ever since we've met. Although I may not be the ideal guy you want, but i want to be the guy that you could lean on, that could be there to share your joy, happiness and your pain if you give me the chance. "
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
Fang Jie's little puppy eyes completely nailed it.
He've said it!
Wang Ling's heart, melted in an instant.
She knew deep down her heart, she've been secretly waiting for Fang Jie to express himself.
Wang Ling was smiling from ear to ear.
"My father is going to kill me..."
That was her answer to Fang Jie.
Wang Ling leaned forward to him, putting her arms around Fang Jie's neck.
She.
Kissed.
Him!
"yes..i will!"
Wang Ling whispered in respond, with her lips brushing against Fang Jie's.
They were less than 1cm apart.
"I'm going have to seek for forgiveness from Father Wang"
Fang Jie smiled widely, his heart was full, and responded to Wang Ling's playful kiss.
Across the sunset, the plane took off for Japan as they shared their first kiss.

8pm, The Aescott
Wang Yan was still attending to meetings at Royal W, while Ruo Qin was still busy painting her final piece for her launch exhibition. She was painting a night landscape.
It was the view of Shanghai city lights when Wang Yan first took her on a helicopter ride, was one of the most spectacular and memorable night with Wang Yan.
While painting, a short blindness took over again.
Ruo Qin screamed her lungs out and smashed her colour palette over her half-painted canvas!
Scared, and frustrated.
She broke down, wailing helplessly on the ground.
Her cries echoed in the large living hall..
Each day living at Aescott with Wang Yan, was another day of torture. She couldnt bear to leave him, but she have to.
Ruo Qin regained her sight shortly after..
Just then her cellphone rings.
It was Yun'er, her best friend.
--
Yun'er: Qin! I am back in Shanghai! Where are you?
Ruo Qin: I..i am at Aescott..
Yun'er: Can i come over then? i missed you so much!
Ruo Qin: Okay...i'll send you the address..
--
Ruo Qin knew she could seek for Yun'er's help to leave Aescott.
2 Hours later..
Yun'er arrived at Aescott, she lunged into Ruo Qin's arms as they both hugged tightly just like every sisters would.
"Qin! i miss you!! how have you been? living the good life huh? i mean look at this place!"
Yun'er couldnt stop her excitement seeing Ruo Qin living in such a lavish place.
"Yun'er...i need your help.."
Ruo Qin's voice start cracking up as she tried to hold back her tears.
"...Qin..?! why?! whats wrong?! why are you crying?! tell me!"
Yun'er demanded the truth, she knew Ruo Qin was hiding something.
And finally...
Ruo Qin spilled the truth to her best friend, the only one she could confide in.
"Nno..no...you won't die Qin..it's not going to happen!"
Yun'er pulled her closed, trying to give her strength that she needs.
"Yun'er....i need your help...to get me out of here...." she pleaded.
Ruo Qin made up her mind that night, she is going to leave Aescott.
She gave Wang Yan a call...
--
Ruo Qin: Yan..Yun'er is back, i'm going to stay over at her place tonight alright?
Wang Yan: Qin..i'm sorry, i am still in a meeting, maybe Yun'er can keep you accompanied tonight.
Ruo Qin: I got it, but...can you tell Zoey and James not to follow us?
Wang Yan: Qin...it's for your safety..
Ruo Qin: I know, but it's really uncomfortable for us, besides Yun'ers place is really small, it will be weird for Zoey and James to be there..
Wang Yan: ...alright then..but please stay safe. I will get Renxi to pick you up tomorrow.
--
The call ended, Ruo Qin packed some of her stuffs into a duffel bag, including her passport.
Taking one last glance at Aescott, Ruo Qin takes the elevator down, leaving Aescott.
--
That night at Yun'er's apartment..
"Are you really sure to leave here? Qin..don't give up like this..there will be a donor for you soon.."
Yun'er tried to comfort Ruo Qin.

She knew staying in Shanghai, there is no way she could escape from Wang Yan.
"I'm sure of this Yun'er...can you pass this letter to Wang Yan tomorrow?"
Ruo Qin hands over a handwritten letter, she knew she would not be able to break these words in front of him..
"Promise me, once there is a donor, you will come back for your transplant."
Ruo Qin nodded and promised her.
Before departing to the airport, Ruo Qin wanted to see her mother once more.
She arrived at The Regen Hospital at midnight.
"Mother...."
Ruo Qin gently touches her mother's face..
Madam Qian was awaken by her touch.
"Q..Qin'er..? why are you here so late..?"
Madam Qian squint her eyes open..
"Mother..i'm here to tell you i'll be leaving Shanghai for some time.."
Ruo Qin braced herself to tell her mother.
"Leaving Shanghai? Where are you going?"
Madam Qian asked, sensing something was wrong.
"Mother...trust me, i will come back to pick you up ok?"
Ruo Qin reassured her mother.
"Had a tiff with Wang Yan? Please be safe..Qin'er..i understand.."
Madam Qian could tell her daughter wanted to take a break..she nodded.
Her mother thought Ruo Qin wanted to leave Wang Yan, but she never knew her daughter was suffering from illness..
Nonetheless, her mother watched her leave.

*DING*
An incoming text from Wang Yan
--
To Ruo Qin: I'm back home..going to sleep now, see you tomorrow Qin. Goodnight my love -Yan
--
A message that broke her heart.
Tears rolled down her face, looking at the message from Wang Yan..
She switches off her phone, knowing that Wang Yan would be able to track her location if her phone is turned on.
Ruo Qin held her phone close to her heart..controlling her tears.
She is leaving him, for real.
"I love you...Yan.."
Ruo Qin muttered to herself..
At 4.30am, her flight departed to Kyoto, Japan.
