2 months later,it has been five months since Li Xie and Zhang Linfen has been married, Li Xie who was tired of staying indoors decided to get back to her old occupation which was being a actress.

For one month, Li Xie hasn't seen or heard from Zhang Linfen,her heart yearn for him. He may have been rude to her but he still love her.

Today, she was getting ready for work, she wanted to start a job as a actress. She would work under a level C company,JK.

She got ready for the day, going downstairs she was stopped by the butler,she furrowed her brows in confusion to why the butler is in her way.

"Young madam, young master said that you must have your breakfast before leaving"she breath in heavily,this always happen every day in which she angrily leaves the table and go upstairs but today she needs this job, she went down in defeat and sat on the chair, sitting alone in this big large mansion reminded her of her days in the Wen's home but the only difference was that her room wasn't as nice as this place.

The maids served a lot of delicacies on the table and that's when her stomach rumbled which made her realize that she's really hungry. She ate her full and hurriedly left for the job.

Zhang Linfen looked at his assistant.

"Have you made all the necessary arrangements for her?"he asked as the assistant shook his head.

"Yes boss,I have talked with the owner of the JK corporation and they've agreed to give her to us"Zhang Linfen eyes lit up.

"Make sure that nobody finds out not even my brother,if he does consider your self dead and increase the number of security around her, nothing must happen to her"he ordered with a chilling aura when he said his brother.

"Pay the JK whatever amount they require and sign any necessary documents that needs signature. You can leave."he dismissed the assistant, the man nodded and walked away.

Zhang Linfen sigh in helplessness,he had never been this vulnerable before but he couldn't just stay and watch how they'll kill his wife just like Su Mami.

He would never repeat the same mistake ever again, what happened to her has really left a scar in his heart,a scar that hasn't heal since a decade ago.

The memories still play itself afresh in his head, she had given up so many things for him but he only repayed her with untimely death.

Unknowingly a tear slipped out of his eyes thinking about her, he thought he had gotten over it but the scar and guilt is still fresh in his mind and heart.

He took a cigarette and lit it, his mind drifted off to his best friend.

He inhaled the cigarette smoke and puff it out forgetting everything.

He has a new wife and hope to have a family with her and starts his new life afresh with her.

JK corporation.

Li Xie was standing in the front of a huge building fiddling with the hem of her cloth while biting her lips, she didn't know what to say when she gets in and doesn't have much confidence as she used to before.

She breath in and walked in, people kept staring at her but she held her face high and walked with style to where other people were waiting.

A lady came before her"are you miss Li Xie?"the lady said in a arrogant tone as she examined Li Xie from top to bottom.

Li Xie didn't bother with her look and nodded.

"Follow me"she started walking away, Li Xie followed under the peering eyes of the people.

The lady stopped at a door and left the way signalling Li Xie to get inside.

Li Xie walked in and the door was closed, she looked at the man sitting on the chair, she suddenly became scared because of the look the man was giving her.
