Ling fei have always wondered if his master had a secret life or was he head of some secret society.He have observed that he had secret conversations over phone that was with people unknown to him. He knew it was really childish of him to think in such a way. It was as if he was a 12 year old kid imagining himself to be some sort of mafia. Maybe young master was only keeping secret contacts to find a way for young miss Liu. But he couldn't help it. His young master was capable of anything if he wanted hence he couldnt rule that possibility out.

"Mum, it seems that Liu mei's health isnt so good. Doctors won't be able to do much after a while. It seems it's hopeless. " Gu Yijin said to his mother. Liu mei had been a talk among them since she had entered coma.
"I have heard about it too son. Let things be alright that's all I wish for. All the other things are irrelevant. " his mother replied. She was not happy with how things turned out in her dear child's life, but she hoped it would be better.Gu Yijin knew how his mother was feeling about all this.
"I hope that too mother. " Gu Yijin said and let out a sigh.
From what he knew his stoic brother have tried to give the best treatment in the world for this girl. She was his friend when he was in the school. That's all they knew about her, until it changed.
His brother had always carried a cold demure. He was strong, intelligent and extremely handsome. No one would expect any less from the Gu family's genes. But he was exceptional in his own way, but he never showed much emotions. No one could understand his emotions except him and their mother. But even they weren't able to make him feel things. Only once in his life had he seen his brother so distraught. As if he had lost his entire world.
It was a rainy night, a stormy one to be said precisely.Afterall the destruction the day seems stop have brought in his brother's life as he assumed wasn't small. The day he saw his brother in utter defeat. He came to hospital when Yang jun called him and told him to go to the D hospital. It was a top notch hospital of the country. Yang Jun told him that his brother's assistant had asked him to be there but he couldn't be there for another hour, so he had asked him to be there. But his voice was frantic, panicking. He couldn't still forget the terror he was in. He was extremely shaking himself after the call. He was afraid that something had happened to his brother. He rushed to the hospital as fast as he could.
Ling fei was there waiting for him right at the entrance, he walked him to unit where his brother was and waited outside. When he entered, he saw his brother a bit far from him, holding the hand of a beautiful young lady whom he recognized as his brother's school friend, Liu Mei. She was telling his something, even if she was struggling to utter those words. He couldn't make out what it was as he was a bit away from them and her words were feeble to hear. Just as her conscious slipped and nurses took her away for further treatment. His brother went silent. Tears were streaming down his eyes.
His brother walked away not even noticing him, into the rain. He followed him. Once they were out of the hospital his brother fell on his knees, as if his legs have collapsed, gave up on him. And he let out a scream of agony. He could still remember that. He could still remember it ringing in his voice.
His brother returned to his old way, showing little emotions as always. He never gave explanation to what had happened. He had been tring ever since to make her return to life. Hiring the best doctors, providing her the best treatment and medical support. Even though Liu family could afford most of it themselves. He never let them. He didn't give them any explanation, but no one dared question him. And the Liu family was in peace knowing their daughter was in the best hands.
He haven' been able to bear to see his master whom he had loved so much, whom he looked up to so greatly crumple. Sure he never showed his misery later on. But he knew that he felt it always. He had once imagined his brother experiencing love , he knew when that happened he would even turn the world upside down for his love. But never had he imagined finding his brother's love in such miserable position. Beyond help. He sincerely wished for things to take a turn in his brother's favour.
The second young master of the Gu family was just exceptional as everyone else in the family. Since his brother was the one taking care of business, he wanted to pursue his interest. He was extremely interested in quantum physics and was pursing it as his major. He was soon to graduate. He was pretty popular, if his brother carried the cold forbidden aura he carried a loving, warm aura. Everyone was attracted to him deeply. He was pretty popular in his university too.
He could understand clearly that the loss his brother faced that day wasn't small. He had told his mother about that day. She was in deep misery since then. Sadness had enveloped her when she realized that the girl her dear son loved was beyond help. She would have been more than happy to accept her as her daughter in law. She had succeded in making her son feel love. She was also the daughter of Liu family,she knew she couldn't be that bad after all. She also knew about her since her childhood. She wanted him to move on for sure, but she knew that Gu family men can't get over their love so easily. She would be happy just as much as he would when she would finally wake up.
Gu jiang wasn aware of all these assumptions that his brother and mother had, maybe it didn't stop with them either . He knew that his brother had seen him on that day,the day he was the most vulnerable in his entire life. But he was stubborn that he wouldn't let anything out. But he never knew of the things they thought about all of that afterall he avoided that one topic, he could only assume of their thoughts . He tried to make that day a closed chapter in his life. But he failed miserably. He somehow couldn't just give up. As if something was telling him to not loose faith yet.
