Xiao Juhan did nothing but stand there still which scared Song Mimi a lot because she had seen his opposite side before and it really scared her.
"Xiao Juhan I..."
The rest of the nurses came out as the door opened wide and the corpse of his father was lying there lifeless left for the nurses to carry it away to the morgue.
"Xiao Juhan..."
"He wanted to reconcile you know. And that's why he chose that local restaurant where we all went to once when I was about seven or eight. I can't even remember after all these years of fighting with him, why did it have to be the day I was finally willing..."
He run his fingers through his hair frustrated turning almost every ten seconds.
"Juhan... listen to..."
"WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE THIS WAY?!"
He yelled as he punched the wall angry at himself soo much it cracked the wall making the light flicker. Song Mimi watched with much pain as he slowly knelt down with tears pouring down from his eyes. She hurriedly went over hugging him tightly as he hugged her back.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Please... Come with me and don't ever be like this again. Get up."
She helped him up as they left the hospital back to her villa. Zhong Hu and Zhou Sheng were already back waiting for her.
"Juhan is gonna be staying with us for a while. You guys go back for now. Zhou Sheng, take care of things on your own now and do everything Zhong Hu tells you."
She takes him to her room as he stands still lost in thoughts saying nothing. Song Mimi takes a towel out for him as he finally looks at her.
"You still have blood stains on you. Please, get changed first. I'll wait for you outside."
She leaves after that as Xiao Juhan still stands there lifeless for a while before entering the shower. He came out later to find cloths brought for him with a note.
~Change first. I'll be right back.~
He checks the cloths before changing as Song Mimi comes in right away also changed out of her cloths.
"Why did you come? You don't seem to take me seriously."
He said coldly and distant which sounded soo weird for Song Mimi it forced her to laugh a bit.
"I'm sorry but, you just don't usually sound this way. It's mostly how I sound so I was a bit surprised."
Xiao Juhan stood there very distant and emotionless. It seemed as though he had shut off his humanity.
"What's wrong Juhan? I've never seen you like this?"
He turns away taking his stuff to leave.
"You can't go..."
Juhan turns to her confused by her actions. She was acting the same confusing way she did with him always.
"I called your mom and she said you could stay with me for a while. She can't take care of you right now cause she's in devastating pain."
"Well I can take care of my mother. And if you don't mind I want to start preparing for my father's funeral if that's not in your way of tormenting me."
"Tormenting you...? What are you talking about? I don't torment you."
She said hurriedly waiting for his answer.
"Oh so you don't torment me..."
"I don't!"
"Oh really? But you come to me when you feel lonely. Remember back in high school, you'd be soo distant sometimes then sometimes come to me when you only needed comfort. You kidnapped me for no reason when I said I was leaving and took my first kiss which apparently meant nothing to you after all you've been married once and been with another man..."
A slap shut him up right then as Song Mimi looked at him. Tears whelming up in her eyes by his words. Xiao Juhan smiled as he looked at her more disdainful making her heart shatter. He had never looked at her that way.
"You can't believe it can you? That's not all by the way. Now my father is dead and now you're here. To what? Comfort me? Song Mimi everything you do always torments me cause you just don't realise how much you mean to me but you just do it over and over and over and for some stupid reason I can't get over you and keep coming back."
"Why do you do it then? Why do you come back?"
She asks cleaning the tears from her eyes.
"Because that's how much control you have over me! You have every right and control over me. But you don't realise that do you. Look at us, we're not a match. This relationship is toxic. I'm leaving Song Mimi."
He takes his stuff to leave but she stops him making him more frustrated.
"Where are you going? Where will you go?"
"I have no idea. I want to be alone. Maybe for a month or a year."
Song Mimi looks at him shocked by his words.
"You want a distance between us... and about a year?"
"There was never anything between us for me to distance. We are just meant to go our separate ways. Maybe we'll see each other during the funeral or somewhere else again."
He leaves right after that as Song Mimi stands rooted to her spot before breaking down.
She actually didn't do anything to stop and there was nothing she could do to stop him otherwise her revenge might never be carried out. The unbearable pain in her chest made her collapse right then not knowing anything else.

The next morning came by fast as she opened her eyes to the bright sun assaulting her eyelids. Zhou Sheng was sitting beside her waiting for her to awaken.
"You're up. I didn't think it was gonna be that fast. Xiao Juhan finalized the date for his father's funeral and it's in three days. You and Song Luo are invited as well if you wish to go."
She looked out the window remembering all that had happened last night with him and sighed. From here on after, our mission comes first before anything. Nothing else."
She took her phone and sent a stress signal to two coordinates right then.
"What about Xiao..."
"Xiao Juhan means nothing to me. My main focus is only my revenge now."
