Chapter 1: Dont you recognise me? (2/2)

”I wonder if she was flirting with you,” Wang Mei speaks with a curious tone. ”She has never been out of this country. You have never been to this country before. Then, when will she get to meet you?”

I want to choke this girl. Why can't she think of me before speaking something like that?

”My brother practices pick up lines like that,” She adds.

”Is that so, Miss Wang?” Sung Jun chuckles with low voice. ”Miss Fang looks too innocent.”

I know what he is trying to imply. I look too innocent to flirt with him openly. Did I not know that he is secretly proud of his looks? Narcissist brat! If I have not known him from my past life, I would have fallen for his disguise like Wang Mei.

”It must be your face,” Wang Mei blurts out. ”It's too pretty.”

Wang Mei, my sweet Wang Mei! What did I ever do to you? Why are you saying this to the devil? Don't believe his charade. He is the devil who can sell you without batting his eyes.

I want to wake up and scream at them, but I am too embarrassed to do that. I don't want to see their faces.

In my past life, I was hurt and abandoned by both of them. Wang Mei decided to cut off the friendship without any explanation. Sung Jun went back to K country after our graduation without a single word.

”Miss Fang.” Jun pinches my cheek. ”Open your eyes. I saw your lips twitch a while ago.”

I look at him when I feel his hot breath on my face. My eyes wander to his pink lips. I can't help but remember our first kiss on the rooftop.

That day, I heard that the president of my class wanted to ask him out on a date. She was pretty and charming. I decided that I had no chance of winning against that girl who was perfect in studies and looks. I dragged him to the roof. I gathered my courage and kissed him. I told him arrogantly that I would take responsibility for him after eating his tofu.

I would later learn that it was his plan all along. He was not a pure white flower, but a devil incarnate.

”Are you insane?” I push him away. I can't stop myself from yelling at him.

I always felt like I forced myself on him in my past life. Ever since I saw him, I chased him shamelessly while he treated me with kindness. Everyone hated my behavior. They thought that I forced him to be with me. But, Wang Mei stood by my side. She even threatened the people who spoke badly behind my back.

I thought that I could move his heart if I forced him to be with me. We were in a relationship for three years. When told me that he also loved me that night, I foolishly believed those words and surrendered to his embrace. Next morning, he was gone. He went back to K country. I called him so many times, but he never answered. I chased him to K country, but he never met me. Later, I learned that he was marrying his childhood sweetheart.

That was when I gave up on him and returned to China. I was too tired. This guy never showed his face till the end. He must have hated every second that he spent with me.

I have hated myself more than I hated him.

He played me to the end when we were together. Still, I wanted to see him once more at my last moment.

I am reborn in the past because of that stupid wish.

”Miss Fang?” Sung Jun touches my wet cheeks. ”Why are you crying?”

”Aisa,” Wang Mei freaks out. ”I am sorry. Are you in pain?”

”Yes.” I am in pain. It hurts to see both of them again. I don't want to relive my life.

”I am sorry, Aisa.”

Wang Mei stands to my right and blows on my nose. Her grey eyes are clear and honest. There is no fake emotion in her voice. She is genuinely worried about me. I don't understand why she will later break all relations with me.

”Miss Fang, I am sorry. I am partially responsible for this situation.” Jun smiles at me politely.

I grit my teeth. I have known him enough to know when he is genuinely sorry. At this moment, this guy is not sorry at all.

”My name is Sung Jun. I moved here from K country last week.” He lowers his head to look into my eyes. ”I don't remember ever meeting you. Can you tell me where we have met before?”

___

She has long wavy hair and dark eyes. The girl has tanned skin and naturally red lips. Her gaze is steady and quiet. Sung Jun waits for her to answer. He is sure that he would remember if he has seen her somewhere before. There is a dark aura around her.

She smiles at him mockingly, ”I was mistaken. You looked like someone I knew. We don't know each other”

If that's the case, then why does she still have that undisguised hate for him in her eyes?

He notices the shadows around her. That's the aura of death. People who are closer to death have that kind of aura around them. She doesn't look sick. Is she going to have a close encounter with death soon?

Fang Aisa gets down the bed, ignoring Wang Mei's protests.

Wang Mei frets around her. ”Aisa, you should rest.”

Fang Aisa packs up her stuff. ”I am going home.”

”But…”

Her cold eyes freeze Wang Mei on her spot. She warns her with a tone that sends a shiver down Wang Mei's back. ”Don't bother me.”

She glances at him once. They hold each other gaze for less than a second. Then, she marches away without a word.

Miss Fang is interesting.
