Chapter 27 - loser is a monkey... (2/2)
”Not relatively”
She didn't know why she just asked that.
”So what happened?”
”I traveled and things started to fall apart, at first we still got through any challenge. Distance was nothing to us but I guess time apart changed her or maybe she had always been that girl and I just never noticed.”
”You can't take the blame for that, things happen sometimes that we can't control.”
His hands went to his scar naturally as he remembered the night of the incident.
He thought he knew the woman he fell in love with, apparently not.
Yang Mi heard through the vineyard Su Yan was trying to move on from her and he was. Her wild ways wasn't for him. She bullied anyone that crossed her part, using the Zhang family name to hurt people. Power and money at her disposal made her feel truly like a god. She had hurt him without holding back, an incident she had later claimed to be accident.
His family had feared he was going to be brain damaged. He spent a long time in the hospital and had been transferred to the states for surgery.
His mom had opted for a plastic surgery to cover the scar. He refused it.
Yang Mi still found a way to blame him for it. She accused him of leaving his scar to mock her. To always remind her of what she did to him.
His face turned cold as he remembered all that had happened. His thoughts clouded with the night of the incident seeing his blood painting the floor, he had blacked out before the ambulance came for him.
Warm hands touched his and he was brought back to the presence of the woman sitting by his side.
”Come on, I think it's time to show you the best part of Rainbow.”
”Rainbow?”
”I named it, not official though. Get up”
He guessed what it was.
She handed him a bottle of water as she turned on her torch again.
”We'd go from here; she pointed to a small path that was disappearing under overgrown bushes and weed.
”Why not below?”
”Well, because something's look much more beautiful when you see them from a distance”
She packed up her blanket and hid her bag under a few sticks before moving.
The sound of the waterfall became louder as they got closer causing her to break off into a run.
”Tale!”
”Keep up Su, she called out over the sound of the water.
He wasn't going to run after her. He was in deep already, with every minute he spends with her, his feelings grew but he did anyway.
She stopped at the edge of the hill looking back to make sure he was behind her.
”Loser is a monkey.”
”I let you win.”
She laughed as she held out her free hand to him.
”What?”
”Grab hold”
She switched off the torch she held as she led him further...
