36 Goal Was To Ruin His Face (2/2)
However, he will quietly keep it to himself and not out loud ask to have a showdown with her. Who knows, she might just pop up in front of him one day. Assuming he wanted to fight her because of his constant smack talk about wanting to beat her up.
Let me explain. It all started because of Mu Yi, always. I decided to build up my courage to confess my feelings towards him. He didn't listen to what I had to say before rejecting me on the spot. That's when he told me he didn't see me anything more than a little sister. I always thought he had feelings for me based on how he treated me, compared to other women around him. Guess I was wrong.
Moving on, later that night I needed to find a place to cry my heart out. The only place that no one will hear me will be the greenhouse. After sobbing, I was making my way back to the house.
However, it was extremely dark inside the greenhouse. So I was slowly walking while looking down to make sure I don't hit or step on anything. Plus my eyes were blurry from crying too much. Being as careful as I was, I still accidentally tripped over a flower pot, causing me to scream out loud.
Then I heard a loud 'bang' coming from outside the greenhouse glass panel. When I looked up, I saw my second brother there with his eyes wide open and his jaw dropped. He began screaming and took off running. Now that startled me because I thought he saw something behind me! So I started running too. Then I saw my brother tripped over who knows what was in the way.
”Wait for me!” I tried shouting, but my voice was dry from all the crying.
He did not wait for me. Instead, he quickly got back up and sprinted down the gravel pathway. For the first time ever, my second brother outran me!
When I finally got to the house, all the doors were locked! What the heck? Before leaving, I made sure to leave at least one door unlocked. Ugh, I didn't have any choice but to climb through the window.
I wasn't sure what my brother saw behind me, but it did help me forget about Mu Yi just like that.
The very next day, it all came to light when everyone was asking what happened to his face. He told everyone he saw a ghost last night at the greenhouse, and it tried to harm him by grabbing his leg. No one believed his story. They all thought he was too drunk last night and was imagining things.
In the end, I couldn't bring myself to tell him who was the culprit for his trauma. Occasionally, I would hear him curse about wanting to beat up the greenhouse ghost or how she was super jealous of his beauty.
