390 Why Didnt You? (2/2)
Her steps faltered a bit but he held her arm to support her. ”You're really trying to kill yourself. How much blood did you donate?”
”Not much,” she answered with a sweet smile. ”Just enough to save that young girl's life. She is still young and her mother loves her so much. I can do this much for her.” She took a pause as she removed the pins from her hair saying, ”Besides, blood can be restored. I mean all I have to do is eat healthily and blood will replenish.”
He was really wondering what was going through her mind. What kind of person would risk their whole career for a stranger? How could she be so nonchalant about this? Tonight was supposed to take her a step higher in stardom but all she cared about was how she saved someone's life.
”New assistant, remember one thing in life... Kindness is not a gesture. It's an art. It's a real beauty. If a person doesn't have kindness, he really doesn't know what beauty or happiness feels like.” She had spoken with a smile as she settled in the car.
”Now I know why your previous assistant called you crazy. You're literally in the truest sense, crazy.”
”Being crazy is better than being cold-hearted.”
Han Bohai stared at her face through the mirror and sighed out, ”Be careful Sister Xiu, people like you have to often pay a hefty price for their kindness.” Xiu frowned at his words. ”Living in a cold-blooded society, you can't save yourself from being tainted.”
If only she had taken his words seriously back then.
”Then I'll show you. Kindness is repaid by heaven. Who wants a repayment from mere humans? What can humans possibly give me?”

Coming back to the present...
The moonlight fell on her figure as she sat in the balcony under the cold breeze holding her head with both hands. Never in her wildest dreams did she think that heaven's way of repayment was so bizarre.
The girl she saved that night, she was living in the same girl's body now.
What kind of a joke was it?
She indeed genuinely wanted that young girl to live her life to the fullest but now, she was occupying her body. Did she really deserve it?
She hurriedly put the letter back into the box and closed it. Her thoughts were all over the place now. Her feelings were even messier. That's why she didn't dare read the other letters. No wonder, Destiny said they had a connection. It was a weird connection but it was still there.
She needed to collect herself before she could read through the next letters. If each of the letters was gonna bring such painful memories from her past to flash before her eyes, she really didn't know how she was gonna handle it.
”Destiny... Why didn't you send these letters?” she questioned in a hushed voice to no one in particular.
