Yating restlessly moved from his left to right side on the bed, feeling sweaty and breathless. He rubbed his forehead and pressed his brows, coughing a lot. He was quite exhausted with back to back meetings and responsibilities in Gu Corps and Dream High when Guiying and Zhan Yahui insisted him to leave for the day and rest at home.

"Guiying...are you still here..."

He heard no response. He felt his head aching and the surroundings spinning in front of him.

The doorbell rang a few times, and he didn't even have the energy to get up. "Guiying...can you get that..."

When he still got no response and the doorbell still kept ringing, he had no choice but to attend it on his own. He opened the door and was surprised to see Ai. "Ai?"

Ai's eyes widened seeing him in such a weak state. He was clutching his stomach with beads of sweat escaping his forehead. "What happened to you?"

"Nothing..."

Ai quickly helped him inside and made him sit on the couch. "First, you sit down. I didn't know you were in such a dire condition."

Yating tried to focus on her, but his gaze was getting more and more blurry. "I...don't know what happened. I was feeling tired and then my stomach started to ache..." he breathed hard. "Why...why are you here?" He breathlessly asked.

"Because you messaged me for help. Now, I know why."

"I did...?" Yating couldn't exactly remember. Though he did faintly remember trying to call Guiying before.

Did I accidentally message Ai at that time?

His headache was getting worse and making him unable to think.

"Where is...she?"

"She?"

"Ah? Ah yes..." he whispered. "Guiying. She was the one who...took me home."

"Oh. I don't see her," Ai said as she looked around his house.

"Is she out to get medicine?" He mumbled to himself.

Ai pursed her lips. "How did your condition get so bad?"

Yating waved his hand. "I am fine...You can go."

He wobbled on his feet and headed towards his room.

"Wait! I will help you."

"I am fine, Ai. You can leave..." he blinked his eyes, feeling painful in his head. "Guiying will be back in sometime."

"Yes but until then, I cannot leave you alone. What if you fainted? Have you eaten anything?"

Yating brought his brows closer. "I am not sure...if I want to eat anything..." he said as he laid on the bed.

"Then I will make some rice porridge for you. It will be light on your stomach."

"No, really...don't take so much trouble for me," he weakly whispered.

Ai smiled. "It's no trouble. Wait for me."

Outside, 'Guiying' had seen Ai rushing towards Yating's house. An hour ago, Yating genuinely seemed to be sick and tired. At first, 'she' didn't think of it much. But thinking about his weak condition, she slowly formed a plan in her mind. So, 'she' offered him a ride back home after talking to him with Zhan Yahui.

She helped him settle, took his phone and dropped a message to Ai. Rest all was what Ai needed to do.

'Guiying' smiled. "Let the game begin."

Xing Bi had no clue why she was doing this. Before she knew it, she caught a cab and started following Sun Bai's cab. Seeing Sun Bai in perfect health when she was supposed to be on sick leave crept an odd feeling in her heart.

I don't know why I am following her. She is Miss. Sun. Very capable and hardworking. Maybe she wasn't that seriously sick?

Xing Bi kept scratching her chin, trying to decide whether to stop following her or not.

If Miss. Sun sees me following her, I will be so dead. What will I tell her if she catches me? She will feel sad to know that I am doubting her, right?

She exhaled a sigh and felt guilty for this act.

Suddenly, Sun Bai's cab stopped and so did Xing Bi's. Xing Bi craned her neck and saw Sun Bai stepping down with the man who accompanied her and walked into a small apartment complex.

She cleared her throat.

Is that her boyfriend?

But Xing Bi couldn't quite like the aura that man gave off. He had a beard and messy hair and his overall expression looked quite stingy.

Is that man really her boyfriend?

Xing Bi waited for a while but then decided to leave. She said to the cab driver. "Take me back to this address..."

Just two seconds later, she saw Sun Bai stepping out again with a grim countenance on her face.

"Wait, wait!" Xing Bi stopped the driver.

The driver's mouth twitched.

What does this woman want?

She didn't see the man again with Sun Bai as she left the apartment.

Maybe this is his house...But Miss. Sun doesn't look so happy.

She saw Sun Bai taking another cab and leaving. Xing Bi glanced at the apartment once again, not really knowing what to think. She particularly didn't get any answers by following her and her stalking trip proved to be fruitless.

Once again, Xing Bi felt guilty.

Maybe Miss. Sun really had some reason for faking a sick leave.

She thought back to that night at Sky.

I am definitely overthinking stuff.

"Let's go."

The driver asked, "You don't want to follow her, Mam?"

"..."

She coughed. "...No. Take me back. For real this time."

Ai brought a bowl of warm rice porridge for Yating and placed it on the bedside table near him. "Eat it."

Yating coughed. "I really don't feel like eating..."

"Eat it," it was more of an order than a request.

He promptly took the bowl so as not to offend her further. "Thanks..."

As he ate the porridge, he glanced at Ai who was seriously watching him back and ensuring that he wasn't skipping any bite.

Sensing his stare, Ai asked, "Do you need something else?"

"Hm? Oh no, no!" Yating quickly smiled it off. He wiped his forehead, feeling nervous.

This is the first time that she is at my house, right?
