Earlston, Scotland, 10:00; "The software installed in all your devices is one of a kind, Yuan.", Rong Xinghe said, dicing the onions over the wooden chopping board, her technique smooth, "Until and unless someone gave them the direct way into the system, it'd be too risky for the hackers. Don't you think?" "How would she know my Password?", the man questioned, grabbing the knife from the woman, smiling at her meaningfully. Her eyes would itch, he reminded himself. How could he watch her suffer then, no…

Earlston, Scotland, 09:30; Rong Xinghe rushed into Xi Yuan's study as soon as she'd woken up, her one hand gripping onto her phone. "What happened?!", she questioned him, anxious, "Are you alright? I just had a word with Little Panda." Xi Yuan raised his head to look at the girl, his brows knit together. He seemed to be occupied with something urgent, so the girl halted at the entrance, waiting for him to conclude his work. The man reverted his gaze to his laptop screen a moment later, typing furiously…

Earlston, Scotland, 17:00; Rong Xinghe lowered her gaze from the book she had been reading to her darling. It'd been about one hour since he had fallen asleep on the couch itself, his head on her lap. He must've been tired, she inferred. Did he have to get up so soon to prepare meals? Couldn't he leave things to the staff for his own sake, for once? Such a stubborn man he was. As she was almost done with her novel, the woman shut it close, a yawn escaping her mouth. The girl leaned back a little,…

Huang Biu glared at the couple in silence as she stood in the corner of the room. He helped her with the medicines, and he fed her with his own hands. As if she were some delicate glassware. And yet, the same person had such an insensitive approach towards her. Where had she gone wrong, she wondered. In every aspect, she was better than Rong Xinghe for him. His 'ideal' partner, the media had once declared them. Unlike this girl, he would never need to worry about her well-being or safety, or health; for…

Rong Xinghe woke up at two in the day, an exhausted yet content smile across her mouth. As the memories of their first time floated in front of her eyes, like some flashcards, she giggled, turning to one side of the bed. Of course, he wasn't there. The girl sat up on the bed and as she did so, a sharp pain shot up through her head. "Ugh!", she groaned, rubbing her temple lightly. But the headache wouldn't go away. A warm bath might help, she thought, as she got down and put on her slippers. About…

Elite Plaza, City A, 19:00; "Eat up, dear!", Luo Youyou laughed, passing another bowl of noodles to Jiang Yue, "Don't feel shy." Both the Xi family and the Jiang family had gathered together that delightful evening for a casual dinner. The families needed to get along on an amiable note for the days to come for the sake of their children. Xi Fang and Jiang Yue were back together and they'd marry one day, eventually. Even though Jiang Yue's father, Jiang Qiyang knew that Xi Fang intended to wed his…

Earlston, Scotland, 12:15; Hours after, Xi Yuan woke up to Rong Xinghe's movements. Glancing at the clock on the table that read noon, he fixed his gaze upon the woman who was clearly tired by the indescribable things they'd done to each other not too long ago. The man smiled softly as he pulled her in his arms, placing a soft kiss against her lips. "Not again... Yuan.", the girl mumbled in her sleep, eliciting a laugh from her darling. She was so adorable. And so irresistible at the same time. How…

Earlston, Scotland, 08:40; Xi Yuan stared at the girl in a daze, her words still resounding in his mind. 'I want this, Yuan', she'd said, 'I want this to happen with you.' All those doubts, and uncertainties, flooding through his heart; those words were an end to them all. And it was then that he knew they were ready to become one another's. Entirely. With every atom in their body. He was at a loss of words to express his elation at the moment. He was no artist like her. He couldn't recite poems to…

Earlston Police Station, 07:45; As the Chief Superintendant reprimanded CI Lathurna, Xi Yuan allowed the woman in his embrace, planting a soft kiss against her forehead, relieved. He then took a step back and grabbed a chair next to him, helping her sit down. "Warm water.", he ordered one of the officers standing behind her, sitting down on his knees as he pulled his overcoat off of his shoulders and wrapped it around the girl. None of the staff in the Station house had the nerves to repudiate the…

Earlston Police Station, 07:30; Even after an hour-long investigation, the Chief Inspector refused to release the girl. He was a thirty-two-year-old offbeat local man, who had no idea of Rong Xinghe and Xi Yuan's identity. His working style was known to be strange and even out-of-protocol at times. However, despite that, he was an immensely resilient and stubborn person with a deep concern for his town. So people in Earlston, more often than not, chose to let go of his negatives. Not to mention, amid…
