"Different people have different ways of expressing themselves so we can't really complain about anything." Glancing at the watch, Guang sighed, "Okay, it's almost time for Qiang to wake up so I gotta go."

"Don't forget about the gold plan, we leave in an hour," Yushen reminded him.

Guang nodded his head and answered, "Uh huh, I will be there right on time."

"Will you meet me at the mall first? I need to buy some socks."

"Geez can't you go alone?"

Vigorously shaking his head, he grinned, "You know I don't like going to the mall alone, it's just a couple of minutes things. I swear we will be out before you know it."

Left with no other choice, Guang agreed.

….

Inside Qiang's room.

When Guang entered the room, Qiang had already woken up and was getting ready.

"Are you going somewhere babe?" he inquired.

"Hmm yes, I have a shoot," she answered.

Glancing at his watch, he frowned, "At this hour?"

"I-It's an early shoot," she hesitantly answered.

Crossing his arms at the front, he scrunched his brows, "And why didn't you tell me about it?"

Grabbing her bag, she answered, "It just slipped my mind."

"Slipped your mind? I drop you to the shooting location every time, if you would have told me I—"

Cutting him off, she snapped, "Is it necessary to tell you everything? Can't I have my own space?"

Thinking for a while, he sighed and nodded his head, "You are right, you don't have to tell me everything. I just thought it would be safe, I will also feel assured if I drop you off but it's alright." Grabbing his coat, he added, "I will just go and call me when you are home, okay?"

Without waiting for her reply, he walked out of?the room.

Tossing her bag on the bed, Qiang sat down and took a deep breath to calm herself down. Staying in the same position for a while, she grabbed her bag and walked out of the room.

As she was about to walk out of the main door, someone stopped her. "Where are you going this early?"

"I-It's an early shoot," Qiang answered.

Looking around, Zian frowned, "Guang is not dropping you today?"

"I told him not to because it's nearby and I can manage," she explained.

Placing his hand on her shoulder, he inquired, "Why do you look so pale?" Touching her forehead, he frowned, "Are you sick?"

Taking a deep breath, she assured him, "I am okay."

"Do you want me to drop you?"

She shook her head and answered, "No, I'll be fine." Glancing at her watch, she added, "I should leave now, I'll see you later brother Zian."

"Okay, go safe."

….

An hour later.

"Is everything okay?" Yushen inquired. It had been more than half an hour since they arrived at the mall and he hadn't said a word which was quite weird.

Nodding his head, Guang sighed, "Yeah everything is okay."

"Are you sure?" When he nodded his head, Yushen added, "Okay then, we should leave." Taking the bag from Guang's hand, he explained, "I'll bring the car out of the parking basement and you meet me outside, okay?"

"Alright, I'll be waiting."

…..

Parking basement.

Yushen scrunched his eyebrows when he saw three black vans parked beside his car which looked similar to the once which followed him. The basement was dark and it was very difficult to see whether there was someone sitting inside the van or not.

Not giving any kind of suspicious and obvious reaction, he slowly made his way towards his car. He then unlocked the back door to place the shopping bag before walking into the mall again. On his way back to the mall, he messaged Guang and asked him to come back to the mall and meet him near a specific store.

…..

Inside the mall.

"Yushen what happened? I thought you were meeting me outside?" Guang inquired.

"Yes but something weird happened. Do you remember what I told you this morning about the black van which I think is following me?" When he nodded his head, Yushen added, "There are three such vans in the parking basement parked right beside my car."

Scrunching his brows, Guang remarked, "Now that is weird."

"I know and now it's too obvious to be a coincidence." Pausing for a while, he inquired, "What should we do now? Call the police?"

"Call the police and tell them that three blacks which are parked in a parking basement are suspicious because you think it's following you? That is not a wise idea," Guang stated.

"Okay so what do we do?"

Thinking for a while, Guang snapped, "I have an idea."

….

Outskirts of the country.

Hospital

"Ms Qiang?"

Taking her glasses off, Qiang quickly got up.

"The doctor is waiting for you, please come in," the nurse instructed.

Without saying anything, she followed her inside.

….

Inside the cabin.

"Hello Ms Qiang, I am Dr. D'costa. Please have a seat," the doctor instructed before taking a file from the nurses hand.

Looking at Qiang's nervous expression, she smiled, "You don't have to worry about anything, your information and details will be kept confidential so please, relax."

"Thankyou doctor."

Going through the reports, the doctor sighed, "I think we should talk after the sonogram."

Biting her lower lip, Qiang nervously looked at the screen as the doctor kept on moving the device in her lower stomach.

Pointing towards the screen, the doctor explained, "You see this tiny dot? That is the fetus and it's around eight to nine weeks old."

Covering her mouth with her hand, Qiang started sobbing silently.

Patting her shoulder, the doctor sighed, "I am waiting for you in my cabin."

Wiping the tears with the back of her hand, she took a deep breath to calm herself down.
