"I understand." Xiao Yun replied. The classmates all whispered at each other in a hushed tone while the teacher had turned his back to resume the lesson. Most of them commented at how pale Xiao Yun's face was and the bandage that started from her palm to the wrist.

When she sat back at her desk, the table had been changed again out of consideration. Xue Xiu Yong didn't seem to be the mood at studying as he had crossed his legs on top of his desk with a face ready to eat anyone who came near him.

Even as Xiao Yun sat next to him, he didn't budge or gave a glance. The teacher was about to start the lesson again when Xue Xiu Yong finally glanced at Xiao Yun's hand and stood up from his seat to stride away from the classroom with loud footsteps and door slamming.

The people in the class glanced at the door with a surprised face while the teacher could feel the veins on his neck popping from his rude behavior.

On the afternoon after the lunch break, Nie An and Zhi Ling Ling insisted to both the teacher and Xiao Yun to guard her until the guidance room and Xiao Yun explained everything that happened to the teacher. With a disturbed face, the teacher kept on shooking their head, promised to guard the class even better, and find the clue to lead the bully and stopped them.

Xiao Yun exited the room with a grateful face. But deep down, she felt a sense of emptiness, when she was a no one and when she was bad at tricking people, no one wanted to lend her a hand much less hear her plead of help when she was bullied. They turned their head away from her, acting as though nothing happened. As long as it is not them, how would they care about the other person?

"...Hope they would be caught soon. How could they be so evil to do so?!" Nie An's voice faded back in, bringing her back from her line of thought. "Xiao Yun?"

"Yes?" Xiao Yun broke her gaze away from the window and blinks in a puzzle.

Nie An breath out, perhaps she had grumbled too much while Xiao Yun who was experiencing it didn't whine for a single second. Ruffling to her hair the three of them walked up to the class. Xiao Yun stepped forward to the staircase and for a moment saw Xue Xiu Yong's figure from the window and halted her stride.

"Xiao Yun?" Nie An nearly on the top of the stair called her name, thinking that Xiao Yun was still in her daze.

"It's nothing." Xiao Yun brushed it off and walked back to the stairs.

By the time in the evening, Xiao Yun who had made promised with Zi Gong stopped at Azure Building with fresh pastel orange working clothe. While Hi Gu Yan parked their car, she and Tian Yi entered the office to see Chuan Huan Jing sitting in the designing room which was filled with mannequins and hand made gowns.

"Miss Yu." Chuan Huan Jing stood up from his seat in the middle of his gown designing and called her.

"Hello, Mr. Chuan. You don't need to speak with formality, I'm younger than you after all." Xiao Yun replies as she took a seat on the chair.

Chuan Huan Jing immediately shook his head, "I can't do that, Ms. Yu. You are my superior."

Xiao Yun wrinkled her lips but Chuan Huan Jing was fast to steer the conversation around. "It's about yesterday's call Ms. Yu."

"Ah, yes I'm here to discuss that." Xiao Yun glanced around the room with her index finger left hanging. "Where's Mr. Zu?"

Chuan Huan Jing placed all his paper into a stack and glanced at Xiao Yun's finger that's still hanging. "He had just left to the fabric dealer, I don't know the specific reason but they have been giving many problems with the payments. It seemed that they want to raise the price again and Yi Nian became angry so he left for them."

"Hm..." Xiao Yun muttered silently while tapping the side of her table and saw Chuan Huan Jing trotting to brew a tea for her. As he served it to the side Xiao Yun spoke. "When would our store be open again?"

Azure company had been on hiatus as they needed to search for an investor. Seeing the mannequins around her had been prepared to be used for sewing new clothes, the problem must have been only the fabrics.

"This Spring it should be opened again. After the fabric shipped to the company, it should be done on time." Chuan Huan Jing fiddled with his callused fingers and kept on glancing down with his hair covering half of his upper face.

"The fabric that this company often use, do it have to be specifically from there?" Xiao Yun took a sip on her tea calmly.

"No, it shouldn't be."

Xiao Yun gave a long hum as she replied, Chuan Huan Jing's words kept on dwelling on her mind like a hook. "I have a question, Mr. Chuan."

"Please ask." Chuan Huan Jing saw her stern eye and faint traces of smirk in her face and heard her talking again.

"Is this company important to you?" She placed the teacup on the plate with a crisp clink, facing up to examine his expression which was futile as it was covered with ruffled bangs.

"It is more important than my life. This had been my passion and the reason for my life. Without this company, I wouldn't be able to live."

His straightforward answer was filled with passionate resolve. Since he was young he had drowned himself in the sparkling yet stiff fashion world. The colors that the designer used, which kind of fabric people use, sewing method, and every new fashion style coming to the field he would study the up to date. Every of his hard work could be seen clearly from his designs of clothes.

Xiao Yun who was keen on sensing someone else's passion felt as though she didn't have to ask him more. If he confirmed that his company is even more than his life, even after Zhu Yi Nian's betrayal he should be able to wake up and stand up again.

"Anyway, I have told you about the new person the would be working here for our finance." As they spoke, someone knocked on their door, making both heads snapped to the source of the sound.

A well-shaped head with silver eyeglasses popped from the right side of the door, his eyes timidly look around as though he was making sure that he came to the right place and saw Xiao Yun sitting there with Chuan Huan Jing in front of her.

"Mrs. Wang..." Zi Gong had not received Xiao Yun's name and thought that she was Wang Li Lei's wife and thus called her by Mrs. Wang.

"Mrs. Wang?" Xiao Yun lifted her brow, not in dislike but rather all smile. "I'm not Mrs. Wang. Mr. Zi, please take a seat here." She pointed her hand on the seat in front of her.

"Let me introduce myself properly. My name is Yu Xiao Yun, the head director of this company. A pleasure to meet you"

Zi Gong saw her hand that she reached out, wiping his hand to his pants, he returned back her handshake. "It's a pleasure to meet you too."

"I have talked to custody that took in Mr. Kim and the lawyer has also negotiated for Mr. Kim to dismiss the interest of the debt that you have with him. As you have paid almost half of the debt, you have some loss but no harm is done and so the debt you have with him is completed." Xiao Yun leaned back pulling a paper that had been signed by Kim Hui Cha for Zi Gong to read.

As expected, Zi Gong's face was colored in surprise and shock as though he had just seen someone coming back to life. In the paper, Kim Hui Cha signed his promise to end his deal for demanding further interest to Zi Gong and to have nothing to do with Zi Gong. It was a promise that could lead to his life being freed.

"T- Thank you very much." Zi Gong bowed and saw Xiao Yun's hand lending a tissue for him. When he looked up, he finally felt the tears dripping to his cheeks. He took the tissue and kept on murmuring thanks while the considerate Chuan Huan Jing decided to prepare a new cup of tea to withdraw from the room.

Xiao Yun stared at the scene in front of her in silence. Wang Li Lei was the man of his name, he was fast and efficient with his work, it had only been a day after Kim Hui Cha was taken in by the police and the next day he prepared time for Xiao Yun to discuss Zi Gong's debt interest with Kim Hui Cha. But when she sat in front of Kim Hui Cha it was evident that he was scared to his wits, agreeing to anything that Xiao Yun said without giving a single complaint.

He had also become overly polite and kept on bowing with a jittery face. Although Xiao Yun was half-sure that Kim Hui Cha was more frightened to see Jang Hyun standing behind her as they talk, it seemed he also feared that Xiao Yun would trick him again.
