She stood still for a second in speechlessness before scoffing!

"It seems like you are still the egoistic and self-obsessed man you have always been, I am very sorry for smiling at you, please forgive this peasant for smiling at you," she responded in a sarcastic tone then she rolled her eyes and turned around to leave.

​​

He clenched his fist tight.

Until the veins on his temples became clear.

He followed after her, he gripped her hand tight then pushed her to the wall roughly, causing her to wince aloud.

She scrunched her brows in shock then tried to pull out of his grip but failed.

"You can hate, detest and even feel disgusted at the sight of me, I don't care but! you must never stop caring..." he whispered at the end of his sentence, she widened her scrunched eyes with her eyes looking into his eyes.

She realised that the look in his eyes has changed, this part of him....is scary!

"Chen Kai, let me go," she growled, pretending not to be scared of him but her quivering eyes couldn't hide her fear, she certainly has the skills and ability to break free from his hold even if she might get injured but his entire mannerism keeps her under control.

"Let you go---in your dreams, I don't care if you get engaged with Han Chen or even get married to him but the fact that you are mine will never change,"

"You are crazy!" she shouted with her eyes bulged, looking into his eyes, what she sees is not love or hate but an obsession.

"Yes, I am crazy but whose fault is it, if you didn't continually challenge me with Han Chen then I won't be like this, aren't you just doing all that for me to see?"

"You are really delirious, who do you think you are and when did I ever challenge you, I am in love with Han Chen and I belong to him only,"

"Shut up! why would you love him over me, he is just a fool who feeds off his aunt's influence,"

"You don't deserve to speak of him..." she hissed, with her hands itching to send a slap across his face until the image of his raised hand reflected in her eyeball.

She raised her gaze to his raised hand but another pair of hands were holding his hand in the air, she turned to the person but couldn't see his face because he wearing a mask.

"Loser," the stranger suddenly punched his face twice with much force causing him to fall to the ground then he held Yu Yan's hand and pulled her out of the hallway.

Only until they got far away did he bring down his mask but she still doesn't recognise him.

The young man let go of her hand almost instantly then he smiled at her with his lips slightly curled up, she could tell that he is not one of the many who has other intention in helping her.

"You are..."

"Li Wei, An Ke's boyfriend," he responded with his hand held out for a handshake but Yu Yan kept her eyes fixed on his face, she realized that he is indeed the one in the picture An Ke sent to her last night even though she didn't care to take a good look at it last time.

"You must be the one she met at the café," she remarked, ignoring his hand held out for a handshake, he took the cue to withdraw his hand then he pursed his lips in a smile to pretend it wasn't awkward.

She just guessed from Li Chen's rambling after he got drunk.

"Indeed, why does it sound like you don't like that?" in fact he was waiting for her to say 'thank you'.

"Why don't we talk over a cup of coffee, I don't have any patient to attend to in the next forty minutes," she said, glancing at her digital watch.

He scoffed in amusement, first, she didn't thank him for saving her and secondly, she didn't even care to ask if he was free to have a cup of coffee but he decided to go with her flow, meanwhile, he has already tagged her as 'interesting'.

Letting her lead, he followed her to the cafe, she was at least courteous enough to get him a cup of coffee...he thought.

They sat in the middle of the cafe then she folded her hand over her chest with a stern look on her face but he maintained the smile she finds annoying on his lips.

"What is your intention with An Ke?" she questioned straightforwardly.

"To be her boyfriend which I already am," he answered in the same tone she spoke to him in.

"I don't think that would remain the same after today,"

He sighed then he leaned on the table with his eyes fixed on hers.

"I was just about to ask why she ran off last night but it seems like you want to break us up," he sounded offended, strangely....he himself found it strange.

It seemed like he was nervous-

"She probably ran off to see the one who really cares about her and is meant for her,"

"You mean Li Chen?"

She squinted her eyes at him, she found it annoying that he seems to know a lot and now that she thinks about it, how did he know she is close with An Ke unless An Ke told her about them.

"It seems like you are very observant,"

"Indeed but I can assure you, An Ke will never break up with me for him," his confident tone somehow pleased her, he has been observing An Ke secretly so he sort of knows everyone in their friend group but among them, Li Chen drew his attention...the look in his eyes when he looks at An Ke just screams his feeling for her.

"Do you really think she doesn't know the dude has feelings for her, you might not know this but I and An Ke are the same so I can say confidently that I know her more than you think you do,"

Now his confidence is starting to get on her nerves, she smirked then unfolded her arms as she leaned closer on the table.

"You know your confidence is really annoying, don't you?"

His lips curved into a proud smile.

"She likes that about me,"

She scoffed!

Even though she doesn't want to admit, she can't help but agree that they are awfully similar in terms of personality.

"Well, you pass,"

"Pass...were you just screening me?"

"Maybe, why did you save me...at the risk of your job?" everyone knows Chen Kai is the son of the Chairman and he is the one managing the hospital as a subsidiary, even if he wants to save her, he wouldn't have punched him...twice.

"Maybe because I just couldn't stand losers," he folded his arms loosely with a proud smirk, she narrowed her eyes as it seemed to her that there is something she is missing about him.

"I was expecting you to say 'thanks' but it seems like you don't have any intention to, if you don't have any more screening to do then I will take my leave," he smiled broadly then he stood up from the seat to leave but as he took a few steps-

"Thanks," she felt guilty for not thanking him.

He raised her hand then gave her a back wave before leaving.

She sighed then sipped her coffee that has already turned cold from all the talking.

"He is totally An Ke's type but why do I feel like I have seen him before...before seeing the picture," she tilted her head in an attempt to think deep but no matter how much she tried to remember, she just can't remember it so she decided to forget it.
