Biyu has gone to another city to meet her sister for a few weeks. Lau Lan and Lan Zhan have shifted to Xian's home as they feel Xian needs them. Actually Lau Lan and Lan Zhan were also raised in the orphanage from where Biyu adopted Mark. Biyu wanted to adopt those two boys too but that time due to some reasons she wasn't able to but she always took care of their expenses while they were in the orphanage.

It's late night when they both returned home and after freshening up they went to Xian's room to have some talk with him. Unable to find him in his room they both went towards Xian's private cellar but he wasn't there too.

"I'm calling him," saying this Lan Zhan called Xian but his phone was off. So he called Li Wei to ask about Xian but he had no idea where he was gone. Lan Zhan turned to Lau and asked, "should I call Mark?"

"No. He isn't in the city for a few days. He will get worried. I think he must've gone to some bar to have drinks. Let's go to the bar where he always goes whenever he feels low," muttered Lau Lan. He was concerned because he was feeling Xian might get into the same darkness where he was gone once when Bai betrayed him.

Coming out of the house, locking the door behind them, Lan Zhan told Lau to wait there as he's bringing the car. After a minute Lan Zhan came there in his car and told Lau to get in. While driving Lau kept on calling Xian in a hope that he might turn his phone on but Xian didn't.

"He won't turn on the phone. You know him. He prefers to remain aloof whenever he goes through such a state," murmured Lan Zhan while driving the car. Lau Lan nodded to whatever Lan Zhan said.

In the bar Xian was again drinking alcohol. He took out the paper that Mishi had left him the day They both divorced. "How can you write this? Find some other woman who can truly love me?? My feelings, my love is growing day by day for you," murmured Xian and put the letter back in his wallet. He had already finished two bottles and was going to open third when Lan Zhan snatched the bottle from him.

Seeing them Xian smiled. With an amusing look he said, "you both come to give your lecture to me." He tried taking the bottle from him but Lan Zhan put the bottle far away from him. Xian glared at him with his bloody red eyes. Lau Lan sat beside Xian and said, "Did you really forget about her when you drink this?"

"I told you, didn't I?," blurted Xian. "You both are blocking me from doing the things which I desperately want to," mumbled Xian.

"Drinking the alcohol won't bring her back. Two years you waited for her. I know you were at fault but then the mistakes, misunderstanding were from both the ends. A clap never plays with a single hand. Two hands are needed for that. Why are you ruining your life over a girl who has already given up on you? This will not only hurt you but will hurt us too. Seeing you in this state really hurts us, Xian, " with a worried expression lamented Lan Zhan.

"Xian, everything has a limit. We want you to be happy. Think about your mother once. What she will feel if she'll find about this," said Lau Lan.

Xian remained silent for a few minutes. After thinking for a while he said, "let's go back home." Lan Zhan and Lau looked at Xian. They helped him in getting up and they left the bar.

Reaching the home, Xian rested in his room while Lau and Lan Zhan followed him. Xian fell on the bed and the sleep engulfed him within seconds. There were tears on the sides of his eyes and he was murmuring Mishi's name in his sleep. Lan Zhan looked at Lau and a worried voice said, "Xian's condition is worse than the last time. Can't we ask Yuwan to tell about the whereabouts of Mishi and then we can convince her."

Lau mumbled, " Xian and Mishi have talked about something before the divorce. Xian would've never given up on her but that day Mishi has said something to him that's why he lost hope." Lau then opened Xian's shoes and pulled out his wallet so that Xian could sleep comfortably. Lan Zhan put the blanket over him.

Lau was putting Xian's wallet on the table when the piece of paper came out of it and he looked at it. He put the wallet on the table and started reading the letter. Lan Zhan too read the letter along with Lau.

Lau put back the letter inside Xian's wallet. "She wrote that he should find a more suitable girl than her who can truly love him. She shouldn't have written that," said Lan Zhan and looked at Lau.

"Is someone blackmailing her again? Is it Bai?," asked Lau looking at Lan Zhan.

"She can be. In a day or two she will be arrested so I'll ask her this thing indirectly. If she will be behind this then we can tell Mishi that she has nothing to fear," stated Lan Zhan and looked at Lau.

"Let's see what should we can do," said Lau and they both walked out of Xian's room.

Mark was sitting outside on a chair thinking about his relationship with Yin. "She's my friend. She needs me in this hard time but look at me. I'm not able to do anything. You have pushed me from you. Should I apply for her early release from the jail?" Mark was in his deep thoughts when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He came out of his thoughts and turned his head to look at the person.

"Xia??," murmured Mark and got up from the chair.

"Why are you so shocked to see me? What happened? What are you thinking this late?," asked Xia. She was trying to read the expressions of Mark who was carrying an expressionless face.

"Nothing," mumbled Mark and then with his index finger he scratched at his forehead. Xia laughed and asked, "were you thinking about my idea of not going with that design?"

Mark looked at her and gave her a slight laugh. He put his hands inside his pants pockets. "You are still behind that thing. I'm telling you that the hall design is perfect. I'm more experienced than you so I won't agree on such a thing without putting a thought on it," stated Mark.

"Okay. In this thing I can agree with you. You're far more experienced than me. That's why I didn't raise an objection. I would've never Let you pass that thing and would have objected to you," muttered Xia and crossed her arms.

Mark smiled and said, "you seem a rebellious child. You want the things done in your own way. I wondered how the TMS CEO could appoint such a bad tempered woman as the assistant director. Not only that he forwarded this project to you? It's indeed surprising."

Xia looked at him in anger. "I wasn't interested in this project. It's just Mishi handed me the project before leaving Beijing. She said I'm capable of handling this project," stated Xia and looked at Mark with a glare.

"Ahhh...your eyes are firing. Please don't look at me you rebellious child," said Mark and tried turning her away. Xia stomped at Mark's foot and he screamed his lungs out.

" You insane girl. I have not worn shoes. I'm in slippers and you just….ahhhhhh," shouted Mark at her and sat on the chair.

"You called me a rebellious child," muttered Xia and tightened her fist. "How dare you call me an insane girl??" She was going to hit him again when Mark held her hand tightly. She looked at him and then yelled, "leave me you idiot" and pulled her hand back, hitting at his shoulder with her other hand. Mark smiled and pulled her towards him. She fell over his chest and they both looked at each other.

"What are you doing?," whispered Xia blinking her eyes

"What?," asked Mark with a raised brow.

"Leave my hand," whispered Xia.

"I've left your hand. See. Only your hands are on my chest and shoulder," said Mark. Xia looked at her hands and immediately got up. In anger she walked away from there.

Xia reached inside her room and sat on the bed. "Why am i feeling this way? Why are my cheeks burning?? No no this can't be true….," mumbled Xia. She threw her heels away on the floor and laid down on the bed.

"I shouldn't feel this way. But it's my first time having such a feeling which is strange," murmured Xia and covered her face with her palms.
