Siblings

Darren true to his words, came to pick Shin Tong up from work, she was surprised when she exited the building she saw him leaning against a tree.

"What are you doing here?" she asked him acting ignorant.

He rapped her forehead.

"Hey, what was that for?" she asked while glaring at him.

"I don't know how you manage a corporation when your memory seems poor. Do you need help to jog your memory?" he said as he spun her around and lean in towards her.

Her face immediately blushed while pushing him away as she recalled the kiss he gave her earlier.

"Hey, just what do you think you are doing? Behave or I will get securities to apprehend you, a scoundrel" she said.

"Is this how you treat the man who intends to pursue you?" he asked as he stared intently into her eyes causing her to fluster. Darren himself wasnt doing too well. His palms were sweaty and his heartbeat were chaotic.

He has seen Ji Yu's actions with Ru Ran and he hopes he will succeed as well.

Shin Tong was equally nervous, did the block of wood said he plans to pursue her? What should I do? Her mind was in a chaos. Why did it seem the man in front of her so calm without any emotions?

She pushed him away but this time he stumbled and his leg was caught by tree root causing him to fall backward. Shin Tong quickly went forward and grabbed his sweaty palm. Feeling his sweaty palm caused her to laugh out loud.

This man, it seems he is not emotionless, his sweaty palm was a give away. It seems she is not the only one nervous.

"Are you laughing at my misfortune?" he asked amused because her laughter was infectious. It sounded like a beautiful melody to his ears.

"Nooo. Nothing," she said as she smiled mischievously. She helped him up.

He was surprised by her sudden change of temperament. So, it is true women are hard to predict.

He then saw her wiped her hands on her dress after she helped him up. He then looked at his sweaty palm and understood the reason for her laughter. She must have noted his sweaty palms. Damn.

"I have an illness, called palmar hyperhydrosis," he blurted.

"It sweats more when you get anxious, excited and scared right?" she asked directly.

She has a friend with this illness as well, that is why she knows the disease at the back of her hand.

He pretended to not hear anything, grabbed her hands and said, "What do you want to eat?"

His avoidance, in addition to that, redness at the tips of his ears all confirmed her theory made her laugh again. This man, has emotions after all.

Darren continue to drag her along. Refusing to look at her. Why is his outcome is different from Ji Yu?

During dinner, Shin Tong now more relaxed, chatted away about herself and asked Darren a little about himself. The atmosphere was good. Darren soon relaxed as well and the first time in his life, he spoke more than his 26 years combined.

Meanwhile, Ji Yu and Ru Ran were going to meet up with Xin Xin and Uncle Tek. Somehow, they received a call from Xin Xin saying that Uncle Tek had gotten in a fight with Ken and are on the way to the hospital instead as Uncle Tek sustained some injury.

Both Ji Yu and Ru Ran rushed to the hospital. There they were surprised to see that both Ken and Uncle Tek present, both injured with two police officer taking their statements. Ji Yu sized up Ken and the latter also did the same. Ken also lingered his gaze on Ru Ran which annoyed Ji Yu and he used his body as a shield. Xin Xin stood behind Uncle Tek while glaring at Ken.

The atmosphere was truly hostile and if looks could kill, many would have died at the scene. Ru Ran approach Xin Xin to get the details of event.

"We were walking down Indian Street when a group of men surrounded us, one of the men, exclaimed I have the exact same eyes like their boss. They tried to grab me, and of course Ah Wah would not allow them. Both of us defended ourselves against them and victory was on our side when he arrived. He then started staring at me and Ah Wah did not like it and they ended up exchanging blows. He viciously attack Ah Wah's chest which has yet to recover.. Sob sob sob, people nowadays really have no regards for other people. They can simply block people's way do such things," whispered Xin Xin fiercely.

Ken could hear her words clearly despite her whispering and could only smile bitterly. Sister, you are bad mouthing your own brother. Do you know how many years I have spent looking for you? The old man that I have collaborated with gave me the idea to widened my search and that led to you. How is it you are all chummy and happy at the enemy camp?
