I'm in a mess

Shu Zimu's POV:

It's been a month since we ( Tian Qi and I) kissed. Since then I've been following in all day around.

At first she didn't look at me and didn't speak. After few days of my pestering she finally was began to look at me.

I felt really happy and started pestering her more and more. I went to her apartment to give her breakfast daily and invite for lunch and dinner as well. Sometimes Zhang Ming'en and that cheerful friend of them also Join us for Lunch and dinner.

Zhang Ming'en just treated me as an acquaintance, while Xia Ning (Tian Qi's friend)

Already accepted him as soon to be her friends boyfriend.

I had a genuine feeling for Tian Qi and wanted to keep her by my side forever. I almost forgot the purpose of coming to city G.

Until today, I got call from my dad. He asked me when we're going to announce my engagement with Ling family's daughter.

Honestly, when dad put his idea in front of me, I agreed because it was just giving me more power but now.... I feel like, I'm in mess.

Why did I agreed to engage with Ling family's daughter? Just Why?

Meanwhile, Zhang Ming'en apartment building.

Ming'en's POV :

I stared at short green grass while sitting on garden's bench.

Just how come I reached this point?

I knew who my parents were. I knew it wasn't grandpa's fault that they died. I knew, people from my parents Clan wanted me to join them. But today when grandpa told me about my parents I still could not help myself.

I feel like I'm in a mess.

Just why people are after power? Before grandpa told me about my parents. I've already tried searching for their whereabouts once.

I finally learnt the truth. Somewhere I wanted to take revenge to but before I could even think of revenge I had to pay for that.

And now these people are coming back for me. Have I not paid enough? So they want me to pay back again? Just why I have to be in this mess?

"Ehem.... Mi... Shifu?" Suddenly Maggie's voice came from behind giving me goosebumps. She sat down next to and continued. "I... I'm sorry for today. I really didn't mean to hurt you."

I lowered my head and asked in low voice. "Why are you here? Didn't you have work to finish."

"I have, but shifu is more important than Work!" Maggie chimed.

"uh..." I suddenly felt like my heart stopped working. I become more sensitive of my surrounding. Aah What I just heard was hallucination right?

"Really shifu, from the first day we met you've been helping me. I'm really grateful for that. Before meeting you I felt like my life was a mess. But life seems really.... Well it feels good now. I'm not stressed as before."
