A meeting with Mi Chan

A week later,

A sigh escaped Sang Qian's lips, when she pulled herself up from the bed. The room was filled with a golden light coming through the blinds. Even though it was a new day, something from her past was catching up with her. She felt weirdly uncomfortable in her own room that day. Maybe it was the dream of her past that made her uncomfortable.

Removing the duvet, she stepped down. The coldness of the floor spread through her feet but it didn't stop her from reaching out for the blinds and peek out of them. It seemed as if she woke up later than usual. Her lips curved into a small smirk of self mockery as she turned around and walked to the nightstand.

Her phone had a single notification," You forgot to pick me up from the airport yet again." Her eyes widened, She almost forgot about Qin Si. Damn! Before she could even start hurrying up the bell ringed. She just wished it wasn't trouble. The lady worker also left, it's been a week already.

Time has passed quickly. Her wound has almost healed. She can walk a little freely now. Sang Qian walked outside and ran her fingers through her locks. Her face said it clearly that she just woke up. Her messed up hair, and without bothering, she unlocked the door and boom, her heart almost jumped out, when she saw two most unexpected people.

Wang Zhao and Mi Chan. All her tiredness and drowsiness blew away. She just knew that she was speechless. She knew she didn't look bad like this but she had some reputation to behold. She gulped as her eyes met with Wang Zhao who wasn't less surprised. Then her eyes traveled to Mi Chan who was shocked just like herself.

Three of them were in a huge shock having their own reasons. Little did Sang Qian expect this. Moreover, she didn't even check what she was wearing. When the thought hit her and she looked down just to see that she was wearing an oversized loose baby pink t-shirt which barely covered her full thighs.

Her cheeks started turning red from embarrassment. At that point, she couldn't think of anything else than that. She didn't even think why would they be here? But in the end Wang Zhao cleared his throat and Sang Qian smiled awkwardly at both of them," come inside." And she hurried to her own room closing the door with a bang.

She quickly changed into jeans and a crop top. Brushing her teeth hurriedly, she washed her face and ran outside. Just then did she realize that two people sitting on the couch were the reason she was hurt in the past. Both of them fooled her in some way or maybe she fooled herself trusting them.

Sang Qian's brain was hit with flashbacks from past again when her eyes landed on the smiling Mi Chan. She trusted her so much, in the end, she was just deceived from that innocent facade. Sang Qian's expression turned cold slightly as she walked to the kitchen pouring some water for them.

Mi Chan on the other hand cleared her throat," We're sorry for coming like this. Should have informed you beforehand." Sang Qian smirked lightly," Oh com'on, we all know that if that happened, I wouldn't have let you in. I was just not in the right mind before, to let you step in. I might have to sanitize this area later."

Wang Zhao shot her a glare which she ignored placing the tray elegantly in front of them," here, have some Poison-free water. I am reassuring just In case Mr.Zhao misunderstands my intentions like every other time. And you Mi Chan, I can't deny you have turned even more beautiful than before."

Mi Chan's eyes held a hidden emotion of coldness as she smiled," Thank you sister Qian. You have also had a bigger glow up. Everyone does after heart break." Sang Qian didn't even bat an eyelid," All thanks to you." The smile never left her face.

She diverted her eyes on Wang Zhao," so, What brings you here?" He sighed," Mi Chan wanted to see you." She nodded," Interesting you see." He held Mi Chan's hand and intertwined their fingers, Sang Qian only raised her eyebrows cause for the very first time, it was very cringeworthy to her. She twitched her lips and looked anywhere but their hands," Why did you want to see me Mi Chan?"

The girl smiled," Cause I missed you. Wanted to see how you were doing. And even the apartment, it hasn't changed a bit. Still neat and clean as I remember. If not for you saving me that night, I wouldn't have been here by Zhao's side."

Sang Qian's smile dropped lightly as she thought about the old memories which cost her, her own life. She blinked bringing back the smile," I see, I shouldn't have done that though."

Wang Zhao on the other had a frown on his face. He didn't even know what they were talking about. Sang Qian looked at him again," So I heard there is an engagement party the day after. Congratulations." He smiled lightly, slightly uncomfortable with her wishes. He didn't know why he was getting uncomfortable all of a sudden.

Mi Chan also looked at him," Can you excuse us. I have something to talk with Sang Qian in private. It's a girl talk." He smiled and patted Mi Chan's head before he looked at Sang Qian briefly and walked outside," I will be waiting outside."

As soon as the door closed, Mi Chan let go of the elegant posture she was sitting in and slumped herself back crossing her one leg over the other. She tilted her head lightly and smiled," So, How have you been? Still searching about me? Trying to find a proof against me?" Sang Qian smirked as she stood up and walked to the small box lying on the dining table.

Opening it she pulled out a Pistol. Her gold plated G-18. She smirked at Mi Chan and then she pulled out a picture from the same box. She swayed her hand as she walked near Mi Chan and placed the picture on the table. She pointed the gun up in the air," Surprise."

Sang Qian had an evil smirk on her face. Mi Chan's eyes were fixed on the picture as the colour from her face slowly faded. She looked like she could faint any moment. Sang Qian smiled and pulled the gun back, placing it on a side," I see. You seem really surprised. But it's okay. You don't have to worry too much. Take this picture with you. I don't want it."

Mi Chan's eyes were rather blank as she looked at Sang Qian. She seemed to be in a deep shock. She scoffed," How long have you known?"

Sang Qian blinked," How long do you think I have known?"

Mi Chan sighed, trying to stay calm. She voiced out her thoughts without herself knowing," Its been three years. I clearly remember this day. But... how did you know? It's impossible unless..."

Sang Qian sighed," Oh No No, I didn't get this picture from Li Zinhuo, he isn't even aware about a single thing. He is so in love with you that he would give up his world for you. I am nothing."

Mi Chan felt raged," Shut your mouth. What do you mean he is in love?!"

Sang Qian smirked," didn't he confess yet? It's been more than five years since you both have known each other. He has been protecting you from god knows who for this long, why? Who does that now a days, unless they love you, care for you? Moreover, he has been wasting him time over you? Had not dated a single soul since you came in his life? Is that a coincidence? I suppose not."

Mi Chan was speechless. But she composed herself and stood up. Sang Qian didn't even get the chance to pick the gun back up, when Mi Chan grabbed it and swiftly shifted to Sang Qian's side. Sang Qian managed to get up in time. Mi Chan let out a scoff and walked to her, and grabbed her collar.

Sang Qian was standing still, she was rather amused by Mi Chan's effort. A smile made it's way on her lips when she saw Mi Chan's cold face and eyes. If looks could kill, Mi Chan would have killed Sang Qian a hundred times already. Both of them knew it.

Mi Chan pressed the gun under Sang Qian's chin," Don't you try me Sang Qian. I know you are trying to manipulate me. And You don't have to tell me about my relationship with Li Zinhuo. I am a hundred percent sure, he was not the one who told you all of this but I am also sure, that he might care for me. But he vowed he won't fall for me, ever. He despised me then, he despises me now."

Sang Qian, as if looking into Mi Chan's soul, was still calm. Her black orbs stared deeply in Mi Chan's hazel ones," I bet, You're raged, only because you cannot afford to admit your own feelings for Li Zinhuo. The fact that the innocent Mi Chan, who was doing all of this for good is actually now nothing but a Villainess. Even more Evil than I am."

Mi Chan's heart was pierced with Sang Qian's words. She knew what Sang Qian said was truth but she won't admit. Sang Qian very easily snatched the gun," I am not afraid of you Mi Chan, because no matter what, I will always be on a higher level of you. You can't be a villainess in this life. I am the one who gets all the attention in this lifetime. Even If you think you are innocent, you are wrong, I am supposedly much more innocent than you."

Mi Chan sighed closing her eyes," Fine then. I give up. What do you want?"

Sang Qian raised a brow and patted Mi Chan's head," If I wanted something from you. I would not have waited for Three years. I simply don't want you to hurt Wang Zhao. No matter how asshole of a person he is, I didn't spend all these year wasting my energy on him for no reason. He still deserves a happy ending, I gave up on him to give him one. You will do whatever it takes too."

At that moment, Mi Chan was taken aback. Sang Qian's words were clear and sharp. She gulped. She wanted a happy ending for Wang Zhao? Mi Chan blinked and the only thing she saw in Sang Qian's eyes were brewing emotions. She saw warning, coldness, rage, sadness, frustration, love all at once.

At that moment, did Mi Chan realize how wrong she was when she thought Sang Qian wanted to hurt her. All she wanted was her love to be happy. And there was Mi Chan, who still didn't know whether she should marry Wang Zhao or not. She blinked and stepped away. Just then Wang Zhao entered. His eyes traveled to Sang Qian's hands which held the gun.
