In a corner

"I know, you don't like her..."

"Like? Bro, I wish to bury her deep into the earth, where her body touches the volcano. And oh, before burying I would want to give her a painful death. I'm sure this isn't just a matter of not liking, it's clearly hating her to her death."

"Can you please not say such cruel things for my girl in front of me." Chen hissed.

ZouMi looked at him coldly, which send shivers down his spine, even if he was her brother, he knows more than anyone out there, her anger can take anyone to their grave.

"My girl? I dare you to tell her your girl once again in my presences." Her red bloodshot eyes made him nervously gulped his own saliva.

"Ca... Can you please stop scaring me." He stuttered. ZouMi closed her eyes, taking control over her emotions. By the time she reopened her eyes, it turned back to normal, the calm, clear as ocean water.

"What's the connection between her behaving weird and Sid Bao?"

"The guy she met had a logo of Sid family army."

Sid's family being the prestigious family of the country has their own trained army, like other prestigious family of the country has. Only the head has access to control the members of the army. ZouMi hide her cunning smile, this was what she was waiting for, she made them fall in her trap!

"Did cat caught your tongue? Why aren't you saying anything?"

"Why would she meet any person from Sid family army? Neither her dad, nor her mother has any connection with them, isn't it questionable? The members of army are trained since they're ten in field, so being friends would never be in question." ZouMi sowed a seed of doubt in him, now he would just work as she has thought, being an intern in a well-defined law firm isn't easy, he can figure out the rest.

"Go! I ain't free like you, I've work to do." In daze Chen nodded and left. Once he left, ZouMi stare at the sky, what was going on with her? Why is her anger and emotion not in control of her? She never dare to make her brothers wary of her, but today...

Everything seems to be changed, yet nothing changed!

ZouMi called Si Ban in her room, "Force her in a corner, don't let her take drugs, she is highly addicted and won't be stable for long. Chen has some doubts now, so it would be easy to get rid of her, she is alone and Sid Bao won't be concentrating on her once we set our plan. I want her to be caught red handed by Chen." Jing Ran became an eyesore for ZouMi, she quickly wanted to eliminate any danger near her loved once. She wasn't powerful before and couldn't protect her father, but now, she won't let a single strand of hair of her loved once to be harmed.

"Done. And the dress you asked for is ready."

"Mm, that's for Sis Yang, send it to her in the morning of that day."

"Okay."

With a lot of determination, ZouMi set aside the things disturbing her and started working again.

Gu Huan was busy with the shooting, he lately took a lot of work in, trying himself to distract from the things happening within him. He hasn't been involved in anything lately, his entire day revolved just round ZouMi, and when he put a halt on it, he realized he has nothing to do at all. Elder Xu has traveled back to his hometown, and he didn't have any friends, so he indulged himself in a lot of work. He had a deal with ZouMi in the past, he didn't know will she leave it or act on it, so he didn't ask anything to Si Ban also.

Zrr! His phone ranged.

"Hello." A familiar voice vibrated in his ear.

"Why are you calling me? And whose number is this?"

"Son, you weren't picking my phone, I just called to ask you..."

"Ask me whether I'm alive or not? For your disappointment, I'm still alive, every well fine and happy, the moment before you called me."

"Son, why..."

"I'm busy, get straight to the point."

"Son, I'm your mother, why can't I call you for no reason?"

"Oh? You've a son? I never knew about that!" Gu Huan sarcastically remarked.

"Gu Huan! Is that the way you talk..." Before the person on the other side could complete her sentence, Gu Huan hanged. He banged his head on the dressing table, and sighed.

"Hey, you! Loser, didn't you say you quit? Why are you here working on the deals I brought?" As if the call wasn't enough to damp his mood, his annoying manager showed up. Gu Huan didn't react to her, neither raised his head.

"How dare you ignore me? You're leaching on to Sid Xiniay, and was behaving all mighty that day. Ungrateful fool!" She raised her voice, wanting all of them outside to hear her, as she has left the door open. Still, Gu Haun showed no sign of reacting.

"You!.."

"Can you shut your annoying mouth for a minute. Not everyone is a fool like you. This isn't the deal you brought, they personally looked for me, and has nothing to deal with you. Everyone knows about this." Gu Huan cold voice was heard, though he didn't raise his head. His manager face turned red after humiliation, the crew members outside the room, looked at her as if she was a fool.

"How dare you! I'm going to expose you, expel you out of the entertainment industry. You just wait and watch." She fumed in anger and left, even so, Gu Huan didn't lift his head. Little did she know that the tables were going to turn in favor of him.

One of the crew member came in, "Sir, the shoot is ready."

"Give me a minute." Gu Huan smiled at the boy politely and started setting is hair.
