96 I dont see her as a woman (1/2)

[Why are you running away?]

She's scared of facing him. She's embarrassed because of the ugly feelings that she had when she saw him watching that girl with a ghost of a smile. She's sure that he knows. How will she face him again? Isn't it better to jump to her death?

[No!!! You can't kill yourself. You have to think of me. You die, I die and Fu Sheng also dies. I hate this the most.]

She also hates it. Why did she feel jealous? Why did she hide when he looked in her direction? Why did she peek on them in the first place? She wants to disappear. This is worse than dying.

On the verge of tears, she reaches the end of wherever she's been going. She's lost again. She looks back when she hears the sound of someone approaching. She can tell who it is. She has to hide. She can't face him in this state. She will come out after he forgets about it. Where should she hide? She looks around and finds a large trunk. She gets inside it.

[You are embarrassing! He's a vampire. He can smell you out.]

[Xiao Chun Dan, do something. I don't want to be found.]

[There's nothing that I can do. You should have learned a few spells for situations like this.]

Fu Sheng stares at the trunk. He can her mumblings. Who is she talking to? There's no one else here other than him and her. Xian Chun Dan?

Why is she hiding from him now? What did he do this time? Her strong anxiety is affecting him. He wonders if he should open the trunk or not. He's curious. Was she really jealous earlier?

What's the point if she was? It's not like she will ever admit it. He turns away from the trunk. Why did he run after her? Didn't he say that he would never ever touch her if she pushed him away? Coming after her is going back on his word. The vampire king never goes back on his word. He won't give in to his feelings again.

\”I am scared. I don't want him to know, Xiao Chun Dan.\”

He glances at the trunk again. He lowers his presence to nothing. He can't read this woman's mind. Her emotions are always awkward. She doesn't trust her feelings either. What should he do?

\”I know... I don't know...\”

Does she hear voices by any chance? His eyes turn red. He tries to sense another presence. If no one else is there, then the only possibility is her head. He has been suspicious since he entered her mind when she was sinking into the darkness yesterday. He has felt the traces of a foreign presence.

[You care about him, don't you?] Xiao Chun Dan asks her with a worried tone. [Elder Sister, have you started to love him too?]

Xiao Chun Dan doesn't push her anymore. His host is crying.

\”It was better if I died that day.\”
