For a few seconds, Su Xi can feel the goosebumps on her hand. His husky voice was clear and she felt a little bit nervous but at the same time, she knew that this was not right. 

They are too close to each other and this isn't what she wants. This way her friendship will be ruined very badly.

Chen Juan took another step forward, towards her while Su Xi unconsciously stepped back. Her face was red due to the drinks, and in a similar manner, Chen Juan's intense gaze was making her feel uncomfortable. Her heart was thrumming inside her body, and she had no idea what was happening to her.

'Why the hell am I reacting in such a way?' She can't help but keep him reminded loose. Nothing Was working, but under the moonlight, Su Xi finally opened her mouth to reply to him.

"I think I should go back no. It's already late and.. My family will be waiting for me." 

"Are you sure that you can drive in the state?'' At that point, Chen Juan stopped in his track, understanding whatever he was doing was absolutely wrong. He can't help but abuse himself in his mind.

Su Xi saw that he had stepped back a little from her, increasing the distance between them, and somehow, she felt relieved. 'At least he understood that what was happening was wrong' but she has no idea that Chen Juan was thinking something else.

"Yeah. I will drive. Don't worry, I'm not that drunk." She chuckled at her own words, obviously, she was drained but somehow, this was the only option to stay away from him.

If she stays there any longer, Chen Juan might get wrong hints from her side which are the last things he wants at this time.

Su Xi doesn't wish to let the only friend she made and this will only make her feel more guilty. In The end, why can't she understand that so many men fell for her? But somehow, there was no sense of this question because even those people who fell there had no reply to this.

Su Xi nodded her head and passed him a light smile, and walked back to the car, while Chen Juan stared at her back. He felt the twitch in his heart, maybe because he knew that she stopped him from doing anything wrong because she has no feelings for me.

'If I had moved and did something stupid, maybe it has actually ruined and disturbed out the relationship and I would have disclosed the feelings.' Laughing at his own action, he can't help wonder why he finds this lady too attentive? 

For so long, he has closed his heart from the entry for anyone else. But suddenly, he can feel that he was being once again. The sonic face and hear of his was now yearning to live once again tend to fall in love with someone.

'But I think, it is never possible between us, SU XI. you made it very clear today.' 

..

Su Xi drove the car back to her home to find Gu Yan waiting outside her house's gate. He was wearing informal clothes which made her think that he had come directly from his home. 

Somewhere, this made her frown as well because Su Xi hadn't expected him to appear out of anywhere late in the hour. 

Stepping Out of her car, Su Xi looked at him with her flushed face," What are you down here at this time? Don't you want to sleep?" 

But at first, he didn't reply to her. His eyes were just glued to her face, looking at the sight's endorser's face and he can smell the alcohol from her as well.

'She might have drunk there.' although, he had said that he trusts her but maybe, his possessiveness that he can't help but come to her home once, to see whether she is back or not. 

"You weren't picking up your call. As I thought of coming here once. I'm sorry if I disturbed you in any manner.`` 

"No problems. My phone... Umm.. I think it's the battery is dead." Su Xi forgot about her phone and then understood that she might have actually left the it inside the car only when she had gone to Chen Juan's house. But after seeing her back at home, Su XI invited him inside to meet others inside. 

It was rare to see him come to her home like this and this was somewhat surprising for her as well.

She knew that Ye Shing and Ye Shan might be asleep until this time, but somehow, she wanted them to meet their father. After all, this isn't possible for him to come to their home every day.

He nodded her head and came inside her home, to find the dim lights inside. 

"Where is everyone else?"

"Are you getting the time already? Do I need to remind you that people sleep at this time? They all might be asleep. But do you want me to call Ye Shing now? Well you know he loves doing many things on his laptop and I bet he is awake even at this hour! He always is!" Gu Yan felt conflicted.

Somewhere, he wished to see his son, but many things happened that between them. The time they fought and he called him selfish, he still remembers that he had called him a selfish dad.

But till now, many things have changed. Has his son also changed? He really wishes that Ye Shing's nature towards him changes because he doesn't wish to have any relationship with his children. Each one of them is of utmost importance and holds a special place in his heart.

Before Su Xi could have gone upstairs so-called Ye Shing down, she heard Gu Yan's hesitant voice from behind, "Su Xi..I have something to ask you."

"Go ahead. Ask me." she failed to notice his fearful expressions and took it very lightly.

"Will Ye Shing be happy to see? You must remember the last time we all had a fight when I showed you the DNA reports. And also, when I had taken Ye Nian back to my home."

Su Xi smiled and replied to him in a calm voice, "It not like at. I agree that the circumstances of the day were far different from today. Anything wet hidden at that time and all that are bygones. He is neutral with you and as all of us, he wants to have his family back. He swears to see his parents together and trust me, he has no personal grudge towards you." 

Gu Yan doesn't know how much it was true but hearing Su Xi's confident words, he felt that there is no harm in talking to his son once. May he give up on the unhappy relation right?

At last, Su Xi called Ye Shining down and the father-s so talked happily, and this scene made Su XI's heart feel warm. as she knew that for a long period, Gu Yan was trying to sneak things out with Ye Shing, and finally, they had a warmful conversation.

After a few more minutes, Su Xi and Gu Yan decided to take a walk in her garden. He said she had some personal task to share with her and Su Xi agreed on his words.

They were lightly taking a walk in the garden, where the lights were lighted and water was falling from waterfalls.

The scene is beautiful and Gu Yan can't help but stare at Su Xi's flushed face, making him blush at the same time.

"Su Xi, you said that you went to Chen Juan's home, am I right?" Gu Yan broke the silence between the theme and this question surprised her.

"Yeah. I went to this home. Recently only, he got a promotion and decided to join his promotional part which was thrown by his close friend.s"

"Oh. so, how did it go?" He gently needed to know about the night today. Although he might feel a little bit jealous as well he can't help but ask her for further information.

Su Xi took it very lightly and answered in a soft tone, "Oh, it was really good! You know, we all enjoyed it too much and for the very first time, I met some people who actually treated me as Su Xi, not as the heir of the Su family." from her excited tone, he can guess that he had a great time there.

"Oh. Su Xi, can I ask you another question if you don't mind what i will ask it?" 

"Yeah sure, go on. I'm listening." 

Gu Yan cleared his throat and asked her directly"I know that you don't have feelings for that friend. But are you sure that your friend, Chen Juan, doesn't feel anything for you as well?"

...
