As promised, they take a turn to accompany Ha Eun. Ren didn't know about Xue Mei who already know Ha Eun's condition.

On her rest day, she will accompany Ha Eun and help her to finish her artwork. She also saw how bad Ha Eun's condition can be after the treatment. She sometimes curling up the body because of the pain and she sweats a lot while trying to endure the pain.

When seeing her like that, she feels like crying. How can she endure the pain? Even just looking at her makes her heart race and wrenching in pain.

"How long did you need this med?" Xue Mei ask. Today is her turn to accompany her at the hospital.

"Dr. Harlina said that I need to continue this for two or three more days and after that, I can have a month without any inserted med. Hooray!" She smiles happily to Xue Mei.

Smiling back at her, she also feels a bit relieve. At least, Ha Eun can rest a bit and had a normal day like other girls.

"Did you already finish your drawing?" Ha Eun asks.

"Just a little part that I need to finish it. Other than that, I guess..yeah."

"Good then. Thank you for helping me doing my project. If you want, I can insert your name into my credit."

"No no no...I already use my name under Ren." She shakes her head.

"Okay. Then I hope we win this competition."

"Yeah. I heard that the first and the second place of this winter festival will get a prize to go to play some snow in Vail, Colorado. Well, even though they only give you a ticket to went there and not including the flight, still, it's awesome."

"You are looking forward to it, huh?" Ha Eun could guess from her reaction.

"Hehe.."

"If a flight that you worried, you shouldn't have to bother. Your boyfriend had his own personal jet. Just make sure you have a valid passport."

"Ah...I don't really want to trouble him just because I want to go to see a mountain full of snow."

"By the way, do you know how to skiing?" Ha Eun tilts her head a little.

"Erm..no. But I really want to learn it." She said with excitement.

"I can teach you if you want." Ha Eun offers her, her help.

"Really? You know how?" Xue Mei looks at her with excitement.

"Silly girl. Of course, I know." She rolled her eyes before she laughs softly.

"Ah! Thank you." She hugs her neck.



In the blink of eyes, December comes fast. Winter festival will be holding a week early before Christmas and they will have a semester break until mid of January.

Spring festival will be on the April and after that, Ren Zhi, Ha Eun, Xui Li and all third-year senior will be graduating during the Spring break. That also means, she needs to win this competition and complete her assignment and document she needs to get a full scholarship and transfer letter to another university after the Spring break.

Ren Zhi was checking the details for the last time before they put it at the exhibition hall tomorrow, while Xue Mei was busy arranging the pamphlets and check on the report which she needs to handed to her dean tomorrow.

"Everything's done?" He asks Xue Mei who still busy at the desk in his workshop.

"Yeah. You go ahead, I just need to fold these pamphlets for a lil bit." She said. Their relationship is now more looks like a friend than a lover. They barely had time to see each other or text each other. They only contact each other for an important thing and they never go on a date for the past months.

"Are you sure? It's already dusk." He said and pick up his bag.

"Mm..just close the door when you're out."

"Okay then." He went to her and kiss her cheek. "I love you."

"Yeah, me too." She replies to him and still continues her work.

A few hours later, she stretching up and clean the table. All the pamphlets, she put it into a box and her report she put it into her bag.

Took a workshop keys, she went to the light switch after that. She turns off the light and closes the door before she locks it.

Looking at her watch, it is now already 9 PM. She was sure, Risa is now practicing her vocal. She gonna presenting foreign language song from Mexico and feat with another student from her department.

She walks to her dorm and thinking of getting some dinner before she went back, take a turn at the junction of the walkway, she went to the Cafe at Musical department.

They had a night cafe which serves delicious food there at night until 11 PM. That because most of Music department student always practicing until late at night. Dancing, singing, and all that stuff will surely make them hungry after that. So to open the cafe until night time is quite a convenience.

She enters the cafe and she could smell various delicious food there. Her stomach makes a grumbling sound after that.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" Xui Li pats on her shoulder from behind.

Turning around, she smiles at him. "Hey, you still on campus?"

"Yeah. Jamming and practicing. What about you?" He asks and both of them went to the counter.

"I just finish folding my pamphlets." She looks at the menu board behind the counter.

"Your order, Miss?" A young man from the counter asks when it is their turn.

"I'll have Chicken Tandoori and ice mocha, please." She smiles at the man in the counter.

"Okay, and you Sir?"

"I'll have Chicken pasta and a cup of hot honey lemon."

"Okay, the total is 29 dollar."

"Eh, we're not.."

Xui Li touch Xue Mei's shoulder and says "It's on me."

"But.." Xue Mei didn't say anything when Xui Li already pay for the food.

"I'll pay later, okay?"

Xui Li just smile and wait for their food. Once they got their tray, they went to the table at the corner of the cafe.

"So, where is Ren?" Xui Li start.

"He already returns to the dorm." She scoops her dinner and eats it.

"I see. So have you heard about the prize, this time?"

"Uhm, Vail. I really want to go there." Xue Mei smile like a little girl wanting a lollipop.

"You got a high chance though. If you compete with your senior Athena..ermm..maybe you still manage to get the number two." He chuckles a bit before he eats his pasta.

"Yup. That's true...I can't defeat her. Lucky she already graduates and I wonder what she's doing right now, did she get a job or did she further her studies.."

"I tell you what." He took out his phone and search on something before he passes it to Xue Mei.

"What is this?" She asks and took his phone.

"Look at it."

Xue Mei squinted her eyes to the screen and after a while, she gasps a bit. "Is she..our senior?"

Xui Li nodded his head. "How do you recognize her work?"

"She has a unique symbol, I notice this since first I saw her artwork. Wow, if I ever get rich in the future, I gonna buy her art."

Smiling at her, he said "Then, you wanna be an art collector in the future? Is that is what you planned?"

"Huh…I never thought that..but, why not? Open up my own gallery and still doing my artwork. Well…that is if I turn into a rich lady."

"You will. Someday."
