Chapter 8 - Chapter 8

"Grandma, why are you back alone? Where is Ruo Hua?" Gao Wei asked as his grandmother was escorted back by the butler without Ruo Hua.

"She had to check something out. She'll be right back. Don't act like you can't live without her a minute on your life." She stated sitting at the dinning table before the maids served the dishes.

"Gao Wei, make sure nothing happens to Ruo Hua. I like her very much." Xu Shan stated making him smile before taking her hand. Lin Feng turned to Wei Tian who signaled her to calm down.

Meanwhile, Ruo Hua stood in front of Ruo Lin's portrait in the room getting teary eyed.

"I wish I could speak to you sister. I didn't mean for anything to happen between I and Gao Wei. I was out of place and I know__"

"You're still so reckless and silly as before. What took you so long in seeking me out?" A voice asked making her turn as her tears fell down upon seeing Ruo Lin.

"How is this possible?" She murmured reaching for her hand as it passed right through like she was just an illusion of light.

"Mother always said our souls would keep wandering in the real world until those holding on to us let go. Since you and I are from mother's tribe, my soul keeps wandering because of you. And what makes you think I'm mad because you're married to Gao Wei?" She asked making Ruo Hua break down even more.

"I didn't mean to. You died instead of me and now life is impossibletolive without you. Mother was right, this job was gonna make us lose the people we love the most." She sobbed making Ruo Lin smile as she observed her keenly.

"How I wish I could hug you and tell you I'm not mad at you. In fact when I left, I was thinking how Gao Wei was going to be fine all alone by himself. To be honest I think you two are good together. You make a perfect couple than he and I ever were. I wish you live a happy life with Gao Wei sister, just let yourself be carried away for once. It's not that bad." Ruo Lin finished turning to gold dust.

Ruo Hua got up wiping the tears from her eyes. She touched the frame when a baby toy fell down.

"A baby toy__ Ruo Lin was pregnant?" She questioned herself squeezing the toy in her hand as she looked at Ruo Lin's picture.

"This just got even more personal." She murmured putting the toy away before going back down.

"Ruo Hua, you're finally back. Sit next to Gao Wei." The old lady suggested making Ruo Hua glare at Wei Tian before sitting.

Noticing the killing intent in her eyes, Wei Tian got even more nervous suspecting something was wrong. She turned to Lin Feng nodding her head as a signal before taking in a deep breath.

"Ruo Hua, your family, that day we didn't go with you so only Gao Wei met them. What are they like? What do they do?" She asked making Ruo Hua smile turning to Wei Tian.

"Now that the streets of Hong Kong has gotten dangerous again, it's a bad time for you to know my family but I'll gladly tell you." She stated holding on tightly to her fork.

"Ruo Hua please__" She got up banging her hands on the table making everyone flinch.

"Child, what's going on?" Xu Shan asked but Ruo Hua kept starring at Wei Tian.

"You know, the Gao family should have had an heir by now. The child would have been five years by now, but enemies got the child and my sister Ruo Lin killed. You might know her as Song Luo, but she's actually my twin sister, daughter of the Ruo family in Hong Kong. And I mean the Ruo family that runs the three winged dragon gang." She finished leaving everyone in shock as she stood behind Wei Tian putting her hand on her shoulders.

Lin Feng didn't hesitate to take out the divorce papers she had with her the entire time throwing it on the table.

"Sign them. My Gao family doesn't want anything to do with criminals like your family." She stated making Gao Wei get up.

"Mother, what is this?" Gao Wei asked but his father held his hand.

"Your mother's decision this time is right. The streets have become more dangerous all because of her family." Gao Yuan stated making Ruo Hua chuckle holding on firmly to Wei Tian's shoulders.

"My family? What do you know about what my family has been through? We don't just go around killing people, we kill our enemies and my family has enmity with someone in your family, isn't that right Wei Tian?" She asked making Xu Shan get up banging her stick on the floor.

"That's enough! You will not disrespect my presence. Lin Feng, you have no right to decide whether Ruo Hua and Gao Wei will divorce." Xu Shan stated making Lin Feng turn to her baffled.

"Grandma you don't have to worry about my marriage. Gao Wei can't forget my sister and I respect that, I will give him a divorce when I've finished with my work__"

"Ruo Hua listen to__" She raised her hand interrupting him as a maid rushed in.

"Sir, the police are here." She stated as a man hurried in with his subordinate.

"Ruo Hua, how have you been?" He asked with a smile making her smile as well. Ruo Hua finally let go off Wei Tian making her drop her cutlery.

"Inspector Xiao, it's been a while, five years to be precise." Ruo Hua stated turning to Lin Feng then back to the inspector.

"You're taking on my case again? You couldn't find anything without me surrendering willingly. Why have you come here now?" She asked getting closer which made the inspector's subordinate take out his gun but he stopped him in the process before showing her some pictures on his phone.

"A few gangs came marching into the station recently claiming the three winged dragon beat them up taking all their possessions. Ruo Hua, surrender to the police." He advised but Ruo Hua took her phone excusing herself. She made a call talking for some time before coming back.

"I've surrendered the drugs and smuggled goods to you. You'll receive it before morning. The money, belongs to my family, it has nothing to do with you. You should leave inspector, you have evidence to inspect. I won't see you out." She suggested making him turn to his partner before they left.

"The police didn't get you today, but we can't have a criminal living in our house." Lin Feng stated making Ruo Hua turn to the entire family.

"Ruo Hua, you don't have to leave and she has no say in your staying and leaving." Xu Shan stated making Ruo Hua walk over to her.

"You're right. But unfortunately I can't stay here any longer. I have things to deal with. But I will return. And when I return, the murderer of my sister will be going to hell with me. See you around, Wei Tian." She finished before walking out as Gao Wei went after her.

"What did she mean by that? Song Luo or Ruo Lin, whoever she was, is the sister of this devil, and she's here to seek vengeance for her dead sister. Why did she address you everytime she spoke? Come with me." Lin Feng ordered pulling Wei Tian away.

Meanwhile, Gao Wei caught up to Ruo Hua pulling her back making Lee Jung Ki grab his arm but Ruo Hua dismissed him.

"Wait in the car. I will handle this." She ordered making Lee Jung Ki let go before getting in the car.

"Where are you going? You don't have to do this. Don't go, it's dangerous__"

"I've lived in this dangerous streets my entire life. And I won't stop until I've killed everyone involved in my sister's death. For goodness sake your child and my sister died that day." She stated making Gao Wei let go looking at her stunned.

"I saw the toy behind the picture frame. You think after knowing my sister was pregnant I will stop? Don't worry. I won't come back into your life again. Goodbye Gao Wei." She finished getting in the car making sure not to show him the tears in her eyes.

"Should we go Miss Ruo?" Lee Jung Ki asked her as she cleaned her tears tying her hair up.

"Let's go. Tell our people to find Ou Kaige before tomorrow. His time is up." She ordered as Lee Jung Ki started the car leaving the mansion right away. Wei Tian came out of nowhere preventing Gao Wei from running after the car.

"What are you doing? You want to go after her? Gao Wei your mother has already arranged for our marriage you just have to sign the divorce papers." She stated making him throw her off.

"Never in this life or the next will I ever be with you. Get that into your head." He concluded before going back into the house leaving Wei Tian out there breathing heavily.

"I got Ruo Hua out of this house with soo much effort and the next step is killing her. You will have to forget her just like you forgot her sister." She murmured to herself making a call before inside.
