"Li Xue, I am being serious." Jing Wei Jin said and Li Xue for once paused at his choice of words. From the day she met him, this was the first time she heard him calling her name with such seriousness. 

"Not every person in my field is as merciful as me. You have to start seeing them in the different lights. With the same difference with what you see me and your so-called husband."  He added more and, in his words, there was no fun as it used to be but grimness that was demanding solemnity in return. 

Li Xue didn't say anything "…". And when there came the silence like that the tone and the texture of the man's voice changed softly as if he could understand how alienated the woman would be feeling with his previous used depth and pitch of the voice. 

"My dear, don't take it lightly for I am being serious. And when I am serious, you should know that the issue couldn't be something simple." He said and heard Li Xue taking a deep breath on the other side. 

"Wei Jin, to be honest, I know that your seriousness doesn't come that often. But I also know if even the slightest thing concerns me or WeiWei, you can't hold back as well. And that explains it all. I know that I am surrounded by some issues now, but those are some general rivalries. It can't be as serious as you are making it look.  By pushing your concern in my head, don't scare me too much. I am not going to die so soon." 

She said and on the other line of the call, she heard him grunt with some suppressed irritation that he doesn't want to make obvious. 

"You just don't know the things, my dear." Jing Wei Jin tried every bit of it but Li Xue was there as if she simply doesn't want to take it. Not for she doesn't believe him or was too over casual, but for she believes him enough to understand how serious the thing could be. And at the moment when there are already so many things to look after, she doesn't want to take one more stress in her head to restrain herself within the boundaries.

Chuckling softly over the call, Li Xue said, "Don't know the things? Then are you willing to let me know them? Are you willing to let me see what disaster is waiting for me?" She asked, already knowing his answer to this one question. He could let the world suffer in pain but allow her to visualize it. 

"Fine, you don't have to know it. Sighing under his breath, Jing Wei Jing said. "Just allow my few men to be around you in the recent days. And the rest would be handled." He added that Li Xue didn't take any time before rejecting his request. 

"That won't be needed. I already have a batch of people looking after me in shadows and I believe them." 

"Those can't be efficient enough to protect you. For once, depend on me than your husband. I am more worthy of it and my men are more trained than his." He said and Li Xue simply rolled her eyes at him. 

"Really? But as far as I remember I have dealt with almost twenty of them alone. Do you really think I would need their protection and not the other way round?" She said and she knew the man must be all speechless on the other side of the call. 

"Fine. I won't bother with comparisons but a few extra people in your safety won't cause any extra trouble. Allow them to serve you, Your Highness!" Jin Wei Jin suggested but it also didn't come fruitful as the next moment came a warning. 

"Don't you dare, my friend? Although I don't doubt your capabilities, I still believe in my husband's arrangements more. So, you don't have to take the bother." She said and the person on the call didn't respond a word. 

After a while of silence like that, Li Xue inhaled a soft breath before saying with all seriousness she could bring out. "Wei Jin, don't worry. I would be safe. I know I am the only friend you have in your lonely life. I would not let you lose me that easily." She said and her voice held a warmth that instantly warmed the stressed heart of the man. 

"Great enough! You better fulfill the promise as I really don't want to lose the only woman for whom I can buy expensive gifts to get rejected every time." He said and Li Xue rolled her eyes at his choice of words. But before she could say more, the beep of disconnection rendered her all wordless. 

Shaking her head, she pulled the phone to look at the phone screen that has returned back to its lock wallpaper. But just when she was about to keep the phone back at the counter, a voice from a distance stiffened her. 

"Are you in some sort of danger? Who is after you?" 

Li Xue looked up only to find Shin You Jun standing with his brows scrunched together at her. His eyes all narrowed as if he was already there ready to catch her lies. 

"Ah, you are already up. Good morning. I have already prepared breakfast. Let's have it together." She said before gesturing for him to put some eyes on the dishes she prepared for everyone. But the boy didn't look at anyone but her. "Haha … these were simple and also something you people liked so I prepared them. Wait for a while, I will go and get WeiWei first."  She said and was ready to escape but before she could even try, the boy came in front to ask more firmly. 

"I asked you something. Are you in some sort of danger? Why are you in need of protection all suddenly? And who is exactly the one after you?" He asked and his concern was clearly visible in his eyes. 

Li Xue didn't know how to answer him, so chuckling softly, she asked, "Are you concerned for me? I thought you were more upset to not care for me anymore."
