While on one side everything soothed down in the deep darkness of the night, the other side of the city still held a mystery. In the dim-lit corridors of the villa, Jing Shaoqing was still impatiently waiting in front of the door. He has knocked a few times but as if there was some high-grade sound insulation inside, it simply felt like his voice wasn't reaching the man inside.
But also being a stubborn head, he wasn't the one to give up that easily. Especially when it came to standing tough in front of his brother. In front of him, he has always been crazy to prove himself right.
Walking back and forth, he still remained there waiting for the door to open, no matter how long he would have to wait.
"Brother, don't think I will let it slide off today. No matter where you go I will come after you to ask you about your attitude. You won't be able to escape." He declared his intention, stopping again to give a sharp knock at the door then seeing no reply coming again resumed his walk.
Time passed away and the night grew the darkest. Jing Shaoqing who has been walking back and forth all this while wasn't able to take it any longer. Giving a huffing breath out, he glared at the door before slumping down on the floor to take the seat.
Resting his head on the wall behind, he kept his eyes at the door but the day was too tiresome for him as well, so when the sleep struck him, he didn't even realize it. His eyes became heavy and soon it drooped close.
And he was only snapped back from his sleep when he heard the door of the room opening. As if he was a light sleeper, the moment he heard the soft creaking of the door, his eyes were ready to take a check at the person.
"You are sleeping here? Did the villa go smaller overnight? When I acquired it, it had enough rooms to accommodate people?" Jing Wei Jin said as he slightly raised his brows at his younger brother, before walking past him.
Jing Shaoqing's lips got pursed hearing him. Getting up at once, he followed after him. "I was waiting there to talk with you. Don't pretend like you don't know". He said, running after him.
When heard her brother, Jing Wei Jin smiled. Walking in steady steps, he suddenly paused to ask, "Do you think I am a person to pretend?" Then turning to look at him, he continued, deepening his playful curl of the lips, "If yes, then my dear little Shaoqing … you still need to work hard to know your brother as I have never been a pretentious person in reality. There is no exaggeration included."
"If that's so then help me know you better, brother." Jing Shaoqing said, stepping in front of his brother to stop him from running away. "Explain to me, why are you behaving like this? What has changed you so much? Because as far as I have remembered you, you have never been like this. Especially to Uncle Pan. Then why are you like this now?"
Jing Wei Jin looked at her brother. His expression paused for a bit but before it could get noticed, his demeanor turned back to his usual playfulness. "All this while you have been noticing me, that's why you never got a girl in your life. Boy, you have grown up. Go in search of your love instead". He said, chuckling and patting over his shoulders, before walking away, shrugging the initial topic.
But he knew well that it wouldn't be so easy to make his brother give up the topic. And he wasn't planning to make him give up. He was just searching for the replies that would help him escape. But not every question has an escaping window. Some are just formed with one honest exit door, where except for confronting the truth, nothing else is the option.
And the next question of Jing Shaoqing was exactly that.
Standing still in his position he asked while Jing Wei Jin walked past him, walking his way ahead. "Then brother, let's talk about love. I am sure you have already searched for your love and have also found her. But then why is she not here beside you? Why is she staying on someone else's side instead?" He asked, knowing well about the halted steps of his brother.
He turned to look at him before adding more with a confident smile. Like he has already guessed the right answer. "Don't say all your attitude has been turned like this because of her? Is it for her rejection that has made you go so insanely aloof to the people around you? Even if it is her then why are you letting us suffer instead of her?"
"…" Jing Wei Jin's expression changed, for once revealing the iciness in his eyes. There was no longer playfulness in his demeanor.
Jing Shaoqing saw it as well. But instead of hiding in silence, he chose to probe more. Bringing his brother to the edge wasn't an easy task and now that he was already there, he would be stupid to retreat back fearing his dangerous attitude.
"If she is to be blamed then why do you still have to treat her well? Why do you still let her off so easily with that Feng Shufen? Given our power, it wasn't too hard to keep her captive here. Then why do you still choose to come up all weak in front of Feng Shufen like we are suppressed in front of his power? We would have combated and won her on our side". He probed and at his instigation, Jing Wei Jin turned sharply to answer.
"She is not an object that we could win over. Is it that hard for people to understand?"
