Yue Ling's white bmw x5m stops in front of a tall black metal gate.

A bulky man in military uniform steps out of the guard booth with a QBZ-95 in his hands. He is a man with good looks in his early thirties, but his aura and the three lines between his brows gave him an intimidating look.

Ting looked out the window and he felt himself shrinking into the passenger seat.

Why are they at another military base?

Suddenly, realization dawn on him and he looks at the beautiful supermodel in the driver seat.

Is Han Yue Ling planning to enlist him in the army?

Thinking of it, he laughs in self mockery inside. He is twenty years old. No parents or home. Maybe joining the military is the best choice for him. Lowering his head, he stare down at the cast on his leg and stayed quiet.

"Good morning young— Miss Han."

The bulky soldier smiles at Yue Ling, he wanted to address her as 'young Miss', but she had secretly signaled him not to. He looked Yue Ling then to Ting in the passenger seat.

General Ji had informed him in advance about Ting. Getting a small glimpse of the crutches and cast, the soldier felt pain for the kid. Sighing, he turns to go inside the booth and open the gate.

Yue Ling smiles at the soldier before driving forward. She didn't say a word but continue to drive.

From the side, Ting stare out the window again with curious eyes. When they left the military hospital, they had drove through Imperial and then onto a long road with vast fields on each side.

Now....

The road in front of him is replaced with rows of yet to blood cherry blossom trees....

Everything looked like a fairy tale come to life from a children's book.

Yue Ling glance at Ting and she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Shaking her head, she continue to drive until they pulled up to the beautiful Spanish mansion.

"This is our last stop."

Parking her car, she unbuckle her seat belt and got out of the car. Walking over to Ting's side, she opens the door for him.

Ting looks at Yue Ling and he pout his lip. How he hated his life right now. He is an orphan with a broken leg and he's having his favorite idol help assist him....

Looking at the fair slender hand in front of him, he looks away and grab his crutches. Slowly, he gets out of the car by himself.

He doesn't want to trouble Yue Ling anymore than he already is doing.

Seeing this, Yue Ling shook her head. Reaching her arms out, she still helps him anyways. She understands Ting's feeling, but.... looking up at the Spanish mansion, she smiles faintly.

This is all she can do for him....


"Thank you, but I can walk on my own now."

Ting slightly moves from Yue Ling's help. If he can't do this on his own then there's no way he can go on with life. His broken leg is nothing in comparison to losing his parents.

Yue Ling smiles at Ting and moves her hands at the boy's words. The both of them walks towards the door.

To Ting's surprise, there were a set of stairs in the front but at the side was a connecting ramp. This ramp looked brand new and didn't look like it belonged there. His mind couldn't help but wonder if their was a reason for it. Or.....

He turn to look at Yue Ling, but quickly shook the thought away. There's no possible way the ramp was put there for him.

Lifting his head, his expression turned curious. For a military recruitment center, this place sure is big and pretty.

As they reach the door, it was suddenly open. An old man comes to view as he smiles at the two individuals.

"Good afternoon, young Miss."

Yue Ling smiles back, "Good afternoon, Housekeeper Hu."

Ting was dumbfounded at what he was seeing and hearing. His looked back and forth from Yue Ling and the old man.

Young Miss?

This is the highly well known Han Yue Ling's house? Why is she living in Jade Condos?

Isn't this a military recruiting center?

While Ting was in the middle of his thoughts, another old voice spoke as the person's head stuck out from behind Housekeeper Hu.

"Old Hu, who is it?"

Seeing who it is, Ting's eyes widen and he almost dropped the crutches in his hands.

Never in his entire life would he dream of meeting this man. Lu Tian is his role model, but this man is his legendary hero! Even if the man has aged, he is still a legend throughout China.

Old man Ji looks at dumbfounded boy next to his granddaughter. His expression was indifferent but when he looked at Yue Ling, his entire being softened, however...

"You brat, you're finally here."

Yue Ling smiles and ignores her grandfather's tone of voice, "Mm. It's good to see you too, Yeye."

She turn to look at Ting and her smile widens, "Come, lets go inside."

Housekeeper Hu stepped to the side to let Yue Ling and Ting enter. As he watch Ting support himself with the two crutches, his heart ached for the boy.

Life is really too unfair to those who do good in the world.

"Jie!"

A voice sounds from upstairs causing Yue Ling and Ting to look in the direction of the voice.

Yue Ling smiles when she sees the boy, while Ting stood dumbfounded again.

Wasn't he still in the hospital? Yue Ling said his condition was unstable? How is he here?

Jingxu runs as fast as he could down the stairs. He ignores the pain in his arm and held an excited smile on his face. Running straight to his older sister, he also ignores the people around and hugs her. His Jie was here and that was all that matters to him.

"Jingxu."

Lifting both her arms, Yue Ling hugs her younger brother, before pulling away. She looks down at the cast wrapped around his right arm and she frowns.

"When were you discharged? Aren't you still recovering?"

"Heh heh... I didn't want to stay in the hospital anymore. It's too boring there, so I made grandpa discharge me."

Jingxu spoke as his left hand scratch the back of his head. He moves his eyes to Ting and nod his head in a polite greeting.

"Ji Jingxu? Han Yue Ling?"

Ting muttered as he tried to connect the dots. Jingxu is the grandson of General Ji, but how is Yue Ling related to them? She is a Han, right?

Knowing what Ting is thinking, Jingxu smiles with a sigh.

"Remember when I told you my Jie will save us? Well, my Jie is Han Yue Ling."

"..."

Ting's eyes widen in surprise and he looks at his idol. Han Yue Ling is the granddaughter of General Ji? What kind of shocking news is this? Then again, no one really knows anything about Han Yue Ling, except that she is a model...

Realizing something, his heart tightened and his expression turned into pain.

So.... if Jingxu was never dragged in the mess, would he have died? Would he have died without anyone knowing?

Old man Ji walked up to Ting. His expression cold and intimidating like the general he is, but the moment he stopped in front of the boy... he lift his old hand and pat the boy's head.

Feeling the hand on his head, Ting looks up at the old man. His eyes tremble as he could feel warmth and care coming from the old man.

"Young man, you just lost your parents and I know you're still mourning, but... I want you to know that my Ji Mansion opens it's doors and welcomes you."
