Because I simply love you

After the media incident, Nana's whole neighborhood would hover around her like flies to fork out any favor from her.

That day, Chen Liling too apologized for suddenly announcing their engagement without telling her beforehand. Nana hesitated at first, but then she thought along the same lines as Mother Chen. They had enough time to spend time with each other and get a little closer. So, she agreed. She felt she has finally moved on.

Nana sighed. "Alright, you take care of Natsukashi here. I will be back from the supermarket."

They both nodded.

She quickly went to the supermarket and brought all the necessities when right outside, somebody called her.

"Nana?"

She turned to see Suyin behind her.

"Miss Tang?"

"Yes. I was just passing by and I saw you. Actually, I…I wanted to properly apologize to you. My mistake caused you so much pain. The media…"

"Miss Tang. Let's just forget about it, okay? We cannot change what happened. We can only move on. So…anyways, I have to go back.", she smiled. She did not want to dwell on it anymore.

"Nana, wait! As a serious apology, I would like to make up for it. I know nothing can compensate it but can we just spend some time together? There is this new parlor inaugurated and you can get a nice makeover. I will pay for it. I know it sounds silly but I just want to do anything that can help us bond as friends. Please?"

"Um…It's really alright. You don't need to do anything."

"Please.", she held her hand, "or else I will think that you still haven't forgiven me."

Actually, she did not. When she got to know that Suyin was Jianyu's ex-girlfriend, it came as a shock to her, but she guessed that maybe she leaked the news on purpose. Previously too, she could sense hostility from her, which then she realized was actually jealousy.

Nana was not stupid.

If she could go to such lengths… and now she was not comfortable with Suyin about her idea.

"O-okay. But I cannot stay for a long time."

"I promise! It won't take much time."

Just then another voice came, "Suyin? Nana?"

They both turned and were shocked.

Huian?

---

Back in the morning.

When Huian read the letter, she snapped. She threw the coffee mug on the floor spilling all it's contents. She then started throwing all other things.

Hearing the commotion, Mother Liu and Grandma Liu quickly came and knocked.

"Huian? Huian? Are you okay? We heard some breaking noises coming from here.", she asked in concern.

"Yes, dear. Are you hurt?", Grandma Liu asked.

Initially, she was trembling and shaking. She was mad with anger. She wanted to vent out her rage but she couldn't do it here. Then she heard their voices and forcibly calmed herself down.

"Y-yes. No big deal. I just tripped."

"Oh..okay. Be careful."

After a few minutes, she opened the door all freshened up.

"Grandma. Mom. I'm fine. Sorry, I made you worry."

"Silly, of course, we care for you.", Mother Liu patted her head. She thought before saying, "Huian, why don't you go shopping today? You seem stressed nowadays. If you go outside for some fresh air, it will relax you a lot."

Grandma Liu slightly stiffened. "Yes, yes. You should. It will calm you down.", she looked at her and nodded.

Huian also nodded. I really need a break or I will go all mental with all these threats.

She went to a shopping complex when she saw Suyin and Nana together. It was a long time since she talked to Suyin, so she called them out.

---

Present.

Nana was again shocked. The two women who really didn't like her are here together.

"Suyin! Such a long time! What are you doing here?", Huian asked.

Suyin said, "I was just nearby. I saw Nana so I stopped by.", she smiled.

"Me too. I'm out shopping. I saw you and I was surprised.", she saw Nana and smiled forcibly, "Nana."

Nana nodded.

"Hey. Since we are here, why don't we grab a bite?"

Suyin stiffened. "Actually, some other time. Nana and I are going to a parlor."

Huian raised her eyebrows. Since when did they start hanging out? Does Suyin even like Nana?

"That's great. Can I also come? We'll spend some girl time together."

Huian didn't mind as long as she was getting a break from those letters.

"No!", Suyin exclaimed.

They both were startled.

"I-I mean I have only enough passes for Nana and me.", she smiled.a

"Oh c'mon. I will pay for myself. No big deal.", Huian said.

Damn it! I followed Nana all the way so I can trick her to come with me but Huian too? I will just have to take her with us. She should not spoil my plans. I will have to message Sun Dong not to do anything with Huian either.

"O-okay."

"Great! Then let's go."

"Let's go in my car. The driver knows the address."

"Okay."

Inside the car, Suyin quickly messaged Sun Dong.

---

At the place where Sun Dong and his gang waited, he received a message.

Boss – My one other friend is also coming with us. I couldn't stop her. You make sure to only attack Nana. Make it look like you could only attack her and leave my friend and me out of it.

He said to his men, "I don't care about the other woman. I just want that b*tch, Nana. I will teach her a good lesson for messing with me that night. Just because of her I lost my face in front of everyone. Our boss is generous enough to give us this chance to have our way with her.", he smirked disgustingly with lust in his eyes. "As she said, don't touch her or her friend. Not only she is paying a hefty sum but will also take care of the police case for us."
