Red Strings

Chapter 65

Change.

It's an inevitable thing, change, something that moves without us realizing it.

The outside world still talks about my relationship with An Yi Wei and several claims and theories have been made and passed into the internet.

The An family had indeed taken all the news reports and posts on the net but it is still widely spread in the population. It doesn't help the fact that An Yi Wei is a very famous tycoon and my family along with them is an affluent person.

Due to that, my family has accepted my decision to leaving this place and traveling. I just felt pain in my heart since I have become unfilial and cannot be with my parent's side.

"You don't have to worry about us, we've faced a lot of storms, on the other hand, need this" my father patted my back as I cried out for being unfilial.

"We understand your thoughts you- just take care of yourself okay? If you see a man you like just tell us!" My mother joked making me choke in laughter.

After that, I had already slept and prepared everything I needed. There's only one more day and I have already said my farewells to the people I love.

The Night grew longer and before I knew it, it was time. I still have eight hours before the plane takes off so I went to an art studio.

It's been a long time since I've painted, after everything that has happened, I haven't touched a brush yet.

Soon, I find myself getting out of the car and saw a familiar person.

It's been a while since I've seen him, he hasn't changed, still impressive, and have that outstanding aura that no man can copy.

I took a glance and brushed past him then went inside the elevator. He didn't leave and went inside as well.

Inside the elevator, the silence wasn't stifling as it was before, it was peaceful for me. I didn't look at him anymore and just treated him as a stranger.

Stranger.

I think I've been treating him as a stranger since I've regained my consciousness in this world. Just a character that is apparently this world's son, favoring him excessively.

The elevator opened and I went out just to hear the steps sounding from behind me. I didn't take notice of him and just went to the corner and see the art studio that I've contacted before.

I wanted to be alone, I didn't want to see my parents because I know I wouldn't be able to leave.

I just want to peacefully come to terms in this place since I've been performing here for quite a long time.

"Ms. Xiu, these are the brushes and the canvas section and..." I went to follow her and gain a tail on me.

Not long after, I found myself painting with the person that was unlikely to be found here. Even with his very prominent existence, I treated him like air and begun painting.

I drew a dream of mine, the golden sun, and the vast blue sky along with the emerald ocean. I painted myself and a person hugging me and added a few strokes.

As I paint, I felt peace washing over me and leaned back on my chair. It felt like I was being sucked in my dream, just by looking at the painting.

It's still a mystery who that man is and I feel like I'm never gonna find who he is.

The burning gaze from someone snapped me off my daydream and I turn my sight on him.

The look in his eyes caught me off guard and I find him staring at my painting with burning emotion.

...

On the other side...

The skin in her hands has already peeled off as blood seeped out of it but she remains unconscious of it.

She felt it.

The strings that chain her has been cut off.

She's losing her power, it's already on the brink of extinction, she would never attain another victory once more.

She would become like her.

No, she won't let that happen, she won't.

She has tasted the power and luck that comes along with her title, she cannot live without it, it's already in her system.

If things went down south, then she will drag everyone to hell, no one will live a life better than her.

And no one will leave this man-made world of hers, no one.
