Whispers of Destiny:A Serendipitous Journey

Chapter 8

"You know how thieves robbed your house"asked Li Xiaoyun with a nervous smile.
"Why would i forget"asked Li Wei with all seriousness gone.
"I......
"I found the thieves who robbed your parents apartment that night, I've been looking into it since then"said Xiaoyun quietly.
"Thanks, really. You didn't allow the police to close the case after they found no evidence of them being murdered by someone but how did you do it"asked Li Wei curiously and seriously.
"Aaah,ummm,you don't need to worry about them,i settled everything without any hiccup, it's a miracle you survived the murder,thank goodness you were on the secret balcony in your ex room and your parents made signal for you to go out when you came out of the balcony"said Xiaoyun with a small smile.
"If only I had not been very stubborn about going to visit the park,ma..may.. maybe(sobs)they ...will be al...ali...alive,i killed my.... parents,its....all my fault"said Li Wei before he was cut off by Xiaoyun.
"Shhh,hush little brother, it's none of your fault,do you believe in fateful events because I do. I believe that they were meant to go at that moment,i don't want you to ever call yourself a murderer in your entire life time, alright. Now please stop crying, we don't want Anna rejecting you"said Xiaoyun as she pulled him into a hug and joked to ease the slight tension.
"Oh, I'm way too cute to be rejected, seriously who could resist my angelic face,my captivating grey eyes and hmmm kissable pink lips and...."said Li Wei who was busy bragging about his undeveloped 12 year old facial features before he was cut off by Xiaoyun.
"I don't want to hear you brag about your... ummm...how do i put this in a nice way... undeveloped 12 year old facial features,you look like a kid, actually you're still a kid"said Li Xiaoyun thoughtfully.
"Aaah,jeez,way to ruin this 12 year old's dream"said a dramatic Li Wei.

********5minutes later********

Xiaoyun's phone suddenly rang,she excused herself in order to pick the call.
"Umm, alright go to sleep little Wei, I'll tell Liang Wei to look after you till you fall asleep"said Xiaoyun as she stepped outside, coincidentally that was the same time Liang Wei's discussion with the doctor that called for him earlier ended so he decided to wait for her as he rests on the door.

"Hello,is anything the problem"asked Xiaoyun with absolute seriousness. "Yes,we have a problem. The tracker placed on Zhang Singtan and Mian's men shows that that their sending men to your house "replied the caller.
"Hmmm,this is serious,get Meixiu out of my house now, permission to kill Singtan if he shows up granted"said Xiaoyun.
"Yes, ma'am, we're on it"said the caller before Xiaoyun put the call yo an end.
"Liang Wei, please check if Li Wei is asleep,some pest is trying to get himself killed after my lucid warning"said Xiaoyun.
"Yeah, he's asleep. Be careful please"persuaded Li Wei.
"Yeah thanks, please look after him,if he wakes up tell him i went to get something at home, don't step out of his room please. If anybody attacks him, I'll blame it entirely on you, seriously"said Li Xiaoyun with utmost seriousness.
"Alright,go. Be rest assured that nothing will happen to me and you know i do keep my promises,so you can leave freely. Just don't get yourself hurt."said Liang Wei as he entered the room.

********Xiaoyun's Condo unit********

At Xiaoyun's condo unit, Meixiu is watching TV before she's suddenly interrupted by some nen in black. She jumped up in a startled and frightened manner as she looks at all possible escape routes but they were all blocked by the men in black.
' Oh God,so this is my life. I'm just going to end up getting killed in my best friend's house while trying to escape getting killed by my own father. I haven't even said goodbye to Xiaoyun,i thought I'll live longer than this,have waist length gray hair and see my great grandchildren have grey hair but now i don't even have black waist length hair tal- ' reasoned Meixiu in her mind before she was cut off by one of the men in black.
"Miss Meixiu, we'll need you to cooperate with us,your friend Xiaoyun sent us,your father Zhang Singtan is trying to kill you"said one of the man with seriousness.
"...and you expect me to just follow you,how do i know you're not one of my father's men"asked Meixiu trying to play smart.
"... because me especially would have just chopped off your head from your body instead of wasting my precious time explaining simple details to you"said another one of the men.
"...and how do i also know whether my father has prepared a very torturous death for me,so you can't kill me"said Meixiu trying not to let the 'chopping of the head' statement get to her.
"How about you ask us some questions about yourself and if we get those questions right you follow us"said another one of the men.
"...and if i don't?"asked Meixiu confusedly. "...you die,both choices are risky Miss Meixiu but the ball is in your court"said another one of Xiaoyun's men.
"Okay, I'll ask you simple details about my life, there's no way in hell you'll know about the answers to those questions "said Meixiu with overconfidence.
"Don't be too sure of yourself Miss Meixiu but let the games begin"said another one of Xiaoyun's men.
"What did i study in college"asked Meixiu with the confidence that they wouldn't be able to answer the question correctly.
"You studied music in school where you met Xiaoyun in the park as you were both working on your midterm projects at that time.
"Who do i hate the most"asked Meixiu who was surprised that they could the answer the previous questions.
"Gavriel Chen and your father Zhang Singtan, time's going Miss Meixiu we need to go now your father's men are getting closer,but the decision is in your court"said another of Xiaoyun's men as he continues to glance at the slightly opened windows to see how long it will take Zhang Singtan's men to get to the condo unit.
"Why do i get to choose,i though i was giving no choice"said Meixiu with confusion.
"The ball is in your court,which means,the ball os in your court,so choose wisely, time's ticking Miss Meixiu"said another one of the men in black.
"I'll.......

Hey puppies,

Sooooo, what'd you guys think. Do you think she'll man up and follow them or she'll cower down in fear and risked getting killed by her father's men.
What will you guys do in that situation.
While you think about that, I'll just tip-toe out of this chapter with much love.
