"Are you thirsty," Scarlett asked after taking a sip of her lemonade. She was holding it out to Yanjun as the group was outside in the sun waiting for some of the boys to come back from a ride.

She sat on a small brick wall that had a bunch of flowers behind it and a couple of other plants. She had to jump up to sit there while Xukun and Ziyi easily got up with no problem.

"Yeah," Yanjun replied, but ignored the drink and stood between her legs. His arm wrapped around her as he placed a kiss on her cheek before making his way down to her neck.

"H-Hey! Stop that," Scarlett blushed, pushing him away from her.

"That's what you get for yesterday," Yanjun said with a wide amused smile, taking the hand she used to push him away. "Teasing me with that shirt."

"Mhmm," she hummed and he took her drink before unscrewing it and taking a sip.

"I want to go to splash mountain after this," Nongnong announced staring at the map in his hands. "I want to get wet, it's too hot out here."

"Don't you dare," Scarlett said when Yanjun opened his mouth.

"I was just going to say I wanted to go too. Get your mind out of the gutter, Crimson," Yanjun shook his head at her with a mischievous grin on his face.

"As much as I love Yanson, if you guys could get a room that would be great," Linkai commented moving past them.

"We brought back some foods," Zhangjing said with food stacked in his arms. Chengcheng had his own stack while Yanchen had some drinks.

"I already have a whole meal," Yanjun looked at Scarlett.

"You're so annoying."

"Jiejie! Look what I got," Justin yelled running over with a hat on his head. It was a cap that had an elastic band and a rounded shape with Mickey Mouse ears.

"Oh my god, you look so cute and pure. Too bad you aren't innocent," Scarlett muttered as she hopped off the wall and went over to him.

"And I got you this," Justin said pulling a sequins Minnie Mouse headband from behind him.

"Aw thanks, J," Scarlett smiled, taking it in her hands before placing it on her head. What she did next annoyed Justin. Scarlett smiled and pinched Justin's cheeks and spoke in a baby voice. "You're so cute. What a cute wittle baby~"

"Jiejie!!"

Scarlett sat at her desk doing some homework since she had done her other work. She was almost done with her classes, but she would still have to deal with company work.

"Jiejie," Nongnong said knocking on the door of her office while some of the guys were outside swimming in the pool.

"Oh, hey, Nongnong. What's up," Scarlett smiled looking up from her laptop. He smiled and entered the room with some papers in his hands.

"I forgot to give you your mail from the past couple months. I didn't know if it was important or not, but I just brought it anyways."

"That's great. Thank you," she smiled politely as he handed them to her. It wasn't much, but she was happy that he did so since she had waited for her grades to come in.

"Uh...Justin wanted to know if you're going to come outside anytime soon too."

"Yeah, I'm just going to finish up this lesson and I'll be out. Make sure no one runs, okay," she smiled up at him and he quickly nodded before rushing out of the room.

"He's too pure for this world," she muttered, watching him before looking at the mail he brought her. Her eyes looked at the sender each time and found none from the school, but did find three without a sender.

A shiver ran down Scarlett's spine because she knew who sent them, but she didn't want to open the mail.

She tapped the envelopes on the edge of her desk as she tried to work up the courage to tear them open. With everything that was going on, she had forgot about the texts and mail she was sent from the person.

After a good five minutes of debating, she tore the first one open. If someone else were in the room, they would've immediately noticed Scarlett's shaky hands and irregular breathing.

Like the first letter she ever received, there was a thin folded piece of paper. When she unfolded it, there was a small sentence in the middle.

You're being difficult, Princess. Don't make me drag you back.

Scarlett folded it back up as soon as she finished reading it and grabbed the next envelope. Another slip of paper.

Do they know the things you've done? They don't know you like I do.

In the last one, she was expecting a slip of paper, but in this envelope was a picture of Scarlett and Yanjun, but Yanjun's face was crossed off over and over again. It was a picture of the two of them in Yanjun's car laughing.

Scarlett's fingers touched over the scratches over Yanjun's face. Her heart pounded in her chest and not in a good way.

"Crimson."

Scarlett slid the picture under her laptop as she looked up to see Yanjun standing in the door way in swim trunks with no shirt.

"Babe," she raised an eyebrow.

"C'mon before I carry you out of here and throw you into the pool," he threatened as her eyes moved over him.

"Wow, so romantic," Scarlett said, making eye contact and closing her laptop. "I'll be out in a moment. Let me change, okay?"

"Don't keep me waiting too long," he winked, pushing off the door frame and walking off.

Hearing his footsteps fade, Scarlett released a breath of air. "What am I going to do?"
