Aunt Song comes whispering "Young Miss! ".
Tang Xi wipes the tears from her face alertly and stands without turning back.
Aunt Song stuffs a box in her hands "Young Master is in study room. Go! Hide this somewhere!".
Tang Xi smiles hurtfully "Where would I hide this?". 'Just where would I hide this face of mine?! I have been fooling continuously!'.
Aunt Song sees Tang Xi standing lost in thoughts and smiles "Miss! Hurry! Its time to have lunch! So Young Master would be here any time!".
Saying so, she goes away hurriedly.
Meanwhile, Tang Xi looks at the box and opens it gloomily.
Destined to be mine....
Looking at words imprinted on the ring, she closes it instantly and walks towards their room. She stops at the door and gets her hand back from the doorknob.
She felt haunted by the previous memories and steps back from the room. 'Everything would have been fine, if I stepped away from this room! I was so lost in my fantasy world that I never tried to wake from this dream!'.
She looks at the door for a last time and smiles bitterly 'I am not in dreams anymore Mr.Lu'.
Tang Xi walks towards Jing's room and grits her teeth controlling her tears 'No one can replace you baby!'.
She opens the door and looks around the room. She closes the door and sits leaning to the door.

Lu Cheng is surfing some websites about the pregnancy complications. After every website, his fear would increase drastically as he couldn't take seeing her in hurt. After reading those articles, his head starts to throb and curses himself for 'making' her to face all these.
He looks at the time and sits suddenly as if he remembered to do something. He walks out of the room and opens their room happily. He looks around the room and smiles 'She should be eating her lunch by now'.
He runs downstairs and stumbles seeing the dining table empty.
Aunt Song comes with the dishes and informs "Miss asked to send her lunch upstairs".
He frowns "But she is not in the room".
Aunt Song too frowns "But she called me just now".
Lu Cheng turns to go upstairs but stops seeing Tang Xi coming down.
Tang Xi stares at Lu Cheng 'Wow! He is so desperate ...for what?'.
Lu Cheng smiles "Where were you?".
Tang Xi smiles meaningfully "In dreams till last minute".
He laughs "You are sleeping a lot".
Seeing him coming towards her, she controls her every ounce to not step back. 'If he is so good at pretending, then why should I fear him? Last time I was scared to lose Jing. But not this time. I too will see how long you would pretend'.
Lu Cheng makes her to sit and starts having his lunch.
Tang Xi notices Lu Cheng's every actions and loses her appetite. She takes a glass of juice and stands "I will eat later. I am not feeling hungry".
Aunt Song asks shocked "Miss! How could you not eat anything? You should have some at right time. Its not-".
Tang Xi rolls her eyes "Aunt Song...I won't die if I skip a single meal now !".
