ENEMY OR ADMIRER

Ting Hao was wearing his Bluetooth headphones and hearing some music. Suddenly, Ting Hao stopped because his phone fell down on the road. Ting Hao was going to pick his phone.

On the other hand, Bai Cao was still smiling. Then suddenly, she heard a car's horn.

The car was pushing the horn a lot. Then Bai Cao turned back and saw a car coming towards Ting Hao. It was the same car that was pushing the horn all this time. Ting Hao could not hear that car's horn because he was listening to music. As Bai Cao saw that car coming towards Ting Hao, she shouted...

Bai Cao - Senior Ting Hao!

But this was of no use. The car was coming towards Ting Hao at full speed. Seeing that, Bai Cao left her cycle and ran towards Ting Hao yelling his name.

As others heard Bai Cao's voice, they stopped and turned back. They also saw the car coming towards Ting Hao.

A FEW DAYS LATER

It was night and Ting Hao was sleeping peacefully in his room.

Bai Cao slowly came inside his room. She was looking at him lovingly.

Bai Cao(thinking) - He looks so cute while sleeping.

Then suddenly, her eyes fell upon the injury Ting Hao had on his leg. A drop of tear fell off Bai Cao's eye.

She went near Ting Hao and sat near his leg. Then she slowly extends her hand towards Ting Hao's injury and started changing the bandage.

After a couple of minutes, Bai Cao changed the bandage. She got up from the bed and was about to go out but before she could, someone pulled her back by holding her hand.

It was no one else but Ting Hao. Bai Cao landed straight in his arms.

Bai Cao - Senior Ting Hao, when did you wake up?

Ting Hao - I woke up when you were changing my bandage.

Bai Cao - Did it hurt?

Ting Hao - A little...

Bai Cao - I am really sorry, Senior Ting Hao. I didn't want to hurt you.  I am really sorr...

Before Bai Cao could complete saying, Ting Hao kissed her forehead and Bai Cao was blushing.

Ting Hao - It's ok, Bai Cao. I am not hurt.

Bai Cao - Are you sure?

Ting Hao - Very sure.

Bai Cao - Then I will get going now. You should sleep.

Then Bai Cao got up and was about to open the door. Then suddenly, she heard Ting Hao calling her. She turned back.

Bai Cao - Yes, Senior Ting Hao.

Ting Hao - Thank you, Bai Cao. Thank you so very much for taking such good care of me.

Bai Cao smiled and left the room. As she came out of the room, her smile fainted. There were tears in her eyes.

Then she opened the door of her room and saw Xiao Ying sitting there. Eyes which was filled with tears is now filled with anger.

She went inside the room and shuts the door.

Xiao Ying - What is the matter, Bai Cao? Since the day Senior Ting Hao met with that accident, you are not talking to me. You are behaving like I don't even exist. It's evident that you are angry about something and everyone can see that. But can you ples...

Before Xiao Ying could complete, Bai Cao interrupted.

Bai Cao - I don't want to talk to you. So please, leave.

Xiao Ying - Bai Cao, why are you behaving like this? What is going on in your mind? You didn't even confess to Senior Ting Hao that night.

Hearing that, Bai Cao looked at Xiao Ying angrily.

Bai Cao - You still want me to confess! Are you sick!? Just because of your nonsensical talks, I took the decision of confessing to Senior Ting Hao. If you hadn't forced me to this extent, I would have never thought of doing this.

Xiao Ying - Why are you saying like this, Bai Cao?

Bai Cao - As if you know nothing. Even my thought of confessing to him made him land in an accident. If I will propose him, God knows what will happen... he might... no... I can never let this happen... no...

Xiao Ying - Bai Cao, stop being a fool. That was just an accident. A pure accident. Nothing than that. It's nothing to do with you. Got it?

Bai Cao - Oh really! Then why did this accident happen when I was about to propose to him that night? Why did it happen just on that day which was going to change our lives? Why did it happen when we were going to be together forever?

Bai Cao sat on the bed and started crying.

Bai Cao - I can't even think of leading a life with him. My thoughts can hurt him too. Then how can I just tell him what's there in my heart? If he will get to know my feelings, he won't let me stay away from him. He will pull me closer. When he will pull me towards himself, how will I resist myself? You know that I can't do that. It's impossible... it's impossible for me to stay away from him when he wants me to stay closer to him. And my closeness, my love can only give him pain. Can't you see that? You already got a demo. Then why... why are you asking this to me again? Why're you hurting me by making me realize that I can never love him? He can never be mine... it's hurting, Xiao Ying... it's hurting a lot.

Xiao Ying - Bai Cao, you did nothing. He can still be yours. You just need to tell him the truth. You just need to tell him what is in your heart. It's not late yet.

Bai Cao - Just stop it... can't you see what has happened? Someone is hurt because I love him immensely and I thought to make him mine... then how can you even think that I will tell him my feelings? Even after knowing that my love is nothing but a deal of ruining his life. I can't do this to him. No.

Xiao Ying - Bai Cao!

Bai Cao - I am the one who hurts not only others but also my own self. What a fool I am! How could I be so weak that I gave him the right of coming closer to me? How could I exceed the boundaries between us? Whenever he pulls me closer, kisses me on my forehead... I feel so safe... I feel like... nothing can be more pleasant than his being near me. But at the same moment, I recall that I can't be the one who will be safe in his arms... I can't be the one who will be closest to him... I remember... how unlucky I am! I'm hurting myself and him too by exceeding the boundaries. Why, why did it happen? Why did you tell me to accept my feelings? Why? Why, why did it happen? Why did you tell me to accept my feelings? Why? If something would have happened to him that day, then? If the car would have hit him on his head, then?

FLASHBACK

Ting Hao was about to get hurt on his head by the car. But Bai Cao pulled him towards herself at the right moment. But because the car was really close to him and was coming at a great speed, it hits Ting Hao's leg badly. Ting Hao was bleeding. But even if he was the one who was hurt, he didn't care about himself. He got up and started looking at Bai Cao whether she is hurt somewhere or not.

Ting Hao - Bai Cao, are you hurt somewhere? Are you ok?

Bai Cao - Senior Ting Hao, you are bleeding.

Soon they called the ambulance and took him to the hospital.

Bai Cao was standing outside the room where Ting Hao was being treated.

Bai Cao stayed strong in front of everyone. She didn't shed a tear. Even if her eyes were filled with tears, she didn't let them fall off her eyes.

Then suddenly, a nurse passing by saw that Bai Cao was hurt in her knee and was bleeding.

Nurse - Miss, you are bleeding. Please come with me.

Bai Cao - No, I am ok.

Nurse - Please understand, Ma'am. You need to apply something to your wound.

Chang An - Bai Cao, go. If Ting Hao will get to know that you were bleeding and didn't allow the nurse to apply ointment on your leg, then he will scold us. Do you want us to get scolded?

Bai Cao - Ok, I will go.

Nurse - This way, Ma'am.

Then Bai Cao went with the nurse to a room. Bai Cao sat on a chair and the nurse started applying an ointment on her leg.

Bai Cao - Please do it a little fast, I need to go.

Nurse - Relax. I know you are tense but nothing will happen to him. He has to get well for you who loves him so much.

Saying that, the nurse got up and went from there.

Hearing to nurse's words, the tears that Bai Cao stopped all this time are now started to fall.

Bai Cao - Please God! Please save him... I promise I won't tell him what I feel! I won't tell him that I love him. Please... don't give me this punishment... please...

Then Bai Cao wipes her tears and went towards Ting Hao's room.

As she reached there, she saw the doctor who was treating Ting Hao coming out. She ran towards him.

Bai Cao - How is he?

Doctor - There is nothing to worry about. He is just injured in his leg and the injury is not very big. It will be healed in a few days.

Chang An - Can we take him home?

Doctor - Yeah, you can but you guys have to come daily for the checkups.

Chang An - Ok. Thank you so much, Doctor.

Doctor - You are most welcome.

Then the doctor went from there.

FLASHBACK ENDED

Xiao Ying - Bai Cao, nothing would have happened to him. You were there to save him and you did save him.

Bai Cao - Yeah, I did save him and I am the only one because of whom he landed in this problem.

Xiao Ying - Bai Cao!

Bai Cao - Enough, Xiao Ying. I think you should go to your room. I want to sleep now.

Then Bai Cao holds Xiao Ying's hand and pulls her towards the door. Then she opens the door.

Xiao Ying - Bai Cao!

Bai Cao - Leave, Xiao Ying. Don't provoke me right now. I have to go to the hospital with Senior Ting Hao too. So, please... leave.

Xiao Ying - Ok.

Then Xiao Ying went from there and Bai Cao closes the door.

She lied down on her bed and slept.

The next day

As usual, Bai Cao woke up and went to freshen up. After some time, she went towards the kitchen. As she reached there she saw that Ting Hao was already there.

Bai Cao - Senior Ting Hao, what are you doing here?

Ting Hao - Cooking. As usual.

Bai Cao(angrily) - Senior Ting Hao, how many times do I need to tell you that you need to rest? I am tired of tell you the same thing again and again.

Ting Hao - Then why are you saying? Don't say. Let me do what I want to do.

Bai Cao - Okay, do whatever you want to do. You want to cook, right?

Ting Hao - Yeah.

Bai Cao - Ok. Then I will go to Bingwei's room.

Ting Hao - Why will you go there?

Bai Cao - Because I have nothing to do here.

Ting Hao - No, you won't go.

Bai Cao - Why?

Ting Hao - Because I am telling you.

Bai Cao - And why should I listen to you when you don't listen to me?

Ting Hao glared at Bai Cao and Bai Cao glared back at him.

Ting Hao - Fine. I will go and sit on the sofa. That is allowed, right.

Bai Cao - Yeah.

Then Ting Hao went and sat on the sofa and on the other hand, Bai Cao started cooking.

Then one by one, everyone started coming down and sat at the table.

Then Xiao Ying went near Bai Cao to help her in cooking.

Bai Cao - Xiao Ying, go and sit down. I can do this alone. Please.

Xiao Ying - But...

Bai Cao - Please.

Xiao Ying sighs and sat at the table. Ting Hao was noticing everything happening between Bai Cao and Xiao Ying.

Ting Hao(thinking) - What is going on in between them?

After some time, Bai Cao finished cooking. She severed the food to everyone and all started eating.

After eating

Everyone was sitting on the sofa with their bags ready.

Chang An - Bai Cao, are you again going with Ting Hao today for check up?

Bai Cao - Yeah.

Chang An - Ok then we all will head out towards Feng Yun Hall.

Yi Feng - Xiao Ba is already here.

Bai Cao - Ok.

Chang An - Let's go guys.

Then everyone went towards the Feng Yun Hall except Ting Hao and Bai Cao.

Both of them sat in the car and Xiao Ba drove it towards the hospital.

Ting Hao - Bai Cao.

Bai Cao - Yeah, Senior Ting Hao?

Ting Hao - What is going on in between you and Xiao Ying?

Bai Cao - Nothing. Why are you asking?

Ting Hao - Because I have been noticing that there is some problems between you both.

Bai Cao - It's nothing like that, Senior Ting Hao.

Then both of them said nothing.

After some time, they reached the hospital.

The doctor was examining Ting Hao.

Bai Cao - Is everything ok, doctor?

Doctor - Yeah. Your leg has healed really fast, Ting Hao.

Ting Hao - Are you saying that my leg is healed wholly?

Doctor - Yes.

Ting Hao - Really!

Doctor - Yeah.

Ting Hao - Thank God! Now I don't have to sit all the time.

Bai Cao - Can he practice martial arts now should he needs to take any precaution?

Doctor - Precaution is needed for a couple of days but he can practice.

Ting Hao - Can I go to Feng Yun Hall today?

Bai Cao - Senior Ting Hao!

Doctor - Well, you can go but take some precaution. Don't give a lot of pressure to your leg. Ok?

Ting Hao gave no reply.

Bai Cao - Did you hear that, Senior Ting Hao?

Ting Hao - Yeah. I did.

Bai Cao - Will you take precautions or no?

Ting Hao - I will take precautions. Happy?

Bai Cao - Yeah but if you won't take precaution then I am going to tell this to doctor and you know what else I will do.

Ting Hao - Fine.

Doctor - You are very luck, Ting Hao to have a girlfriend like Bai Cao.

Both Ting Hao and Bai Cao looked at each other.

Bai Cao - Thank you, doctor.

Then Bai Cao and Ting Hao came out of the hospital and sat in the car. Then Xiao Ba drove them towards the Feng Yun Hall.

After some time, they reached Feng Yun Hall and went inside.

There they saw that everyone was practicing.

Suddenly, Ting Hao puts his hand on Bai Cao shoulder and started pretending as he is badly injured. Bai Cao was confused.

Bai Cao - Senior Ting Hao, what are you doing?

Ting Hao - Just pretend as I am badly injured again.

Bai Cao - Why?

Ting Hao - You ask too many questions, Bai Cao.

Bai Cao - And I have the rights.

Ting Hao - Fine. I was you to do this because I want everyone to think that I am injured again.

Bai Cao - I know that but do you want that?

Ting Hao - Because I want to prank them.

Bai Cao - Why?

Ting Hao - For fun.

Bai Cao - And you think it's fun?

Ting Hao - Yes. It's fun for me.

Bai Cao - No, Senior Ting Hao. Let's not do this.

Ting Hao - Bai Cao, do you want to see me  happy or not?

Bai Cao(thinking) - This is the only thing I want, Senior Ting Hao.

Ting Hao - Bai Cao, do you want to see me happy or not?

Bai Cao - Yes, I do want to see you happy.

Ting Hao - Then do what I am saying.

Bai Cao - Ok.

Then Bai Cao also started pretending as Ting Hao is injured. As everyone saw Ting Hao, they went towards him. Yin Xiu also went near him.

Chang An - What happened, Ting Hao.

Ting Hao - Nothing, my leg got twisted.

Ting Yi - How?

Ting Hao - I don't know. Maybe because my leg is really weak.

As Yin Xiu heard that, she takes a few steps back looking down. Then she raises her head and looks at Ting Hao. Then she went from there to her room.

Chang An - Why are you so carless, Ting Hao?

Bai Cao - Yeah. Even I told him to be careful but he didn't listen.

As Ting Hao heard Bai Cao saying that, he pulls Bai Cao near him.

Ting Hao - What are you doing?

Bai Cao - I am just doing what you asked me to do. Pretend that you are injured.

Bai Cao smiled. And again started scolding Ting Hao. Everyone else also started scolding him.

They scolded Ting Hao for ten minutes straight. Then suddenly, Ting Hao got up.

Ting Hao - Enough, guys. You guys are scolding me for so long. Now enough.

Everyone was shocked to see Ting Hao standing straight except Bai Cao. They all were looking at Ting Hao's leg. Then they all raised head and started looking at Ting Hao angrily.

Ting Hao(scared) - Guys.

Chang An - So you were pranking us. Don't you?

Ting Hao - Guys, it's nothing like that.

Ting Yi - Oh, really! Then how are you standing straight on your legs? Few minutes ago you were not able to stand straight then how suddenly this happened?

Everyone started taking steps towards Ting Hao and Ting Hao was taking steps backwards.

Ting Hao(thinking) - What should I do? They will kill me if they will get to know that I was pranking them. Why do I put myself in these types of problem?

Chang An - Ting Hao, how did this happen?

Ting Hao - Miracle! Miracle happened guys. That too because of you all. If you all wouldn't have scolded me, then this miracle would have never happened.

As everyone heard that, they all started laughing.

Ting Hao - Why are you all laughing? 

Chang An - Look at you, Ting Hao. You are so scared.

Ting Hao - I am not scared.

Ting Yi - If you are not, then why are hiding that you were pranking us?

Ting Hao - You guys know that I was pranking you all?

Chang An - Yes we did. I actually over heard your conversation with Bai Cao.

Ting Hao - You guys scared me to death.

And everyone started laughing.

On the other side,  Yin Xiu reached her room and locks the door.

Yin Xiu - I am sorry, Drillmaster. I am really sorry that you have to go through all this. And it's all because of Bai Cao. If she would not have loved you, then this would have never happened. But if she would not have loved you, then how would I got to know the truth?

FLASHBACK

* Note - It's the time when everyone was at Leavenworth at Christy's hotel.

Yin Xiu was going back to Washington then suddenly, she stopped.

Yin Xiu - Why am I listening to him? Why am I doing things what he asked me to do? I should do what Chen Zhou asked me to do which is keep an eye on them.

Then Yin Xiu took the U-turn.

After some time, she reached to Christy's hotel.

She came out and started looking here and there, then suddenly, her eyes fell upon a room. It was no one else's but Ting Hao's. Bai Cao was also sitting there holding his hand.

As Yin Xiu saw that, she went near the room's window and started hearing was Bai Cao was saying.

Bai Cao - But later when you fell off that building, at that very moment, I knew that I have fallen in love with you...

As Yin Xiu heard that, she was fuming with anger.

Yin Xiu - What the hell is she saying? How can she fall in love with him?

Then she started listening to everything what Bai Cao was saying. And whenever Bai Cao was saying that she loves Ting Hao, her anger was increasing. Then suddenly, she heard a noise of something breaking. It was nothing but Xiao Ying.

As Bai Cao saw Xiao Ying, she went to her and took her away.

Yin Xiu - What the hell! Why does Bai Cao love drillmaster? And what is happening to me? Why am I feeling so angry? Or is it jealousy? Why would I be jealous? Do I love him?

FLASHBACK ENDED.

Yin Xiu - And that was the moment when I got to know that I love you, drillmaster.

TO BE CONTINUED.
