Still on the flashback

Bai Cao was shocked by Ruo Bai's behaviour because he never behaved like that ever.

Bai Cao - Senior Brother Ruo Bai, you are hurting me.

Hearing that, Ruo Bai immediately removes his hands from Bai Cao's arm.

Ruo Bai - Why don't you understand, Bai Cao? I don't want you to go there.

Bai Cao - But I have to go there. I have to make them realise that they are wrong. Their ways to train people are wrong. I have to make them realise.

Ruo Bai - Why are you being childish, Bai Cao?

Bai Cao - I am not being childish, Senior Brother Ruo Bai.

Ruo Bai laughed.

Ruo Bai - This is the reason why I asked Chu Yuan to not tell you that I am alive and I am in the US.

Bai Cao - What do you mean?

Ruo Bai - If I would have told you that I am alive, I am unconscious and I am in the US, wouldn't you act childishly?

Bai Cao was shocked but on Ruo Bai's face... there was no regret on his face.

Bai Cao - So, you were ashamed of me!

Ruo Bai - I didn't say that.

Bai Cao - Then what did you say?

Ruo Bai - Why are getting distracted from the main point of this discussion?

Bai Cao - What is the main point of this discussion?

Ruo Bai - That I don't want you to go to Feng Yun Hall.

Bai Cao - And who are you to stop me?

Ruo Bai was literally shocked.

Bai Cao - You were not there when I needed you the most, and now when you came back... you want me to follow your orders! Who are you? No one. You are no one to me. You were not there... when I needed you the most, but they were there with me supporting me, helping me in bringing Song Bai hall in the first position.

Ruo Bai's head was bowed in shame

Bai Cao - Let me ask you one question. Bringing Song Bai Hall in the first position was your dream, right?

Ruo Bai - Yeah.

Bai Cao - So where were you when I was struggling to bring Song Bai Hall on the first position? Oh right, you were lying on the hospital bed in the US unconsciously. You were always there with me, Senior Brother Ruo Bai, but not in my struggling, only in my happy times... you were there, but they were there in my happy times and in my struggle too. Do you even know how much I wanted you to be here? Obviously, you know, after all, you were spying on me.

Bai Cao took a long breath.

Bai Cao - Listen to me very carefully, Senior Brother Ruo Bai, I am going to Feng Yun Hall, and I will prove to you that I am not behaving childishly.

Ruo Bai - For whom are you going there? Ting Hao?

Bai Cao - It's none of your concern.

Ruo Bai - What about us, Bai Cao?

Bai Cao - We are over, actually, we were long over.

Then Bai Cao turned around and the tears whom she was stopping for a long time started coming out and she ran away.

Bai Cao(in her mind) - I can't let Senior Brother Ruo Bai see my pain, my tears. It's over.

She was just running, and that was the moment when Ting Hao saw Bai Cao running.

Ting Hao - Bai Cao, stop.

Bai Cao - Senior Ting Hao!

Bai Cao wanted to stop, but she didn't.

Bai Cao(in her mind) - I am sorry, Senior Ting Hao,  but I can't stop right now.

Then Bai Cao saw a cab coming, she sat in it. Ting Hao was still screaming her name. Bai Cao turned back and saw everything from the back window.

Flashback over.

On the other side, they all were inside the palace aka house.

Yi Feng and Ruo Bai were sitting face to face. Ting Hao was walking and right under stress and Chang An was looking at him.

Chang An - Ting Hao, stop. Are you not feeling dizzy?

Ting Hao - No.

Chang An - Even I am feeling dizzy from just looking at you doing this. Sit down for a while.

Ting Hao - I can't sit, Chang An.

Then Chang An holds Ting Hao's hand and made him sit.

Chang An - Sit and think of an idea to find Bai Cao.

Then Ting Hao sat down, but now he was shaking his leg, and Fei Yu noticed it. He puts his hand on Ting Hao's leg and stops him to shake his leg.

Fei Yu - Senior Ting Hao, stop. Even I am feeling pain looking at you while you are shaking your leg like this.

Xiao Ying - Senior Ting Hao, don't worry. She is  Bai Cao. She K.Oed goons with a broken leg.

Xiao Ying(loudly to make Ruo Bai listen) - She is strong because couch Chang An has trained her like this.

Then Ting Yi hits Xiao Ying on her leg. Xiao Ying looked at her and she pulled Xiao Ying near herself.

Xiao Ying - Why did you hit me?

Ting Yi - What are you doing? Why are you making Ruo Bai feel that everything was perfect when he was not here?

Xiao Ying - Because it is the truth.

Ting Yi - Xiao Ying, Ruo Bai is Yi Feng's best friend. Think about him once.

Xiao Ying - Nothing can change my behaviour with Senior Brother Ruo Bai, right now. He has hurt Bai Cao a lot.

Then suddenly, Ting Hao bangs on the table which made everyone startled, and then he stood up.

Ting Hao - Guys, we can't just sit like this. We need to go out to find Bai Cao.

Ruo Bai - Didn't you asked the police to find out about the car?

Ting Hao - I did. So?

Ruo Bai - So, eventually, they will find Bai Cao.

Ting Hao - I can't just sit here. I am going out, Chang An.

Chang An - Okay.

Then Ting Hao went out.

Chang An - I don't believe that Ting Hao thought that you are much better than him for Bai Cao.

Ruo Bai - Why do you take so stress for Bai Cao? It's not even that serious matter.

Chang An - When it comes to Bai Cao... every matter is very serious for me.

Ruo Bai gave an expression as he was impressed by what Chang An said. Then Chang An started looking out at Ting Hao from the glass window.

Ruo Bai - You like Bai Cao. Don't you, Chang An?

Chang An turned his face at Ruo Bai with an expression full of whats.

Looking at his expression, Ruo Bai smiled.

Ruo Bai  - Let me ask you this question in another way. Is Bai Cao important to you?

And Chang An answered with hesitation.

Chang An - Yes.

Everyone was shocked by what Chang An said.

Then Xiao Ying started whispering in Ting Yi's ears.

Xiao Ying - Didn't couch said that he is over Bai Cao?

Ting Yi - He did say that.

Xiao Ying - Then why is he saying this?

Ting Yi - You know that whatever Chang An says has a double or maybe triple meaning to it.

Then both of them looked at each other's faces and nodded, then they moved a little away from each other.

Ruo Bai - You know that Bai Cao is really very important to Ting Hao too.

Chang An - Obviously I know that. This is the reason why Bai Cao is important to me.

And this time... Ruo Bai gave an expression full of whats.

Chang An - Let me simplify this for you all. For Ting Hao, Bai Cao is really important... more than himself and for me, Ting Hao is important. In order to keep Ting Hao safe and sound, I will have to keep Bai Cao safe and sound. In the same way, if I want Ting Hao to be happy, I will have to make sure that Bai Cao is happy. So indirectly, Bai Cao is important to me.

Then suddenly, Ting Hao came inside rushing.

Ting Hao - Guys, they found Bai Cao.
