All of a sudden, a woman and a few other men in black were storming inside the VVIP room. Bai Yulin was never so happy to see her manager coming to her in an unexpected hour. Bai Yulin immediately exclaimed "Rou! Help me- I've ------- so help me!"

Li Rou became stupefied. How come the mighty and powerful Ji Haishan was suddenly acting familiar with her? And what did he say just now? She couldn't quite catch it. As if there was a muffled sound.

Li Rou turned to the stumbled Bai Yulin who was on the floor. She immediately became enraged. Bai Yulin was involved in an accident because of him yet there he was- knocking her down on the ground! As expected of a heartless, wealthy man of the 21st century.

Li Rou crouched down towards Bai Yulin to help her up but she suddenly slapped her hand away. Li Rou's eyes widened slightly as she kneeled down closer towards her model a.k.a her best friend. She whispered in her ear "Yulin, tone down your temper. I know you're angry but you have to maintain your image. Please... let me help you up."

The real Bai Yulin was there on the bed, looking so aggravated and ugly. She wanted to scream again. What the hell was happening?! She was here- not there!

"Rou-" when Bai Yulin wanted to make things clear once again, Ji Haishan seemed to have awoken from his mental shock.

Ji Haishan reluctantly took Li Rou's hand as he got up. His waist felt like it was broken in two. How was a woman so fragile?! He dusted off the hospital gown as he took a deep breath. Seeming to calm the storm that was brewing inside him.

"Okay... listen well. I'll be saying this just once." His sudden calm voice surprised Li Rou.

"I want to have a conversation with that woma- man... so go outside for now." he said. Li Rou had a frown etched on her face.

She didn't know why Bai Yulin was suddenly here when she was supposed to be recuperating in her own room. The moment she came back to her room, she was nowhere in sight. Li Rou wanted to scold her so badly but she knew Bai Yulin had it hard. So she tried to pacify her instead.

"Yulin, let's go back to your room for now. Why do you want to talk to young master Ji? If it's about the accident-" Ji Haishan cut her off immediately.

"I want to have a conversation with he- him now!" Ji Haishan had it hard not to mispronounce. His vein started to pop up but he held it in. He was frustrated enough.

"Just for a while. Wait for me outside." he told Li Rou without looking at her. Li Rou had the strangest expression. She noticed that Bai Yulin was acting out of character.

"Alright. I'll be waiting outside." Li Rou stated suddenly. She knew Bai Yulin was a hard-headed woman. The things they were discussing might be important so she just had to let it slide for now.

Li Rou signaled the bodyguards to walk out and she herself began to step away. She turned towards Bai Yulin one last time before she closed the door. Ji Haishan went to the door and he locked it without thinking twice.

"Wh- what are you going to do to me?" Bai Yulin's shoulder dropped and shrunk. She had with her the hospital blanket as she gripped it tightly like a kitten deprived of milk. Her eyes turned watery at the sudden development of events.

Ji Haishan saw his body in such pathetic condition. He clenched his jaw and formed a fist. How dare this woman made him look like this?!

"Snap out of it, woman! Don't make that face with my body!" he was so angry his voice turned out as a high pitch shriek. He looked so bitchy that Bai Yulin's face also turned super ugly.

"Hey you! Don't make that kind of bitch face! My face is my asset!" Bai Yulin shouted back. She was so excited just after the fashion show. She was about to take a short break before diving back in into the industry and appearing in the variety show next week.

Now her life was no more. It turned upside down just because of a car accident.

She bit her lip in frustration. She thought this was all a dream. It couldn't be real. This was simply ridiculous. Was it magic? A curse? Why must it happened to her? Even Li Rou couldn't recognize her. And now this woman- whom she now recognized as Ji Haishan, suddenly came barging in and raising his voice to her.

Bai Yulin started crying. Tears fell continuously through her eyes. She looked back at the glass window, she was Ji Haishan. No...! She didn't want to become a man. Although she admitted he was sexy and all- she was a woman. A woman at heart!

Ji Haishan turned rigid upon seeing himself crying like a baby. He looked so absurd he wanted to facepalm himself. But then he once again took a deep breath. He shook his head and repeated 'Calm down. Everything has a solution. Think rationally.'

"Okay, look. Now this isn't anyone's fault." his words woke her up instantly. She faced him with big round eyes. Ji Haishan cringed at the sight of it.

"Neither you nor I know something like this would happen. So for now, let's just have a quiet talk to solve this problem." his voice was as sweet as a goddess. Calm as the deep blue lake. His now green eyes were a bit cold and dark but the charm of Bai Yulin was still evident in her own body.

Bai Yulin looked at her own body which was now possessed by this man. She blinked her eyes several time. She couldn't believe it! She always looked back at her own recording or videos of herself walking down the catwalk. Pictures of her own shots. But she never saw how she would talk to everyone else.

She suddenly thought she was seeing a goddess in front of her.

Eh, wait! Just wait!

Wasn't SHE the goddess? Why did Ji Haishan still turned out to be a goddess too? Tsk- he didn't deserve it!

'Might be my body's charm that's standing out...' she couldn't help but mutter inwardly.
