121 HOPELESSLY DEVOTED

The three-month time limit that Teng Man Rui was long past. She was still safely hidden in the suburbs. She found it quite odd that Shi Fan Hai had not found her yet, but she's convinced that it was for the best.

These past months she had been quite contented with her simple life. She had managed to set up her own little clay pots and vases store in the village. The villagers treated her well, despite her weird appearance – always wearing a veiled hat.

She felt secured, now that she had known her bodyguard, and had decided to keep him close to her most of the time.

However, the bodyguard had been acting so much weirder every single day – a little bit more than the previous day. She's beginning to be worried about him.
