The unfriendly visit

Who do you think you are to just walk into my house without any permission?!' John shouted at the two men that walked in his house uninvited.

If you don't leave this house this instance, I'll involve the security personnel. Do you have any idea who I am?' he further added in order to intimidate the strangers. He was very furious at how easily accessible his house has become, people can now easily walk in and out of his house all thanks to the incompetent security personnel he pays handsomely.

Look Mr. Li, you can shout all you want, but I only came here to tell you one thing, which is to steer clear of Ms. Tang. She belongs to another man, if you are seen with her anymore, the repercussion will be dire' Zhiyang, the leader of the two-man party said with certainty.

Hahaha…..' Are you a comedian or what?' You think you can just waltz dance into my own house and order me around. You clearly haven't done your research, you don't know who you are messing with' John replied as he reached for phone to alert the security.

Beijing Private School, 6th grade…..' Zhiyang started. John was startled, he dropped his phone as he understood the point Zhiyang was trying to make. Zheng attends Beijing Private school, and he is also in 6th grade, it can only mean one thing. These bastards have been tailing his son for days. John cursed under his breath. How useless exactly is this security he pays so much for.

What do you want me to do?' John asked the men. He wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible, their very sight disgust him.

It is pretty simple, cease all contact with Ms. Tang, that is all we ask of you, and you have our word your son will not be touched' Zhiyang said almost smiling. He knew using his son against him will make him cooperate faster rather than blackmailing him with his fame. Chen does not know the art of blackmailing, he should just stick to being the rich spoilt brat he is' Zhiyang thought to himself

As if I could trust you' John scorned. He obviously had no choice but to cooperate. Zheng is his life, he would do anything to keep his son out of harm's way, but this is not a decision he can lightly take. He decided to give the men the answer they want to hear so that he can have the time and think of a better solution.

Okay, if that's all you ask of me. I will comply. Please I am pleading with you, leave my son out of this' John pleaded. I don't mind paying you any amount you ask, just don't involve my son in this mess.

We don't want your money, we only need you to comply. Don't talk to or approach Ms. Tang again, ever! If you go back on your word, whatever happens to your son will be as a consequence of your action' Zhiyang said as he started walking towards the door with his partner.

And also, you can go and ungag your security personnel, we needed the privacy to talk to you alone' Zhiyan added with a witty smile.

After they left, John slumped down onto the sofa. He has no idea what to do. Leaving Tang is impossible, he cannot break her heart for the second time. However, his son's life is at risk, the people he just met seemed very dangerous. The only option he has is to contact Zheng's mother and leave him with her till he settles things. He is definitely not going to give up that easily.

That bitch!' John cursed under his breath. He wanted nothing to do with her, he purposely moved to Beijing just to take Zheng away from her. She chose her career over her husband and her son. He recalled all that happened, how he was once at the pinnacle of his career and how he had to sacrifice everything to be with his son.

********

John was at the top of his career in the movie industry, John Li was becoming a household name, everything was going smoothly until he received a phone call one day. The person on the other end of the phone was a female, John has been used to getting calls from female fans, some even go as far as sending nude pictures which makes him regularly change his phone number and address. How this lady got his number came as a shock to him, he was about to end the call when he heard….

We have a son' the lady said

Who are you?' John asked. After spending quite an ample time in the limelight, he is very well aware people will want to use any trick into extorting money from him.

My name is Yu Xiao, we met back in school….' She started introducing herself. John couldn't deny not knowing any Xiao, he remembered her. Her frail body, long silky black hair and adorable smile quickly flashed through his mind.

Where are you? Can we meet?' he asked. He remembered her, he remembered everything. That was a chapter of his life he wished he could forget, he never thought one day his past will come haunting him. This is a music he has to face, having become a changed man. He decided to make things right with this woman in any way he can.

I currently live in Guangzhou with my parents' she answered.

Send me your home address, I will come as soon as I can….' He wanted to add something. Apologize for disappearing on her. He decided to save it until they met.

Okay' she said as she ended the call.

Few minutes later, John received a message containing the home address where he will be forced to face the consequences of his reckless youthful life, he packed his bags and prepared to travel from Shanghai to Guangzhou.

To make things right

Woah!... time to visit John's past
