SHE-DEVIL 3

Everyone gathered in black. You could see different types of emotions: tears, sadness, and the ones who just stood there staring at the grave tablet with the name Mei Lien.

'. Miss Lien was an angelic soul who showed kindness to the world, but unfortunately, she was thrown out of the world!!'. Everyone shook their heads.

'. May her gentle soul rest in peace!'.

'.[Cries]....Ahhhh!!'. Xiabo rolled on the ground.

'.[Crying]....'.

After the burial ceremony, Lei Wuije stood there crying with Xiabo.

'. Why is this so hard to put up with!'. She whispered to him as she faked her tears.

'. This is your best friend's burial ceremony.

'. I am not blind...it has her name written on it.

They smiled.

'. Mr Lei!'. Some women walked to them.

'. Hello!'. He waved gently towards them as they got to him.

'. We are so sorry about your loss!'.

'. Thank you so much for caring. He cries.

'. Just let go....she wouldn't be happy to see you crying.

'.[ Am sure she wants to kill us even in her grave!].

'. I promise to move on.

'. We will take our leave now.

'. Thank you for caring!'.The women walked away.

'. [Sighs]'.

'. Mr Lei!'. Lin Ba walled to him.

'. Mr Lin!!'. They had handshakes.

'. I am sorry for your loss.

'.[Sighs]....'.

'. Did you guys attend the ceremony?'. Xiabo asked.

'.Yes, we did!'.

'. We?'.

'. Mr Lu is waiting in the car'.

'. Lien and Mr Lu isn't that close, right?'.

'.[scoffs].....She most times visit the company'.

'. Umm!'. He slightly nodded.

'. Mr Lei!'. He called him.

'. Yes!'.

'. Mr Lu awaits you in the car'.

'. Okay!'.

'. This way please!'. He stretches his hand out.

Getting to the car, Mr Lei entered, he sat there with Mr Lu who was in black and had black sunglasses on.

'. Mr Lu thanks for attending the funeral'.

'. You don't have to, this is a boss's duty...and I am sorry for your loss.

'.[Sighs].....it would be hard moving on without her!'. He gently bows his head.

'. Hard?'.

'. I mean, she is no longer here with me, I would feel extremely lonely!'. He cries.

'. Even a fool can see that you never loved Miss Lien'. He turns to him.

'. What do you mean, Mr Lu?'.

'.You know what am talking about Mr Lei'. He stares at him fiercely.

'.What do you know about my love life?'.

'. I know that your love life is as complicated as why scientists can't figure out how God existed'. He smirked at him.

'. You know nothing Mr Lu!'.

'.[Smiles], Mr Lei...the question should be do you love yourself?'. They both stared at each other.

'.[ Pants].....you know nothing!....that's it. He opened the door and was about to get down.

'. Getting down means you are fired!'.

'. I work for your grandmother not you!'.

'. How would she know I fired you?! Besides she's still in the States and wouldn't care how I deal with workers like you'.

'. Speak!'. He gets back into the car.

'. My question is pretty simple.

'. Just ask'.

'. Why was Miss Lien out of the house at that hour under the heavy rain?'.

'. It was a normal couple issue'.

'. I would have believed it but there are too many coincidences.

'. What are you trying to say?'.

'. Miss Lien got killed that night and the mortuary was unexpectedly set ablaze'. He turns to him.

'. Mr Lu, you must be a fan of daily news!'.

'. Do not forget that Lei company is under my company.....whatever happens, get reached to me'.

'. Do not be overjoyed to listen to such news, Mr Lu'.

'. The reason why you get to manage Lei company is because your mother knelt in front of the company begging for you to be promoted after several years of work!'.

'. Do not remind me of the humiliation my mother faced!!'. He yelled angrily.

'. You should not get angry at me rather you should blame yourself.

'.[Pants]....'.

'. If you hadn't sabotaged your colleague's work you wouldn't have gotten yourself a black list in the company'.

'. You!!'.

'. Let me remind you if you do not want your mother to come back kneeling for you watch how you pretend to love someone'.

'. You know nothing!!'.

'. You don't know anything either.

'.[ Pants]...!'.

'. You can get down am sure someone more important awaits you!'. And he angrily came down.

'. Mr Lu!'. Lin Ba entered the car.

'. [Sighs]'.

'. Do you want to go somewhere Mr Lu?'.

'. Anyway cool'.

'. Okay'. And he drove off.

Getting home Lei Wuije slammed the door and started throwing things to the wall.

'.[ I know my son he wouldn't do much to anyone, I believe him!!]'. He recalled.

'. Baby!'. Xiabo walked to hug him but he pushed her to the couch.

'. Leave me alone!!'. He squats holding his head.

'. What happened between you two?'. She tried to speak but he kept smashing things.

'. Lei Wuije!!'.

'.[ Please leave!!]...[they pulled her away]'.

'. Lei we can seek things out just let me know what was wrong.

'. Mom!'. He cried as he finally came to rest.

'. It's okay. She hugs him.

'. They!....are going to pay for this!!'.

'. They will!...just put yourself together we still have a long way to go.

'. What way?'.

'. We can't let them know our weaknesses, we have got to be strong, okay?'.

'. I want them to end like a smashed glass and never be able to get back on their feet'.

'. Do not worry about it you have got me'.

'. Um!....starting from the main foundation'.

'. [Smiling].....just watch and see how we deal with them.

'. Thanks, darling'. He smiled at her.

'. You are welcome.

'....'.

'. Besides, what happened between you and the boss?'.

'. A story for another day, darling'.

'. I wonder when that day may be. And they smiled.

Lu Si Cheng was in his bedroom. He was working on some files.

'. Brrrrr!'. His phone ranged.

'. Hello.....who's this?'. He picked up.

'. You have got to be kidding me!!'.

'. Who?'.

'. You don't even bother to call us if we don't.

'. Huh?'.

'. You even forgot your mom's number!'. He takes a look at the contact again.

'. Mom!....how are you?!'. It was at that moment he realized.

'. What have you been doing lately?!'.

'. Me?.....having fun!'.

'. You mean working all day?'.

'. Not at all.....mom!'.

'. Really?...you didn't even recognize my number talk more of my voice.

'. Mom!... I was just stunned.

'. Did you see something you shouldn't see?'.

'. Mom stop being dirty-minded!'.

'. You wish!'.

'. How's grandma?'.

'. Fine.

'. Is she over there?'.

'. Grandma went out with the maids'.

'. Oh okay!'.

'. Have you finally found a girlfriend?!'.

'...Mom!!....how is America....!!....I heard there are burgers!!...wow!!.....amazing!!'.

'. Do not shut me, Si Cheng....'.

'. Okay, mom!'.

'. Get a girlfriend soon, living all alone with those machines is pretty scary!'.

'.Why would you think they are scaring?'.

'. I heard the news of a man who married a robot, how am I sure that you aren't going to end up like him!'.

'. Mom, you think pretty too much'.

'. You better get a girlfriend.

'. Mom!'.

'. I will be back soon.

'. Back soon?....aren't you supposed to spend another month over there?'.

'. I miss my favorite Chinese dishes.

'. Mom!'.

'. Son.....see you!'.

'. Mom!'. He couldn't say a word as the call ended unexpectedly.

'.[Sighs]'.

'.[ We are doomed]'.
