A Perfect Curse Tattoo

Yu Qiao's back stiffened, and he was unable to reply to Mo Lihua. He felt like cold water had been thrown at him, waking him up in his current situation.

His mind was originally clouded with his great desire to just stop Mo Lihua and that man from being intimate but because of this desire, he has forgotten in this short span of time with Mo Lihua that he is not single, that he has a girlfriend, so he is not supposed to be acting like an *sshole, nor should he be making himself a hindrance to his supposed sister's relationship - while somehow managing to ogle at her as well.

However, he is still happy despite the guilt, especially after knowing that she still has not given up her innocence.

With great reluctance, Yu Quia lifted Mo Lihua away from him so she can sit properly. Distant enough so she won't feel his shamelessness. Though he is only a man and he wants to make her realize something, it is still not right.

Before all of his rationality turned into zilch, he might as well put some distance between them as he cannot betray her innocent trust in him.

Yu Qiao cleared his throat, averting his gaze away from Mo Lihua who was now looking at him blindly with confusion.

"When you love someone or want someone, there are lots of reasons. Most of the time if it's true, you cannot even explain it." Yu Qiao spoke in truth, as even he is not aware why he choose Zang Fei before. Zang Fei had fascinated him for some time and he just felt that it was the right choice at that time to make her as his girlfriend.

He also didn't want to draw a line between why6 he felt as he did for his girlfriend to the obvious fact that he HAS a girlfriend at this particular moment. thread the line of the status of his love to his girlfriend now. As long as they are doing great, so be it. Who knows what tomorrow will bring anyway.

"I am not saying you are doing everything wrong, it's just that there are still limits as well. Unless..." Yu Qiao cannot continue further after feeling the lump in his throat. He is supposed to say 'unless you want the man to be your legal husband', but he just does not have the energy to do so.

Yu Qiao started the car and drove towards their families' houses, which were not so far away from the bar.

During the drive, Yu Qiao sometimes gave side glances to Mo Lihua. After his last statement, she did not speak further and just bowed her head, both hands clenched into a fist on top of her thighs.

Mo Lihua also refused to speak further even after they had entered the gates. He tried to get her attention multiple times, but he was just ignored.

Yu Qiao cannot help but question himself. 'Too much? I hope she understands at least what I am trying to say...' he tried to reassure himself.

The bungalow they were approaching was owned by Yu Qiao's family. The only people staying there were the caretaker and the gardener.

As soon as the car stopped, Mo Lihua immediately exited the car and began to walk blindly. This was not the first time she stayed in this bungalow, but she is still not familiar enough with the3 grounds that she can roam around confidently at night, especially without her glasses.

"Lihua hold on!" Yu Qiao exclaimed, quickly following behind Mo Lihua. She seemed to not care anymore if she stumbled over upon something or hit a wall as she continued to walk blindly.

"I said hold on!" he repeated because instead of stopping Mo Lihua walked faster. "Stop! Where are you going?" he shouted when she continued to walk straight ahead.

Mo Lihua ignored Yu Qiao. Her face looks so tired and exhausted, Added to the fact that she had recently been crying, a lot, her appearance at this time was incredibly pitiful.

She continued to walk forward, with no definite plan as she just wanted to stay away from Yu Qiao.

Her heart cannot accept any more pain. If she falls on her knees, becomes bloody and injured because she is being so stupid as to walk around blindly, well, so much the better.

Why? At least physical pain can heal quickly and it can be used as a distraction.

She will probably get a tattoo as a reminder that she will never have a chance, ever, to enter Yu Qiao's heart. That is forever she will just be a sister to him. "Death by sisterhood" sounds like a perfect curse tattoo.

"Ah!" Mo Lihua exclaimed suddenly, feeling herself falling!
