"hmm?" not understanding his words, Sia turned her head and looked at Mu Jun questioningly

"well, I don't mean anything. It's just that I feel we take him for granted. When you were in a coma he was the one who was worried about you the most. He would visit you daily and cry next to your bed so…"

"I know" Sia suddenly interrupted him

"Hmm?"

Looking at John through the mirror, Sia said "He might not say anything but I know that he has sacrificed a lot just for me. All these years, he willingly stayed by my side and guarded me like a father. When I was sad, he would try his best to make me laugh. When I missed my family, he would find ways to bring them or take me back to the country secretly. When I messed around, he would help me clean up. All these years, without asking for anything in return he did many things for me, so many things that I can never repay it back in this life."

"You know what? That day before I lost my consciousness, I was most afraid of him finding me dead. All these years, we have been supporting each other to grow up in an unknown country. The time I spent with him is more than the time I spent with my family. He was like a father, a brother, and a good friend, giving me all his love. That's why I behave like a child and throw tantrums when I'm around him because I can only do that with him"

"Then…is it okay to behave as such with him?" Mu Jun asked in confusion

Shaking her head, Sia smiled helplessly "Infact It's because I understand his feelings too well that I have to behave as such. The moment I soften, he would cry more and end up getting more hurt. So I always behave overbearingly and beat him up just to bring out his usual self. That's how we are used to getting together"

Glancing at the sleeping John with a loving smile on her face, Sia said gently "Mu Jun, John is an indispensable part of my heart. Neither I nor you or my family can ever change that. For him, I'm willing to do anything, even if that means giving my life to him. He- is my sworn brother, the best brother. Though not bound by blood but we are bound with Soul"

The next day morning, with a start John woke up from his bed only to find that he was in an unfamiliar room. Looking left and right, he suddenly lifted the sheet looked down. Seeing that he was fully clothed, John sighed in relief. But the next moment his body suddenly tightened when he recalled the dream he had.

In his dream, he saw Sia, looking alive and kicking, he heard her familiar voice and the sweet anger. It also felt very real when he was hit but now he wasn't sure.

The dream felt so surreal that, he did not know whether to believe it or not.

Just as he was still in his hangover and was confused, the door to the room was opened and a beautiful young girl appeared at the door.

Seeing that John was awake, Sia explained "Oh, you're awake? We were just about to have breakfast and thought to see whether you would wake up. Now that you are, hurry up and have breakfast with us"

Stunned, it took forever for John to react

"Sia?" he called out doubtfully

"Hmm?" Sia responded

To confirm whether she was real or he was still dreaming, John hurriedly jumped off his bed and walked towards her. Holding her cheeks with both of his hands, he only believed her when he felt the warmth under his palm. No longer holding his emotion, John cried "You-You are awake?"

"Mmm…I woke up" Sia responded gently without resisting his touch.

Pulling her into his embrace, John hugged her tightly and cried "You are really awake? That's great! That's great!"

Hugging him back, Sia caressed his back gently when she felt him crying like a baby.

It took a long while for John to release all the stress and emotion he had been carrying inside.

"Well-well, calm down. Ain't I alright?"

"mmm….it's good that you are alright" John answered and bowed his head to kiss her forehead just like he used to in the past.

But just his kiss was about to land on her forehead, a rough palm with long fingers appeared like a wall between him and Sia.

Frowning with displeasure, he looked at the person who blocked his attempt to kiss his baby sister only to see a dark-faced man.

With an unhappy look, Mu Jun glared at John and said while suppressing his displeasure "You are only allowed to hug her. You cannot kiss her, anywhere. Only I'm allowed to do that"

".…" Speechless, John stared at Mu Jun for a long while before he asked against Mu Jun's palm "What are you doing here?"

Pushing his face away, Mu Jun pulled Sia into his arms with the other hand and answered indifferently "If I don't stay in my home, where else do you expect me to stay?"

"Huh? This is your house?"

"Yup"

Looking around the room which obviously looked different from his mansion, John asked curiously "You changed houses?"

"Nope, this is my newly purchased apartment" Mu Jun responded indifferently

"But why?" John asked curiously

"Because there are too many monkeys around who keep disturbing my time with my baby girl so I could only purchase a house only for the two of us"

".…" Speechless, John glanced at Mu Jun's right hand that the latter had kept it a distance away from his body, he suddenly regretted. If he had known, he would have at least licked and bit his palm so that the latter would cut his hand because of disgust.

If Mu Jun knew what John was thinking, not sure whether he would cut his hand, but he might definitely chop John's mouth.

Sia and Mu Jun did not stay in the room for long and left after instructing John to freshen up to have breakfast.

Meanwhile, as soon as Mu Jun walked out of the room, he rushed to wash his hand that touched John's stinky mouth. He washed his hands until he became red but he was still not satisfied.

In the hand, Sia had to take the initiative to kiss his right hand so that Mu Jun would not hurt his hand.

It was only after his palm was purified by Sia's kiss did Mu Jun smiling in satisfaction. Giving her a good kiss, he walked towards the dining table to have breakfast.

Not long after, John walked out of his room and made his way to the dining table to join the couple for breakfast.

Just he took his seat and was prepared to eat, he heard Mu Jun say "Sorry for not informing you"

Confused, John raised his eyebrows and looked up at Mu Jun "huh?"

"I had wanted to inform you in the first place when Sia woke up, but I heard doctor Fei say that you were away dealing with your business so I did not want to disturb you. But still, sorry for not informing you and giving you a bad surprise"

Shocked, John did not know how to react. Who would expect this great lord to apologize? Its already his honor to receive his apology but John still found it difficult to accept.

Only Sia understands the reason behind his apology. It was because he did not want to wrong the people she cared so he was willing to bow down and apologize, all because of her.

Suddenly, Sia felt that the breakfast was soo delicious that she could never forget…

On the second day, after freshening up and having their breakfast, Xiao Li and Shen Yi headed out to visit the nearby city and the places they were familiar with.

By the time they arrived home, it was almost mid-night.. The moment Xiao Li opened the villa door and stepped inside, she heard a loud bang, scaring her soul out of her body.
