Shui\'s expression turned slightly solemn. "Well…"

Jin slightly tilted his head seeing her hesitation.

"It was around two years ago when Xiao came to me for help."

"Why would Kang Yuze\'s sister need your help?" He frowned.

She scratched her chin, trying to think where to start the story. Find more chapters on m_v l|e-NovelBin.net

"To help Alix and help her mend her personality change."

He blinked twice, more curious than before.

"Xiao thinks that the way Alix acted before, including the time in Guangzhou where she tried to splash water at me or cursed at me for trying to get close to Kang Yuze - she says that Alix wasn\'t like this before."

"Maybe, but love changes people, sometimes for the worse."

Shui shook her head. "It can but Xiao is sure that it\'s not relevant in Alix\'s case. Alix was a bright and confident woman before and she had her own mind. She was not the type of person to cling onto a man and keep chasing after him by sacrificing her self-esteem."

Jin recalled the couple of times he talked to Alix and he admitted that the latter conjecture fitted the most with her. But equally was the truth that he had seen her acting crazy and unreasonable before.

"So?"

"So Xiao thinks that something caused her personality to slowly change over time especially after her breakup with Kang Yuze. As more time passed, she grew more unreasonable and stalkerish which Xiao knows for sure is not her personality at all. Alix wasn\'t the begging type."

Jin could now vouch that Alix didn\'t fit to be in that category at all. There was something mysterious about her. He didn\'t feel that way in the past but he believed the post coma Alix he was seeing.

"But then how can you help her?"

"Well art therapy can help you tap into your memories in a sublime way. You think you are just drawing stuff but every drawing of yours represents a part of your subconscious mind. She wanted me to mentally help her fill the gaps between her changed selves. When did it really start? What caused it to start? Why was she doing things that didn\'t fit her personality?"

"I see…" he arched his brow thoughtfully. "The reason for wanting your help makes sense. But I don\'t get how Ren Mui could be involved. I mean judging by today\'s incident, she really doesn\'t seem so intelligent in crafting evil plots," he dryly said.

"I can believe that she might have something to do with her actual accident that led her into a coma. But something like doing slow poisoning…? I mean we are talking about someone\'s basic personality. I believe that cannot be altered so easily."

Shui nodded. "I shared the same thoughts. And that\'s where the story ends because I feel there is something more that Xiao isn\'t telling me. Or she is hesitating very much."

He frowned. "Is she that afraid of Ren Mui? She looks like a bug to me."

Her brow twitched. "Compared to the mighty Liu family, the general population can only look like bugs to you."

He coughed.

"I don\'t think she is afraid of Ren Mui. But there is definitely something she is hiding from me. Plus it gets even more confusing because Alix told me that she had actually rejected Kang Yuze."

His eyes widened. "Seriously?"

"Yup. The time we were at the Liu villa. If what she says is true then it doesn\'t make even more sense for her to act the way she did. And now she is suddenly back to how Xiao thinks she should have always been."

"This Kang Xiao…" he said slowly, "feels awfully concerned about Alix for some reason. More than her real sister. That too after the breakup with her brother."

Shui glanced at him. "You do realize that sis Nuo is on my side, right?"

"..."

"You being her brother doesn\'t mean that she will take your side, especially considering us."

Jin choked hard.

"Xiao and Alix are as close as sis Nuo and I are. It\'s not strange."

"Certainly…" he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.

"That\'s why she is always worried about her. Ren Mui clearly doesn\'t like her."

Jin regained his composure and asked, "Did you learn anything during the time you were giving art therapy lessons?"

Shui sighed. "For a long time, Alix refused to even meet me because she remembered the trip and hated me. Xiao finally managed to coax her in the end. Her drawings do express a lot of confusion. Like…she is helpless. She doesn\'t know what she wants but is still running towards it blindly."

"Strange…" he muttered.

"Seeing Alix now makes me believe that whatever it was affecting her finally washed away when she woke up from the coma. But the question still remains as to what happened to her in the middle?"

By that time, they reached the Han villa and Jin stopped the car in front of the gate. A moment of awkward silence remained.

"I will take my leave…Thanks for dropping me and…for your help back at the hotel too…"

"Are you sure you are okay? I should come with you to drop off till home."

"No, no!" Shui quickly said, "Mom and Dad will definitely sniff out that something went wrong and I don\'t want them to know what happened at the party. It will just worry them unnecessarily."

"Those are valid worries for parents to have."

She frowned. "Don\'t act too grown up."

He shrugged. "I am a handsome twenty-seven years old mature man."

"..."

"Jin! Shui!!!"

They turned and saw Nuo furiously waving her hand at them from a distance. Jin smiled and waved at her from inside the car.

"You came to drop Shui off?" She loudly asked from a distance trotting towards them.

He nodded.

"What did you say? You will also stay the night here? That\'s so awesome!! It will be fun!"

Jin and Shui - "..."
