Chokes from one's own saliva.

Fan Xifeng straightly went to her room's balcony right after arriving home. From the flashed of memory she had in the office, she was just lying and relaxing on the balcony's white sofa bed, having her tea and stayed there until sunset. After watching the beautiful scenic view of sunset, she stood to get inside her room. That memory only lasted on that scene. No more "follow ups" of anything that happened right after.

Fan Xifeng as of the moment is still lost of what the dream and why she had that dream in the airplane but for whatever and however reason she had it, Fan Xifeng is clear of one thing. That she'll used to as her advantaged to save not only herself, her grandmother, their family's company and probably, of the fiancé, Han Ziwei, who she thought she never met once, but she did when she was very little.

Since she quickly asked for tea from a house maid before going up to be brought in her room, the scene as of currently is almost the same as that flash of memory.

Fan Xifeng waited and waited until the sun sets but nothing strange or different happened. For a fact, she doesn't even know if what strangeness or difference she is really expecting from the moment.

The sun already sets and dusk came. The wind's breeze started to be cold and she could hear the crickets starting to make their noise. Fan Xifeng heaved a sighed before rising up.

Based from the scene on that memory flash, she went to her room after the sunsets. However, Fan Xifeng this time decided to do something a different.

She took slow steps and stopped until she her body touches the marble balustrade of the veranda. She inhaled slowly and deeply she could savor the cool dusk air entered system making her fatigue goes away.

She looked back at the marble round table when her phone atop it rings. It's a default call ringtone. Fan Xifeng frowned.

She walked back and picked her phone however, she missed the call. Her frowned deepened seeing another unknown number. "What the hell." She murmured. She was about to block the number when her phone once again ring. The same unknown number is the caller.

She paused for a second before accepting the call and at the same time, sat back on the sofa bed.

"This is?" She said right away.

".........."

Fan Xifeng waited yet still, no answer. Then she realized, she already changed her number and only sent the new one to those she knew personally!

Fan Xifeng got goosebumps! "Do you know how creepy you are being just from calling me and not talking after I accept it?!" Fan Xifeng said with an attitude.

However, the other line is still silent. Fan Xifeng heaved a loud sigh. "If you're not going to answer, I'll block your numb,"

Fan Xifeng frowned because she wasn't even finished talking when the other line disconnected.

"Oh gosh!!!" She exclaimed in annoyance. "Whoever that person is, I hope whoever that person is, may one chokes with ones own saliva!"

Fan Xifeng once again heaved a sigh before she finally decided to enter her room. 'The unknown number shatters my piece, every time!' She thought.

[On the other hand, on another country, a handsome man just took a huff from indeed choking from his own saliva.]

Fan Xifeng just got on her bed when she heard a knock from outside. She uttered "Come in" and soon, the door opened. Fan Xiaodan went inside, her face beaming. "Dinner."

Fan Xifeng looked at her watched, 6:40. "Isn't this still too early?"

"They're all downstairs. Wanting to hear your first at work kinda' tale." Fan Xiaodan snickered.

"Okay. You can go ahead, I'll follow."

"Nah, Iet's go down together." Fan Xiaodan insisted. "Have you finally decided regarding your engagement?"

Fan Xifeng took a glance towards Fan Xiaodan. "If you're asking about whether or not I chose to be engage, the answer is, I'm indecisive yet. But I must admit that deep inside me wants to try and maybe get to know Han Ziwei. However, if you're asking about whether or not I would wear a disguise, well, not anymore. Who knows what unfortunate events will follow just because of that disguise." Fan Xifeng replied, she felt her body slightly shivered remembering the events from her dream.

She heard Fan Xiaodan "Hmm" and went silent. However, she laughed and said, "What unfortunates events? Maybe your engagement with Han Ziwei would fail but aside from that, I don't think there could be other things."

"Well who knows? Besides, I don't want to disappoint our grandparents and parents. We both know the reason behind it so I guess, it won't hurt to be a sacrificial lamb for our family's legacy and future," Fan Xifeng paused, "Han Ziwei seems to be an exceptional man and businessman so there's nothing else that I lost with this engagement and marriage."

"He is an exceptional man." Fan Xiaodan said with an agreement. "But I hope you don't forget how he acted towards your gift before." She said with an obvious annoyance.

"I know, Xiaodan. I'm considering that as well. But let's give the person the benefit of the doubt. Who knows he's already a changed man. Right?"

Fan Xiaodan once again just "Hmm."

When Fan Xifeng once again looked at her, she saw her eyes fell to her bathroom. "Heard that you're going to have your bathroom moved?" She asked, this time changing the topic.

Fan Xifeng got up to go to the door. "Yeah," Fan Xifeng's line of sight fell on the bathroom, "I felt stoked inside. Maybe bad energy." She laughed.

"I see. You can sleep with me in my room once your room will be under reconstruction." Fan Xiaodan offered excitedly. She was also walking towards the door.

"That's a good idea. But let's see. There's a lot of guest room here in the second floor so I could use one anyway. Besides, you need your privacy and I need mine, it's alright." Fan Xifeng replied while closing her bedroom's door since both of them were already outside.

Fan Xiaodan didn't reply yet Fan Xifeng saw the pout she made. She laugh. "Let's go. The old folks must be waiting long."
