My Beloved

"…What if my brother falls for her? What will happen to Mian then?" Han Luo was panicking. She was truly afraid that her friend's feelings would be hurt beyond reversal.

"Is that what you are worried about? Your faith in your brother is so low. Ming will be hurt if he finds out," Beth commented.

Upon hearing her voice, everyone turned toward the door. Beth and Zheng Mian came to the back stage to find out what was going on.

Han Luo didn't know how to face them, especially Zheng Mian after what she just said. "Beth, Mian…" her voice came out weak.

"It's okay, Luo. You are not at fault here. Where is that useless brat, huh? Just wait till I get him. I'll murder him at once." Zheng Mian looked like she was super pissed. She was akin to an atom bomb that was going to explode at any given moment now. If Han Sheng Ming fell under her hands, he would be dead for sure.

'May Lord Buddha be with Sheng Ming,' everyone prayed in unison.

Even so, they couldn't blame Zheng Mian for getting angry. She had every right to get mad. If Han Sheng Ming stopped his father and told him that he was in a relationship, Elder Tang would be mad and things would be a bit messy. Nonetheless, it would have been solved quickly.

However, he did nothing. He just went onto the stage obediently and put the ring on a girl's finger he never knew. Even after the engagement, he had the chance to say something to his father but he just stared at him dumbly.

Han Luo slapped her forehead. 'Big brother Ming, when will you grow up?'

-----------------------

Han Sheng Ming was dragged away by Tang Mei. At first, he didn't react but soon he came back to his senses and panicked. "Hey, hey, where are you taking me? Let me go this instant!"

"Please come with me," Tang Mei gently spoke.

Upon hearing her gentle voice, Han Sheng Ming stopped struggling. He didn't want to use force on a weak woman. He said, "Listen, I don't think I can marry you. I have a girlfriend and I want to get married to her."

Tang Mei's voice became softer. "You do? That's so heartbreaking. Why didn't you tell us that sooner? This way, at least we would have avoided getting engaged to each other."

Han Sheng Ming became restless. He apologized quickly, "Ahhh… I'm so sorry. I didn't know what to do." With his free hand, he scratched his head.

"You didn't know what to do…" Tang Mei chuckled in a low tone. "Or you didn't want to do it?"

"Ehh?" Han Sheng Ming blinked. It seemed like the air around Tang Mei suddenly changed. Her aura in particular. It gave him chills.

Tang Mei took him to the nearby room and locked it. It was a dressing room. After that, she pushed him toward the dressing table and put her slender leg on the dressing table, cornering him efficiently.

She spoke like an angry predator, "How dare you talk to me like that? Who do you think you are? You have a girlfriend and yet you got engaged to another woman? Don't you know how to use this mouth of yours then? Or is it your brain that has some problem?"

"Eek!" Han Sheng Ming flinched. He was dumbfounded for the second time. He did not think a quiet, shy girl would suddenly turn into a beast.

Tang Mei glared at him ferociously and berated, "You couldn't even say no to something you didn't want to do. You call yourself a man? Shame on you! Even women these days have lots of guts. Just thinking how to hurt your girlfriend will be after hearing the news, is making me hella upset."

Only then Han Sheng Ming remembered that Zheng Mian was present when he put the ring on Tang Mei's finger. His face became pale. "Mian… she is here…."

Tang Mei frowned. "Mian? You mean that's your girlfriend?" Her face was turning red in rage. "You son of a b*tch just got engaged to me in front of your girlfriend. Shoot! I thought you were worse than those trashy boyfriends but to think you are the worst type of boyfriend out there makes me vomit. Listen well, I will never get married to you. I will not marry until I find the right man for myself. No one ever controlled my life and I won't let them have the pleasure of it in the future either."

She pulled out a hairpin and flicked it toward him swiftly. Han Sheng Ming shut his eyes as he thought one of his eyes was a goner but the sharp hairpin brushed past his face by a few millimeters and lodged itself in the mirror. The mirror broke instantly and the glass shattered into multiple pieces.

Han Sheng Ming's face was cut slightly but Tang Mei didn't give a damn. She was staring at him as if he was some kind of bug. "If you have any guts left, go and tell your father that you cannot get married to me. Well, I doubt you will do it. You are just a coward."

After venting her anger, she opened the closet and got some clothes that were hanging there. She previously left them here. She took off her clothes and underneath there were a sleeveless green top and black shorts.

She kicked her Cheongsam somewhere. After that, she wore the black jacket that she took from the closet just now. Then, she tied her hair into a ponytail and grabbed her helmet.

After she was done, she turned around and left the room, leaving the scared Han Sheng Ming alone. Outside the room, she met Zheng Mian, Han Luo, and Beth. She only knew Han Luo and stopped to talk to her.

Han Luo, Beth, and Zheng Mian were stunned at the reformation of the traditional girl.. It was a complete transformation and they had a hard time recognizing her.
