Chapter 57
(Unedited)
…
When Ma Mian was in her high school before she and Yun Bai has met again, she was very low-key and would always wear that large glasses of hers. She did not incur any unnecessary attention towards her and was always alone in one corner.
Her grades were average as she desires them to be as such and has never gotten anything worth other's attention.
However, one day she saw the school beauty being assaulted by a group of students. The young woman did not have any courage to fight against these bullies and was frozen on the spot with tears in her eyes.
For some unknown reason, something in her mind suddenly snapped as she put on her hood to hide her face and removes her glasses then charges towards those bullies. She uses her bag as a weapon, and due to the books in her bag, some of them fell to the ground. Then she grabbed the school beauty's dainty hands and the two escaped the encirclement.
The school beauty thanked her and invited Ma Mian to her house to thank her.
When the two arrived in her home, Ma Mian met her older brother who has the same good feature as the school beauty.
The older brother's name is Choi Hao, the older brother of Choi Mei, the school beauty.
That was the start of the friendship and also the introduction of Martial Arts in the simple life of Ma Mian. But the friendship did not last that long because one day, the Choi family decided to transfer to another city.
The reason for this is because of the trouble that people are causing Choi Mei. Choi Hao fought back and injured one of the bullies. And because of the background of that person, the Choi family did not have a choice but to leave to prevent attracting any trouble.
Ma Mian could not forget her friend with the Choi siblings and even in college they still have constant communication.
Only, when Choi Mei went to another country for her doctorate degree and Choi Hao's mysterious job that the three lost communication.
But right now, she is looking at that familiar figure outside of the restaurant.
The more she looks at that handsome figure the more she became sure that it is really Choi Hao.
On the side, Yu Qi has also noticed the accident and knew that the guy who was hit was the person who threatened them a while ago.
"Humph… That's what he gets for being too arrogant… But hopefully, he is not hurt that badly." Yu Qi mocked but still showed concern in her eyes.
"I think he is fine… Do you want to go and see what is happening?" Ma Mian said with a slight smile on her face.
Yu Qi wanted to say something but Ma Mian has already left her seat and walked out of the door.
When outside, Ma Mian could see many thugs on the ground some are unconscious and others are groaning in pain.
She did not want to pay attention to these people as her figure passes through them and directly walks outside.
Yu Bai who is sitting calmly on one of the vacant tables while looking at the boss of the thugs kneeling on the ground noticed her running outside.
He showed a hint of concern as he stood up.
"Tell the Song family that Mr. Yu will be visiting them and will get answers for the unbridled action of their youngest son." Yu Bai said as he left without looking at the thugs on the ground.
Those who have dinned in this restaurant were all afraid and dare not look at the tall figure. Some women who saw his gallant yet proud figure have a look of awe and admiration in their eyes.
They saw how this man single-handedly takes down those thugs without causing too much of a mess in the restaurant. And in their eyes, he looks like some kind of a hero.
Meanwhile, Yu Qi saw the figure of Yu Bai and the thugs on the ground which made her have a look of shock in her expression. When she saw him going out, she followed suit.
Ma Mian slowly approached the handsome man wearing a black leather jacket while on the phone.
When she was standing behind the young man she hesitantly called out.
"Choi Hao… is that you?" she said with an uncertain tone.
When the man heard her voice, he suddenly turns around. When their eyes met, Choi Hao's expression changes from annoyance to happiness. Who would have known that he would meet someone whom he wanted to meet for a long time?
"Mian? Little Mian, is that you?" he said with a happy expression on his handsome face.
"It really is you!" Ma Mian said in happiness as she suddenly jumps in his embrace like a little girl.
Choi Hao has always treated his sister like this. And when he has gotten close to Ma Mian, he also treated her as his sister and likes to hug her.
So this thing is normal between them.
Who would have known that this action was seen by Yu Bai who has followed Ma Mian out of the restaurant?
With his burning gaze, Yu Bai could not help but glare at the handsome young man hugging his wife. He truly wanted to rush towards the two and give that guy a taste of his fist.
"Oh… it seems that Ma Mian is close to that person. Hmm… He is not that bad…" Yu Qi who is following behind Yu Bai blurted while looking at Ma Mian and the man in surprise.
Before she could notice it, Yu Bai has already stepped forward with his eyes filled with jealousy. He arrives next to the two and suddenly grabbed Ma Mian's hand and separated the two.
"Why would you cling to a stranger?" Yu Bai said in an angry tone.
Ma Mian was surprised as she did not expect someone to suddenly get angry with her at this time.
But before she could react, she noticed that the two men are looking at each other with fierce eyes. Then suddenly, the sound of an ambulance came followed by some police cars.
Yu Bai noticed this and sneered. He could not help but feel really jealous right now and wanted to grab his wife and hug her. She is his wife and no one should hug her especially in front of him.

…
The accident was settled by the police and they even take care of the bad guys inside the restaurant. After an investigation and knowing that these people were about to commit a crime, the police praised Choi Hao instead for stopping the criminal.
However, the case is a bit sensitive as it involves three powers, the military, the Song family, and the Jiaolong corporation. The police are out of their wits with this case and it soon escalated to the higher-ups.
Meanwhile, right at this moment, Choi Hao and Ma Mian are talking while she was full of laughter. On the side, Yu Qi and Yu Bai are just looking at the two as if they were third… and fourth wheels.
"Hahaha… Big Brother Hao is too funny; you never really changed after all these years." Ma Mian said while patting Choi Hao's hands.
Yu Bai who saw this grips the cup in his hand tightly. Right now he is already seething in anger and his heart is filled with jealousy.
…
"Hey, you! Unhand my wife!" Yu Bai suddenly said as he stood up and confronts Choi Hao.
Then without saying another word, he suddenly punches Choi Hao to the ground. Yu Bai sneered at the man and turn towards Ma Mian with a victorious face.
But who would have known that she would suddenly run towards Choi Hao and held him up? Then she angrily glares at Yu Bai.
"Why did you hit him?" she shouted.
"I hit him because he is hitting on my wife!" Yu Bai replied while glaring at Choi Hao.
Who would have known that Choi Hao would suddenly show a crafty smile on his face while smirking at Yu Bai?
"What? What are you saying? I am not your wife?" Ma Mian suddenly shouted.
"You… How could you say that? You are nothing to me but a stranger! You're just some random stranger that I met. How dare you claim me as your wife?" Ma Mian added with an angry glare.
"Ma Mian! I will not let you go! You are only mine and mine alone!" Yu Bai retorted with a shout.
"Mr. Yun!!!" Ma Mian shouted.
"Mr. Yun... Mr. Yun… Mr. Yun!"
…
Yu Bai suddenly feels someone patting his hands, when he lifted his head he saw Yu Qi. He was able to regain from his stupor. He was a bit angry and dissatisfied at Ma Mian right now.
"Just you wait! When you get home tonight, I will surely punish you…" he thought while gritting his teeth.
The two talked for a while but Yu Qi and Yu Bai did not leave. They just stayed there waiting and would casually walk every now and then.
Yu Bai would not leave because he did not want to leave his wife to that man. Meanwhile, Yu Qi is only here to spend more time with Yu Bai. Looking at that handsome face and his reactions made her truly admire the guy.
He is clearly jealous but he is able to hold it in with such coolness and a somewhat pitiful look. Yu Qi's heartstrings are touched and she wanted to comfort the guy.
"Ma Mian, thank you…" she thought as she appreciated Ma Mian that she is able to discover this side of Mr. Yun.
Not long later, Ma Mian and Choi Hao decided to leave and were a bit stunned to see that Yu Qi and the man named Mr. Yun Hai is still there. They were too immersed in reminiscing the past that they did not notice that there are still people waiting on the side.
"Yu Qi, I'm sorry…" Ma Mian said while having an apologetic look on her face.
"Sigh… It's okay." Yu Qi said with a wink.
Ma Mian did not know what she means but was happy that Yu Qi was not annoyed. But when she noticed the handsome man on the side, she frowned. She did not know why he stayed but she is not inclined to talk to the guy.
In her eyes, he is a bit overbearing and has the aura of authority which she feels a bit of a dislike. Though Ma Mian is grateful for saving her and for helping her, she still could not make herself like the guy.
The reason for this is because of her deep prejudice and hatred against her father who left her and her mother.
"Let's go!" Ma Mian said while grabbing Yu Qi's arms.
"Do you have a car? I can send you back…" Choi Hao suddenly offered.
"No I will send them back, I was the one who invited them." Yu Bai suddenly said with a cold glare towards the guy.
Choi Hao noticed this and knew that this guy does not like him for some reason.
"No, I think I could send them back Mr. Yun, Ma Mian is my friend…"
"I think it is right that I should be the one to send them back Mr. Choi. I invited them to dinner anyway."
The two began to take a step forward to face each other.
"Ma Mian, I think they are going to fight." Yu Qi timidly said with a frown.
"Alright, stop it you two… Yu Qi and I will leave on our own and you guys leave too, okay?" Ma Mian said as she grabbed Yu Qi's arms and left the restaurant they are in.
The three went their separate ways.
Meanwhile, Yu Bai was a bit angry as he speedily drove back home. He truly wanted to teach that wife of his a lesson. How dare she flirt with another man?
Meanwhile, when Ma Mian sent Yu Qi back to her apartment, someone suddenly called her.
"Yu Bai?" she muttered.
"Who?" Yu Qi asked with confusion.
"Oh, nothing… wait I'll answer the call." Ma Mian said as she walks to the corridor.
"Hello, Bai… Are you home already? Umn… I'm sorry I still could not go home now. I'll be staying with Yu Qi tonight as we will have another shooting early tomorrow." Ma Mian lied through her teeth.
In truth, she just wanted to go home as Ma Liling, she wanted to sleep without worry. The last time was a bit relaxing for her as she did not have to hide and be worried about anything at all.
"WHAT?... I mean what do you mean, Honey?… can you…" Yu Bai almost smashed the phone on the floor upon hearing her but forces himself to calm down.
He is now truly angered and enraged, but still, he needed to calm down. This is just a challenge to their relationship; he knows that he could overcome it.
"I'm sorry, Bai… it just for my work, okay? Please understand… In fact, I missed you already, but I still got to do my job." she said with an apologetic tone.
Upon hearing this, Yu Bai slumped to the sofa with a helpless expression.
…
He was not able to move and just stared at the window while holding his phone. He did not know how long he was in that position, but then suddenly the door rang.
This woke him up from his stupor and he slowly rose up and walks to the door. He slowly opens it and lo and behold, a beautiful angel is standing outside the door wearing a casual gray loose T-shirt and dark blue jeans with a large backpack.
"Hello!" Ma Liling greeted with a beautiful smile.
