'Blood… I need blood…' A man mumbled.

The girl ran as fast as she could.

'Give me blood…'

The girl reached a dead end of the alley.

'Oh no…'

The man was slowly approaching her, 'Blood…'

'Go away!'

He pressed her hands against the wall.

'Ahhhhh!'

BANG!

A gunshot sound was heard.

The man disintegrated.

The girl widened her eyes as she stared in shock.

There was a masked man in black keeping his gun.

'Tha-thank you.'

He vanished.

---

The next day.

'Are you okay?' Yatou looked at her.

Guigui nodded, 'I'm just tired.'

'You can tell me if there's anything wrong!'

'I will, thanks Yatou!'

Guigui smiled.

---

Later the day. Cafeteria.

'Again?' Wangzi asked.

Guigui nodded.

Wangzi spoke firmly, 'Don't work in the pub again. It's dangerous.'

'But… I need a job.'

'I told you to work at my house.'

'I don't want… I can't always depend on you.'

'Okay then… Be careful.'

Hebe walked towards Wangzi and Guigui.

'Wangzi, I've something to tell you.' Hebe walked away.

'I'll be right back.' Wangzi promised.

Guigui nodded.

Wangzi followed behind Hebe.

'Why does Hebe always look for Wangzi… Doesn't she know that we two are together?' Guigui pouted.

---

Water Fountain.

'Leave that girl.' Hebe spoke.

'I don't want.'

'If you don't leave her, she'll be constantly targeted by other clans.'

'I'll protect her.'

'You can't even control your blood thirst, how do you want to protect her?'

'Sis, I can do it. Give me more time.'

'She was almost killed yesterday, and what were you doing?!'

Wangzi didn't have anything to rebut.

'You were locked in your room controlling your thirst…'

'I can do it… Trust me.'

'Do you want to end up her blood as well?' Hebe questioned.

Wangzi looked down and clenched his fists.

Hebe walked away.

---

Cafeteria.

'I shall go look for him!' Guigui stood up and walked towards the door.

Suddenly the door opened.

'Ahhh!' She slipped and fell.

A strong pair of arms held her waist and brought her closer.

She looked at his eyes, 'Thanks Aaron…'

They both separated.

'Geez Gui, you're still as blur as before.' Aaron smiled and walked away.

'Aaron…'

Guigui's eyes followed Aaron's back as he approached a table of guys.

'Guigui.'

Guigui turned around and saw Wangzi in front of her.

'You're done with Hebe? Let's go.' Guigui smiled and cling onto Wangzi's shoulder.

Wangzi moved his arm away.

'Wangzi?'

'Let's go.' Wangzi walked out of the cafeteria with Guigui following behind.

Aaron saw that and thought to himself.

---

Class 102.

'Don't you want to leave together?' Guigui asked.

'I've something on, I'll contact you later.' Wangzi replied coldly and walked out of the classroom.

'Are you and Wangzi okay?' Yatou walked towards Guigui.

'I don't know… Did I do anything wrong?' Guigui looked down.

---

At night. On the way to Guigui's apartment.

'Did I do anything wrong?' Guigui sobbed.

Wangzi smiled and grabbed Guigui's hand, 'You're perfectly good. Don't worry.'

'What happened this afternoon? Why were you so cold to me?' Tears began to flow down Guigui's cheeks.

Wangzi pulled Guigui into his embrace, 'I'm sorry.'

---

Rain Mansion.

Wangzi stepped into the living room.

'I'll overcome my thirst, I'll protect her.' Wangzi decided.

Hebe nodded.

Without saying a word, she walked up the stairs.
