Episode 2 Fever

It started raining and Li Xiu was crying on the street not knowing what to do.

Li Xiu looked very depressed. She decided to go to her best friend, Yue Jun’s house.

As she was walking to her friend’s house, she kept on thinking about her family.

Thinking if she could go back in time and rescue her family. But she knew that what happened couldn’t change. She had to take care of herself now that it was just her. So she decided to get back what originally belonged to her family's back from Zhang Wei.

When Li Xiu arrived at her friend’s house, she was soaking wet.

Li Xiu presses the doorbell, “Ding Dong, Ding Dong,”

“Who the hell is ringing the doorbell in the middle of the night?” thought Yue Jun

Yue Jun then grabbed a bat and went to see who it was. ”Li Xiu? What’s she doing here? Why is she soaking wet?”. She quickly opens the door to ask what happened.

“ Yue…….Jun”. Li Xiu collapses on the ground before she could explain what happened. “Li Xiu what happened to you?! Wake up, Wake up!”

Yue Jun slaps on Li Xiu’s face to try and wake her up. After that didn’t work, she dragged her to the living room. She realizes that Li Xiu was burning up. She places a hot cloth on her forehead and checks her fever with a thermometer.

Early in the morning, Li Xiu wakes up, feeling perfectly fine. She walks towards the dining room where Yue Jun was eating her breakfast. “Hey, Li Xiu, you okay now? Has your fever gone down?”  Yue Jun asked.

 “ Yeah, I’m okay,” Li Xiu said in a low and lifeless voice.

“ Yo, what’s up with you? What happened last night? If something is bothering you, tell me Li Xiu.” says Yue Jun.

Li Xiu starts to cry. “ Yue Jun, my parents and my sister……died. Now Zhang Wei took over everything that belonged to the MY family. I couldn't believe that he would betray my sister and my family.” said Li Xiu. “ Here here, don’t cry, everything will be ok. I’m here for you.” Yue Jun tries to comfort Li Xiu.

Li Xiu told Yue Jun the whole story of what happened.  “ Yue Jun, can you tell me a job that pays a lot of money? I want to make enough money to go to country D so I could graduate from the top university. I want to use my knowledge and beauty to take back everything that Zhang Wei stole from my family.”

“Sure, when I find a good job, I’ll tell you. But make sure you take care of yourself and if you need anything, I’ll be here, okay?”

“ Thank you so much Yue Jun. You're the only one I know that I can trust. Anyways, what happened to your ~ boyfriend? Why did you guys break up?”  asks Li Xiu.

“ Well that’s a long story but I’ll tell you.” said Yue Jun.

They both talked about each other’s lives hoping they would keep their smiles that represents their friendship forever.
