Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

That night, Ruo Hua returned to Gao Wei's room as everything of her's was moved into his room since she was now his legal wife in the eyes of everyone and so they had to put up a lot of performance.

Gao Wei after getting married forgot he just got a wife and changed his shirt in his room as Ruo Hua peeked into the room catching him without his shirt exposing his chiseled torso which made him even more attractive. Not only did he have the looks, he had everything else a woman asks for.

"Sorry. I forgot you also live here now." He apologized as she smiled coming out of the walk-in-closet in her negligee which was revealing making him look away.

"It's okay if you want to sleep shirtless. I don't mind." She stated making Gao Wei turn to her as she covered his mouth with her hand making him look down at her as her body was so close to his. She pointed at the door as a shadow kept lingering outside.

"Play along." She whispered into his ears as he placed his hands around her waist pulling her closer startling her.

"Are you sure? I don't want you to feel uncomfortable on our first night." He stated pushing her onto the bed as he sat next to her waiting for Wei Tian to go away before Ruo Hua got away from him.

"I apologize. We just needed to work together so she could leave. You go ahead and sleep, I'm going to the balcony for a bit." She informed him before walking away as he watched her leave.

{How could she possibly be you? My Song Luo was never this bold. You're in everyway different from her.}

Ruo Hua stood at the balcony starring at the moon not turning even once to look at Gao Wei.

{Sister, dont worry. I won't get close to your man and will never cross my line with him. I'll help you seek revenge.}

The next day before Gao Wei could leave for work, Ruo Hua stopped him in front of everyone as they were still in the Gao family mansion pulling him away.

"Young people nowadays, am I right?" One of his uncles jokingly stated making them all laugh except his mother and Wei Tian.

"Everyone keeps telling me I look like your ex. Since she was also a star, you think it's right for me to go before everyone?" She asked making him take her hands before taking in a deep breath.

"You two might look alike but there's a huge difference between you two. Hurry and get dressed. I'll see you at the studio." He assured her before leaving as Ruo Hua glanced at Wei Tian starring at her from the dinning table making her shrug as she walked away to her room. Just as she finished getting dressed and ready to leave, Wei Tian barged into the room locking the door from the inside.

"Don't think because you have the looks of his ex wife and stay in this room now makes you the lady of the Gao family." She started making Ruo Hua sigh as she approached her.

"You're the one I'm supposed to fear? Don't bore me already. And you are right, the lady of this house is always and will always be Song Luo. You will never fit that position. You became a rapper to get close to Gao Wei, didn't you? You just did everything you could but it never worked out. In a matter of three weeks, my songs will make this company rise to its former glory and beyond. Something you could never do." Ruo Hua finished pushing her aside as she walked out of the room.

"Don't say I didn't warn you. You just had it coming." She whispered to herself before leaving the room as well.

Three weeks later, Ruo Hua sat at a live TV show being aired on TV.

"Ruo Hua, oh my God, you've made it big ever since you joined Star Records. Even Wei Tian couldn't make it big like you have. You look like Song Luo and you've made Star Records bigger than she did." The TV host stated as Ruo Hua gave her a cold glare making her break out in cold sweat.

"I don't like being compared to her. She was her own person and I could never replace her or do what she did. Just because I look like her and even got married to her husband as well doesn't mean anything at all and I don't want any speculations about her and I either. She's dead and gone and I request that people let her rest in peace." Ruo Hua stated leaving the show as she took off the microphone on her ignoring the director of the show who tried to stop her. Just as she opened the door she bumped into Gao Wei who was waiting for her outside.

"What are you doing here? I thought you weren't gonna come." She asked walking away as he held her back.

"Come with me." He ordered before leaving as Ruo Hua followed him adamantly back to the Gao mansion. But they didn't go to his room but instead another room which had been locked since she came into the house. Gao Wei locked the door after she entered as Ruo Hua looked around seeing nothing but stuff which belonged to Song Luo and pictures of her and a piano in the room.

"You play the piano?" She asked making him chuckle as she turned to him.

"Not since she died. I can't bring myself to play. The force of music in me seems to have disappeared. We used to perform together, she would sing while I played the piano. We were gold itself. Until she was taken away from me. I shouldn't have left her be and when I did, before I could rush over to her, there was nothing I could do__" he trailed off looking at the picture of Song Luo as tears fell down his cheeks.

"I held her in my arms tightly right there. She didn't want me to leave or do anything else. I still see her blood on my hands everytime I close my hands. At that moment the only thing she said was not to take revenge at any cost. Thinking back now, it feels as though she wasn't only addressing me." He finished as Ruo Hua took his hands cleaning the tears off his face making him look at her.

"I feel sorry for both of you. You think it's right that she made that request not to seek revenge. She didn't deserve to die." She stated letting go off his hands when suddenly Gao Wei turned her over hugging her tightly leaving her shocked.

"Gao Wei, come to your senses. I'm not Song Luo." She stated making him let go as he took a closer look before stepping away.

"I'm sorry. I got confused for a moment there." He apologized before leaving the room as Ruo Hua starred at the picture of Ruo Lin.

"This doesnt change anything Ruo Lin. You don't get to take the fall for me and ask me not to seek revenge. Everyone who was involved in this will have to pay." She murmured to herself before leaving the room.

The next night, Wei Tian visited a club were drugs and smoke filled the air as she walked straight up to an intoxicated man surrounded by women.

"Wei Tian, what brings you here? You haven't been here since I killed Ruo Hua." He stated as she splashed a glass of scotch on him waking him up a bit as he pushed the women away.

"What problem do you have now? Come here beautiful__" He trailed off getting up as he approached her.

"Which man do you need to satisfy you tonight? I can be your personal attendant for the night as well." He commented as she pushed him away showing him a picture of Ruo Hua on her phone as he threw it away.

"Why do you still show me the picture of that blasted woman? She's dead and gone." He stated as Wei Tian slapped him across the face.

"The person I had you kill back then was Song Luo. This is Ruo Hua." She stated making him fully awaken as he grabbed her neck choking her that instant.

"What did you just say? You're joking right. The person I killed back then was definitely Ruo Hua not Song Li or whoever you mentioned." He stated as Wei Tian forcefully pushed him away catching her breath.

"Back then you were drunk when I showed you the picture. You instantly accepted to kill her. She was Song Luo, Gao Wei's wife." She added still choking as she grabbed a glass of whiskey to calm herself down as he turned to her shocked.

"Did you just say Song Luo?" He asked making her push him away.

"Why are you acting so weird? What's so special about that deceased person?" She asked as four men rushed in right away.
