He ordered the five strongest types of drinks just to waste himself even though he knows he becomes weak and always catches a fever every time he has too many drinks.

When he became totally wasted and started making trouble with the other customers, the bartender had no choice but to take his phone to call anyone on his contact list and he ended up dialling Yu Yan's number since she is the last person he contacted to complain about An Ke earlier in the afternoon when he left the office in a fit.

"Hello," Yu Yan answered

"Hi, your friend is drunk in XXX bar, we will really appreciate it if you can come to pick him up as he is causing disruption and he has incurred some damages to us--"

"Hey! who do you think you are!" he shouted in a display of his drunkenness which Yu Yan could hear from the other side.

"I will be there," she responded then she cut the call.

Meanwhile, she was still in Han Chen's arms with a covering over their legs as their lie in the large home cinema with a bowl of popcorn in their middle, they have been in the same position with one feeding the other the popcorn for about two hours now.

"Han Chen,I need to go, I think something is wrong with Li Chen cos I just got a call that he is drunk at a bar which is not like him...at all," she shifted from his embrace with an apologetic look on her face.

"No worries, I will drive you there," he was going to stand up from the seat when she pulled his back to the reclining seat.

"Don't bother, I will drive myself," she stood up from the seat with his eyes fixed on her to insist on driving her but as he was going to open his mouth to insist, she pressed her lips against his then she pulled away with a smile.

"Don't bother saying anything," she broadened her smile then walked past him, he hung his head dissatisfied that she doesn't want him to come with her but he suddenly felt the softness of her lips against his cheek.

"Bye," she muttered then she rushed out of the large room.

It took her a while to get to the bar since it is closer to the hospital, she ran inside the bar only to see him still drinking as the bartender has given up on trying to persuade him, she raised her brows unwilling to believe that the one seating there is Li Chen.

Li Chen is someone that cannot stand more than two cans of beer because of a condition that make him sick with fever if he drinks too much but he has never tried drinking to such an extent so it frightened her to see him in that condition knowing that the sickness that might follow will be very serious....far more then any he has ever had for getting drunk.

"An Ke...you fool," she cursed under her breath, she doesn't need anyone to tell her she is the cause of his plight. She walked up to him then snatched the glass from his hand, he reached for the bottle as an alternative but she dropped it to the ground using a loud shattering noise.

"Get a grip of yourself!" she scolded aloud, drawing the attention of others in the bar.

"Yu Yan....you are here, come sit with me," he gestured towards the seat beside him but she sighed, looking into his eyes she realized that even his drunken state cannot erase the shattered look in his eyes.

She didn't bother to convince him, she took his hand and placed it over her shoulder then she forcefully carried him out of the bar after paying the bar manager for the damages he has caused.

She placed him gently in the back seat then she drove to his apartment, she got to the entrance when she had to input his passcode, she first tried An Ke's birthday but that didnt work, he tried to last four and the first four digits of her number but they also didn't work.

She rubbed her forehead when it suddenly came to her mind that there is another special day that involved An Ke.

She used the date when he first met An Ke and the door opened.

She sighed for the nth time then glanced at his pitiful self.

"Everything about him involved her and yet she pretends not to know," she remarked before carrying him into his apartment then to his bedroom, she went to the kitchen to get him a glass of water but when she returned, she saw him running to the bathroom so she placed the glass by his bedside then followed after him and there she saw him burying his face in the toilet to puke.

She rushed up to him then she knelt beside him and started patting his back, she helped him back to his bed.

Like the good friend she is, she helped him take off his shoes then she unbuttoned his shirt.

She returned to the bathroom to get a bowl of water and a towel then she returned to his bedside.

She wiped his face then she looked around his room, trying to remember where he used to keep his medical kit since the last time she visited his house, she finally found it in a drawer.

She took his temperature and as expected, he has already started having a fever but his body temperature is dangerously high, she freaked out as soon as she saw then she tried to help him up to take him to the hospital.

"What are you doing?" he muttered, he is now a little sober but not enough to understand himself.

"I need to take you to the hospital, your tempera-"

"No...don't,"

Despite his refusal, she tried to lift him up but it just seems too impossible, she gave up at last then she covered him up with the duvet before leaving the bedroom.

"An Ke, this is all her fault...." she took out her phone to call her but just then, she sent her a message, she opened the message only for her frown to deepen.

She just sent her a picture of her and Li Wei in the restaurant and also a pic of him walking in front of her.

She scoffed!

Then dialled her number in a fit of rage knowing there is no way Li Chen will be like that just because she had dinner with a guy.

"Hel-"

"An Ke!" she screamed at the top of her voice, making the other startled.

She was still walking beside Li Wei when Yu Yan called her, she stopped immediately hearing her tone, she would have thought she just shouted her name in excitement for her but....not in this case, she sounds very angry.

"What is it?"

"You can still ask me that question, what did you do to Li Chen?" she queried fiercely.

"...I...I didn't do anything to him, he just suddenly confessed that he has feelings or me so I-"

"So you spoke harshly to him, do you even have any idea of how long he has been secretly loving you, even before we met! he has loved you for so long and yet you hurt him so much, if anything happens to him then you should know you are responsible, if you still have any hint of guilt in you then you had better hurry to his apartment....the passcode is the first day you both met,"

"But-"

She ended the call without giving her any chance to say anything then she returned to his bedroom to check up on him.

To her, he has always been different from the rest in their group, he always keeps what he feels inside of him until he can't take it anymore, he is more like an old man who prefer reading to watching a movie, prefers chess to video games, prefers tea to coffee and he has the habit of giving up what he wants as long as someone he cares about wants it.

He is also the first person he spoke to when she first met them in university and she is the only person he ever pours out his true feelings to.

She held his hand and stroked his hair with a worried look on her face.

"I should have told you to give up instead of persisting, I just can't imagine how much she must have hurt you for you to resort to getting yourself wasted despite knowing the implication," she can't feel all his pain but she could feel a part of it and it makes her tear up for him.

She tucked his hand in the duvet then she stood up to leave before An Ke arrives so she can take responsibility.

Meanwhile, An Ke who had just gotten to the front of her car with Li Wei beside her felt a tremendous amount of guilt in her heart.

From how Yu Yan spoke, she was sure he must have done something drastic and it pained her to even imagine what he must have done....
