No Where To Run: Trapped With My Archenemy - Chapter 77

UNEDITED – PLEASE WAIT FOR 1 HOUR

“Master, please don’t joke.”

“I’m not joking..It would be better if we sleep in the-”

“You said you like someone…you said that nobody else matters to you…then why are you asking me such a thing?”

“It’s my fault.”

“I can understand that people are tends to waver under the situation, but you have some one you like…please stay away from adultery, master. It won’t bring you any good.”

“Adultery? Miss, please listen to me first.”

“Do you remember what I said when you started working here?”

“You will take care of my responsibility.”

“Yes, so listen to me and sleep with me.”

“You said that you don’t have any ulterior motives.”

“You are hurt, that’s why I am asking you to sleep in the same room?”

“Same room?”

“Hmmm, my room is quite big.

“Even if it’s a big room, I am not sleeping on the same bed as you.”

“Who said about sleeping on the same bed? I am just worried about you. It’s the first time your staying in this mansion and yet you got yourself into two accidents. It’s bit difficult for me to leave you alone tonight.”

You are not curious about the other scars?”

“You have told me that life wasn’t easy for you.”

“I asked someone to do it.”

“Why?”

“Beautiful ones were sent to courtesan houses, ugly ones were sent to brothels and scarred ones, they were sold as slaves.”

“Slave market in this country? When did this happen?”

“A couple of years ago. I was supposed to be sent to a brothel, but someone took a liking in me and approached the house with a huge offer.”

“Did it make any difference?”

“I asked him to kill me but he just made a laceration to scare off the buyer.”

“Him?”

“The one whom I mentioned earlier.”

“The one whom you like?”

“I’m indebted to him.”-

“He was barely eighteen when I met him for the first time. The youngest son of a rich family. He was having the college entrance when he got to know that they were selling me off to an old man. He came and tried to stop them…took many hits for me…His

“It’s another world, master. oo, dark and gore for people like you.”

”

“I’m sorry you had to go through such a painful ordeal.”Show me then.”

“Master, how can I?”

“Then let’s go to the hospital.”

“I can’t go to the hospital.”

“Why?”

“It’s just a scratch. I just need to put some antibiotics into it.”

How are you going to apply antibiotic?

I’m flexible, I can reach. Ahhh…”

“Are you crazy?”

The cold wintry breeze blew over the wisteria gardens entered the guest room where Wan Yi Jun and Ming Yue were immersed in an intense argument about whether to visit the hospital or not.

Ming Yue, who had no proper identity proof or insurance papers, refused to go to the hospital no matter how many times Wan Yi Jun tried to persuade her. However, Wan Yi Jun, who got fed up with her denial insisted on either calling a doctor home or letting him check whether she is telling the truth or not.

“Show me your wounds.” He demanded while standing before Ming Yue, like a huge mountain that overshadowed her tiny figure under his towering and majestic stature.

“Master, how can I do that? You are my master, and I’m just a maid…and how can…” Ming Yue was running out of excuses as well as her patience before an adamant man, hellbound on treating her wounds.

“Then I assume that obeying your master is the most important thing?” Wan Yi Jun rebutted in the same tone when he felt that Ming Yue was playing the “status” card to stay away from him. Of course, he wasn’t fond of their distinction as master and maid, even hearing the word started to irk him for some reason. But at this moment, he didn’t hesitate to use his authority over her.

“Then let’s go to the hospital.” Wan Yi Jun wrapped his arms over his chest and asked her once again,

“I can’t go to the hospital.”

“Why?”

“It’s just a scratch, master. I just have to put some disinfectant on it and I’m good to go.” Ming Yue gave a vague reply and tried to escape the awkward situation. Going to the hospital with proper documents or letting Wan Yi Jun check out her wounds- which one is most dangerous?

“Okay. But how are you going to disinfect the wounds on your back without anyone’s help? Wan Yi Jun agreed only to argue with a much more difficult question. He has noticed that Ming Yue has changed the bandage on her palm, but leaving the other wounds untreated only meant one thing- Her arms didn’t reach the wounds.

“I’m flexible, master. Also, my arms are long enough to touch… Ahhh…” Ming Yue, who tried to demonstrate her flexibility by reaching out for her back, let out a wail as soon as she raised her arms. Only when she felt a throbbing pain raising from her back side, she realized that tree branch has hit her pretty hard, not to mention that she fell onto the floor too.

“Are you crazy?”

“Either let’s go to a hospital or let me bandage it for you.”

“Master, why are you putting me in this terrible situation. Didn’t I say that it’s okay?”

“Didn’t I also say that I will take care of your full responsibility.”

“But this is my body, my responsibility.”

“Are you worried that I might misbehave with you since it’s just two of us?”

“Miss Ming, I am sorry that If I give off a pervert vibe, but you are hurt, it is not just a scratch, but something serious. Did you see the blood trail, and do you have any idea how much blood must have been lost by now? No matter how well you clean this house and compound, it is more or less a jungle. One nasty microbial infection and you are done.”

“I have someone I like…”

“What?”

“I’m planning to get married one day…you can’t take-”

“I too have someone I like, other than that girl, I have no interest in a woman in general. I can assure you that I don’t have any ulterior motives towards you.”

If you feel that I’m taking advantage of the situation and harassing you, go ahead and report me to the police or labour office.

“You think I can afford to lead a legal case against you, master. No never.”

“What should I do to make you trust me?”

“You should believe me when I say I’m alright?”

“Ahhh.”

“See, this is what I said. Let’s check your wounds and If it is something trivial, both of us can sleep without any worries. Or else let me try to call a doctor here since you refuse to go to the hospital.”

“Hmm.”

“Hmm?”

“You can.”

“I can? What?”

“You can take a look.”

“Thanks for trusting me. Let me get the first aid box.”

“What are you doing, master? You can’t just do that.”

“Sorry, sorry…That’s how we normally do it.”

“Look over there,”

“Yes, sure.”

“You can look now.

“There is one minor wound and few scratches….and a bruise. How did you get a bruise?”

“The tree branch hit me slightly.”

“This is not going to end well, gets dressed quickly and let’s get checked. What if you broke some bones?”

Once Ming Yue agreed to move to the guest room on the first floor, Wan Yi Jun himself picked up her suitcase and climbed the stairs, burdening the girl with his generosity.

Watching his actions, she really felt like cursing the moment when she decided to postpone avenging her biggest enemy before anything.

She could have targetted Wan Yi Jun the very first moment she landed on Imperial. However, her foolish mind convinced her to keep her best target for the last. She wanted him to torture before she ruins him,

But what the hell is happening right now? Instead of making him regret his actions and pay for whatever he did in the past, she is one who got into a pickle of a situation.

Why can’t this man stop acting like he owes some huge favour towards her and stops treating her nice?

“Don’t fall for his tricks, don’t fall for his tricks,” Ming Yue chanted in her mind as she followed Wan Yi Jun to the guest room that was right opposite his bedroom.

Years ago, when they all lived together in Wisteria gardens, Wan Yi Jun never allowed anyone to stay anywhere close to his room. Even when there were some guests, they were always given other rooms in the other end of the corridor so that no one shall disturb the hot-tempered young master of Wan family.

Wan Yi Jun opened the door and stepped inside the guest room which was designed in a minimalist yet cosy design.

“Keep your phone next to you. If you hear something unusual, call me right away.” Wan Yi Jun reminded her before leaving the room. Since he had finally found peace of mind after seeing Ming Yue curiously checking out the room, it was better to leave, and let her take rest.

“Yes, master.” Ming Yue nodded in agreement and walked towards the door,

“Please sleep well, master.”

“You too,” He gave a gentle bow before leaving her alone,

Once Wan Yi Jun went inside his room, Ming Yue locked the door and took a deep breath to calm her agitated mind.

Thankfully, there are no visible injuries on her body. She quickly washed her hands and took out the black eye lenses.

While standing in front of the cabinet mirror, Ming Yue stared at the face that reflected in the mirror.

The pitch-black hair that cascaded over her shoulders, like a waterfall, created a stark contrast on her bare skin.

It took her quite a few tries to turn her silver hair into a dark shade as it looks right now.

The pair of her odd eyes and her silver hair, the moment Wan Yi Jun sees any of it, it’s over for her.

“Don’t think too much, just focus on your goal.” She reminded herself and walked in the direction of the bathroom.

Maybe a warm shower and a sleeping pill might help her to get over the awkwardness of spending the night in Wisteria gardens after a long time.

After removing her t-shirt, she moved closer to the cabinet in the bathroom.
