Yu Ping was observing from the distant . He knew then, his sister must have a strong place in that man's heart . To stay at the same place, for hours afterward like a statue looking at the same spot his sister disappeared from .
Yu Ping exhaled a long breath and proceeded back to the cruise . Out of all the men his sister could choose, why him? The strict rules of the palace isn't for her . The eyes of the kingdom would watch her every moves, every actions .
The next day, news of Prince Hue Chi's official coronation and engagement were all over the news . The kingdom was restless of how soon the event was happening . Out in the construction site, the men were talking among themselves of news trends and shocking news . The Kingdom's Prince's coronation and engagement announcement was a hot topic .
Yu Ping tried hard to make sure she worked far from them and made sure the crew socialized little with her . Originally, he planned to set on a journey later the night and hopefully bring the spell caster to her and undo the spell, but the news this morning made him uncomfortable leaving her be .
Although Yu Sha overheard the hot topic from the crew when they met up in the morning, she kept her calm as usual . For the rest of the day, she stayed in the canopy that was in the middle point, far from the construction point . Occasionally, she would stop to observe the distance, something she often does when something bothered her .

"I borrowed the kitchen and made home cook food . "
"What's the special occasion?" She asked .
"Nothing . I've just had sometimes and haven't had home cooked food for a while . " In hindsight, he wanted to cheer her up, but this was the only way he knew how . He doesn't know how to cheer broken hearted condition .
The sibling pairs ate and talked during their lunch break .
"Sis, I may leave in a day or two for a bit . " He wanted to gage her emotional state for a couple more days before setting out on a journey .
"You sure I shouldn't go too?" She asked .
Dealing with the Ghost King Gang may not be easy matter . Since Yu Sha can't use her ability, he didn't want to bring her with . Although he hated to admit, her staying here is much safer as he knew Prince Hue Chi still had men hiding in the shadow protecting her . For this time, he had to rely on Hue Chi's help . The other safest place would be their home . But their parents tried so hard to raise them from dangers that he didn't want them to know . He didn't want all their effort to come to naught .

"Mm . . . I wasn't sure how long it'll be and Su Na isn't here . It's best to have one of us present . "
"Why a few days later and not sooner?" Yu Sha asked . The longer she has to wait, the more impatience she will be .
Yu Ping didn't have an answer .
She glared at Yu Ping and asked, "Are you worry about me?" She was referring to how the news would affect her . "If that is what you're worried about, no need . "
He interrupted, "I bought you a new phone," and took out a box .
Her eyes lit up as she reached for it . "Thanks . "

"I haven't told them that you're back yet . I'll let you decide what to tell them . "
"Mm . . . " She was distracted and proceeded to setup the phone, synced her contacts .
"I think you should go soon . The longer I stayed under house arrest, the more antsy I'll become . "
A few hours later, everyone wrap up work . Yu Sha went back to the suite and spend a little time working on Su Na's empire . Yu Ping made dinner and they enjoyed another meal together before parting .
Late evening, Yu Ping appeared on another balcony, with his back facing the screen door . He stood still for a brief moment before speaking . "I'm not proud relying on someone else . Although I accept your help, doesn't mean I accept your boss . Thanks for watching over her . " Yu Ping vanished after saying what he needed to say .
Inside next to the door, PengXu stood with his back against the wall . The lights were out, except a flickering glow of the TV power button that reflected in his eyes . He concluded Yu Ping most likely left for a mission, an important, dangerous one to have leave Yu Sha unattended while she still was unable to use her ability .
Later in the night, Yu Sha finally put her stuff away . By this time, she knew that Yu Ping had left . One can only keep themselves focused for so long until they had to get up and move around . She walked outside her balcony to observe the stagnant ocean waves . She looked at the half moon and sighed and spoke loudly .
"Even the moon represents how my heart is feeling, half empty . Everyone left and I'm under house arrest . What a sad, lonely life . " She paused and looked around and then continued talking to herself loudly . "Maybe I should jump down and go for a swim . " She hopped on top of the rail looking ready to jump when a figure in dark hooded cloak landed behind her . The very same person who rescued her the night before .
Yu Sha smiled and turned around . "Hehe . . . Got you!"
She jumped backward onto the balcony . "I don't like people lurking in the dark . Can't you just come out normally?"
The figure didn't reply . She had just fool him .
"Have a seat . " Yu Sha offered . "I just need someone to talk to . Sit, sit . "
Reluctant but he complied and took the seat farthest from her .
Yu Sha leaned back onto the rail and studied the figure . "So I guess you ended up with me?"
