A Painful Past and A Destined Love: Chapter 2

It had been only a couple of hours since Guigui had been in Taiwan and she already wanted to leave. The only thing that made her smile was the guy she saw that morning when she was getting into the elevator. She thought he was cute but the sudden thought that she probably would't get the chance to see him again made her smile vanish.
"Guigui, i would like you to meet someone", her mom said as she tapped Guigui on her shoulder to get her attention.
"Who mom?" Guigui asked as she looked up at her mom in curiousity.
"I would like you to meet Mrs. Qiu", her mom said as the woman came through the door, her mom gesturing to her to take a seat.
"Nice to meet you", Guigui said as she got up to shake Mrs. Qiu's hand, "my name is Guigui".
A smile came across Mrs. Qiu's face as she replied, "Wow Mrs. Wu, she is as cute as you said".
Guigui couldn't help but blush and the woman's sudden comment.
"Mom i didn't get to eat lunch, so can i go?" Guigui asked her mom.
"Sure honey, but have it at the restaurant down stairs", her mom replied with a smile and then she turned back to Mrs.Qiu.
Guigui couldn't help but wonder when her mom started caring about her safety.
She passed through the office with all eyes on her, she guessed it was because they never saw the boss' daughter before. She let out a sigh of relieve when she went into the elevator and the door closed. But she felt a bit too relieved to quick because when she looked to the right, she saw two girls and a chubby guy looking at her with expressionless faces, she thought she was going to die before the elevator reached the first floor.

When the elevator had finally reached the first floor, Guigui hurried out of the as it opened and continued to straight outside.
"Omg, these people stare a lot", Guigui said as she started walking down the street, "mom said i was suppose to only go to the restaurant downstairs but i have no intention of eating with a room full of people staring at me".

Back at Jiro and Xiu's apartment...
"Hey dude you coming with me to the club tonight?" Xiu asked as he came out of the bathroom with nothing but a towel around his waste heading into the kitchen.
"I don't know, Xiao Xun is probably going to be there" Jiro said as he put down the weights he had been lifting, shirtless with only a grey sweat pants on, "and i really can't go through the drama with her tonight".
"Dude didn't you break up with her last week?", Xiu asked as he closed the fridge door after taking out a bottle of water and turning it to his head.
"Yeah, i did but she is determined to get me to give her a second chance", Jiro said as he used a towel to dry of the sweat off his face.
"You know you can't stay inside forever just to avoid her", Xiu said as he went inside his room.
"Yeah, your right" Jiro replied as he went towards the bathroom, "I am going to take a shower, and i changed my mind, i going out with you tonight".


"OMG, where am I!" Guigui exclaimed as she stopped i the middle of the street to cover her face with her hand, "I am hungry, tired and have no sense of direction, I just had to leave my purse on mom's table".
As Guigui continued down the street she realized that where she was going was not the place a girl all alone should go. The street had a lot of pubs/clubs, as well as motels, strippers where lined up on the sidewalks. Guigui had never seen such things because of the environment she grew up in. Both men and women walked drunk on the street.When she finally decided to go in the other direction because she knew she wouldn't get help here, she realized she was being followed by 5 guys.
"Hey beautiful, you want to come have a drink with us", one of the guys said as he stepped forward and in return Guigui took one step back.
"You don't have to be frightened", another said, "we won't bite".
That was when Guigui realized her only option was to run. She turned back the other way and started running. She could hear the sound of the other guys running behind her, she knew if she stopped she would be dead.

Jiro parked his Black BMX convertible about a block from the club and walked with Xiu the rest of the way.
"So how are you going to deal with Xiao Xun if she is there?" Xiu asked.
"I don't know, the best thing is to ignore her until she gets the picture", Jiro said but not before letting out a big sigh.

All of a sudden Guigui came around the bend, running with all she had, and ran right passed Jiro and Xiu standing shocked and confused.
"Hey isn't that girl, Guigui?" Xiu asked as the turn around to catch the back of the terrified girl turning at the next bend, "why is she running?".
That was when they saw five boys run pass them going in the same direction.
"Shit!" Jiro exclaimed as he started to run after the boys with Xiu following behind.

Guigui had no idea what she was going to do, she was getting tired and she couldn't run anymore. That was one she realized that she ran into a dead end, as she turned around to try to go the other way she realized the five boys had caught up, breathing heavily, they started corning her in a box.
"You gave us quite a exercise, little girl", one of them said as he came towards her, "luckily we get to have a treat now".
Scared, Guigui shut her eyes tight and fell to the ground.
"Ahh!" she heard one of guys scream, still scared she looked up to see four of the guys being beaten by two guys.
The one that was in front of her did nothing but realize it was not a fight he could win and so ran away and fast as his foot could go, his four injured friends getting up and following.
Still scared Guigui started to cry in her hands.
"Are you ok now?" a voice asked.
Guigui still in tears looked up, only to realize it was the guys she had seen this morning at her mother's company that had caught her eyes.
"My name is Jiro and this is Xiu", the boy said as he pointed to his friend behind him.
Feeling relieved, without realizing it, Guigui got up and ran into Jiro's arms crying without being able to stop. Jiro without even thinking about it rapped his arms around the crying girl soothing her.
"Its ok now", Jiro said as he held the girl tightly to his chest, "I won't let anyone hurt you".
