The tall man is wearing a yellow long sleeve shirt and a black fitted jeans. This person is no other than Vincent's older brother, Vinz Gu. He is the eldest son but unfortunately he does not want to follow his ancestor's chosen path for him. He declared that he will become a doctor at the young age of 10 and won't listen to his parent's plea. He is now one of the top 3 most sought after doctor in the whole world.

"Rae-rae, are you going home already? Why don't you join me for dinner?" he said cheerfully. Vinz is pretty close to my big brother Qian. They are of the same age and gender so getting along is no problem. I on the other hand have this thin almost invisible wall between me and Vinz.

He is a good guy and is very much liked by almost everyone who meets him but he is also very scary when he gets angry at someone. I guess I got somehow traumatized when I saw him shout at Vincent when were young. He was mad about something I and Vincent did to one of his lab rats that he yelled at Vincent in his anger. Vincent took all the blame at that time, and I was thankful and guilty towards Vincent at the same time. From then on, I always treat Vinz formally, so that I won't irritate him. It may sound too shallow but after a long time of being like this, it became a habit of mine every time I see or meet him.

"Big brother Vinz, do you know where Vincent went? He have been absent for a long time and he did not even contact me or his other friends. Is everything alright?" I said to him.

"Don't you know? He went to F country to take care of our grandmother." he said.

"Grandmother Gu? Is she fine now?" I asked worriedly.

"Yep, don't worry. With her favorite grandson as her nurse and this handsome grandson as her doctor, everything will turn out, ok. I actually just arrived, Vincent should be back in no time." he said.

"I see. Thank you so much Big brother Vinz. I will take my leave now, I'm sorry for interrupting you." I said to him respectfully as I bid farewell.

"My little Rae-rae, you are always so cold to this big brother. It breaks my fragile heart." Vinz acted hurt by clutching his chest with his right hand. He looked at me with a saddened expression on his face coupled with watery eyes. Ugh, those eyes! Those green orbs that looks like a jewel crafted by a world known artist.

The Gu bloodline is known for their clear beautiful green eyes. Having those eye color is very rare and fortunately for them, the Gu lineage have that biologically implanted in their genes. It have been known worldwide that all of the Gu male descendants inherit this asset. Every male member of the clan have this eye color, unfortunately they don't have that much male descendants for a very long time. Those green orbs are decreasing as the year pass by. Lucky for them, they don't need to do any DNA tests if ever a bastard suddenly comes and claims the family fortune.

"I'm sorry big brother Vinz, I need to go and finish my class projects first. Maybe next time I can join you and Vincent, we can have dinner then." I said to him with an apologetic tone of voice.

I did not give him the chance to persuade me anymore. I respectfully bent my body and said my farewell before I quickly walked towards my car. Mr. Shin bowed his head to greet me and gently opened the back door for me. I looked back at the handsome man standing by the entrance and waved my hand to say goodbye. I then quickly embarked on the vehicle. Mr. Shin bowed respectfully to Vinz before he went inside the car and drove off the Gu family's Villa.

***************************************************

Vinz watched as Elrae's car disappear in the distance. He then sighed in relief when he saw that the car is already far from their property. He then calmly walked towards his car and tapped three times on the passenger side's tinted window. The window then rolled down revealing a young man with the same eye color as his, staring blankly at the distance.

"Hey lil bro. Did I do something wrong to that little princess of yours? Why is she always on guard everytime she talks to me. I don't bite you know." Vinz said.

"Because your face is scary." Vincent said harshly to his older brother.

"Nonsense! I even look more angelic than you!" Vinz said disapprovingly to his brother.

Vincent did not answer and went back to staring blankly, he is deep in thought.

Vinz could only sigh at his brothers indifference. "Alright then, let me help you out of there. You are still weak. You still need to recuperate for a few more days." Vinz opened the door and helped Vincent slowly and gently get up to his feet. He stumbled for a bit, fortunately Vinz caught him in time and helped him stabilize.

Vinz patiently helped his little brother as they slowly enter the house. The servants greeted them and offered their assistance but Vincent and Vinz declined their offer and continued to climbed up the stairs towards Vincent's room.

Once inside, Vinz ordered the butler to retrieve their baggage inside the car trunk and to send both of their meals upstairs. He also specified what food and refreshments should be prepared and what specific ingredients should he avoided.

The servants followed their young masters instructions and busied themselves. They are really worried about the second young master's condition but they all know their boundaries as servants so they can only do what the young master tells them to do. The second young master was still healthy when he left but now he looks weak and can't even stand properly on his own. They have several questions in their mind but they did not dare voice it out.

Meanwhile, inside Vincent's room. Vinz closed the door shut and locked it up before turning around to look at his younger brother. Vincent is staring intently at his mobile phone and he looks like he is contemplating whether he should turn it on or not.

Vinz swiftly moved towards his brother's bedside and unceremoniously lifted Vincent's left hand and felt his wrist.

"Why not just tell her the truth? Won't it be easier if you just open up and tell her the truth?" Vinz said this as he gently placed his brother's hand down. He then sat on the single sitter sofa chair near the bed.

"No, she cannot know about this. It is better for her to hate me then know the truth so she could move on more quickly." Vincent said stubbornly.

"Lil bro, you are so full of yourself? What made you think that making her angry at you will make any difference? She is your friend and the love of your life. You should just cherish everything you have while--" Vinz throat suddenly felt soar once he thought of the words that he was about to say.

"I am selfish. I am aware of that. I want her to stay by my side but I am also keeping a distance away from her. I want her to love me but I also want her to hate me." Vincent chuckled as he thought of how ridiculous he have become.
