The new guy, Damon King, was holding her hand, guiding her on how to draw the model's features in her life sketch. Zi Mei was surprised at first but suddenly felt shy with his hands covering hers. She tried to pull away but he refused to let go. 

"Stop trying to shake me off, this is how you do it," he said. He guided her hand to complete the face of the model. Then he released her hand. 

"See, that's how you do it," he said smugly. He gave her a wink and turned back to his art. 

Zi Mei stared at her work, the part he helped her complete was perfect. She is still far from having that kind of skill. She glanced at his art that he is now completing. He is really a talented artist, she thought. He had somehow made it look even more realistic in the few minutes after he released her hand. 

"You need to practise more instead of gawping at my work," Damon said as he continued drawing without even looking up at her. She realised she is staring so she looked away and back at her own work. 

In comparison to his drawing, her work looks like an elementary school kid drew it. It's like her drawing is of a stick man while his drawing is the Mona Lisa. She really needs to practise more if she wants to be as good as this Damon King. 

After class, she hurriedly kept her things. She wanted to leave for the next class and hope that she won't be plagued by this Damon King taking the seat next to hers yet again. While she admired his drawing talent, she has decided that she doesn't like his arrogant annoying behaviour. 

In the next class, she intentionally took a seat far in the back, hoping the new guy wouldn't notice her and try to sit next to her. She really doesn't need any complications with yet another guy. She has had enough of men at this moment. She just wants to live a normal life of a college student. 

She noticed Darren coming into the class and waved to him. Having Darren sit next to her will surely be better than having that annoying new guy sit next to her. Also, she needs to determine if Darren is back to his usual self and no longer a demon. 

Darren saw her waving and gave her a slight polite nod but made no move to sit with her. He took a seat in the front row. So, he must really meant it when he texted her about needing 'a break' from her. He is behaving as if they were mere acquaintances. She might as well be resigned to the fact that her friendship with Darren will never be the same again, she thought. 

Fortunately for Zi Mei, the rest of the day passed without Damon King insisting on sitting next to her. When he saw her sitting way in the back row, he had smirked at her and sat at the seat she usually sat in. Zi Mei was relieved that at least she has managed to stop him from annoying her, even if it meant her having to sit far in the back, alone. 

After classes ended, Zi Mei walked to the bus station on her own. She made no attempt to send a message to Darren to walk with him. It was obvious that he was avoiding her and she doesn't feel like engaging with him to ask him what was wrong. 

She was walking forlornly when someone jumped in front of her. 

"Hey, where to?" it was the annoying Damon King. 

"Home, please leave me alone King," she told him. She sidestepped him and walked on.

"Hey, I'm going to this new place that offers this all-you-can-eat ice cream buffet, wanna come along?" he asked, ignoring the fact that she had avoided him. 

"No, go away," she told him curtly. He would not give up. He jumped in front of her again, causing her to stop in her steps. He stared into her eyes.

"You look sad…come on, ice cream will cheer you up," he said, grinning at her. 

Zi Mei glared at him. Why is he so annoying? Can't he take no for an answer?

"I said no, go away," she repeated. She again sidestepped him to walk away but he raised an arm and blocked her.

"A bit of ice cream won't hurt you…come, join me," he said.

What does he want with her anyway? Why is he annoying her right from the beginning? She glared at him coldly. 

"Look, I am not interested in you, please leave me alone," she told him. 

Damon King laughed. A deep rumbling laughter. 

"Don't flatter yourself, I am not interested in you either," he said in between laughter. Zi Mei coloured in embarrassment. 

"Well, then, that's good… so leave me alone!" she retorted. She pushed his arm away and walked away. 

"I was just offering to be a friend," he hollered behind her. 

"Thanks but no thanks King," she shouted back at him. 

When she reached the main road, she found Thorin Loong standing outside his luxurious car, looking for all intent and purposes as if he is waiting for her. She is beginning to feel as if she is having deja vu all over again. 

She walked up to the well dressed CEO who is drawing attention from her college mates, especially the female ones. They were whispering and giggling as they admired his tall frame, his handsome face, his sharp features and his debonair aura. 

"I thought I told you my answer is no," she said softly to him. She didn't want to attract any more attention. 

"I heard you loud and clear but that doesn't mean I can't continue trying," he replied. 

"Ah…that's why you are rushing away…you have a hot date with this guy," Damon King came up to them. He tried to place an arm around Zi Mei's shoulder but she avoided him and stepped away. 

Thorin Loong's eyes widened when he saw Damon King, as if he recognised him, but a shutter came down on his expression immediately. The two men regarded each other coldly. 

"I am Zi Mei's guardian, you are?" Thorin Loong asked Damon. 

"What? Guardian?? NO YOU ARE NOT!" Zi Mei protested. 

Damon smirked and again tried to put his arm around Zi Mei but she again avoided him, ducking out of his arm. 

"I am Zi Mei's classmate and I am protecting her from some perverted predator waiting for her outside college," Damon said. 

"Perverted predator? You have some nerve," Thorin Loong said quietly. He sounded icily angry. 

Damon King was unperturbed. He gave Thorin Loong a confident smirk. 

"Well, you are so much older than her and here you are, stalking her," Damon King said. 

"I am protecting her, what do you know, you…." Thorin started to say but Zi Mei stepped in between of both of them. 

"Hey! Stop it, look I am not related to either one of you, why don't both of you date each other huh?" she told them, glaring at both of them. 

By now, a small group of her college mates have gathered nearby whispering and watching them. At this rate, Zi Mei knows that she will become known as the 'slut' of the college who has two men fighting over her in front of the college. 

"Can both of you please disappear and stop bothering me???" she hissed at them. 

Thorin looked around at the small group gathered around. He gave them a charming smile and waved. 

"Hi everyone, I am Zi Mei's boyf…" Zi Mei didn't give him a chance to finish what he was about to say. She jumped on him and slapped a hand over his mouth.

"Don't you dare!" she hissed at him. 

His hand came up to hold hers and pulled it away from his mouth gently. He kissed it and she felt her pulse suddenly racing. She suddenly realised that she is leaning against his firm body and they are so close together, all he needed to do was to bend down and their lips would touch. She jumped back and pulled her away from his. He grinned at her. 

"Well, then, let me take you home," he offered. 

"Leave her alone, pervert," Damon said, stepping up to stand between Thorin and Zi Mei. 

Thorin glared at him. "You leave my woman alone," he replied. There were gasps from the crowd at the mention of 'my woman'. A few of the college girls were sighing dreamily and some were whispering 'why her?' 'she's not even that pretty?' jealously. 

"Hah! She's not yours!" Damon retorted. He looked at Zi Mei. "Right? Tell him," he egged her. 

Zi Mei is still trying to recover from her racing pulse from being so near Thorin just moments ago. Despite her best intentions, her body is still so attracted to him. It will not be easy to forget him. 

"Lil Zi, come, let me take you home, no hanky panky, I promise," Thorin said cordially, ignoring Damon entirely. He opened the door to the passenger seat of his car. 

"Ignore him, you don't have to go with him at all," Damon said, grabbing on to her arm. 

Zi Mei looked at Damon and then at Thorin. She shook off Damon's hand from her arm. 

"Why don't both of you date each other? You seem to suit each other perfectly!" she told them. 

Zi Mei stalked away from the two men as they gaped at her.. The other people gathered there also gaped at her in surprise.
