OPEN YOUR MASK, PRINCESS!
Episode 131 LOOKING FOR YOUR FOOTPRINT
Weini was still dissatisfied with the conversation decided by Lau. After several times calling Xiao Jun's bodyguard on the other end of the phone but there was no reply, there was precisely a snapping sound of a man who seemed to have found a fugitive. Weini tried to call back but the man's phone was off.
“Kak Dina.. here kak.” Weini called out to Dina who was still in the studio so fast that Dina ran over to her.
Weini's confused face can be guessed by Dina that the results of the conversation via phone did not end well. “Non, What's up? What is said about Lau until non tense?”
Weini shook her head weakly, she was still staring at the phone screen in disbelief. “Kak, uncle Lau. Kak did something to nolong him.” Weini persuaded Dina to represent him to act, impossible he could leave the filming location when the work had not started yet but Dina still
got a chance to get out of here.
“Heh? Didn't you guys end the call? I don't understand how bad things are going? Om sick?” guess Dina innocently, how can she act if she doesn't know her sitting up.
Weini again shook her head, “She was arrested by people, don't know who. I knew there was a man shouting to catch him. Then... the phone broke.”
Dina was aghast in shock, her strange thoughts were stupefied. “What? Don't-don't om robbed, non we report the police aja.” Dina immediately called the emergency number but was thwarted by Weini.
“Not brother, no need to report. This must have something to do with the Xiao Jun family. Uncle said Xiao Jun has returned to Hong Kong, and it looks like Uncle Lau has been affected. Sis.. or I skip filming, find me a reason to run away. Maybe there's still time to help uncle Lau.” Whine Weini, he was serious with
his intention. During this time he has never skipped work, just once he was absent from the responsibility may be understandable.
Dina held back Weini's move, the worry had shut her wits. “No can do non, work yes work. Once a time non make flexibility discipline, will definitely be addicted to repeat on another occasion.”
Weini fell silent, which Dina said was true. Do not be due to personal problems to mess with the hard work of others who have prepared everything for filming. “Sorry.. I'm khilaf.” Weini said softly, his heart is no longer here but his body must continue here until this work is done.
“Nevent to blame yourself non, sad is normal really. Do not continue to be lamented the important how to find a solution right.” Dina stroked Weini's shoulders, comforting as simple as this as she could.
“Solution? Ah... Brother Dina aja who went there plis, see if uncle Lau is still there?” Weini did not give up, if he could not go then there must be a representative that he sent to complete the mission.
“Nggak can be non, the distance of Bogor to Jakarta not to mention the traffic jam is also sure to get there already late. The criminals run away if they really exist. Why not ask Uncle Haris to check the condition there?” Dina suddenly had a brilliant idea that Weini had not thought of.
A single gleeful smile rose from Weini's lips, and there was a speck of light in the darkness she felt. “Kak Dina. Thankshhh..” he hugged Dina tightly, her manager is really reliable.
Without wasting any time, Weini contacted Haris who was definitely at home and ready to help. Now he hopes Haris' arrival is right to help Lau, however this problem arises because of him, his selfish love without asking for blessing to the Xiao Jun family first.

Grace shut herself in her room all day without eating and refused to be seen by anyone. This form of protest was directed at his father who forced an arranged marriage with a man he had never met.
“Grace, open the door. Daddy's in a minute.” Kao Jing was still trying to seduce Grace to open the door. The waiter who delivered the food went back and forth several times and did not manage to deliver the food for the lady.
“Unless Daddy cancels that crazy plan, I'll definitely open it.” Grace replied, her voice faintly heard from being blocked by the door and soundproof walls. He did not care whether his father heard it or not, his heart was still crap and hot every time he remembered the incident last night.
“Grace, you're starting to grow. Daddy didn't expect daddy's daughter to be big and beautiful.” Kao Jing paid tribute as Grace unwinded after music rehearsal.
“Daddy is weird today? Every day daddy sees Grace but just realized Grace is big?” chirps Grace Cuek, he prefers to berselonjor calm the mind when it is necessary to sleep.
Kao Jing laughed, “You're still a bitch, remember any little daddy message you don't forget your nature as a woman. Later must be the wife of people, do not make shy daddy.”
Grace's forehead shriveled even though with her eyes closed and she kept her forehead soft, her father's words just now were very strange, she felt a bad feeling for the continuation of this conversation. “Daddy talks like I'm getting married. Hah... still a long time daddy, do not think about it.”
“Ehem... if you have met a mate do not delay again. The future of the girl is not from a successful career but from the right husband. Daddy released you for a career just to fill free time until my chosen husband-to-be showed up.” Kao Jing started to get serious, she could not keep soft on her spoiled child.
“Naif dady mind, my happiness will not depend on my husband. I'm still myself, don't want to be restrained.” Grace exclaimed, the unpleasant talk made the relaxed atmosphere that she hoped to collapse. He did not want to linger in front of his father anymore and prepared to leave Kao Jing.
“Wait! I'm not done talking. Don't think just because you were born and raised here, your courtesy to your parents goes along.” Hardik Kao Jin, he began to show his true nature.
Grace was stunned, her steps choked by her father's bluff. For the first time he heard his father speak so loudly to him. Now he stood looking forward to the continued words of Kao Jing.
“Lusa we leave for Hongkong, pack your things! It's time you lead a serious life, rather than every day just playing music with your wild friends.” Kao Jing's orders nearly knocked Grace unconscious.
“Daddy kick me out? oh... I was wrong what?” grace asked still in shock, she knew her father had always been serious about planning. Just as Chen Kho was sent to live in Hong Kong until now, he may not be allowed to return.
“Not sent off, but it's time you got married to the right guy. Your uncle has arranged your match with his son, Li Xiao Jun. You will be the perfect match, the true successor of the Li clan.” Kao Jing's ambition was burning, he had never looked as happy as he was at the moment.
Grace staggered, she grew up in the modern era but still has parents who are stale. “Daddy, it's no time to match children. I can't marry an unknown person, from where daddy sure he's right while daddy never met him, right? sorry I couldn't accept that.” Grace ran up the stairs to her room on the second floor, no matter her father yelling or scolding her.
Flash back done…
Kao Jing thought her daughter had not eaten anything since yesterday when Grace was enjoying her snack stock while grumbling. “Seennya match me, must be the man is ugly, fat, not sold until it must be betrothed. What is good about marriage with a brother? I've never been in love, never been in a date
marriage directly. What's just run away let daddy kapok and cancel this matchmaking?”
Unfortunately Grace's desperate thoughts are just a figment, she knows the power of her father let alone the uncle who has everything. At the end of the world he hides, they will be found. Suddenly he was pessimistic to avoid this match, maybe he had to prepare his heart to accept his destiny.
“Married young... so mistress... hmm..”.
He was unable to think any more than Kao Jing managed to open the door of his room with a spare key. It seems that this fate is inevitable…
