Chapter 403 - A na?ve and an innocent Mei Li (1/2)

Mei Li sighed heavily. They were on their way to Ryn's place. Mei Li was hoping Ryn would change her mind about staying in the hotel. It would be pointless and wasting money when she could just go home and sleep, rather than to spend the time packing her bag and check into a hotel. ;

And Mei Li did not doubt that Ryn was exhausted. From the morning until now she kept moving around. ;On top of that, the pressure she received mentally would make her even more exhausted. She would not be able to hold her eyes open when she saw the bed.

Mei Li was hoping for Ryn to fall asleep immediately when she reached home. About her problem with Jeremy, Mei Li thought of asking the man to give Ryn a little bit of time to calm down by herself.

Ryn turned her head to look at her manager. They were so quiet it became quite awkward again. Mei Li even did not play any song to accompany them during the journey. ;

”Mei Li, what do you have in mind?” Ryn asked suddenly. She wanted to know what the other woman thought about this matter. It would be better not to make any assumptions and discuss what she should do next.

”I think...” Mei Li paused. Her mind was busy stringing a sentence in a way to make Ryn understand without hurting her fragile feeling. ”I think you don't have to stay in a hotel for these couple of days.”

”Why not?” Ryn frowned. Although she was a bit taken back by Mei Li's thought. She thought Mei Li understood why she needed to stay away from the drama.

”I will try to talk with Jeremy and ask him to give you some time to think. I don't think he would be irrational to give you some space. He loves you so much, Ryn and he will do anything for you,” Mei Li said carefully.

”Will he?” Ryn snorted in reply. Recently Jeremy has turned into a very possessive man and he even admitted that he could not control himself. Was Mei Li being too naive of thinking he could leave her alone?

”We won't know if we don't try. Don't worry, Ryn. I will try to make him see the reason. I will also talk with Mika to give you some time off,” Mei Li said bravely. She was worried, to be honest, but running away is not the right way to handle this situation. Everyone should take responsibility. Even Young Master Long has to realize that using force will not make their relationship working. There should be a give and take in everything.

”Hmm...” Ryn was speechless seeing how optimistic her manager was. So naive. So innocent. Ryn was not being pessimistic. She was being realistic.

”Don't worry, Ryn. Everything will be alright,” Mei Li assured her.

*~*~*~*

”They've gone back?” Harry asked weakly.

”Don't worry, my son. She promises to come back when she has time. You should rest,” Mrs. Si said gently, lovingly stroking his hair as if he was still a young boy aged 5 years old.

”Hmm...” Harry nodded and closed his eyes. At first, he thought it was a dream but his mother assured him that Ryn did come to visit her. Imagine, how happy he was when he knew about it. He wished he was clear-headed when she came but alas, he was deep in his fever to even remember what he said and did. Oh, he hoped he did not say anything embarrassing to her.

Mrs. Si stroked him for five more seconds before she stood up and looked around his room. She nodded approvingly seeing how tidy his room was. For sure it has added more points for her son in dear Catherine's mind.

”Once you're feeling better, I will invite her for dinner. Everyone should meet her, don't you think?” she planned.

”Mother...” Harry choked out. His pale face reddened at the thought of his family members seeing Ryn officially. Did this mean her mother accepted his choice? Accepted Ryn?

”Don't you worry? Right now you should focus on being better. Leave everything to me,” Mrs. Si patted her chest confidently. She would help her son wooing Ryn into their family. She had no doubt that dear Catherine would accept her son's sincere heart and would join their happy family. And soon enough, Mrs. Si would hold her first grandchild. Ooh... she could not wait.

Her eyes sparkled at the thought of meeting her first grandchild. She was hoping for a granddaughter. She could pamper and buy so many beautiful dresses for her little granddaughter. Oooh... they could even wear matching dresses when going out. She and her sweet little granddaughter.
