Chapter 489 fate has in store (1/2)
Inside a room on the third floor of Fate, the sound of laughter rings as Yue Ling chatted away with Qin Yi and Fei Tao.
They had so much to tell each other as it has been a long time.
Yue Ling sat on one couch as she wipes her tears from laughing too hard at Fei Tao's jokes. She stares at the two people seated across from her and her entire being softens.
In the past, Qin Yi would often visit her to see how she is doing. The middle-aged woman was and still is like a mother figure to her as she lost her parents at a young age.
As for Fei Tao, he is like a younger brother to her. The last time she saw him, he was leaving overseas to settle some family matters. Since he is back in Imperial, it can only mean everything must have been taken care of.
”Yue Ling, if you do not mind, may I ask why you are looking for Chu Li Xiang?”
Qin Yi couldn't help but ask once she had calm down from laughing. When it was said that Fate had returned to the underworld, even she was surprise.
Especially when Yue Ling mentioned that the person she is after is none other than Chu Li Xiang.
However, she (Yue Ling) didn't really say why.
Hearing the middle-aged woman, Fei Tao looks at Yue Ling and he wore an expression of wanting to know the reason too.
He had only returned to Imperial not too long ago and was suddenly given the message for this meeting.
”Something must have happened for you to hold this meeting. No matter what it is, my Black Jade will always be on your side.”
He gives her a stern expression to let her know that he is serious about what he said.
Yue Ling stares at the two people without answering. However, quickly thinking about something, she decides to tell them. After all, they were two of the few people she trusted in the underworld.
However, before she part her lips to speak, her bluish green eyes glance to Anita and Dina who were standing behind Qin Yi.
She didn't say anything, but Qin Yi knew what the expression on her face meant. Her head slightly turn to the side.
”Wait for me in the car.”
Both women glance at one another. They wanted to stay to make sure their boss will be alright, but knowing they cannot go against her words, they gesture a bow and turn to walk out the door.
Even when her two subordinates had left the room, Qin Yi waited until the sound of their footsteps were away in a good distance.
Turning her attention to Yue Ling, she gives the young woman a nod as if to indicate it was safe to speak.
Yue Ling sighs a smile thankfully to the woman for giving them some privacy.
Anita and Dina were individuals Qin Yi trusts wholeheartedly, but that doesn't mean she trusts them. She cannot be sure they will keep this secret since they are unfamiliar to her.
For, only a few people knows.
Taking a deep breath, her right hand slowly moves to the front of her and she place her palm on her stomach. The tiny bump that was once there had already disappeared.
Usually when she touch her stomach, she would feel like the happiest person in the world, but now, she felt empty. It was like a part of her had vanished from the world.
As she thought this, a vaguely remembers the face of little boy in her dream.
A very small smile curls on her lip, but one can see the pain in her eyes.
”He took someone very important to me.”
The space between Fei Tao's brows slightly crease. He couldn't make out what she meant, but Qin Yi did. She saw the way Yue Ling caress her stomach and it was something any woman will understand.
