140 No Longer On Her Side (1/2)
Hen Qing pondered as she stared at her black phone screen. When she pressed the power button again, Ying Ying's contact popped up on the screen. For the past hours, she's been staring blankly out of space with Ying Ying's contact on her phone, hesitating to call or text. Before she decided on coming back from overseas, she thought of countless ways from hugging and crying to begging Ying Ying for forgiveness. Yet, she has never considered the possibility of coming back to an old dusty place with no traces of liveliness. It was like entering a haunted house and seeing nothing but darkness and spider webs. Dull.
Finally, she decided to send out a text to Ying Ying. She started pacing around the living room while biting on her crystal manicure, waiting for a response.

She practically threw herself on the table when she heard her phone's notification tone. When she saw that it wasn't Ying Ying, she felt utterly disappointed. ”Could mom be mad at me? What should I do? What if she never comes back to me? How will I find out about them? What if she isn't on my side anymore?” She started biting pieces of the nails off and spitting it onto the clean floor she had recently mopped.
Suddenly, the main door to the house slammed open wide and loud; startling Hen Qing greatly that she jumped back a few steps. All Hen Qing could hear were heavy footsteps barging into the house and barely any breathing sounds. The next moment, she saw Ying Ying's breathless figure catching her breath.

”Mommy!” she cheered delightfully and ran to give her a tight hug. Ying Ying didn't have enough time to rest when she received the hug and after a few seconds later, she reciprocated the same actions. She patted Hen Qing's back with a smile on her face.
Afterwards, Hen Qing gave her an official apology for her immature thoughts back then and they reunited happily. While she spoke about her overseas experiences and her great accomplishments, Ying Ying listened patiently and reacted with the warmest smile seeing Hen Qing's happy face. They ate dinner together, and Ying Ying got ready to go back to Yang residence.
”Mom! I'm back now! Why don't you stay with me? We haven't seen each other for years! Don't you think we have a lot to catch up on? Like guys I've dated and who I am chasing after now?” she pushed her bottom lip forward and clung onto Ying Ying's arm acting like a spoiled brat.
”Be good. Mommy can't suddenly take off from work. I need some time before I can come back to stay with you. Okay? You're a big girl now. Mommy will come to see you again soon.” She typed quickly on her phone, wanting to go back before anyone gets worried.
”Then tell me where you're working at now! I'll come to take a peek at you once in a while when your boss isn't looking! I want to see which household you're working for.” She tugged on Ying Ying's sleeve.
