Chapter 873 - Bonus (1/2)
[This is a BONUS chapter highlighting things that I happened to miss out and a few events that happened before and after Zian and Mian welcomed their daughter]
Nine months ago (A month after Qiang gave birth) ;
Li Mansion. ;
”Dude your dark circle, they don't look good,” Yinhai remarked. ;
”I have two babies and one of them loves crying everyday at three in the morning everyday. I am fortunate to be still alive,” Guang sighed. ;
”Seems like Mia is already troubling you,” Ashton chuckled. ;
”Mia is a sweetheart, she is just thirty days old and yet she is so considerate. She doesn't cry—well, sometimes she does but if you coax her for sometime, she will keep quiet but Yuhan—” Helplessly shaking his head, Guang sighed, ”He stops crying only after Qiang starts coaxing him.” ;
”Seems like Mia and Yuhan have already chosen their favourite parent.” ;
”Isn't that nice? I mean, you can take care of Mia while Qiang and take care of Yuhan. It's more convenient that way,” Ashton remarked. ;
”Not really, I want Qiang to relax so I try not to disturb her at night. But it has been a couple of days, she woke up because Yuhan won't stop crying.” ;
Patting his shoulder, Ashton sighed, ”Good luck mate, you have my respect.” ;
”Mine too, it's not at all easy taking care of one child let alone two at the same time.” ;
”It's not easy but it's very weirdly satisfying as well. I mean, they are my kids so no matter how tiring it is, I have this satisfaction of raising them,” Guang smiled. ;
”You sound so proud and happy,” Yinhai chuckled. ”Anyway, let's talk about the main thing now.” ;
”Yes, what is it? Why are you guys here at this hour?” ;
”It's about Henry—” ;
”The guy who is after Elsa?” When Ashton nodded his head, Guang inquired, ”So did he finally fall in our trap?” ;
”It took some time but yes he did,” Yinhai answered. ;
It had been months since they were trying to get their hands on Henry who had disappeared after abducting Elsa. Following Guang's plan, Ashton had instructed Elsa to contact him and call him over. But unfortunately, nothing worked according to their plan initially. The call would either not go through or it would land up in the voice mail. ;
But after trying continuously for quite some time, Elsa managed to convince him to come and meet her. ;
”That is great, where are we meeting him and when?” Guang inquired. ;
”Tomorrow evening, central park,” Ashton answered. ;
”What are we gonna do with him?” ;
”I promised Elsa that I will hand him over to the police,” Ashton sighed. ;
”We should deal with him in our way,” Yinhai suggested. ;
”I know but I already promised her and I don't wanna break it.” ;
”Alright, let's plan according to that then. Once this Henry guy is behind the bars, we have nothing to worry about.” ;
....
Next day
Qiang's room. ;
”Moving? But why?” Singtan frowned. ;
”Singtan stop shouting, you'll wake the kids up,” Ming shushed him down. ;
Lowering his voice, he complained, ”Why do you have to move out? Everything is fine here and the babies are so small, how are you both going to manage all by yourselves?” ;
”Dad, wasn't this already planned? You told us to stay here until my delivery and it's not like we are shifting tomorrow. Maybe after a couple of months.” Since everything was back on track, Qiang and Guang were considering shifting to their new place to mark a new beginning. ;
”Two months? The babies will be just three months by then, how will you manage?” Singtan remarked. ”Guang will be at work all day, how will you take care of them alone?” ;
”But dad, we can't stay here forever—” ;
Cutting her off, he frowned, ”Why not? This is your house too. You can stay here as long as you want.” ;
”I know that but—” ;
”I think Qiang is right. I would love it and I want her to stay with us but she is married now and has her own family, we need to consider that as well,” Ming explained. ;
Scrunching his brows, Singtan walked out of the room. ”Do whatever you guys want to do, no one listens to me in this house.” ;
”Dad—” ;
”Don't worry about him, I'll talk to him later.” Gently caressing her head, Ming smiled, ”Take some rest.” ;
